Chapter 861 "Saoming" Comes to the Goryeo Dynasty

"Daliao came down with a national letter, ordering me to send troops to destroy the traitorous women, how to deal with it?"

In the Goryeo Dynasty, the capital of the country was Kaijing, and in the simple palace, the King of Goryeo looked at a group of important officials and asked for their opinions.

No one from the group of ministers spoke, and the hall was silent.

The king of Koryo has always been arbitrary, and initially took the throne from his nephew as an "uncle" through a coup d'état.

During his reign, he reformed internally, strengthened the royal power, and minted currency. Since then, he broke the monopoly of barter exchange in Koryo. He sent envoys to the Song Dynasty in foreign affairs, and asked the Song Dynasty to allow Gaoli scholars to participate in the imperial examinations of the Song Dynasty. Zhe Zong agreed.

After Huizong ascended the throne, the King of Koryo also sent envoys to congratulate him, asking for books such as "Cefu Yuangui", "General Rescue of Miraculous Doctors", "Taiping Yulan" and other books. Huizong agreed, and also wanted to ask for "Zizhi Tongjian". rejected.

In serving the Liao Kingdom, he has always been obedient. This person's real name is Wang Xi, because "Xi" is the same as "Xi". After Yelu Yanxi succeeded to the throne, he immediately changed his name to "Wang Yong" to avoid respect. , was rewarded by Yelu Yanxi.

As for the Jurchen, which annexed the surrounding tribes and gradually grew until it bordered on Koryo, this old dynasty that considered itself a big country was not polite, and brazenly launched a war.

The history books of the two countries have different descriptions of this. The Kingdom of Jin said that Goryeo was an invader, and Goryeo said that the Jurchens were plotting to commit crimes. The Koryo army "captured more than half of the casualties", and the King of Koryo had to send envoys to seek peace and demarcate the border.

After that, they fought again and again, and simply concluded an alliance under the city. The king of Koryo regarded it as a great shame and humiliation, and swore to the sky: "I wish to use the shade to help, sweep away the bandits, and allow their land to create a Buddhist temple!"

This is because his eyes are red, and he wants to use the Yin soldiers.

The Yin soldiers were not borrowed, but the "Bie Wu Squad" was established. Seeing the silence in the hall, the King of Korea asked, "How is the training of the Divine Cavalry Army, the Divine Infantry Army, and the Demonic Army?"

The Divine Cavalry Army is the cavalry, the Divine Step is the infantry, and the Jiangmo is the monk soldiers. It is the "Biewu Squad" used to deal with the three main arms of the Jurchen, and it is also the mobilization of the whole people of the Koryo Kingdom.

It is really the whole people, from civil and military officials to servants of merchants, all the men in Koryo were mobilized. Those with horses belonged to the God Cavalry Army, and those without horses were divided into Diaodang, Jingong, Jingnu, and Huojun. , the main force is Shenbu, and it is stipulated that men over the age of [-], except for Juzi, belong to it, and then select monks from monasteries to form the demon army.

With Goryeo's worship of Buddha, even the monks were mobilized. This effort is evident.

However, after listening to King Goryeo's inquiry, the corners of the martial arts generals in the palace trembled slightly, obviously showing a bit of reluctance, but they had no choice but to come forward: "I am waiting for the whole day to train, just to live up to the king's grace and to be ashamed." !"

"Okay! Now that the Heavenly Soldiers of Daliao are going out to fight together with me in Koryo to defeat the bandit army, this is the time for the 'Bie Wu Squad' to show its strength!"

King Gaoli raised his voice, and waved his hand with a bit of domineering: "Let the world know that I, Korea, is also one of the most powerful countries. Let the 'Bie Wu Squad' prepare with elites. This king must make a good inspection!"

"Yes!"

Those generals complained secretly, but they didn't dare to neglect in the slightest, and immediately withdrew from the arrangement.

Watching them leave, the anticipation on King Koryo's face dissipated, replaced by a cloud of prey, and said to the prince who stayed behind on purpose: "My son, what do you think of the practice of the 'Farewell to Martial Arts Class'?"

The prince said in a low voice: "Father, the time is short, I'm afraid it's not enough to compete with the strong female straight army."

King Gaoli said coldly: "It's good if you know clearly. Of course this king knows that the straight woman is tyrannical. Such a soldier is not enough to accomplish anything, but it can prevent the ministers from forming a private army and plotting against the law!"

He was the leader of the private army back then, but now he was defeated by the Jurchens and forced to sign a shameful treaty, which greatly damaged his prestige. Of course, he was wary of others going his own way.

Knowing that this man's health has been getting worse and worse in recent years, the crown prince began to really think about himself, so as to prevent the line that was finally won by the coup from being overthrown again, and immediately bowed down: "Please rest assured, my son, I must remember the teaching! "

The King of Koryo really had such intentions. Looking at this heir, his face showed a rare kind of gentleness: "This time, the heavenly soldiers of the Liao Dynasty are attacking women together. This group of thieves and slaves is bound to perish. My real state affairs in Koryo are still here south……"

The prince understood: "Father's intention is the change of the Southern Dynasty?"

The king of Goryeo nodded: "I, Goryeo, established diplomatic relations with the Southern Dynasties and had close contacts. Now the emperor of the Southern Dynasties has fled, the capital has fallen, and the army of Yanyun Township is strong. Even Daliao was forced to sign an alliance and donate new year coins... The general situation of the world has changed dramatically. how do you feel?"

The prince said: "According to my son, the situation in the Southern Dynasty has not yet been settled. I, Koryo, belong to the Daliao Kingdom. I should act according to the will of Emperor Tianzuo. I should not act arbitrarily and take risks..."

King Gaoli raised his brows slightly: "This is the old saying of guarding the country. It is rare at your age, but as a father, you want to hear the truth. Are your diplomatic views really so passive?"

The prince hesitated for a moment. In the past, he had to keep a low profile and dare not show himself too much in front of this tyrannical and cruel father, but now that his position has been completely stabilized, he wants to show his talents to make the other party feel at ease. He said in a low voice: "What do you think the father thinks about the national strength of Daliao?"

King Gaoli's eyes suddenly brightened, he waved his hand, and asked the trusted guards to go out, and after guarding around the palace, he said in a deep voice: "This king only knows that if in the past, Daliao wanted to wipe out all the women and slaves, I will never submit the letter of credence, let me go to Korea to march together!"

The prince said: "Father, Shengming! If Daliao is still the Daliao of the past, no matter how strong the township army is, there will be no alliance between Yan, Liao and Wuzhou. Now they want to offer new year coins to the Southern Dynasty. The Khitan people are no longer the same as before. Be brave!"

The king of Koryo moved his index finger, showing a greedy look: "If the Southern Dynasty Yan replaces Zhao Song, and goes north to attack them, will I, Koryo, have a chance?"

Of course the prince understands that each generation of Koryo kings hopes to extend their sphere of influence beyond the Korean peninsula and become a real big and powerful country, not a vassal state.

Why didn't he have this ambition, so he immediately said: "Of course there is an opportunity. The Liao land is vast and the climate is harsh. Even if the Southern Dynasty can subjugate the country, it can't fully take care of it. At that time, when my long-cherished wish is fulfilled in Korea, face to face. For the great powers of the Southern Dynasties, we should apply both soft and hard, just like the previous Tang Dynasty, when Silla was unified and achieved kingship!"

King Gaoli immediately looked at this son with admiration, and raised his vigilance, but he relaxed after thinking about his physical condition: "You have such talents, so you can feel at ease as a father!"

The prince bowed respectfully, and said in a weeping voice, "It's all due to my father's careful teaching!"

King Gaoli stretched out his hand, helped the son up, and patted his shoulder in relief: "Okay! Okay!"

He was not mistaken. This prince is the future Emperor Ruizong of Goryeo, a fairly wise monarch. When Song Huizong first united with the Kingdom of Jin, Song Ting took the route of Goryeo and sent a lot of money to the Jin people. Supplies, but Ruizong said, "I heard that the imperial court will use troops to attack Liao, and the country of Liao brothers will have enough to defend the border. Jurchens have tiger and wolf ears, and they cannot be handed over." Song Huizong refused to listen.

In fact, the Liao Kingdom sent envoys at that time, and they also said similarly to the Song Dynasty, "Women straight cannibalize the countries. If the Daliao does not survive, they will worry about the Southern Dynasty. Tong Guan, the leader of the army at that time, also refused to listen. , were all dazzled by the glory of recovering Yanyun.

As a result, the Liao army, which was repeatedly defeated by the Kingdom of Jin, was severely defeated, allowing the Jin people to see clearly the weakness and incompetence of the Song Dynasty, and invaded brazenly.

The most stupid thing is that after the Song army was defeated, and finally used money to redeem Yan Yun, who had been looted by the Jin people, he was so complacent that he even delivered an edict to Goryeo, "Now the Liao Dynasty is dead, so you can ask the court." It means that Goryeo formally professes to the Song Dynasty and adopts the reign title of Song Dynasty.

Originally, Goryeo was a vassal state of Liao, but now Liao is gone. The Song court gave Goryeo a lot of benefits in the previous exchanges between the two countries. In Song Huizong's view, Goryeo should take refuge in himself and let Song have one more vassal state.

As a result, Ruizong directly rejected this "good intention" on the grounds that "the worry system is not over." In the time of the ten thousand nations, the moon and the sun can be coordinated and rectified."

Everyone knows what happened in the end, "Zhengshuo" didn't take it seriously, the Jinren went south, and he hunted north...

At this time, Ruizong was still the prince, and the huge Central Plains dynasty had undergone earth-shaking changes. That kind of shame would not happen, but Goryeo's ambitions also rose, and the father and son discussed it.

King Gaoli appreciated the overall strategic situation of this man, and taught in detail how to suppress the domestic opposition forces and consolidate the royal power. He didn't smile until his mouth was dry, and said, "Your Majesty, you are calm, and you Enterprising heart, as a father, I look forward to the day when Goryeo grows stronger in your hands!"

"Father, please rest well and take care of the Eucharist!"

The prince bowed quickly, and retreated respectfully. King Gaoli looked at the wise back of his son, feeling relieved and unwilling, and heaved a long sigh.

What he was most unwilling to do was that besides his own death, the throne he had won so hard would eventually be passed on to others, and in the last two years of his life, he was actually defeated by a group of slaves from the Liao Kingdom, and his reputation was ruined!
Standard late festivals are not guaranteed.

All he was thinking about was the future. At this time, the King of Korea was only thinking about the present. Those Jurchens who had beaten his country's army to the ground should be no match for the Liao people's hundreds of thousands of troops. Under the God of the Buddha!

At this thought, the King of Koryo couldn't help clasping his hands together, closing his eyes, and murmured: "May I use the yin to help, wipe out the bandits, and allow him to create a Buddha world!"

I was praying to the Buddha every day, when a calm voice suddenly sounded in front of me: "Is this what you are asking for?"

King Gaoli was stunned for a moment, then opened his eyes suddenly, and trembled all over his body.

A man in a wide robe with long sleeves and a cold mask stood in front of him, looking down at him.
