Speaking of which, Lu Delai, the prime minister of Gaoguli, saw that the "King of Dongchuan" whom he had watched grow up had a high position and refused to listen to his sincere advice. He was still eager to offend Wei, a powerful neighbor. Not only that , who made great contributions to Gao Gouli and protected Gao Gouli for most of his life, was actually despised by the king, which completely chilled De Lai.
De Lai, who had no idea what to do, came to the mausoleums of past kings before he knew it.
De Lai looked at the king's tomb with a dazed look on his face. He couldn't help but think to himself: Gao Gouli has been passed down for eleven generations now. Is it going to destroy the country at the hands of this kid Jiao Zhi?
When he was a boy, he was valued by his uncle, the ninth "King of Sichuan" Yiyimou. His father was an important minister under Yiyimou.
Yiyimo was originally the second son of Gao Bogu, the eighth "new king". He should not have inherited the throne of Gaoguli. However, the eldest prince Gao Baqi was greedy and immoral, so he got the master who was familiar with the scholars. , the fledgling father, and a group of staff tried their best to help the late king, defeated the eldest prince Baqi, and helped the late king ascend the throne of King Koguryo.
More than thirty years ago, Yiyimo, the "King of Sichuan of the Old Country", passed away. Since the country had no heir, only four younger brothers were left.
The late king was Gao Yanyou, the tenth "King of the Mountain", also known as the High Position Palace. He was the third brother of the "King of Sichuan of the Homeland". Although he was not the eldest brother, he was extremely intelligent since he was a child and was good at riding and shooting. , has extraordinary martial arts skills, and when he grows up, he treats others with kindness and kindness, so he is the most popular.
I tried my best to help him ascend to the throne, but the eldest brother was naturally dissatisfied. Moreover, the Han Dynasty was in decline at that time. Hearing that Yan Yourenyong might threaten the Central Plains, he secretly instigated the eldest brother to rebel. Fortunately, he and the late king were well prepared and solved the conspiracy in one fell swoop.
I can recall that when the late king Yanyou, the King of the Mountain, was alive, although the country was not as strong as it is today, the late king was full of enthusiasm and wanted to let the Koguryo clan live a peaceful life. Full of ambition, talent, and passion, he has been doing his best to help the late king.
Finally, with the efforts of the two of them, they established diplomatic relations with the powerful Wei State of the Central Plains in the south. They learned the Central Plains people's writing and books, farming techniques, smelting methods of armor and weapons, as well as clothing and etiquette. They also received titles from the Emperor of the Central Plains. .
Not only that, seven or eight years ago, Gongsun Yuan claimed that King Yan had invaded Wei. Sima Yi, the Taiwei of the Wei Dynasty, led 40,000 infantry and cavalry, and joined forces with Guanqiu Jian, the governor of Youzhou of the Wei Dynasty, to confront Gongsun Yuan in Liaodong. The late king also sent Dajia and five thousand elite troops to assist Sima Yi and Guanqiu Jian, and successfully destroyed Gongsun Yuan, eliminated Gongsun's old enemy, and successfully avenged the previous humiliation.
In this way, Gao Gouli finally developed towards peace and happiness step by step, but the good times did not last long. Gao Yanyou's body and bones were getting worse day by day. He was unable to enjoy the peaceful life for a few more days and finally died some time ago. A cold winter passed suddenly.
The late king had the only high-ranking son. Because the wild boar howled on the day of his birth, he was nicknamed "Jiao Pig". After the death of the previous king, it was natural for Jiao Pig to become the prince. He became the 11th "King of Dongchuan" in Koguryo.
When Jiao She was a boy, he was just like his father. He was very brave, skilled in pommel and horse, and good at riding and shooting. He often showed his talents in small battles with the neighboring Chen Han, Ma Han and other Korean tribes, and won the favor of the late king Yanyou. love. De Lai and Jiao Zhi had an uncle-nephew relationship, so when they saw the young hero, they were naturally overjoyed and full of expectations for him.
But what Jean didn't expect was that he fully expected to become a holy king in Xiaojiao. After taking the throne, although he was not debauched or immoral, he relied on his bravery and the family fortune left by his father to go to war. They launched one meaningless harassment war after another against the surrounding Korean people.
At first, this move indeed made Chen Han, Ma Han and other countries very afraid, and the countries kept sending envoys to sue for peace, but this made the arrogant and arrogant Gao Youzhi become even more cruel. Later, the countries could not bear it anymore and chose to unite. Gao Youzhi led his army to attack again, but ended in failure twice in a row.
Fortunately, Zhu Han only wanted to give up when things were good, and had no intention of pursuing the victory, and Gao Youshang, who had been poured cold water on him, remained honest for half a year. During this period of time, Gao Youzhi, who had calmed down, had matured a lot, which also made De Lai feel a little relieved.
The most unexpected thing that Delailai didn't expect was that the suburban pig he and the late king had grown up with would actually be instigated by the villain Nuyou and gradually alienate themselves!
Niyu was an ordinary centurion of the imperial army. His beautiful sister was chosen in the palace. Naturally, Jiao Zhi loved this girl very much. The girl took advantage of the situation and recommended her brother Niu Yu to Jiao Zhi.
The beauty often boasted in the palace that her brother was brave enough to be worthy of any man. Jiao Zhi, who always boasted of his extraordinary courage, was naturally curious and unconvinced, so he had a competition with New You when they first met, and New You was not incompetent. After a comparison with others, Jiao Zhi found that not only was Nuyou's strength far greater than his own, but it was also difficult to find an opponent among the royal palace's forbidden army.
In this way, the military-loving Jiao Hu and the brave New You hit it off, and New You has his sister to take care of him in the palace. As expected, New You has been rising steadily, and in less than a year, New You has become the leader of the whole country. Da Laisa, the most respected among the military generals, was directly on par with Da Dui Lu Delai, a veteran of the three dynasties!
De Lai met Niu You, a young hero. In line with the idea of promoting talents for the country, he did not block Niu You's promotion path. However, what De Lai never expected was that Niu Youkong had a lot of courage, but he had no trace of it. With his own strategy, he had just been promoted to the great Laisa who was in charge of the country's military forces, and he was eager to encourage the king to raise troops in the suburbs to invade Wei!
Knowing that the Wei State was powerful, Jiao Hu didn't dare to act rashly, but he couldn't resist Niu You's fanning the flames and Niu You's sister turning a deaf ear. As time went by, Jiao Hu, who was warlike at heart, naturally became hot-headed and agreed despite all the hard work and persuasion. The strategy of advancing westward from New York was adopted.
It happened that at this time, all the population of Liaodong was moved to Zhongzhou by Sima Yi. Liaodong happened to be empty. Nuyou led thousands of elite soldiers. Originally, he just wanted to test the strength of Wei State tentatively. Unexpectedly, he successfully occupied it with this test. Two counties!
After this victory, Niuyou, who was overjoyed with his success, thought that he was a god descending to earth. Jiaohu, who originally had some respect for Lai's advice, was even more unscrupulous. From then on, he no longer listened to Lai's words.
"My late king, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness in knowing me and your kindness in supporting me..."
Soon, the Gouli guest who returned from the south finally returned to his home. But when he arrived at the Da Dui Lu Mansion that his brother had acquired, he only saw the cold mourning hall inside.
It turned out that De Lai cried profusely in front of the late king's tomb that day, and after returning home he refused to eat or drink. No matter how his family tried to dissuade him, it was of no use. Six days later, De Lai, who was already old and weak, finally died of starvation. I went to Lu Mansion.
After learning the truth, Julike knelt in front of his brother's soul and cried out in mourning, but the dead man could never come back to life.
De Lai protected the country for decades and benefited the people countless times. When the people in Gaoguli heard that De Lai died on a hunger strike to persuade the king, they all shed tears. The people who were grateful for the kindness even built an ancestral hall to worship him. It is said that the ruins of this ancestral hall still exist today.

Of course Guanqiu Jian had heard about De Lai's death remonstrance. He was originally afraid of the national power Gao Gouli had accumulated over the years, but when he heard that only one old Gogo Gouli dared to offend Yan Zhijian, the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty After the silent situation, he suddenly felt a lot more at ease.
Gao Gouli claimed to be a descendant of the Qi State in the Spring and Autumn Period of the Central Plains with the surname Gao, so he took Gao as his national surname. Its lord, 'King Dongchuan', was in a high position and his nickname was Jiao Zhi. He was the eleventh king of Koguryo.
After Emperor Wen Cao Pi succeeded the Han Dynasty, the Liaodong area has been occupied by the Gongsun family.
The Gongsun family has been dominant in Liaodong since the Han Dynasty, conquering all the Rong and Yi from far and near. Gaogouli, who was still very weak at this time, naturally did not dare to offend Gongsun, a fierce tiger from Liaodong. In order to please Gongsun, Gao Bogu, the "new king" of Gaogouli, often sent troops to help Gongsun destroy the bandits.
Later, Gao Bogu, the "new king" of Goguli, passed away, and Gongsun Du tried to let the eldest prince Gao Baqi inherit the throne of Goguli. However, in the end, Gao Yiyimo, Baqi's younger brother, won the throne with the support of De Lai and others. He won the throne and became the "King of Sichuan" of Gaoguli.
From then on, Gao Gouli formed a relationship with Gongsun.
Later, the Gongsun family became increasingly powerful, and if they wanted to compete in the Central Plains, they naturally had to solve the worries of Gaogouli first; and Gaogouli's national power also became stronger day by day, and if they wanted to realize their dream of dominating Liaodong, they also had to eliminate the obstacle of the Gongsun family.
The two had their own hidden agendas and began to confront each other. But Gao Gouli was weak after all, and Gao Yanyou, the "King of the Mountain", mainly took the defensive to protect the territory and the people, intending to wait and move.
One year, Gongsun Kang, who had been premeditated, raided and burned down the capital that Gaogouli had managed for ten years. Gaogouli was forced to move the capital to Wandu, a mountain city with steep terrain but poor soil. Gao Yanyou's title of "King of the Mountain" also came from this. After this battle, Gaogouli and the Gongsun family naturally became more incompatible.
Over the years, in order to get rid of the suppression of Gongsun, Gaogouli often formed an alliance with Cao Wei to suppress Gongsun.
In the early years of Emperor Cao Ruijing of the Ming Dynasty, when Sima Yi, Marquis of Wuyang, led an army of 40,000 to the north to attack the rebellious Gongsun Yuan, Gao Yanyou, the "King of the Mountain", also sent Chief Secretary Dajia and thousands of troops to help.
But what Guanqiu Jian didn't expect was that less than ten years after Gongsun Yuan was defeated and Liaodong was pacified, the newly appointed Gaoyou, who was in the high suburbs, chose to join forces with Soochow and betray the Wei Dynasty. Fortunately, General Cao Shuang had already found out the news about the school affairs arranged in Soochow, and Guanqiu Jian had already made preparations for a counterattack.
Not long ago, Gaogouli indeed sent General Niuyou to attack Xi'an Ping County on the Liaodong border!
This was naturally Guanqiu Jian's plan. He had long since moved the people from the border counties in Liaodong to the hinterland of Youzhou, creating an extremely empty border, naturally in order to further paralyze the already dizzy enemy.
But now, since Gao Gouli has taken the initiative to step into the thunder pool on the border of the Wei Dynasty, it is naturally time for him to fight back!
Guanqiu Jian looked at the map of Liaodong on the desk, his eyes flashing with excitement.
