Li Chenggui himself is indeed capable and talented. At least among the people of Goryeo's generation, he has a sense of standing out from the crowd. In addition, he is not from a noble family in Goryeo, which makes him suitable to take charge of Goryeo's military for Zhu Biao.
In this regard, neither Jiang Side nor Yao Guangxiao are suitable for this task. After all, they are not talented generals. Moreover, the military has always been xenophobic. It is very difficult for outsiders to take charge and it is easy to provoke mutiny.
Li Chenggui gained a lot of prestige in Goryeo by defeating Naha. Goryeo has been bullied by the Mongols for too long. Now there is a hero who can defeat the Mongols. This is not a god. .
The best part is that Li Chenggui and his father were not originally under the rule of Goryeo. They joined Goryeo after helping King Gongmin regain the Shuangcheng Palace. Promotion, which means that he has no feelings for the country and his family.
Such people are undoubtedly the best to use. The only thing you need to worry about is whether there will be a trend of being too big in the future. After all, no matter how weak Goryeo is, it is still a country with a population of more than two million and a history of more than 400 years. It has a complete system and has learned from the Central Plains. many advanced cultures.
Although according to the news from the pro-military Duwei Mansion and Yao Guangxiao, the Goryeo soldiers were extremely weak, the weapons used by the soldiers were simple and sparse, and the battles were fought in one go, there are still quite bright spots in the history of Goryeo wars, such as Yin Guan's defeat of the Jurchens, Goryeo Mongolia During the war, they defeated the Mongolian army in Guizhou, Cizhou, Churencheng, Zhuzhou, Zhongzhou and other places...
I’m not too worried. After all, Zhu Biao is sitting on thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in the Ming Dynasty, which is by no means comparable to Goryeo. But raising tigers by yourself will not be a good experience after all. And Li Chenggui can create the Li family’s Joseon Dynasty in history. It can be seen that he is ambitious and courageous.
In the final analysis, Zhu Biao had too few chess pieces available in Goryeo. The political legacy left by Monk Xin Min was mostly civil servants, that is, new scholars who passed the imperial examination and were familiar with Confucianism. These people have some merits in studying for officials, but When it comes to military affairs, no one can compete with the aristocratic group headed by Li Renren, let alone check and balance Li Chenggui.
As for Yao Guangxiao and Zhu Biao, they really don’t want to put an ambitious man together with a lunatic who has the skills to slay dragons in troubled times. Just thinking about it is very troublesome. They plan left and right to take down Korea without bloodshed. If we have to launch an army for conquest in the end, then why waste so much time.
There are many ways to solve the problem, the most direct one is to challenge his wife, children and children. It is said that Li Chenggui and his wife are very affectionate and have five legitimate children. The eldest son is one year older than Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "I do have a suitable candidate for my son, but this person is not easy to check and balance. I fear that he will become the last one to separatize the vassal town. He is still young and prosperous, and his provocation to the capital will be ineffective."
Zhu Yuanzhang became a little interested after hearing this. His son was worried that his tail would not fall off, which shows that he has real talent and learning. He thought about it carefully and said: "Who is that Li who defeated Naha?"
"Li Chenggui."
Zhu Yuanzhang sneered and said: "It's nothing. Naha appeared like a idiot. He knew that Goryeo was very mountainous and he dared to divide his troops. He was invaded by cavalry and didn't send cavalry to fight. He knew that the barbarians in Goryeo didn't understand etiquette and justice, but he still imitated Song Xianggong. Qingqi went out to talk to each other, but the man named Li shot and killed the deputy general's bodyguard and his mount, but was not captured alive."
The contempt in Lao Zhu's eyes almost overflowed as he spoke. He obviously regretted that he had misjudged the wrong person and treated Nahachu as a loyal and brave man.
"If you are careless and lose, you will lose. Just regroup and fight again. At least you don't lose the face of your ancestor Mu Huali. But not only does that bitch not dare to fight anymore, he also gives away drums, good horses, and even his own sister. Sent."
Zhu Yuanzhang finally hummed: "You are young and you are like a god in the military. What a genius. Will you be responsible for great things in your country? Ha! What seems like a compliment is actually just to put gold on your own face."
The Liaodong side kept silent about that battle, and the reports from Goryeo were astonishing. In addition, there was chaos in the Central Plains at that time, so no one went to investigate in detail. As the court turned its attention to Liaodong in the past two years, many things have Can't hide it.
At this time, Zhu Biao couldn't help but worry about Nahachu's later life. Looking at his father's intentions, he was probably ready to humiliate him, otherwise it would be difficult to understand his hatred.
It would be fine if Naha appeared as a hero. Even if he did not surrender and caused difficulties for the Ming Dynasty to regain Liaodong, an emperor like Lao Zhu would still have some respect in his heart even if he was ruthless with the sword. But Naha appeared like this, his life should be It was saved, but dignity was forgotten.
"Naha is useless, but Li Chenggui does have some abilities. My father has also seen the situation in Goryeo. Even if I don't interfere, the dynasty will change in recent years. I think Li Chenggui has it." A resource for success.”
Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang become more serious. Among the many vassal states of the Ming Dynasty, Goryeo was one of the best in terms of territory and people. Being able to suppress people from all over the country who inherited the country's surnames in such a country was worthy of recognition.
"Then what do you want to do? Kill it or support it?"
Zhu Biao hesitated for a moment, then Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said: "You are looking forward and backward, why do you have to think so much? We have saved you such a big family, what else do you have to worry about!"
Zhu Biao couldn't help laughing and said: "It's not easy for my father to accumulate such a fortune. My son also sees it, and he dares to squander it wherever he wants. However, what my father taught me is that my son may have been too much in the backyard recently." It’s been a long time, so it’s time to be more decisive.”
"I was hesitating whether to send Xu Yungong, Chang Mao and other distinguished disciples to have some experience. Now I think about it, so I might as well send my fourth brother there, so I can rest assured."
"It's up to you to decide, but it's better to stay with Xu Yungong and Chang Mao. They are closely related and will be your biggest help in the future. Dying in another place will easily make Xu Da and others worry."
"My son, I understand."
Zhu Biao had just made the decision to send Zhu Di to Goryeo. He originally planned to let him go to Tanghe Zhang in the south to participate in the battle to regain Yunnan, but now it seems that Goryeo is more urgent.
After bidding farewell to his father and leaving the Jinshen Palace, Zhu Biao ordered Fuduo to find King Zhu Di of Qi and went to the Wenhua Palace to talk. He also walked towards the Wenhua Palace. On the way, he met several officials from the Zhongshu Province and frowned bitterly. The look on his face shows that he is going to meet the saint again...
After Zhu Biao leisurely drank a cup of tea in the Wenhua Palace, Zhu Di, who hurried over, relieved his slightly rapid breathing in front of the palace door, and then let people in, and sat up in a dignified manner. Big brother salutes.
"My dear brother, I pay my respects to your royal brother, Your Highness the Crown Prince Qianqiu!"
"Come and sit down. I have something to discuss with you. It depends on whether you are willing to go or not?"
Zhu Di's eyes lit up. He had a premonition when he was suddenly called here. He estimated that his departure from Beijing as an errand was settled. Looking back at the envious and jealous eyes of his second son just now, he felt even more happy.
Zhu Di did not stand up but responded solemnly: "My brother is only sent by my eldest brother, and I will never say anything!"
Looking at Zhu Di solemnly below, Zhu Biao was a little curious. The situation in Goryeo was complicated. What would happen if Zhu Di was put in again? Will Li Chenggui be seized of power by Zhu Di, or will Zhu Di be hung up as a Buddha statue by Li Chenggui? Will Yao Guangxiao be tempted when he meets two Qianlong?
"Okay, brother is happy when you say that. Father will definitely be pleased if he knows about it. Come sit down and let us brothers discuss it."
Zhu Di stood up excitedly and stepped forward. Zhu Biao clicked on the topographic map of Liaodong on the book and said: "You must have heard about the imperial court's next plan to regain Liaodong and Yunnan and completely eliminate the remnants of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty."
Zhu Di didn't mean to hide his clumsiness and answered directly: "My brother knows that I heard that Chahan, the son of Nahachu, is in the capital. Is Liaodong ready to surrender?"
Zhu Biao nodded, but when Zhu Di saw this, he felt a little depressed and said: "There is one less battle to fight. My father, the eldest brother Ding Ding Tianxia, has regained Yan Yun, and my brother Chen also wants to open up territory for my Ming Dynasty!"
