"Annexation?" Zhu Yijun looked at Liu Dongsheng and his face suddenly darkened. "Annexation in exchange for Daming's troops?
Who do you think Daming is?
Who do you think I am? "
Although annexation was good, it was really not the right time!
First of all, if North Korea was annexed now, it would be impossible to escape. The people of North Korea would think that the King of North Korea used his throne to exchange for Daming's troops, and all their gratitude would be given to Li Xun.
Zhu Yijun would not do this kind of thing. If he did so, even if North Korea was annexed, Daming would lose his righteousness. The image of taking advantage of others was too bad. Daming's good impression in North Korea would probably be ruined, and it would be disadvantageous to Daming's rule.
Secondly, even if North Korea was not annexed now, he could not ignore what Daming said.
North Korea's official language was Chinese, and the people and the royal family were loyal to Daming. This kind of North Korea was what Zhu Yijun wanted.
Finally, this time Zhu Yijun was going to make a big move against the Japanese Empire.
North Korea was a very important part, and Zhu Yijun was also going to borrow the power of North Korea.
After defeating the Japanese pirates, he would station troops in North Korea, and then recruit North Koreans to join the army and open up the official position of Daming to North Korea.
If North Korea opened up the official position to Daming, how many years could North Korea last?
What was the difference between annexation and not annexation?
Now that the annexation was done, should he send troops or officials?
He did not have the energy, so he had to eat one bite at a time. He had to eat steadily, or he would be bloated if he ate voraciously.
Without giving Liu Dongsheng a chance to speak, Zhu Yijun suddenly stood up from the throne and said loudly, "Qi Jiguang!"
Hearing Zhu Yijun calling him, Qi Jiguang quickly stood up and said, "I'm here!"
"Send an order to the Grand Council to dispatch the East Camp to Liaodong. Send an order to the Royal Navy to prepare for battle and be ready to attack at any time.
Not only will I fight this battle, I will also fight it fiercely. "
Qi Jiguang quickly bowed and said, "As you wish!"
Zhu Yijun nodded and looked at Liu Dongsheng. Then he said, "Zhang Jing, send someone to follow Liu Dongsheng to Yizhou. Send a decree to the King of Korea, Li Xun, and ask him to come to Shenyang."
"In short, I want to see him. I want him to see how I will avenge North Korea."
After saying this, Zhu Yijun turned to Liu Dongsheng and said, "Liu Dongsheng, go back and tell the King of Korea and his ministers that Daming is the suzerain of Korea. He is the father of Korea."
"My son was bullied. As a father, I must avenge him."
"Just because I want to avenge my son, I have to take away my son's property?
It doesn't make sense. Tell Li Xun that if I hear that he will send troops in exchange for the Daming, I will cut off his head. "
Liu Dongsheng was not angry at Zhu Yijun's harsh words. Instead, he burst into tears.
Kneeling on the ground, Liu Dongsheng kept kowtowing to Zhu Yijun. Hearing Zhu Yijun's last words, Liu Dongsheng raised his head and said, "I will bring your words to him. Your Majesty is wise. Long live the emperor!"
Hearing Liu Dongsheng's words, Zhu Yijun nodded with satisfaction and said, "Go!
Go back and tell Li Xun that I will not sit by and watch his country fall. "
Zhu Yijun's imperial edict was quickly spread. The envoy of the Daming also followed Liu Dongsheng to Yizhou. The imperial edict also quickly left Shenyang and went straight to the capital.
This time, Zhu Yijun did not mobilize the West Battalion in the capital, but the East Battalion. It was unexpected but reasonable.
The only people who were unhappy were the soldiers of Liaodong and Li Chengliang, so Li Chengliang came to the palace again.
Looking at Li Chengliang's aggrieved old face, Zhu Yijun almost spat out the tea in his mouth.
Seeing Li Chengliang lift his clothes and kneel on the ground, Zhu Yijun's expression instantly became serious.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say!" Li Chengliang knelt on the ground and said seriously.
Zhu Yijun looked at Li Chengliang and nodded, "Go ahead!"
"Although I have done a lot of ridiculous things before, I think my loyalty to the Daming can be proved by the sun and the moon. I don't ask you to be partial to me, but I hope you can give me a fair chance."
"100,000 soldiers of Liaodong are willing to fight for Your Majesty, even if we die!"
"Now the Japanese pirates are invading, and Your Majesty wants to send troops to Korea. The people of Liaodong are eager to fight, but Your Majesty actually mobilizes the East Battalion in the capital to Liaodong. I am not convinced."
"Is it that I can't fight?
Or that the soldiers of Liaodong can't fight? "
"If Your Majesty thinks that I can't fight, please dismiss me. If Your Majesty thinks that the soldiers of Liaodong can't fight, please give them a chance to prove themselves."
"If the soldiers of Liaodong are defeated, I am willing to show my head to you."
Looking at Li Chengliang kneeling on the ground with his head on the ground, Zhu Yijun sighed and thought of his previous life.
Although Li Chengliang did a lot of wrong things, the environment of the Daming at that time was like that. No one could blame Li Chengliang for being greedy.
There was no real evidence to support the enemy. As for the fact that he didn't kill Nurhaci, it was only Zhuge Liang in hindsight. No one knew that Nurhaci would make such a big move at this time.
Li Chengliang's two sons, Li Rusong and Li Rubai, both died in the battle for the Daming. The Li family could be regarded as heroic.
Zhu Yijun walked down from the dragon chair and came to Li Chengliang. He reached out and helped Li Chengliang up. Looking at Li Chengliang's red eyes, Zhu Yijun smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"General, you are loyal to the Emperor and love your country. You dare to fight. How can I not know that?"
"You think that I look down on the Liaodong army. I do look down on the Liaodong army!"
Before Li Chengliang could refute, Zhu Yijun said again, "Do you know how many enemies the Japanese pirates have attacked this time?"
Li Chengliang was stunned and said in a deep voice, "I don't know!"
"As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. You don't know, but I do!"
Zhu Yijun said with a smile, "Now there are more than 200,000 troops in Korea, and there are 100,000 reserve troops on the other side of Tsushima Island."
"This time, the Japanese pirates invaded Korea with 300,000 troops to fight the Daming."
"Of course, the Liaodong army is good at fighting, and you are good at fighting. I know that, but I don't want you to fight recklessly.
My troops are treasures. How can I fight with the Japanese pirates? "
"The other point is that I don't want to beat back the Japanese pirates. This time, I want to wipe out the 300,000 Japanese pirates in Korea, and at least kill the 200,000 Japanese pirates in Korea."
"Are you confident that you can do it?" Zhu Yijun said and looked at Li Chengliang with a smile.
Li Chengliang was stunned and was really surprised. His Majesty's appetite was so big?
After the surprise, Li Chengliang was excited. 200,000 troops, 40 taels per head. How much money would that be?
Li Chengliang felt that he and his subordinates were going to be rich.
It should be known that if his subordinates killed a lot, he would also be rewarded.
"I can't!"
Li Chengliang quickly bowed. Although Li Chengliang was conceited and confident in his subordinates, he was not confident that they could kill so many people.
