Chapter 609 Secret Guard(1/2)
Lin Qingye's shout made Li Zhu unable to sit still. He stood on the carriage with cold sweat on his face.
"Impossible, this is a treacherous trick of the Ming Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty will never fail, don't be fooled!"
A person suddenly screamed hysterically. It was none other than the most famous pro-Qing faction in the court and the current Prime Minister of North Korea, Kim Zidian.
He shouted loudly, as if he was refuting Lin Qingye's rumors, and also as if he was convincing himself.
For him, Jianlu's failure meant the end of him and his entire family.
By this time, it was already known that Jiannu and Li Zong had failed, and the Korean officials no longer supported him.
Some close friends and close friends looked at him coldly.
Suddenly, huge cheers came from the Ming army camp, as if something worthy of celebration had happened.
Then I saw four Ming soldiers dragging a tied-up man out, although they were far away and could not see his face clearly.
But Liu Liu's head and the braid on the back of his head clearly indicate his identity.
It was not a Ming army, but a Jianlu, but his armor had been stripped off, so it was difficult to determine his identity for a while.
While dragging, Jiannu kept shouting incomprehensible bird songs.
As the distance got closer, some North Korean officials who often had contact with Ye Bilong and King Li Zong of North Korea had already recognized this person.
He was none other than Ye Bilong, the highest official of Jiannu stationed in North Korea.
Ye Bilong rarely suffered defeats, but he did not expect that he would be captured alive by the Ming army today.
Ye Bilong has been captured alive. You can imagine the fate of the elite Huang Banners and Mongolian Eight Banners who followed him. They are all members of Huang Taiji...
"How could it be possible? How could it be possible? This is impossible, this is not true..."
North Korea’s Prime Minister Jin Zidian and North Korea’s King Li Zong immediately collapsed...
If Bilong was arrested, then the choices they made before were all wrong. Do they have to make a new choice?
Ming Dynasty has always been very good to North Korea. They have always convinced people with virtue, so they should forgive him this time, right?
All the North Korean ministers were shocked and frightened, and Jin Zidian was trembling like chaff...
Over the years, a general like Ye Bilong has never been captured alive by the Confederate Army. Today is the first time.
"Jiannu has repeatedly offended the heavenly soldiers, and his crimes are extremely heinous. Today, he has committed many crimes. On the order of the Minister of War of the Ming Dynasty, he will be executed!"
The executioner of the Ming Dynasty suddenly slashed with his sword, and with a click, blood suddenly flew out, and Yi Bilong's head fell down, rolling on the ground.
Li Zhu's face turned pale and his whole body started to tremble...
The execution of the slave-building minister Ye Bilong immediately made the blood boil in the hearts of the Ming army soldiers, and a burst of cheers broke out.
Almost at the same time, war drums were beaten vigorously, and hundreds of dragon flags were vigorously waved.
"Dong dong dong dong..."
"Swipe, swipe, swipe..."
The war drums were beating and flags were waving. The Ming army formation, which had been as calm as ice and as motionless as a mountain, suddenly burst out with three earth-shaking shouts:
"Kill, kill, kill!"
All the soldiers raised their weapons and shouted to the sky at the top of their lungs to demonstrate to the enemy.
At this moment, the sound shook the heaven and the earth, and it felt like the whole earth was shaking.
After three shouts, the Ming army's formation began to move to the rhythm of the army's small drums.
The three square formations were in the middle, covered by cavalry on both wings. They stepped on the ground with neat steps and began to slowly press towards the opposite side.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the round helmets of the Ming army glowed with cold steel light, the spears and cannons were like forests, the big shields were like walls, and the red mandarin ducks and coats were as bright as blood.
Without fighting, just seeing this neat and solemn military appearance is enough to scare the enemy.
"Da da da da..."
Commander Shen Qingye, Cui Yingyi and three others led a group of Korean soldiers to advance forward on horseback.
Lin Qingye first shouted in Korean in front of the army:
"The main force of Jiannu's two thousand cavalry has been completely wiped out by Wang Shi! Jiannu's defeat in Korea has been determined. I hope you will put down your weapons and stop working for Jiannu..."
Cui Yingyi was already the head of the Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei's intelligence department in North Korea. Seeing that the North Korean soldiers were reluctant to put down their weapons, he shouted loudly:
"Ju Renge! Zheng Heng! If you don't move now, when will you wait? Could it be that the flesh and blood of tens of thousands of dead soldiers can't keep you alert?"
Both Lin Qingye and Cui Yingyi had already expressed their opinions. Of course, Chief Shen had to speak. He reached out and drew out the sword from his waist and pointed it straight at the sky:
"Kill the captives, welcome the king's master, make achievements, and wash away the shame. If there is anyone who is stubborn, the king's master will definitely destroy the nine clans..."
Although these three Koreans are not important ministers of the DPRK, they have been recognized by the Ming Dynasty and have a bright future.
Can those ministers in the court and Li Zong say that Lin Qingye and others are traitors?
Of course not, because North Korea is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and the capital of North Korea still needs to be canonized by the Ming Dynasty.
Although these are just a ceremony, they are essential for North Korea.
Therefore, the Ming army's landing in North Korea was not an invasion, let alone an invasion.
Ju Renge is the general of the Korean Imperial Guard Battalion and controls the remaining Imperial Guards.
Li Heng was the military commander of Gyeonggi Province in North Korea and the person who controlled the remaining guerrillas.
As long as these two men raised their arms and shouted, the remaining Korean soldiers would put down their weapons to welcome the Wang division.
Although Zhongwuwei, Zhongzuowei, Yixingwei, and Hubenwei are all gone.
But there are still nearly ten thousand stragglers left in North Korea. It is best to resolve the problem peacefully.
Jiannu could rely on his reputation as a ferocious person in the past to frighten North Korea and make the whole country afraid to act rashly.
However, the Ming army's iron armor rolled in and wiped out two thousand Jian slaves. Ye Bilong was even beheaded in public.
At this time, North Korea's fear of the Ming army was far greater than that of Jiannu, because Wang Shiben was the savior of the Korean people.
At this time, all Koreans' eyes were turned to their king and general.
The Ming Dynasty King's army, with its clanging armor, is approaching step by step. Where will they go? Whether they will fight or surrender.
Everything depends on the choice of their king and general...
Li Shu's face turned pale and he fell into the carriage, trembling and speechless.
Ju Renge immediately stood beside him, holding the hilt of the sword in his hand, his face also turned pale.
He looked at Li Jie, as if waiting for Li Jie to make a decision, but Li Jie was already confused, how could he make a decision?
As for Jin Zidian and other pro-Qing officials, they were sweating frequently and panicking. Jin Zidian was quietly retreating.
The entire North Korean army was in panic, and the soldiers began to make a commotion, and even the horses under their crotches began to roar uncontrollably.
Amidst the beating of drums, the armor of the Ming army was as bright as mountains, and their guns and guns were as bright as forests. Three large formations slowly pressed forward, and soon approached the North Korean army by about 200 steps.
The North Korean army was in silence and fear. No one shouted, only pale faces waiting, ready to escape at any time.
Seeing this situation, King Li Zong of Joseon knew that his throne could not be saved.
According to Korean tradition, a monarch who loses his throne has only one fate: he and his heirs must die.
But what Li Jie was more afraid of was that in the chaos of war, those ministers who were dissatisfied with him and had long-standing ulterior motives would take the opportunity to kill him.
Like a dying person coming back to his senses, Li Zongteng stood up and shouted to Jin Zidian and Gu Renge:
"Quickly, protect me and return to the city first..."
Yes, Ye Bilong was already dead, and Li Zong finally thought of returning to the city.
Ju Renhe and Li Heng immediately ordered the remaining defeated Korean soldiers to quickly enter the city.
As soon as they arrived in front of the city gate, a general suddenly appeared on the city. He bowed to Li Zong and said:
"Your Majesty, please admit your mistake to Master Wang quickly, otherwise you will not be able to enter the city..."
Li Zong and others were shocked when they heard this. They hurriedly raised their heads to look towards the city, only to find that the person was Shen Qiyuan who had just been locked up by him!
Li Zong was shocked. Shen Qiyuan had just been imprisoned by him yesterday. Why did he suddenly appear at the top of the city to stop the more than 200 slaves left by Bilong?
It turned out that not long after Li Zong and E Bilong led their army out of the city, the Jin Yiwei hidden in the city appeared in the cell with a group of men in black and masked with black scarves.
Not only were these men in black extremely skilled in martial arts, each of them also carried a pair of guns, and their marksmanship was perfect. They easily rescued Shen Qiyuan from prison.
After Shen Qiyuan was arrested, he thought he would die. Unexpectedly, he was rescued just a day later. He hurriedly thanked the man in black:
"The sinker is far away, thank you benefactor for saving me!"
The leading man in black waved his hand and said:
"We are the Imperial Guards of the Ming Dynasty, and we are here to rescue you from prison under the orders of Emperor Shenwu. We hope that Lord Shen will immediately take over the defense of Seoul. Last time you entered the palace without permission and almost ruined a big thing. I hope there will be no mistakes this time!"
Shen Qiyuan had just come out of the cell and knew nothing about the situation outside. Hearing this, he asked hurriedly:
"Excuse me, your envoy, what is the situation in Seoul now? Please tell me something!"
The man in black nodded and said:
To be continued...
