Chapter 130: Satsuma
Kagoshima Bay, Sakurajima Volcano!
Located in Kagoshima Bay, Kyushu, Japan, it is the symbolic representative of Kagoshima. It is composed of Kitakake (1117 meters above sea level), Nakadake (1060 meters above sea level) and Nandake (1040 meters above sea level). It covers an area of about 77 square kilometers. Very active active volcano.
It is now an out-and-out volcanic island. Small eruptions occur almost every day. The loud noise just now was a big eruption. A plume of smoke rose into the sky. It was surrounded by lightning. It was far away. Observed with a telescope. See the fiery red lava flowing down like a stream!
is very spectacular!
"There is their residence next to it. How did the Japanese build important cities on the side of the volcano?" Chen Zhongji asked puzzledly.
"The Japanese people don’t care about this. They like cherry blossoms. The flowering period of the cherry blossoms is very short. The Japanese people think that it is enough to cherish them. They think that the most beautiful time of the cherry blossoms is not when they are in full bloom, but when they wither, they are dazzling for a moment. It's enough to reach the peak in beauty!
So the Japanese don’t care if the city is built on the edge of a volcano, even if it is destroyed by the volcano, as long as you live it, you will succeed! "Yan Changwu speaks authentically.
"This is a country with connotations, and it doesn't look easy to mess with!" Storm said next to him.
"Exactly! If we go to war with the entire Japanese kingdom, there is no chance of winning, and there is no need!" Yan Changwu said.
In the previous military discussions, some people coveted the gold and silver of Wadao so much, and they thought it would be great to get a share of the pie!
"Just think about it!" Yan Changwu said unceremoniously.
The population alone is less than 300,000 people, while the tens of millions of people in the country want to be swallowed by a snake?
There is a weak culture in the Southeast Prefecture. Maybe the Japanese country swallowed itself instead of swallowing the Japanese country.
It was the sun, and the twelve capital ships and logistics ships of the Southeast Fleet were anchored in Kagoshima Bay, and the naval officer Hong Xiguan was ordered to negotiate with the Satsuma clan.
Satsuma clan!
The official name is Kagoshima Domain. It is a domain of Japan in the Edo Period. It is located in the southwestern part of Kyushu. During the Edo Period, its territory was controlled by Satsuma, Osumi, and part of Hyuga. In addition, the Ryukyu Kingdom was also under their control. The territory includes the entire area of Kagoshima Prefecture today (including the Amami Islands of the Ryukyu Kingdom) and the southwestern part of Miyazaki Prefecture.
Before the Tokugawa shogunate, this was Satsuma, Osumi, and part of Hyuga. The Satsuma clan was established after the Battle of Sekigahara. In the Edo period, the daimyo vassals who were close to the shogunate were near Edo, which is now Tokyo, and the more distant the relationship, the farther away from Edo. The Satsuma clan is located in the westernmost part of the four islands of Japan, and its relationship with the shogunate can be imagined.
The whip is beyond reach!
The "big tail can't fall" in the future!
At that time, Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Edo shogunate, had a great talent, and replaced the monkey (Kinoshita Tokichiro) as the ruler of the Japanese country. He also knew that Satsuma clan was renunciation of the shogunate, but there was no way.
Because of Shimazu Yoshihiro! ,
Although the Shimadzu family was in the Western Army (anti-Tokugawa) during the Battle of Sekihara (the Satsuma clan), they should have been on the side of liquidation after the war, but Tokugawa Ieyasu was afraid of the Shimadzu Army at Shimazu Yoshihiro ( Participated in the Kisakihara battle, the Sizhou battle, the Lulianghai battle, the Sekihara escape battle, etc.). On the one hand, it respects such a relatively powerful opponent, plus the volcanic area and typhoon in the area. The bad natural conditions are really tasteless and tasteless (it would be different if the plain is rich), and the Tokugawa family’s retainer Ii Naomasa’s plea for mercy, basically maintained the original state of the Shimadzu territory, which also made the Shimadzu family In addition to the Tokugawa family, he became a feudal clan that is also known as Date and Maeda.
...
The lord of the Satsuma domain, Shimazu Tadao, was the first lord of the Satsuma domain during the Edo period of the country. He became the lord of the domain as the third son of Yoshihiro Shimazu. He went to North Korea with his father when he was fourteen. He fought, murdered, and set fire to North Korea. Little Japanese pirate, thinking about it, is cruel.
For this visit of people from the Southeast Prefecture, Shimadzu Tadashi paid great attention to him, and personally received official Hong Xi.
The "Kuanhai Pavilion" located on the seashore is located on the high ground, and you can easily see the Sakurajima volcano on the other side of the bay. You can watch the fire across the sea and the scenery is beautiful. However, the Japanese people at the meeting are not happy, and they can also see it with the help of Western-style binoculars. Mingren's battleship in the distance!
Tall and majestic, with many muzzles, in contrast, the boats on the side are not worth mentioning!
The current Wa country is in the early stage of the Edo shogunate. After Toyotomi Hideyoshi's failure to invade North Korea, the people's minds are stable, the military is not active, and the military is very poor!
Especially seeing the Mingren representatives who came in made the Japanese people even more depressed.
Hong Xi's official clothes are very glamorous, the beautiful military uniforms and the accessories on them brighten the eyes of the Japanese!
I have never seen Mingren costumes, but I have to say, it’s so beautiful!
He is tall, with a good complexion, a magnificent air, and a neat military appearance. He is the first to win the game.
Achieved Yan Changwu's goal: to shock the opponent before fighting.
After entering, dozens of Japanese Japanese stared at him. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Hong Xiguan was not afraid at all. When he went to see the governor of Fujian and the general army of coastal defense, he was not stage fright. Now coming to see him is equivalent to a prefect. The Japanese wives are not afraid anymore.
He bowed to Shimazu Tadashi, and Shimadzu also bowed slightly in return.
明人!
Tangren!
The great eastern powers that resemble huge monsters are weighing heavily on the hearts of the Japanese people, and they have been defeated in their hands during several continental expeditions. Right now, the big ships of Ming people are coming, and the Japanese people really dare not arrogant!
"...I came by the order of my lord, the governor of the southeastern palace of Daming, because I, Daming, received a complaint from the vassal of the Ryukyu Kingdom, saying that you violated them for no reason, forced them to sign an unequal treaty, and disrespect me!..." (above A hundred sentences omitted)
"Therefore, we ask you to withdraw from the Amami Goto Islands, and at the same time compensate the Ryukyu Kingdom for the loss of one hundred thousand taels of silver, and pay one hundred thousand taels of silver to our country! My lord was once assassinated by your people, and you must pay one hundred thousand taels of silver!" The official Hong Xi was utterly and authentic, which immediately caused a commotion among the Japanese people. Some people denounced him as "Baga", and some people wanted to find him instead of scolding him!
The Chinese he used was understood by many Japanese people present.
At that time, Chinese was the aristocratic language in the upper echelons of Wa and Bangzi, while Japanese and Korean were used by civilians. For example, the Korean "Xunmin Zhengyin" was a communication language for the inferior people. The aristocrats used Chinese, so everyone The communication was unhindered, and immediately the public sentiment raged like porridge.
Amami Goto back to Ryukyu? Don't even think about it, the meat that we Japanese eat in, don't think we vomit it out.
Three hundred thousand taels of silver, you might as well grab it!
The Satsuma clan’s environment is bad, the income is not abundant, the people have no white rice to import, and the courtiers have no money at home.
In a word: if you want money or don’t have an island, there is one!
