Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 726

[Chapter 726 Conditions]

“Sincerity? Yes, yes.” The King of Korea was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and hurriedly said: “The head of Li Wancheng, who is right to discuss politics in Gaoli, is outside the palace. He has always been close to Beidi, and Xiao Wang is Under his bewitching, he has repeatedly committed the crime of disrespect, and I hope His Highness will see clearly!”

Yin Boming added, “It is Li Wancheng who advocated going to Beidi to seek help this time, and this Li Wancheng is in fact Beidi’s running dog.”

When Zhao Xu heard this, there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

He doesn’t care about the life and death of this Goryeo Rightist.

Over the years, Goryeo betrayed Dasong, willingly acted as Beidi’s eagle dog, and even participated in the battle of Ningjin Dusi, slaughtering Dasong’s people.

He also built warships for Beidi and went south to attack Yanzhou.

He kept these accounts in one stroke.

This time, he used the Eastern Land Alliance to invade Goryeo and planned to bring Goryeo into his sphere of influence for the sake of Dasong’s interests, not out of kindness.

If it wasn’t for supporting a puppet court in Goryeo after the war, he wouldn’t have met the King of Goryeo at all.

I don’t care about Gao Li, the leftist politician.

Furthermore, they are not their only options.

If it wasn’t for the trouble, he would have been able to abolish King Goryeo after expulsing the Eastern Land Alliance, and support a Goryeo son to inherit the throne.

Therefore, if the two cannot meet his interests.

Wherever they came from, they will go back!

Let Chai Wu catch a Goryeo son to praise him. After Goryeo perishes, he will not be too late to make a move.

Thinking of this, he said to the King of Korea and Yin Boming: “You know this is not what the king wants. If you don’t have the slightest sincerity, please go back. When the Dongtu Alliance hits Dongjiang, it won’t be too late for the king to make a move.”

This Dongjiang It is the name of the Yalu River here.

King Gaoli’s heart trembled, his legs became weak suddenly, his mouth trembled, and he was speechless for a while.

Seeing this, Yin Boming was secretly happy.

He would be happy to see King Goryeo make a fool of himself in front of King Yan.

In this way, he can take the opportunity to show King Yan that he is qualified to be Dasong’s pawn in Goryeo.

In this way, when he returns to Goryeo in the future, with the support of Da Song, even the King of Goryeo will have to look at his face, just like Li Wancheng with the support of Beidi.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly said: “My lord, we owe Dasong too much in Koryo, we should sign a contract immediately, pay tribute every year from then on, and become a vassal state of Dasong again, and return all the invaded Dasong territory to Dasong. ”

Zhao Xu nodded lightly. The area occupied by Goryeo is the contemporary Liaodong Peninsula, which is where Liaoning is located.

Ancheng is Lushun, and Ancheng Port is Lushun Port.

However, this is what Goryeo should return to Dae Song.

Even if they don’t return it, they will fight it themselves.

After all, this is tantamount to stealing his things and returning them back, which is not a transfer of benefits.

So he continued to remain silent, waiting for Yin Boming’s next words.

“This…” After Yin Boming finished speaking, seeing that there was no trace of joy on King Yan’s face, he felt worried.

Obviously, the conditions he proposed were not enough to tempt King Yan.

After thinking for a while, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he continued: “When the Eastern Allied Forces retreat, I, Koryo, are willing to exchange business with Dasong, without charging a penny for business tax.”

King Yan did not hesitate to send a fleet to force Korea to trade. Business is very important, so he decided to give it a try.

Zhao Xu shook his head, still dissatisfied, it may be the limitations of this era.

The monarchs and ministers of Koryo could not think of some unequal conditions that became popular in modern times.

After pondering for a while, he said: “This king will not hang on to you. In addition to the conditions you just said, this king asks you Goryeo to abolish Goryeo, and let   Goryeo people learn my written language again.” Beidi and Goryeo mixed the characters of Dasong and Beidi, and created some characters themselves, forming the current Goryeo characters.

This is to be independent from the Dasong cultural circle and to completely separate from Dasong.

According to contemporary experience, once these small countries around Dasong do this, they will inevitably take opposition to Dasong as the foundation of their country in the future.

This phenomenon already exists in Korea now.

Moreover, because there are too many traditions copied from Dasong in their culture, they will inevitably try their best to deny the culture of the Central Plains, stealing it for their own use and at the same time occupying the origin of these cultures.

Therefore, he wanted to nip this tendency in the bud.

The recognition of a civilization does not care about its territory, but its cultural identity.

Compared with a vassal state in the territorial sense, he prefers Goryeo to regard Daesong as a cultural suzerain state.

In this way, the Goryeo people will think that Goryeo is just a part of the civilization of the Central Plains.

From the bottom of my heart, I yearn for the culture of the Central Plains. Although I was born in Korea, I think that I am a great admirer in my heart.

Both King Gaoli and Yin Boming were stunned, they did not expect King Yan to raise such a condition.

But for them, this one is easy to achieve.

Since it is a vassal state of Dasong, it is reasonable to learn the language of Dasong.

Yin Boming was about to speak, but the King of Korea rushed to say: “Xiao Wang agrees to this matter.”

He came to his senses and couldn’t let Yin Boming steal his limelight.

Zhao Xu showed a faint smile, and he said again: “This is just one of them. In the battle of Ningjindusi, your Koryo army burned, killed and looted, and then repeatedly attacked Dasong fishermen, and built warships to help Beidi attack Yanzhou. All kinds of things, you must compensate me for my loss, fifty million taels of silver.”

“Fifty million taels!” King Gaoli felt as if his heart was being pinched, and he was so nervous that he panicked.

Goryeo’s annual tax surplus is only more than two million taels, which will take twenty years to pay off.

“Why, shouldn’t you Korea pay compensation? What’s more, you have invaded our Dasong territory for so many years. For more than a hundred years, all the taxes paid by the people on these territories have fallen into your Korea’s pockets.

” I really should pay for it.” Yin Boming seized the opportunity to say, and then he said to the King of Korea, “Your Majesty, if you don’t agree, someone will agree for you, you can think about it.” The

King of Korea suddenly woke up. When picking and choosing, he didn’t have any choice.

Now it is the King of Yan who gives him a chance. If he does not agree, the King of Yan will change to the King of Koryo at worst.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly said: “Xiao Wang agrees, Xiao Wang agrees to everything.”

After driving away the Eastern Allied Forces, he is still the King of Korea.

Otherwise, he is nothing.

Instead of suffering for yourself, it is better to let the people of Korea suffer.

“Hahaha…” At this moment, Zhao Xu laughed out loud.

In fact, he was also testing the King of Korea.

If the King of Korea would rather die than surrender and refuse to agree to these humiliating conditions, he would not be able to keep him.

Since you have a concubine, why not raise a concubine who is flattering and obedient, who can give and take whatever you want.

“Since that’s the case, after signing this contract, I will send troops to Korea in the near future to drive out the Eastern Allied Army.” Zhao Xu handed over a well-prepared contract to Liang Cheng.

Liang Cheng took it and sent it to the King of Korea.

The ministers and officials under the steps were all stunned.

They thought that King Koryo’s visit this time was just a submission to Dae Song.

Unexpectedly, King Yan would slap Goryo so hard.

However, what a joy!

Whether it was Yang Feng and other old ministers, or Liu Fu and Chang Wei and others, their faces were pale throughout the process.

When King Goryeo signed the contract with his own hand, they all smiled heartily.

On the dragon chair.

Zhao Heng smiled and nodded.

Immediately, his eyes stopped on Zhao Xu’s side face.

Fleeing to Yanzhou was probably the only correct choice in his life.

Otherwise, how could he see the day when King Gaoli bowed his knees in such a humble way.

At this moment, he really felt the glory that the late emperors felt when Dasong was strong.
