"It can't end..."
"No one can end this war..."
"Even if you send me to the Ryukyu Kingdom, to the Ming Dynasty, and let them cut me into pieces, they will not end this war, and they will not withdraw from the Ryukyu Kingdom, Tsushima, or Kyushu in the future. It will no longer be the Kyushu of our Satsuma clan, nor will it be the Kyushu of any clan, it will belong to the Ming Dynasty..."
"If you don't want this to happen, you should follow me firmly and fight to the death with the Ming army who landed in Tsurumaru City. Let them know that they need to pay a heavy price to enter Kyushu..."
"Only in this way can the Satsuma Domain have a chance of survival, Kyushu Island can have a chance of survival, and even our entire Japanese country can have a chance of survival..."
Shimazu Tachihisa murmured.
He did not look back, still looking at the map in front of him, but his eyes had shifted from the location of Ryukyu Kingdom to Daming...
He was angry, jealous...
Why did those Han people live in a country with abundant resources and vast territory as soon as they were born? Even if their emperor was mediocre and their court was incompetent, they were still a powerful country. However, the Japanese country, no matter how hard they tried, could not change their essential nature. Weak.
After listening to Shimazu Ritsuku's words, he sighed deeply, then held the knife in his hand tightly and walked towards his eldest brother.
Shimazu Tachihisa never looked back...
But in front of Shimazu Tachihisa, behind the screen he bought with a lot of money from the Ming Dynasty, four black warriors holding Japanese swords suddenly appeared.
As soon as these warriors appeared, they rushed past Shimazu Ritshisa and rushed towards Shimazu Ritsuke...
After a bloody night, Shimazu Tachihisa was killed.
Shimazu became the new governor of the Satsuma Domain. The first thing he did after becoming the governor was to lower the flag at half-staff and send envoys to the Ming Dynasty with beauties and gifts. He wanted to re-establish friendship with the Ming Dynasty, and also hoped that The Ming Dynasty was able to restrain the navy outside from frequently plundering Kyushu Island. It also hoped that the Ming army in the Ryukyu Kingdom could exercise restraint and not often go to Tsurumaru Castle to fire artillery.
Of course, later facts proved that Shimazu Tachihisa was right. Once this war started, it was impossible to end.
The second thing Shimazu did for meritorious service was to let Asako Nedada take her little Japanese emperor to leave Tsurumaru Castle and return to Honshu within a month. In addition to the little Japanese emperor, he followed the two Japanese emperors. The great nobles of Kyoto who arrived together are also leaving Tsurumaru Castle.
The Nedada family and even the royal family were not very panicked. After receiving the order, they sent people to Honshu Island, found Motori Motonari, and asked the Maori family to send people to welcome the Japanese emperor back to Honshu.
At this time, the war in Kanto and Kansai was tense, and neither side achieved great results.
As soon as Maori Yuan received the order from the royal family, he immediately sent people to pick up the young Japanese emperor. He sent people not because the Maori family had changed their gender and wanted to be loyal to His Majesty.
The main reason is that Ashikaga Yoshimasa has communicated with the royal family members who stayed in Kyoto and wants to support a new Japanese emperor. Especially after the death of Gotsuchimikado, the things that were originally hidden and planned in secret have now almost been moved to the Ming Dynasty. On the surface, Kanto is questioning the Japanese emperor's bloodline born from the women of the Nedada family. Kanto objects, and Kansai must support it. At this time, it is in the interest of the Maori family to welcome back the little Japanese emperor.
Shimazu Rikō is a qualified general, but he is definitely not a qualified family governor, especially after the Satsuma Domain's overall strength suffered heavy losses.
If his brother Shimazu Tachihisa had not been killed by him.
At this time, what needs to be done is to firmly hold the imperial family and the Japanese Emperor in their hands. Only in this way can we have the opportunity to restrain the disloyal daimyo from all over Kyushu Island. At this time, the Japanese Emperor left Tsurumaru Castle and Satsuma. Fan, the biggest trump card in their hand is gone.
If other people want to settle accounts with you, Satsuma Domain, they no longer have the slightest concern...
The situation on Kyushu Island has undergone earth-shaking changes. The Satsuma clan no longer has the strength to control Kyushu Island... Internal chaos has begun again...
The envoys sent out by Shimazu for meritorious service received a great cold reception after arriving in the Ming Dynasty. The fifth-rank officials of the Ministry of Rites who received them had no chance to meet the senior officials of the Ming Dynasty who could speak to them. Half a month later, , the Japanese mission from Kyushu Island violated the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and the envoy was imprisoned, and the beauties and gold and silver treasures they brought were also confiscated... However, Shimazu, who had been waiting for him on Kyushu Island, had made meritorious service and waited until his death. Seeing the envoys he sent out...
In the Palace of Qianqing.
Zhu Jianshen sat in front of the imperial court, holding in his hand a memorial from the Duke's Mansion of Yunnan Guizhou.
They are ready to move into Thanh Hoa City in Annan, and the vanguard has already started to leave.
At the beginning of the year, Zhu Jianshen summoned Chen Ying to discuss whether to keep Shi Biao in Annan or let the Duke of Guizhou move south.
Chen Ying's thoughts coincided with Zhu Jianshen's.
He also trusted the loyalty of the Duke of Guizhou and Mu Zan's ability.
As a general born and raised in Yunnan, Yunnan is very mountainous. He himself has no experience in large-scale army operations in the Great Plains, but Shi Biao does. Putting Shi Biao in Annan would not be easy for Mu Zan to arrange, and Shi Biao was at the time. It is much more suitable to come to Liaodong when you are in your prime. ŴŴŴ.BIQUGE.biz
In the end, Zhu Jianshen made up his mind to let the Duke of Guizhou move south again.
The Duke of Guizhou's strategy to manage the southwest was a policy set at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. Because Annan's environment was a place of four wars, it was necessary to always be prepared for battles. This was a century-old plan.
The Duke of Guizhou was more suitable to stay in Annan than Shi Biao.
At the beginning of February, three imperial edicts arrived in Yunnan and Annan respectively.
The first letter was to agree to the request of the Duke of Guizhou, allowing them to move their residence from Kunming to Qinghua, and to increase the annual salary of the Duke of Guizhou.
Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the annual salary of Duke Xu Da of Wei was 5,000 dan, and the second was that of Korean Duke Li Shanchang, who had an annual salary of 4,000 dan. Starting from the Yongle period, the annual salary of all the Dukes of the Kingdom decreased. The British Duke, Cheng The annual salary of the Duke of Guizhou has always been 2,000 dan, and the annual salary of the Duke of Guizhou has always been 1,500 dan. Because he moved south to Qinghua City, Zhu Jianshen raised the annual salary standard of the Duke of Guizhou from 1,500 dan to 2,000 dan.
The second edict was to let Mu Zan of the Duke of Guizhou pay homage to General Zhennan, and cast a new seal of General Zhennan, replacing the position of Marquis Shi Biao of Liaoping, and commanding hundreds of thousands of Ming troops and the entourage of chieftains. Transferred to Mu Zan's hands,
The third edict was given to Shi Biao, requiring him to return to the capital after completing the deployment and handover. He was also given certain rewards. His duties were also adjusted, and he was added to the rank of General Zhaowu, the right commander of the Central Army of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion. , the commander-in-chief of the three provinces of Liaodong. In terms of title, Zhu Jianshen did not promote him. Before he was forty years old, he had already become the deputy minister of defense and the commander of a large military region in later generations. He would not be promoted until he made meritorious deeds later. Can be promoted...
Shi Biao started to return to the capital at the end of April, and by this time he had arrived in Huguang...
