Mount Tai stands majestically in Taishan County, above the Qidi Plain, with the vast sea to the east, the Yellow River to the west, and the waters of Wen, Si and Huai to the south. Since ancient times, it has been the sacred mountain where emperors of all dynasties have offered sacrifices to heaven and earth.

Also because the war in Qidi had just ended, tens of thousands of elite Yun troops and more than 100,000 young and strong soldiers from the county were all in Taishan County.

Therefore, after Xiao Cheng decided to enshrine the Zen in Mount Tai, there was no need to re-recruit the people for corvee service, and he only needed to directly mobilize the army to build the altar.

The efficiency of this army is naturally much higher than that of recruiting civilians.

After Xiao Cheng issued the decree, in less than three months, everything needed for Feng Chan was ready!

Xiao Cheng, who had just stopped in Jinling City for a short time, set off again with his accompanying important officials.

Wherever you pass along the way, you will receive both kindness and power.

In a place that has been repeatedly invaded by wars, the people are treated with light corvee and low taxes, but generous rewards and kindness are given to the people.

Those who refuse to surrender to Dayun will be severely punished. When the army arrives, buildings will collapse!

In the areas that had just been conquered by Yun's army, under the combination of kindness and power of Emperor Dayun, the remaining unstable factors were swept away. Only when the local government was re-established, these states and counties could truly come under Dayun's rule.

Under the rule of Taishan County, above the official road outside Tai'an City.

The Forbidden Army Gongsheng Camp, who was in charge of the honor guard team, was dressed in gorgeous armor, with feathers on their heads, and parasitic wings. The cloak behind them was flapping, and they were clearly clearing the way in front.

Behind him were flags, flags, flags, umbrellas, and the emperor's majestic guard of honor. The carriages of hundreds of officials followed closely behind, slowly coming along with solemn rituals and music.

The nearly 10,000 troops guarding the surrounding areas were equipped with both foot and cavalry, shouting in front and supporting behind. They were all the elites of the Yun army. As they marched, they showed their invincible and fierce military power.

On both sides of the official road, the common people knelt down respectfully to welcome the Emperor's arrival.

But at this moment, in front of Luan Jia, a group of people wearing plain white clothes suddenly rushed out barefoot, and suddenly fell to their knees before the group went forward.

When the Imperial Guard saw this, they were immediately startled and were about to step forward to capture this group of people.

At this time, I saw the leader holding a letter of credence high and shouting in his hand:

"The sinful king of Goryeo, he was arrogant and unreasonable, and offended the power of the great clouds. Now he is guilty!"

"Li Xingyou, the foreign minister of Goryeo Guangping, came with the letter of credence on the orders of Prince Zizhao, especially to ask for surrender! From now on, I wish to pay tribute every year, send my son as a pledge, and be Dayun's vassal forever!"

The group of people kneeling down in front of them to confess their sins turned out to be the envoys from the Kingdom of Goryeo!

I remembered that half a year ago, Goryeo still threatened Dayun with a strong attitude and peeked into the Central Plains.

But he never thought that it would only be a short time before he took the initiative to send someone to accuse him and ask for surrender!

The general of the Forbidden Army who was responsible for Luan Jia's safety looked at the Goryeo envoy who almost disturbed the Holy Jia and made him bear the blame for nothing, with a look of displeasure on his face, and snorted coldly:

"Even if they are envoys from other countries, it is an unforgivable crime to offend the Holy Master. I will suppress all these people and wait for His Majesty's disposal!"

With a shout, the surrounding Imperial Guards immediately swarmed forward and dragged these people to the side of the road like dead dogs. Finally, they were not hindered from driving behind.

Seeing the extremely gorgeous jade chariot, symbolizing the majesty of the emperor, slowly passing by on the official road, the Korean envoy Li Xingyou, who was being held tightly by the imperial army general, suddenly became excited and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"It is known that the sinful country has made a mistake. Please show mercy to His Majesty Emperor Dayun. Please show mercy!"

The Yun Army Imperial Guards who were holding him down saw him suddenly howling, fearing that he would disturb the Holy Master, they immediately became furious and slapped him hard, saying viciously:

"Bold, if I scare His Majesty, you will not regret dying!"

Li Xingyou turned a deaf ear and just continued to shout to the jade chariot that had not gone far:

"Everyone in Korea has realized their mistake..."

"Please, His Majesty Emperor Dayun, be lenient and forgive us!"

When the Forbidden Army general saw this, he became furious. He immediately punched and kicked him, grabbed his head and pinned him to the ground.

As an important minister of Goryeo, Li Xingyou was also a man of both civil and military skills. His cultivation level had even reached the level of a high-level warrior.

But when faced with being beaten by a low-ranking general of the imperial army who was only at the fifth level of cultivation, and who was responsible for the survival of the Goryeo state, he did not dare to fight back at all. He could only cover his head with his hands and shout at the top of his lungs.

In the jade chariot, Xiao Cheng's ears twitched and he said in a deep voice:

"Korean envoy, when did you come again?"

Feng Bao on the side heard this and said quickly:

"Four months ago, the Goryeo Navy was annihilated by our Dayun Navy in a battle and captured the royal city. After the Goryeo kings and ministers were forced to move their capital, they sent envoys to sue for peace."

"More than a month ago, Dongchang came to report. Prairie Ashinasheer, under His Majesty's order, sent troops via the Bohai Sea to defeat 30,000 Goryeo cavalry head-on, causing the northern border of Goryeo to be on fire."

"Koryeo was no longer able to support the war, so Crown Prince Li Zhao took the opportunity to launch a coup, imprisoned the leader of Goryeo, Li Daoxiang, and sent envoys to request surrender."

Having said this, Feng Bao paused for a moment and then said:

"Just because His Majesty has previously issued a decree to exterminate Goryeo, the letter of credence and surrender have not been handed over to His Majesty. It must be because of this that these Goryeo envoys can only stop and invite them like this.

Surrender."

Although it had only been half a year since Goryeo made those arrogant remarks, facing the Dayun Navy, the grassland cavalry, and the Bohai Kingdom's troops, Goryeo could no longer hold on.

In order to ask for Dayun's forgiveness, even his own country's leader was put under house arrest.

Presumably, as long as Xiao Cheng says a word at this time, Goryeo will immediately send the old king to the Yun Kingdom.

At this time, Xiao Cheng said calmly:

"These Korean envoys should be punished for offending the Holy Emperor, but they do not need to be severely punished."

Although he was really angry at the beginning, Xiao Cheng had never cared about the little country of Korea, so naturally he didn't feel any sense of relief in his heart.

"As for Korea..." Xiao Cheng pondered for a moment and then said immediately:

"Who is the naval general who led the troops to capture the capital of Yanli this time?" The small division that captured Gao Tube in Tatsuren City is accurate.

"This naval force is under the command of General Jinghai Liu Rengui. Lieutenant Fu Yulong led his troops as the vanguard and fought bravely to capture the capital of Goryeo!"

When Xiao Cheng heard this, his brows suddenly raised.

Liu Rengui and Fu Yulong were both characters summoned by Xun Ka. They were the generals who defeated Fusang Navy in the naval battle at Baijiangkou during the Tang Dynasty.

"That Buyeo Ryong, I remember he is of Goryeo bloodline!"

"Yes, it is true that Colonel Buyeo Long was born in Korea." Feng Bao replied.

Xiao Cheng nodded and said:

"I decree that the title of the Goryeo Kingdom be removed, the Andong Protectorate be established, and that it be placed under the control of the former Military Governor General Di Qing!"

"General Jinghai Liu Rengui, with great military exploits, was granted the title of earl of Kaicheng and appointed as the Protector of the Andong Protectorate."

"I have granted you the title of Earl of Liucheng, Lieutenant of the Navy, Fu Yulong, and the command of the Andong Protectorate in Jin Dynasty. Liucheng, the capital of the Goryeo Dynasty, is my fief, and I am allowed to open a mansion to educate the people of Goryeo!"

After hearing Xiao Cheng's order, Feng Bao was stunned and said hesitantly:

"Colonel Fu Yulong deserves a reward for conquering his king's capital. But the fifth-class title in the country has always been a virtual title without a real estate. Your Majesty allowed him to open a palace and gave him the capital of Goryeo as a fief. Isn't it a bit...

"

Xiao accepted this decree and transferred the military affairs of Goryeo to the Andong Protectorate. However, he handed over the power to govern the local area to Fu Yulong.

This is of course because Buyeo Yong’s Goryeo ancestry can minimize the resistance of the Goryeo people.

But in the final analysis, it still broke the system that Xiao Cheng had personally formulated, that the Yun Kingdom's title had no real estate! The enfeoffment system that had long been abandoned by all the countries in the world was once again brought out.

Xiao Cheng leaned back slightly and asked casually:

"Do you know how many talents there are in the imperial court today who can serve as governors of the Six Ministries and Okawajin?"

Feng Bao was a little confused, but he still replied:

"It's all thanks to His Majesty's discerning eye for talents. Now I, Dayun, naturally have as many civil servants as the clouds, powerful generals as the rain, and abundant talents!"

Feng Bao's words were actually mostly empty talk. He couldn't see the attribute table of his ministers.

I only have a general impression in my mind of who is capable and who is not.

But Xiao Cheng knew that now, in the Yun Kingdom court, there were talents with attributes above ninety-five, enough to fill the high positions of third rank and above in all the ministries of the court!

And now, almost every few months, Xiao Cheng can draw a famous minister with 90 attributes.

With so many talents, if there are not enough ways to advance, I am afraid there will be no trouble!

"You just talk about the world under heaven, but do you know how big the world is?" Xiao Cheng asked again.

Feng Bao laughed sarcastically and said:

"As a servant, you are in the palace and have not been able to see beyond the palace walls since you were a child. How can you know how vast the world is?"

"To the west of the Western Region, there is the Great Yuezhi. To the west of the Great Yuezhi, there are other countries. Tang Ruowang, who developed artillery, and Matteo Ricci in Sitianjian came from those countries."

"To the west of our Great Yunnan Territory are the kingdoms of Tianzhu."

"North of the Northern Territory are the grassland tribes. North of the grassland are the bitter cold lands, and there are countries!"

"Even across the sea, there is such a huge land." "The world is so big that Kyushu is not the only land!" Feng Bao was stunned when he heard this.

Due to the limitations of his gaze, he has not yet realized what Xiao Cheng meant.

At this moment, Luan Jia slowly stopped.

An official from the Ministry of Rites came outside the jade chariot and said respectfully:

"Your Majesty, Mount Tai has arrived!"
