Prince of Chaos

Chapter 303 The Yalu Riverside
Just when Zhu Changluo was operating Li Chengliang as Minister of the Ministry of War in Beijing, Xing Jie's side had already reached the Yalu River.

Speaking of the origin of the Yalu River, I have to mention Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding monarch of the Ming Dynasty.

Before Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor, the name of the Yalu River was not Yalu River, but Yalu River, with the word Lu in the middle having three dots of water.

The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang changed it to green characters is because of political considerations.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the world was in turmoil. At that time, Goryeo, which was later North Korea, took the opportunity to send troops to occupy here, and then after Zhu Yuanzhang established Ming Dynasty, Goryeo directly swore allegiance to Daming, and it will be the vassal state of Daming forever.

Zhu Yuanzhang also bestowed the country name of Koryo Korea for this reason. Since then, the Ming Dynasty has become a vassal relationship. Therefore, regarding the division of sovereignty over the Yalu River, Zhu Yuanzhang can only hold his nose and admit it. Planting does not mean that the Yalu River is no longer needed, so under Zhu Yuanzhang's operation, the Yalu River became the dividing line between Ming and North Korea, a boundary river.

Moreover, in terms of sovereignty over the Yalu River, it is tantamount to taking it back, so the Yalu River is naturally still the territory of Ming Dynasty.

As for why the character 渌 in the middle should be turned into a green character, there is also a small story.

It is said that at the time of Hongwu 29, North Korea sent envoys to Nanjing to ask Zhu Yuanzhang to grant seals and orders to North Korea as the suzerain of the suzerain country.However, in the letter of credence, the Koreans used "Zhoushi", which directly stimulated Zhu Yuanzhang.

It's thanks to these gangsters who figured out the relationship between Zhou and Zhou.In the eyes of the orthodox Central Plains dynasty, King Zhou was a negative teaching material, a fatuous and immoral tyrant.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang was very angry about this matter, thinking that North Korea was extremely rude.He directly detained the North Korean envoy, and then sent a decree to North Korea to ask North Korea to hand over the person who wrote the letter of credence.

At that time, this frightened the North Korean envoys to pee. They really didn't expect to pat the horse's hoof after flattering.I can only obediently send him to Daming.

After these writers were escorted to Nanjing, Zhu Yuanzhang "inquired about their reasons" in court and ordered "don't send them back".Seeing that these sticks can't survive.

At this time, among the Korean Confucian scholars detained by Zhu Yuanzhang, there was Quan Jin, a famous Zhu Zi scholar in the early Li Dynasty. He talked with Zhu Yuanzhang in Chinese, and his attitude was modest and practical when he explained the mistakes in the form. , You must use the letter. The ministers and others grew up overseas and were unable to learn, so that my king Zhong Zhong couldn’t understand it. This is the crime of the real ministers and others, not known to my king.”

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he "relieved of his anger".Then he ordered Quan Jin to stay in Wenyuan Pavilion for three days, and ordered him to compose 24 poems for appreciation. Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied after reading it, and then gave three imperial poems as a gift.

One of these three imperial poems is called "Yalu River". The poem says: "The Yalu River has an ancient style of clearing the borders, and the strong and undeceitful people enjoy the time. He can't escape the thousand-year lesson, and the etiquette and etiquette can be cultivated for hundreds of generations. It can be recorded in the Han Dynasty. Liao Zheng must examine the traces. Feelings are built in the heart of heaven, and there will be no waves and no attacks forever."

Since then, whether it is in the official records of Ming Dynasty or in official documents, Yalu River has been changed to Yalu River since then.

Moreover, in this poem, Zhu Yuanzhang also made it clear who the Yalu River is.Therefore, when Xing Jie is standing by the Yalu River now, he doesn't have the feeling that he is about to enter a foreign country. He feels that this is going back to his own home.

At this time, Ma Gui also came to Xing Jie's account.

Xing Jie took Ma Gui to the riverside, Xing Jie looked at the bleak North Korea on the other side of the river, and said, "How is General Ma's preparations going?"

Ma Gui immediately replied: "The general will be ready at any time, as long as the commander-in-chief gives an order, the general will immediately go out to wipe out the Japanese pirates."

Xing Jie looked at Ma Gui with satisfaction, and Xing Jie said: "This time, we are also different from the first time we entered North Korea, so we all thought that we should fight steadily, gradually encroach on the Korean territory occupied by Japanese pirates, and then exhaust it once and for all. The domestic potential of the Japanese pirates. Therefore, the capital will now set a tone for you. After entering the Korean war, if you encounter the main force of the Japanese pirates, you should avoid their edge and use the depth of North Korea to fight a protracted war with the Japanese pirates. "

After Ma Gui listened to Xing Jie's words, he was stunned, can he fight like this?
Isn't the imperial court anxiously waiting for the news of North Korea's triumphant return?

If, according to Xing Jie's protracted war style of play, the court will definitely blame it.

After all, when the army moved to North Korea, the daily consumption of food and grass was countless. If Xing Jie's style of play was really followed, wouldn't the court be dragged to death?
"General system, isn't this too risky? The imperial court is still waiting for us to win quickly."

Magui finally said this sentence.

Xing Jie looked at Ma Gui, and Xing Jie said: "Do you know how many troops the Japanese pirates came to invade this time? The Japanese pirates came with 15 troops! And we currently only have 3 horses, and the Korean army has been exhausted and corrupted. It’s unbearable, and even the guide can’t provide us with it, how can we win quickly under such circumstances?”

After hearing Xing Jie's words, Ma Gui also fell silent. It was true, the disparity in military strength was too great, and his teammates were too good.Moreover, fighting in a foreign country and not knowing the language, the degree of trouble in fighting is indeed unimaginable.

Moreover, this time the Japanese pirates are still invading for the second time, they must have come prepared, if they really had to fight rashly, even if they won one or two games, the consumption of troops would not be borne by Ma Guicheng, after all , He brought 7000 trusted soldiers here.

If all of them are shot here, then he is a polished commander.

Such a result is absolutely unacceptable to Ma Gui.

Ma Gui asked, "Then what shall we do?"

The old god Xing Jie said: "Wait."

Ma Gui asked again: "When will it be?"

Xing Jie said: "Wait until people's hearts are with me, wait until the Japanese pirates are tired, then it will be the time for us to sweep the world away."

When Ma Gui heard what Xing Jie said, he had nothing to say. After all, he was restrained by Xing Jie. How to fight, how to fight, and when to fight, Xing Jie had the final say.

All he has to do is obey orders.

However, thinking of the consumption of the [-] army, Ma Gui couldn't help but ask: "President, what about the food and grass? Will the court be willing?"

Xing Jie said: "You don't have to worry about food and grass, you have your own ideas. Food and grass are supplied by His Highness the Crown Prince's Xishan Huangzhuang. The most important thing now is how to win Yizhou on the other side as our stronghold for entering the dynasty. Enemy outside the country is what we should consider."

When Ma Gui heard that Xishan Huangzhuang was supplying food and grass, he felt relieved.The last battle in Ningxia was the food and grass provided by Xishan Huangzhuang, and Magui still remembers this.Therefore, when he heard that it was the crown prince's Xishan Huangzhuang that provided food and grass, Ma Gui excitedly said: "His Royal Highness is unparalleled in kindness, and it is my great blessing."

After saying this, he immediately said: "The final general is willing to lead troops to fight and win Yizhou for the general system."

Xing Jie said: "Okay, then the first command of the capital will be handed over to you. I will give you three days to take Yizhou down."

"The final general will not disgrace his mission, and he will conquer Yizhou within three days!"
