Chapter Eight Talking
"There will be a battle between our Ming Dynasty and Goryeo."
Fang Shiyu said seriously.
"Look, look, even Fang Boy thinks that this Goryeo country should be beaten."
"I really don't know what the civil servants are yelling at meetings all day!"
As soon as he heard Fang Shiyu's suggestion of a war, Lan Yu next to him slapped the table suddenly.
The generals of the Ming Dynasty are not the ones in the late Ming Dynasty. They are now the strongest violent group in the entire East Asian circle.
A big stone can be broken on the chest, a horse can run on the arms, a good fight, and specialize in treating all disobedience!
The military generals like Lan Yu and others have long been very unhappy with the gentle strategies of the civil officials and the grandsons.
Why do you need to coax the other party with a sweet date?
Do you think they are mean?
"Boy Fang, tell me carefully why there must be a battle between the Ming Dynasty and the Goryeo Kingdom?"
"You must know that the Ming Dynasty is strong and powerful, and there are more than 100,000 elite soldiers in Liaodong alone."
"Once the war begins with our Ming Dynasty, the Goryeo Kingdom will risk destruction at any time."
"Why do you think that the Goryeo Congress dared to trick my Ming Dynasty tiger beard for a small Tieling?"
"Who gave them this courage?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked seriously.
What Fang Shiyu said is actually not important, what is important is that there is still reason for the process of making this judgment.
“It’s actually very simple.”
Anyway, there was nothing else. Fang Shiyu moved a mahogany chair from next to him and sat in front of Zhu Yuanzhang. He cleared his throat first, and then opened his conversation.
"You must know that the royal family of the Mongolian Yuan and the royal family of Goryeo have intermarried for generations. Most of the Goryeo monarchs and ministers have the blood of Tartars, so the power close to the Mongolian Yuan within the Goryeo court was dominant."
"Although the Mongolian Yuan was defeated by our current Majesty to the Northern Yuan, as the saying goes, the lean camels are bigger than horses. They still have great power and territory in the north, and they are just separated from the Goryeo Kingdom by an Iron Ridge."
"The reason why Goryeo's monarchs and ministers asked for Tieling from our Ming Dynasty was that their purpose was to connect the Goryeo and the Northern Yuan."
"You must know that in my Ming Dynasty, Goryeo was just an ordinary monarch of a foreign country, and his status was not as good as a rank-level official. However, in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, they were genuine royal relatives."
"If we can help the Northern Yuan to re-turn the Mongolian Yuan, then their Goryeo will be the minister of the dragon and have a further position. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are half of the Mongolian Yuan."
"Goryeo people have never had great ambitions. They are timid and cowardly. They cherish their lives when doing big things, and forget their lives when they see small profits. They always like to fight for a little profit."
"So I can conclude that they will definitely take this risk."
Fang Shiyu talked to the two of them.
"Well, you said it's pretty good."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction.
In fact, he thought so too, so he had already ordered the border troops of Liaodong to gather towards the borders of the Ming Dynasty and Goryeo.
Once there is any trouble in Goryeo, it will immediately destroy the other party.
He also ordered King Zhu Teng of Qin, King Zhu Teng of Jin, and King Zhu Di of Yan to send troops from Shaanxi, Shanxi and Beiping respectively, so as to achieve the goal of restraining the Northern Yuan army and prevent the other party from supporting the Goryeo Kingdom.
"Old Zhu, you said you are a general in charge of the navy. Why are you so concerned about Liaodong?"
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's contemplative appearance, Fang Shiyu asked in confusion.
"The main reason is that there is no war, I'm idle all day."
Zhu Yuanzhang found a reason to fool him.
"I can understand this."
Fang Shiyu nodded seriously, and he very much agreed with Zhu Yuanzhang's statement.
You should know that the value of a military general lies in conquering cities and land.
Moreover, these generals fought for a lifetime, and I am afraid that there will be no war now, which will cause dependence on war.
If you don’t fight for a day, you will feel uncomfortable all over.
"What a pity, how can he fight this battle?"
Fang Shiyu shook her head regretfully.
"Why can't this war be fought? Didn't you just say that Goryeo and my Ming Dynasty must have a battle?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked in confusion.
How did this little bastard speak with a gust of wind and a shower?
“Hmph…”
“The reason is very simple.”
"Even you know that the Goryeo Congress will destroy the country when this war is fought. Don't they Goryeo people know?"
"No matter what era, no matter where, there are smart people everywhere."
"The other party can think of things you can think of."
Fang Shiyu looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with a fool's eyes.
"Boy Fang, don't play the puzzle in front of me. If you have any opinions, please quickly tell me."
Zhu Yuanzhang said anxiously.
You should know that in order to attack Goryeo, I spent enough effort to make a lot of preparations.
If this war cannot be fought, wouldn’t Zhu Yuanzhang have made a big compensation?
"Okay, since you have asked questions so sincerely, I will give you some good advice."
Fang Shiyu poured himself a cup of tea.
To change the course of history, this is the ideal of every time traveler.
But when I traveled to the Ming Dynasty, I had no choice but to go to Nanyang.
This is the most atrocity that makes Fang Shiyu feel.
Now that Lao Zhu and the others want to listen so much, let’s have a good chat with them.
"Do you know that although the forces close to the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the Goryeo court were dominant, they were not without the forces close to our Ming Dynasty."
"This relatively weak force is the Spanish minister among the Goryeo people."
Fang Shiyu took a sip of tea and continued to talk.
"I know what you said, but those Spanish ministers are not successful. Can they be the lords of the Goryeo and the Dongban ministers?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked curiously.
The ministers in Goryeo are divided into East and Westbank.
The Dongban is mainly ministers born in Hanyang, Tokyo, and most of them are their own families and royal nobles.
The Spanish ministers were mainly ministers born in Pyongyang, Xijing, and most of them were local powers and border generals.
However, the Goryeo court was the one-man sect of the ministers of the East Ban.
If they hadn't needed someone to work hard for them, the Minister of the East Pan would have kicked the Spanish ministers and other country-born mud legs out of the court and rolled them back to farm.
"Although they can't make decisions normally, as long as the Eastern ministers dare to send troops to attack our Ming Dynasty, these Spanish ministers can make decisions."
Fang Shiyu said confidently.
"Why is this?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked in confusion.
"Look here."
Fang Shiyu slightly modified the schematic diagram just now and placed a detailed map of the Korean Peninsula in front of the two of them.
And red marks were made in Pyongyang, Seoul and Yalu River on the map.
"Spanish ministers, they mainly live in the Yalu River and Han River areas."
"This place not only has the border with the Mongolian Yuan, but the Tatars even set up the Twin Cities General Administration here, and the Helan Administration to govern this area."
"So the land and fields of the Spanish ministers were occupied by the Tartars, and they had long been angry with these Tartars."
"And coupled with the court dispute, they have been suppressed by the ministers of the East Ban who have Tartar blood."
"Come and tell me, how could they have a good impression of the Mongol Tartars?"
Fang Shiyu pointed to the north of Goryeo and said.
"But even if these Spanish ministers are concerned about our Ming Dynasty, they are still rude and can't make any comments!"
Zhu Yunzhang said with some confusion.
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's inquiry, Fang Shiyu said with a smile.
"You're wrong about this!"
"Because the Spanish ministers and others have always guarded the border and need to fight with the Jurchen bandits in the territory, the military generals in the Goryeo court are all from Spanish ministers."
"It's just that because the Minister of the East Ban strictly guarded them, the Minister of the West Ban never could control all the military power of the Goryeo."
"But as long as the Goryeo Kingdom starts war with our Ming Dynasty, it will definitely be a desperate attempt to do everything the whole country can."
"If they had not sent experienced Spanish ministers to lead their troops at that time, would they send those Eastern Ban ministers who could only talk about military affairs on paper?"
"You put yourself in your shoes and think about it. Once those Western ministers who have long been dissatisfied with all the troops of Goryeo, they choose to use their eggs to strike stones and fight to the death with our Ming Dynasty."
"It's better to choose to return to the court and start to warn the Goryeo Dynasty."
"I'm afraid that as long as they raise their arms and shout, the entire Goryeo will be in name only."
