Jiang Wan actually hasn't paid much attention to North Korea's affairs in the past month.
After Shen Juncen and Li Qingxuan's troops recaptured the small mountain city, he strictly ordered Mei Xiaofei not to lose the small mountain city again. Most of the time after that, he focused on the affairs of Gushan Fort and Liaoyang.
All transportation from Liaoyang to Zhenjiang Fort has been cut off. Occasionally, people come from Liaoyang or Kaizhou and bring some news. It seems that there is no news of a large-scale outbreak of plague.
But Jiang Wan still dared not take it lightly.
The military and civil affairs yamen mobilized almost all their strength to fix the people in the overseas towns, military forts and farms as much as possible in the towns, military forts and farms where they lived. On the roads extending in all directions from Zhenjiang Fort, except for one
A galloping horse in military uniform, with almost no ordinary people walking around.
In addition to the military being on high alert, almost all activities in the entire Zhenjiangbao area have come to a standstill. Under this situation, let alone outsiders coming to the village or town, even people from different villages and towns are strictly prohibited from moving around each other.
On the Liaoyang side, with Liaoyang and Kaizhou as buffers, Jiang Wan was not worried about the crazy Tatars rushing into his face. But on the Gushan Fort side, he had no one to count on. Apart from a tight defense, he
All we can do is make preparations for additional troops.
At this time, he had no time to care about how a bunch of Koreans were fighting each other.
Even one of the Koreans raised an army brazenly with his instruction and support.
But the news finally came from North Korea, and Li Zicheng, who got the news, found him immediately and told him the good news.
"That's it. We haven't been fighting for a month yet?"
Jiang Wan was caught off guard: "In other words, Li Shi, who was regarded as a general by Li Zhu, deceived all the troops in Li Zhu's hands, and then turned against his king!"
"That seems to be the case, but that Li Shi didn't want to be the king himself!" Li Zicheng chuckled: "He is very smart and knows that anyone can be the king, but he is not, so he might as well give up on that thought!
"
"Then who is calling the shots over there now, who is the new king?" Jiang Wan was a little curious.
This incident was not what he expected at all. If he were the butterfly that traveled through time, now he flapped his wings and stirred up not a small breeze, but a strong wind.
Especially for North Korea!
He didn't even know if such a scene had ever happened in the history of Korea. The only thing he clearly remembered was that even more than two hundred years after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, Korea still used the Chongzhen reign title.
In other words, even if this kind of thing really happened, the Li dynasty would not be overthrown and replaced by another dynasty.
In fact, this is also the reason why Jiang Wan is not very clear about the history of Korea. In the history of Korea, Li Shi's rebellion really happened. However, after Li Shi fled the royal city, he gathered officers and soldiers from all over the country and defeated them in one fell swoop.
Li Shi's army was defeated and the rebellion was put down.
In the history of Korea, this was the famous "Li Shi's Rebellion!"
Of course, the current Li Shi obviously did not have time to escape from the royal city, and the strength of the army in Li Shi's hands now is far stronger than that of Li Shi at that period in history.
However, Jiang Wan really didn't care much about all this.
In one sentence: "So what?"
"Right now, it seems that the two Confucian scholars around the original king, plus Li Shi, plus two people from the Shen family and the Li family, are handling the important affairs of the government together. As for the new king they supported, he is just a little kid, a
He's just a puppet on the throne, no one takes him seriously!"
"It seems that they have learned a lot from our Ming Dynasty!" Jiang Wan smiled slightly. This kind of thing of supporting the new king as a puppet after the coup is really a familiar admiration and a familiar taste!
"Now they are talking to Shen Juncen about the armistice. Shen Juncen asked your Excellency for instructions on how to deal with it. In addition, we previously proposed the establishment of a North Korean comfort mission. They said it was completely acceptable, but he hoped to stop the fighting between the coalition forces and them as soon as possible.
Just so that they can deploy troops and horses to quell the pirates in their south!"
"The war can cease!"
Jiang Wan nodded: "It is up to Shen Juncen and Li Qingxuan to decide how to stop and how to fight. However, there is one thing. Shen Juncen and Li Qingxuan must enter the decision-making level of the North Korean court. They can decide what official positions they want, and we don't need to interfere!
"
"Understood!" Li Zicheng nodded: "That Li Shi can't stay!"
"He can't die now!" Jiang Wan frowned: "This guy has soldiers and horses in his hands, and he will definitely hold on to them. He knows that this is the foundation of his life. If he really wants to touch him, this battle will be terrible.
It’s not in our interests to just fight endlessly!”
Jiang Wan said: "Let's keep him for now. Let's see if he knows what's interesting. A stable North Korean comfort envoy who can control the situation is much more important than a guy who can be eliminated at any time!"
"I'll reply to them right away!" Li Zicheng nodded and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute, is there no news from the mercenaries all over the world?" Jiang Wan asked curiously. Between Zhenjiang Fort and the mercenary group that came ashore, there were two North Korean armies fighting fiercely, and even a North Korean royal city.
, basically the news over there cannot be transmitted without taking the sea route.
"There is no news yet, but it must have caused a lot of trouble for the North Koreans. Do you need to inquire about their news?"
Li Zicheng asked. He was actually very curious.
"No, I'm just asking casually. If the news can be transmitted, it will be transmitted naturally!" Jiang Wan smiled and shook her head: "That girl Yanran is probably waiting for news about the mercenary group in Ryukyu.
Maybe she is more anxious than us!"
"I don't think so!" Li Zicheng was excited for a moment: "Sir, I'm not curious. Is the second lady's ability to predict the unknown real or just bragging? There are many generals in the army who believe it.
The second young lady really has these magical powers. They say that the second young lady and you are both from the stars in the sky and come down to earth. It’s just that you came down a little earlier, and the second young lady came down a little later. As a result, when you get to the human world, you two are completely different.
!”
"This is all such a mess!" Jiang Wan was stunned, and suddenly felt confused about whether to laugh or cry.
"Anyway, I think if the second lady really has these magical powers, she would already know what kind of fight her soldiers and horses are doing at a glance, and there is no need for her subordinates to report the news!"
"Then according to what you said, I can figure it out, so why don't I know the news?" Jiang Wan laughed.
"That's different. Even the stars in the sky have different abilities. The master's abilities and the second miss's abilities naturally have their own strengths. Otherwise, why would the master be the eldest brother and the second miss the younger sister?"
"That's nonsense!" Jiang Wan waved her hand and drove Li Zicheng away like a fly: "Go and do your business, just mess around and think about something all day long. I don't even know what I'm capable of. You already know, so get out!"
