Chapter 42

Two days later, the Ming army began to attack the city.

The Ming army's artillery positions occupied Sanjiao Mountain on the west side of Seoul, and trenched artillery and other objects began to shoot at Seoul for a moment.

The capital of Goryeo, which Li had worked hard to manage, was suddenly shrouded in smoke and explosions. In order to resist the Ming army, Li Chenggui mobilized almost all the men in the city, and a bloody battle seemed to be about to break out. In addition to the projectiles, the Ming army also used catapults and crossbows to shoot into the city, and the Ming Dynasty's anti-threat manifesto to fight against the Li family's rebels.

The content is just a re-prompt of the old tune. The person who told the Goryeo military and civilians that the Ming Dynasty was Li. It had nothing to do with ordinary Goryeo people. The Li family usurped the throne and became independent, the heavens were angry and people resented, etc. I hope that the Goryeo military and civilians should not be the scapegoats of the Li family.

Don’t underestimate these things. Perhaps at some point, these things will shake the determination of the Goryeo military and civilians who are guarding the city.

In the Jingfu Hall of the Goryeo Royal Palace, Li Chenggui summoned his ministers again amid the Ming army's artillery fire.

However, in the past month, King Goryeo seemed to have grown older than twenty years old, his temples were covered with white hair, his face was haggard, as if he had no spirit and no fighting spirit. He could stand up with the help of several eunuchs.

The army of Ming Dynasty was outside, and Goryeo was as dangerous as a peacock! Li Chenggui's voice was also extremely weak. He was out of breath when he spoke, and the country was about to fall. What should he do? As he spoke, a few tears came out of his turbid eyes.

I think that Li Chenggui was born into a family of ten thousand households in the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. He was appreciated by the King of Goryeo for his bravery. He repeatedly conquered Japanese pirates and quelled the rebellion.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the Central Plains Red Thiefs Western Route Army first captured Yuan Shangdu, and then fled to Liaodong, almost destroying Goryeo. At that time, Li Chenggui stood up and worked with the Yuan army to defeat the Red Thiefs led by Mr. Guan Zhongyuan, and then turned the tide and saved Goryeo.

His outstanding martial arts gave him great popularity and power in Goryeo, and he finally replaced the King of Goryeo.

He is a hero of a generation.

But now, this hero is in the end.

The front of Seoul is the army of the Emperor's Crown of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming navy behind it is intercepted. It encircled all sides and could not escape with wings.

King! The Goryeo Minister Zheng Dao Chuan spoke slowly, "Prince, surrender!" Seoul can't be defended!

If you can't defend it, you have to defend it! There are more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians in the city. We have the advantage of geographical advantage. The Ming Dynasty is not so easy to break the city! Li Chenggui's second son Li Fangguo shouted.

Shut up! Li Chenggui scolded his son and looked at the ministers again. I knew I couldn't hold on. I had already sent an envoy to the Ming army to surrender, but the Ming people's conditions were to let me leave the city bare-shirt and kneel down to surrender!

As he said, his turbid eyes moved around and his voice hoarsely. The Crown Prince of the Ming Kingdom outside not only wanted to destroy my Li family, but also wanted my Li family to die! If I leave the city, you will not be unable to think of any consequences!

They would be sent to the capital of the Ming Dynasty and tied up like livestock, as gifts for their Ming emperor to sacrifice to heaven.

The ministers were silent. From the beginning of the war, they knew that the Ming Dynasty wanted to replace Goryeo with a new master, an obedient master. The Ming emperor had never truly recognized the orthodox nature of the Li family. Although the imperial court gave him the name of the country, there was no king's title and seal or enthronement edict.

King! Another minister of Goryeo, Ji Congliang, said, "In fact, I think the king does not have to worry so much!" After all, the Ming Dynasty is a country of etiquette. If the king surrenders, the Ming Dynasty will definitely properly resettle the royal family. I heard that the Ming Dynasty captured many royal families of the Yuan Dynasty, and not only did not kill them, but also promised a title and a wealthy salary."

Now that things have come to this, this is the best choice! It is said that the army is 500,000, but even if they cannot conquer it now, the Ming Kingdom still has countless troops of 500,000.

King, how many people can fight in Seoul? If you continue to walk alone, you are afraid that Goryeo will not only destroy its country, but also destroy its seeds!

Besides, Seoul is now an isolated city, and the army is in a bad mood! To put it bluntly, if there are soldiers in the city who are tired of war, if they open the city gate privately, or rebel, and arrest the king and ask for me for me. At that time, there will be no longer any waiting, because you are their prisoner of war!

King, surrender! Only in this way can you have the opportunity to be favored and Goryeo will have vitality!

Li Chenggui was silent, looked at the ministers for a long time, and said indifferently, "To be honest, I have no idea in my mind now. If I don't surrender, I know the consequences. But if I surrender, I am afraid of it too! So, please help me decide. As he said that, he pointed weakly and spoke again. Those who want to surrender stood on the left, and those who don't surrender were standing on the right. There are many people there, so I will listen to someone!

After saying that, he covered his mouth and started coughing violently...

After a few glances at each other, the Goryeo ministers began to take sides under the leadership of Zheng Daochuan and Ji Congliang. Almost all the civil servants stood to the left, with only some loyal generals of the Li family standing on the right.

It seems that there are still many people surrendering! Li Chenggui sighed, his hand slowly released, and a bloody hand fell to the ground.

The blood was so bright red, but at this moment, Li Chenggui's turbid eyes became particularly bright, and the weakness all over his body faded away.

He stared at the ministers who were about to surrender like a tiger, his face full of mockery and coldness, and a bit of hideousness.

How could a generation of heroes be as weak as that?

How could a generation of heroes surrender without fighting?

The reason why they pretend to be weak is just to distinguish the loyalty of their ministers.

That day in the hall, Jing Anjun was right! Li Chenggui slowly took out a box from under the throne, squinted his eyes and said, "You guys, as long as they change their masters, they will still be the same officials. You can surrender, but my Li family cannot surrender!

King...............Ah!

In amazement, Li Chenggui opened the box, and Li Fangyuan's head, who was dying with his eyes closed, rolled out.

Goryeo is Goryeo of the Li family. Since you are unwilling to share life and death with the Li family, what's the point of keeping you? A creepy sneer appeared on Li Chenggui's face.

The moment the words were finished, countless sword-armored soldiers rushed in from outside, surrounding the officials who advocated surrender and slashed at the head.

The magnificent palace instantly turned into a Shura field. Yin Hong's blood, broken limbs and arms were flying in a messy way in his sight.

Ha ha ha ha!

Amid the screams, Li Chenggui smiled wildly.

Then he stood up with his jade belt in his hands and shouted hysterically, since he ascended the throne, I have pursued a major policy and regarded the Ming Kingdom as the best country. I am humble and afraid of being disrespectful to the Ming Emperor. What can I get?

The Emperor of Ming Dynasty said more than once that I was a villain who usurped the throne, and issued an order more than once to rebuke it!

I swallowed my anger and compromised, but what was the exchange for? The exchange for the army of the Ming Dynasty, which was to destroy Goryeo and my ambition!

The screams stopped, the blood flowed into a river of blood in the hall, and the body was everywhere.

Li Chenggui looked at the corpses and said indifferently that if I don’t let me live, I will die together! Seoul will definitely become the tomb of the Ming people! As he said that, he pointed to the corpses of ministers on the ground. The property of these people was confiscated, and the wives and daughters at home were sent to the city walls and rewarded to the soldiers and civilians who were guarding the city for enjoyment!

Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man. Then open the national treasury and tell the military and civilians in the city to kill a Ming army, reward a piece of cloth and five taels of silver!

Amid the crazy shouts, Li Chenggui hung the sword on the jade belt.

I am Goryeo!

If the Ming Dynasty wants to destroy me, it means to destroy Goryeo! If it is defeated, there will be no more Goryeo people in the world, and there will be no more Goryeo species!
