The Ming army almost suffered a defeat and retreated to the port on the shore with lingering fears. Although they don't know how Todo Takatora disappeared, the huge waves before made many people feel sad. However, after coming back to their senses, someone suggested question.

The King of Joseon sent an inquiry through the messenger talisman. After briefly learning the cause and effect of the incident, he immediately smiled, but the next moment he began to reprimand Yi Sun-shin, and in his words, he even blamed the generals of the Ming army.

"What kind of giant waves are throwing the sky? One of you said that the other party has a magical weapon that can boost ocean currents, and the next you said that the sea is calm and cloudless. How can this be true?"

"You are all brave generals, holding the position of gods in the sky, as majestic as the stars descending to the earth, but you can't see through the spell cast by a Japanese pirate? I understand it all, I already understand it completely, and I can see it all."

"This is obviously a trick. You thought you saw huge waves and the turbulent sea. In fact, there was no movement in the sea. The Japanese general just used a little trick to blind your eyes. You were all fooled, so that He retreated in embarrassment and lost a great opportunity to pursue him!"

When the King of Korea said this, he had a disappointed look on his face, and through the messenger talisman, although the generals in Sizhou City could not see his face, they could guess his face at this time from his tone. Suddenly someone was furious:

Veteran general Deng Zilong was the first to jump out and curse:

"You, the vassal king, know something! That big wave killed thousands of soldiers in our army, the tornado sucked the water into the sky, the wind roared and the waves rolled up. Do you want to say that these people were all under the spell of illusion, and then threw themselves into the sea to commit suicide? Of!"

"Of course it is!"

The North Korean king's tone was full of astonishment, as if he was asking "How could you ask such a stupid question?" This tone made Deng Zilong furious, and Yi Sun-shin's face was not good-looking, and the surrounding generals Amid his glaring glare, he boldly responded to the King of Korea:

"Your Highness, I think that the Japanese pirates may not have used any deception method, and the ships were also damaged. If it was a deception method, there were no big ships attacking each other, and there were no waves. How can we explain the damage to this ship?" ?”

The King of Korea immediately said: "Thankfully you are still the commander-in-chief of the navy. I released you from prison and forgiven your crimes. You should be grateful to me. Now you dare to talk back and confront your king. It's simply Extremely rude!"

Yi Sun-shin was speechless for a while.

North Korea values ​​civility and despises military power, and so does the king. Military generals can only obey orders and act independently. They are not allowed to ask questions or act independently, otherwise they will be in conflict with the adults. Therefore, the King of Joseon believed that the great power he had given Yi Sun-shin was enough to make the general burst into tears of gratitude. At this time, he dared to question himself as a monarch, but he did not even look at his identity, only how many pounds he weighed!

"Forget it! I don't care about you, a warrior! The damage to this ship was naturally caused by the opponent's warship. Do you need to think too much about it? You have fallen into an illusion. The Japanese pirates' warships are firing weapons. Do you think those firearms are there? It was the waves, and they hurriedly avoided, and these firearms damaged the ship. Now it seems that most of the more than a thousand soldiers who died were probably killed by firearms."

"But you all still have great contributions. I would like to thank you all for helping me restore my country."

"The Seven Years War is finally over. I still have many important things to do... Everyone, please rest for a while and then return home to resume your duties. After all, North Korea has suffered serious damage and there is really no extra rations to feed you!"

The King of Korea verbally "explained" to everyone, and even said something that was somewhat reasonable. Even Deng Zilong began to doubt his life due to what he said. The King of Korea then thanked everyone, but there was no hint of sincerity in his words. how many.

After the light on the messenger talisman dissipated, a general became furious and smashed the table in front of him with one palm!

"What does it mean to have no extra rations! This vassal king is really unpleasant! During the seven years of war, when did North Korea provide even a little bit of food! The food and grass we are waiting for are all transported here from the country, and we have never received support from here!"

"Now that the war is over, he comes out and says this, as if I will damage his country's destiny by waiting for one more day in North Korea! There is such a shameless monarch in the world!"

The generals of the Ming army were furious, and Yi Sun-shin, the only Korean general, could only keep silent. Deng Zilong approached him at this time and wanted to let him serve in the Ming Dynasty. He persuaded him and made the Korean king slap his head because of Japan's previous counterintuitive tactics. , which led to him being imprisoned and waiting to die.

However, the North Korean general quickly stopped him and kept evading:

"Old General Deng's intention is understood by the general, but loyal ministers will not serve the two masters. I am afraid that the general's meager skills will not be able to get into the eyes of the superior country."

The general meaning is also very clear, that is, the king of Korea is a rip-off, the civil servants are all good at talking, and the generals have almost no people who can be used. After the seven years of war, those who still have some ability All the generals are dead. If you go to the Ming Dynasty and abandon your homeland at this time, then the next time the Japanese pirates come, you may never see your homeland again.

As for whether loyal ministers are loyal or not, there is no need to be loyal to the king, but they must be loyal to the people of this land.

"Being born in this country, no matter how incompetent he is, he cannot be abandoned, just like old and weak parents and strong children. Can a child abandon his parents and leave alone and let them fend for themselves?"

Li Sunchen resisted for a while, and Deng Zilong stopped trying to persuade him. The atmosphere between the two sides became extremely harmonious, and the Ming army did not want to stay here any longer. But was the war really over?

"The Japanese pirates did not declare defeat, can this battle be considered a victory?"

No one can say for sure. If Japan withdraws its troops now and makes a comeback after a while, what will happen? The words spoken by Todo Takatora lingered in the hearts of some generals, and those vicious words that millions of people would be slaughtered next time they came here were chilling to the heart.

During the Seven Years' War, not only was North Korea reduced to a puddle of mud, but the Ming Dynasty also lost a lot of energy. After all, there were no supplies in North Korea, and a large amount of supplies had to be transported from the mainland. This was an extremely arduous task, even if both land and water were advanced. , the consumption is equally astonishing, not to mention that there is not much water transportation supply. After all, the Ming Dynasty does not have its own official merchant ship team, and the sea is still closed.

"No need to wait."

A sudden sound came into the big tent, and a human head rolled in. The generals were startled. When they saw the visitor dressed in black, the extremely vigilant atmosphere suddenly relaxed!

"Shangxian! I haven't seen you for many days! Where have you been? You can surprise us!"

When Chen Lin, Ma Gui and other officials saw Ji Xiang, they sheathed their swords and cupped their fists.

"This is the head of Todo Takatora, please confirm it."

"As for the other people, I have already dealt with them."

Ji Xiang asked them to see the head clearly and verify his identity.

Everyone woke up from a dream, when someone said: "It is indeed the North Korean king who is talking nonsense. From this point of view, it is not a cover-up, but it really caused such a big wave!"

"It was just that I, the Immortal of the Ming Dynasty, destroyed me!"

Ji Xiang asked strangely: "King of North Korea?"

Chen Lin explained on the side and told Ji Xiang what the King of Joseon had just said. Ji Xiang just smiled: "The monarch abandoned his country and fled to other places. Now that the war is about to end, facing the report from his subordinates, But I took it for granted and thought that after seeing so many artifacts in Japan, when they escaped, I thought it was a blinding spell..."

"It's not okay to rely on fantasy to fight wars and guide the country. But he is a mortal body, so there is no need to care about what he says."

Although blinding methods are useful, but they can deceive a group of gods and generals... If the opponent has this level of blinding methods, then why should they think about escaping instead of directly killing them?

It's not the Japanese way to have this kind of ultimate move that is not used on the battlefield but used on escape. After fighting with someone for seven years, you still don't know what the other person's temper is like. These tough guys can't wait to use it during the battle. Put your underwear on your head and hit you in a blind spot to catch you off guard. How can a person like this use such a big move just to run away?

However, Japan’s withdrawal...

"With the recovery of Sizhou, North Korea's national destiny has become obvious."

Ji Xiang sensed that in Sizhou City, North Korea's national destiny had appeared and was growing rapidly. It was true that the land was in ruins and awaiting development, but with less destruction, as long as repairs started, everything would slowly get better.

As for why Japan stopped fighting...

"By the way, Shangxian, do you know why the Japanese pirates suddenly withdrew their troops in a hurry?"

When Chen Lin asked a question, he couldn't help but ask again: "Did Toyotomi Hideyoshi die suddenly?"

Ji Xiang stared at Chen Lin and shook his head: "It would be great if you opened your mouth."

"But it is a pity that the reason why Japan withdrew its troops was that they had no more troops. As for Toyotomi Hideyoshi, I failed to kill him, he is still alive and well."

"What? What did you say?"

Chen Lin was startled: "You said you didn't kill him? What do you mean? Could it be that you went to Japan?"

Ji Xiang nodded to confirm, which shocked Chen Lin. Not only him, but other generals also looked surprised!

"How did the seniors get in? It is said that the waters around Japan are surrounded by evil winds, and ordinary people cannot pass through. Qian Yuan's expedition to Japan was destroyed by this evil wind..."

This time, not only the generals, but also the other mages in the tent also widened their eyes.

The old swordsman Wang asked Ji Xiang. After all, the evil wind around Japan has existed for a long time, but Ji Xiang was a little confused: "Wind? I didn't find any wind. I just set up the Tianmen and rushed in."

Old Sword Immortal Wang: "Ah this...!"

Well, everyone wants to break through from the outside, so no wonder you always have the ability to open the heavenly gate and rush in!

It’s just that the speed is too fast!

"Although there is no iron-clad wall within Japan, there are people who are difficult for us to deal with, and our country does not have any very strong naval forces. Therefore, I believe that you will not do it and do not have the ability to follow the example of the previous dynasty in the expedition. .”

Ji Xiang glanced at the other generals. What he said was true, so no one refuted it. There were indeed not many naval forces in the Ming Dynasty, especially in the past few decades, when they were in a state of occasional increase and regular decrease. If it weren't for this seven-year war, it wouldn't be possible to mobilize so many naval forces and build so many more warships one after another.

"A person who is difficult to deal with? If he is stronger than the fake immortal... is there a real immortal?"

"They are similar to true immortals, but they cannot leave Japan. They are false immortals. Moreover, true immortals will be suppressed when they enter Japanese territory, and their resilience is not as good as false immortals. They claim that their country is the Kingdom of God, and they want to shape human myths. .”

"It sounds... more like I want to carve out a 'Rishan River' myself."

Ji Xiang's tone was very soft, but in the ears of several mages, it was as shocking as the sound of thunder exploding.

"How is it possible to do such a thing!"

Immediately, a mage made an incredulous voice, opening up the world and creating a kingdom of gods. The old swordsman Wang pondered for a moment and asked Ji Xiang again: "So, this immortal is indeed...Xu Fu."

"Who else is there besides this ancient man? He's so great inside. For two thousand years, everything produced in the country has been dedicated to him."

Ji Xiang laughed: "This is the best fake immortal in the world. I was even tied with him. Because I was defeated, I came out. I only destroyed a few of his strongholds and destroyed Osaka and Izumo." The two countries burned Honnoji Temple and Heian Shrine, but did not make any bigger move."

"Varied....???!"

These words were like thunder on the ground, everyone looked shocked!

Is this called no big movement?

This movement is too big!

"The Immortal? Destroyed Osaka Castle?! That's where Toyotomi Hideyoshi lived...!"

"Hideyoshi is not important."

Ji Xiang interrupted the exclamations of the generals and mages, and told them seriously: "Xu Fu is the most important."

"If the false immortals don't exist, it would be easy to destroy their country and destroy their species!"

"but!"

"It's the same thing in reverse! If one day, Xu Fu can come out of Japan... If there are no immortals in Ming Dynasty..."

Ji Xiang thought of some of the illusions he saw in the future vision. In one scene, several real immortals appeared around Xu Fu, and he himself was able to leave Japan and appear on the land of Middle-earth.

This is a bad future. It may not happen, but it may not happen either. In short, if the Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit Collection is not retrieved, there is a possibility that this fantasy will come true.

"So, conquering Japan is a long-term plan that can be planned in the future. Rather than being passively beaten, it is better to take the initiative."

"When we return to China, Daming needs to open the sea."

Ji Xiang warned these generals. Of course, there was no big use in telling them. He just informed them to let them understand that the war was not over. On the contrary, a war that would destroy the country could break out at any time!

"There are not many people in Japan today, but they have monsters. When the monsters accumulate to a certain level, they will come back."

"and...."

Although Ji Xiang came back from Japan, there was one thing that he was very concerned about. That was the huge movement of destroying Izumo, but Xu Fu didn't even say anything.

It was as if he didn't care at all.

"Japan actually made money in this battle."

"It's just that what you earn is not mundane things, but the destiny of the country that is permanently lost."
