Chapter 55 The Great War in the Central Plains (Destroying Korea [-])

Chapter 55: The Central Plains War (Destroying Korea II)

In April of the seventh year of Qianyuan, Chang Yuchun, the pioneer of Deng Jun, took Kunyang lightly, and went to Xiangcheng ten days later, threatening Yangdi, the capital of South Korea, and South Korea was shaken.

Yangdi, the palace

King Han Han Sheng sat weakly on the throne, watching His Highness's ministers quarreling.

The king of Han has been frightened too much in recent years. Eleven years ago, Deng Guo besieged Yang Di once, but fortunately Han and Wei came to his rescue. Three years ago, Chen Guo besieged again, and it was Wei who came. Keep Yang Zhai, now Deng Guo is here again, this time let people live, in recent years, South Korea's elite soldiers and horses have long been wiped out, the result is that the commander of Deng Jun drove straight in, as if entering no one's place territory.

"Masters, Deng Jun has already captured Xiangcheng, and will soon come to Yangyang Zhaicheng, what should we do now?" Han Sheng panicked.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Although the Deng army is coming aggressively, our country can ask for help from Wei and Han. As long as Wei and Han send troops, Deng's army will retreat!" said Xun Zhuang, a senior Korean doctor. The idea of ​​asking for help has always prevailed. In the eyes of the civil servants, although South Korea has been defeated repeatedly and has not won a single battle for so many years, every time it will be rescued by Wei Guo or Han Guo, and every time it will turn danger into safety. I believe there will be no exceptions once, that's why he advised Han Wang not to panic, although we can't fight, but someone can help us fight.

"What the doctor said is true, please be at ease!" All the ministers echoed.

Seeing that everyone was very confident, Han Wang finally settled down a bit.

But the whole of South Korea is not without understanding people. South Korean Prime Minister Zhang Lin is one of them. He is a descendant of Zhang Liang, the Marquis of Liu. However, now that he is an important minister of the Han Dynasty, he is deeply trusted by the King of Han Liu Bang, and he couldn't bear to betray him, so he had to let his second son go to assist the King of Han. For more than 200 years, the Zhang family has always been the top family in Korea, and they have been in high positions in Korea for generations. .

Seeing this situation, Zhang Lin felt sad from his heart. He remembered that when he first became an official, he was also somewhat ambitious. He wanted to strengthen South Korea, so he didn’t have to rely on others. But after more than ten years, South Korea has become weaker and weaker, and the king is cowardly. The generals are afraid of death, the soldiers are afraid of war, the civil servants are drunk and dream of death, the whole South Korea is intoxicated in its own small world and cannot extricate itself, and it is impossible to see the general trend of the world. Taking care of South Korea, it is extremely stupid in Zhang Lin's view to put South Korea's life and death in other people's hands like this.

"My Majesty, now that Wei and Han are preparing for the Central Plains, they are powerless to rescue Korea. Besides, as the king of Korea, how can you be passive and cowardly, and pin your hopes on others? Your Majesty I thought that the king should prepare his army for war at this time, so as to have a chance of survival." Although he was very dissatisfied with the blindly optimistic attitude of King Han and the Korean government and opposition, Zhang Lin, as a native Korean, has been greatly favored by South Korea for generations, At this time of life and death, Zhang Lin still said something that made King Han unhappy.

"Zhang Xiang, what do you mean by that? Are you saying that the king is cowardly?" Xun Zhuang has always been Zhang Lin's deadly enemy, and has been fighting with Zhang Linming for many years. Of course, this opportunity to attack Zhang Lin will not be missed, so Yin Yang said strangely.

"Zhang Lin, aren't you being too presumptuous?" Han Sheng had always been dissatisfied with Zhang Lin, but now he heard Xun Zhuang's instigation, filled with anger in his heart, and reprimanded Zhang Lin.

Zhang Lin knew that what he said would definitely cause Han Wang's displeasure, but at this point, Zhang Lin had to say that if he even retreated, then South Korea would really be hopeless.

Zhang Lindao: "I don't dare, but as the prime minister of Dahan, I have received the grace of the king, so I can't just watch Dahan collapse. Now Dahan has reached the moment of life and death, but the king and the officials are still dreaming of death. The survival of a country rests on others, if you don't speak up, you will be ashamed of the ancient kings of Korea."

"Zhang Lin, you are presumptuous, do you really think I am a widow and dare not kill you?" Seeing Zhang Lin pointing and scolding him by name, Han Sheng suddenly became angry from embarrassment, and threatened to kill Zhang Lin.

But Zhang Lin didn't take Han Sheng's words to heart, and still stubbornly raised his face and said: "Even if the king kills the minister today, the minister will have to say, these words have been held in the minister's heart for so many years, until today I feel that if I don’t speak out, I’m afraid I’ll die in peace, and I won’t have the face to meet the ancient kings of Korea and the ancestors who have dedicated themselves to Korea.”

"Boom!" Han Sheng slapped the desk, furious, and said, "Zhang Lin, you dare to be so presumptuous. Someone, come and take Zhang Lin out and chop him up."

"Your Majesty must not do it. Zhang Xiang is an important minister of the country. He has made great contributions to Korea. How can he be killed at will." Zhang Lin has always had a bad relationship with the Korean officials, and the Korean officials don't like Zhang very much. Lin is a person, but whether they like it or not, they also admire Zhang Lin. He is a very talented person. Seeing that King Han wanted to kill Zhang Lin, they all came out to intercede, even the one who had been against Zhang Lin. Xunzhuang is no exception.

"Come here, put Zhang Lin into the sky prison, I don't want to see him again." Seeing the ministers begging for mercy, Han Sheng was reluctant to go his own way, but he really didn't want to see Zhang Lin again, so he ordered someone to put him into the sky prison .

The guards dragged Zhang Lin out of the hall. Zhang Lin yelled "Foolish King" as he walked, which made Han Sheng even more angry.

Without Zhang Lin, the court meeting went as smoothly as Han Sheng expected. After the court was over, South Korean envoys set off from Yangdi to Changyi to ask for help.

After Chang Yuchun captured Xiangcheng, he hoarded his troops here and stopped going north. This was also Deng Sheng's intention, so as to prevent Chang Yuchun's troops from going deep alone.

Three days after Chang Yuchun captured Xiangcheng, most of Deng Sheng's troops arrived in Xiangcheng. After a short rest, they went north to capture Jiaxian County. At this point, Yangdi was just around the corner.

Deng Sheng hoarded troops in Jia County and watched Yang Zhai. He was waiting for news from Han and Wei. The main force of South Korea had long since disappeared. Although Yang Zhai now has nearly ten thousand troops, Deng Sheng wanted to break through He, I am afraid it will not take a day, but Deng Sheng is still waiting. The painful lesson of Wuzhuang King 11 years ago, Deng Sheng is still vivid in his mind. Back then, Wuzhuang King was just like himself, driving straight all the way, as if entering no one's land , Straight to the city of Yangdi, but rushed too fast, the logistics failed to keep up, and was defeated by a surprise attack by the Wei army and the Han army, so that I almost couldn't go back to Deng.

With the lessons learned from King Wuzhuang, Deng Sheng decisively hoarded troops in Jia County, waiting for news from Wei and Han, and at the same time waiting for his own logistics to catch up. I will give up South Korea and make every effort to prepare for the Central Plains.But not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.

Some people will say, why does it take so long to destroy South Korea in a few days?Deng Sheng also had his own ideas. It is easy to destroy South Korea, but it is not easy to completely defeat the psychology of Koreans. Only after Wei and Han completely abandon South Korea will Deng Guo destroy South Korea.
