"Hehehe."
Seeing Chen Kun's low profile, many famous people and retainers present sneered. Is that so?
Sun Tzu's Art of War for the Han people.
"The best policy is to subdue the enemy's troops without fighting."
Wu Nian asked General Wang Gui to lead hundreds of thousands of troops to station in Jeju Island, and hoard mountains of military supplies, assuming a posture of attacking Ryukyu and fighting a bloody battle with Fuso.
But it turned out to be a threat.
Is it to win the diplomatic environment?
If you encounter a weaker general, you may be afraid of the power of the Han army and choose to compromise. After all, Ryukyu’s stone height is only a few hundred thousand.
The loss of war may be ten times or even a hundred times that of Ryukyu Stone.
Even when two countries clash, one country collapses.
The price is too high, and the gain outweighs the loss.
But Toyotomi's first shogun was not weak, but quite strong. and.
They are also very strong.
They are all samurai who fought out from the Warring States Period and reached the peaceful age. Who is afraid of war?
Some people may have their blood boiling.
Just like most people think. Toyotomi Daikichi laughed loudly when he heard this, and said to Chen Kun: "Not an inch of my Fuso land is redundant."
"Although Ryukyu is small, it is also Fuso's land. I will not give it to Wu Nian."
"Let's go. If Wu Nian wants Ryukyu, let his army come over. Let's fight. Whoever wins, Ryukyu will be his."
"The General is right. Use your sword to talk to us." Neji Kumamoto put his right hand on the wakizashi at his waist, holding the scabbard, and pulled it out slightly. The blade was shining and very sharp.
"Okay. Now that we have talked about it, there is nothing more to say. Let's meet on the battlefield." Chen Kun's face turned pale, then he stood up, said something loudly, and walked away.
He was like an envoy whose negotiation failed and became angry.
When he turned around, the expression on his face became subtle, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, then stopped, and he strode away expressionlessly.
"Your Majesty, my mission has been completed. If General Toyotomi can't figure it out, then he will firmly station his army in Kyushu. A sneak attack on the Kyoto Plain will definitely succeed."
Thinking of this, Chen Kun became more and more happy.
Although he was a scholar, he was also a doctor in the Ministry of Etiquette. But the civil servants of the Han Dynasty were somewhat fierce. He fully supported Wu Nian's career.
Destroy the enemy and destroy the country, turning your hand into clouds and turning your hand into rain.
I, His Majesty King Jianwu, do the same.
Although Chen Kun left in "humiliation and anger", Toyotomi Daikichi maintained his grace, let Xiao surname come in, politely sent Chen Kun away, and explained.
If Chen Kun leaves immediately, there will be no need to worry about it.
If Chen Kun is leaving tomorrow, then we will arrange a rest at the hotel and entertain him with singing and dancing.
That means properly arranging envoys.
We need to let the people of Han know that we are also a country of etiquette.
After Chen Kun left, Toyotomi Daikichi smiled and said to everyone: "You should have guessed Wu Nian's thoughts, right?"
"This is pure intimidation."
"As the saying goes, it is the best policy to subjugate the enemy without fighting. But on the other hand, doesn't it also prove that Wu Nian felt powerless when he was on the other side of the strait, looking at the rough sea?"
"Besides, Wu Nian is in the north and south, as well as the two powerful states of Mongolia, Yuan and Chu. He must have scruples in his heart. This time is probably a bluff."
"After Chen Kun goes back to report, he should retreat."
"However, just in case, we still need to strengthen our vigilance. My lords, an arrogant soldier will be defeated. Please cheer up."
Toyotomi Daikichi suddenly straightened his chest and abdomen, and spoke loudly with a sparkle in his eyes.
"Yes." Everyone immediately calmed down, then bent down, put their hands on the tatami, and responded loudly.
"Yeah." Toyotomi Daikichi hummed, then with a smile on his face, he said, "But. Wu Nian is still in Jeju Island now, out of reach."
"I just came to Higo and I'm very sleepy. Let's have a good drink. Neji-sama. Bring your most beautiful singer here and sing and dance to entertain you."
Toyotomi Daikichi turned to Kumamoto Neji again.
"Yes." Kumamoto Neji responded loudly, then said sorry, stood up and turned around to leave.
"Hahaha. The general is right. Marching on horseback is indeed hard work. I just want the warm embrace of a woman to soothe my fatigue."
"That's right. A beautiful woman is the most beautiful thing in the world."
Soon the sound of singing and dancing filled the room.
Toyotomi Daikichi personally visited Kumamoto Castle in Higo Kingdom and confronted the Han army.
.............
Jeju Island, originally a lively and prosperous port, was occupied by the Han army. Countless ships carried massive supplies to the port, and were then transported to the military camp by the Han army.
Although the weather was cold, the soldiers and civilians were sweating profusely.
Inside the Chinese army's tent.
After hearing Chen Kun's report, Wu Nian nodded gently, with a little joy in his brows. Then he looked at the dusty Chen Kun, waved his hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Chen. Go down and rest."
"Yes." Chen Kun was indeed tired after crossing the strait back and forth. He showed a tired look, bent down and saluted before going down.
As soon as Chen Kun left, Wu Nian asked the imperial guards to gather civil and military forces.
Soon after, Xinqi Governor Cheng Yulian and the generals arrived at the Chinese army's tent. After saluting Wu Nian, they each took their seats.
Wu Nian raised his eyes with determination and smiled: "Toyotomi Daiki has probably fallen into the trap. We will act according to the plan."
"Li Tianbao, tomorrow you will lead four generals, Dai Quanzhong, Zhang Dianshu, Qian Botao, and Liu Tianfang, and a naval force of 50,000 households. You will head towards Kyushu Island with great momentum, assuming a decisive battle with the Fuso Navy. .But don’t actually fight them.”
"Small naval battles with them, entangled endlessly."
"Yes." Li Tianbao and the other five cheered up, stood up and responded loudly, then sat back.
"Isshin Matsudaira. With the infantry generals, continue to stay on Jeju Island with the others. When General Lee is entangled with Toyotomi Daikichi, take a remote route and sneak into Wakasa Country. According to the plan, capture the Kyoto Plain."
"I want to sleep peacefully in the palace of Emperor Fuso, who is said to be a lineage of eternity. Everyone, I leave it to you."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The main force of Toyotomi Daikichi's Fuso force is in Kyushu. As long as they get ashore, I and others are just dragons, just in the Kyoto plain. It doesn't matter."
Lu Liuliang was very heroic. He stood up and raised his right hand to pat his chest, which was very powerful and domineering.
"Okay. General Lu is really a strong man." Wu Nian admired his heroic spirit and nodded happily, praising him.
Immediately, all the civil and military personnel dispersed to prepare. Wu Nian walked out of the big tent and looked in the direction of Fusang, full of determination and enterprising spirit.
Although the sea is vast, it cannot stop my heart.
When encountering mountains, climb mountains, when encountering seas, cross seas.
