Ye Feng didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"First!" Ye Feng said calmly, "I, Daxia, want to establish rules!"
"Eastern Ocean has been a vassal state of my Daxia since ancient times. Later, taking advantage of the decline of my Daxia, it broke away from the control and became its own master, dominating the East China Sea. It has always been disobedient!"
"Now our country, Daxia, is far superior to the Han and Tang Dynasties in the Weijia Sea. It is once again a grand event that has not been seen for thousands of years. All the surrounding barbarians are surrendering! You Dongyang people should not stay out of the matter, and you should also return to the jurisdiction of my Daxia!"
"Today we re-sign the treaty and stipulate that Dongyang will be a vassal state of Daxia, and we will treat it as a king and father!"
"You, the Tokugawa Shogunate, can still govern the Eastern Islands, but you must treat me as the suzerain state of Daxia, pay tribute every year, and pay homage every year, without any mistakes!"
As soon as these words came out, the scene was in an uproar again.
I'm afraid no one would have thought that the first of the three chapters of the agreement was so outrageous. How could anyone accept it?
If the Tokugawa shogunate signed this treaty, what would be the difference between the Tokugawa shogunate and the subjugated king? What a shame!
"You, you, you...this is complete nonsense!"
Tokugawa Yusuke was so angry that he could hardly speak, and he corrected him.
"I, I, I...when did I, Dongyang, become a vassal state of your Daxia?"
"From the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, to the Han and Tang dynasties, we, the East, have always been independent from overseas and have no conflict with you. When will we be under your control?"
"If you want to say that our neighbor Goguryeo is your vassal state, it's almost enough. We in the East have at most sent a few batches of envoys to your Tang Dynasty and learned a little bit about you. How can we talk about vassal states? It's just like What nonsense!"
Seriously speaking, Okinawa was the only prefecture on the Eastern side that was indeed protected by Daxia. However, later, taking advantage of the decline of Daxia, Okinawa was forcibly occupied by Dongyang. Now Okinawa has become the garrison of the Bald Eagle Kingdom. .
In addition, there is a clear distinction between Daxia and Dongyang, and since ancient times, even Dongyang has not been able to get the slightest advantage, let alone control by the suzerain country.
Ye Feng naturally knows this history very well.
Even Han Shanhe felt his face turn red after hearing this. I wonder if Brother Ye did it on purpose, or simply because he didn't learn history well and confused Dongyang with other vassal states?
It's so embarrassing to make something out of nothing.
However, history is also written by the victors. History belongs to history and reality belongs to reality.
Ye Feng is not here today to talk about historical issues with the people in the East, but to make them understand the reality!
"Why haven't you done it!?" Ye Feng said forcefully, "I said yes, and yes! Do you have any objections!?"
"Even if it didn't happen before, it will already happen from now on!"
"You——!?" When Tokugawa Yusuke saw this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. This is simply unreasonable!
The ministers of the shogunate also offered their opinions and suggestions one after another, and quoted from other sources, refuting what Ye Feng had just said as nonsense.
And once they become suzerain states, the two countries will completely form a relationship of superiority and inferiority and father and son.
From now on, the people of Daxia, even in the East, will enjoy all privileges, and they will have no right to interfere even with crimes here.
The bald eagles stationed in Okinawa often harassed the Oriental people, which made the shogunate miserable.
It's easy to ask the gods but hard to send them away. The bald eagle garrison hasn't been driven away yet, and now the Great Summer is coming again. It really feels like you're singing and I'm coming on stage. What do you think of the East - a colony! ?
"There is no way I, Dongyang, will accept such a treaty!"
The eldest son Tokugawa Taro slammed the table again and refused angrily.
The second son Tokugawa Jiro on the side also nodded secretly.
He thought to himself: The first of the three chapters of this agreement is so outrageous. I wonder if there are any other excessive conditions in the future?
This Daxia man surnamed Ye was really bullying others. He did not show sincerity in the peace talks at all, but just messed around!
No matter how powerful you are, you still have to be reasonable!
In the unanimous rejection of everyone, Tokugawa Yusuke resisted the urge to lift the table, thinking that he should put the overall situation first.
He originally wanted to refuse outright, but driven by curiosity, he still wanted to hear more about the so-called three chapters of the agreement and what were the other two treaties?
"Continue!" Yusuke Tokugawa suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice, "What about the other two? Tell me!"
Everyone around him was equally curious and listened attentively.
