The defeated soldiers fled into North Korea retreated all the way south, allowing the pursuers to seize Seoul without any effort.

At this time, more than 100,000 defeated soldiers fled to Jeolla Do and Gyeongsang Do in southern Korea, waiting for the Tokugawa Shogunate to send a ship to pick it up.

Gao Huan gathered his troops in Seoul and transferred the navy to Jeju Island to prepare to intercept Japanese military ships.

On Jeju Island, twenty dry army gunships, half of which were moored, and the other ten gunships shuttled through the strait between North Korea and Japan and bombarded Tsushima Island.

The Si-Holic fleet returned to the Dutch stronghold in Jeolladao, to rest and prepare to expel the Ganchao fleet and escort the defeated troops to Japan.

At this time, Gao Huan was sitting in the middle hall at the residence of the King of Joseon in Seoul. The King of Joseon Lee Seo led a group of North Korean officials to ask for a meeting.

"Your Majesty, when you meet His Majesty, do you know what to do!" a Korean minister whispered.

Li Jing nodded, "I know, I am like a wandering son crying with joy when he sees his father!"

Many North Korean officials felt a little relieved when they heard the words. Whether North Korea can restore its country depends on today.

At this time, Yang Yan came out, "Come in!"

When Li Jing and others heard the words, they quickly got up, lifted their hem, crossed the threshold, and entered the hall.

"My King Lee Se, please pay homage to the king and father! Woo woo..." Lee Se entered the hall and saw Gao Huan sitting upright, and immediately led the ministers to bow down. Everyone burst into tears and burst into tears. I don't know if it was happy or sad.

After the Japanese soldiers and Qing troops retreated, the Korean rebels hidden in the mountains made a comeback and recovered many prefectures and counties. However, if North Korea wants to restore the country, it still depends on the expression of Gan Chao.

Gao Huan didn't expect them to cry when they came in, and couldn't help but ask, "You guys, why is this?"

Li Xiu raised his head and burst into tears, "Your Majesty! North Korea was forced to interfere with slaves. Today I will return to my parents' arms. I am so happy!"

Gao Huan swelled his cheeks, understanding the meaning of the Korean monarch and ministers, and knew that they wanted to be a dog for the Korean dynasty, but Gao Huan had not decided yet whether to leave North Korea.

From a historical perspective, colonization has many Tsarist Russian models, British models, and future American models.

Each of these models has its advantages and disadvantages. Gao Huan does not want to imitate the West in full, but wants to follow Chinese characteristics. Therefore, Gao Huan is still thinking about how to deal with the specific situation of vassals and overseas expansion.

Gao Huan didn't like the feeling of being kidnapped, and said in a deep voice: "I already know your feelings."

Li Xiu hurriedly thanked him, "Your Majesty is like a recreation. North Korea will be loyal to his great cause for generations, and serve His Majesty like his son!"

Gao Huan felt that his words were not convincing. The Ming Dynasty had saved North Korea. The monarchs and ministers of North Korea said the same words, but they did not make the decision.

However, this cannot be blamed entirely on North Korea. They have struggled against the Qing army and the others. Unfortunately, it is really useless and cannot be beaten.

Gao Huan smiled, comforted Li Xiu and others for a few words, and then sent everyone away.

In the garden of the Korean Royal Palace, Gao Huan stood in the pavilion with his hands behind his back, thinking about how to establish a vassal system for the Gan Dynasty.

After defeating the Qing Dynasty, the Gan Dynasty had already completed the unification of the traditional sphere of influence of the Central Plains dynasty, and the Gan Dynasty's energy also shifted from unifying the world to expanding the influence of the Gan Dynasty outward.

"Your Majesty, what are you thinking?" Du Yinxi asked.

Gao Huan retracted his thoughts and said with a smile: "I am thinking about how to restore the vassals of great efforts and establish a new vassal system!"

Du Yinxi said: "I don't know what problems Your Majesty has encountered. Maybe I can share your worries."

Gao Huan laughed and said, "There is indeed a problem! I am thinking that I can use force to force many vassals to surrender, but they may not truly submit. I hope to find a way to make these vassals psychologically agree with the tribute system."

The tribute relationship established by Ganchao is, in itself, an unequal relationship.

In this system, Gan Chao is high and superior, he is the father, and other vassals are sons.

In order to make these vassals willing to be sons, in addition to the advanced and powerful Ganchao, Ganchao also made generous moves, which allowed the sons to gain benefits from the tribute.

This method of scattering coins in exchange for tribute from various countries was sometimes a burden for the Central Plains dynasty, and Gao Huan didn't want to continue scattering coins.

Now Gao Huan hopes to import an ideology into the vassal states, just like the later Americans, exporting lard and cooking.

As long as the United States says that your country is not enough to cook lard and dish, many people will jump out of this country to oppose their own country. How can you not cook lard and dish?

This is the power of the input of the will form.

Now Gao Huan is thinking about whether he has a thought that after exporting to the outside world, he will psychologically think that Da Gan is his father. If he has not obtained the Gan Dynasty enthronement, he will not be qualified to rule the place.

If the people of vassal states accept this idea, then the domestic rule cannot be granted the canonization of the Gan Dynasty and will not be able to rule the people of their own country.

This requires Gao Huan to establish a system of thought to determine that the big knight must be the sect leader.

Du Yinxi listened to Gao Huan's words, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I think this answer has been there before!"

Gao Huan raised his eyebrows, "Oh, tell me!"

Du Yinxi said: "Only the emperor is ordered by heaven, and the world is ordered by the emperor! There is only one emperor in the whole world, and the emperor is subject to the will of heaven to rule the world. In addition to the emperor, all counties and counties also have foreign countries, and they must obtain the title of the emperor to have the legitimacy of rule! All the kings under the heavens are kings, and the shores of the land are kings and ministers! If many vassals can accept such thoughts, then they will psychologically regard the great calamity as the sect leader."

Gao Huan smiled and said, "This is Dong Zhongshu's trick!"

Du Yinxi said: "Your Majesty asked me, I think this method may work. After all, he created the Han Dynasty and also divided the Huns!"

Gao Huan nodded slightly. If this set of ideas could be spread as an ideology, it would undoubtedly be beneficial for big efforts.

However, the times are developing, and the system of military power and divinely granted will definitely not be able to play for long.

Gao Huan thought about it and felt that Du Yinxi's opinion could indeed be considered, so that he could determine the legitimacy of the Ganchao vassal system and establish the political correctness of this era.

Just like cooking dishes and lard, how can you not regard Dagan as the sect leader, and how can you rule us without being enfeoffed by the emperor?

Gao Huan thinks this is still very interesting in a short period of time, but new things must be added later.

Any system and idea has a lifespan and needs development and change. Gao Huan smiled and said, "I'm considering it!"

While the two were discussing, Yang Yan suddenly hurried behind him and saluted: "Your Majesty, the information sent by Jeollado, the Japanese soldiers and the remaining Qing troops were preparing to evacuate. The Tokugawa Shogunate will send ships to pick them up to return to Japan within one month."
