After crossing the Yalu River, it seems like you are in two different worlds.
It's obviously midsummer, but if you look around, you can't find any green at all.
The trees on the ground only have trunks and branches. The leaves that should have been lush and green are all gone.
There is even less green grass to see, so that the bare loess is exposed to the field of vision.
Li Hao's heart tightened and he had no idea what was happening.
As I walked, I saw some people bending down and looking for something in the wild fields on both sides of the road.
Li Hao stopped the motorcade and sent someone to call an old man over.
Just looking at the other party's appearance, Li Hao couldn't help but feel pity.
All over his body, only a piece of rag was wrapped around his waist.
It was originally a piece of white cloth, but by now it had been stained with colors and lost its neatness.
Even though it is the capital of North Korea, the depression outside the city is no different from other places.
But the old man had no fear.
Knowing that Prince Zhaoxian and Li Hao both harbored hatred towards the Manchus and had been plotting resistance, the Intelligence Ministry was greatly encouraged and instructed them to guide them.
These nine people have now become Li Hao's staff, working together to advise him.
Back then, he dared to blow up the palace of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, causing Huang Taiji to be seriously injured. Now, it is a piece of cake to kidnap a prince.
"For the future of the country, I will work hard even if I anger my father. Even if I kneel and die in front of him, I will still beg him to change his ways."
Li Hao hadn't done anything yet, but Wang Meicheng and others couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
Even Pyongyang's city walls appear low and dilapidated, with many places even collapsing and not being repaired.
Liu Xishan shook his head repeatedly.
Wang Meicheng and the other two looked at each other and shook their heads without any trace.
In the entire north, it can be said that only the royal palace looks gorgeous and wealthy, which is in sharp contrast with the low and dilapidated houses everywhere in the city.
Li Hao was shaking all over and clenched his fists.
Only Zheng Xianjia always maintained confidence.
The Han man's words were like a heavy hammer, crushing the last bit of Li Hao's joy.
Li Hao was shocked.
The two skinny thighs were like dry firewood sticks that seemed ready to break at any time.
"The nobles eat well, sleep well, and are cared for by so many people. How can we know the suffering of our people? We have no food anymore, so we can only go out to find some grass seeds and leaves to satisfy our hunger. It doesn't matter if the weather is hot,
Is it better than starving to death?”
As the captain, Wang Meicheng has his own opinions.
"Majesty, have you seen this? This is the people's heart. If it doesn't change, it will erupt like a volcano. In the end, only the Korean royal family will be swallowed up."
"Captain, if Lord Fenglin doesn't have enough courage, I'm afraid he won't be able to change anything."
"Li Hao is a bit younger after all, and he definitely can't defeat Li Hao. Over the years, according to our observations, Li Hao has completely lost his ambition. He just wants to keep his power. As for the country and the people, he has no regard for it.
I don’t care. After Li Hao goes back, he will definitely anger Li Hao. The relationship between their father and son will become extremely tense, and Li Hao might kill him."
Only after entering the city and before arriving at the palace, did everyone finally feel the splendor and splendor.
He had no idea that what he would face when he came back this time was North Korea like this.
The remaining eight are Wang Yiwen, Yang Fujii, Feng Sanshi, Wang Wenxiang, Pei Sansheng, Huang Gong, Liu Xishan, and Zheng Xianjia.
Even women bare their breasts and have no sense of shame.
There were no shoes under his feet, both feet were covered with mud, and even a few toenails had been ripped off.
Yes, you can’t live any longer, so why do you care about your shame?
"Gentlemen, I have decided to change North Korea. May you help me,"
"It's hard, hard, Li Hao has no foundation in the country. Even if he wants to resist, he doesn't have enough strength."
The bones on the facial features all protrude outward, making the eyes appear particularly large. However, the eyes are lifeless and covered with a layer of death.
"It doesn't matter what Li Hao does, what matters is his name. If it's really a matter of life and death, we can kidnap him to cause trouble."
The old man was hunched into a ball, his bones were very thin, and his ribs were clearly visible.
When he said this, everyone's eyes lit up.
These nine people were nominally prisoners captured by the Qing army, but in fact they were all agents of the Xia State Intelligence Department.
People in the Ministry of Intelligence have always been very bold.
Looking at it, everyone in the wild, no matter men, women, old or young, all looked exactly like this old man. They looked nothing like human beings.
When they were sent to Li Hao, they immediately passed the news on.
Even the capital city is like this. The decline of the north can be imagined.
It was clear that there was a large group of people in front of them, and they were holding swords and swords, showing an extraordinary momentum. The person asking the question was also gorgeously dressed, and he was either rich or noble.
But now it seems that Li Haokong was determined, but lacked the strength and courage. Especially since he could not overcome the feudal ethics and did not dare to offend Li Haokong.
Wang Meicheng thinks this idea is good.
But Wang Yiwen asked: "If Your Highness insists on your opinion, where will your Majesty go?"
"Don't you have any farming? Why do you have no food to eat?"
Feng Sanshi helped perfect the plan.
Huang Gong was very anxious.
"All the grain we grew was taken away by the officials, and I heard it was given to the Manchus in Liaodong. As for our life and death, when did the officials ever care?"
The old man's eyes were full of anger.
"As long as Li Hao has murderous intentions, we will force Li Hao to leave Pyongyang. We can find a place to raise the uprising flag. Given the current situation in North Korea, I believe countless people will gather around Li Hao."
"Then what should we do? Should we find a way to persuade Li Hao? We must not sit back and let him be captured."
Several people had a heated discussion and finally decided on the plan.
On the way to Pyongyang, Li Hao was always shocked by the desolate scene. In the end, he finally strengthened his determination.
"We don't expect to defeat Li Zhu, we just need to create enough turmoil. But we must coordinate with domestic plans to avoid time differences. When the North Korean military region crosses the border and moves north, it is not up to us to decide what will happen.
"
When they avoided Li Hao, the expressions of the nine people were different again.
"Old man, the weather is hot, why don't you find a cool place to rest? What are you busy with?"
Hearing him mention Li Zhu, Li Hao's eyes were filled with a haze.
When they thought about the bleak road ahead, everyone felt a little discouraged.
This Han man’s name is Wang Meicheng.
In a few days, Pyongyang was finally in sight.
This is enough to show how rebellious, extravagant and lewd Li Ju is today.
This is obviously a sign of national subjugation.
The more this happens in the north, the less difficult it will be for Xia to capture it in the future.
Everyone has seen the opportunity to show off their talents and decided to establish glorious achievements here.
