"What did you say? You'an (Zhu Tingshi) was taken away by people from the Goryeo government office?!"
Sun Shiyi asked the visitor in shock.
This man's name was Li Hubin, and he was one of the Korean scholars who was successfully taught by Sun Shiyi and Zhu Tingzhu and hoped that the Ming Dynasty could unify the world.
Moreover, Li Hubin was still a descendant of Goryeo nobles, so he had access to a lot of real-time information.
But what Sun Shiyi didn't expect was that what Li Hubin brought him this time was the news that Zhu Tingshi had been arrested.
"Yes, I heard it with my own ears, because it was my brother who was ordered to catch him!"
Li Hubin said and added: "It is said that someone has tipped off and will come to arrest you next. Come with me quickly and I will take the password and leave here."
Sun Shiyi nodded after hearing this: "Thank you!"
Therefore, Sun Shiyi escaped from Goryeo with the help of Li Hubin and went to the Ningwu Kingdom, one of the Ming Dynasty vassal states.
The Ningwu Kingdom was a vassal state of Zhou Yuji.
Because of Zhou Yuji's outstanding achievements, Zhu Youxiao named him the Ningwu Kingdom after he voluntarily handed over his military power, and as he wished, it was sealed in the area of today's Panama.
Zhou Yuji was sealed in Panama, so it was naturally Zhu Youpiao who took care of him.
Because as long as a canal is dug here, it will shorten the trade line from the Pacific to the Atlantic, which means there will be a steady stream of revenue from the gate.
In fact, Zhou Yuji is indeed doing this now, and therefore took the initiative to raise funds from the court, recruited a large amount of manpower and material resources, and has been quietly digging the canal.
The Ming court also supported it.
Because the Ming Dynasty also needed that one day it would be more convenient for naval forces and merchant ships to enter and leave the two oceans.
Zhu Tingzhu was indeed caught in Xinjing, the current capital of Goryeo, because of a traitor's report.
In the original history, this place should have been called Santiago, but now that it has become the capital of Korea, the Koreans named it Xingjing.
Xu Shanlie even came to see Zhu Tingshi in person and said, "I have prepared eighteen kinds of torture. Are you ready?"
Zhu Tingzhu said: "What do you want to do?"
Xu Shanlie smiled and said: "You tell me what I want to do! Of course I want to punish you, the traitors who ruined our country of Goryeo!"
Zhu Tingzhu snorted coldly and said, "Are you sure you want to torture me?"
Xu Shanlie glanced at Zhu Tingshu: "Otherwise."
"Are you really going to torture me?"
Zhu Tingshi continued to ask.
Xu Shanlie gradually understood the meaning of Zhu Tingzhu's words and said, "Are you Han?"
Zhu Tingzhu did not answer him clearly, but only said: "Anyway, you should think about it carefully. Sometimes it is better to prepare an escape route for yourself!"
Xu Shanlie frowned after hearing this.
"Leading the administration, do you want to be punished?"
Li Jiwei asked from the side.
Xu Shanlie suddenly waved his hand, then bowed to Zhu Tingshu and said, "How offended!"
Immediately, Xu Shanlie ordered: "Take off his shackles and invite him to the Nuan Pavilion, where he will be well served!"
"this……"
Li Jiwei was a little puzzled.
"He is right. There must be a way out. Even if punishment is needed, it cannot be us."
Xu Shanlie said something.
Li Jiwei then replied helplessly: "Yes!"
After that, Xu Shanyeol was invited by Emperor Lee Yin of Korea.
It turned out that England sent a letter of credence, inviting France, Japan, and Gao to each send an important minister as their representative to Charlotte, England, to discuss matters related to the Ming Dynasty.
"According to the news brought by the English, the Ming Dynasty has completed the unification of Europe. Now only America and Africa are left in the world that have not been unified by it. And they believe that the Ming army will most likely unify the Americas first, so , we need the four countries to unite, this is indeed a very important matter, it is up to you to go there in person to discuss the affairs."
Li Yan ordered Xu Shanlie.
After hearing this, Xu Shanlie couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that Zhu Tingzhu, who might be a Han, was not punished, so he replied: "I obey the order."
A few months later.
Charlottetown.
The Duke of England, Monmouth, the Consul of Korea, Heo Sun-yeol, the French Provost, and the Japanese leader, Hota Masatoshi, were all gathered together at this time.
"snort!"
Because the Japanese shogunate army once massacred France with the support of the Ming Dynasty, France and Japan have always had conflicts. If the threat posed by the Ming Dynasty had not been too great, they would not have come together under the auspices of England. , but even so, the two parties still made faces with each other after meeting.
"snort!"
The Japanese state and Goryeo have always had conflicts, so the two parties also made a show of their feelings.
There is no conflict between England and these three countries.
Otherwise, England would not be the one to take the initiative.
Monmouth therefore spoke first: "Our four countries are now in the same situation. Our homeland is occupied by the greedy Ming Dynasty, and now they have not stopped their pace of expansion. Next, they will undoubtedly try to swallow up America, and this means that we The four countries must unite! And therefore, let go of the old grudges! Because only people in the Ming Dynasty are willing to see that the four countries cannot stand together."
"The Duke of Monmouth said that there is no problem. We should no longer expect the Ming Dynasty to have any good thoughts towards us and allow our regime to exist! It will cause us to completely lose our freedom!"
Pross first agreed and said: "For this reason, I am willing to reconcile with the Japanese country."
Hota Masatoshi said: "We, the Japanese country, are also willing to reconcile. We hope that we can put aside our prejudices and deal with the threat of the Ming Dynasty! However, I hope that our general can become the co-leader of the entire alliance, because the undoubted fact is that our Japanese country is one of the four countries. The strongest."
"I don't agree with this! Your Japanese country is no better than my country, Goryeo, which is the most powerful country closest to the technological level of the Ming Dynasty!"
Xu Shanlie replied at this time.
Pross said: "In my opinion, it is more appropriate for the King of England to be the leader of the alliance."
"Let's vote by a show of hands to see who gets more support."
Monmouth suggested at this time.
Hota Masatoshi raised his hand first and said: "I propose that the General Zhengyi of our Japanese country be the leader of the alliance!"
Xu Shanlie raised his hand and said: "I propose that His Majesty, the Emperor of Korea, be the leader of the alliance!"
After Hota Masatoshi and Xu Shanyeol expressed their stance, Monmouth raised his hand and said: "I propose that I, the King of England, be the leader of the alliance!"
Pross then followed: "I agree that the King of England will be the leader of the alliance."
Monmouth therefore laughed and said: "The one who supports me, the King of England, has two votes, and your general and His Majesty the Emperor have one person and one vote. In this case, I, the King of England, will be the leader of the alliance."
Hota Masatoshi was very angry because of this, but he could only nod in agreement. However, he still complained to Xu Sunyeol of Goryeo: "After all, we were neighbors separated by a strip of water. Why can't we unite with them like Britain and France?!"
Xu Shanlie did not answer, only smiled and said: "The King of England is naturally the most suitable leader."
As a result, England became the leader of the Four-Nation Alliance.
"The ambition of the Ming Dynasty to unify the Americas is very certain. No matter how strong our desire for peaceful coexistence is, it is impossible. This is a situation where you die or I live. I believe that you all are also aware of it. It’s clear, so, in my opinion in England, we should unite and take the initiative to attack the Ming Dynasty’s forces in America, and let them lose the springboard to land directly!”
Monmouth then talked about his thoughts on England.
"You England mean to attack Florida, which is held by the Ming Dynasty?"
Masatoshi Hotta asked.
"Exactly!"
Monmouth nodded.
"Agree! It's impossible to hope that if we don't take the initiative to attack the Ming Dynasty, we can prevent the Ming Dynasty from invading us!"
Pross agreed.
"In that case, then send troops to castrate all the Han people on the American continent and turn them into our slaves! Completely break with the Ming Dynasty!"
Hota Masatoshi continued.
"We, Goryeo, take the initiative to send troops to the Ming Dynasty. It would be great if we can wipe out the Ming Dynasty's forces in the Americas before the main troops of the Ming Dynasty land in the Americas!"
Xu Shanlie then asked again: "I just don't know if we have this ability. After all, the Ming Dynasty is very strong in science and technology, and the Ming army is also very brave and good at fighting. There have been actual battles in these years. We can't make rash decisions, we have to be serious." Just think about it!"
"That's why we have to come together to discuss and discuss. I hope that the four countries can announce their respective troop numbers and weapons stocks. In addition, it is best to share technology. England can already produce its own rifled guns and rifled cannons, but the bullets are still the same as before. Ball bullets, do you have better gun bullet manufacturing skills, I, England, are willing to spend money to buy them."
Monmouth said.
"We, the Japanese country, have successfully imitated the conical bullets used by the Ming army! We are willing to sell such bullets to the three countries. In addition, according to our undercover lurking in Ming Guoning, the Ming Dynasty has only about 200,000 troops in the Americas."
Masatoshi Hotta said.
Xu Shanlie said: "We previously sent people pretending to be Han Chinese to learn a complete set of electromagnetic theory at the Mingguo Polytechnic School. Now we can set up wired telegraphs. We are willing to lay telegraph lines for you for a fee."
"In the end, it was easy for you Easterners to explore the scientific knowledge and skills of the Ming Dynasty."
After Monmouth said this, he added: "That's good. As long as our four countries can gather half a million troops and produce and supply firearms on their own, we don't have to worry about eliminating the Ming Dynasty's power in America first! Then, along the coastline Build a sufficiently tight defense depth.”
"In this case, I propose to set up a joint command, and the main armies of each department will be organized into the joint command, and the wired telegraph technology of Korea will be used to achieve coordinated operations among various countries!"
Pross suggested at this time.
Representatives from the other three countries agreed.
Hota Masatoshi, the eldest boss of the Japanese country, even said in a forward-looking tone: "Perhaps, there will be a day when we enslave the Han people in the Ming Dynasty! And let every Han girl become a plaything!"
"Speaking of the Han people, the Ming Dynasty has not been idle either. It has planted a lot of spies in Korea. I am about to give advice to His Majesty to clean them up!"
Xu Shanlie said.
"We are the same, and we have also captured many. As long as we catch them, whether they are Han or Japanese, we will skin them, cramp them, and torture them to death!"
Hota Masatoshi sneered.
"I suggest that all the captured Ming Guo spies be handed over to the Joint Command. At that time, the Joint Command will set up an interrogation department, and the Joint Command Interrogation Department will interrogate these Ming Guo spies, and then we can find out more about the Ming Guo. to help us resist the invasion of the Ming army."
Monmouth suggested at this time.
"Okay, when the time comes, I will escort the people we captured to the joint command headquarters."
Xu Shanlie replied that in his opinion, in that case, he could blame the torture of the Han people in the Ming Dynasty on the joint command, saying that it was caused by the coercion of the other three countries, if the Ming Dynasty would really unify the Americas.
Representatives from the other three countries also agreed.
"Your name is Zhu Tingzhu? You have the same surname as the tyrant of the Ming Dynasty. You are not a descendant of the Ming Dynasty clan, are you? Okay, I will deal with you first!"
As a result, Zhu Tingshi was taken to the Interrogation Department of the Four Nations Joint Command in Charlotte, and the Japanese man in charge of the interrogation department, Ogiwara Shigehide, pulled Zhu Tingshi's hair with one hand and spoke viciously.
Zhu Tingzhu looked at him, sneered and said, "If you want to kill me or chop me into pieces, please do so! If I die in the hands of barbarians like you today, I will be unlucky!"
boom!
After hearing this, Ogiwara Shigehide, who was in charge of the interrogation because he knew Chinese, slammed Zhu Tingshi's head against the wall, and then sneered: "You will beg for mercy later!"
"Hang him up, cut his flesh, and sprinkle salt on him!"
Ogiwara Shigehide gave an order and then said: "I heard that your Ming country calls this Ling Chi. I hate that my emperor was tortured to death by you like this. Today, I will let you Han people have a taste of this!"
As Ogiwara Shigehide spoke, he added: "Hang up the other captured Ming people like this, and do the same! Whoever thinks of useful information for us first can avoid being cut!"
"No, no!"
At this time, a Han man named Yu Chunzhen became frightened and began to murmur.
Zhu Tingzhu roared when he saw this, and endured the pain, and shouted to Yu Chunzhen: "What are you afraid of! As a son of the Han family, you should be proud! And since you have chosen to devote your life to the cause of the Han family, you don't have to worry about any hardships. We are so timid! Don’t beg the enemy at all! Believe that our compatriots will avenge us!”
Seeing this, Ogihara Shigehide pointed at Zhu Tingshi and ordered: "Cut his tongue first!"
"Hi!"
For a moment, Zhu Tingshi's mouth was filled with blood.
When Yu Chunzhen saw this, he was even more frightened and said: "I, I said, we are all here to preach Han thoughts and promote the idea of unification. We were trained by King Ningxi. We are just helping him find out about your situation and develop development along the way." Some people who are willing to support the unification of the Ming Dynasty; because King Ningxi said that the Ming Dynasty will use troops against the Americas sooner or later, and we are the agents lurking here..."
Ogiwara Shigehide laughed proudly and asked Yu Chunzhen: "Tell me who you have developed."
Therefore, Yu Chunzhen spoke out.
After hearing this, Ogiwara Shigehide said: "Very good!"
Then, Ogiwara Shigehide asked the others: "Where are you?"
"bring it on!"
A senior detail worker who was also captured looked at Yu Chunzhen with disdain, and then said something.
Therefore, Ogiwara Shigehide waved his hand, took a knife and came to the great detail maker, and used the knife on him.
This fine work has been gritted and endured without saying a word.
And another Ming Dynasty official who was captured by the Ming Dynasty simply shouted: "Long live the Ming Dynasty!"
In the end, except for a few Han people who could not bear the torture and told everything they knew, most people endured the pain and died.
However, these Han people who were spared Ling Chi because they confessed everything they knew were eventually framed on the pyre.
Ogiwara Shigehide explained: "Although you are very cooperative with us, you Han people are not worthy of living in this world! Therefore, I decided to burn you to death! Didn't your Ming Dynasty want red flames to burn all over the earth? Then burn it first It’s yourselves.”
Ogiwara Shigehide sneered as he spoke and ordered: "Light the fire!"
These Han people then screamed as they were burned as the fire began to get bigger.
Yu Chunzhen shouted in a hurry and wisely: "I used to be in a mechanical school. I understand machinery and I understand internal combustion engines!"
Ogiwara Shigehide nodded after hearing this: "Very good! Let him live!"
