The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 513 A Wordless Farewell

Kaesong.

The capital of North Korea today.

After Li Chenggui was forced to abdicate by his son, he was taken hostage to Kaicheng, and Kaicheng was renamed Kaijing.

Although Seoul is no longer the capital, it is still the most prosperous and populous area in North Korea.

Goryeo's houses were built low, and so were the royal palaces.

People thought that the Supreme King Li Chenggui, who lived in seclusion, never went out, and only the eunuchs knew about it.

It's not that the Supreme King doesn't like to go out, but he is shy about meeting people.

Li Chenggui felt that he was so embarrassed when the founder of the country fell into the present situation, so he never went out during the day and only left the main hall at night.

"Businessmen from the Ming Dynasty are all over my country, and I heard that they are recruiting women." Li Chenggui put his hands behind his back.

The king of North Korea cannot call himself me, but a mere mediocrity.

However, Li Chenggui is not so honest, and he will also behave contrary to etiquette in private.

The second generation King of Korea, Li Bangguo, did not understand his father's words and nodded honestly.

Looking at the appearance of his second son, Li Chenggui felt helpless.

It would have been better if he had given way to the youngest son Li Fangshuo earlier, just like Emperor Hongwu of the previous dynasty, even if he had delegated power.

Li Chenggui had two princesses successively.

The first princess left behind five sons, and the subsequent princess left two younger sons.

The eldest son died of illness.

The second son is Li Fangguo in front of him.

Li Chenggui had never looked down on Li Fanguo. This son only knew how to have fun, and now he didn't even have a queen.

Entrusting the country to him will inevitably lead to disaster.

It would not work if I left it to the third child. The third child is a student who is stupid at reading and has no interest in political matters.

It was handed over to the fourth child. The fifth child and the younger brothers were not convinced. After much deliberation, they decided to hand it over to the youngest child.

The youngest is talented, and his mother is a princess. With the support of his maternal clan, he can solve many hidden dangers.

But Li Chenggui was reluctant to delegate power.

Sudden.

Too sick to get out of bed.

Lao Si and Lao Wu joined forces to rebel and launched a coup, killing Lao Liu and Lao Qi, as well as their biological mother.

Both the fourth and fifth children wanted to be the king themselves, and neither one wanted to give in, so they first let the second child, Li Fangguo in front of Li Chenggui, be the king.

Because the second brother Li Fangguo had no children, there was no heir. The third brother did not intervene in the battle for the throne, leaving time for the fourth and fifth brothers to fight.

The two men each hold military power in North Korea, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that civil war is about to break out.

God seemed to have played a joke on Li Chenggui.

During that time, everyone who suffered from Li Chenggui's illness thought he was going to die, and he was indeed unable to do anything.

But he was still reluctant to delegate power, thinking that after his death, Yaozi would ascend the throne according to his own edict.

As a result, after the coup of Lao Si and Lao Wu, their illness actually recovered.

"The previous Shang Dynasty is no longer the same."

Li Chenggui reminded.

Ever since he inquired about Crown Prince Yan's personality, Li Chenggui had keenly discovered that this Crown Prince Yan was different.

Sure enough, now he suddenly became the emperor's grandson.

Li Chenggui is envious.

This is the true rule of three generations. Looking back at himself, Li Chenggui was very sad and angry, and worried about the future of North Korea.

The upper court next door was already eyeing him, but his two sons were still gathering strength to prepare for the next round of decisive battle for the throne.

Li Chenggui thought about it and decided that he could not continue like this.

He wanted to be a middleman, bring his two sons together, and deal with the outside world in unison, and he could not allow Ming Dynasty to mess around in North Korea.

To the west of Kaicheng, hundreds of miles away is Haizhou, which is also the area where Zhou Chengsheng and his family went.

Li Chenggui's fourth son controlled the military power in the northwest.

Zhou Chengsheng's family left and returned to the dock to wait for the Jinzhou ship.

On the road.

Encountering an army marching, the family, like the Koreans next to them, waited obediently on the roadside.

Zhou Chengsheng raised his head and looked at the vassal army curiously.

Sudden.

With a loud shout, the general on horseback in the team stared at Zhou Chengsheng fiercely, so frightened that Zhou Chengsheng's father almost knelt down.

The woman, who was holding her three-year-old child, was also frightened and at a loss.

Several soldiers ran over.

"I am from the Ming Dynasty, and I have not broken any laws." Zhou Chengsheng said loudly.

The general actually understood Ming Dynasty Mandarin. He immediately stopped the soldiers and looked deeply at Zhou Chengsheng. Perhaps he didn't want to get into trouble, so he actually rode away.

The people around them didn't know what happened, why this family made the general angry, but they were safe.

Zhou Chengsheng's father took Zhou Chengsheng's hand and left quickly, no longer daring to stay here for a long time. The woman took her youngest son's hand and hurriedly followed him.

In the end there were no surprises.

The family waited for the ship from Jinzhou and took the cargo ship back to Jinzhou.

The docks in Jinzhou are different.

The place is bustling with people, lined with shops, and bustling with activity.

After the family had lunch at a roadside restaurant, the man breathed a sigh of relief and felt more at ease.

Still your own home.

No wonder the ancients said that a golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own doghouse.

From the pier to the forest farm, there is a large area of ​​​​Pianjing area in the middle, where military households from Jinzhou live, waiting for the bus.

"what."

The childish voice attracted people on the platform.

Dozens of children aged six, seven, eighty or nine were riding on horseback, carrying wooden knives. They were trying hard to control the horses under them under the scoldings of hundreds of guardsmen.

"Crackling."

There are five columns and six rows of horses in a row, maintaining a tight formation. The speed of each horse must be controlled appropriately, and it must advance neither too fast nor too slowly.

"receive."

Baihuguan shouted sternly.The children put away the wooden knives they were holding flat.

"Shh."

There were waves of voices coming out uniformly.

Zhou Chengsheng stayed at school on weekdays, and there were horse racing classes in school, but they were different from those of children from military families.

He knew that this was where children from military families went to social school.

Most of the children of military households did not go to school, but to the social studies organized by themselves in their guardhouses.

"Hahaha."

There was another sound of horse hoofbeats, and a dozen teenagers galloped past on big horses, carrying behind them matchlock muskets that had been eliminated from the army, leaving behind a burst of smoke and dust.

The angry Baihu official cursed loudly.

The children couldn't help coughing and scolded Baihuguan.

The young men who are far away are their brothers, so what, it does not prevent them from yelling at you.

Zhou Chengsheng felt a little envious in his heart.

In the other person's body, he seemed to feel another kind of power, a civilized atmosphere different from that of the school.

go to school.

Word has spread around the school.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has expanded his territory by five thousand miles."

"Our Ming Dynasty not only regained its homeland, but also opened up new lands, but also acquired the old name of Anxi Dusi."

"Nuergan Dusi, Anxi Dusi, Liaodong Province, Kaiping Province, Daning Province, Beipingping Province, Sainan Province, Saibei Region, Henan Province, Shandong Province, Shanxi Province, Shaanxi Province, The Western Province..."

There are ten provinces in the north, two capitals and one region.

Nuer Gandusi was demoted back to Dusi because of population problems.

"Sichuan Province, Guizhou Province, Yunnan Province, Guangxi Province, Guangdong Province, Fujian Province, Jiangxi Province, Zhejiang Province, Huguang Province, Uzangdusi, Duogandusi, Yingtianfu."

"I heard that Huguang Province will be split into Hubei Province and Hunan Province."

"Then our Ming Dynasty is divided into 21 provinces, four capitals, one region, and one capital."

After the nine-day holiday, the students were very lively and chattering.

The members of the dance club proposed to choreograph a new dance.

The members of Cuju Club and Bamboo Ball Club were running on the field under the sun as usual.

The bell for class rang.

The sound of reading came from the classroom.

……

"Dangdangdang."

Jiayuguan is full of soldiers.

On the train platform in Jiayuguan, trains were parked one after another, and the prince's flag was raised high.

Tell people that King Yan is here.

When the army returned, there were also supplies brought back by the army. The supplies they brought back piled up like mountains and filled the warehouse of the entire station.

In the open field, the materials on the hillside connected to the hillside made people worry about rain.

"Wow."

"Wow."

A group of soldiers walked neatly, came to stand outside the carriage, and then boarded one by one to go home. Everyone's face was full of smiles.

Although the station looks chaotic, the soldiers everywhere actually maintain order and do their own thing.

Li Jian sensitively sensed something.

Turned around suddenly.

The sharp eyes like an eagle met a pair of deep eyes staring at him, which contained a cruel indifference to human life.

"Zhao Hong."

Li Jian stretched out his hand and pointed at his friend whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Although the two of them were fighting in the northwest, they had never seen each other, and they did not inquire about anyone else.

As a soldier, you have the consciousness of being wrapped in horse leather.

Zhao Hong's sentry team has already boarded the carriage, and all sentries are not allowed to leave without authorization. The train will start at any time, so Zhao Hong looks at Li Jian from a distance.

The young man who drew the sword for his mother had dark skin and invisible murderous intent after years of fighting.

I don’t know how many lives were contaminated.

In the innocent eyes, the innocence of the past disappeared without a trace. Zhao Hong was no longer there, replaced by the sentry officer Zhao Hong.

What kind of head brings out what kind of soldiers.

Just as in the capital, in order to express his inner hatred, Wu Zhenmeng, who did not take the normal route and caused a serious murder case, was the captain brought out by Li Jian.

The two looked at each other.

Through eye contact, you can feel the changes in the other person, just like mourning for someone who is no longer here.

Li Jian turned around.

Leading his sentry team to leave the station, they will set off tomorrow and need to rest outside the station today. The two good friends have no chance to communicate.

People from all over the country gathered to fight together, fought for more than a year, and then dispersed and returned to where they came from.

With a wave of his sleeves, he does not take away a cloud.

A wordless farewell.

Waiting for the next reunion.

Zhu Di stood in front of the glass window on the second floor, looking at the team below the stage.

Zhu Neng, Wang Cong, Chen Gui, Tan Yuan, Liu Zhen, Zhou Xing, Pingan, Zhao An, Sheng Yong and other generals.

Liaodong, Daning, Peiping, Jingying, Shaanxi, Shandong...

Elite generals from all over the country are waiting for orders from His Highness the Crown Prince.

"Exit."

Zhu Di looked away.

Some can't bear to see the boys outside the window.

There is no such thing as a feast that lasts forever.

King Yan's order was passed down, and all the generals returned to camp. Those who left left, and those who were waiting to leave continued to wait.

Soon after the station received the news, the first train pulled out of the platform.
