Chapter 6 The Peninsula Crisis (2))
Chapter 6 Peninsula Crisis (2))
"Emperor, North Korea is different from Mongolia. They have no blood relationship with the Later Jin Dynasty. Even if Huang Taiji occupied North Korea, if he forcibly incorporated into North Korea, he might be in a state of anxiety." Sun Chengzong said.
"Huang Taiji is not a stupid person. With him, there is a Fan Wencheng around him. He will not do such stupid things." A hero was unable to enter the Central Plains until his death, but his successor did it. Why? No, because a man who is eager for quick success and instant benefits cannot become a hero, and can only become a stepping stone for others' success.
Huang Taiji had two choices, killing all the Koreans who resisted him. The second was to establish a puppet regime. The political parties in Korea were divided into north and south, and the southern faction was headed by the current King of Korea, Li Nei. The northern faction was greatly reduced after Gwanghae Jun Lee Hun was exiled to Qiaotong Island. After Li Nei succeeded to the throne, he continued to suppress it, and his strength was even worse. Gwanghae Jun Lee Hun was jealous of Li Nei for taking his throne. Now he has almost become a lonely man. If Huang Taiji wants to choose a puppet, it is probably Li Hun.
Various analyses and ideas continued to emerge in Zhu Yinglong's mind, whether it is association or guessing, in short, there is one thing that is, the situation is quite unfavorable to him.
"Emperor, Korea was beaten by the Later Jin Dynasty at the beginning of the year and had no power to fight back. This time Huang Taiji came again. North Korea's military strength was weak, and the old ministers were worried that they would not even last for a month." Sun Chengzong was also worried. He did not expect that the monarch and ministers would enter the new year under such a mood.
"Yes, the Later Jin Dynasty is not Japan. It is impossible for Korea to have a land-based Li Sun-chen, and he does not have an advantage in military strength. No matter how hard he fights, he will lose, unless Li Ju has the courage to decisively abandon Pyongyang and the north, and shrinks his troops to defend Seoul, and maybe there will be a glimmer of opportunity!" Zhu Yinglong sighed, and in fact, he asked himself that if he faced such a situation, he would not be able to do it. Will there be someone who abandoned the country and loyal to him? First of all, the morale of the army will have a great impact. Maybe he will be taken over by others at that time, and it will be fast and stable. There will be no general in Korea. Even if the decision is right, the war will probably still be lost in the end.
"Emperor, the court does not have a large army, but North Korea has it!" Sun Chengzong suddenly said with joy in his eyes.
"What do you mean by my dear?" Zhu Yinglong was also confused by Sun Chengzong's delight.
"Your Majesty, if the emperor hadn't reminded the old minister just now, I wouldn't have thought of it!" Sun Chengzong said excitedly with joy.
"I reminded you?" Zhu Yinglong still couldn't understand what Sun Chengzong meant.
"Your Majesty, what do you think the court will send generals, and how about North Korea sending troops?"
Zhu Yinglong was stunned for a moment, then said happily: "It's amazing, why didn't I expect it!"
"If the Emperor hadn't said that there would be no Li Sun-sin on the land in North Korea, the old minister would not have thought of such a way even if he wanted to break his head. In fact, this is all the emperor, you reminded the old minister."
"I'm humble. What I just said is unconscious. This is all my mind is fast, but I'm still young!" After the problem was solved, Zhu Yinglong suddenly felt smooth.
"But Master, the generals who are sent to North Korea must not be too bad. They should try their best to choose those who are capable and be mentally prepared to defeat the war. Both of these are indispensable." After laughing, Sun Chengzong said seriously.
Zhu Yinglong nodded repeatedly and said, "No, good, North Korea's defeat is determined. Even if it can last for a while, it will probably be useless. Therefore, the psychological preparation for losing is necessary. However, this psychological preparation can only be understood by both you and I. The king and the minister. No matter who chooses to go to North Korea, you and I cannot miss a word."
Sun Chengzong said in his heart that the emperor could think of his front so quickly, and he was indeed a genius. In fact, he didn't know that this was just a precipitation of experience hundreds of years later. Zhu Yinglong just copied it on the basis of learning. Of course, this also requires a smart head. At least Zhu Yinglong thought he was not a fool.
In fact, North Korea still has the ability to fight. Previously, Zhu Yinglong secretly sent nearly 500 generals to North Korea to help North Korea secretly train its army. This army has become North Korea's most elite army. North Korea's King Lee Nei attached great importance to it. The weapons and equipment bought from the Ming Dynasty were basically used on this army. It can be said that except for Li Nei's 3,000 imperial guards, no North Korea is stronger than it. In this army, the training instructors sent by ordinary lieutenants North Korea and the Ming Dynasty each account for half. Although North Korea itself accounts for two-thirds, its real power is captured in the hands of the court. Once the court sends aid commander generals, the control of such an army will soon be controlled by the court. With these 20,000 people, Huang Taiji is destined to fall a big fall under the city of Seoul, although it does not affect the overall situation.
When going to Korea to command wars, you can't be careless. More than 30 years have passed since the Battle of Korea in Wanli. Li Chengliang and his son have long passed away. Although many of the descendants of the Li family are still active in the army, most of them are not capable of taking responsibility. Generals entering the country must be familiar with Korea and can only choose from the Liaodong army. The main general, Zhu Yinglong, chose Zu Dashou at a glance. Zu Dashou's grandfather Zu Chengxun participated in the Korean War. The Zu family was all in Liaodong and were familiar with that land. Under the influence of Yuan Chonghuan, a famous general defending the city, although they cannot be better than their ambitions, they can always learn something. In addition, Zu Dashou is also a famous veteran in Liaodong, and his identity and ability are not low. Sending such generals to the past can at least give Li a little calmness and courage.
Zhu Yinglong understood more clearly that the longer the North Korean fights, the more beneficial it is for him, otherwise he would not hesitate to send troops. In fact, it is a way to hold Huang Taiji on the Korean battlefield. The key is that North Korea is too weak. If Chahar Mongolia listens to it, then there will be no problem for the court to destroy the Later Jin first and then go south. Now the most important thing is to use the most clever and limited method to turn passive into initiative. Once North Korea quickly falls into Huang Taiji's hands, unless he jumps into the war, in order to be corrupt and corrupt, he can only watch Huang Taiji swallow Mongolia step by step and become a truly powerful country. Then he will regret it. Although it will not be called a civil war in this time and space, no matter how Zhu Yinglong, a soul who has come from three hundred years later, always thinks that this is a "civil war".
