vs 1340 Flattering each other
"Hahaha, His Royal Highness Jiagang, this king finally saw you, it is really a tiger father without a dog!" Yan Changwu laughed heartily.
"Uncle is on top, uncle has traveled thousands of miles across the sea to help, and Jiagang can't thank you enough!" Speaking of which, the Tokugawa Ietsuna bowed 90 degrees, more respectful than Lao Tzu, and behind him was a slippery widow bowing, with his head down to the ground!
As the shogun who held the power of the Wa Kingdom, Tokugawa Ietsuna had a noble status, and even the Wa Emperor was only a slight bow in front of him, and Yan Changwu was the only person in the whole world who could make Tokugawa Ietsuna pay such a big tribute.
was his "uncle" on the left and "uncle" on the right, Yan Changwu's capillaries stood up all over his body, but he couldn't make any traces, so he could only force a smile.
The Japanese people were all bowing, and the expressions they didn't see, Yang Tiansheng, the head of the camp who felt his muscles stiff slightly behind him, secretly snickered in his heart, thinking that the king of the southeast was really hypocritical enough, but fortunately he didn't take out a handkerchief to wipe off the hand that had been touched by the Tokugawa ietsuna!
Like the daimyo of the Shogunate, the shogunate set up tents on the seashore to warmly welcome the Ming army who came from afar.
The high-level officials of the shogunate, their mood is completely different from that of the fallen shogunate, this time it's okay, the sky is clear, the king of the southeast is coming to help, we are saved!
Seeing that the Ming army came to reinforce the troops, the elite soldiers were strong, and in front of the Japanese people, they were like heavenly soldiers and generals--- one head taller than the Japanese people, not only strong, but also very fierce, obviously all the people who came were hard stubble, and they were by no means broilers.
Seeing the steady stream of landing troops around the tent, the soldiers of the shogunate were overjoyed and happy to the point of excitement, and some of them were even more glad that they had persevered to the end and did not become deserters!
The Battle of Edo was not easy, and it was the first time to set a new record in the history of the Wakoku War: the largest number of troops ever used in recorded history.
Out of fear of the reinforcements of the Ming Kingdom, on the way to Edo, the Fallen Shogunate Army made a big move, capturing strong men to enrich their ranks, causing ten rooms and nine emptiness, and the people's resentment boiled and their reputation was discredited.
The effect was still obvious, the number of troops was so large that they ran out of ammunition for the Shogunate's Edo defenders, and there was a lot of ammunition stored in Edo Castle, but what I never expected was that there were more enemies coming.
These ammunition and melee combat killed more than 100,000 fallen shogunate troops in total, plus more than 30,000 killed by the shogunate army, and created a record for the most Japanese killed in a major battle.
Not only that, but this is the number of deaths in battle, and if you add the miscellaneous non-combat attrition of the people who died of starvation, those who were killed during conscription, those who died of disease, those who died of drowning, and so on, this number may be in the direction of 200,000.
With so many people dead, there is a third new record: the intensity of the battle is unprecedented.
In the past, with cold weapons, even the most powerful 10,000 enemies were not as powerful as one artillery, in fact, many artillery pieces became "meritorious artillery", and they killed enough Japanese people.
A shotgun loaded with 100 projectiles shoots 10 rounds, which is a terrifying existence like a meat grinder for those Japanese people whose defense is equal to zero.
In the face of such a large-scale and unprecedentedly fierce battle, in the face of such a powerful enemy, many shogunate troops had wavered in their minds, wanted to surrender, wanted to escape, and were afraid of death.
The two highnesses, one large and one small, sat down in the cloth tent, which was a bit shabby, and it was only made of oilcloth, but it was an ordinary marching tent, so the Tokugawa Ietsuna said that he was lazy.
The shogun naturally had a fine cloth curtain, but he was lost in Edo Castle and was not brought out, so it should have been burned.
The general of the shogunate army, Masayuki Hoshina, was scheming and knew that as long as the shogun survived, he would have everything, so when he evacuated from Edo Castle, he was light and did not bring extra supplies with him, so as to speed up his escape.
The two sides started talks, first introduced their respective attachés, and Yan Changwu said: "Yang Gong was born, a lonely entourage minister, and the head of the camp. ”
Yang Tiansheng was outstanding, greeting all the Japanese people with a smile on his face, he was proficient in Japanese language, but he did not have to use Japanese language, everyone communicated in Chinese without hindrance.
In the past, he went to the Japanese country to trade, he knew a lot of people, he was very good, he had a lot of friends in the Japanese country, and all the Japanese people were enthusiastic about each other, competing to greet him, he was all-round, and the courtesy was thorough.
Yang Tiansheng's appearance, the Japanese people were very determined, and they wanted to have the help of such a knowledgeable Japanese faction as him, and great things could be done.
Then there are generals such as Zhou Quanbin and Yan Dian, focusing on the four generals Li Dingguo, Sun Kewang, Liu Wenxiu, and Ai Nengqi, and listening to Yan Changwu say: "This is the four heavenly kings under the lone hand, which can be described as the four generals of the demon family." ”
Tokugawa Ietsuna was able to blurt out: "Morei Qing, Morehai Sea, Morei Red, Morei Shou!" ”
Aha, the penetration of Chinese culture into the Wa Kingdom has reached the upper class of people who are well-known, and the lower class of people are yearning, and the four demons with great powers come from "Journey to the West" and "Romance of the Gods", the two books were formed in the Ming Dynasty and spread to the Wa Kingdom, and were immediately widely pursued as valuable spiritual food, and the Japanese merchants shamelessly reprinted it many times, and did not give copyright fees......
Tokugawa Ietsuna asked Masayuki Hoshina to explain the course of the defense of Edo, and when he heard that it was so fierce and that there were so many Japanese people who died, Yan Changwu secretly applauded in his heart!
The saliva did not cost money, and he praised enthusiastically: "Zhuang, even the war in my China is not as magnificent as the battle of Edo, the great general strategizes and wins the victory on the battlefield, and the officers and men of your army are united and bravely break the enemy......
did not hesitate to praise the words, listening to the fluttering and triumphant people, many people were so excited that their faces were red, even Bao Ke Zhengzhi was an exception, and he didn't notice that Yang Tiansheng wanted to laugh and forcibly held back and endured it very uncomfortable!
Some Japanese people do have Taoism, they are not so shallow, but it depends on who is speaking, this is the southeast king of the Ming Dynasty, the king of the southeast country, with an unprecedented territory of two China in power, he is a recreation of China on land, playing a Chinese god of war on the sea!
What others say doesn't count, what he said is the golden rule, for example, he praised Bao Ke Masayuki for his command and proper strategy, which can be called "Today's Liang", which is the meaning of today's Zhuge Liang, which is a great reputation, which makes Bao Ke Masayuki laugh so much that he can't close his mouth.
Yan Changwu praised the generals one by one, and the generals who were pointed out held their heads high and were very proud!
This is the king of the southeast, the god of war of the Ming Dynasty, and since then the generals have become famous, no problem.
Tokugawa Ietsuna came to thank another wave, in addition to thanking the Ming army for coming to help, but also thanking the Ming Dynasty for assisting the shogunate in handling various affairs, he said very well, Yan Changwu and Yang Tiansheng understood very well, it turned out that the shogunate deposited 30 million silver dollars in the branch of the Ming National Export-Import Bank in the country, which was very convenient to use and safe!
A penny is difficult to defeat a hero, no one will pay attention to you without money, in troubled times, Tokugawa Ietsuna can no longer trust his subjects and army, so he simply deposited the money in the Daming Bank, relative to others, at least, before the complete defeat of Tokugawa Ietsuna, this money is still safe!
Naturally, Yan Changwu expressed his modesty and thanked Tokugawa Ietsuna for his support, he said vaguely, and the upper echelons of the shogunate were also very happy, because those daimyo and high-ranking officials also deposited their own money into the Daming Bank!
It's funny enough, the wealth of the Japanese country is put into the bank of another country, and the Japanese people can rest assured.
Everyone praised each other, and after blowing until each other's faces were polished, they finally talked about military affairs and how the two armies cooperated, Yan Changwu smiled slightly: "This king asserts that thieves will march, then our army can do it according to this plan." ”
"Will the plan be released?" The crowd hurriedly asked.
"You can be a pioneer, our army will answer, and we will break the thief army!" Yan Changwu said hesitantly, thinking that history was reinterpreted, he became a Tatar, the shogunate army became Wu Sangui, and the fallen shogunate army was Li Zicheng, ready to fight on a stone!
