"Say, the navy of the Ming Dynasty suddenly went south and attacked the navy's grain transport ship of the Japanese Kingdom. Did you tip it off?"
Matsudaira Nobutsuna's vicious questions scared Fan Wencheng to the point where he almost lost his soul.
Naturally, he knew exactly how serious the matter was when the Japanese navy's grain transport ship was wiped out. I had never been able to figure out why the Ming Navy suddenly appeared. Now I have a reasonable explanation. Someone here tipped off the news, so it makes sense.
However, the person who tipped off the information was himself, and Fan Wencheng absolutely could not accept it, nor could he bear the consequences of being wrongly accused.
"It's unjust, Mr. Lao Zhong, it's unjust!" Fan Wencheng immediately shouted out loudly, as if he was a hundred times more unjust than Dou E. "The villain has been in the army all the time, and is accompanied by Jurchens, how is it possible? Is there any chance to send a message to the Ming Dynasty?"
"Look, has he admitted it?" Hauge heard this and immediately sneered at Matsudaira Nobutsuna, "If there is a chance, he will definitely pass the news to Mingguo! Besides, who knows He has no way of delivering the message secretly!"
When Matsudaira Nobutsuna heard this, he stared at Fan Wencheng with his little eyes, almost getting angry. Once the army rations are lost, the army of 100,000 will be in danger. As a confidant of Tokugawa Iemitsu, he would find it difficult to bear this kind of consequences.
Fan Wencheng hated Hauge so much that he suddenly became smart and caught him with his speech disorder!
He didn't care anymore, his knees softened, and he knelt in front of Matsudaira Nobutsuna, stretched out his hands, and said very sincerely with what he thought was the most sincere manner: "I swear to God, if I am a spy of the Ming Dynasty, Just let the villain be struck with five thunders from heaven, and he will die a good death!"
"Boom..." At this moment, a thunder suddenly sounded and exploded over Pyongyang City. Fan Wencheng was so frightened that he trembled and almost peed.
Matsudaira Nobutsuna looked up at the sky, and he didn't know when the clouds had become dense. Suddenly there was another bolt of lightning, and then the "boom" of thunder came again. It is estimated that a heavy rain will fall soon.
"Hahaha..." Seeing this, Hauge couldn't help but laugh wildly in the sky, pointed Fan Wencheng with the blade of his knife, and shouted loudly, "Don't you want the sky to strike with thunder? Look, God has promised you!"
Although Fan Wencheng was not frightened to the point of peeing in the end, he was really frightened: as soon as he finished swearing, the thunder rang out. Could it be that God was displeased with him and wanted to punish him?
In fact, this season is the rainy season on the Korean Peninsula, and thunder and rain are very common.
In the scene just now, they didn't pay attention to the weather. They were all attracted by the news brought by Hauge. Just when Fan Wencheng swore, the thunder rang. It could be said to be a coincidence, but of course, there could also be other reasons, such as the fact that the coffin board of his ancestor could not be covered, and the sky wanted to kill the grandson!
No matter what, at this time, I believe in some relatively coincidental things. If you swear to be struck by lightning, that means you may have violated your oath.
Therefore, when Fan Wencheng faced Hauge's question, he was a little distracted for a moment, so that he was dumbfounded and did not answer.
Seeing this scene, those Jianlu who originally believed in Fan Wencheng finally believed Hauge's words. They remembered that the fall of the Qing Dynasty was all caused by this bright dog. The anger towards Fan Wencheng could kill Fan Wen with his eyes. Procedure. If it weren't for the presence of Japanese people like Matsudaira Nobutsuna, they would have rushed to ask Fan Wencheng to look good at this moment.
"Baga!" Matsudaira Nobutsuna finally shouted angrily at Fan Wencheng, "Your conscience is so bad! It's dead!"
With a wave of his hand, his men pressed towards Fan Wencheng and wanted to arrest Fan Wencheng.
However, in Matsudaira Nobutsuna's heart, he did not absolutely believe that Fan Wencheng was really a Ming spy. However, the Japanese army mobilized their troops. Not only did a hundred thousand troops march into North Korea, but more mobilizations followed. It can be said that the alliance with the Qing Dynasty to plot the Ming Dynasty made the Japanese country use their full strength.
However, just at the beginning, the Qing Dynasty, as an important chess piece, had been wiped out by the Ming army, leaving the Japanese country without allies who could share the pressure of the Ming Dynasty. When the army rushed to Pyongyang, the Ming army ran out of food, leaving the 100,000-strong army. was in danger.
All of this was a huge setback for the Japanese country. If it goes wrong, it will not only affect the life and death of the 100,000 troops in Pyongyang, but also affect the stability of the Tokugawa shogunate.
For such a big thing, someone must take the blame!
It is okay for Matsudaira Nobutsuna to take the blame himself. After all, he is the coach of this expedition to North Korea, and he was also one of the confidants who originally suggested Tokugawa Iemitsu to send troops to North Korea. Even if there is careful work in the army, it can still be due to an oversight by the commander.
However, now in North Korea, Matsudaira Nobutsuna is the biggest, and no one can convict him. And Hauge gave him another scapegoat. As long as it was confirmed that Fan Wencheng was a spy of the Ming Dynasty, the huge crisis in the Japanese country would have very little to do with him, Matsudaira Nobutsuna.
After all, Fan Wencheng was from the Qing Dynasty, and as a representative of the Qing Dynasty, he accompanied the army. Moreover, he participated in the alliance with the Qing Dynasty from beginning to end. When it comes to oversight, the Qing Dynasty is most responsible. They sent a Ming Dynasty spy over. How could the Japanese country know this?
Taking a step back, Matsudaira Nobutsuna has no friendship with Fan Wencheng, so why should he speak for him and clear his name?
Therefore, Fan Wencheng's charge of being a spy for the Ming Dynasty was definitely confirmed.
Fan Wencheng stared at Matsudaira Nobutsuna, and when he saw the look in his eyes, he roughly understood what his situation was.
Seeing the Japanese approaching him, Fan Wencheng suddenly changed his face and shouted loudly: "There is another urgent report!"
Everyone present, except Hauge, was frightened by the urgent report from the Japanese scouts, and quickly turned around worriedly.
But there was no urgent news at all, but the dark clouds were getting lower, and a heavy rain was about to begin.
Knowing that something was wrong, they turned back one after another.
What a good Fan Wencheng, who is worthy of being "both civil and military". He seized such a short opportunity, kicked his legs hard, performed a forward leaping fish roll, and jumped in front of Matsudaira Nobutsuna.
Matsudaira Nobutsuna was so frightened that he quickly stepped back, and at the same time reached out to draw his own katana.
However, Fan Wencheng was not willing to give him a chance, but that was not giving him a way to survive. Therefore, in this desperate situation, it was also an extraordinary performance, very fast. He grabbed Matsudaira Nobutsuna's katana first, pulled it out for him, and with a stroke, he put it on Matsudaira Nobutsuna's neck. At the same time, he roared loudly: "Don't move, no one can do it." Don't move, or we'll die together!"
What happened in this flash of lightning made everyone around him dumbfounded.
Now, Master Lao Zhong has fallen into the hands of a Ming spy. What should we do about this matter?
Taking advantage of their moment of daze, Fan Wencheng immediately took a detour and hid behind Matsudaira Nobutsuna, hugging Matsudaira Nobutsuna, preventing him from having a chance to move and struggle, fearing that he would break away or that he would be careless. , was beheaded with a sharp samurai sword placed on his neck.
Then, while holding Matsudaira Nobutsuna hostage, he slowly retreated to the battlements to lean on him, and then said to Matsudaira Nobutsuna in a very sincere tone: "Master Laozhong, believe me, I am really not a spy of the Ming Dynasty!"
The world is so big that he has nowhere to go. The only way he can go is to eliminate this misunderstanding.
"How dare you say that you are not a Ming spy?" Hauge heard this and yelled at Fan Wencheng again, "Look, you Chinese dogs are really good at telling lies. You can't believe it at all!"
"I believe you are not a Ming Dynasty spy!" But who knows, Matsudaira Nobutsuna said this.
His words surprised everyone. For a moment, Hauge stared at him in disbelief, wondering in his heart, not knowing which of his eyes could see that Fan Wencheng, who was obviously a Ming spy, was not a Ming spy?
After hearing this, Fan Wencheng was overjoyed at first, and then dumbfounded. Because he discovered that if he let go of Matsudaira Nobutsuna like this, what would happen if he turned against her later? In other words, it is very likely that Matsudaira Nobutsuna just wants to stabilize him!
If we don't let go of Matsudaira Nobutsuna, things will continue to be deadlocked.
Let Matsudaira Nobutsuna go. If he turns against him, he will have no chips in his hand and will have to wait for death!
At this moment, Fan Wencheng suddenly became extremely entangled, so entangled that he almost died!
Finally, Fan Wencheng cried, or at least with a cry in his voice, he said to Matsudaira Nobutsuna: "Master Laozhong, this villain is really not a spy of the Ming Dynasty!"
"Well, I believe in you!" Matsudaira Nobutsuna felt his desire to survive, so he calmed down and immediately answered Fan Wencheng.
However, Fan Wencheng still didn't dare to let go. For a while, there was a stalemate.
"boom……"
There was another thunderous explosion, and the big raindrops finally tilted down.
Seeing this, Fan Wencheng was inspired, and he said to Matsudaira Nobutsuna in a begging manner: "Lao Zhong-sama, it's not that I can't believe it. It's really about my life! I also ask Lao Zhong-sama to swear that I will definitely believe in you." Man, this way the villain can feel at ease!"
After hearing this, Matsudaira Nobutsuna subconsciously turned his eyes upward and glanced at the dark clouds above his head. To be honest, he didn't dare to swear that there would be a thunderbolt, what if it came true?
The rain kept falling, and the atmosphere was not harmonious, or very unharmonious, or weird. It was related to Matsudaira Nobutsuna's safety, and even Hauge didn't dare to make any more noise.
To Fan Wencheng, it seemed like a long time passed before he heard Nobutsuna Matsudaira reply: "Okay, I swear, I believe you are not a spy of the Ming Dynasty, otherwise you will be pierced by thousands of arrows and die!"
This oath can be said to be very poisonous.
Fan Wencheng finally felt a little relieved. In fact, he had no other choice. You can't just carry Matsudaira Nobutsuna until eternity, right?
