In the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army.
Zhu Yi discussed with Yang Zheng for a long time.
Zhu Yi didn't know the geography and landforms of Jiuzhou Island, but Yang Zheng knew it.
He knew that the current boss of Kyushu Island was the Shimazu family, named Shimazu Tachihisa. This brother had exiled his father just two years ago, which caused a great chaos in Kyushu Island and caused more Japanese to go to sea to become Japanese pirates. stand up.
They claim to be the descendants of Qin Shihuang. Of course, this is all to put money in their own faces.
Since it is called Kyushu, it means that there are nine regions, namely Chikuzen, Chikugo, Bunzen, Bungo, Hizen, Higo, Hyuga, Satsuma, and Ohsumi.
Satsuma and Osumi are the most populous and powerful evil feudal lords, and they are directly under the Shimazu clan. The owners of other areas are also the retainers of this Shimazu, but no one is convinced by the other.
Of course, at this time, Huatian Locust, the nominal owner of Little Guizi Island, was not within the scope of Yang Zheng's consideration at all.
Kyushu Island was the first area where the Japanese country had contact with the Ming Dynasty.
"Hanshu" records: "There are dwarves in the Lelang Sea, divided into more than a hundred countries, and they offer sacrifices according to their age." BIquGe.biz
"Book of the Later Han Dynasty, Volume 85, Biography of Dongyi": "The Japanese lived in the sea in the southeast of Korea. The soil was suitable for rice, hemp, and sericulture. They knew that the weaving was silk cloth. Their men's clothes all had banners that were connected at the end. Women were sent Qu Zhen was clothed like a single quilt, with his hair tied over his head... Guangwu gave him a seal and ribbon."
This "Han Japanese Nu King Seal" is now in the hands of Shimazu Tachihisa.
Yang Zheng, who had been the deputy maritime envoy in the early years, often dealt with them. He even went to Satsuma once and met Shimazu Tachihisa's unlucky father Shimazu Tadakuni who was exiled.
Yang Zheng might be a little excited. When a civil servant introduced the situation on Kyushu Island to Zhu Yi, he actually made a joke: "I have been to Kyushu Island before, and the people there are fierce and fierce. I also saw their people there." The Japanese swords held by the soldiers are very similar to Tang swords, but they have also been improved. However, what impressed me most is their hobbies, which are no different from livestock. They like to do casual things in the wilderness, and The surname is based on the place where the trouble occurred, so the surname is Matsushita, which is the bad boy who did it under the pine tree, Watanabe, the "thing" that happened by the river, Inoue, what was at the mouth of the well... Isn't it strange? strangeness……"
Zhu Yi, who had been thinking about how many ships and people he wanted to mobilize, immediately became energetic after hearing Yang Zheng's words.
"Sure enough..."
"In the entire Ming Dynasty, I am the only one who knows about this matter."
After saying that, Yang Zheng burst out laughing, feeling extremely proud.
Zhu Yi also silently remembered it in his heart. He had been at sea for several years and knew how big the world was and how vast the ocean was. He had no doubts about what Yang Zheng said.
Zhu Yi and Yang Zheng's initial plan was to plan an attack first and train Korean naval soldiers on the southwestern coast of Korea who had a bloody feud with the Japanese pirates. However, the latter's training took a long time, and the first attack still had to be carried out. The Ming army came to do it.
In the end, 2,000 people were selected. They first conducted a reconnaissance near Kyushu Island, selected four locations, divided them into four fleets, and attacked in four directions at the same time. They behaved like Japanese pirates and robbed beautiful women and gold and silver. Take away, kill all the old, weak, women and children, burn all the houses and villages that cannot be taken away... let them pay with blood.
In fact, the final tune was finalized by Yang Zheng, a civil servant, who was more ruthless than Zhu Yi.
While the two were discussing, a ship flying the flag of the Ming Dynasty boarded a seaport in Ningbo.
Surrounded by several people, a middle-aged man wearing a Ming Dynasty official robe got off the ship.
When the man actually set foot on the ground, with tears in his eyes, he squatted down and touched the ground under his feet: "I finally came back. I didn't expect that I could come back to the Ming Dynasty alive..."
While the man was expressing his emotions, a small official guarding the harbor ran over with several strong men.
"Who asked you to dock? Why did you dock before you got the signal? If you hit a big ship and something happens, can you afford it?"
Before the clerk could reach him, angry sounds could be heard.
After hearing what the young official said, the man in official robes who crouched down stood up and collected his emotions.
"Ah, he is an adult. No wonder he dares to disobey the little people. It turns out he is confident."
Because the ships parked at the port are a bit small and the official robes worn by the man are a bit old, and as this port is the second largest of the four ports in Ningbo after the military port, he also works for the Maritime Affairs Department and is not under the jurisdiction of local officials, and often follows Officials deal with each other, so this little official is not afraid at all.
"We have been giving flags to the shore and wanted to land, but they did not let us enter the port. We have been wandering around the sea for an hour. In desperation, we had no choice but to make our own decisions and hope that I will forgive you." This official robe The man said softly.
"But my lord, it sounds like we made a mistake." The clerk said with a sneer.
There are still more than 60 ships on the sea waiting to enter the harbor. The ship on which this man in official robes is riding jumped in. However, he has not returned to the Ming Dynasty for several years and does not understand the rules here.
The man in official robes did not want to get into a verbal dispute with the junior official, and he admitted his mistake for a while. However, the junior official knew that killing could only be done with a nod, so he gave up immediately.
………………
After the ancestor worship is completed.
His Majesty the Emperor has decreed that the imperial chariot should stay in Nanjing to keep confidential military and state affairs. Government affairs from various places will be reported to Chen Yingtian and handed over to the Six Ministries of the Cabinet for sorting out. The city of Nanjing can return to its past without interfering too much in the lives of the people.
Originally, the officials in the south thought that after His Majesty the Emperor's southern tour and ancestor worship, he would return to Beijing for at most a month or two. But now that he had received this decree, they were dumbfounded. He was going to bring civil and military officials with him. Come and live.
They are here, what are they going to do?
In the Six Ministries of Nanjing, except for the officials of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs who still have places to work, the official offices of the other four ministries have long been occupied by people from the north. When they went to the Yamen, there was no place for them. They were informed that they had to rest at home and their salaries were paid. Take care of your hair.
Although it seemed to be very good to them, these elderly officials were unwilling to do so.
I can go to work and water ski, but I can’t tolerate not having a place to work...
I know I am an idler, but I cannot let Your Majesty think that I am an idler.
If His Majesty the Emperor feels unhappy that our Ming Dynasty still has so many idle people, and some of the officials in Nanjing have been reduced, then he will have to retire early.
Gangsters from the north, no, officials from the north, are very rude.
Now that it is clear that the dove is occupying the magpie's nest, other officials in the south have begun to write memorials to His Majesty the Emperor...
