To be honest, this wave of coups in Goryeo is really a suicide attempt. He deserves it and does not need any mercy.
Wang Sui's fate of being deposed was due to his constant torture and death. It was purely his own fault.
The advantages of the Southern and Northern Song Dynasties were not learned, but the shortcomings of the Southern and Northern Song Dynasties were learned by Goryeo, and they were carried forward and developed to the extreme by advocating culture and suppressing martial arts.
The political custom of suppressing military generals and advocating for civilian officials in the Southern and Northern Song Dynasties has brought extremely tragic consequences to them. Now the country has been destroyed, and the royal family has basically been arranged clearly.
Building frontiers, building frontiers, building inland transportation, building inland transportation, the remaining Zhao Gou still kneels in front of the statue of Yue Fei every day to repent, becoming a beautiful sight in the eyes of the vast number of visitors to the Yue Fei Ancestral Hall.
It was as if Goryeo had not seen such an outcome. They continued their old path of worshiping civility and suppressing military force, and continued to go further and further down this old path.
When Wang Sui became king, this situation reached its peak.
Civil officials hold all kinds of power and political resources. They can hold military positions, command the army, discuss state affairs, make decisions on state affairs, enjoy a luxurious life, have a high status, and have everything.
The military attachés, on the other hand, have nothing. They are simply like the high-level thugs of the Goryeo royal family and civil servants. They are also particularly undignified, and are infinitely close to the workers under the capitalists.
The status of the military generals of Goryeo was not even as good as that of the military generals of the Northern and Southern Song Dynasties. From the king to a favored eunuch of the king, they could beat, scold, or even slap a high-ranking military officer at will.
Wang Sui, like the Zhao Guan family in the Northern and Southern Song Dynasty, treated civil servants, especially literary attendants and eunuchs favorably, giving them the best treatment, but rarely took into account the feelings of military ministers.
After he ascended the throne, he liked to travel and write articles. He and his favored civil servants and eunuchs drank all night and wrote poems. They were so happy, but the guards and soldiers had no way to rest, and they even couldn't get food. They were hungry and had to stay up late and work overtime.
Needless to say, there is no need to explain the emotions that working overtime without overtime pay will bring to the workers.
Wang Sui was praised as the "Lord of Peace and Good Literature" by the civil servants who treated him favorably. They praised him so much that he almost became the first person in heaven and earth. He was so distracted that he did not notice that the huge danger was approaching him.
It is said that in November, Wang Sui and his favorites left the Goryeo capital and went to the Puxianyuan area to tour the mountains and enjoy the snow. They roasted themselves in a big warm house, ate meat, drank wine, recited poems and composed poems, and had dancing girls. With dancing and musicians playing music, it was a magical day.
But just outside their big house, the accompanying troops and generals were shivering in the cold wind.
They were not allowed to enter the big house to warm themselves by the fire, and they had to accept all kinds of unreasonable demands and orders from the masters in the house at any time. They worked half their lives to achieve their orders, but they were taken for granted without even any reward. So people People are aggrieved and their anger is high.
It wouldn't matter if they were really just beating up workers. What's terrible is that they hold steel knives, which represent the strongest force of human beings.
What does it mean to add a worker and a steel knife?
The accompanying general Li Shaoying was the most senior military general in Goryeo. He was summoned by Wang Sui to the big room to perform a five-armed hand-to-hand fight.
It is said that this is a kind of favor for military commanders.
Perhaps Wang Sui also realized that he had gone too far, so he wanted to appease the generals a little and give them a chance to perform. If they performed well, they would be rewarded.
However, Li Shaoying was old and frail and was no match for the young generals. He failed in the performance and lost face.
Wang Sui's favorite minister Han Lai stepped forward and slapped Li Shaoying in the face. Li Shaoying fell down the steps. Wang Sui and the ministers all clapped their hands and laughed. The other two favorite ministers knew about the censor's affairs, Li Fuji and his right deputy. Chengxuan Lin Zongzhi also took the opportunity to insult Li Shaoying.
What was originally said well was to appease the generals, but in the end it ended up being an insult to the generals for fun.
Seeing the old and frail Li Shaoying die in front of everyone, the grief and anger in the hearts of the generals could not be increased.
I can't bear it anymore, no need to bear it anymore.
So Li Yifang, Li Gao and other representatives of the young officers in the Goryeo army found Zheng Zhongfu, the most senior senior officer besides Li Shaoying, and persuaded him to join everyone's mutiny to fight for the generals and get rid of the man who is now a ghost. Ghost situation.
As a military general, Zheng Zhongfu was once bullied by civil servants and could not lift his head. He especially had a big quarrel with the father of Jin Dunzhong, the current king's favorite minister. At this moment, when he was instigated by the Young Masters, new and old hatreds came to his heart, he decided to Join them.
The moderate faction and the young faction in the army decided to launch a mutiny, so this mutiny was destined to happen.
On the night when Wang Sui and his ministers insulted Li Shaoying for fun, the military generals launched a mutiny at the end of the grand and extravagant banquet.
Almost all the eunuchs and civil servants around Wang Sui were slaughtered. Those civil servants who were still laughing at the generals in the morning and afternoon suddenly became the dead souls of the generals.
The whole Puxian Yuan was filled with rivers of blood and piles of corpses. Wang Sui was so frightened that he shivered.
The little kitten in the past suddenly turned into a man-eating tiger. Wang Sui felt extremely uncomfortable. He gave swords to the military ministers in the hope that they would calm down, but it was meaningless.
On the second day after the mutiny was launched, Zheng Zhongfu met with Wang Sui. Wang Sui took his hand and hoped that he could persuade the generals to stop the massacre and regain their composure, but Zheng Zhongfu himself had not calmed down yet.
They poured out their years of resentment on the civil servants and eunuchs, killing many people and leaving some alive, and tortured them to death in order to vent their dissatisfaction.
Wang Sui's consolation was meaningless. The military generals took him back to Kaicheng, the capital, and then launched a massacre against all forces in Kaicheng who were dissatisfied with their monopoly. They killed almost all the civil servants and eunuchs, and finally stabilized the situation. .
Facts have proved that political power comes from the barrel of a gun, and the pen in the hands of the civilian government is unstable.
Originally, this matter was Gao Li's own business and had nothing to do with Su Yonglin.
But the problem now is that Ming Dynasty is the suzerain state of Goryeo. Such disrespect for the suzerain state in Goryeo seriously violates the interests of Ming Dynasty and is a concrete manifestation of disrespect for Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, Ming Dynasty must respond. From the standpoint of the Goryeo court, this kind of mutiny must not be allowed to occur.
But to be fair, Su Yonglin even had a little bit of approval for this matter.
"The military generals of Goryeo had a bit more backbone than the military generals of the Southern and Northern Song Dynasties. They knew that they could endure it no longer. The military generals of the Southern and Northern Song Dynasties were also suppressed miserably. They had no dignity at all in front of civil servants. Fighting with blood and fire was not as good as writing flowers. In other words, It’s me who has rebelled long ago.”
Su Yonglin sneered for a while and said: "That's what I said, but we can't ignore the matter of Goryeo at the moment. Speaking of Potian, Ming Dynasty is also the suzerain of Goryeo. This relationship has been maintained for so long, and their king has been overthrown. We can't ignore it. There was no reaction.”
Tian Guizi agreed.
"Although this is also a dog-eat-dog fight within the upper-class ruling class, it doesn't really matter to us. But in name, as the suzerain state, Ming Dynasty must do something, otherwise the surrounding countries will think that Ming Dynasty is weak."
Kong Maojie also agreed.
"In terms of nature, this coup is actually an internal contradiction of the ruling class. It is a concentrated expression of the internal conflicts caused by the uneven distribution of interests within the ruling class. It has little to do with the entire Goryeo society. However, I am very worried that this coup will Let Goryeo fall into long-term war."
