On October 12, the fourth year of Guangde, in the Hizen feudal hall, Zuohacheng.
The residence of the head of the Nabeshima family was bustling with people singing and dancing, and a singer in kimono danced among the people.
On the royal eucalyptus beside the Supreme Emperor, two freshly made skull wine glasses were placed neatly.
The gilded surface glowed brightly under the whale oil lamp, reflecting the gold characters on the Supreme Emperor's robe, showing an inexplicable joy.
The commanders and training officers of each regiment of the Central Army were sitting at the bottom of the table, accompanying the Supreme Emperor to a banquet.
A small tatami-like table was placed in front of everyone, and the table was filled with Japanese delicacies:
Mullet-flavored soup, kamaboko, mullet sashimi, scallops, raw seaweed, kamaboko-flavored soup... Of course, radish is always indispensable.
I don't know whether it was the dense radishes that spoiled the Emperor's appetite, or the two cups placed on top of the eucalyptus that made him feel uneasy.
In short, the Supreme Emperor sighed, holding up the kuaizi but unable to place chopsticks.
"Your Majesty, the food is getting cold..."
"Oh, let her cool off," the Supreme Emperor said nonchalantly.
The cuisine of Japan was too shabby. Take the deceased lord of Nabeshima Domain as an example. His tastes and preferences, in the opinion of the Emperor, perfectly matched the characteristics of the nouveau riche.
In the Japanese country where food was severely scarce, the only thing that allowed the Japanese people to eat enough was radishes.
The Japanese name for radish is dagen だいこん, so there is another name for radish cooking that is easily misleading:
Big root burning.
When radish was first introduced to the Japanese country, it could only grow to the thickness of a finger. After the Japanese people's hard cultivation, it has now grown to the thickness of an adult's arm.
It has to be said that the residents of the island country can achieve the ultimate in everything.
As the saying goes, when you enter a country, you should follow the customs. Now that you have arrived in Japan, you have to follow other people's culture.
Either don’t do it, or do it to the extreme.
In today's banquet, the Supreme Emperor also went to the extreme, not only taking full care of the feelings of the living, but also not ignoring the two dead:
Mitsushige Nabeshima was the lord of the Hizen Domain, and Tadayuki Kuroda was the lord of the Fukuoka Domain.
The two deceased people are now sitting quietly on the eucalyptus, watching the monarchs and ministers of Qi State feasting nearby.
Liu Zhaosun picked up a piece of tempura, took a sip of sake, frowned and swallowed it. He looked back at Nabeshima and Kuroda's skull with a satisfied smile on his face.
A group of civil and military ministers below saw that the Supreme Emperor was acting quickly, so they started to feast one after another.
Dongguan Zai stood up, raised his wine glass, and said loudly to the Emperor:
"The Hizen and Fukuoka clans have been destroyed. Among the Kyushu clans, only one Satsuma clan is left. The rest of the Japanese pirates are not worth mentioning! I congratulate your majesty on unifying the Japanese country and sweeping the holes and plowing the court!"
"I wish your majesty has already quelled the Japanese country and achieved great success..."
All the ministers immediately rushed to bow to the Supreme Emperor and said some similar words.
The Supreme Emperor waved his hand, interrupted the flattery of the ministers, and said with a slight smile:
"The Eastern Expedition has not been successful yet, you must continue to work hard."
Seeing the Supreme Emperor speak, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
"The Hizen Clan and the Fukuoka Clan were both destroyed by me, and the two feudal lords were made into drinking vessels by me. The army captured many... However,"
After hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed slightly.
"However, if the shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu is not eliminated, I will not be able to stop my heartache. If I don't kill this person, how will Daqi's face be saved?"...
To put it simply, Ge Min has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard.
Although the food culture of the island country is lackluster, the Saga clan is one of the four major clans of the shogunate, and the Nabeshima family can barely make do with the food (celery, kanggu, fish cakes and gluten).
A group of graceful Japanese singers danced the prawn dance in the center of the hall.
Doing as the Romans do when in town, of course, refers to more than just food.
It is said that Oda Nobunaga, the "Demon King of the Sixth Heaven", has three gold skull wine glasses, which are made from the skulls of the three generals (Asakura Yoshikage, Asai Nagamasa, and Asai Hisamasa) whom Nobunaga defeated during his lifetime. Nobunaga likes after the banquet
Just watch, sing and dance!
Since the Supreme Emperor came to Japan, he naturally wanted to carry forward the traditional culture of Japan.
For example, instructing samurai on how to perform seppuku correctly;
For example, cut off the enemy's head and make it into a drinking vessel (or toilet);
For example, they frequently kill innocent people;
Regarding the last point, it needs to be added that the Supreme Emperor firmly believed in the truth that there was no wronged soul under the iron heel of the Eastern Expedition.
Since the Japanese pirates have spared no effort to cause harm to China in the past hundreds of years, in return, the Supreme Emperor also tacitly allowed each legion to carry out planned "cleaning up" of the occupied areas.
In the autumn and winter of the fourth year of Guangde, the Qi army was invincible in the nine states of the Japanese state. The central and southern armies attacked the city and captured the territory, and they were unstoppable.
As the Chikuzen, Hizen, and Satsuma clans were conquered one after another, brutal massacres began vigorously in all Kyushu clans.
In just two months, the Qi army killed and captured Japanese ashigaru and samurai in the Kyushu formation, totaling more than 100,000 people. By the end of October, there was no organized resistance force on Kyushu Island.
Tokugawa Iemitsu, the general who was stationed in Nagasaki to command the western expedition, immediately fled back to Edo without looking back after hearing that the Hizen and Satsuma clans had been captured by the Qi army.
Under the repeated explanations of Daqi's instructors, everyone from the chief officers of each corps to the ordinary soldiers fully realized the evil nature of Japanese pirates.
More than half of the soldiers in the Eastern Expedition came from coastal provinces. In their distant memories, Japanese pirates were equivalent to demonic existences. Therefore, when the training officers of each battalion came up with the conclusion that the Japanese were descendants of evil gods, the soldiers from all the northern and southern vassals were all The Qi army conquered,.
