Hwarur!
Hwarur!
A man appeared with dozens of torches.
He is Yeonwoo, the 10th king of Goguryeo.
"Fourth, what is this?"
"Is the Queen here too?"
After Yeonwoo ascended to the throne, she also secured the position of the next queen. Her face is truly captivating.
If my mental age wasn't over 40, her beauty would make my heart flutter.
This is probably why he didn't depose the King of Goguryeo even though he hated him, and why he had sex with Yeonwoo even though she was his sister-in-law.
But since the future media is overflowing with pretty and attractive female groups, I didn't feel much of a response.
"Why did you sound the war drum?"
The group behind Mr. Woo glared at him with a haughty air. As the saying goes, "A fox uses the tiger's might," the true nature of those who rely on power was clearly revealed.
"Goguryeo's rise and fall were at stake. The very foundation of its nationality was in danger of disappearing."
He answered slyly.
Yeon-woo and Woo-ssi are startled, and the group of foxes wagging their tails ask around.
"I implore you, in the name of the Northern Gochugara, to punish those who interfere with your meeting with His Majesty..."
"If it's an important story, why don't you listen to it and then decide?"
Mr. Woo approaches Yeon-woo in a flirtatious manner.
Her entourage appears to be trying to hide the fact that the Taewangjeon has been sealed off.
Now that things had come to this, the governor intended to confront Woo's mistakes head-on. If only Anryu hadn't nodded to dissuade him.
-Don't make things bigger.
I frowned, then straightened my expression and took out the plaque. The bronze plaque was engraved with the character for "North" and a three-legged crow, symbolizing the Ministry of War, Gochuga, the commander of the northern forces.
"What does it mean that my younger brother took out the bottle?"
"I am willing to risk my position and my life."
"What!"
"Third brother, now that our country is on the path to destruction, would I be ashamed of my life?"
It looks cool to me too.
You must be impressed by this.
Look!
Except for Yeon-woo with his bewildered expression and Woo-ssi with his suspicious eyes, everyone, starting with An-ryu, was half in awe.
"If the escaped Balgi returns in collusion with Gongsun Tak, the royal capital will be filled with peaches, like a peaches growing on every pole."
He shouted sarcastically, his eyes burning with fire.
So that everyone is terrified.
Look at the eyes and expressions of those who directly experienced the tragedy that night.
I shudder with fear and dread, thinking that at any moment Balgi will lead his army and enter the royal capital.
『… … Goguryeo's towns were burned down and Yi I-mo (King Sansang) reestablished the country.
-Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Eastern Chronicles, Goguryeo Dynasty
History passed down to later generations.
Goguryeo, which had flourished under King Mobon and King Taejo, with Jumong as its founder, was shaken to its roots during the reign of King Sansang.
Even just looking at the inscription left on the gilt bronze tablet discovered in the Jipanhyeon Cemetery is shocking.
If the war of aggression brought about by the treacherous schemes and carelessness of Woo and Yeon-woo is not stopped, it will not be until the reign of King Micheon that the prosperity of the old Gogukcheonwang era will be restored.
Damn it! I held back the curses that were about to burst from my mouth.
"Is what you say true?"
"I've sent my guest to Liaodong Commandery. We'll have a full assessment of the situation within a few days."
"What should I do about this...."
Yeonwoo staggered as if shocked.
If Mr. Woo hadn't stepped forward and linked arms, I would have definitely fallen on my butt.
"The king is inciting people with unclear issues."
"Are you saying I, who was wounded in the heart by the rebels, am being unreasonable? If my brother, who escaped, were to borrow the Liaodong army and invade the capital, who would be killed first?"
The last syllable was raised.
Mrs. Woo understood what I meant. Because of her close relationship with Balgi, her expression was one of bewilderment.
"Why would Gongsun Tak help you?"
Yeonwoo's words made me sigh.
If there were no eyes around me to see, I would want to give them a hard time.
However, it has been said since ancient times that if you repeat the word "patience" three times, everything will go well. Let's clench our fists and endure.
"Are you asking because you don't know about Gongsun Tak's ambitions?"
The primary reason the original plank gathered and prepared for the attack was because of Gongsun Zhuo, the governor of Liaodong. Who doesn't know this cunning raccoon who sought to seize control of the entire Oyeolhol and suppress Goguryeo?
"The governor of Liaodong still remains!"
Mr. Woo stepped forward.
I noticed it on behalf of Yeonwoo, who was indecisive and slow to grasp the situation.
I thought she was a vixen who captivated men with her beauty and coquetry. But she actually possessed insight and foresight.
She was clearly a heroine who could not be ignored.
"For the past ten years, he has been teasing the Oyeolhol Ohwan tribe and the northern Xianbi tribe, and now that the opportunity has arisen to cause conflict between the right wing (Oyeolhol) and the home country, how could he not intervene?"
"hmm...."
"Furthermore, hundreds of thousands of refugees from the Central Plains have settled in Liaodong Commandery, and over 10,000 young men are being selected and trained as soldiers."
"The governor of Liaodong was afraid of our country. How many soldiers did they have to mobilize?"
"If Gongsun Zhuo decides to mobilize, he can mobilize an expeditionary force of 20,000 men, including the scattered Wuhuan tribes around Oyeolhol and the soldiers of the Xuantu Army."
In an instant, Yeonwoo swallowed a sigh.
"omg!"
Just as he was surprised, the people burst into awe.
"A large army of 20,000?"
"If something like that happens, it will be a big problem not only for Goguryeo but also for the entire northeast."
It seems that they have realized the significance of an army of ten thousand men in the north and the steppes.
Why?
King Maobon, who made Emperor Guangwu of the Later Han tremble, mobilized a total of 30,000 troops, including 15,000 Goguryeo troops and allied forces such as the Wuhuan and Xianbei.
In short, the fact that they were fighting with 20,000 troops in the north and the grasslands meant that they were in for a great war that would determine the fate of the nation.
"Do you understand what I just said? Refrain from throwing this country into chaos. Your Majesty!"
"Ask the former king and the present king whether I, Gyesu, have ever harbored ulterior motives."
He gave a passionate speech in front of Yeonwoo and Woo.
In fact, it is the will of Gyesu recorded on a gilt bronze plate discovered in the tomb of Jipanhyeon.
Not only Mr. Woo, who was not pleased with me, but also his subordinates were speechless.
Among the princes of the new king, he alone did not covet the throne and fought against the army of the Central Plains.
"I, Kim Seok-jin, will inherit the will of Gye-su. From today on, I will become Gye-su. I will leap into the turbulent times that Cao Cao and Liu Bei await, and portray the glory of Goguryeo."
Just then, the moon floating in the night sky set in the west, and a red glow rose in the east, illuminating the land.
This is the day I decided to intervene in the new fate of Goguryeo.
※※※※※
Around the time when the erectile dysfunction in the country was being resolved.
An urgent report also arrived in the neighboring Liaodong Commandery.
"King Nammu (King Gogukcheon) died and his younger brother Yeonwoo ascended to the throne."
"The chili pepper of Oyeol Hall was defeated in a fight with the five nobles in the country."
"Due to the civil war, tens and thousands of noble soldiers were killed and wounded, and the eastern gate of the castle and the houses and markets to the south were completely burned down...."
Information brought by a spy dispatched to Goguryeo.
The messenger's face was covered in dust and sweat as he described in detail what had happened three days ago.
"We have received intelligence that Balgi has arrived at the Goguryeo army camp to the east of Yoha."
The middle-aged Gongsun Zhuo was delighted by the news delivered by the messenger and stroked his three-forked beard.
"It seems that heaven is giving me, Gongsun Tak, a chance."
"It is the will of heaven that my lord will overcome the Oyeol Hole and become the leader of the North."
His confidant, Yui, struck the gong.
In his youth, he held various low-ranking posts alongside Gongsun Zhuo, and schemed to use Dong Zhuo's general Xu Ying as a stepping stone to obtain the position of governor of Liaodong. As a result, he became a minister (aide to the governor) of Liaodong Commandery and gained favor.
"The governor's aide knows my heart well."
"How about trying to get an erection?"
"The tiger of the Oyeol Hall?"
"The Liaodong and Balgi armies have been fighting for years. How about eliminating unnecessary fighting and preparing for the greater good of the Central Plains?"
"Youi, that sounds interesting."
"Your Majesty, please extend your hand to Balgi."
Yui's plan.
The officials and generals in Daejeon were startled.
"oh my god!"
"Do you think that makes sense?"
"Balgi is arrogant and haughty by nature, and is not the type of person to be subordinate to others."
Everyone is negative.
There were countless people who fought with Balgi and held grudges against him, and he was the main culprit who prevented the Liaodong army from moving east of Oyeolhol.
"Erection, that son of a bitch has killed more than one or two of his subordinates!"
The sheep suddenly shouted.
True to his title as the best general of the Liaodong Army, he could not hold back his anger and was full of murderous intent.
"Throw away all this useless thinking! The Liaodong Army has no need to fear a crow that has lost its nest."
In contrast, there was no change in Yoo's expression.
"Who would like it if we fought with our erections?"
"huh?"
"Not only will you love the fox and the fox of the country, but you will also show off your solidarity both inside and outside."
Everyone groaned.
Gongson Tak, who was neatly trimming his goatee, stopped moving and his eyes lit up.
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend? So you're saying there's no need to sacrifice the Liaodong Army for the good of others? So then?"
"Please write a two-faced plan."
Yui's plan has been revealed.
The people in the hall were in an uproar.
"I want to hear more details."
"Make the tiger that came back wounded fight without regard for front or back."
"Induce self-restraint?"
"In a broader sense, it's to your advantage. There are hundreds of thousands of refugees in Yangpyeong and other counties, and many conscripted men, but they are woefully lacking in actual combat experience."
That's right.
The chaos of the Later Han Dynasty that began with the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
After Dong Zhuo took power, he burned down the capital of the Later Han Dynasty, Luoyang, and moved the capital to Chang'an, causing a second period of chaos.
And the third chaos triggered by his death, the era of warlords, was opened wide.
The authority of the emperor, who should have been the center of gravity, also fell to the ground, and as each heroic figure instigated the chaos, the people had no choice but to become refugees in search of a safe land.
In particular, as a large number of refugees from Youzhou migrated and settled in Liaodong Commandery, Gongsun Zhuo selected young men and expanded Liaodong Commandery.
"The number of Ohwan villages has increased and needs to be reduced."
"It's a very good plan."
"If they were newly recruited young men and Wuhuan mercenaries, there would be no way they would refuse the Lord's offer."
"If your plan is followed, both sides will fight to the death."
"Of course, you must receive compensation for lending your troops. Ask for the Goguryeo garrison and Haho east of Oyeolhol."
"ha ha ha!"
The corners of Gongsun Tak's mouth went up.
"You want me to give you Biryu Nabu and Balgi's territory? An ignorant swordsman would be suspicious."
"You just need to write an official document and stamp it, saying that you will return it after 5 years if you pay 500,000 kok, including interest and principal, using the land as collateral."
"You are indeed my eldest son."
"After regaining the throne, Balgi will think he can exercise his power if the land isn't returned. He'll be a foolish and utterly foolish man."
"Huh! You want to take back what you've got in your hands? That's a goblin's nonsense."
Gongsun Tak smiled strangely.
Everyone flinched at the sight of them drooling over the precious prey right in front of them, and they thought about the nature of their lord.
He was more cruel and cunning than anyone else, and he hated being robbed.
"That's because he's a fool who only knows strength."
"He must be the same author as Lu Bu, who rules over the southern province of Xuzhou. I will accept Seung's (Liu Yi's) plan."
"If your lord approves, I will personally go and persuade Balgi."
(Additional explanation)
All the royal family members who appear on the stage of [Goguryeo, Eat the Three Kingdoms] are the sons of King Shindae, and due to the loss of ancient history, they referred to the Northern History (a book that compiles the history of the Northern Dynasties, including the Northern Wei, Northern Zhou, Northern Qi, and Sui dynasties), Samguk Sagi, and Samguk Yusa.
According to him, King Shindae was the great-grandson or half-brother of King Taejo, and had three sons: Nammu, Balgi, Yeonwoo, and Gyesu.
In the official histories of China and Korea, Balgi is recorded as the first or second king, and there are historical records that call King Gogukcheonwang Iimoo (伊夷模), but in the Records of the Three Kingdoms and other Chinese records, Iimoo also appears as the name of King Sansang.
In Goguryeo, where sibling succession was often practiced because primogeniture was not stipulated, brothers fought over the throne of King Gogukcheon, who had actually died without an heir.
