…

After the Jin army withdrew, Li Yan changed the name of the Liaodong Peninsula [m.] to Liaodong County, accepted Qiu Xu as the county magistrate, and appointed Wu Jie as the governor to be responsible for all military affairs of Liaodong County, including the border defense of the Jin Kingdom.

After that, Li Yan ordered Wang Yan to be the commander-in-chief and lead the troops of the headquarters and more than 30,000 of Wu Lin's army to fully recover Goryeo.

Li Yan changed his name to Xuantu County in Goryeo, and his original territorial land was renamed Lintun County. He accepted Guo Yong as the county magistrate of Xuanhu County and accepted Jin Fuzhe as the county magistrate of Lintun County. The two took office immediately, just like Qiu Xu.

In addition, Li Yan also ordered Qiu Xu, Guo Yong, and Jin Fuzhe that all the hundreds of thousands of Yan people he brought from Yanyun this time to move to the three counties of Liaodong County, Xuanqi County and Lintun.

After these orders were issued, Li Yan personally led Jiefan's army and stepped onto the White Army and other troops to the Xijing of Goryeo.

The passes on the road had already been opened up by Yue Fei and Liu Min, and the Liangshan Army was stationed in the army, so Li Yan was unobstructed all the way.

When Li Yan arrived at the Xijing city of Goryeo, he happened to have Wang Kai sent a secret envoy to ask for his visit.

Li Yan asked Liu Qi to meet Wang Kai's secret envoy and listened to his request.

When he learned that Wang Kai was preparing to launch a palace coup to regain power, and then called the feudal tribute, Li Yan and others thought that this must be a scam, and would such a good thing be in the world?

Goryeo Xijing has a long history and is the birthplace of the Korean nation. It has an extremely important position in the history of North Korea.

According to legend, more than two thousand BC, Tanjun (also known as Wang Jian), born to Emperor Tian, ​​the concubine of Huan Xiong and Xiong Nu, established the Kingdom of Korea. The capital Asda is located here, so this city is also known as "Wang Jian City".

After the fall of the Shang Dynasty in China, Jizi, a nobleman of the Shang Dynasty, came to Korea and used this city as the capital, which was "Jizi Korea."

The local people respect Jizi very much and regard him as the ancestor of the Korean nation. Therefore, the status of this city also became sacred and was called "Jicheng".

With the development of history and changes in history, this city has a history of thousands of years (it has been demolished and rebuilt many times in the middle), and has long been built into a capital with extremely complete defense facilities.

In addition, there were 50,000 troops, more than 200,000 people and sufficient food and grass in the city, and led by famous generals like Taku Toshikyong.

So it is difficult to capture the Xijing of Goryeo by gathering Yue Fei, Liu Qi, tens of thousands of elite troops and advanced siege weapons.

In other words, Li Yan and others were worried about how to break through this city?

Under such circumstances, a palace coup would occur within the Goryeo Xijing, and the leader Li Ziqian and the commander Taku Junjing would be captured. Can Li Yan and others believe that such a good thing will be lost in the world?

But I don’t believe it, and I really can’t explain why Wang Kai sent a secret envoy here.

Later, Lou Minzhong boldly assumed that Wang Kaizhen was preparing to launch a coup, and then it all made sense.

Of course, Li Yan and others could not believe the words of the secret envoy sent by Wang Kai.

However, this did not prevent Li Yan from fully agreeing to Wang Kai's request.

If we can really take down the Xijing of Goryeo without bloodshed and complete the unification of the peninsula, we will temporarily give Wang Kai the title of King of Goryeo and a trivial territory? What if Wang Kai wants nothing but to go out of the sky? At most, he is just a Li Yu person.

As for the request of Wang Kai to marry one of Li Yan's daughters as the queen of Goryeo, Li Yan said that if Wang Kai wanted to marry his daughter, he could discuss it in a few years on the grounds that his daughters were all young and the eldest.

In this way, Liu Qi sent Wang Kai's secret envoy back instead of Li Yan, and then waited for the change.

After the secret envoy returned, he told Wang Kai that Li Yan supported Wang Kai to launch a coup and regained the royal power belonging to Wang Kai, and promised to make the Northeast of Goryeo to Wang Kai a vassal state.

Wang Kai was very excited after hearing the secret envoy's report.

But Wang Kai did not completely make up his mind to make a palace coup.

Although Wang Kai was young, his growing environment made him mature earlier than his peers, making him understand that launching a coup at this moment would likely bring disaster to Goryeo.

Just when Wang Kai was eager to try and hesitate, a prophecy came to Wang Kai's ears.

The twelve dragon grandsons (kings) have passed, and there are eighteen sons (Li).

In fact, this prophecy has existed long ago, which was spread by Li Ziqian to usurp the throne.

but

Previously, Wang Kai had been kept in captivity by Li Ziqian, so he didn't know this prophecy.

Now, Jin Can and others who were preparing to help Wang Kai regain their power saw that Wang Kai was a little timid, so they expressed this prophecy to Wang Kai.

really!

When Wang Kai heard this prophecy, he immediately became no longer hesitant and immediately ordered Jin Can and others to prepare.

Soon, Wang Kai invited Li Ziqian and Tuo Junjing to enter the palace on the grounds of discussing a plan to retreat to the enemy, hoping to capture these two powerful traitors in one fell swoop.

pity!

Wang Kai's small actions have long been learned by Li Ziqian.

Li Ziqian was furious and immediately came to Tao Junjing to discuss countermeasures.

After hearing this, Taku Junjing was furious and thought that Wang Kai was a manifestation of disregarding the overall situation.

Faced with Wang Kai's invitation, Li Ziqian did not enter the palace at all. Taku Junjing went there, but he led the army there.

Seeing that the matter was exposed, Wang Kai was stunned.

Under the accumulation of Jin Can and others, Wang Kai personally stepped up the city tower and ordered the soldiers brought by Tao Junjing to disband.

But those soldiers didn't listen to Wang Kai's orders at all.

Takujoon ordered the palace guards to open the palace gate.

The palace guards didn't listen.

In a fit of anger, Takujoong-kyung ordered his soldiers to set fire to the palace.

The fire soon started. Wang Kai and others were scared when they saw this. Wang Kai was so scared that they directly issued an edict to abdicate the throne to Li Ziqian, and then ordered dozens of confidant guards to take him out of the city, hoping to seek protection from the Liangshan Army.

Li Ziqian and Takujunjing did not want any unstable factors in Xijing, so they were ready to kill all the people involved in the coup.

But at this moment, the sound of siege came from outside the city.

This sudden change made Li Ziqian and Taku Junjing very nervous.

Li Ziqian and his brother Privy Councilor Li Zide personally went to the city to replace Tuo Junjing, who suppressed the coup, to guard the city.

But the palace was burning, and Takujoon-kyung, the supreme commander of the Goryeo Army, was not there.

More importantly, the Liangshan Army, who was sieging the city outside, seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to launch a fierce attack without regard to casualties.

When it was almost dawn, all the people involved in the coup were killed by Taku Junjing, and the palace was almost burned, leaving only three pavilions and dozens of corridors of the Neidi Shi Courtyard. Jin Shouxi, the Zhishi Museum, carried the national history and buried it in the north of Shanhuting, which saved the records of the past dynasties from disaster.

Wang Kai was captured, and Li Ziqian didn't want to kill Wang Kai, after all, Wang Kai was his grandson or his son-in-law.

But because Wang Kai launched this Gongyan coup, the southern city was captured by the Liangshan army and the western capital was in danger.

In a fit of anger, Li Ziqian ordered someone to strangle Wang Kai to death.

The fourteen-year-old King Goryeo ended his short life like this.

After that, Li Ziqian and Tuo Junjing led the remnants of Goryeo to fight the Liangshan Army in the streets, trying to resist stubbornly.

pity

The Goryeo Army’s biggest reliance on Xijing City has been broken and its morale has been dispersed. How could it be possible to stop the Liangshan army?

A few days later, Tuo Junjing rushed into the Liangshan army with dozens of personal guards and was killed by a knife. Li Ziqian heard the news and hanged himself at his home. Li Ziqian's younger brother Li Zide led the remnants of Goryeo to surrender. Wang Xiang, the oldest existing royal family, was Li Huiqiao's grandfather, on behalf of the Goryeo royal family, presented a surrender to Li Yan.

Goryeo died.
