Chapter 301 The Ming army is dissatisfied and invincible

Chapter 301 The Ming army is not satisfied with their pay, but is invincible if they are fully paid.

After traveling along the Han River, King Lee Min of Goryeo arrived in Incheon on just the second day.

Then he went straight to the post house and met with General Jiang Sheng of the Ming Dynasty.

Jiang Sheng wears the official robe of the Ming Dynasty from the first rank, which is the official title of the Ming Dynasty governor in Goryeo.

Holding the imperial edict of the Emperor of Heaven in his hand, he strode out of the post house.

When Li Yan saw this, he bowed his head and saluted.

"King Li Yin of Goryeo meets with the Emperor of Heaven!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

What Li Yan worshiped was not Jiang Sheng, but the imperial edict in Jiang Sheng's hands and the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty represented by the imperial edict.

Jiang Sheng said.

Although the King of Goryeo was only a county king in terms of title, because Goryeo had always been respectful to the Ming Dynasty, he was allowed to use the princely etiquette system as an exception.

Now, no one dares to talk nonsense!

"We, the whole country, deeply regret the wrong things we did back then."

Moreover, Jiang Sheng saw that these Goryeo people had long been oppressed to the point of numbness. Instead of starving to death in Goryeo, it would be better to board a ship bound for the Ming Dynasty and go to Nanyang to take a chance on the opportunity to change their destiny.

The civil and military officials of the entire Goryeo Dynasty felt a little embarrassed when he looked at them.

They heard the overtones.

Should the powerful people of Goryeo be exploited or should they be exploited?

As the future governor-general of Korea, Jiang Sheng felt a heavy responsibility and must transport all these poor Korean people to Nanyang!

Very lively!

After Jiang Sheng got off the boat, he was directly greeted by a group of Goryeo officials and headed towards the Goryeo Palace.

It was not until noon the next day that the fleet arrived at the dock outside Seoul.

Li Yan stood up and asked, "I wonder if the emperor has sent a general to Goryeo, but do you have any instructions?"

The Ming Dynasty's 10,000-strong army was just outside Seoul.

Gyeongbokgung Palace was built very grandly, and it was built entirely in accordance with the princely etiquette of the Ming Dynasty.

When Li Yan went from Seoul to Incheon, he traveled very quickly because he was following the current.

Those eyes were full of righteousness and swept over the faces of all the civil and military officials in Korea. Their eyes were so sharp that they seemed to be able to see the deepest part of a person's heart.

After being a vassal for more than two hundred years, Goryeo's mentality towards the Ming Dynasty was very complicated.

After Jiang Sheng heard this, he nodded and said: "Okay, I will follow the king's arrangement!"

It didn't take long for Jiang Sheng and the others to cross the entire Seoul and arrived at Gyeongbokgung Palace, the royal palace of Goryeo!

As soon as the ship came into view, gongs and drums began to roar and firecrackers went off on the pier.

But on the streets, there are countless Korean people who are naked and hungry.

Anyway, for them, no matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than the current situation. Jiang Sheng feels that he is really a good person!

He knew that all this was given to him by Da Ming behind him!

"How about you follow me to the capital, General?"

However, Jiang Sheng faced the quite decent Goryeo Palace.

On both sides of the royal road, two rows of chamberlains and many maids stood respectfully.

I was afraid that if I didn't say anything right, I would really call Master Ming.

Including ceremonial guards, royal palaces, crown robes, altars, etc., all can be used at the prince level.

When the Japanese invaders invaded Korea, if the Ming Dynasty had not mobilized the border troops from Liaodong Town to fight against the Japanese, Goryeo would have been destroyed by now.

"My king is ready to welcome the general's banquet. I, the whole country, are eager to see the soldiers of tomorrow!"

But he didn't feel the tension and oppression he felt when facing the Chengtian Palace Imperial City.

But it is really not difficult to establish another King of Goryeo!

"Goryeo rebelled against the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and even sent troops to help the Qing Dynasty attack the Ming Dynasty. Do the people in Goryeo Kingdom understand what etiquette and integrity are? Do they still have the heart to repay their kindness?!"

It can be said that the Ming army was not satisfied with its pay but was invincible if it was fully paid.

They were deeply impressed by the strength of the Wanli Ming Army.

Facing the courtesy of the King of Korea, although Jiang Sheng's face showed no expression, he was still quite excited in his heart.

Faced with Jiang Sheng's rebuke, King Li Yin of Goryeo finally stood up and spoke.

Li Yan gave up his position and let Jiang Sheng sit at the top, while Jiang Sheng looked majestic at this time.

Faced with Jiang Sheng's rebuke, no one in the civil and military dynasties of Goryeo dared to stand up and refute.

That's right, in addition to the task of making Goryeo surrender, Jiang Sheng also had to transfer Goryeo's population to Nanyang to fill the vacancy of Nanyang's Chinese population.

The team walked on the streets of Seoul. Wherever they passed, what impressed Jiang Sheng the most was not the tall gated courtyards in Seoul.

Jiang Sheng, however, didn't feel nervous at all. He cleared his throat and his face instantly became stern.

Because to him, no matter how majestic the Goryeo Palace in front of him was, it was just a cold building.

Although the Koreans are not Han Chinese, their degree of Chineseization is not low.

"No gift!"

"The Ming Dynasty's special envoy Jiang Sheng has met the King of Korea!" Jiang Sheng returned the courtesy.

The King of Ming Dynasty came to teach the vassal states of Goryeo what to do, which is the same as directly threatening to send troops to attack Goryeo.

Li Yan stood up and bowed his hands again.

According to records from Japanese missionaries, during a battle, a Ming army sergeant rode into the Japanese gunfire formation that was emptying bullets, seized the Japanese flag, looked around, and then turned the horse's head and body with the flag.

And yet.

Once force is used, it is unrealistic to directly annex Goryeo due to Ming Dynasty's huge influence on Goryeo.

"Please also ask the general to go to the Emperor and give me, the people of Korea, a chance to atone for their sins!"

At a glance, the current Gyeongbokgung Palace is much more respectable than the dilapidated Forbidden City of Yingtianfu and the Imperial City of Chengtianfu on Yizhou Island.

It only took one day to arrive in Incheon from Seoul.

The civil and military ministers of Goryeo gathered together, standing in two groups, and their eyes focused on Jiang Sheng.

He was just a senior military officer of the Ming Dynasty. Although he had a high status, there were still many people who were weighing on him. But now he could make the King of Goryeo salute him.

"King Li Zhen of Goryeo has met the general of Shangguo!"

Because the Ming Dynasty’s kindness to Korea for its reconstruction was not just talk.

In the past, Chengtianfu Imperial City represented the sacred imperial power of Zhu Kezang!

The two cannot be confused!

"Does Goryeo need to be taught by the King of Ming Dynasty to teach Goryeo and its vassal states what to do if they do things like this?!"

Although the living conditions of the Korean people in Seoul are better than those in Incheon, they are not much better.

Jiang Sheng asked sharply, his voice full of coldness and dignity.

When it came time to return, because the fleet was traveling against the current, the speed was not that fast.

Surrounded by a group of people, Jiang Sheng strode into Gyeongbokgung Palace holding Zhu Kezang's imperial edict.

Now that the familiar power is back, they are scared.

At this moment, the atmosphere in Gyeongbokgung Palace suddenly became tense!

Jiang Sheng asked coldly.

"Before I leave, General, the Emperor asked me to ask everyone in the country, does anyone still remember the Ming Dynasty's kindness to Korea for more than two hundred years? Do you still remember the kindness that Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty showed to Korea?"

"Don't use weapons violently!"

"Koryeo, as the first vassal of the Ming Dynasty, now realizes his mistake and just wants a chance to atone for his sins!"

"General, please grant me your permission!"

After Li Yan finished speaking, he stood up and bowed his head towards Jiang Sheng.
Chapter completed!
