Chapter 191 Prepare for war!(1/3)
Li Chengxu said it was swearing. If it were some people who were not firm in their willpower and were confused, they might really think this was a good way.
But here, there is no difference between every word Li Chengxu said, and that fart.
If you hand over the Liaodong Peninsula, what if you defeat the Northern Yuan Dynasty?
So what is the difference between selling the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun in Shijingtang?
What's more, the Ming Dynasty did not need the help of Goryeo to defeat the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
Even if Goryeo joins forces with Beiyuan, it only made the Ming Dynasty feel a little trickier.
However, until the last moment, Zhu Qi would try his best to avoid the Ming Dynasty fighting against Goryeo and the Northern Yuan Dynasty at the same time.
There is no need to make the situation of opening 28 and opening 55.
Zhu Qi was not in a hurry to refute Li Chengxu as soon as possible, but thought about it very seriously, and then said:
"That's what your king really said?"
Li Chengxu nodded seriously, and then said in a decisive tone:
"The Northern Yuan Dynasty is brutal and absurd, and the country's destiny is no longer long, so we, the king, naturally, cannot continue to stand with the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
But our country is different from the country of the Great Ming Dynasty. It is as powerful as a tiger, and it is very powerful to annex the world. Our king is naturally willing to follow the country of the Great Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Qi rolled his eyes in his heart and wanted to ask, "How dare you want Liaodong?"
Of course, what Li Chengxu said was flattering. Zhu Qi understood it in his heart, but he didn't point it out.
Just nodded, it looked very useful, and then said:
"You kings have always seen the situation clearly, but you kings have accepted the enthronement of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
My father was still very angry when he knew about this. Even if you came to tell me about this, I would not know how to reply to you for a while. 5816○.
Why not do this? The envoy will stay in my Liaodong Prefecture for a few days and wait until I report this matter back before making a decision. How about it?"
Li Chengxu naturally knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would probably not agree to the matter of asking for Liaodong.
But King Zhu Qi of Liao did not have the right to make a decision. If he went back to ask Zhu Yuanzhang, he would probably have to cause trouble.
However, this was the order of his own king, and Li Chengxu had no way to violate such orders. He could only nod and ask His Highness the King of Liao to go back and ask.
In the next few days, Li Chengxu stayed alone at the Liao Palace, waiting for the reply.
After waiting for several days, Zhu Qi finally received the order from Zhu Yuanzhang.
Originally, he thought Zhu Yuanzhang was arranging personnel to defend, but unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang did not retreat and took the initiative to attack.
One copy of the imperial edict is for Zhu Qi, the other copy is for the King of Goryeo.
The imperial edict to Zhu Qi was very simple, which was to expel Goryeo's envoys and then prepare for war.
Soldiers were recruited in Liaoyang, and elite troops have been drawn to Liaodong to be sent.
It is estimated that the earliest batch will be able to arrive in Liaodong within one month, etc.
Another one is for the King of Goryeo.
And this imperial edict to King Goryeo would not be so polite.
First, he criticized the treason of King Goryeo for his treason. Two years ago, he came to my Ming Dynasty to ask for the princess, with a humble attitude.
My Emperor of Ming Dynasty also awarded you the title of King Goryeo, but now you will defect to the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
It’s shameless to ask me for Liaodong in Ming Dynasty.
Don’t think about Liaodong or something. Not only will Liaodong not give you Goryeo, but you Goryeo also want to return Tieling to our Ming Dynasty!
Speaking of Tieling, it was called the Shuangcheng General Administration during the Yuan Dynasty, and Li Chenggui was born in this place.
However, Tieling was the territory of our Central Plains during the Western Han Dynasty.
Later, the weak and large areas of northern territory in the Northern Song Dynasty were lost to the barbarians. During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, the Tieling position was still under the control of Goryeo.
Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to annex the world and unify China's emperor.
Naturally, Tieling would not continue to be under Goryeo's control. Zhu Yuanzhang had already had the plan and goal of Tieling, but he had never had the right opportunity.
Now that I see Goryeo so ignorant, there is no need to talk nonsense.
After seeing the imperial edict, Zhu Qi also breathed a sigh of relief, saying that he was worthy of being Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the ages!
I was still worried about not wanting to go to war with Goryeo and Beiyuan, Zhu Yuanzhang had waved his hand and said nothing about him. He would beat you up before he could.
This is not just a kind of domineering attitude, but also a kind of self-confidence.
When Zhu Qi saw that Zhu Yuanzhang had made such a statement, he became tough, so he didn't have to talk to Goryeo anymore.
He took the imperial edict and handed it over to Li Chengxu, and said with a stern face:
"Li Chengxu, what did I say before?
Can you ask for this Liaodong at will?
This king reported to the emperor. The emperor's intention is not only to ask you not to make any more ideas about Liaodong, but also to return Tieling to our Ming Dynasty immediately.
I know you are just a historical minister and don’t have this right. You bring this imperial edict to you, King Goryeo, and now come and apologize quickly. Maybe it’s still time to do it.”
After Zhu Qi finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back and prepared to see him off.
Li Chengxu was also confused. Unexpectedly, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was so tough and was about to break up with Goryeo without saying a word.
Shouldn’t this art of diplomacy be dealing with each other?
This is because Li Chengxu didn't know much about the Ming Dynasty. From Zhu Yuanzhang to Emperor Chongzhen's death in the Ming Dynasty, for more than 200 years, every emperor had no soft-boy except calling the emperor.
It's always the case for the outside world, either don't talk nonsense or just do it for me.
The attitude of the Ming Dynasty was already very tough, so Zhu Qi would naturally follow Zhu Yuanzhang's wishes.
After Li Chengxu was expelled, he was not feeling annoyed, after all, this was also within his expectations.
However, when Li Chengxu was planning to go back, Zhu Qi still had a serious talk with him.
It's not anything else, just say that he and Li Chengxu are still very close. If Goryeo dares to start a war against the Ming Dynasty, the result can be imagined.
The King of Goryeo must not have lived long. He did not want to see a capable person like Li Xu die in such a war like this.
Then, Zhu Qi mentioned Li Chenggui intentionally or unintentionally and praised Li Chenggui.
It is said that Li Chenggui is as a king, and he is inferior to a mediocre person, and being a general is indeed inferior.
He also said that his father, Zhu Yuanzhang, had always told him about Li Chenggui.
It is said that this man is quite capable. If he had become the King of Goryeo, the national strength of Goryeo would definitely not be as weak as it is now.
Anyway, he just grabbed Li Chenggui and praised him, and Zhu Qi knew about Li Chenggui's ability.
in the country, now there are only one person and more than ten thousand people.
If Li Chenggui had no intention of rebelling, Zhu Qi would definitely not believe it.
As Li Chenggui's cousin, Li Chengxu will naturally know some inside information that he has suggested so clearly. Zhu Qi believes that Li Chengxu will definitely tell Li Chenggui about this after he returns.
In other words, this is equivalent to the Ming Dynasty giving Li Chenggui a guarantee.
If Li Chenggui can stand up and pull this foolish King of Goryeo off the horse, the Ming Dynasty is willing to recognize him as the new King of Goryeo.
Zhu Qi didn't believe that Li Chenggui was really not moved, but this seed was just planted. What kind of fruit can be borne in the end, so he could only wait quietly.
But the battle with Goryeo is inevitable.
Zhu Qi was also ready to prepare for the war with all his might, but there was another new problem, that is, he had no generals under his command!
Although Zhu Yuanzhang sent troops and asked Zhu Qi to prepare for war, the imperial edict did not say that he would send famous generals to lead the army.
This is not because Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't want to, but because there is really no general to be sent out under his command.
Feng Sheng, Fu Youde and others all confronted the Northern Yuan Dynasty on the North Front, while Xu Da confronted the troops on the Western Front with King Liang.
As for Lan Yu's words, after just experiencing the Hu Weiyong incident, Zhu Yuanzhang obviously did not want to continue to use Lan Yu so quickly to fight.
As for other second-tier generals, Zhu Yuanzhang probably felt that the level of those generals was not much higher than that of Zhu Qi.
Instead of using the second-tier generals, it is better to use your son as the leading future to fight against Goryeo's attack.
After Zhu Qi thought of this, he was also amused and crying.
It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang has really misunderstood his image a lot in his heart. He is obviously a prince who is taking advantage of the troubled waters.
Unexpectedly, in everyone's eyes, he had already become His Highness, who was good at fighting.
However, although the famous generals were not sent here, some non-famous generals still came.
For example, General Ma Yun, who had previously cooperated with Zhu Qi, had a side-by-side experience, and now commanded the Ming Navy.
Zhu Yuanzhang obviously knew that the navy was bound to fight against Goryeo, so he sent Jack Ma to support Zhu Qi.
This is definitely good news for Zhu Qi. If there is Jack Ma, then the Liaohe section of the northern line can be left to Jack Ma to defend.
Jack Ma is a famous guard.
In history, Jack Ma was famous for guarding Liaodong.
