Chapter 126: Kumemura Treaty
The third day of March in the first year of Chongzhen, Daming, Kume Village.
The Southeastern Government of Daming and the Kingdom of Daming Ryukyu want to strengthen the treaty of honesty and eternal friendship between the two parties and the regulations of peaceful and peaceful trade. They believe that the two parties will abide by the rules in the future. It is Chen Zhongji, CEO of the Military Aircraft Department of the Southeastern Government; The order of doing things cheaply and the edict of full authority are good and proper, because the terms of the agreement are listed on the left...
The main content of the "Kume Village Treaty" is:
1. Friendship: From then on, the people of the two forces, no matter where they are, should be friendly to each other, sincerely reconcile, and ensure peace and prosperity forever.
These are the words on the face, in private, Yan Changwu promised not to interfere in the internal affairs and diplomacy of the Kingdom of Ryukyu.
Yes, we don’t directly interfere, but we will further cultivate the pro-China faction,
Set up a representative office of the Southeastern Prefecture in the Kingdom of Ryukyu to handle the interests and related affairs of the Southeastern Prefecture.
2. The Southeast Prefecture has set up three military bases in Ryukyu. They are located in the Amami Island chain in the north, the Ryukyu Islands in the middle, and the Maejima Islands in the south. Each base is set up to allow the southeast government to garrison, one of which is located at Amami Oshima.
This island. . . Married to one woman and two marriages. On September 19, 1611 (the 16th year of Keichang, Japan), the then king of Ryukyu King Sang Ning was forced to sign the "Fifteen Articles" with Satsuma clan, recognizing Satsuma clan’s control of Ryukyu . At the same time, Amami five islands (that is, Kikai Island, Tokuno Island, Amami Oshima, Okinagabe Island and Yoron Island) will be set up.
The Ryukyu people did not dare to do this, because of the request of the Southeast Government. . . The baby Yan Changwu wants to make trouble.
Naturally, King Shangfeng and the Ryukyu people were very happy and happy to see the result (this is also an important reason why the Ryukyu people are willing to sign the treaty, and the Ryukyu people can explain to their ancestors), so Yan Changwu said that once the Amami Goto islands are recovered, Will be returned to the Ryukyu people.
People from Southeast Prefecture look down on the Ryukyu Islands!
The place is barren and there are no good specialties. Yes, let them take care of themselves, so that we don’t have to post them upside down!
Now all the money is posted, and the rent is 10,000 silver dollars a year!
Yan Changwu persuaded his subordinates in this way: "We are not short on this money. We can control a waterway with ten thousand silver dollars. It is worth it both military and politically. Let the Ryukyu people benefit. Their monarch can explain to the people, and we can also promote it. We are not looting, but we can also use this as assistance to make our allies' lives better!"
Natural flattering words are like tides, Qi Zan Yan Chang Wu is benevolent and unparalleled.
In addition to the garrison base, the treaty also allows the southeast prefecture's warships and merchant ships to berth at various ports after receiving the permission of the Ryukyu Kingdom for resupply and rest, subject to the taxation and management laws of the Ryukyu Kingdom.
If anyone from the southeast prefecture commits crimes in Ryukyu, they shall act in accordance with the laws of the Ryukyu Kingdom. . . However, there must be a hearing by the representative office of the Southeast Government, and its handling shall not be interfered.
"Since you have committed a crime outside, you must accept it. Let's not do tyrannical things!" Yan Changwu approved this clause, which seemed to be unfavorable, and a murderous expression appeared on his face: "I hate the most. It’s because people who don’t care about laws and regulations represent our face outside, and dare to lose my face. The Ryukyu Kingdom sentenced the prisoner to three years in prison. I will add another year!"
"By the way, since we have our hearing, the Ryukyu people will save face!" Yan Changwu's tone changed slowly and said: "Let the prisoner return to China to serve his sentence!"
is also a wave of flattery, Qi praises Yan Changwu as selfless and kind as Bao Gong. . . Yan Changwu said angrily: "I'm not black!"
……
Three, make'Mazu' the protector of the Kingdom of Ryukyu!
The Southeast Government sponsored the establishment of many Mazu temples in the Kingdom of Ryukyu. The officials of the Kingdom of Ryukyu are responsible for leading the people to worship at the four seasons.
This is an extremely important move. As he speaks, Yan Changwu promises to bring the glory of Mazu to all parts of the world. This is only the first step. He spares no effort to promote the Mazu faith.
Fourth, the Southeastern Prefecture has given a series of assistance to the Kingdom of Ryukyu, including training the army, establishing hospitals, and exporting agricultural technology.
Training the army is a win-win situation. Regarding the weakness of the Ryukyu Kingdom’s military strength, Yan Changwu will of course not help them build a navy. Even if they are given warships, they can’t afford it, but there is still no problem in strengthening their land defense.
The Kingdom of Ryukyu sent officials and children to the Southeast Prefecture for military training, so that the pro-Southeast Prefecture faction could be cultivated, and the Southeast Prefecture generously covered all the expenses.
This is military affairs. As for cultural affairs, it is not laughable and generous. The Ryukyu Kingdom’s Zhihuzhe also surpassed the Southeast Prefecture Duoduo.
The establishment of a hospital is one aspect of the Southeastern Government. Its Southeast Naval Academy has a military medical department, which actually serves as the training of both civilian and military medical personnel.
in this way. . . With the hospital, it is a great thing for Shien to serve the Ryukyu people, and even the people from the southeast prefecture to Ryukyu!
Agricultural export technology. . . We will not give our money-making core technology to others, but we also hope that our allies can live well and not be too poor, so as not to lose the face of our Southeast Mansion. Behold, following the forces of the Southeast Mansion will not have a good life. . . This remark is reflected in the memoirs of Chen Zhongji in the Southeast Mansion.
Therefore, in the "Kume Village Treaty", the Southeast Prefecture sent old farmers to Ryukyu to teach agricultural planting techniques and water conservancy projects.
Chen Zhongji, the principal in charge of agricultural affairs in the Southeastern Prefecture, is very handy. He pointed out to the Ryukyu people that they mainly use sweet potatoes and rice, and grow sugarcane and fruits as cash crops to earn money.
He said peacefully to the state minister: "We have packaged your sugarcane. We will charge you as much as you want, and we will pay according to the market price!"
that's nice!
Fourth, Ryukyu provides convenience for the Southeastern Prefecture ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Southeastern Prefecture also provides convenience for Ryukyu, Ryukyu merchant ships arriving in the Southeastern Prefecture, can enter the port for replenishment and rest, the two sides agreed to be equivalent to their own nationals.
This is the benefit of having the "Da Ming" status!
I have a sense of identity. To tell the truth, the Southeast Government’s presence in Ryukyu actually violated Ryukyu’s interests. However, the Ryukyu people warmly welcome the presence of the Southeast Government. Wouldn’t it be so easy if everyone had the word “Da Ming” on their heads?
……
All kinds of favorable conditions make Ryukyu people deeply agree, Qizan, this is Daming!
Monk Chen Zhongji and he first concluded a contract, and then the heads of both sides, the governor of the Southeast Palace Yan Changwu and King Shangfeng of the Ryukyu Kingdom each used their seals, and the contract was established!
King Shangfeng used the golden seal canonized to him by the Ming Dynasty, while Yan Changwu's seal was a jade seal!
The seals carved from top-grade mutton fat white jade printed the words "Southeast Fuyan", which made the Ryukyu monarchs look a little weird, and they knew what they had encountered. (For those who dare to use jade seals publicly, their unwillingness to submit to it is obvious)
But the situation is better than people, Ryukyu people can only deceive themselves: Fortunately, they are still Ming people, fortunately they can help their lost land!
So, the righteous name is very important.
……
It was night. Under the detention of the Ryukyu people, Yan Changwu stayed in Kume Village.
Chen Zhongji told Shanghe: "...Our Southeast Mansion has its own laws and regulations, non-allies, general-level officers are not allowed to stay on the shore, and must return to the ship to sleep. Now as an ally, we dare to let the warlord stay in Jume Village!"
Shanghe continued to say: "...will live up to the covenant."
It is a good thing that Yan Changwu does not return to the ship, otherwise he will be frightened.
Japanese three ghosts want to blow up the big ship Southeast Fu!
