※ This video was produced in 2005 and may differ from the current situation. ■ The most dramatic negotiation in Korean history! 280 ri of Goguryeo territory reclaimed through the exploits of Seo Hui!!! Seo Hui's diplomatic negotiations defeated the Khitan army of 800,000 and secured the six prefectures east of the Amnok River (Gangdong)! It was a historic "event" in which the ancient territory up to the vicinity of the Amnok River was reclaimed only 300 years after the fall of Goguryeo. Despite the timid countermeasure of the Goryeo court—which demanded "giving up land" (the theory of territorial surrender) due to being suppressed by the rapidly rising power of the Khitan—Seo Hui's bold decision and success! Ultimately, the Amnok River basin remains to this day. A historical war from a thousand years ago that proclaimed that "Goryeo" was the successor state to Goguryeo! What was Seo Hui dreaming of? ■ Do Khitans like to drink human blood? What kind of country was the "Khitan" to whom the Goryeo court proposed ceding territory? The Khitan, having unified various tribes, changed their national name to "Liao" to strengthen their power, and by destroying Balhae, they instilled fear in the Goryeo court. They were such a ferocious and cruel object of terror that records state, "The Khitans loved to kill people and drink their blood." Meanwhile, although they were a nomadic people, they absorbed the cultures of Balhae and the Central Plains, and the Khitan's golden culture reached a high level! Goryeo fought against such a Khitan for 27 years. ■ The Khitan Reveal Their True Colors and Enter Gaegyeong Leading a 400,000-Strong Army! What was the real reason the Khitan invaded Goryeo only to cede territory and leave? The international situation at the time, composed of the Khitan, Song, Jurchen, and Goryeo, was extremely delicate. In exchange for ceding land to Goryeo to attack the Song, the Khitan sought to sever relations between Goryeo and Song and even block the Jurchen. Ultimately, the Khitan attacked the Song dynasty to their heart's content and subjugated it. Now, Emperor Shengzong of the Khitan turned his attention to Goryeo. The powerful Khitan cavalry, for whom war and daily life were indistinguishable! How did Goryeo respond? Will King Shengzong, who led the Khitan to their greatest golden age, succeed in his expedition to Goryeo? ■ Goryeo Overcomes National Crisis Through Its Own Strength and Rises as an Empire Gang Gam-chan’s Battle of Gwijju was also an achievement forged in the final war between Goryeo and the Khitan! The Khitan suffered a crushing defeat, nearly annihilating them, and were never able to invade Goryeo again. Unlike the Song Dynasty, which obtained peace through a humiliating treaty, Goryeo secured peace by winning the war. The Khitan consumed massive war expenditures during the successive wars with Goryeo and gradually entered a period of decline. Various Jurchen tribes in the Manchurian region surrendered to Goryeo. After subduing the Khitan through its own strength, Goryeo becomes even stronger! ※ This video is [HD History Special - The History War of a Thousand Years Ago: The Goryeo-Khitan War], aired on December 16, 2005. #History #War #GoryeoKhitanWar This is the official KBS Documentary channel.
