Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

"Your Majesty, this little man's life belongs to the Prince. If anything happens to the Prince, just ask him. Even if he goes up the mountain of swords and into the sea of ​​fire, he will still get things done for the Prince." Zheng Zaixu said with excitement on his face.

"You don't need to go up the mountain of swords or the sea of ​​fire. It's a very simple matter. If you do it well, I will reward you." Lin Yi smiled and then said to Zheng Zaixu.

"I feel that Goryeo is a vassal state of the empire. Before the great battle, Goryeo treated the empire with respect."

"But yes, after the great battle, the empire was newly defeated, which allowed the Sakura Kingdom to occupy Goryeo."

"Since that time, Goryeo's national defense system has been destroyed and controlled by the Sakura Empire."

"And now, the empire is once again at war with the Sakura Kingdom, and has achieved considerable results. The empire's army has already advanced to the riverside. The next step is to conquer Goryeo and help Goryeo re-establish its country."

"But, you also know that the re-establishment of the Goryeo nation is, frankly speaking, your own business. You cannot let the soldiers of the empire charge forward, while you, the Goryeo people, hide behind the empire."

"Besides, after the war, it's impossible for the empire to defend Goryeo and build national defense for you."

"So, I plan to start building an army belonging to you Koreans now."

"This army will be formed entirely by you Koreans, but it will need to obey the empire's command during war. How about it? Are you interested in joining?"

Lin Yi slowly finished what he wanted to say, and then leaned back on the chair, waiting for Zheng Zaixu's answer.

Zheng Zaixu understood what Lin Yi meant now.

He was familiar with these words, as people from Sakura Country had also said this to him before.

To put it more bluntly, the empire wanted the Koreans to contribute their talents, form a servant army, and fight with the empire.

Zheng Zaixu didn't think there was anything wrong with Lin Yi's request.

He even knew that Lin Yi wanted them to be cannon fodder, and that was still the case.

Because, in Zheng Zaixu's view, Lin Yi's request can be said to be reasonable, legal and compliant.

You know, Goryeo used to be a vassal state of Daxia, and it was originally obliged to fight with the suzerain country.

However, the previous Daxia simply looked down on the combat effectiveness of the Goryeo army, so it never recruited Goryeo.

Only when there was unrest in Goryeo and Daxia sent troops into Goryeo to help Goryeo quell the unrest, would the Goryeo soldiers take the initiative to fight with Daxia.

There is no way, this is the legal and legal requirement of the suzerain country for the subject country.

Moreover, the Korean people themselves identify with Daxia. To use a more appropriate metaphor, Goryeo always thinks that he is Daxia's biological son, or the eldest son.

But it was later snatched away by an outsider from Sakura Country.

Now the father of Daxia wants to take back the eldest son of Gao Li. Who is the eldest son of Gao Li helping?

Besides, Daxia's father was very kind to Gao Li's eldest son and loved him very much (throughout history), but when he took away his cherry blossoms, he beat and scolded him. Who do you think Gao Li was helping?

(PS: The same is true in the real world. The Ming Dynasty is his biological father and the Qing Dynasty is his stepfather, but no matter what, in the eyes of Goryeo, he is his father, and the island country next door is a human trafficker to him. He wants to Kidnap him.)

(This attitude lasted until the island country was defeated and Korea was divided into two and established an independent country. Only after the troublemaker Sam on the other side of the ocean did he change.)

(If you don’t believe it, you can take a look at North Korea. It was not occupied by Sam and is now respectful to us.)

Zheng Zaixu didn't think too much about this request, which the Koreans considered to be reasonable, legal and reasonable.

"My lord, are you telling the truth? Can we Koreans really fight with the empire again?" Zheng Zaixu said excitedly.

"Why, you don't want to?" Lin Yi glanced at Zheng Zaixu and murmured.

"No, Your Majesty has misunderstood. It is my honor to be able to follow the Celestial Dynasty and fight in all directions together!"

"Your Majesty, I am also willing to serve you! Please give me a chance!" Zheng Zaixu lowered his head and said sincerely to Lin Yi.

Hearing what Zheng Zaixu said, a smile appeared on Lin Yi's face.

"I won't give you a chance, why do you come here?" Lin Yi said with a smile: "I plan to form two divisions first, and you are the leader of one of them. What do you think?"

When Zheng Zaixu heard that Lin Yi was going to form two divisions and named him to be the division commander of one of the divisions, he was immediately excited.

You know, he was just a brigade commander before, but now, the number of troops in his hands has doubled several times.

Moreover, he also knew that there was a ready-made division commander of the former Goryeo Servant Army in Dandong City.

But Lin Yi chose him instead of An Zaixian, what does this mean? It means that he has now fallen into Lin Yi's eyes.

As long as you work hard, are you afraid that you won't have glory and wealth in the future?

It is much better to serve the people of Daxia than to serve the people of Sakura country.

At least no one would jump out and call him a traitor.

"My lord, I am willing, I am willing! Being able to serve your prince is my lifelong wish!" Zheng Zaixu looked eager, fearing that if he hesitated, Lin Yi would choose someone else.

As the saying goes, opportunities are reserved for shameless people, and now Zheng Zaixu has done it. If he wasn't worried about Lin Yi's mysophobia, he would have hugged Lin Yi's thigh and called Lin Yi daddy.

"Very good, I am indeed right. Commander Zheng really has a patriotic heart." Lin Yi said with a smile.

Zheng Zaixu's reaction was all what he expected.

"Commander Zheng, starting from tomorrow, I will give you five days to form your own division."

"Weapons and ammunition, the empire has captured a lot of weapons from the Sakura people on the battlefield, you can use these weapons first."

"In addition, there are a few things that I want to explain clearly to you first. I hope you can remember them firmly."

"Article [-], you can no longer use the title of the Koryo Servant Army. From now on, you will be renamed the Koryo National Salvation Army. The divisions under your jurisdiction will be ranked as the First Division and the Second Division of the Koryo National Salvation Army."

"Second, the Korea National Salvation Army needs to obey the empire's command during the war and advance and retreat with the empire! If they hear the order and refuse to execute it, they will be dealt with according to the imperial military law!"

"Third, the Korea National Salvation Army fought to save Korea. Therefore, if there are people who fear the war after hearing orders during the war, the empire has the right to shoot them directly without trial."

"Remember, there is no immunity under this rule. No matter whether it is a soldier or an officer, even if you are a division commander, as long as you dare to fight, the empire has the right to kill you directly. I hope you can remember this."

"Article [-]. Although the Korean National Salvation Army is currently organized according to divisions, I don't like one organization. Therefore, after the war, this organization will definitely be abolished."

"The empire will consider the future establishment of the Goryeo Army in detail before notifying it. Therefore, the division establishment is only temporary and is not your end point."

"I think you can climb higher, but all this requires you to be able to achieve a convincing record in this battle, do you understand?"
