"Sycophants, you don't have to shoot it. www.biquge.info"Zhu Cihong also felt embarrassed: "You Zheng Sen's ability, I also take a fancy to it." Being able to shelter tens of thousands of hometowns from thieves is what a good man does. It's a pity that you were born into such a family...... It's something that can't be chosen. ”

"Your Majesty, don't offend the relatives of the Han family, the students are already grateful to Dade, and they don't dare to ask for extravagance." Zheng Sen said.

Zhu Cihong squinted his eyes and suddenly said, "In any case, from today onwards, this can be regarded as a new page." Everything in the past is a thing of the past. Think no more. In that case, I also thought about it, and planned to give you a new name, which is Zheng Chenggong, how about it? ”

"Minister, thank you, Your Majesty!" Zheng Sen, oh no, now I have to call Zheng Chenggong.

Zheng Chenggong immediately understood Zhu Cihong's intentions.

Zheng Zhilong will not hide the fact that he is a traitor, and he will soon find out. Not to mention anything else, the person who carried out the specific execution was Zheng Cai, an important figure in the Zheng family. ran away with a big monk, and many small monks were also guilty. They certainly won't fail to catch.

Zheng Sen is innocent, and even his family business has been sacrificed, but there must be people who fall into the well, and there are also people who point fingers.

If Zhu Cihong wants to say that he is defending Zheng Sen, he will never do it, which is completely contrary to legal principles. But to say that he can't sit and see it, Zhu Cihong can't bear it.

At this time, a name is tantamount to giving Zheng Sen a new life.

Zheng Sen, who used to be the son of a traitor, has passed, and now he is alive with a new Zheng Chenggong. A Zheng Chenggong who is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, loyal to Zhu Cihong, and fights for the cause of the empire's territorial expansion!

And this Zheng Chenggong, with the name of a royal gift, will never be pointed at by anyone.

This is an honor, and it seems to be a reward for Zheng Chenggong for handing over the Zheng family business.

Zheng Chenggong was very satisfied with this, and Zhu Cihong also breathed a sigh of relief.

Zheng's matter has finally been resolved.

Chinese sons and daughters don't have to be trapped in internal friction and quarrel with each other.

Things in the Ryukyus were simple, and Sanghyun held a grand ceremony to welcome the arrival of His Majesty the Emperor. As for the evacuation of the Japanese from the Ryukyus, although it was a key point of the trip, it was quickly completed.

Whether it is the Ming Dynasty, the Ryukyus or the Japanese, there will be no shortage of ships to transport them.

In this way, the first Japanese troops left Japan under the carriage of Zheng's fleet.

Tadaya Maruhashi glanced at Amami Oshima with an infinitely complicated expression and sighed heavily. The samurai of the former Satsuma clan had to return to his former identity: a wandering samurai.

That's right, he was originally a wandering samurai.

It was just by chance that he joined the Chinese Foreign Legion under the leadership of Yui Zhengxue. It's a pity that the Foreign Legion rarely had a chance to perform after fighting the Korean War.

However, because of his qualifications as a Chinese soldier, Maruhashi Tadaya was given an opportunity that made him very happy: to join the samurai regiment of the Satsuma Domain.

Eventually, he was stationed in the Ryukyus as part of the elite army of the Satsuma Domain in preparation for the upcoming war.

But......

The war that was expected to be successful and ambitious did not break out, but ushered in a nightmare news for everyone.

Evacuation of the Ryukyus ......

Not only that, but a dark cloud hanging over everyone's sky made them feel depressed.

The prefect from the headquarters of the Satsuma Domain made a sad announcement that they were going to dismiss half of the samurai.

Immediately afterwards, before anyone could react, Maruhashi Tadaya got a severance pay, only one or two pieces of silver.

Soon, Tadaya Maruhashi understood the reason for everything.

The Japanese were all evacuated from the Ryukyus.

They gave up on this place completely.

Even the governors of the various islands, and even the tens of thousands of people of the Satsuma clan themselves had to be relocated back to the main island, not to mention Maruhashi Tadaya, an outsider who was not originally from Kagoshima?

Disarmament happened so unexpectedly, and it was not up to Maruhashi Tadaya to resist.

"I'm going to be a wandering samurai again......" Maruhashi Tadaya smiled bitterly and muttered, "It's just that I don't know what happened to those two guys, Yui Masayuki and Kanai Hanbei......"

As he spoke, Maruhashi Tadaya couldn't help but recall the sun and moon when they were together in Edo.

In particular, Masayuki Yui, a well-known Japanese military scholar of the Kusunoki School, has always wanted to solve the problem of Japan's wandering samurai. Later, they did get a golden opportunity, when a Ming envoy who secretly arrived in Japan took a group of Japanese samurai with them and joined the war against Korea.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, it did give many Japanese samurai who wanted to make contributions a chance to turn over.

But now, Maruhashi Tadaya is separated from his two best friends, and the ending is so disparity.

"Those two guys, I'm afraid they have already become officers in the Ming Army. The life of the Ming Kingdom is getting better and better, and later the Jiannu was leveled, how many opportunities for military exploits, maybe he has become a general. Instead, I'm ...... He became a wandering samurai again. Maruhashi Tadaya sighed at the change of fate, but he still struggled with fate, so he had no choice but to board the ship back to Japan.

Most of the people on board were known samurai. They were originally the elite samurai of the Satsuma Domain, and after decades of martial arts training, they possessed combat skills that could be used as ten. However, under such a tide, they still could not resist.

The Satsuma Domain was originally a financially weak place, otherwise it would not have developed the Ryukyu land.

But now, the Ryukyus were forced to evacuate, not only losing hundreds of thousands of koku per year, but also huge military expenses. Disarmament is imperative...... As for the wandering samurai, this problem, which had been calmed down a little, has become serious again.

Maruhashi Tadaya thought about things in his heart, and quietly looked at the people on the boat.

Most of them were full of sleepy faces, some yelling, some resolutely staying, and some shouting generously, trying to unite them poor children who were kneaded under the tide of fate.

But soon, the accompanying Ming soldiers called them to be people with the butts of their guns: "What are you calling? Let's be honest! ”

"Maruhashi-san, don't you have anything to say?" Someone shouted out Maruhashi Tadaya.

Maruhashi Tadaya looked over and recognized that it was a native of Nagasaki, known as Nanchiro Ino.

No more famous than Maruhashi Tadaya, this Inochiro is obviously much lower in status, and his background is also very poor, looking at Maruqiao Tadaya at this moment, I hope that he has some profound insights and a panacea to solve the current problems.

"It's nothing more than continuing to be a wandering samurai, Shichiro, there are some things that mortals can't resist. Maybe that's what God has arranged, and we are powerless to resist. Maruhashi Tadaya said.

Zhu Qilang's young face turned red: "However, if you haven't worked hard, how can you know what the result is?" I know that Maruhashi-san is a capable person, so please lead us out of the predicament together! ”

"...... effort?" Maruhashi Tadaya remembered the resolute determination when Masayuki led them out of Japan in the first place. At that time, to be a mercenary of the Ming people was not something that every wandering samurai had the courage to do.

But they fought hard and worked hard. In fact, they have solved the problem one after another. It's a pity that only Maruhashi Tadaya stumbled and became a wandering samurai again.

"But if the direction is wrong, then no matter how hard you try, it won't help. That's what Japan looks like. Three years ago, I had thought about how I could resist fate's arrangement for us wandering samurai. We struggled, set foot on the other side of the ocean, and fought for good treatment. Become a professional soldier who has a good life. But...... I turned out to be back again. And the country of Japan ...... It was too difficult to become a full-fledged samurai. "It's a bit like an establishment, the money and food of each daimyo and the shogunate itself are limited, and the number of full-time samurai who can support them is naturally limited.

However, the number of young people who practiced martial arts in various dojos every year, and the number of former samurai who were abandoned by the daimyo increased dramatically every year, quickly exceeding the total number of samurai in Japan.

At this time, the problem of wandering samurai is getting more and more serious.

Trying to break free from such a predicament, in the eyes of Maruhashi Tadaya, it is too much of an extravagance.

"Really...... Is there no way? Zhu Qilang's eyes turned red all of a sudden: "Sister, I'm sorry for you...... My brother still can't take you to the doctor this year. Perhaps, the only thing I can do is to spend the last years with you quietly. ”

Listening to Inoqiro's words, the dusty things in Maruhashi Tadaya's heart seemed to be broken all at once, and he exhaled softly, a little unable to suppress his concern: "You...... And a sister? ”

"She had a strange illness and went to the best doctor in Nagasaki but there was no way. It was also a doctor who told me that the Jingshi of the Ming Kingdom has the best doctors in the world. I want money...... A lot of money, so that my sister can have the opportunity to go to Mingguo to see a doctor. But...... If I can't find a samurai job, what else can I do for my sister...... Earn money? Nanaro said, choking up gradually.

"Everyone has something they want to protect in their hearts." Maruhashi Tadaya had to admit that he was moved: "Maybe, you are right. ”

"Maruhashi-san......?" Nanaro Inochiro looked up.

"It's time to work hard. I...... I have two best friends in Mingguo, and I think I can try to recommend you to the past. If you can join the Foreign Legion of the Ming Kingdom, you don't have to worry about the travel expenses to the Ming Kingdom. As a military dependent, your sister has family visit benefits, and the army will provide subsidies that are enough for you to take your sister over. ”

"Is it true? Maruhashi-san, I don't know how to thank you......" Shichiro Inochiro was very excited.

"No need to thank me...... After all, those guys used to be the ones who kept saying that they wanted to go down in history and make a career...... A bunch of guys who sell their reputations. I shouldn't have a problem asking for it with my face. Saying that, Maruhashi Tadaya smiled bitterly: "Unexpectedly, in the end, those two guys did the right thing." Or Yui Masayuki and his little tail...... It's done right. ”

Tadayo Maruhashi arrived at Kagoshima Port on a leisurely boat.

Compared to Kagoshima before I left, I returned to Kagoshima, but I found that it was more prosperous than before.

It has been decided to become the Sino-Japanese Free Trade Zone in the city, and the influx of merchants from various cities has brought prosperous business opportunities.

If it weren't for the fact that these guys were just a bunch of samurai who could only kill, I'm afraid they would soon be able to find new jobs. Merely...... For most samurai, it was a great shame to lose their status as samurai and become slaves of merchants.

On the contrary, those ashigaru, or the people who were requisitioned from all over the country, did not care about this, and were able to adapt quickly.

Maruhashi Tadaya looked at the Satsuma Domain, which was gradually becoming unfamiliar, and a sense of alienation came to his face: "This place does not belong to me......"

At this time, another group of wandering samurai who have been re-reduced to wandering samurai come to find Maruhashi Tadaya for help.

They don't even have the most basic place to live......

Looking at the group's stunned expressions, Maruhashi Tadaya couldn't bear to refuse: "So...... Let's go to Edo. ”

There is also a house left behind by Yui Masayuki, which became a gift from Masayuki after Maruhashi Tadaya left North Korea. At least, they don't have to sleep on the streets there.

It's ridiculous to stand up, but it's a cruel thing that has already happened.

Having exhausted their last savings, they set off for Edo.

Compared to the changing days and stars of Kagoshima Port, Edo seems to have frozen, and nothing has changed.

Of course, Maruhashi Tadaya also took advantage of this convenience to find the dojo in his memory. That's where Masayuki used to lecture back then, and as a military scholar of the Nanmu School, there is no dojo that can't do it.

"Squeak......" Maruhashi Tadaya pushed over, only to find that the door was hidden and turned out to be open.

That means there's someone inside!

Maruhashi Tadaya believes that no one will ever have the key to this place again, could it be that he has entered the bandits?

"There's a problem!" Maruhashi Tadaya immediately clenched the katana, and the wandering samurai behind him had nothing else, but his martial arts and vigilance were full. Especially Pig Qilang, who wanted to show his face to repay Maruhashi Tadaya's kindness, immediately followed the knife and guarded.

"It's Maruhashi-sama!" An old servant looked at Maruhashi Tadaya and was elated, and as he opened the door, he shouted into the door, "Yui-sama, Maruhashi-sama is back." Maruhashi-sama is back! ”

"What? Is the snow there too? Maruhashi Tadaya was stunned, but soon it was a surprise.

What a joy it is to meet again after a long absence, and to see old friends?

After a few years, many friends have died on the battlefield and will never see each other again. No matter who is right and who is wrong in the debate, at this moment, that sincere friendship touches everyone.

Maruhashi Tadaya rushed in and saw Masayuki Yui and Hanbei Kanai running in stride.

Yui Zhengxue still looks like that, wearing a straight and improved Hanfu, fixing the unified board in the Ming army, with the breath of wisdom, and said with a smile: "Maruhashi, you guy." Finally back, home! ”
