335 Persecution
Shang Zhong, as a special envoy who secretly contacted Hong Tang, has been following Wu Daofu and them these days. His mission as an envoy, in addition to Hong Tang, also took King Shangning to secretly monitor Hong Tang's actions and report the important task of the war to King Shangning at any time.
When Wu Daofu and the Japanese fleet tested each other before, Shang Zhongxin was quite excited, as long as this Hongtang fought with the Japanese people, then he could be regarded as letting go of a stone in his heart.
In order to ensure that this war can be won in the end, King Shangning gave Wu Daofu two important weights in his hand in advance, and after obtaining this part of the benefits, plus the deposit given to Li Tianyang before, to be honest, if Wu Daofu and they leave at this time, it will be regarded as a small profit, so Shang Zhong, the secret envoy, is still quite afraid that Wu Daofu and they will regret it at the last moment.
But when Wu Daofu found Shang Zhong and asked him for assistance, Shang Zhong was embarrassed. Indeed, as Wu Daofu guessed, although the king of Ryukyu Shangning tried his best and interests behind his back, asking Hongtang to send troops to attack the Japanese people in the Ryukyu Kingdom, but on the surface, King Shangning still did not dare to take it lightly, and he had always been tactful with the Japanese people, and never had the slightest neglect in front of the Japanese envoys, let alone showed any signs of tearing his face with Samosa, and he was quite deferential to the Japanese people.
If he assists Hongtang in launching an attack on Amami Oshima, then the Ryukyu royal family will also stand in the light from the shadows and turn against the Japanese people, which is a decision that King Shangning is not willing to make until the battle situation is clear.
"If your Ryukyu royal family doesn't fight and gives us the necessary assistance to Hongtang, then we have reason to suspect that the intentions behind you are not to blame us for not doing it when the time comes!" After all his efforts, this Shang Zhong was unwilling to make a promise, and as soon as Wu Daofu's temperament came up, he had a long attack on the spot.
"Don't don't, my big brother Wu, you have now become opponents with the Japanese people of Samoba, even if you don't trouble them in the future, then they will find your trouble, right?" When Shang Zhong heard Wu Daofu's words, his face turned a little pale, and he hurriedly grabbed Wu Daofu's hand and persuaded him: "You know, there is still an ocean-going fleet under your Qixintang to travel between the Wa Kingdom and the Ming Dynasty, don't you worry about the trouble of your fleet for a long time?" ”
"Are you threatening us?" Wu Daofu's already unsightly face, when he heard Shang Zhong's warning, he really had a little bit of bad intentions, and suddenly it darkened a little, and a thick killing intent suddenly enveloped Shang Zhong's already small cabin.
"Don't dare, don't dare, even if the lower officials have eight guts, they will never dare to have this idea! I just want to say that now we are all grasshoppers in the same boat, why should Commander Wu say such angry words? Shang Zhong can't, Wu Daofu's request is not something that he can decide by a secret envoy, so he can only take out the only chips in his hand to delay: "As for the cooperation action that Commander Wu said, please forgive the next official a few days, I will send someone back to report to my king, and there will be a reply tomorrow afternoon at the latest, how about it?" ”
"Okay, then I'll wait for your reply tomorrow!" Wu Daofu, who was still talking about the righteousness of the rivers and lakes, no longer felt guilty about the Ryukyu royal family at this time, and left with a blushing face, without stopping at all.
But in fact, in his heart, Wu Daofu also knew that this thing that Shang Zhong reminded him of was actually an important factor for Li Tianyang and them to agree to King Shang Ning's request.
Ocean trade has made a lot of profits, which is already a recognized fact of Li Tianyang's team, and it is precisely with the support of these two ocean-going fleets that Qixintang and Hongtang have been able to develop rapidly in recent years, and Li Tianyang and they can also have enough capital to vigorously develop Bengang and Jilong Port.
On impulse before, just thinking about practicing the combat power of Hongtang's recruits, Wu Daofu made the decision to fight at sea with the Japanese people. Although the result of the battle was gratifying, but in hindsight, the sequelae are not small, many pirates in the Japanese fleet are clear about the relationship between Hongtang and Qixintang, last time Guo Changsheng and their ocean-going fleet were able to come back safely, half because of the huge ocean, even if the Japanese people wanted to retaliate, it was not easy, and the other half was because Guo Changsheng and they heard the wind on the sea at that time, and carefully bypassed the waters of the five islands of Amami with a huge amount of money, so they returned safely.
But you can't expect such good luck in every ocean-going trade, even if an ocean-going trade fleet has some self-protection, it can't withstand the attacks of other paramilitary gangs!
Not to mention, in itself, Hongtang's ocean-going fleet is a piece of fat in the eyes of the pirates, who doesn't want to come up and bite a bite, as long as the Japanese people continue to speak, there must be pirates to report to the Japanese people, and then they can share some oil and water.
Therefore, no matter what, on the premise of not giving up this ocean-going trade object of the Japanese State, there are only two ways in front of Li Tianyang, one is to seek peace, and the other is to cut the grass. In the end, what Li Tianyang and the others chose was just a choice that was more beneficial to their team in their opinion.
Fortunately, the day has already set in the west, and this war can't be fought today, so Wu Daofu can also take this opportunity to go back and discuss with Xiao Xiurong and the others, and see if there are any other ways to weaken the Japanese alliance.
In this way, under the surveillance of the Japanese people, the next day Hongtang's fleet was quietly docked on the sea less than ten miles away from the five islands of Amami, and there was no movement at all.
At the same time, when the sun was setting, a speedboat from the south quietly sailed into Hongtang's fleet, and the messenger on board also brought a reply from King Shangning, who Shang Zhong and Wu Daofu had been waiting for.
"Our king has agreed to your request, Commander Wu, and we will requisition thirty fishing boats for you from among our Ryukyu people, and we will join us here in the next two days. It's just that my king hopes that Commander Wu can understand his difficulties and not exaggerate the relationship between my king and you Hongtang. From Shang Zhong's mouth, Wu Daofu got the answer he wanted, but to his surprise, this King Shangning still wanted to leave a way out at this moment: "These fishing boats and fishermen, my king has already issued a gag order, and they all came voluntarily to assist the righteous people in expelling the Japanese invaders, and they have nothing to do with my king." ”
"Okay, as long as your fishing boats are in place, we will also officially attack the Amami Wako, and as for the relationship between you and me, we will not spread it nonsense." Wu Daofu secretly scolded shamelessly, but there was an indifferent attitude on his lips. Although there is some surprise for King Shangning's behavior of covering his ears and stealing the bell, but if you think about it carefully, it can be regarded as excusable, this is the instinct of a weak country to survive!
