The sound of horse hoofbeats sounded like thunder, and hundreds of cavalrymen in yellow jackets, surrounded by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty Aisin Gioro Xuanye, who was once again leading a personal expedition, walked in the middle of his large army.

In front of and behind him were countless yellow, white, red, blue, yellow, white, red, blue and other eight-color flags flying, as well as endless cavalry and infantry. The Qing Dynasty's 100,000-strong army

, is now on its way to North Korea.

The troops following Kangxi included, in addition to the old and new Eight Banners headquarters, cavalry recruited from the four Mongolian alliances still affiliated to the Qing Dynasty: Zhelimu League, Zhuosuotu League, Zhaowuda League, and Xilin Gol League.

Some tribal warriors from the Barhu and Sauron tribes who had to seek refuge with the Qing Dynasty due to Tsarist Russia's expansion in Siberia and the outer northeastern region had to find a way out. In addition to the four Mongolian alliance flags, there were still some remaining forces, as well as a small number left behind.

In addition to the Qing soldiers in the Liaodong Peninsula and the Western Liaoning Corridor, all the Qing's elite soldiers and generals outside the Pass have been subordinated to the Emperor Kangxi, who personally led the expedition. There are a hundred thousand infantry and cavalry, and the food, wages and equipment have been saved by drinking poison to quench thirst in the past two years.

The old foundation we have laid is still sufficient for now.

At this time, every Qing army officer's face was filled with joy, and with the sound of golden drums, their morale was high - Emperor Kangxi had told them that North Korea was rich in ginseng, dongzhu, tiger skin, beauties, and had a population as high as

Ten million... As long as they can be defeated this time, Kangxi himself only wants the princess Ming'an, and all other wealth, beauties, and slaves will be distributed to the meritorious soldiers.

This kind of public encouragement of looting is an ancestral tradition of the Qing Dynasty! Even the "sage emperor and benevolent lord" Emperor Kangxi allowed the army to burn, kill and loot when he attacked Bourne in history, and even deceived his subordinates into saying that Bourne was

A direct descendant of the Yuan Dynasty, all the treasures that Genghis Khan robbed during his expeditions were hidden in his home...

Just relying on these deceptive words, Kangxi and Tuhai coaxed a group of slaves into the battlefield!

Although Genghis Khan's treasure was fictitious, the nobles and herdsmen of the Chahar tribe were unlucky.

And the North Korea proposed by Kangxi this time is much more reliable than Chahar... A country with a population of eight to nine million will never be too poor. Even if there is really not much property to grab, the population itself

It’s also wealth!

Back then, Huang Taiji invaded North Korea twice to steal money, grain, and slaves, which greatly alleviated Hou Jin's economic difficulties.

It is no exaggeration to say that without these two Korean battles, especially the Korean battle in the first year of Tiancong, the Later Jin Dynasty would have collapsed before Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne.

With these two wonderful memories, isn't everyone's morale high?

And Kangxi himself was also very interested. Li Wenji, who had the power to know the state affairs of North Korea, was quite attractive to him... He had already inquired with Deng Guangming and Yu Chenglong, and he knew that Li Wenji was indeed a beauty!

Conquering a young beauty who has the power to know the state affairs of North Korea is really a sense of accomplishment!

In addition, the 10,000 to 20,000 Ming troops who came across the sea from the south of the Yangtze River were also extremely tempting to Emperor Kangxi.

Because the struggle between the Qing Dynasty and Wu Zhou could be regarded as a victory - Wu Sangui was said to have been poisoned to death by Kong Sizhen, and Kong Sizhen was the princess of the Qing Dynasty and was sent by the Empress Dowager to Wu Yingxiong. So Kangxi naturally sent Wu Sangui to Wu Yingxiong's side.

He took the credit for his death.

After the death of Wu Sangui, Wu Zhou has been divided into two. Wu Yingxiong and Wu Yingqi obviously took the script of Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan... They just haven't started fighting for the time being, but they will definitely not be able to stop for long.

According to the intelligence obtained by Kangxi, Wu Yingqi, who had retreated to Shaanxi, had been fighting fiercely with Burni in the past two years. He also used gunpowder and iron tools to obtain many war horses from Burni, and continued to expand his army in Shaanxi.

He shouted that he wanted to "avenge the Qing Dynasty", but the actual purpose, as anyone with a discerning eye knows, was to counterattack Jiangling and seize Wu Yingxiong's empire.

And Wu Yingxiong has also been working hard in the past two years to accumulate strength... He said he wanted to defeat Zhu Heji, the "enemy who killed his father", but he did not expand the navy at all. Instead, he expanded the land division and used a large number of Guangxi troops

Baitang received a large number of war horses from the Qing Dynasty, and it was clear that he was going to have a battle with Wu Yingqi.

Kangxi estimated that as long as the Qing Dynasty and the Pseudo-Ming Dynasty started fighting, Erwu would be killed.

If two Wus fight, both sides will lose!

After both sides suffered losses, Wu Zhou had nothing to worry about.

Therefore, the future world will not be in the Qing Dynasty, but in the Ming Dynasty!

And Zhu Heji obviously understood this very well, so he paid little attention to the Wu brothers. He didn't even unify the Yangtze River Basin, and didn't even capture the land of Jingchu, so he attacked the north first. He also used his sea power

The advantage directly pinpoints the key point of North Korea.

But Zhu Heji was still one move away! No, three moves away!

Kangxi thought to himself: "He must not have thought that I would lead an army of 20,000 to inspect the autumn harvest in Shengjing... In this way, the number of Qing soldiers in Liaodong would be 20,000 more than he knew, and they could be gathered quickly.

It will also be faster.

He would never have thought that I had known for a long time that the traitor Prince Zhu Third was secretly training troops and collecting food in Dengzhou!

Moreover, the weather is getting colder and colder now, and the soldiers from the south cannot adapt to the bitter cold in Liaodong and North Korea.

This time I can finally defeat Zhu Heji, the greatest traitor in the world!"

Just when Kangxi was proud, a group of knights suddenly ran up from the front of the team. The leader of the knights was Zhou Peigong, the leader of the Confucian Chao Hall and one of the five Confucian leaders.

Seeing "Zhou Qiuguang", the joy on Emperor Kangxi's face gradually disappeared, and he quickly reined in the horse, then frowned as he watched the opponent turn over and dismount, and saluted him respectfully.

"Long live my lord, I have received two secret reports from Jiangnan and Jiangbei... Among them, the secret report from Jiangnan said that at least 10,000 puppet Ming troops were discovered at Wusong Port in Shanghai County, Songjiang Prefecture, and boarded a ship parked there.

The fleet, and also discovered Zhu Heji’s favorite concubine Ye! And when Ye appeared, the Ming army who was boarding the ship shouted long live!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Kangxi nodded: "Zhu Heji has come to North Korea!"

Zhou Peigong added: "Your Majesty, the emperor is wise, but a secret report from Jiangbei said that thousands of Ming troops and Ye Yuling were also found boarding the ship at Qingjiangpu in Huai'an Prefecture. The Ming troops also shouted long live."

Kangxi was not too surprised, "It's just a mystery...it's not a big deal."

Zhou Peigong went on to say: "In addition, the secret report from Jiangbei also mentioned the personnel changes in the puppet Ming Dynasty... Zhuge Sanhe left Jiangxi, Yang Xiuqing worshiped the right prime minister, Yu Zhongxian moved to the left prime minister, and Zhu Cijiong returned to Nanjing to act on his behalf.

Supervise state affairs!”

The personnel changes in Nanjing are not confidential and will be published in newspapers such as Confucian Daily, so Zhou Peigong will know about them soon.

"Then..." Kangxi squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, "Zhu Heji is definitely no longer in the country." He then said to himself, "Zhuge Sanhe is handsome and talented, and at the same time Zhu Heji is

As his confidant, he was stationed in Jiangxi, and Wu and Zhou would not dare to act rashly.

Yang Xiuqing is Zhu Heji's eldest brother-in-law, and Yu Zhongxian is Zhu Heji's godfather...these two sit in the center and assist the third prince Zhu, so there will be no trouble."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Zhou Peigong sent another compliment, and then he added: "Your Majesty, I think Zhu Heji will probably station in Dengzhou..."

Kangxi smiled: "Zhou Peigong, you are guessing again!"

"Slave..."

Zhou Peigong wanted to say something else, but Kangxi waved his hand and said: "Zhou Peigong, let me tell you clearly... This time Zhu Heji, whether in North Korea or Dengzhou, I can beat him!

Because I have seen through his trick a long time ago, he just wanted to use the strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain to deal with me. But he forgot that I have an army of 300,000, and Galdan has already captured Burni, and my three

A hundred thousand troops can be used against him.

And it is already October. It has already snowed in many places in Liaodong and western Liaoning, and it will soon snow heavily in North Korea... In the ice and snow, I am not afraid of his Southern Army!
