Section 20 The Korean Incident - General Wallhead
Although Li Hao felt a little embarrassed in his heart, it was only after a short conversation with Yue Xiaofei that he had completely believed in this person who claimed to be the "City Lord of Shenzhou City". Judging by his strength, it should not be Emperor Longwu's subordinates, nor is it for the sake of plotting the country, otherwise with his strength, it would not be effortless to destroy Korea.
"So, let's take it apart!" After that, Li Luo, who had a look of uncertainty on his face, took the secret edict, and did not avoid Yue Xiaofei, and took a look at it in person.
Li Hao's face gradually changed from the ruddy face that was warm in the room at first, and finally his face was gray, and the secret decree slipped from his hand and fell to the ground.
Li Roll looked at his brother's face, didn't know what to do, and hurriedly leaned under the table to pick it up, and read it out loud.
“…… If you expect to lose your ambition as a wolf, you will inevitably recognize the thief as your father. …… Since the founding of the country, our dynasty has always respected the etiquette of the Chinese state, and has treated some Hulu ...... Since the date of receiving the edict, the throne has been taken over by Li Hao, the prince of Fenglin, and I am encouraged to lead the army of the king with the world's cloth clothes to inspire and strive to be diligent......"
Yue Xiaofei listened to the edict read by Li Luan, the Grand Prince of Longcheng, and suddenly understood the situation in his heart. On the one hand, the son who recognized the thief as his father led the Qing army to seize the throne, and on the other hand, the old father and young brother who refused to surrender to Hu Lu rose up to fight, and it seemed that he had come to the right time.
On Li Hao's disgraced face, tears rolled in, and he shouted: "Brother Yue, it seems that the old father has the heart of death, this ...... That's a good ....... ”
Yue Xiaofei was grateful for the loyalty of the Joseon royal family, and his color changed and he said: "Brother Hao's plan for this is only to recapture Seoul, and according to the edict of King Injo, the brother will be on the throne, and then our Shenzhou City is naturally obliged to help the brothers train the new army again, and it is the only way to fight with the Qing army in the future." ”
When Li Hao heard this, he suddenly broke away from his seat, knelt down in front of Yue Xiaofei and said: "If the old father is really harmed by the wolf, the brother vows to devote the strength of the whole country to fight the Qing court to the end, even if he is broken." ”
Yue Xiaofei hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold up Li Hao and said: "We Han people also have a common enmity with the Qing army, and it is natural for us to join forces with our brothers to resist the Qing Dynasty. ”
Just when Yue Xiaofei was discussing with the two princes of the Korean royal family. Li Wei, the son of Zhaoxian, who has entered Seoul, has already sent a list saying, "Rebellious Li Hao is rebellious and rebellious, and has led a thousand forbidden troops to rebel out of Seoul and go to Busan." Now respect the last order of King Renzu, and the son of Li Wei ....... ”
When the people saw this proclamation, although they didn't believe that the gentle and elegant Li Hao dared to do such a rebellious thing, they just came and went with the pigtailed soldiers and the cavalry of the stubborn Imperial Barracks Hall of the capital patrolling back and forth.
When the prince of Zhaoxian entered the Forbidden Palace, he never expected to be able to enter the palace so smoothly. In the entire forbidden palace, no one dared to resist, only a few forbidden soldiers who did not know whether they were alive or dead blocked it, and as a result, they all became ghosts under the knife of the Manchurian iron horsemen. Now sitting behind the dragon case to deal with the chapter, the former son of Zhaoxian Li Wei is happy in his heart, not to mention.
After falling, the Qing army general Duo Qing looked uncertain, standing in front of the window on the side, looking at the snow in the courtyard, his face showing a cloudy and uncertain look.
Li Wei, the son of Zhaoxian, who was in a good mood, slowly came behind Duoqing and said: "General, what's the trouble, now this king is in power......
Duo Qing glanced at him, as if complaining to him for interrupting his train of thought. However, he still turned around and said with a deep salute: "The king doesn't know, the two thousand-strong teams we sent to the dock have been blocked, and the enemy we encountered when I heard the news is the bandits of Shenzhou City in the southern strong beam, and the extremely powerful general is worried about this matter. ”
Due to the Qing court's extremely strict blockade of his defeat in the Battle of Jiangxi, Li Wei, the prince of Zhaoxian, only vaguely heard that the battle ahead was unfavorable, and he really didn't know much about Shenzhou City except that it was a place to play tricks and tricks. And in order to save his face, Duoqing only said that he was blocked, not that he was defeated.
Therefore, hearing Duoqing's worries, Li Wei was not afraid, and said with a slight pride on his face: "The general doesn't have to worry, this king immediately ordered Park Yizhi to send you 5,000 city guards, plus the general's headquarters, I think that nearly 10,000 heavenly soldiers will be successful." ”
Duo Qing scolded in his heart: "You are the king of Fanbang, you are really an ignorant and meaningless, the other party is the Shenzhou army!" Dare to provoke the 300,000 army of the imperial court with less than 50,000 people, and win the battle...... Don't mention it! I have heard that the Shenzhou army is haunted and moves quickly, but now there is snow everywhere here, and our army is all cavalry, and it is difficult to move. Moreover, listening to the rout army outside the city, the number of the other side is not large, and there is a suspicion of retreating south, so it is safe to refuse to defend the city and defend it. ”
Thinking of this, Duo Qing said: "The king doesn't have to make a big deal for this enemy army, the little thief doesn't make a climate, he just needs to defend the city, the cold outside the city is abnormal, and the cold wind blows at night and he is afraid of freezing and freezing to death, and our army only needs to defend the city." ”
Li Wei nodded and said: "That's fine, when they drink enough cold wind all night, they will send a large army to sweep tomorrow morning, and use the Manchurian elite cavalry and 5,000 men and horses of our city guards, and they will definitely be leveled with one drum."
When Duo Qing heard this, he nodded his head busily, and was afraid that he would change his mind again, and insisted on stealing the camp or fighting tonight, so he was busy saying that he wanted to go to the military camp to check and withdraw from the palace.
Who is this Duoqing, everyone knows that in the official history, Dolgon only has a step-son named Doltai, in fact, before that, there was an illegitimate son who was this Duoqing.
The reason why Dolgon sent him here this time was to ask him to stay here forever, and this matter was promised by the prince of Zhao Xian, as long as the political situation in Goryeo was stable, he would report to the Qing court about Doqing's unexpected death, and then he could become a political dignitary by Li Wei's side.
In this way, even if the general Dolgon loses power in the later generations, he can maintain that the bloodline of the Duo clan will not be extinct due to his own reasons, which is also a little plan for Dolgon for his descendants. (In the official history, this is the case, but Dolgon had to bury Duoqing's hidden life in the world because of the murder of the son of Zhaoxian.) )
At this moment, the biggest profit is the "wall general" Park Yizhi. Not only because of the help of the Qing army's iron cavalry when the city welcomed the envoys, the city guards have been wiped out and consolidated their position in the city guards, but also because they are every general who is loyal to the new king, and is favored by Li Wei.
Some blue-blue flames rose from the carbon basin, as if a girl was writhing her slender waist in this big house. The frequent collision of cups and plates indicates that a feast is unfolding here. Outside the house, large snowflakes fell in the dark night sky.
