"This is the only way; there is no other way."
"How about I issue some more militia contracts?"
"Let's gather 20,000 troops and recapture the Great Wall at Zhendonghaikou first?"
Wanyan Chamu suggested.
Pu Jianu shook his head and said, "If the battle here drags on for a month,"
"Then they won't be able to participate in the southern expedition,"
"With the few troops under my command,"
"How can we then attack Hebei, the capital of the Ming Dynasty?"
Wanyan Chamu questioned, "Move inland ten miles from the coast,"
What should be done about the salt fields in various locations?
Pu Jianu was speechless.
There is absolutely no solution to this.
They were just taking advantage of the Jin Dynasty's terrible navy.
Pu Jianu thought for a moment: "Order Goryeo to send troops."
"Otherwise, we'll take back Baozhou!"
.....
People in the coastal areas of the Jin Dynasty
There are no plans to relocate inland at the moment.
Wanyan Chamu led her troops to Yanjing.
Go and meet up with Wanyan Zongwang.
They will march south to fight as soon as they have enough supplies.
Pu Jianu, however, remained in Huacheng County.
He personally defended the county town.
The local military commander, Pusa, was ordered to defend Huacheng Pass.
At the same time, envoys were sent to Goryeo.
He ordered the King of Goryeo to send troops to help.
Help him reclaim the Great Wall at Zhendonghaikou.
Chapter 1983 Settling Down
Zhao Li's repeated attempts to attack Huacheng Pass failed.
They might as well set up cannons on the Great Wall.
Every day, we bombard the fortified city with several waves of fire.
As for the people of various ethnic groups who traveled south by boat
They then choose a place nearby to settle down.
Meanwhile, the messenger traveled at breakneck speed.
They traveled to Goryeo under the stars and moon.
He met King Gogu of Goryeo in Pyongyang.
Wang Gou is eighteen years old this year.
Although there was a history of consanguineous marriage in the family for generations of ancestors
This can lead to various congenital diseases.
His physical condition is not very good.
But their strategies and methods are absolutely brilliant.
His father married a close relative.
All of the queen's children died young.
All of my older brothers are dead.
He was a son born out of wedlock to a concubine.
Only then could he successfully become the King of Goryeo.
Then, his maternal grandfather began to control the government.
He wielded immense power and no one could subdue him.
My grandfather even deposed his queen.
He was forced to marry his two aunts.
That is, his biological mother's younger sisters.
Last year, seventeen-year-old Wang Gou decided to rebel.
The failure was due to a leak of information.
All his close associates who followed him in launching the coup were killed.
He sent someone to beg his maternal grandfather for mercy.
She said she was willing to abdicate in favor of her maternal grandfather.
But his grandfather refused.
They also burned down his palace.
He was placed under house arrest in a residence.
It was during house arrest that...
Wang Gou relayed the message through the imperial physician.
She successfully sowed discord between her maternal grandfather's in-law, Tuo Junjing (who had military power).
It only took six months,
Wang Gou then regained his freedom.
He then exiled and assassinated his grandfather.
It took another three months,
Kill Taku Jun-kyung, who helped him regain his position!
He's only eighteen!
Two powerful ministers were killed in succession.
He held absolute power and was full of vigor.
"My dear minister, the Jin Kingdom has requested my military assistance,"
"They even used Baozhou (Baozhou) as a threat,"
"Should we help the Jin Kingdom fight against the Ming Kingdom?" Wang Gou asked.
Emperor's father-in-law, Ren Yuanhou, replied, "Your Majesty can give a verbal agreement."
"It will take time to postpone recruiting soldiers and requisitioning provisions,"
"At the same time, we sent people to the Ming Dynasty to gather information."
"The Jin Kingdom has ordered us to send troops,"
"They must not have enough troops,"
"The elite forces have all been transferred to fight against the Ming Dynasty."
"If the Jin dynasty wins, we will send troops to help them,"
"Help them retake the Great Wall."
"If the Ming Dynasty wins, we will no longer acknowledge the relationship between the Ming and Jin Dynasties as father and son."
"At that time, we can formally submit to the Ming Dynasty and pay tribute."
"And they sent troops north of the Yalu River,"
"To seize more land and people from the Jin Kingdom,"
"Your Majesty will surely become the greatest Goryeo king!"
Wang Gou nodded and said, "My dear minister, you are mature and prudent."
"This plan allows for flexible maneuvering and should be considered a sound strategy for the country."
Ren Yuanhou bowed and withdrew.
Wang Gou sat alone in the palace.
The last Goryeo envoy to pay homage to Jo Yeon was Lee Ja-ryong.
He has already been killed by Wang Gou.
Because Li Ziliang is his maternal grandfather's cousin!
In order to win over the powerful families in the country
To consolidate his throne,
He recalled the deposed Queen Ren.
He also took a woman from the Jin family as his concubine.
The Ren and Jin families
They are now Wang Gou's strong backing.
As for those two aunts who were also wives...
It has been completely abolished by Wang Gou.
Wang Gou studied Confucian classics from a young age.
I don't want to marry between close relatives anymore.
However, due to ancestral precepts, this system cannot be abolished for the time being.
Whenever I think of my maternal grandfather's family,
Wang Gou was furious.
He burned down his own palace in Gaegyeong.
This has forced him to come to Pyongyang, the capital of Kyiv.
"Your Majesty, the Venerable Miaoqing requests an audience!" a palace attendant reported.
Wang Gou smiled and said, "Please come in quickly."
Chapter 1984 The Troubled Monk
Monk Miaoqing came from the prominent Liu family.
He was regarded as a saint in Goryeo.
It has a huge influence.
After Wang Gou killed his maternal grandfather...
He also killed the powerful minister Tuo Junjing.
It was by leveraging the power of the Miaoqing faction.
After the monk Miaoqing finished his worship,
