After listening to Li Jin's situation analysis, Liu Bowen said:
"Why not also form an alliance with the Ashikaga family of the Northern Dynasties?"
Zhu Biao was confused first and said:
"Mr. Liu, we have now signed a contract with Nanchao."
"Would it be a violation of morality to ally with the Northern Dynasty again?"
"And if the Northern and Southern Dynasties know at the same time that we are allied with each other, I am afraid that these two parties will attack us at the same time."
Zhu Biao felt a little weird, but Li Jin lowered his head and frowned, thoughtfully.
Liu Bowen explained calmly:
"First of all, I heard from Mr. Li that the Southern and Northern Dynasties are already incompatible with each other, and it is unlikely that they will exchange news."
"Secondly, even if these two parties join forces, they are just at odds with each other and cannot be our opponents."
"In the end, we don't need to sign any treaty with the Northern Dynasties. We just tell them that if we can get back the so-called three Japanese artifacts, we will agree to form an alliance with them and recognize their orthodox status."
"Although the Southern Dynasty has signed a peace treaty with us, they want us to go to war with the Northern Dynasty, so they agreed to lease Shanin Province to us."
"Since they are using each other, why not directly provoke a war between the South and the North?"
"When the Northern and Southern Dynasties are exhausted, it will be the day when our Ming Dynasty sends troops."
Li Jin's eyes lit up when he heard Liu Bowen's explanation, then he clapped his hands and smiled:
"Wonderful, really wonderful."
"Mr. Liu's move really takes the saying that there are only interests and no friends between countries to the extreme."
"Both the Southern and Northern Dynasties will eventually fall at the feet of our Ming Dynasty, so why should we care too much about their lives and lives?"
"I'm going to call the envoy from the Ashikaga family from the Northern Dynasty."
Seeing that Li Jin was so anxious, Liu Bowen quickly stopped him and said:
"Master Li, don't be anxious, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"After Mr. Li reaches an agreement with the Ashikaga family of the Northern Dynasty, he can send someone to inform the Southern Dynasty and tell them that the Ashikaga family of the Northern Dynasty intends to snatch their three artifacts."
"No matter what, we must let the Southern and Northern Dynasties fight."
"Now that Mr. Li plans to use North Korea as a transit point, he should focus on the Ishigami, Dengzhou and Busan lines during this period."
"After all the logistical work is completed and the connection between Daming and Shi Jian can be unimpeded, we can come out to clean up the mess."
Li Jin once again felt the power of Mr. Liu in front of him, and he was strategizing to win the battle thousands of miles away.
He does things in a flawless manner, never giving the opponent a chance, and at the same time, his attacks can be fatal, targeting the opponent's vital points.
Steady, accurate, ruthless, awesome, really awesome.
Li Jin bowed and saluted Mr. Liu and said:
"Mr. Talented."
"I wonder if there is anything else you want to explain?"
Mr. Liu shook his head and said:
"Until the incident on the Japanese island is over, I will stay with Marshal Xu and will not leave."
"If something unexpected happens, you can come to the City Lord's Mansion to find me."
Liu Bowen was dressed in a clean and airy manner, with a smile on his face and his right hand gently stroking his beard. He looked as if he was enigmatic and enigmatic.
Li Jin cupped his hands, then turned and left, heading to the inn.
Zhu Biao did not follow Li Jin this time. Instead, after Li Jin left, he asked excitedly:
"Master Liu, why are you here too?"
Liu Bowen's Immortal Style Dao Bone just now broke through his defense instantly, his face also fell, and he said:
"It's not that your father is worried about you."
"In addition, the emperor is becoming more and more concerned about the Japanese island, and he is worried that something will go wrong."
"After all, one hundred thousand Ming Dynasty troops will soon gather on the Japanese island."
"If something goes wrong, I'm afraid Ming Dynasty will be seriously injured."
"Now this is an attempt by the Emperor to go overseas. If it succeeds, Tomorrow will have unusual overseas policies."
"Japanese island cannot tolerate mistakes, so it can only let me, an old man, come forward."
"This sea is really not a place for people to stay. I was so dizzy from vomiting."
"Li Jin plans to open up the Dengzhou-Busan line, which is indeed a good choice."
Zhu Biao smiled knowingly when he heard Liu Bowen's complaint.
Although Liu Bowen looked reluctant, Zhu Biao knew Liu Bowen's feelings for the Ming Dynasty. Now it is self-evident that Wo Dao has a great influence on the future of the Ming Dynasty.
This is the reason why Liu Bowen came.
Zhu Biao thought about it carefully and found that there was already a group of the best people from the Ming Dynasty gathered on the Japanese island.
Xu Da of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty, Liu Bowen, Zhu Yuanzhang's think tank, and himself, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty.
There are also Tang He, Lan Yu, Zhu Di, Li Jin and others, which can be said to be a gathering of stars.
If even people like them can't take the Japanese island, it means that the Japanese island is destined not to be owned by the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty will continue to implement the sea ban in the future.
After Liu Bowen complained, he began to tell Zhu Biao and Xu Da about the current situation in the DPRK and what Zhu Yuanzhang had explained before coming.
...
the other side.
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu has been staying in the inn room for more than half a month. They have never gone out since the last time they saw the Ming envoy.
A few days ago, there was a huge explosion in Iwami Castle, like thunder on the ground, startling the pensive Ashikaga Yoshimitsu.
But at that time, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu remembered that it was clearly sunny, so why was there thunder?
The sound seemed to come from the east. Ashikaga Yoshimitsu wanted to go out and take a look, but was stopped by the guards.
Now that so much time had passed, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu could no longer wait any longer. He asked to see Suzuki Shigehide, but the result was that he continued to wait.
Suzuki Shigehide was also anxious, but he knew the purpose of his visit this time. Suzuki Shigehide would not give up until he achieved his goal.
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, a young man, was finally a little impatient, but Suzuki Shigehide was the leader of this mission, and Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was helpless.
On this day, when Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was reading a book, the Ming envoy finally summoned them again.
Suzuki Shigehide and Ashikaga Yoshimitsu did not dare to delay, and hurried to the living room and saw the young Ming envoy again.
"I'm sorry, our Emperor Ming finally rejected your request for alliance."
As soon as Li Jin met, he gave the two of them a bolt from the blue.
"My lord, why?"
Suzuki Shigehide hurriedly stepped forward and asked:
"Isn't it because our sincerity is not strong enough?"
Suzuki Shigehide was very anxious. If the Ming Dynasty and Emperor Daigo of the Southern Dynasties were really allowed to form an alliance, they would definitely suffer disaster.
No matter what, they couldn't just go back.
Li Jin shook his head and said:
"We, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, believe that your Ashikaga family in the Northern Dynasty is not orthodox after all, and cannot represent a country to form an alliance with our Ming Dynasty."
"Sir, we can ask our Emperor Mingguang to come forward and ask him to form an alliance with Ming Dynasty."
Suzuki Shigehide tried his best to change Daming's attitude and continued:
"Not only that, we can also lease Nankai Road to Ming Dynasty."
"In addition to the West Sea Road, we are willing to lease these two roads to Ming Dynasty as a reward for our alliance."
"If your Excellency agrees, we can even lease Xikkaido and Nankaido to Ming Dynasty now, without waiting for us to completely annihilate Emperor Daigo."
It seems that Suzuki Shigehide also realized his mistake last time.
After staying in the post house for such a long time, he had already put away his petty thoughts.
Now the Ming Dynasty directly expressed its intention to form an alliance with the Southern Dynasties, which made Suzuki Shigehide panic and tell Li Jin all his bottom lines.
When Li Jin heard this, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly.
Saikkaido is Kyushu Island, and Nankaido is Shikoku Island, across the sea from the Gyeonggi area of Wajima Island.
If the Ming Dynasty occupies these two roads, the Gyeonggi region of Japan Island will be right under its nose.
This kind of temptation had to make Li Jin greedy.
The expression on Li Jin's face suddenly became embarrassed, which made Suzuki Shigehide seem to see hope.
Kneeling on the ground with a plop, he begged Li Jin:
"Please, sir, write another memorial to Emperor Ming to express our sincerity."
The expression on Li Jin's face changed for a while, and finally he said:
"Okay, but there are a few things you have to do first, otherwise even I can't do anything."
