In 1636 Bingzi (the ninth year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, the fourteenth year of Injo of Joseon, and the first year of Chongde in the later Jin Dynasty), Huang Taiji was officially renamed emperor from Khan, the country was renamed Qing, and the clan name was Manchuria. North Korea's Li Chao Renzu refused to meet Hou Jin's envoys and refused to accept their letters. On December 2 of the same year, Huang Taiji personally commanded an army of 100,000 to conquer North Korea. After the Qing army crossed the river, they used their skills in field warfare and abandoned the fortified city instead of attacking it. They drove southward and arrived at Wangjing City in just twelve days. Injo sent the princess, prince, and ministers' wives to Ganghwa Island for refuge. He led the civil and military officials to retreat to Namhan Mountain City to wait for the arrival of King Qin's army from all directions. At the same time, he sent Cui Mingji and others to negotiate with the Qing camp to delay time. Huang Taiji ordered the use of artillery to attack the city, and at the same time captured Ganghwa Island and captured 76 princesses, princes, and members of the clan. When the news came, Injo had no choice but to sue for peace when the situation was over.
