Chapter 131: Must fight
Some widows, such as general Matsuo Kei, were grumpy and yelled for a fight.
Such reckless people have lost their labor status as much as he said. Official Hong Xi turned a deaf ear to him.
There are also some Japanese people such as Ruoshan, the old Xixiang, who said: "We respect Daming, and Hong Jun always talks about Daming, but Daming has never seen a person dressed up like Hong Jun, dare to ask Master Hong, the governor of the Southeast Mansion. Thanks to Daming, you might as well give some advice!"
Regarding his remarks, Hong Xiguan immediately taught the Japanese people to recognize the situation: "My Southeastern Prefecture, now I am visiting Ryukyu for a friendly visit, and occupying Taiwan again, choking the seaborne trade between Daming and Japan!"
One sentence made the Japanese people clearly understand the situation: "Whoever we are, whether I'm an official or a thief, we just need to strangle your neck!"
The Japanese people were naturally dissatisfied, and Hong Xiguan didn't argue with them. He just smiled with a hateful look that the Japanese people could not wait to take him down. . . Let him do his own daughter for nothing, to improve the blood of the Japanese!
These excellent varieties are worthy of being from Daming!
The Japanese were short in race, and Daming was still going to the country at that time. It is not uncommon for Japanese to find Daming to improve their pedigree.
Needless to say, the day's meeting ended up unhappy.
Shimazu Tadashi did not make any statement, he smiled and asked Hong Xiguan to rest, listened to the response, and ordered the people to entertain the envoy of the Ming Dynasty, not to be negligent!
After Hong Xiguan left, Shimadzu Tadaki's face sank and said, "The Edo side has a final conclusion on how to deal with Akira!"
The Japanese widows in Ryukyu came back on a fast boat to inform the Satsuma clan that Mingjin had come, and the Satsuma clan reported to the Edo shogunate.
Everyone's faces became serious and listened to the following.
"Edo wants us to act by ear!" Shimazu Tadashi told everyone.
Saying doesn’t mean saying it for nothing. If you handle it well, Edo is good at it, but if you don’t handle it properly, Satsuma has to take the responsibility, so smart, and the Japanese people who heard it cursed.
This Edo shogunate is not a son of man!
It is clear that the Edo shogunate wants to kill someone with a knife, Shimadzu knows that things are extremely tricky.
agreed to Mingren’s request to return the five islands and pay 300,000 taels of silver, then he would not want to raise his head, I am afraid that disaster will not be far away.
dissatisfied his subordinates came to Keshang, or the Edo shogunate gave him a charge: mourning power and humiliating the country.
If you don’t agree to Mingren’s request, the opponent’s Red Maofan splint ship on the same water will run fast, and if you fight, you will have little chance of winning!
Even if he wins the fight, Shimadzu Tadashi still understands that the Ming people who visited this time in the Southeastern Mansion are strong and have the power to fight again. If they are entangled, it is the Satsuma clan who is unlucky.
If the battle is already defeated, it is exactly what the Edo shogunate meant.
or "avoid"?
The thought of passed quickly. If the Mingren were to block trade, the Edo side would still find an excuse to deal with the Satsuma clan.
He was indignant in his heart: The attack on Ryukyu originally came under Tokugawa Ieyasu's instruction, otherwise Ryukyu is under the name of "Da Ming", how can a Satsuma clan take the responsibility of provoking foreign provocations!
I hit the child, and now the parents come to the house, the Edo Shogunate actually refuses to admit it!
After thinking about it, it was actually just a short moment, he waved his hand and said, "It's all gone, Nishigo Wakasugi and Takeshita Masahiko (another family elder) stay!"
……
"What do you two think should I do?" Shimadzu Tadao asked for advice.
"You have to fight!" The two elders said in unison. They are both older generations. They have experienced many things and have plans.
Xixiang Ruosugi calmly said: "If you don't fight and pay for the silver, Satsuma clan will stop!"
Masahiko Takeshita analyzed: "If our side wins, we will be in an advantageous position when negotiating with Akira. If we defeat it... we can also account for it."
He faintly said, everyone nodded knowingly: "We are all defeated, and we have tried our best. No matter what happens, we can't be blamed."
Since everyone blames us, let's push it together!
There is no doubt that it will be hit, is it real or fake?
"Don't be confused, go all out!" Takeshita Masahiko saw Shimadzu's hesitation.
"Okay, but what should I do to deal with Akira?" Shimazu asked Tadao.
So the two elders each took a pen and paper, wrote on the left palm, and they showed up together, coincidentally: "Fire!"
Shimazu Tadashi was overjoyed and said: "The heroes see the same thing! If the Three Kingdoms Chibi incident can be repeated, the two elders will be my Zhuge Liang!"
The Three Kingdoms matter, many Japanese people have studied, and even the novel "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" (appearing at the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty) was popular in the country of Japan, and there were many book-seekers.
His eyes saw the flag blowing outside the pavilion to show the direction of the wind, and he muttered: "The place where the Mingren fleet is anchored is not as high as the tide, and the wind direction is southeast, which is not conducive to the fire, unless our ships move to the east of Mingren... "
"I see the sky, three days later, there will be a north wind coming!" Xixiang Ruoshan is quite sure.
He lives here and pays attention to collecting various data: hydrological wind direction, changes in stars, the arrival of birds, farming seasons, etc., even the daily eruption of Sakurajima volcano has been recorded, and over the years, it has been rich in data.
Masahiko Takeshita smiled and said, "It seems that we have to build an altar of seven stars so that you Zhuge Liang will come to worship the wind!"
"It's just that Mingren asked for a reply within one day~www.wuxiaspot.com~What should I do?" Shimadzu said.
"Diduo told the Edo side that the matter was not easy to decide. They did not reply, so please let me know that you can give me a week of grace!" Takeshita Masahiko gave an idea.
So the calculations have been decided, Shimadzu Tadashi summoned the generals to prepare the fire, oil, and sulfur ships without mentioning it.
……
Moreover, the official Hong Xi’s residence in the city is the "cherry house" where Japanese people receive distinguished guests. It is filled with cherry blossoms. It is in bloom. The cherry blossoms are in full bloom. The tree's red buds, red petals, pink stamens, like a sky full of clouds. , A splendid!
The scenery is good, and Hong Xiguan is in a good mood.
In the military, he is not worried at all. He has a great chance of winning. In case of defeat, as Yan Changwu said: "We are still young and we still have a chance!"
Wo people take care of him in every possible way. They live in the place where the scenery is, eat white rice, mutton and local specialties from the sea. All the beauties who serve him are from the country of Japan!
The four maids were young and beautiful, and served him meticulously. . . When he goes to take a bath, they want to come too!
The Japanese thinking is different. We require the heirs to have their own blood, and even the adopted sons of no blood can rise to the throne. Those Japanese women want to keep the seed of the official Hong Xi and be adopted by the leader as adopted children. Hong Xiguan's fine bloodline will be better than others in the future (probably), and he will have a chance to rise to the throne!
ah ah, then thank you for being insensitive!
It is a pity that Hong Xiguan knows discipline. He is an envoy and must not eat the enemy's sugar-coated cannonballs. After eating the sugar-coated and throwing the shell back, the warlord can do it. He can't do it so coolly, so he has to "thank you"!
He replied to the widow and took the boat back to report, and he continued to wait.
Three days later, what was waiting was the rumbling of overseas guns!
