Chapter 169: Overlord of the Seven Seas

"Your Majesty, the canonization ship is luxuriously built, and the cost is quite lavish, but it is not worth it to canonize an inconsequential small overseas country! Your Majesty, if you have these money, it is better to use it for disaster relief, but you can live countless more people, and it is a matter of benefiting the people. ”

Yang Reform also glared dryly, the bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty also knew that they were "pragmatic", they had no money, and they didn't even want face, and they persuaded the emperor not to care about this matter, which was redundant.

"I know that if you don't have silver, you can make it simpler, but it really can't be done, so I will rent a merchant ship to get it, and this gift will be just picked up a few things from my palace and brought them over, these seven or eight years are too long, as the saying goes, people can't stand without faith, and the country will decline without trust, and I can't lose my trust in the lord of the Ryukyu Kingdom." Yang Gengai insisted on going to Ryukyu, this Ryukyu is a trade route! In the past, when playing the game of Great Voyage, there was a port called Naha in the Ryukyus, where you could trade, and in the future, your own navy and fleet would always go out, and this Ryukyu garrison could also be seen as a prelude to becoming a maritime hegemon. Yang Reform was suddenly ambitious, and he was ready to come to the Ming Dynasty to be a hegemon of the Seven Seas.

The ministers were not choked to death by the emperor's words, and it is understandable that it is simple to build, this kind of thinking will go over by renting a merchant ship, this kind of thinking is really too advanced, it is really too unexpected. However, the emperor's words are also reasonable, people cannot stand without faith, and the country will decline without trust. If this matter is not resolved, the more time passes, the more it proves the decay of the country. The ministers bowed their heads to digest the emperor's words.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks, or inappropriate, as far as the minister knows, this is not just a matter of canonizing the ship and rewarding, the minister talked to the envoy, the envoy talked about it, this Ryukyu country, many years ago, was harassed by the Japanese country, once the lord of the country, the sect were captured to the Japanese country, they came this time, there is also a meaning, that is, I hope that our dynasty will send troops, help them deal with the Japanese country, revenge for the destruction of the country, hope to get the protection of our dynasty, Your Majesty this see, once the canonization envoy is sent, it is necessary to take care of their mess again, think now, It is an eventful time for my dynasty, natural disasters are continuous, and I can't manage my own affairs, how can I still have the ability to take care of their affairs? Seeing that the emperor was very persistent, the minister finally explained the root of the matter.

Yang Reform was furious at the beginning, and then laughed wildly, and said secretly, God help me, it seems that I have already done something to the Ryukyu Kingdom, and I am lacking an excuse to use troops at sea, even a naval army, I have to borrow what to use in the name of recruiting global voyages, and now, I have an excuse to send troops at sea. That is, to protect the vassal states, and then garrison troops in the sweet potato countries, and then engage in maritime trade, haha, it won't be long before this realistic version of the "Overlord of the Seven Seas" of the Ming Dynasty will be his own. It's said that there is no video game addiction to otaku games.,I'm going to treat this Ming Dynasty as this game to operate.。

Yang Gai grabbed what he could grab and smashed it to the ground. "Bang", in the hall, there was no sound.

The ministers were shocked, they had never seen the emperor so "angry".

"Little ...... The Japanese people are too ...... to bully people, dare to challenge the power of my Ming Dynasty, dare to capture the lord of my Ming Dynasty's vassal country, the sect, deceive people too much, deceive people too much, shame and shame, shame and shame! This is to regard my Ming Dynasty as nothing! Use my face of the Ming Dynasty as a rag! This Wa Kingdom is really squatting on the head of my Ming Dynasty and......" Yang Gai pretended to be angry, not only smashed things, but also slapped the throne violently with his hands, that kind of angry situation is also terrifying.

The ministers looked at it, obediently, what happened to this emperor? After listening to what the emperor said, I realized that the emperor was angry that the Japanese people did not give face to the Ming Dynasty, and the Japanese people did not take the Ming Dynasty seriously, and felt that they were slapped in the face by the Japanese people.

"Your Majesty is angry, Your Majesty is angry......" The ministers once again used the big move "ae", and Yang Reform took advantage of the trend, so he adjusted the anger a little less.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I didn't plan to ask too much about this matter, but now, it's not like I'm going to give some silver and give some gifts, this involves the national body of my Ming Dynasty, the majesty, and the dignity of me. What kind of face does the Ming Dynasty have in this world? This little country has already slapped me in the face. "Yang Reform is a big rage.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he should indeed punish this Japanese people, thinking that this Japanese people, when I was in the Jiajing Dynasty, there were pirates who often invaded our maritime borders and killed our soldiers and civilians, and wanted to be in the Wanli Dynasty, but also plotted against our vassal country Korea, and even fought with our dynasty in Korea, this Japanese people, the minister thought that it was time to teach a lesson a long time ago, otherwise, sooner or later, it will definitely become a catastrophe!" As soon as the emperor said that he would punish the Ming Dynasty, someone immediately brought out the old things of the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, the minister is also in favor of sending troops to punish the Japanese country, thinking that this Japanese country really doesn't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, not only trying to get involved in Korea, but also occupying the Ryukyu country, this is all an insult to our dynasty, contempt for our dynasty! If our dynasty does not punish the Japanese kingdom, how will our dynasty survive in the world, how will it subdue other small countries, and will the heavenly kingdom be in the world? Although the Wa Kingdom was defeated by our dynasty in the Wanli Dynasty, it seems that now it is not dead hearted, and it may resurgce at any time, and it may come back at any time! Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he should send troops to Ryukyu to teach the Wa Kingdom a lesson. ”

Yang Reform is a little happy, this is called this, it seems, the damage to the Ming Dynasty is indeed quite big, this is said to be a book, there are actually many people who support this, this, if it is not for the fact that I have a blood feud with the scholars of the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that no one will say to fight the book.

"Your Majesty, this Japanese country, Taizu once said, but it is a country that is not conquered!" There are also ministers who jump out and use the ancestral teachings to talk about things.

Yang Gai didn't speak, and immediately someone came out to object: "The country that is not conquered, that is because they paid tribute to our dynasty, Taizu made a promise to them to 'share the blessing of peace', and now, they not only do not pay tribute to our dynasty, but also use swords against our country's vassal countries to destroy our vassal country, a few years ago, tens of thousands of people fought to the death with our Korean soldiers, trying to annex Korea, this couch, how can others be allowed to snore?" Who knows that they annexed North Korea, and the next target, not to use a knife against our North Korea? Is this what a country that does not conquer should do? Also, when he became an ancestor, he didn't use force against Annan, isn't this Annan obedient now? "This person looks relatively young, and what he says is a little angry, and it seems that he still has a bit of a blood surname.

However, these people who spoke for the emperor were all people standing behind. Those standing in the front row did not speak.

"Your Majesty, this Japanese country has used troops against our vassal countries without authorization, destroyed the country, and captured the lord of the country, which is indeed wrong and should indeed be punished, but the treasury of this court is now empty, and even if you want to send troops to Ryukyu, you don't have the financial resources! With this financial resources, it is better to provide more relief for some upcoming natural disasters. ”

Yang Gai saw clearly, the person who spoke was Bi Ziyan. As soon as he speaks, it must be a financial matter. Oh, yes! If you don't have money, you're ambitious, don't do anything, take care of your own family's affairs.

Yang's thoughts on reform drifted to the book. There is still a ruling class in this book, as the saying goes, there are three catties of nails in a rotten ship, and it is not impossible to scavenge a little oil and water from those ruling classes in this book, this book is said to be a large producer of silver, and the silver over there is many times cheaper than that in China, Yang Gai, who has read a lot of novels, remembers that there are several very large silver mines in that place, and if you get this place, you will make a fortune. This matter really has to be pondered.

"In this matter, it is better to call that envoy to ask about the actual situation, otherwise, we monarchs and ministers will discuss and discuss here, and we don't even know the actual situation over there, isn't this a blind discussion? Messenger. "Yang Gengai decided to meet the envoy first, this knows himself and knows the enemy, and he has heard of it in a hundred battles.

Seeing that the emperor insisted on seeing the envoy, many ministers sighed secretly, this is not easy to persuade the emperor, if he persuades again, the emperor was originally angry with the Japanese captive Ryukyu, and he will become angry with himself.

"The envoy of the King of Zhongshan in the Xuanyu Kingdom has come to you." After a long shout, after a short time, two people came.

Yang Gengai looked at it, and the clothes worn by these two people were quite similar to the official uniforms of the Ming Dynasty.

"The subject country of the Ming Dynasty, the envoy of the Ryukyu Kingdom knocked on His Majesty the Emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." Two kowtows, very respectful, this has been waiting for seven or eight years, and finally met the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, how difficult it is!

"Get up. You are the envoys of the Ryukyu Kingdom? Yang Reform looked at these two people, if it weren't for them saying that they were from the Ryukyu Kingdom, their outfits and appearance would be no different from a small official in the Ming Dynasty.

"Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is exact." One of the leaders said.

"Do you have a national credential?" Yang Gai has read "Journey to the West" and knows that this meeting with foreign envoys, people or something, there should be things like national letters and official dishes.

"Back to Your Majesty, there are, there are." The leader hurriedly took out a notebook from his arms, bowed his head, and respectfully held it above his head.

Wang Chengen went to get it back, and handed it to the emperor, Yang Gengai opened it and looked at it, pretending to look at it.

"The Ryukyu Kingdom is a subject country of our dynasty, and it has always been respectful to our dynasty, this, I know, this envoy, it is said that this Japanese country once sent troops to capture the lord of the country in the early years, the sect weapon, but there is such a thing?"

And when he said this, the messenger wept and began to weep, and told the matter in fits and starts. At the same time, he continued to add oil and vinegar to this story, and said that he was inferior to a beast, and it was even more unreasonable to the Celestial Empire.

This messenger is also sensational, and many people in this hall have become indignant.

"In this way, this Wa Kingdom is really hateful, this envoy, tell me, how many troops are stationed in the Ryukyus?" This is very crucial, Yang Gai felt that if he said that he had few troops over there, he could send some people over to rescue the Ryukyu Kingdom, and then garrison troops there by the way, which would become history, and then he could do business smoothly.

"Back to Your Majesty, there are not many people stationed in our Ryukyu Kingdom in this country, only a few hundred, I think that at the beginning, there were only three thousand troops sent to attack our country, but now, most of them have been withdrawn, and there are only less than four or five hundred people." This envoy leaked the details of himself to the Ming Dynasty.

Yang Reform was secretly proud in his heart, very good, very good, only a few hundred people, it is enough to send one or two thousand people by himself, this number is not big, the expenditure is not large, it should be possible, this training sailors, sending troops overseas, this head has everything. This is a start! Overlord of the Seven Seas, I'm here.
