When Su Yonglin received this letter, more than 90% of the military preparations of the Liaodong side's Su Jue had already been completed, and he could basically start a war.

So when Su Yonglin saw the letter that read something [Gory is definitely not afraid of war blackmail in Ming Dynasty], he suddenly felt that Yelang's arrogant thing would happen forever.

If a small country is not beaten up by a wave of waves, I am afraid that people will not know their actual situation and will really not understand why they are small countries and why big countries are big countries.

Is the difference between big and small countries so worth mentioning to these people?

Do they really don’t know that big countries can crush them to death with just a finger?

So Su Yonglin sneered and tore off the letter in front of the Goryeo envoy.

"Goryeo is not afraid of the Ming Dynasty? Go back and tell those generals that they are young but not humble, have little power but not afraid of strong people, are rude and insult their neighbors, and are greedy and stubborn but clumsy friends, can be destroyed."

The Goryeo messenger shivered and his face was pale.

"Have you decided to use military force against Goryeo?"

Su Yonglin nodded.

"The army of the Ming Dynasty is the army of the king! The army of justice!"

The Goryeo messenger spitted and endured the fear in his heart.

"The rebels make mistakes and should be killed, but what are the people? His Majesty is angry and raises troops. Wherever the army goes, people will suffer. How can they be considered the king's army? The righteous army?"

"The military discipline of the Ming army is unparalleled in the world. This is what I am most proud of. What I can guarantee is that wherever the Ming army goes, it will only kill the rebels and not hurt the people at all."

Su Yonglin sighed slowly and said, "And from now on, the hard days of the people of Goryeo will come to an end. The Ming Dynasty will make them live like individuals. You group of insects should not be bothered by such things, making it as if the people of Goryeo will be happy and healthy under your rule. It is really shameless."

The hard days are over?

The Korean messenger was very confused about this.

Is the Ming Dynasty going to kill all the two million people in Goryeo?

He was frightened, but he didn't dare to continue asking. He was worried that if he continued asking, he would be killed.

Su Yonglin was never a bloodthirsty person, so the Goryeo envoy left Zhongdu safely and was able to return to Kaicheng to report the news.

But his actions are meaningless.

On February 13, 10th year of Hongwu, he had just arrived in Kaicheng to report to Li Yifang that the vanguard of the 13th Army of the Fifth Corps of the Ming Army had already broken into the Anbei Protectorate of the northern border of Goryeo, and the troops were aimed directly at Anzhou, which was very sharp.

When Li Yifang learned about the fall of Anzhou, Goryeo Xijing Pyongyang had already struggled to support under the encirclement of the Ming army, and was shaking in the face of the fierce artillery of the Ming army.

He panicked and organized the generals to discuss countermeasures, and decided to send general Li Yi-hwan. Park Cunwei led an army of 30,000 to resist north urgently. Then he integrated more soldiers to support north and strive to withstand the Ming army's attack in the northern border area.

At the same time, he ordered the border general Zhao Weichong to lead his border guards to attack the Ming army from the east and threaten the supply line on the back.

He felt that such a layout should be considered a relatively appropriate layout.

As long as they withstand the impact of the Ming army in the northern border, Zhao Weichong led his army to sneak attack the rear nest of the Ming army in the eastern border, and cut off the Ming army's logistics supply line in one fell swoop, no matter how capable the Ming army is, it is inevitable that the ship will capsize in the gutter.

He was confidently planning a defensive counterattack battle belonging to Goryeo, but he didn't know that the main force of the 14th Army of the Ming army launched an attack from Zhao Weichong's defense zone, and he did not get any news.

Of course, he can't be blamed for this.

The Ming army attacked two groups, one to the north boundary and the other to the east boundary. The tactical goal of the first phase was to eat up all the border guards in the northern part of Goryeo.

However, unlike the northern defenders' actions of slightly resisting, Zhao Weichong did not resist at all.

When he learned that the Ming army was attacking, he was shocked and frightened, so he took his people away and ran south without a trace, so he could be called the Goryeo Flying General.

He had always had a bad relationship with Li Yifang and did not plan to do anything that "loyal ministers" would do for his regime. It was already good to just run away, at least he did not surrender.

As soon as he ran, the generals and soldiers under his command ran quickly one after another, throwing away the defense areas and throwing military supplies to the Ming army.

As a result, the eastern border area on the northern border of Goryeo was easily occupied by the Ming army, and there was almost no strong resistance, and no one provided information to the Kaicheng court, so Li Yifang did not know that the eastern border had been controlled by the Ming army.

The so-called "Thousand Mile Great Wall" built by Goryeo to prevent the invasion of the northern enemy did not bring any obstacles to the Ming army. The Ming army easily crossed the Thousand Mile Great Wall and entered the border of Goryeo.

After Su Jue personally led the main force of the 13th Army to capture Anzhou, he used artillery to bombard Pyongyang, Xijing, Goryeo. Three days later, he captured Pyongyang, killed the resistance general, attacked the city and occupied Pyongyang, and then continued to move south, acting like a wind.

On February 23, 10 days after the launch of the Ming army's military operation, 30,000 main forces of the 13th Army led by Su Jue encountered Li Yi-hwan thirty miles south of Pyongyang, and 30,000 reinforcements from Goryeo led by Park Cunwei, and launched field battles.

In this service, the Ming army made the Goryeo field troops feel what [crusting] for the first time.

The Ming army used chariots, cavalry, generals and artillery to destroy the Goryeo formation at a long range, and then used muskets to attack the Goryeo formation at close range, and defeated the Goryeo formation facing the enemy head-on and lost a lot.

In the end, five thousand cavalrymen flew around the back and took the retreat, and none of the 30,000 Koryo field troops ran away and were completely wiped out by the Ming army.

It’s not their fault. Normally, big-headed soldiers who have never seen a fierce firearm have indeed found it difficult to face a musket, and even more difficult to face a large iron ball wrapped in scorching air that flew from afar.

The former can blow their heads, while the latter can smash them into meat sauce and can hardly defend against it.

Faced with the Ming army using such sharp weapons, it is not unforgivable that the Goryeo Field Army was defeated.

In this battle, Li Yifang's generals Li Yi-hwan and Park Cunwei were both killed in battle.

The former was killed by the cavalry and generals, while the latter was surrounded by Ming cavalry and could not take off his battle. He was hit on the head with a hammer and fell to the ground and died.

Su Jue fought a large-scale war that had been missing for a long time, but he was still unsatisfied, so he continued to move south and pointed directly at the Koryoi Royal Capital Kaicheng.

When Li Yi-hwan and Park Cunwei were wiped out, Li Yi-fang had just prepared 20,000 troops. He planned to prepare another 20,000 troops, and felt that the winning rate was greater.

As a result, on February 15, he learned that the 30,000 troops had been wiped out and the Ming army headed south toward Kaicheng.

As soon as the news came out, the entire Kaicheng was panicked, shocked, and scared.

For a moment, no one thought about going north, either fleeing south quickly or staying in Kaicheng to prepare for surrender.

Zheng Zhongfu and others had been running for three or five days. They didn't expect the Ming army to be so fast, so after they learned that the Ming army started the war, they quickly packed up their things and fled for the death. All that were left in the city were the resistance generals and civil officials who survived by chance under the butcher knife.

In this situation, the resistance generals were regretful and there were many people who left the city and fled, while the civil servants were secretly happy, feeling that as soon as the Great Dawn soldiers arrived, they would be free and could restore their former power and status.

Everything will eventually return to the origin.

Li Yifang, who was at the center of the storm, regretted it at this time. Realizing that it was impossible to face the victory of the Ming army, Li Yifang made an emergency deployment and pretended to defend Kaicheng to the death, but in fact he was ready to escape.

On the night of February 16th, Li Yifang was about to escape, but at the critical moment, he suddenly felt a strong reluctance.
