That's right!
It doesn't matter who lives on Tsushima Island. What is important is that Ming Dynasty wants North Korea to recognize and recognize it. That is Ming Dynasty's Tsushima Island.
With this as a basis, in the future, the Ming Dynasty Navy will no longer need to negotiate with North Korea to open the waterway through Jeju Island to Tsushima Island, but will directly take the sea route to Tsushima Island. Wherever I go, I will take this seaway. It's reasonable and there's no need to discuss it with anyone.
After the Ming Dynasty's army withdrew, the Japanese sergeants would make a comeback and reoccupy Tsushima Island, but what does it matter?
Zhu Yunwen knew the principle of saving people and losing land. Besides, it would be a good thing for Ming Dynasty to come back to harvest crops after the Japanese restored infrastructure and planted rice. Ming Dynasty could conquer Tsushima Island once. , then you can beat it for the second or third time.
Japan, Kyoto, Beishandi.
General Shiba Yi was worried, handed the document in his hand to Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, and said in a deep voice: "The Ming Dynasty has declared war on the shogunate."
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu put down the hand that was holding the beads, reached out to take the document, looked at it for a few times, then threw it aside, and said coldly: "The Ming Dynasty is so proud, the declaration of war is nothing more than the barking of a mad dog. We kicked him and returned Are you not allowed to call twice?"
General Shiba Yoshimitsu was far less optimistic than Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, and said seriously: "But the Ming Dynasty's naval fleet is indeed extremely powerful, and its scale is huge. Once they attack us, we are afraid of unforeseen disasters. I also ask the Minister of Taisheng to give an order, All coastal areas are on alert to be on guard against the Ming Navy."
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu stood up, his cassock swaying: "Don't be scared out of your wits by declaring war on the Ming Dynasty. Who do they think they are? You know, when they overran the Ming Dynasty, a hundred thousand troops and four thousand boats came to invade. What was the result? Kamikaze Protection, they can only despair in the depths of the sea! I think we are the country of the rising sun, we have God’s protection, why should we fear the Ming Dynasty Navy?”
Shiba Yijiang had a headache. Although kamikaze existed every year, it did not exist every day. The Yuan Dynasty is not very lucky. If you encounter the Ming Dynasty, you may not have the same luck. Moreover, over the years, the Ming Dynasty Navy has traveled back and forth between the north and the south, and traveled east and west. I have never heard that Zheng He fell into the sea...
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was naturally not a person who pinned his hopes on the divine wind, otherwise all his years of fighting would have been in vain. After scorning the Ming Dynasty, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu became serious: "You also know that we have many mountains and poor ground, and we often suffer from poverty. There is also famine. In previous years, we could still trade with the Ming Dynasty, North Korea, and Ryukyu in exchange for some supplies. But now, because of the Ming Dynasty's blockade, North Korea no longer trades with the shogunate, and there are fewer and fewer merchants in Ryukyu. The roots all come from the Ming Dynasty!"
General Si Boyi nodded, yes, Ming Dynasty is the root of all evil and the source of all evil.
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu walked into the sun, and his bald head looked smoother: "Now that the shogunate has unified the islands, all the daimyo have surrendered, the country's power is booming, and its strength has greatly increased. It's time for us to prepare to go north and annex North Korea. "
General Si Boyi's expression became even more ugly, and he reminded: "I'm afraid it will not be easy to annex North Korea. Li Fangyuan has a high prestige and has been reorganizing the army. If there is no sufficient preparation, it is not appropriate to rush to send troops. Especially now, our navy is very Disaster……"
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu frowned when he heard the word "Navy", put aside the issue of Ming Dynasty and North Korea, and asked instead: "Where is Chen Zuyi?"
General Si Boyi shook his head: "It's not clear that Hattori Shenmu is the leader. It is said that he was in Yangjiang Yushang. Although more than a dozen ships were sent out, no trace of Chen Zuyi has been found yet."
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu had a murderous look on his Buddha-like face: "Hattori Shenmu is dead, why is Chen Zuyi still alive? A thousand sergeants, including a hundred samurai, were lost in a small port of the Ming Dynasty?"
General Sibo also couldn't figure it out. It stands to reason that a person like Shenmu of the Department of Persuasion can be regarded as experienced in many battles and has high martial arts skills. He wouldn't be ruined in a mere small port, right? However, you can't say it too harshly. Yoshihiro Ouchi was also hanging in the port...
But what is incredible is that none of the people sent by Ashikaga Yoshimitsu came back. The limited information was brought to Kyoto by businessmen. It is said that all the prisoners captured by the Ming Dynasty were Japanese. This is a bit humiliating. At least you can capture a few. Pirates, what do you mean by only catching Japanese people? Isn’t this the whole world shouting that Japanese people are weak and not as good as pirates?
It must be fake news, it must be!
The sergeants of the shogunate will not serve as prisoners. In desperate situations, they will choose to commit seppuku themselves and choose to break the jade to serve the country!
"No matter what, we must find Chen Zuyi. In addition, we must search for craftsmen from various places and build sea ships! What I want is not to directly attack the Ming Dynasty across the East China Sea, but to use Tsushima Island as a springboard to rush to Busan, a hundred miles away!" "
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was furious.
Just when Sibo Yi was about to agree to leave, Guan Bai Nijo Liangji hurried over: "Taizheng, news just came from Sakai Port that Chen Zuyi has sent someone."
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu stared at Nijo Ryuki: "Can you tell me clearly, is it Chen Zuyi who is here, or is he sending someone here?"
Nijo Liangji quickly replied: "Chen Zuyi did not come in person, but sent a pirate named Chen Erbao."
"Chen Erbao?"
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was confused.
Nijo Ryuki was also very confused. Shiba Yishou thought for a while and shook his head at Ashikaga Yoshimitsu who looked over: "The little leader Chen Zuyi left in Sakai Port, Satoko, is already one of ours. He provided the list of Chen Zuyi's leaders and There is no one named Chen Erbao, so he should be an insignificant figure."
"Let him come!"
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's voice was low.
"Chen Erbao" Pang Huan looked at the heavily guarded Sakai Port, his mouth full of bitterness. He just wanted to be a spy, work carefully, write documents beside Chen Zuyi, win over a few younger brothers, and when the opportunity is ripe, cooperate with the imperial court. , destroying the Chen Zuyi Pirates in one fell swoop.
But who would have thought that the Chen Zuyi Pirates are so poor that they don’t even have a few literate people. They are basically just rough guys who mess around on their own, and they end up becoming Chen Zuyi. A close confidant of Tang Dynasty was appointed as an "envoy" to the Japanese country. If Tang Bo and others knew about this, they would be shocked.
It is said that pirates are smart, cunning, and lick blood with their swords. Why did the pirates I saw here be completely different? They were cunning and insidious, but their brains were somewhat difficult to use. I was a newcomer, and Chen Zuyi dared to do so. He reused it and handed the most important information to himself. This was too bold...
However, the danger is still here!
Pang Huan's face became serious. The danger now does not come from Chen Zuyi, but from Ashikaga Yoshimitsu! According to Chen Zuyi, this is an old fox who can eat people.
Obviously, Chen Zuyi didn't plan to come because he was afraid of being eaten. Pang Huan firmly believed this.
"The second treasure is the head of the family, that is Liu Zi."
Yin Zhiguo, who was behind him, raised his finger and pointed, reporting to Chen Erbao.
Chen Erbao looked over and saw two people walking not far away. One was dressed as a Japanese and seemed to have a lot of status, and the other was dressed as a pirate. Well, in tatters. You could tell by the careless steps he walked out that this was This guy is not only weak, but also crazy...
"Are you Chen Erbao?"
When Saturday came closer, he sniffed and looked up and down.
Chen Erbao took a step forward, stretched out his hand and slapped him so hard that Liu Zi's eyes were filled with stars, and he took two steps back, covering his face and feeling at a loss.
Yin Zhiguo was also startled, and the Japanese beside Liu Zi were also a little shocked.
Chen Erbao looked at Liuzi coldly and said sternly: "Who do you think you are? You dare to call me by my name! But you haven't been around the master for a few months and you have forgotten the rules? You call me master Chen Erbao!"
Zhouzi secretly gritted his teeth and shouted with hatred: "Chen Erbao is the boss!"
Chen Erbao snorted, put his hands behind his back, and looked at the Japanese: "Are you Shiba Yishige?"
Si Boyi nodded and praised: "You have the courage, let's go!"
Chen Erbao ordered people to carry out two boxes from the ship, and then followed Shiba Yishong to Beishanti.
Along the way, Chen Erbao was calm and composed, chatting and laughing, which left a deep impression on Shiba Yoshitaka. After arriving at Kitayama Di, he entered the briefing first and informed Ashikaga Yoshimitsu of his observation: "Chen Erbao is an important leader of Chen Zuyi."
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu saw Chen Erbao and Yin Zhiguo, but said nothing with a cold face.
Chen Erbao was neither humble nor arrogant, as if he had returned to his own home, and said very naturally: "The King of Nanyang sent me here to fulfill the previous agreement with the Minister of Taizheng."
"Promise?"
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu had a gloomy face and looked at Chen Erbao with cold eyes: "Does he still remember the agreement? I think he has forgotten it! Come on, chop this person up for me!"
"yes!"
A group of warriors ran out from behind the screen and immediately surrounded Chen Erbao.
Yin Zhiguo was trembling with fear.
Chen Erbao's face remained unchanged, facing the blade in front of him, he raised his foot under Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's surprised gaze, took a step forward, his body almost hit the sword in front of him, and shouted: "It's easy to kill me, but I'm dead, I want to It will be difficult to get the King of Nanyang to fulfill his promise again! If the Minister of Taizheng does not want sea ships, he can give it a try."
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu stared. The person in front of him was not afraid of death. Such a person must not be a nobody.
"Back off!"
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu had no intention of talking to the minions. Since the leader in front of him had won his attention, let's just listen to what he said.
"Hattori Duanmu is dead!"
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu began to attack.
Chen Erbao nodded indifferently: "Oh, I know, he died for the Taizheng Minister and the shogunate. His death was worth it, in exchange for more than two hundred very experienced shipwrights."
Seeing that Chen Erbao didn't seem to care about Hattori Duanmu's death, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu couldn't help but become cold and stern: "Why are all the people in the shogunate dead and no one has come back!"
Chen Erbao's face became a little sad: "The Minister of Taizheng only knows that people from the shogunate have died, why don't you ask how many of our brothers have died?"
Nijo Ryuki sneered: "How many of you died, what does it have to do with the shogunate?"
Chen Erbao asked back: "Then how many of you died, what does it have to do with us? They were all for the same purpose, everyone died, who doesn't feel bad? You only saw the shogunate dying in the battle, why didn't you see the Nanyang King also suffered a loss? There are more than a thousand people, even the young master is almost dead, and the leader has lost more than half! Have you asked me a question? Before questioning, do you want to know the loss of the Nanyang King first?"
Yin Zhiguo's eyes were a little dizzy. Hattori Duanmu was killed by the Ming army, and the Nanyang King was damaged by the Fang Tianhua pirates. How could you put these two things together? Besides, he didn't lose more than a thousand. People...
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's face looked better. It turned out that not only his own people died, but many of the Nanyang King also died. That's good...
Chen Erbao observed Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's expression and secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his expression softened. Zhu Yunwen said that the Japanese grandchildren have one nature, that is, they bully the weak and fear the strong. The harder they are, the more they will listen to what you say; the softer they are, the more they will step on your head and look down on you.
Now look, the emperor is sincere and does not deceive me...
If your life is saved, let's talk about things. It's nothing more than asking for money and women. Not to mention, these two things from Japan are really good...
