The roar of the cannon quickly subsided, and when Chen Kan was about to persuade others to surrender, he never thought that the pirate fleet would take the lead in raising the white flag and send a small boat towards the fleet.
Is this gone?
Chen Kan was a little stunned. He thought it would take a lot of effort to get them to surrender.
The boat sailed to a stop a few hundred meters outside the treasure ship, and the sailors on the ship kept waving flags.
Chen Kan said to Song Qing with a bleak expression: "Let them come over!"
Song Qing received the order, the sailor waved the order flag, and the boat continued to sail towards the treasure ship.
When the pirate's boat approached, the sailors on the boat lowered the ladder, and the two dirty pirates climbed onto the deck along the ladder.
As soon as they got on the deck, Chen Kan couldn't help but pinch his nose.
Stinky, so stinky, it's like the stench of someone who hasn't had a bath in hundreds of years.
The leader of the pirates was covered from head to toe with an unknown dark substance.
But unexpectedly, as soon as the two pirates stepped onto the deck, they knelt down. The leader cried bitterly and said: "Today the envoy from the lower country finally got to see the power of the heaven above. Please make the decision for us." ah!"
As soon as the pirate made a sound, the expressions of the people on the ship suddenly changed.
Because the pirate is a woman.
That’s right, woman!
The navy of the Ming Dynasty has always had a tradition that it is bad luck for a woman to board a ship.
But today, they actually put a woman on the ship themselves and let her meet the supreme commander on the ship.
At this moment, no one noticed why a Japanese pirate actually spoke Chinese.
Song Qing hurriedly knelt down and apologized: "Commander, please forgive me. The general didn't know that the pirate envoy was actually a woman, so he threw her overboard."
After saying that, he hurriedly scolded the two generals: "Why are you still standing there? Throw them off the ship!"
Chen Kan: "?"
When the pirate leader heard Song Qing's words, his face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly defended himself: "The angel of the kingdom is Rong Zhen, and I am the daughter of the Japanese royal family. The envoy who went to the kingdom for help under the order of the emperor is not a pirate. Bandits and the like."
Chen Kan touched his chin and stopped the two soldiers from throwing the two pirates into the sea to feed the fish.
Then he asked: "You said you are the daughter of the Japanese royal family, which means you are the princess of Japan. Why did you become a pirate?"
Hearing this, the pirate leader immediately burst into tears.
"I would also like to ask the angel to give me a bite of food. Can you allow me to quench my hunger for a while and then tell the angel the details?"
Hearing this, Chen Kan couldn't help but frown slightly, and then he calmly ordered Zhang Dong behind him: "Take her down and give her something to eat. By the way, let her clean up and come see me again. It stinks!"
Upon hearing this, the pirate leader hurriedly knelt and thanked: "Thank you angel, thank you angel!"
Zhang Dong brought them into the cabin with a sinister look on his face.
Seeing Song Qing still kneeling there, Chen Kan couldn't help but roll his eyes at him: "Why are you pretending to be a loyal minister now? Get up!"
After hearing this, Song Qing stood up and asked curiously: "Commander, for such a woman of unknown origin, do you really believe she is the daughter of a Japanese king?"
Chen Kan had a smile on his face, but he was too lazy to answer Song Qing's nonsense.
Chen Kan was not sure whether they were the daughters of the Japanese king, but they said they were envoys from the Japanese kingdom, but Chen Kan believed them.
And he has roughly guessed why these people have fallen into this state.
If nothing else, he was the culprit who led them to this situation.
As for why they appeared in the South China Sea instead of the East China Sea, Chen Kan could guess a bit.
Of course, we will find out what the truth is in a moment.
Seeing that Chen Kan was silent, Song Qing didn't ask any more questions.
No matter what the situation is, these pirates will definitely become his servants in attacking Bolingbang.
It doesn't matter whether they are pirates or Japanese envoys.
...
Half an hour later, Chen Kan looked at the woman kneeling in front of him, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
At the same time, I also understood why she made herself look like that.
Without him, the woman actually has some beauty in her body.
Mainly because she has the intellectual beauty of an oriental woman, the kind of sister who looks gentle and generous.
"My daughter, Empress Song Masako, has seen an angel from the kingdom of heaven!"
The woman bowed to Chen Kan and bowed in five postures.
Chen Kan looked at her with interest, and then said calmly: "Forgive me."
"Thank you, sir."
Masako Gomatsu stood up and stood with his head bowed, his whole body a little reserved and uneasy.
Coupled with the intelligence that emanates from her whole person from the inside out, it can arouse the protective desire of others.
Chen Kan looked at her again and asked: "Masako Gomatsu, right? What is your relationship with Emperor Gomatsu of Japan?"
Gomatsu Masako raised his head and glanced at Chen Kan timidly, then lowered his head and replied, "The current emperor of Japan is none other than my father."
Chen Kanmo raised his chin and suddenly asked: "Is Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the great general of the Muromachi shogunate who conquered the barbarians, still alive?"
As soon as these words came out, Gomatsu Masako's face suddenly showed a look of astonishment.
"The envoy also knows about the general who conquered the barbarians?"
After the rhetorical question came out, Gosatsu Masako belatedly realized that Chen Kan was asking him, and hurriedly lowered his hands and apologized: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am a little surprised, but the general who conquered Yi has already arrived in the middle of the year. He died in Hokkaido fighting against foreign enemies."
Chen Kan looked at her with a half-smile but didn't ask any more questions.
Of course Chen Kan knew about Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. If it weren't for Chen Kan's arrival, the king of Japan during the Yongle period in history would have been Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the last general of the Japanese shogunate era.
Because Ashikaga Yoshimitsu did not recognize the emperor, but believed that the Ming Dynasty was the authentic one in Japan.
So he kept kneeling and licking Zhu Di, and his level of flattery was no less than that of his younger brother Li Fangyuan from North Korea.
Then, Zhu Di felt comfortable being licked by him, and not only recognized Ashikaga Yoshimitsu as the king of Japan, but also gave him the gold seal.
Even after the death of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, Zheng He was sent to give him a posthumous title and to present him as the king of Ming Japan.
After the death of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the shogunate era in Japanese history came to an end, and what followed was the Warring States Period of the Hundred Tun War.
Of course, this is the original historical time and space.
Today's Japan has nothing to do with the Ming Dynasty. The only connection is that the Ming Dynasty transports millions of taels of silver back from Iwami Silver Mountain every year.
Chen Kan's expression returned to normal and he said, "Tell me why you intercepted my fleet this time."
After hearing this, Masako Housong hurriedly and carefully took out a crumpled letter of credence from his arms and presented it to Chen Kan.
Then he said with a voice on the verge of tears: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, I have no choice but to intercept the Envoy's fleet this time.
At the end of last year, for unknown reasons, the Jurchen barbarians living in the black mountains and white waters of Liaodong first sent troops to attack North Korea, and then crossed the strait and landed on our Japanese territory.
In the middle of this year, the Jurchen barbarian army has occupied the northern border of our Japanese territory.
As a last resort, the father of his daughter had to join forces with the general to conquer the barbarians and jointly send troops to resist the barbarians.
However, the barbarian soldiers were powerful and killed the general in Hokkaido. In desperation, the father of the subject had no choice but to use the subject as his envoy to travel across the ocean to the country of the lord to ask for asylum.
However, she has never been able to get in. Every time I lead a fleet near the East China Sea, I will be chased away as pirates by the heavenly soldiers of the heaven..."
What Masako Gomatsu told was quite different from Chen Kan’s guess.
Of course, Chen Kan would definitely not tell him that it was his handiwork to let the Jurchens attack Japan, nor would he tell him that it was his instruction to let the Ming Navy drive away the Japanese fleet.
Therefore, Gomatsu Masako will never know that what she stopped today was actually the culprit that caused all this.
And when Masako Gomatsu finished telling her story, she was already in tears.
Chen Kan took the credentials and did not open it. He just looked at Housong Masako and said regretfully: "I never thought that such an outrageous thing would happen right under the nose of my Ming Dynasty. Princess, don't worry, I, the Ming Dynasty, will definitely not do this." Stand back and watch.”
Gomatsu Masako suddenly became happy and saluted hurriedly: "Please also ask the envoy to send out the heavenly soldiers to save my Japanese people from the fire and water."
But as soon as she finished speaking, a look of embarrassment appeared on Chen Kan's face.
"this?"
Seeing Chen Kan's hesitation, Masako Gomatsu asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, what's the problem?"
Chen Kan nodded, returned the certificate of credence to Housong Masako, and said: "I will not hide it from you. This time my fleet went south because I have important matters, so I really have no intention of sending troops. Method."
As soon as these words came out, Gomatsu Masako suddenly felt as if a basin of cold water was poured on the top of his head, and his whole body was chilled from head to toe.
