Chapter 1131 Usurping the country and betraying the country
Takujunkyung's behavior of killing the Goryeo**** element Yin Guan is undoubtedly worthy of recognition! At least he accepted a letter of fame that made Uyasu look at, and won him the status of the North Goryeo prime minister.
However, Yin Guan's death and the fall of Goryeo Xijing did not end the eight-year war. Just the second day after Goryeo Xijing fell, the fifth general of the Youzhou army led by Xue Ding and Wang Yan also captured Goryeo Nanjing with the support of the Tianli gunboat, thus completing the north-south encirclement of Goryeo's capital.
Subsequently, the Jurchen-Youzhou coalition forces occupying Xijing of Goryeo and the Youzhou army occupying Nanjing of Goryeo advance towards Kaijing almost at the same time. The journey was unstoppable, and three days later, they met under Kaijing City and completed the siege of the capital of Goryeo.
In this process, the Goryeo court wasted time in the war and lost the precious opportunity to flee to Gyeongju, Tokyo.
At this time in Kaijing, the leader of the ranks was Cui Hongsi, the Pingzhang official and Wang Ya, the father-in-law of the King of Goryeo, Li Ziqian, the head of the Privy Council.
Among them, Cui Hongsi was born in the Cui family in Haizhou, and was the son of the Confucius Cui Chong clan in Haidong. His family was a top-notch family in Goryeo. Li Ziqian also had a very powerful background. He was the head of the Li family in Qingyuan, the local snake in Qingyuan County that Wu Haogu wanted. Qingyuan Li family, Anshan Jin family, Qingyuan Jin family, Haizhou Cui family, Qingzhou Wang family and Zhenzhou Liu family are the six most awesome nobles in the Goryeo country! Now the Cui family, the Li family, represents two of them.
However, Cui and Li Er family have the same weakness, which is that they are completely a family of civil officials. Cui family has been born in "Haidong Confucius" and is also known as the "Boling Cui family in China. It is a famous family of gentry of many generations, so of course they will not have any vulgar martial artists.
The Li family of Qingyuan was not a founding noble family. Instead, they relied on the rich beauty of the clan to climb to the Kim clan of Anshan, and then climbed to the royal family of Goryeo through the Kim clan. From the Goryeo Wenzong to the current king Wang Ya, the six kings, only Xianzong, who was usurped the throne when he was young, and Suzong, who came to power, did not marry the women of the Li clan of Qingyuan. Wang Ya, the son of Suzong, once again continued the tradition. His two queens, one was the daughter of Emperor Xuanzong of Goryeo (Wang Ya's uncle), became the queen in the name of the daughter of the Li clan of Qingyuan. The other was Li Ziqian.
The Qingyuan Li family, who relied on beauties to climb to the six noble status, certainly had no force. The children of the clan also became civil servants.
Therefore, the military power of Kaijing is now in the hands of Wu Yanchong, the Pingzhangshi, and Yin Yanchun, the son of Yin Yan, who is in charge of the war.
Before the bad news of Yin Guan's death in the fall of Xijing came. Wu Yanchong was very high-profile. On the one hand, he sold his property and purchased weapons to reward the three armies. On the other hand, he proposed to send troops to Xijing to rescue the besieged Yin Guan. Therefore, Yin Yanchun, the son of Yin Guan, was very grateful to him. The two got closer and closer and became the core of the pro-war faction.
And when Yin Guan's death was reported, Xijing, Nanjing's fall, and Youzhou-Goryeo coalition forces were about to set off the capital.
Cui Hongsi and Li Ziqian, who were in charge of peace, became arrogant again and joined forces with a group of civil officials to impeach Wu Yanchong and Yin Yanchun, and also proposed to cede land and seek peace.
Wu Yanchong and Yin Yanchun used the excuse of being impeached and no longer went to court, but instead "listened to the temple" in the mansion, and were actually waiting for the opportunity to attack.
...
It's late at night.
"Pingzhang! Pingzhang!" A loud and anxious shouting sounded from the outer hall of the Wu family's mansion, and it reached the inner study deep in the mansion. The shouting sounded together was the sound of horse boots hitting the wooden floor.
Wu Yanchong, who was sitting in the study, whispered to his cousin Wu Yanen: "It's Yin Yanchun, he should know that the peace talks are hit. Our big thing has come true!"
Wu Yanen stood up, "Brother Yu is avoiding it first."
"Okay." Wu Yanchong also stood up, watching his cousin leave through a side door, then took off the sword hanging on the wall, pulled it out with a clang, and then looked at the blade with a strange light under the light with a sad look.
Just as he was looking at the sword, the door of the study was suddenly opened. Standing outside the door was Yin Yanchun, who was extremely angry.
Seeing Wu Yanchong leaning his sword against his neck, Yin Yanchun was stunned, "Ping Zhang, what are you doing?"
Wu Yanchong was the same. When he saw a guest coming, he stopped wiping his neck. He also put down his hand holding the sword and gritted his teeth and spit out two words: "Sacrifice for the country!"
Wu Yanpeng is a loyal minister! The king was humiliated and his neck was right. Because he now knew that the traitors led by Cui Hongsi and Li Ziqian in the court failed to traitors!
The Jurchen Youzhou coalition outside the city was extremely unreasonable. Cui Hongsi and Li Ziqian were not allowed to sell the country! Instead, they asked the King of Goryeo Wang Ya to perform a "sheep-heading ceremony" and completely surrender to the childish Jurchen!
The so-called sheep-holding ceremony is a surrender ceremony popular among the nomadic peoples in the north. It requires the surrender to be naked, wearing sheep's clothing, tethered around the neck, and being led like a sheep, which also means being slaughtered like a sheep.
Moreover, this kind of sheep-holding ceremony also means the destruction of the country for the Goryeo court in the capital!
Starting from Wang Jian, the Kingdom of Goryeo, which had 16 generations of kings, will perish from then on. The two realms and five paths of Goryeo, millions of people will become slaves to the Jurchen barbarians!
Wu Yanchong is a very loyal and loyal person. Of course, he is unwilling to be a slave to the country, and he is even more unlikely to accept the insult of the sheep-heading ceremony, so he can only commit suicide and die for the country.
Yin Yanchun saw Wu Yanchong raise his sword again, as if he was about to wipe it on his neck, so he hurried forward, and he snatched the sword with his bare hands, and then shouted to the Wu servants outside the door, "Why don't you look at Ping Zhang a little? Take the sword away and hide it! Didn't you hear it!"
The servant outside the door quickly ran away with his sword, but Wu Yanchong stomped his feet and said, "Goryeo is about to perish. What's the point of living? Are you waiting for someone to take it out like a sheep?"
"This, this..." Yin Yanchun was also anxious, "Is there no other way? Is there no way to live in Da Goryeo?"
"Of course there is a way to live," Wu Yanchong said, "How can the treacherous ministers be in power? The traitorous concubines are in trouble with the country!"
Of course, the treacherous minister was Cui Hongsi and Li Ziqian's ministers. The treacherous concubine was naturally Li Ziqian's daughter. He was the one who gave birth to an heir to Wang Ya. If it was not eliminated, how could the loyal ministers of the court feel at ease?
"As long as the treacherous minister and treacherous concubine is eliminated, will Goryeo Kingdom be saved?" Yin Yanchun asked uncertainly.
The battle is clearly defeated by the pro-war faction! Yin Yanchun's father Yin Guan, and Wu Yanchong, are all defeated generals who have been defeated repeatedly. Now that they are defeated to the destruction of the country, they are a bit unauthorized, right?
And inciting the Bewu Ban and the Six Guards' Imperial Army in the city to launch an army rebellion and kill the treacherous minister and concubine. The Jurchen Youzhou coalition forces outside the city were willing to fight back to their homes? If they didn't leave, wouldn't the city be destroyed in the end?
Wu Yanchong said with a grief and anger: "Kill the treacherous minister and concubine who ruined the country, and we will negotiate with the enemy again. In any case, we must protect Goryeo's national fortune. If they do not agree, then protect the king out of the city and fight with them! At worst, it's better to die than to be so cowardly now!"
"That's right. Anyway, I'm determined to die, so I might as well fight them!" Yin Yanchun gritted her teeth.
However, he didn't understand why Wu Yanchong killed Cui Hongsi, Li Ziqian and Li Ziqian's daughter before fighting with Wu Haogu and Wanyan Wuyashu? They didn't say they wouldn't let them fight to the death... And now the enemies outside the city are not allowed to sell their country, and they have no way to sell their country. What should they do if they don't let them fight to the death?
And why did he try to sell the country again before he tried his best? Could it be that the treacherous ministers Cui Hongsi and Li Ziqian, who have always been in charge of peace, would not sell the country, but the loyal Wu Yanpeng, who has always been in charge of war, have better skills in selling the country?
There are many problems, but Yin Yanchun is not willing to think too much. He killed the traitorous minister and concubine first, and took power away. Let's talk about it again. If Wu Yanchong has the ability to successfully sell the country, they will be heroes to protect the country and will naturally be prosperous and wealthy. If they can't sell it, then try their best!
Before his suspension, Yin Yanchun was the deputy envoy of the Beiwu squad. He was the commander of more than 10,000 new recruits in the Beiwu squad who were training in Kaijing. Moreover, his father Yin Guan and Wu Yanchong have long controlled military power and have many confidants in the Six Guards and Imperial Guards in Kaijing.
Without the news that Cui Hongsi and Li Ziqian failed to sell off the country, it would be impossible for Wu Yanchong and Yin Yanchun to launch a coup. After all, most of the officers in Goryeo are descendants of nobles and grandchildren, and they are with the country. How could they support the rioters and traitors usurp the country? But now the country cannot be sold, and everyone's descendants will be out of place. Natural people's hearts are fluctuating, which is just an opportunity to usurp the country!
"Okay!" Wu Yanchong emphasized, "I'll go to the Biewu Ban camp with you. I still have 20,000 taels of silver in my house, and I will take them out to reward the army. One tael of soldiers is one tael of liang, and the officers will give them two taels. There are also some bacon and rice transported from the Song Dynasty, and they will also be taken out to share with everyone.
In addition, we can also promise the soldiers that as long as the Goryeo Kingdom survives, they will be all heroes of the country to save the country. They will be ranked in the martial arts ranks in the future, and their descendants can be military officers! They can also share the fields of treacherous officials with them!"
Wu Yanchong was really willing to pay for his capital! It was silver, salted broth and rice, land, and he was also appointed as an official. In addition, the Biewu squad was originally trained by him and Yin Guan, and they were all their confidants. Although most of the Biewu squad soldiers stationed in the city were newly recruited, the officers were all old people. Of course, they were incited immediately!
Anyway, it’s a dead person. Now I’ve eaten rice and broth. Let’s try it again. What if it succeeds?
The next morning, more than 15,000 soldiers of the Biewu squad stationed outside the south gate of Banyuecheng were full of food and drink, shouting the slogan "kill the traitors and save Goryeo" and heading towards the Palace of the Full Moon Platform.
A coup occurred in the capital of Goryeo!
