At the Gaoshan Palace, Chen Jin and Wang Menghu led hundreds of people to block the gate of the palace.
Most of these hundred people were disciples of the Thief Sect, and some were elite Marines who came ashore with them.
But in the eyes of thousands or even tens of thousands of Ryukyu defenders, it is just a piece of cake and will be taken down sooner or later.
And as Haruko Tanaka said, this group of people don't regard the senior officials inside as human beings at all.
"My lord, please withdraw first!"
Chen Jin pondered.
Qin Yun smiled and shook his head: "Since I am here, I don't have to worry about not being able to leave."
"Wait!"
Seeing this scene, Qin Shan hurriedly said: "Seventh brother, brothers, how can we have an overnight feud? This woman and I are really just having fun, I did not massacre the Chaozhou people, you really have to believe me!"
Qin Yun: "Stop his mouth too, he's so noisy!"
Li Daiyu stepped forward and stuffed Qin Shan with fast shoe cushions.
Qin Yun glanced at the nearly 100 senior executives and said casually.
"If you don't want so many prisoners, take them out and ask them to retreat. Kill one person every time you burn an incense stick until they retreat."
"promise!"
"No, don't kill me. Are you a devil? If we have any grudge against you, we can pay the ransom."
Qin Yun sneered: "Ransom, do you think I am a bandit?"
"Besides, if I kill you all, won't the ransom still be mine?"
"As for what grudges are? You have to ask the people of Ryukyu who have been oppressed by you, and the people of Daxia along the southeast coast who have been plundered by you for decades."
"Do you think that Daxia has forgotten this hatred?"
"Sooner or later the Bone Temple in Chaozhou City will be erected on the Fusang Islands. The blood debt can only be repaid with blood!"
"Come here, chop him down!"
Chen Jin stepped forward and chopped off his head with a knife.
The rest of the people were trembling, and the spirit of bushido obviously did not appear in this group of masters who were just waiting to die.
Qin Yun's vigorous and resolute actions made people feel frightened.
Especially Qin Shan, he felt that his life was in danger. But Qin Yun did not kill him. He said that if he wanted to take him to the capital, he must take him to the capital.
At the same time, outside the palace.
Three-Eyed Tiger and Jiu Xing gathered together. They had just received the news that Qin Yun was in the palace.
The two of them hated Qin Yun deeply, so naturally they would not miss such a good opportunity.
But the person in charge was Koizumi Kenji, and the two outsiders did not dare to overstep the mark.
"Sir, do you want to attack by force?"
Koizumi Kenji smiled: "Blocking all the roads down the mountain, these people are just trapped beasts."
"yes!"
Zhu Jiuxing bowed forward and said, "Sir, Qin Yun is full of tricks. You must be careful of his deception."
Koizumi Kenji looked at Zhu Jiuxing: "You are the craftsman who built the artillery!"
"It's a villain."
"Here, kidnap him and send him back to Xiaoyingzhou."
"ah?"
Zhu Jiuxing was confused, what's going on?
But it was obvious that no one was redressing his injustice. It was true that Kenji Koizumi was from the Tokugawa Shogunate, but there were also eldest son and second son in the Mu family.
While he belongs to the Second Young Master, Tanaka Haruko belongs to the First Young Master.
Of course, the eldest son also sent people here, but the old guy Wudou happened to go to Qiongzhou. Now that Tanaka Haruko was captured, he naturally had the final say in Ryukyu.
If we don’t rob people now, when will we wait?
The three-eyed tiger on the side wanted to speak, but when he saw this look, he wisely closed his mouth.
In the palace, Wang Menghu killed one person every other stick of incense according to Qin Yun's request.
But Kenji Koizumi didn't care at all. Even from afternoon to sunset, Kenji Koizumi didn't even blink.
Until a civil servant arrived.
"Eldest brother, Miss Qingzi, after all, in the name of the Ninth Princess, if she refuses to save her, it will be difficult for the royal family to explain. Why not, let me go and negotiate with Qin Yun."
The person who spoke was none other than Fuso Foreign Minister, Koizumi Iichi. It was he who proposed to Emperor Xia that Ryukyu be returned to Daxia as a dowry.
Of course, after all, this is only in name. Daxia has neither the strength nor the conditions to achieve effective rule.
Koizumi Kenji frowned slightly: "Go ahead and save that woman's life as much as possible. After all, she is the ultimate furnace that I carefully built."
"Brother, don't worry, I'll come as soon as I go!"
Then Koizumi raised his hands above his head and spoke in standard Chinese Mandarin.
"Don't do anything. I am Koizumi Ichi, the Foreign Minister of Fuso. On behalf of Fuso, I want to see your prince!"
Not long after, a voice came from inside.
"Let him in!"
…
In the hall, Xiaoquanjing bowed his hands.
"Meet His Highness Prince Liang!"
Qin Yun sneered: "What are you doing here?"
Koizumi Iichi showed no timidity at all.
"Your Majesty, I came here alone. I admire you, but please don't forget, Your Majesty, this is Ryukyu Island. There is a city garrison under the palace. There are only eight thousand warriors on the island, if not ten thousand."
"Your Majesty is a rich man, why should he lose it here? Besides, your country has reached an agreement with our own country to jointly resist the Northern Qi Dynasty."
"Your Majesty is the prince of Daxia, is it possible that he wants to disobey the orders of the Daxia court?"
Qin Yun smiled and said, "I can't bear your hat."
Koizumi said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone: "Then please let the King of Ryukyu and the Princess go. We will pretend that this did not happen, and we are willing to compensate the King for ten million taels of silver as compensation for the attack on Qiongzhou that day."
"And we promise that we will never invade Qiongzhou waters in the future."
Qin Yun chuckled softly: "Oh, it means that if you don't invade the Qiongzhou waters, you still want to give me face?"
"Qiongzhou is Daxia's Qiongzhou, and this will never change. Ryukyu belongs to the Ryukyu people, and it has also been my homeland in the Central Plains since ancient times. Fuso has occupied it for decades without any reason and oppressed the people of Ryukyu. What will happen to this account?" Calculate?"
Koizumi smiled and said: "The Fuso shogunate, the Tokugawa family alone, has a million soldiers, nearly a thousand ships, and more than double digits of great masters."
"Since the founding of the dynasty, your country has never effectively ruled Ryukyu. Ryukyu belongs to Fuso. That is Ryukyu's choice."
Qin Yun pulled out the long knife with a "crack" sound and put it on Koizumi Jingyi's neck.
"Then I will give you a choice now. Give me your clothes. Do you want to give it to me or not?"
Koizumi's expression darkened.
Qin Yun: "In the future, my navy will not be strong and Fusang will take advantage of you. Today, you have hundreds of thousands of navy and thousands of ships. But I only want to ask, can you defeat our Qiongzhou navy?"
"Boom~~"
As soon as he finished speaking, a loud noise came from the coast.
At this time, there was a sound outside the hall.
"Lord Koizumi, no luck, Ryukyu is surrounded!"
Koizumi's eyes narrowed: "Impossible, you only have 30,000 troops? How can you surround Ryukyu Island?"
Qin Yun chuckled: "Who told you that I only have 30,000 people?"
At the same time, in the waters near Ryukyu.
Yue Qing personally led the army to break through the waves. She stood up to all the opinions and mobilized more than half of the country's troops at the cost of abandoning the defense line on the north shore.
Its purpose is to cooperate with Qin Yun to capture Ryukyu. In Qin Yun's words, if Ryukyu is not captured, Yue will be attacked from both sides.
Moreover, capturing Ryukyu echoes Qiongzhou. Even if the entire territory of Yue is occupied, there is still a chance to counterattack.
Yue Qing knew that he had no choice but to believe in Qin Yun.
"Your Highness, do you want to land on the island?"
Yue Qing muttered: "Act as planned!"
"promise!"
…
In the Alpine Palace, Qin Yun looked at Koizumi Jingyi with a smile.
"Now, I will give you another choice. Bring the people outside to surrender. I will give you a way to survive!"
Koizumi Ichi smiled bitterly: "My lord, do you know that if you do this, you will forever lose the opportunity to become friends with the Tokugawa family. You must know that Qin Zheng, the man who went to the capital, is eyeing you."
Qin Yun: "You don't need to sow discord. I will get what I want. If you can't make the decision, then go back and ask the head of the Tokugawa family."
"Don't think that I don't know that the reason why you are willing to return Ryukyu to Daxia in the form of dowry is because the Hattori family and the Tokugawa family are at war."
"I don't mind providing the Hattori family with some new artillery."
Koizumi was shocked: "You...how do you know?"
Qin Yun remembered the conversation he had with Zhou Meiniang on the bed the night before leaving Qiongzhou.
The Zhou family has always had spies infiltrating Fuso. By coincidence, the spy who helped her escape from the capital of Wu Kingdom belonged to the Hattori family.
The Hattori family's killing of two Grandmaster-level experts in the Casting God Mountain had become a trigger. Of course, the most important thing was the terrifying expansion speed of the Tokugawa family.
In addition, the appearance of artillery made the Hattori family feel the pressure of genocide.
Although they are not good things, Qin Yun currently does not have the ability to start a war with the entire Fuso and can only let them bite each other. Of course, he does not have the time or effort to contact the Hattori family.
But the person in front of me doesn't know.
Qin Yun asked forcefully: "Mr. Koizumi, how are you thinking about it?"
Koizumi Iichi pondered: "What conditions?"
Qin Yun: "First, Ryukyu is assigned to me, not to the imperial court."
"Second, you are not allowed to interfere in the war between Yue and Wu."
"Third, pay compensation 100 million taels of silver."
Koizumi Iichi: "Absolutely impossible. Our Tokugawa family would rather fight to the death!"
Qin Yun looked indifferent and spread his hands: "Then let's fight. By the way, the fleet you sent to steal my house in Qiongzhou should have been surrounded by now."
"If I remember correctly, that is 30% of the Tokugawa family's naval strength. Do we really want to lose it all here?"
"Come, let me introduce you, this is Hattori Daiyu, the envoy of the Hattori family!"
Qin Yun winked at Daiyu and said in Fusang dialect.
"Say hello to Mr. Koizumi!"
Li Daiyu stepped forward with a confused look on her face and said in pure Fusang dialect: "I have met Mr. Koizumi!"
"From the Hattori family?"
Qin Yun added: "This is still false. That is a grand master, and he is a grand master who used your Japanese methods to break through. No matter how much I lie to you, it is impossible to concoct a grand master for this, right?"
As soon as this statement came out, Koizumi believed it a little more.
Tanaka Haruko on the side yelled "Uh-huh", trying to attract Koizumi's attention, but Qin Yun dodged and knocked him unconscious with a palm.
"What did she want to say?"
Qin Yun responded with a smile: "This is not important. What is important is how Mr. Koizumi chooses. My patience is limited, only half a day."
"In half a day, I can take Ryukyu by force. As you know, I still have to deal with the brother in the capital, and I don't want to lose too much strength."
Koizumi pondered and said: "I understand, half a day is too short, please give me one day!"
"Okay, I will wait for you for one day."
Not long after, Koizumi Ichi walked out of the palace with a gloomy face.
Koizumi Kenji asked: "How is it?"
Koizumi yelled: "No wonder he came to the island silently, and the hateful Hattori family colluded with him."
"A young female divine warrior was also sent. There are at least three divine warriors inside at this time!"
Koizumi Kenji paused: "What do you mean?"
"He asked to negotiate with the head of the family. Brother, I will go back to the head of the house first. You must not take action during this period. This matter is related to the life and death of the Tokugawa Shogunate."
"You must not do anything, remember?"
"What about my furnace?"
"It is more important to save the Tokugawa family!"
