Pyongyang.

The city was dilapidated.

Walking in it, the kings and ministers of North Korea can't help but feel downcast.

After two wars, the Imjin Japanese Invasion and the Jungmao Insurrection, Pyongyang suffered great damage.Many years have passed and it still hasn't been repaired.

Without money, how to repair it?

Originally, Pyongyang was broken a little bit, and it didn't matter to North Korea.

But now that King Li Ji and the two classes have moved here, they immediately feel inconvenienced.

"Your Majesty, the summer thieves and traitors are becoming more and more arrogant. Most of the Korean land has been lost, and the people of the eight kingdoms are all mourning and weeping. I implore your majesty to use all means to restore the peace of our country and the people of Korea."

Kneeling in front of Huang Taiji, Li Zhen wept blood.

He had had enough of the days of wandering and wandering. At this moment, he missed the life in Gyeongbokgung Palace very much.

It's a pity that his home was first occupied by Huang Taiji, but now it may have been owned by Zuo Menggeng, right?
That's his home, not a public restroom!

Come when you want, go when you want.

Like Li Jing, the North Korean Second Class couldn't stand the current situation.

Many of their families are in the south. After moving to Pyongyang, they have no fixed place to live and no food to eat.So I miss my hometown very much, and I want to call back in my dream.

But the news from the battlefield is getting worse day by day, making them almost collapse.

Also kept receiving bad news, but Huang Taiji was very calm.

"The war is still going on, and the momentary victory or defeat does not represent the final result. If you are flustered and behave in a panic, is this the way to achieve great things?"

The North Korean monarchs and ministers were scolded, and they couldn't help secretly slandering in fear.

At the beginning when the Manchu Qing oppressed North Korea, everyone thought that Huang Taiji was unparalleled in power and talent.

Following such an emperor, aggrieved is a little aggrieved, but it can still keep safe.

However, half of the country's land was lost when the war was fought, which made the North Koreans inevitably doubt Huang Taiji.

"The fist has to be retracted in order to hit it better and harder. Don't be deceived by the current appearance, victory will eventually belong to us."

Huangtai Jiyunshan's misty words made the North Korean monarchs completely puzzled.

They received information about the situation on the battlefield every day, and no matter how they looked at it, it seemed to be very bad.

Where did Huang Taiji get the confidence to turn defeat into victory?
Just when they couldn't figure it out, Huang Taiji began to apply pressure.

"The lord of North Korea, we must raise food and grass for an army of [-] within three days. There must be no delay, otherwise the military law will proceed."

Hearing that Man Qing asked for supplies again, Li Zhen's face turned pale.

North Korea's family property is extremely weak. After so many years of tossing, it has already been worn out.Even these monarchs and ministers are struggling to survive, extremely miserable.

Especially now that the most affluent south has been lost, where should we find food and grass?

"Your Majesty clearly learned that North Korea has really reached the end of its mountains and rivers, and there is no more grain. Thousands of people are desperately waiting for food, desperate to survive, and there is no room for snatching!"

Their entreaties did not get Huang Taiji's mercy.

"If there is no food and grass, I will use your flesh and blood to serve as an army. The heavenly army has come here to fight to the death, all for North Korea. You will not die to repay your kindness and gratitude. Why are you called a human being?"

Under the naked threat, the North Korean monarchs and ministers were helpless.

What can we do?

They have already seen the brutality and dominance of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.If you don't obey the order, I'm afraid the end will be even worse.

In order to survive, Li Ji and the second class had no choice but to abandon the common people and start the brutal search again.

Having just survived the winter, the people tried hard to find a way out in the warm spring breeze, but all the last bit of wealth was taken away.

The people who have completely lost hope do not know how to survive.

Three days later, the North Korean monarchs and ministers barely got enough food and grass that Huang Taiji asked for.At the same time, I was deeply puzzled, why did Huang Taiji do this?

When they came outside the city and saw tens of thousands of cavalry slowly approaching from the north, they all opened their mouths.

But seeing that this cavalry is very large, one man has two horses or even three horses.The attire is completely different from that of the Qing army, and even slightly different from that of the Mongols.

The well-informed Cui Mingji recognized it immediately.

"This is Mobei Mongolia."

Tens of thousands of cavalry stopped outside Pyongyang, and the leading general came to Huang Taiji and knelt down obediently.

"Your Majesty the Great Tian Khan, Tuxietu and Zasaktu have been summoned by you and are here to serve you."

Looking at the reinforcements in front of him, Huang Taiji finally showed a smile.

He personally stepped forward and helped up Tuxietuhan Gonpo and Zasaktuhan Subadi.

"Your loyalty, I have witnessed with my own eyes. From now on, Daqing and you will no longer be separated from each other, but brothers with blood thicker than water."

The two Mongolian Khans quickly expressed their modesty, but no one knew what was going on in their hearts.

Gonpo took the opportunity to apply eye drops.

"The foreign minister informed Shuo Lei Jinong, but he remained indifferent. For such a crime of negligence, I implore His Majesty to punish him."

Mobei Mongolia is divided into three Khan tribes, namely the Tuxietu tribe, the Zhasaktu tribe and the Chechen tribe.

After receiving the order from the Qing Dynasty to send troops, the Tuxietu and Zasaktu tribes did not dare to neglect, and even King Khan personally led the troops.

Only the Chechen Ministry turned a deaf ear.

The reason is not difficult to guess.

The Chechen Ministry originally had a good relationship with the Chahar Ministry, but the relationship with the Manchu Qing has always been relatively alienated.After the Chahar Ministry was wiped out, many of the surviving troops went north and defected to the Chechen Ministry.

Relying on the high sky and the emperor's distance, the Chechen tribe has always been aloof from the Manchus.

"If you are friends, you should enjoy the wine of friendship. If you are not friends, you will regret the loss of friendship. With your help, great things can be achieved."

Huang Taiji made an oath.

Obviously, in his mind, the Chechen Ministry has been blacklisted.Once the time is right, it will be cut down and destroyed.

This is what Gonpo and Subadhi want.

Although Manchu is powerful, it is too far away from Mobei.

Once the Chechen Ministry is wiped out, the vast territory that will be vacated will inevitably become a meal for these two families.

In the dense forest in the distance, Xia army scouts lurking here saw the sudden appearance of a large number of soldiers and horses, and immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

"The third team will go south immediately, and they are not allowed to stop on the road. We must send the situation to His Highness."

A small team was separated from the scouts and began to head south rapidly.

Along the way, not only did they dare not stop, but they also had to fight wits and bravery with the soldiers and horses of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, passing through layers of defense lines.

At every moment, they are faced with the threat of death.

But the military situation is like fire, and there is no delay for a moment. Everyone knows the importance of this military situation.

In the wilderness and ridges, at the crossings of passes, the cruel fights continued all the way.

The brave scouts of the Xia army are saving the safety of the army with their own blood.
