Chapter 169: Moody Zhu Yuanzhang

Xu Guan returned from the Wa Kingdom and brought a lot of important news, which made the Ming Dynasty monarchs and ministers refreshed...... As early as the end of the Yuan Dynasty, there were Japanese robbers on the southeast coast, harassing and killing everywhere.

The sea frontier was restless, and Zhu Yuanzhang was overwhelmed, so as early as the second year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang sent a messenger and sent an edict to the Japanese state: "The intermediary Shandong comes to play, and the Japanese soldiers count the seaside, give birth to and leave people's wives, and damage their lives." Therefore, the book is specially reported on orthodox matters, and it is also the reason for the Japanese soldiers to cross the sea. When the edict arrives, such as the minister, he will come to the court; If you don't surrender, you will repair the army and consolidate yourself, and you will always be in peace with the land, so as to respond to the rest of the day. ”

Lao Zhu's meaning is very clear, that is, let the Wa State quickly restrain the people, not to intrude on the Ming Dynasty, and pay tribute to be a vassal, otherwise they will suffer the monstrous wrath of the Ming Dynasty!

The envoy took Lao Zhu's will and went to the Wa Kingdom, but as soon as he arrived in the Wa Kingdom, he hit a big nail!

The main and deputy envoys were all arrested and locked up for several months, not to mention, and five followers were cut down!

The first time the Ming Dynasty went to the Wa Kingdom, he touched a nose of ashes.

It turned out afterwards that both sides had made mistakes.

At this time, the Wa Kingdom was in the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, with constant wars and inaccessibility, and they did not know that the Yuan Dynasty had fallen. also regarded the envoys of the Ming Dynasty as people of the Yuan Dynasty, and the Wa Kingdom consciously protected the body of the gods and did not care about the Ming Dynasty at all, so there was a matter of imprisoning the envoys and beheading the entourage.

Daming's side, in fact, didn't understand, the envoy was according to the original route to the Japanese country, the result was landing on Kyushu Island, and met Prince Huailiang, this is not the king at all, and this guy is still a stunned young man, Zhu Yuanzhang threatened to send troops to the Japanese country, he really planned to fight hard and prepare for the enemy.

Later, Lao Zhu sent envoys several times, and he was also ready to send troops, all because the sea risk was too great, and he did not launch rashly, and the main threat of the Ming Dynasty was still the north, Lao Zhu organized several northern expeditions one after another, until the fishing sea war, Lan Yu wiped out the Northern Yuan, and eliminated the big trouble.

Da Ming was finally able to free up his hands and began to solve the disease of scabies.

At this time, the situation of the Wa Kingdom also changed, Prince Kaira had long since died, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's Muromachi Shogunate had an absolute advantage, and the war between the Northern and Southern Dynasties of the Wa Kingdom was coming to an end.

This creates an ironic situation...... In the past, the Ming Dynasty was bent on seeking peace, hoping that the Japanese State could restrain its own people, as long as it did not disturb the sea frontier, the Ming Dynasty was satisfied. However, the chaotic situation of the Japanese kingdom made them miss a good opportunity.

Now after the unification, the Muromachi shogunate suddenly found that he was about to face the wrath of a behemoth that he could not afford to offend. Those who were bent on seeking peace became the Wa Kingdom.

This is the situation that Xu Guan encountered when he went to the Wa Kingdom.

It is not surprising that he is too a student to enjoy the hospitality of the gods of the Japanese Kingdom.

"Lord Liu, I can see that the Wa State really wants to pay tribute, after all, the Wa State is poor and weak, the property is scarce, and after the Great War between the North and the South, the people's livelihood has withered to the extreme, and it urgently needs trade to improve the situation. And they are also worried that the Ming Dynasty will raise troops to ask for guilt. In addition, there is another point, although the Japanese state is unified, I am afraid that the Japanese rebellion in the sea will continue, and it will become more and more intense! ”

Zhu Hu was puzzled, "What's going on, it's unified, it shouldn't be peaceful, why are you still running to make trouble!" ”

Xu Guan said: "Your Highness doesn't know, on the defeated side of the Japanese Kingdom, there are also many warriors, their land has been deprived, they have lost their foundation, and they have become wandering warriors. ”

Zhu Huan was angry when he heard this, "This Japanese country is simply a source of chaos, they are behind closed doors, they can fight as much as they want, why should they harm others, it is simply unreasonable!" ”

Liu Chun shrugged his shoulders, what can be done, in more than a hundred years, the Muromachi Shogunate will be killed, the Wa Kingdom will enter the Warring States Period, and there will be a larger scale of Wako waiting!

"Your Highness, Lord Liu, in my opinion, even if you accept the tribute of the Japanese State, the coastal rebellion will continue, and the imperial court has to guard against it!"

Liu Chun nodded, and he suddenly smiled slightly, "Actually, maybe there is a way to solve the rebellion as soon as possible...... You might even make a fortune! ”

Zhu Huan is most interested in making money printing books now, and as soon as he heard that there was money to be made, he immediately came to his senses, "Liu Chun, what are you going to do?" ”

"Hahaha, Your Highness, don't be impatient! I'm going to invite the envoys of the Wa Kingdom to watch two good shows! ”

……

Hosokawa Nakao is the envoy of the Wa Kingdom who was ordered to come this time, he is the head of the Muromachi shogunate, and he is the deputy of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, both in power and status, he is quite good.

Being able to send him here also shows the desire of the Japanese country to seek peace.

If it is replaced by other officials, the country of the Japanese country sincerely pays tribute and is called a minister, everything is easy to talk about, maybe you can get several times more rewards, and return to China in a chic way to show off, saying that Da Ming is a stupid hat, how easy it is to deceive!

But with Liu Chun here, such a good thing will never happen.

He took Zhu Hu and Xu Guan and came directly to the pavilion.

After the two sides met, Hosokawa Nakao was extremely humble, a man in his fifties, his waist was bent at 90 degrees, and he kept "hi, hi, hi", Xu Guan was indeed a genius, and he went to the Wa Kingdom for a few months, and he was able to understand the language of the Wa Kingdom.

Hosokawa means that after seeing the Ming Dynasty's Wufu Minfeng, the territory is vast, and the Wa Kingdom is willing to sincerely surrender, pay tribute, and wish the Ming Emperor a long life...... All in all, it's all good.

Seeing him so well-behaved, Zhu Hu almost agreed.

Fortunately, he still remembered that Liu Chun was responsible for this matter, and he didn't dare to speak casually.

"Your envoy doesn't have to be so polite, since you have arrived in the Ming Dynasty, and the kingdom is a state of etiquette, how can you treat your guests slowly! Come, prepare the carriage, I will accompany the Hosokawa envoy to the barracks to have a look! ”

Zhu Hu almost laughed, what?

Didn't you say you were going to entertain VIPs? I thought I was going to the Qinhuai River! What are you going to do in the barracks?

Zhu Hu was confused, but Xu Guan seemed to have an understanding. He took this trip, which is better than ten years of study. He had some understanding of the temperament of the Japanese people.

These guys, who are afraid of power and don't know Huaide, no matter how much they tell them, they are not as useful as showing their swords!

It's just that what surprised Xu Guan was that Liu Chun knew the character of the Japanese people at a young age, it was really evil!

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

In the barracks, dust was flying, and war horses neighed.

Zhu Di was dressed in armor, holding a sword, and raised his eyebrows. Zhu Neng suddenly ran over, "Lord Wang, Brother Liu is here!" ”

Zhu Di let out a long breath, grandma's, a dignified prince, actually wants to condescend to the dignity and act for that kid, if this is spread, those brothers must not be laughed at...... But it's nothing, you can make money, you can pacify the sea frontier, Dad will only be happy!

Thinking of this, Zhu Di urged his horse violently and rushed to the front of the soldiers.

"Brethren! I hit the remnants of the Yuan in the north of the Ming Dynasty and captured the emperor of the previous dynasty, and the former Great Yuan is gone! ”

"Mighty! Mighty! ”

Zhu Neng took the lead and shouted.

When the voice stopped, Zhu Di said again: "How powerful the Yuan Dynasty is, millions of iron horses, it is not in the eyes of my Ming Dynasty." Now there is a small country in Yuer, which has repeatedly violated the maritime frontier, killed my people, plundered my property, and ruined my lives...... Brethren, what do you say? ”

"Kill!"

"Kill all the pirates!"

"Slaughter all the Japanese islands, and leave no one behind!"

……

Zhu Di was very satisfied, and waved the sword in his hand, "From now on, I will train in riding and archery every day, just wait for the will to come down, and immediately send troops!" ”

As soon as the words fell, all the soldiers moved when they heard the wind, galloping and archery on the school field, posing in various formations, and practicing so hotly that it was in full swing.

And just outside the barracks, an even more startling scene happened, and many horse-drawn carriages entered the barracks...... In the car, it was all loaded with fine iron ingots.

Heavy cargo, pressed out of deep ruts.

Hosokawa Nakao was dumbfounded, the number of carriages seemed to be endless, how much iron was this! Piled together, I'm afraid it's the size of a mountain!

"Hosokawa envoy, what do you think of my Ming army?"

"This ...... The magnanimity of the kingdom is naturally extraordinary, and the country is ashamed! ”

"Don't be so modest!" Liu Chun said with a smile: "Our country is surrounded by the sea on all sides, and the previous dynasty attacked twice in vain, but you still have some hope." Liu Chun said again: "Would you like to follow me to the shipyard...... By the way, these iron ingots were brought from the docks, and there are many miles, all of which are used to craft weapons and armor! ”

Hosokawa Nakao's old face keeps getting longer, and he doesn't even know which leg to take!

If gathering people is nothing, how can so many fine iron be explained? Liu Chun is also very generous, let him check it, is it good iron?

Hosokawa is not a fool, and the Wa Kingdom may not be able to refine such a good iron, but this amount is too scary, right?

If you exhaust the financial resources of the Japanese country, you may not be able to refine one-tenth!

Is this Daming's big deal?

It's so desperate!

"Please, the shipyard is also working day and night, but it's lively!"

Liu Chun pulled Hosokawa, got into the carriage, and went straight out of the city...... He didn't know that his actions were all under Lao Zhu's attention!

Compared with before, after meeting, Zhu Yuanzhang can be angry, this time there is no need to meet, it will make Lao Zhu's face black!

"When did I say that I was going to fight the Japanese Kingdom? Military affairs, he is a little rabbit cub, does he dare to make decisions for me? And King Yan, why are you messing around with him? I don't know any rules, what a disappointment for me! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was in the main hall, roaring non-stop, and the echo shook his ears.

The commander of the Jinyi guard made Jiang Xuan bow his head and stand, and said in horror: "Your Majesty, do you want to tell His Royal Highness the King of Qin in the shipyard and ask him not to cooperate with Liu Chun to act?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang stopped suddenly, turned his head to look at Jiang Xuan, and was so frightened that Jiang Xuan trembled, and before he could speak, Lao Zhu was so angry that he came at him!

"What do you say? What to tell King Qin? Don't you dare to show it to the envoys of the Wa Kingdom? Am I afraid of the Wa Kingdom? They have been attacking the sea frontier for decades, and I not only want to scare them, but also fight, fight hard! As the commander of the Jinyi Guard, you came here, do you want to tell the truth, or do you want to frame Zhongliang? ”

Jiang Xuan's eyes were straight...... How did you say that, how did that kid become loyal? Can anyone tell me if Your Majesty is old and confused?
