Shinsuke Miyamoto is a veteran of officialdom, with a tough mind and a firm will.
Even though he knew that the situation was not good, his mind did not waver in the slightest, and he said without being humble or arrogant: "Reporting to Emperor Qian, not to kneel before the emperor. This is what the previous emperors of Daqian allowed. It is precisely because of this that I did not kneel down."
Zhao Shan said in a deep voice: "If you can speak Daqian Mandarin fluently, you must have come to Daqian to study. Don't you think that once the emperor and his courtiers, I have my own rules when I am the emperor? I just say one word, kneel, or Why don’t you kneel down?”
Miyamoto Shinsuke's expression changed slightly, finally realizing Zhao Shan's domineering and strength.
Totally unreasonable.
Don't give any room to turn.
thump!
Miyamoto Shinsuke knelt down silkily and saluted: "Your Majesty, Miyamoto Shinsuke, pays homage to Emperor Qian."
A smile appeared on Zhao Shan's lips.
That's right.
This is the attitude of asking for mercy.
If you come to beg for mercy and act like an uncle, then your attitude is not correct. Otherwise, who would want to deal with the Japanese country?
Zhao Shan did not let Miyamoto Shinsuke stand up and asked calmly: "Miyamoto Shinsuke, why did you come to Dagan as an envoy?"
Miyamoto Shinsuke explained: "Reporting to Emperor Qian, I am here as an envoy today to protect the survival of Daqian?"
Zhao Shan sneered.
A cliche saying.
It is impossible to win using this method of intimidation.
Zhao Shan was never afraid of intimidation, and said in a deep voice: "Tell me, who can threaten the survival of Daqian? If you don't know clearly, I will order to send troops today to level Japan."
Miyamoto Shinsuke said quickly: "Reporting to Emperor Qian, the reason why we say we are here for the survival of Daqian is because Japan has received news that the Yelang Kingdom in the south is lobbying other countries with the intention of invading Daqian."
"The Yelang Kingdom has developed rapidly in recent years. It has unified the south of Daqian and is very powerful. If the Yelang Kingdom connects with surrounding areas to form a siege on Daqian and launches a large-scale attack, it will be a huge threat to Daqian."
"My Majesty, the Emperor of Japan, received the invitation from Yelang Kingdom, but sternly rejected it and never agreed to the invitation from Yelang Kingdom."
Miyamoto Shinsuke said: "Emperor Qian, this is what I call a life and death crisis."
Zhao Shan sneered: "Just rely on Yelang Kingdom?"
Miyamoto Shinsuke said matter-of-factly: "There are four reasons why I said this."
Zhao Shandao: "I would like to hear the details."
Miyamoto Shinsuke spoke eloquently: "First, as I just mentioned, Yelang Kingdom has a stable government and unified domestic forces. The current Emperor of Yelang Kingdom has been in office for thirteen years and has worked hard to govern. He is an unprecedented hero. "
"Yelang's soldiers are strong, their horses are strong, and their food and grass are abundant. They are capable of fighting Daqian."
"Second, Yelang Country has a special geographical environment."
"Yelang Kingdom is located in the south of Daqian. The border between the two countries is full of deep mountains and jungles. There are many birds, animals, snakes and insects in the mountains and forests."
"The Daqian cavalry is indeed invincible, but it is of no use in the south, and it is difficult to tolerate the mosquitoes and other insects in the south, especially the bad weather. If you are not careful, you will be easily infected with miasma and even epidemic diseases."
"Yelang Kingdom is used to it."
"Third, all countries have a tacit understanding that they do not want to see the rise of Daqian, but only want to see a divided Daqian. Because the rise of Daqian will threaten the Yelang Kingdom, the Southern Barbarians, and even the Northern Wei and Jin Kingdoms. "
"If the Yelang Kingdom launches an offensive, other countries may be in trouble."
"Fourth, there are still many problems within Daqian. There are warlords who are separatist, there are rebel bandits, and there are vassal kings who are disobedient to the court. Amid internal and external troubles, Daqian is in a very difficult situation."
Miyamoto Shinsuke said confidently: "When I first thought about it, I thought of these unfavorable reasons. In fact, if I think about it more carefully, there are more reasons that are not conducive to Daqian, so I said that Daqian is in a life-or-death crisis. "
Zhao Shan said: "There are so many factors that are not conducive to Daqian. This is an opportunity for your Japanese country to take revenge. Why not join Yelang and attack with Yelang Kingdom? Maybe, there is still a chance to win Abe Zhongyuan back."
Miyamoto Shinsuke's expression froze.
He said so confidently, why was Zhao Shan so indifferent.
Aren't you afraid of being attacked?
Miyamoto Shinsuke said bewilderedly: "Japan is a peace-loving country, and it is also a vassal state of Daqian. Naturally, we cannot break promises and do things that are against the will of the people. I, the whole of Japan, will follow Emperor Qian to the death and are willing to fight against Yelang Kingdom with Emperor Qian." Such a despicable country.”
Zhao Shanxiao said: "I have recorded the thoughts of the Japanese king. Go back and tell the Japanese king that I am looking forward to Yelang Kingdom's attack and his performance."
Miyamoto Shinsuke's expression changed again.
What does it mean?
Is that it?
No expression at all?
Miyamoto Shinsuke cannot come empty-handed and return empty-handed, he must achieve his goal.
Miyamoto Shinsuke said again: "Emperor Qian, Japan is still a vassal state of Dagan and is willing to follow Dagan. However, in order to appease the people and ease the relationship between the two countries, I kindly ask Emperor Qian to release me, the Crown Prince of Japan."
Zhao Shan clicked his tongue and said: "You just want to exchange for Abe Zhongyuan by saying that Yelang Kingdom may attack Daqian. You just want to exchange for Abe Zhongyuan? Impossible, I won't accept it."
Shinsuke Miyamoto couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Zhao Shan is really a thief.
It is different from any emperor in Daqian.
The emperor of Daqian always liked fame, liked the coming of all nations to his court, and had an unparalleled obsession with the submission of small and foreign countries.
In the past, Japan changed its strategy and took the initiative to show goodwill to Daqian, expressing its willingness to submit to Daqian and become a vassal state of Daqian. The emperor of Daqian immediately conferred the title, and also granted many benefits, including countless gold, silver and jewelry.
Now, Zhao Shan actually doesn't accept it.
Miyamoto Shinsuke said seriously: "I'm afraid it's not good for Emperor Qian to strive for profit so much."
Zhao Shan said: "I think it's very good. It's really bad if there is no benefit. You are going around in circles just to get Abe Nakahara back."
"My attitude is that without sufficient conditions, it is impossible to exchange for Abe Nakahara. You have already met Abe Keiko, didn't she tell you? Is it impossible to be a white wolf with nothing?"
Zhao Shan said firmly: "Abe Zhongyuan is in my hands. You are not qualified to replace him with your words."
Miyamoto Shinsuke's face fell and he asked: "What conditions does Emperor Qian want before he is willing to let him go?"
Zhao Shandao: "If I want to release Abe Zhongyuan, I have three conditions."
Miyamoto Shinsuke said: "Qian Huang, please speak."
Zhao Shan stretched out his right index finger, shook it and said: "First, the Japanese country took the initiative to start this war, and must pay compensation. I also understand that the Japanese country does not want too much money, only one hundred thousand taels of gold and one million taels of silver , what do you think of the request to sprinkle water?"
"Can!"
Shinsuke Miyamoto answered without hesitation.
It's really not much money.
Miyamoto Shinsuke felt relieved. It seemed that although Zhao Shan was greedy, he was still easy to talk to.
Fortunately, he went around in circles and spared such a big circle, hoping to intimidate Zhao Shan and get Zhao Shan to release Abe Nakahara. If he had known earlier that Zhao Shan only asked for compensation of one million taels of silver, he would have negotiated the terms long ago and wouldn't have wasted his breath.
Zhao Shan continued: "Second, the Japanese state proclaimed its vassalage to Daqian. Since it is a vassalage, it must act like it is a vassal. Go back and inform Abe Yunxiao and ask him to send another son to study in Daqian."
The calmness on Miyamoto Shinsuke's face gradually disappeared.
read?
It's more like being a hostage.
Miyamoto Shinsuke thought that Abe Yunxiao was a stud. He had been in power for many years and had many concubines, and he had more than 20 sons. It's okay to just pick a piece of trash and throw it into Daqian.
Miyamoto Shinsuke reluctantly agreed: "I also made the decision to agree to Emperor Qian's conditions."
Zhao Shan continued: "Third, you mentioned that Yelang Kingdom is going to send troops to attack Daqian. How can I not fight back? I am in charge of Daqian and I am not afraid of any challenge. What matters is that I can go where the enemy can go."
"I want to fight back."
"In order to attack the Yelang Kingdom, the Japanese Kingdom dispatched 50,000 elites to Daqian to accept my dispatch and arrangements."
Zhao Shan said: "As long as we agree to the above three conditions, I will release Abe Zhongyuan and accept Japan as a vassal state of Daqian. If Japan does not agree, there will be no discussion."
Miyamoto Shinsuke's face completely froze.
Fifty thousand elites!
This is not a small number, it is a very large force for Japan.
If 50,000 elite troops are transferred to Daqian, the country will be empty and its strength will be much weaker. Under such a premise, if there is any disturbance in the country, it will easily lead to chaos. The impact of deploying 50,000 elite soldiers is far greater than one hundred thousand taels of gold or one million taels of silver.
This is the big impact.
The emperor would never agree.
Shinsuke Miyamoto was still kneeling on the ground with his butt sticking out. He looked up at Emperor Daqian, who was sitting high on the dragon throne with deep eyes and a majestic appearance. His heart sank completely, and his face looked solemn as never before.
The conditions are too harsh.
How to talk?
Miyamoto Shinsuke's eyes rolled, thinking quickly.
Fortunately, he is an old man. After thinking about it, he took the initiative to express his position: "Your Majesty, Emperor Qian, Japan is weak and has a small population. It does not have such a large number of troops. Our territory in Japan is less than one-tenth of Daqian."
"The population of Japan is no better than that of Dagan. We can easily recruit over 100,000 people."
"Fifty thousand elites cannot raise it."
"Once 50,000 elite troops are mobilized, I am afraid that the country will immediately fall apart and the situation will not be stable."
Miyamoto Shinsuke said loudly: "Can you ask Emperor Qian to adjust one or two to become 10,000 elite soldiers? This is within the scope of my ability to make the decision."
"impossible!"
Zhao Shan refused without hesitation and said forcefully: "Fifty thousand elite soldiers, not one person less."
Zhao Shan had no plans to attack Japan for the time being, but wanted to weaken Japan.
Once the Japanese state agreed to hand over 50,000 elite soldiers, Zhao Shan would disperse them all after receiving them, and disperse them to various places to dig and build roads, or throw them to the Liangzhou border to guard the border, directly utilizing these people.
This weakened Japan's vitality.
In the earliest battle at Hulao Pass, Yagyu Bajing lost part of its Japanese troops. In the Battle of Yangzhou, Abe Nakahara and Yagyu broke through the thousand troops and lost another 20,000 to 30,000 Japanese soldiers.
If Abe Yunxiao sends another 50,000 people, the Japanese country will lose a lot of manpower.
It was of great help to Zhao Shan.
Zhao Shan looked at the hesitant Miyamoto Shinsuke and said: "My conditions cannot be changed. If Japan does not agree, there is no need to talk. I am not afraid of Yelang Kingdom, nor are I afraid of the alliance between Japan and Yelang Kingdom. I also welcome it. Come and attack, so that we can completely annihilate you."
hiss!
Miyamoto Shinsuke took a breath.
Emperor Daqian was too powerful.
How to talk about it?
