Across the river?
To whom? Daxing?
Descartes almost squirted a mouthful of warm tea onto Taro Kishi's face, telling him not to start having sweet dreams as soon as he turned black.
There are not many small people in the Japanese country, and Beidi is a powerful country. However, Beidi cannot guarantee that it will be able to annex the entire Daxing within a hundred years. Slow nibble.
But for places like the hinterland of the Central Plains of Daxing and Jiangnan, unless we wait until Daxing is overthrown and the right time, place, and people are in place to attack, once a full-scale resistance from Daxing is triggered, we may not know who will be destroyed.
The Japanese people are small and bold, and they have even thought about dividing them across the river.
"Ahem..."
Descartes swallowed the sip of tea in his mouth, smiled and gave a thumbs up.
"Mr. Kishizumi's ambition is admirable. It's okay to separate across the river, but how many troops are you prepared to send?"
Taro Kishizaki held out a finger mysteriously.
Descartes was instantly refreshed.
"A million people?"
"..."
Taro Kishizumi thought to himself: Even if all our people are soldiers, the entire barren Japanese country does not have a million people in total!
If the Japanese country could have so many troops, would it still be necessary to join forces with the Beidi countries?
"One hundred thousand elite soldiers and good generals will surely defeat the Daxing army in the coastal areas!"
Taro Kishizaki said it categorically.
But Descartes wanted to serve tea to the guests.
One hundred thousand elite soldiers and generals?
I'm afraid it's a shrimp soldier and a crab general!
And the approved amount is 100,000, the specific number is not yet known.
With just one mouthful, you want to carve up the benefits that Beidi has finally obtained?
"I have some discomfort in my throat..."
After Descartes made a few violent fake coughs, he opened his mouth wide but seemed unable to make any sound, which made Taro Kishizumi stunned for a moment.
I don’t know what he said that was wrong, which made Descartes not hesitate to use such clumsy means to deceive himself.
But he was still fighting for Japan.
"Descartes-san, I know that our Japanese country is small and insignificant, but we will definitely play a key role in your attack on Daxing..."
"Ahem!"
Descartes felt that the Japanese country was not only a humble country, but also had a brain that could not bend. It could be said to be completely blank, equivalent to having no brain.
Didn't he just say that he had no intention of attacking Daxing?
The Japanese government deliberately smeared them to attract Daxing's attention, right?
"Amao, go and ask the doctor to come...my throat..."
Descartes pinched his neck with many hands, looking very painful, and retched several times at Taro Kishizumi.
This action scared Taro Kishizaki to the point where he jumped up.
"Descartes-san, are you really sick?"
"..."
Can't you see clearly?
Descarnato did not speak, but nodded with difficulty.
"Did Daxing poison the tea?"
"..."
Even at this time, I still don’t forget to stir up dissension, but it’s really yours!
Descarnato shook his head, then pointed to the dried meat on the bedside table, indicating that he had eaten too much dried meat and got angry.
Upon seeing this, Taro Kishizumi wanted to say something more, but he was worried that when the doctor from Daxing came, he would find him reporting to the Emperor of Daxing here, and the century-old plan of the Japanese country would be ruined. He could only say unwillingly: "Then I will do it some other time." Come again."
Descarnato nodded quickly and gestured to the door, signaling to get out of here.
Until Taro Kishizumi walked out of the house and left the yard with one step and three turns, making sure that he would not come back with a kill.
Amao walked in from the door and asked in confusion: "Envoy, even if the Japanese country doesn't contribute much, you can pretend to agree to cooperate with them first. Anyway, they only have 100,000 soldiers. After they are used up in the battle, you can seize them." Isn’t the result of the battle good?”
"Amao, you are still young and have never been in contact with many Japanese people. You don't understand how insidious these Japanese people are. I think the impression of the Beidi people in Daxing's eyes is barbaric, but the impression of the Japanese in my eyes is no longer the same. To sum it up in terms of barbarism, I call them pigs and dogs, which I feel is an insult to pigs and dogs. Their food, clothing, and even methods of doing things sometimes cannot be considered in terms of humans or animals. If we cooperate with them, they will only bring us benefits. Come endless trouble.”
It’s okay to fight.
So can death.
But the Beidi people have their own belief in gods and disdain to associate with the Japanese.
Amao nodded as if he understood, but he was very moved when he thought of the idea of crossing the river that the Japanese had just proposed.
"Emissary, what if he goes to other envoys to brag and they tell the king?"
"That's a problem. I'll write a letter to the king to let him know that the Japanese have no ability to fulfill their promise. They just want to take the opportunity to carve up our interests. Even if the king is young, he will not agree."
Descartes did not regret letting Taro Kishizumi come in to talk just now.
But I regretted letting Taro Kishizaki talk too much, which made me feel a little nauseous now.
The Jiangnan coast is the lifeblood of Daxing, and it is also the paradise they yearn for. They hope not to suffer the scourge of the Japanese.
Descartes thought for a moment, put down a pen on paper and wrote an argument to persuade the king. His eyes were no longer blinded by the fictitious interests in front of him, and he became a knife in the hands of the Japanese to cut the Daxing people, allowing the Japanese fishermen to benefit.
As for the one hundred thousand elite soldiers and generals that Taro Kishizaki mentioned, he had no intention of revealing it to the people of Daxing.
If Taro Kishi can't find a suitable person to help and comes back to him, he can have a frank and open talk to truly benefit the Beidi people. He is not opposed to bringing the Japanese country with him to take a bite of Daxing's flesh and blood.
Beidi only wanted Daxing's lifeblood, but he didn't say he wanted Daxing's human life.
…
Zhangjiazhuang.
In order to better understand what kind of rumors the people in the Western Regions were spreading, Ning Wuyan, a gossip, sent someone to the city to inquire about it.
Unexpectedly, when the moon was at its peak, the spies had not returned yet, so Jiang Yan sent someone to explain the storyteller's escape.
"Ning Zhaomo has taken the government officials to search for him. He suspects that the storyteller is Xi Zuo. Now the whole city is strictly checking people from the Western Regions, but there is no whereabouts yet."
After the officer finished speaking, he paused and suddenly added.
"Speaking of which, not only have people from the Western Regions increased in number in the city recently, there have also been a lot of people from the East, especially Japanese people. You wouldn't know if you didn't check. After checking for less than half a day, you found that there are nearly a hundred people in the city."
so much?
You must know that although Jinling is not far from the sea, the Japanese people rarely go inland because of being maimed many years ago. They only make waves along the coast.
When Ning Wuyang heard what the government officials said, he always felt that the Japanese people had the intention of taking advantage of the chaos to cause trouble.
It's not that he robs people with evil, but that in his impression, Japanese people will not do any good things.
"Please give Mr. Jiang a message and ask him to work with other coastal states and counties to check the number of Japanese people."
"Mr. Ning is worried that the Japanese want to fight?"
The yamen servant was shocked.
He had never experienced the war waged by the Japanese, but he had inherited the family position, and his ancestors had participated in the anti-Japanese war along the coast, so he subconsciously felt that there were too many Japanese coming to Jinling, and something was wrong, so he said so He told Mr. Ning.
When he heard Mr. Ning's words, he rushed to the government office without stopping.
Unexpectedly, just as the yamen led the horse out of Zhangjiazhuang, a "moo" sound suddenly came from the ground, followed immediately by the ground shaking violently underfoot!
The cow barks!
The ground is shaking!
"No, the ground is shaking! Everyone, run away!"
Ning Wuyan, who had just sent people to the entrance of the hospital, was shaken by the earthquake and almost fell to the ground.
And when he saw the ground churning, coming from east to west, and the noise of ground cattle seemed to be muffled, an idea flashed through his mind involuntarily.
Could this be where the earthquake originated?
