My life skills in Daming Liver

Incheon.

This is the closest port to Seoul, the royal city of North Korea. However, after North Korea implemented a seclusion, the Incheon Port was also blocked, and the Incheon Road defense was set up and turned into a military port.

However, during the hundreds of years when the Ming Dynasty was strong and prosperous, North Korea was very submissive, and Incheon, which faced the Ming Dynasty across the sea, encountered almost no crisis.

The North Korean navy also declined very quickly in the past hundred years. The two-class system gave birth to a large number of hereditary nobles who only wanted to enjoy and compete for power in the court. The Incheon Defense Envoy could not even come to Incheon once a year.

Not only the Incheon defense envoys, but also the mid-level officers in Incheon and above all belong to the civil and military ranks. These positions have become hereditary noble titles and are monopolized by several families.

These families have lived in Seoul for generations, and no one is willing to come to this remote military port to take office.

Some officers have even never been to Incheon.

Under such circumstances, the combat effectiveness of the Incheon Defense Road can be imagined.

The yangban system in North Korea makes the yangban nobles regard ordinary people as untouchables. In fact, it is not just ordinary people who are no different from two-legged sheep in the eyes of the yangban nobles, even those who are middle-aged, that is, the children of the family. , those of the same race who can only get low-level positions are also two-legged sheep.

The descendants of declining officials like Yi Sun-shin were also looked down upon by people like them.

In the port of Incheon, military households no longer train in military camps. Some of them have even been engaged in fishing for generations, and they only wear military uniforms when someone inspects them.

This is also the reason why Yi Sun-shin chose to land in Incheon. By attacking in the east and west, he attracted North Korea's efforts to Busan, and he landed with the main force from Incheon, aiming for Seoul, which is less than a day's journey from Incheon!

Sure enough, everything was as Yi Sun-shin expected. The defenders of Incheon could be said to have no combat effectiveness.

The siege of Incheon Port began at nine o'clock in the morning that day, and Incheon Port surrendered in less than half an hour.

Yi Sun-shin sent two thousand Jeju Island troops and one thousand Donghae Trading Company mercenaries to the case before twelve noon.

Yi Sun-shin led the soldiers to rest for an hour, and before night fell, he led the soldiers quickly eastward and headed straight for Seoul, the capital of North Korea.

Incheon was too close to Seoul, and Yi Sun-shin knew that even if the North Korean monarchs and ministers pulled back, they would not be able to hide the news of his landing.

Therefore, Yi Sun-shin's plan this time was not to capture Seoul with a blitzkrieg and directly capture the Korean monarchs and ministers.

After Yi Sun-shin landed in Incheon, he immediately began to post Yi Sun-Shin's messages in Seoul, and various rumors appeared in the city.

He also said that Yi Sun-shin led 20,000 elite troops from the southeast to land in order to teach the Korean monarchs and ministers to be disrespectful to the southeast.

It is also said that Yi Sun-shin organized an army of 100,000 people in North Korea to come to Seoul to "clear the emperor's side".

It is also said that traitors have been ambushed inside Seoul for a long time. As long as Yi Sun-shin's army reaches the city, someone will surrender.

It was also said that the army sent by the small court of North Korea to Busan was defeated and completely wiped out.

There is a lot of news in the world, and it is difficult to tell whether it is true or false.

Yi Sun-shin's strategy was also to march with great fanfare, and contact the Progressive Society to create an uprising near Seoul, seize some towns and transportation arteries, and create a momentum of fire everywhere.

The monarchs and ministers of North Korea have never seen such momentum.

There was a lot of turmoil within the Joseon Dynasty, such as the rebellion of princes and the feud between scholars and factions, but these were all struggles within the ruling group.

Especially the two classes of nobles in North Korea, who rose up amidst the turmoil within the North Korean dynasty.

The royal family's struggle for power brought turmoil to the political situation in the central government and gave the two groups of nobles the opportunity to expand their power.

After the two succession wars, internal fighting broke out within the two groups of nobles, but by this time a situation in which the king was weak and the ministers were strong had already formed.

In other words, even if there was turmoil in the past, the two groups of nobles living in Seoul would not be too worried. As long as they did not take sides, the family's status would not be affected in the end, and they could enjoy wealth and wealth with the country.

But this time things were completely different.

Yi Sun-shin's banner was to abolish the monarchy and the yangban system in North Korea and implement constitutional government in North Korea.

This is tantamount to abolishing the roots of the two classes of nobles and completely wiping out this class!

This is also the reason why when North Korea was so internally corrupt and turbulent, after Yi Sun-shin's progress was issued, the North Korean monarchs and ministers were able to quickly put down their fights and form an army to go to Busan to quell the rebellion.

But the result was that Yi Sun-shin did not attack Pusan ​​at all, but landed directly from Incheon and attacked Seoul.

At this time, the North Korean monarchs and ministers were completely panicked.

The one who reigns today is the 13th monarch of Joseon, Lee Seong, who is also known as Mingjong of Joseon in later generations.

Li Hong was a relatively qualified monarch in the Joseon Dynasty. When he succeeded to the throne, he relied on the last heir of Renzong of Joseon. Li Hong obtained the throne from his nephew.

When Li Hong succeeded to the throne, his mother, Queen Wending, the Queen Mother Yin, had exclusive power, listened to the government behind the curtain, and appointed relatives of the Yin family. Li Hong never gained real power in the Joseon court.

At the same time, the Yin family, a relative of the Joseon Dynasty, fought with another relative of the family in the court, and the Eulsi Disaster broke out.

Yisi's misfortune finally killed his mother, so he had the Yin family exterminated, and then the Japanese pirates came again.

After the Japanese rebellion in the Central Plains subsided, the Japanese rebellion in North Korea finally subsided. Before Li Hong could live a peaceful life, he encountered an uprising from the Progressive Association.

The leader of North Korea was only thirty-two years old now, but he looked very frail. He sat in the palace and looked at the ministers on both sides, and couldn't help but sigh.

I have never seen them so quiet during normal internal fighting, but when it came to the time when the country's survival was really at stake, none of them spoke.

After Li Hong succeeded to the throne, he was taken care of by his mother, relatives, and powerful officials. His only son also died in infancy, and there are still no descendants in the harem.

Li Hong's hard work in the harem over the years has yielded no results. Instead, he has emptied his body due to drinking and sex.

Moreover, the Li family has a legacy of dying young and dying in the prime of life. Li Hong's thirty-two years old is considered to have exceeded the average life span among Korean monarchs.

Li Xi looked around, and finally named his favorite Li Liang.

Li Liang bravely went out and said: "Your Majesty, I think that the rebels are powerful and Hancheng is undefended and cannot defend it, so the capital should be moved."

As soon as this sentence was said, it naturally caused the ministers to curse.

For a long time, North Korea has been playing court politics with two groups of nobles.

Just like the French nobles are unwilling to leave Paris, the properties of the two classes of North Korean nobles are basically in Seoul. It would be more uncomfortable for them to abandon their properties and leave Seoul than to kill them.

Li Liang was the uncle of Li Hong's concubine Shen. He was a member of the Joseon clan and a relative. The big families in North Korea were like those in the Wei and Jin Dynasties and intermarried with each other. They were intertwined. Li Liang was originally promoted by Li Hong to fight against the Yin family's relatives. Now that Yin's relatives have fallen, Li Liang is the number one chief minister.

Of course Li Liang didn't want to leave Seoul, but the current situation was that the people of Seoul were floating, and there were no fighting troops around.

Theoretically, North Korea also has five battalions guarding Seoul, similar to the five armies of the capital in the Ming Dynasty, led by the five battalions of soldiers and horses, that is, the head of the generals.

In fact, the Fifth Battalion of North Korea's Gyeonggi Province deteriorated faster than the Fifth Army of the Ming Dynasty's Capital Division. North Korea's monarchs and ministers all knew that these people were not qualified to serve as an honor guard, let alone fight.

The only people who can rely on are the imperial guards inside the North Korean palace and the private soldiers of the major families.

However, the major families will definitely not hand over all their private soldiers to the North Korean leader, and it is impossible for the North Korean leader to hand over all the guards and imperial guards to foreign ministers.

And their combined strength is not enough to defend Seoul, the largest city in North Korea.

While the ministers were still arguing, Li Xi interrupted the court meeting and summoned his confidant Li Liang to the back hall.

"Your Excellency, all the ministers in the court cannot be trusted."

Li Xi has been on the throne for many years and has long known what kind of insects he has under his command.

Now that things have happened, they are reluctant to part with the wealth and honor of Seoul, and they still imagine that Yi Sun-shin, like other powerful officials who rebelled, can still maintain the family's status as long as they don't take sides.

Li Hong was different. Yi Sun-shin's appeal directly targeted the monarchy itself. Li Hong knew that he could not achieve good results no matter what.

Nowadays, Yi Sun-shin's experience has been revealed. After being a poor official in North Korea, he went to study in the southeast and decided to join the army because he felt that studying Confucianism could not save North Korea.

He made many military exploits in the southeast, and once led his troops to fight Li Chengliang in Shandong!

Who is Li Chengliang?

When Li Chengliang was in western Liaoning, he suppressed the entire Northeast Asia region. He beat the Jurchens who were most feared by North Korea like dogs, and he was also very arrogant and domineering towards North Korea's monarchs and ministers.

Yi Sun-shin had such a record and the support of Southeast, not to mention that he had no soldiers to fight.

Li Hong looked at Li Liang and said, "My lord, where are you going now?"

Li Liang also started thinking.

He raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, there are only two ways to go north and south."

"Going south is to catch up with the army heading to Busan. With the army in hand, we can take back Seoul."

Li Hong immediately shook his head and said: "Not to mention whether we can beat him or not, the generals in the army are all descendants of two groups, how can we trust him?"

Li Hong really knows the urinal nature of his gang of insects. As long as he keeps his family's wealth, they will definitely tie him to Seoul.

Li Liang said: "Then go north to Liujing!"

Ryugyong was Pyeongseong, Xijing of the Goguryeo Dynasty, which is now Pyongyang, and Pyongyang Prefecture, the seat of Pyongyang Province in North Korea today.

It has always been the second largest city in North Korea and is also regarded as a deputy capital. Because of the large number of willow trees planted, it is called Ryugyong by the North Koreans.

Li Liang said: "Pingcheng is very close to the Ming Dynasty. The king can ask the Ming court for support. If that doesn't work, he can retreat across the Yajiang River and transfer to the Ming Dynasty to take charge of countering the rebellion."

Li Hong immediately said: "The great minister and I have the same ideas."

Li Liang and Li Xi are one, and he immediately said: "Then please leave the city immediately, because we can't get any useful results from discussions with these insects in the Manchu Dynasty!"
