A person from the Ming Kingdom actually became a samurai, and he was also a high-level samurai, which made many people dissatisfied, and it was rumored that this sea lord would become Hizen Mamoru in the future, that is, the daimyo of one side, although it was absurd, but no one dared to say anything wrong, who mentioned this in front of the grief-stricken Lord Sekihaku, it is not impossible to disembowelment and strip off the territory

And this Shen Va's strength is also strong enough, so many big names, large and small naval armies, no force can catch up with Shen Vao's fleet

Shen Vao's status is different now, several ports in Kyushu and Honshu have given him the right to exclusive trade, originally he had a dominant share in the trade between Japan and the Ming Dynasty, but now this has become an absolute advantage

Now if you want to do business in Japan, you have to cooperate with him, and those big and small sea lords who originally relied on Japan for food, or took refuge or formed alliances, were almost all controlled by Shen Vain, and it was not that no one wanted to merge with him, but with the support of the land army, they were really not opponents near Japan's territorial waters

If you don't know or someone to guide you, looking at Shen Vao in a Japanese-style robe, etiquette and clothing, speech and demeanor, no one can see the difference between Shen Vao and other daimyos, and he is completely a Kyushu sea man from the Wa Kingdom

And after coming to Osaka Castle, the sequence of Shen Va's worship was arranged very high, Guan Bai's subordinate officials and generals were very polite and dagger to this Lord Shen, Guan Bai Toyotomi Hideyoshi Despite such grief, he still found time to summon Shen Vain alone, and talked privately for a long time, which is a rare courtesy

Originally, the Arima family and the Ryuzoji family, who were not convinced by Shen Vao's status, began to privately entrust people to make peace with the Shimazu family, and even sent a daughter to ask for marriage

Shen Vain can really be said to be complacent, he is just a pirate in Daming, although the official is also respectful to him, but that is just a silver money to see him, anyone with an official body can arrest him, and any good citizen can despise him, but now it is different, Shen Vain is already a man in Japan, and he is also a high-ranking official

But the scenery is beautiful, and it is good to be proud and full of smugness in Japan, but when I leave here, I am still depressed

Originally, he thought that when he came to Japan, he could avoid Tianjin Wei far away, but when he came to Japan, he found that if he wanted to trade and buy and sell any goods that could bring huge profits, he had to deal with the Sanjiang System and the alliance of the Sanjiang System

For example, after the largest sugar trade in total profit occupied Luzon, all sugar transportation had to pass through the control area of the Sanjiang fleet, and Luzon's purposeful cultivation of sugar cane and the development of sugar extraction industry made the sugar production here very large, and it was able to hit the Japanese market

And silk, raw silk, medicinal herbs and porcelain, Songjiang and Tianjin Wei are all under the control of the Sanjiang system, and in every penny that Shen Vai now earns at sea, the Sanjiang system has to get half or even more of it, and it is not a good feeling to be pinched by others, and Shen Vain is trying hard to get rid of him

What made Shen Vao feel depressed was that he had found a trading house selling leather goods outside the customs in Incheon Port in North Korea, thinking that he had found a source of profits, but he didn't expect to send someone to inquire

Shen Vain is now extremely enthusiastic about acquiring a port, a port exclusive to himself, as long as there is such a place, he can have a stable supply area and a stable rear

Driven by this thought, Shen Vain was extremely attentive to Toyotomi Hideyoshi's orders to gather fleets everywhere and search for ships that could be used, and the amount of gold and silver allocated to him by Toyotomi Hideyoshi was huge, if in the past, this was a great opportunity to exploit and detain, but Shen Vain was not very greedy for ink, and used it as much as possible to build ships and win people's hearts

His style made the samurai sent by Toyotomi Hideyoshi very satisfied, and Shen Vain became more and more trusted by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, but the momentum was so big, and Shen Vao's current ships were completely sufficient, and it was difficult for him to hide from anyone who had a heart from what he did, not to mention, there were already big Japanese merchants who began to transport grain and various equipment to Hizen and Chikuzen by water and sea, and that was Tsushima Island to the west, and Tsushima Island was Korea to the west

What is there in North Korea, there are poor bottoms from top to bottom, and the real benefit is still in the Ming Dynasty to the west, where is the legendary rich country full of gold

…………―……

Common sense speaking, the Ming Dynasty is a big country, Japan is a small country, the two sides can not speak the same day at all, but it may not be the case in detail, during the Jiajing period, for the disaster in the southeast, almost shook the society of the Japanese Kou is only to the Japanese Warring States those defeated samurai as the backbone, on the Ming Dynasty of all walks of life suffered heavy losses

Look at the present, the Ming Dynasty has been peaceful for a long time, and the generals and soldiers of Japan have just stopped, one is too peaceful for a long time, and the other is battle-hardened, which is naturally different

The maritime merchants who traveled back and forth between the Ming Dynasty and the Japanese Kingdom looked at the Japanese generals and soldiers more, but they saw less on the Ming Dynasty, and the majesty of the forbidden army on the grassland was extremely distant to them, and it was difficult to distinguish between the true and the false, but the two hundred years of Japan's Warring States period, going back and forth in various ports, saw and heard a lot

What the imperial court center of the Ming Dynasty discussed, it would be circulated in teahouses and liquor shops that night, and the situation in Japan was not much better, and secrecy might be a little better, but on the second and third days, there would be corresponding news circulating in the castle town

How many people Lord Guan Bai wants to use, in November of the 19th year of Wanli, many people with status already know, and it will not be less than 200,000

200,000 troops, so many years of the Warring States Period, the number of troops dispatched to this number was last year's expedition to Hojo, this time it is actually necessary to dispatch such a large scale, and the generals and legions used have also been reported, all of them are the generals and elite corps of the West and Kyushu and Shikoku

With such a scale, such a quality of generals and soldiers, 200,000 people, how many times has the Ming Dynasty mobilized a team of this scale to carefully calculate, it is really impossible to find it over the years

Many battles are so-called hundreds of thousands, claiming to be just a bluff, claiming to be millions, but in fact, how many people, after careful study, it seems that there is no time for more than 100,000, and not everyone in the Ming Dynasty can fight, and they have to divide what family is a soldier, what pacesetter and what is a regular soldier, many soldiers are just a soldier with the name of a soldier, in fact, do a heavy lifting job

And the 200,000 Japanese soldiers, if you plan carefully, are all veterans everywhere, all fighting on the battlefield last year's role, without a trace of falsehood, such a team is really going to North Korea, wouldn't it be overwhelming, sweeping all the way, even if it goes to Daming, Liaoning may not have enough strength to resist

Sea owners have been at sea for a long time, and they don't see much and don't have much basis for judgment, but this does not prevent them from making judgments and trade-offs

Shen Vain is about to become a big name in Feiqian, this news makes them extremely envious of him Sanshui King wants to be a real king this time Many people say so, he has a boat and people, I also have a boat and people, why can't I do this, there are also many large and small forces to come to help

For these sea lords from the Ming Dynasty, Toyotomi Hideyoshi is naturally the more the merrier, the big ship that Japan can use is called the Ataku Ship, a flat-bottomed big ship with a wooden building on it, and a large barrel and bow and arrow, which can not withstand the wind and waves at all, and the small boat is not worth mentioning, and even the technology of iron nails has only been mastered in recent years, and there is no way to compare with the ships of the Ming Dynasty

In fact, the Dutch and Portuguese were willing to provide ships, but they could afford less than ten ships in all, and the reward demanded was too high

In addition to Shen Yuan, there is also the rising sea lord Li Dan who is willing to send people out of the boat, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi is also willing to reward a person like Li Dan, he also knows that he can't rely on one family, and he must also have some restraint and balance

After wandering on the sea for a long time, accustomed to seeing the wind and waves, accustomed to life and death, people at sea are accustomed to taking risks, but the sea lords and maritime merchants have also accumulated a lot of wealth, not everyone wants to fight, many people want to wait and see, see the development of things and then bet

They don't want to blatantly support or not support anyone, they only serve for money, and Japan is willing to buy them off with gold ingots and trading rights, so they are naturally happy to help

The sea lords and maritime merchants are actually quite weak about their national attributes, just like the later period of the southeast war, most of the powerful pirates along the coast drove the Japanese soldiers to loot and burn, and they didn't feel that they should do these things, whether they were traitors, they just felt that they had money to make why they didn't make it

A missionary once wrote in his travelogue that "the pirates of the Ming Empire should not be accurate to say what nation or country they belong to, they themselves are a country, to be precise, their actions and morals are very similar to the Netherlands, the forces on the sea themselves are a whole, they have their own interests and judgments, although some people are inclined to the Ming Empire, some are inclined to Japan, some only identify with themselves, if they have their own territory, perhaps they are the Dutch United Provincial Republic in the East......"

There are such and such trade-offs and judgments, there are those above who are willing to help Japan invade Korea, there are those who want to stay out of the matter, and there are those who worry about Daming

In December of the 19th year of Wanli, the maritime merchants Zhu Junwang and Chen Shen reported in Fuzhou, and reported in Fujian that the Japanese were about to attack Korea and invade the Ming Dynasty

But there is a paradox here, the Ming Dynasty has the most severe charges and punishments for the Japanese people, you report the news, where did you get this news, if it is not with the Japanese people, how can you explain the authenticity of this

And people who think they have logical judgments think that the so-called Japanese people entering North Korea is really incredible, absurd, far away, and was hit so hard in the Ming Dynasty during the Jiajing period, how could there be any 200,000 people attacking it, isn't this alarmist and deliberately disturbing people's hearts?

At that time, in the area of Fujian and Zhejiang, the stage was singing, and some people jokingly shouted "The Japanese are coming" Tens of thousands of people panicked, hundreds of people trampled on the crowd and died, and the lawbreakers took the opportunity to steal and rob, isn't it this time?

The two maritime merchants were arrested as soon as possible and put into prison, and the Fujian inspector said quite leisurely:

"This is a merit for the sake of the collusion, inciting people's hearts to take advantage of it"

For a while, everyone praised one after another, saying that the patrol was calm and calm, and he saw through the tricks of traitors, which was really the choice of Zaifu

However, this matter is too shocking, although this patrol has been dealt with like this, the local Jinyi guard does not dare to judge it like this, and hurriedly sent someone to the prison for interrogation, and then delivered the news to the Jingshi quickly

This behavior was also reprimanded by the patrol, saying that you should take the imperial court and don't do such ridiculous and nonsensical business, there is nothing to do, and I am afraid that your first trial will become a disaster, and if it spreads outside, isn't it that people are panicking, and they really think that there will be some signs of Japanese people entering the prison

"If there is no king, how dare you act so recklessly today"

The Inspector also said this in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner, and Wang Tong is now not in the center of the Liao Kingdom, and it is not a big deal to scold one or two sentences in Fujian, and he can still have a reputation of being honest and outspoken

Usually speaking, this is true, but this time the matter did not develop according to the expectations of the Fujian patrol, and the Jinyi Wei Qianhu who was reprimanded by him sent his words to the Beijing Division, in fact, there are a lot of words to scold Wang Tong in various places, and Jinyiwei does not pay much attention to it, and the prince of Liao, Dutang himself, is just smiling, why should everyone care

But this time, at the end of the first month of the twentieth year of Wanli, the Qin Cha rushed to Fuzhou, and the Fujian Inspector went to prison for the crime of dereliction of duty, raised Zhu Junwang and Chen Shen from prison, praised and condoled, and arranged a ship to go north immediately and rush to Beijing

………………

Song Chanchan was also born a boy, and when she learned that the child was safe and a boy, Song Chanchan cried with joy, startled the mother-in-law who was serving her, and hurriedly comforted her

Wang Tong was naturally overjoyed, this time the name was much easier than last time, since there is already "loyalty", then this is Wang Yi

Wang Tong got a son, the whole Jiangnan is a sensation, and it is in the first month of the twentieth year of Wanli, everyone has the opportunity to celebrate noisily, Dao He stepped through the threshold, not for Lord Wang to get a son, but to take the opportunity to be close to the Liao State Gong, Wang Tong is naturally willing to have fun with the people

The prince of Wei arrived at the beginning of February, this is a distinguished guest in any sense, Wang Tong put down a family banquet and treated him leniently, after three rounds of wine, the guests and hosts were happy, but some guards hurriedly came in, saying that there was an urgent report from the Beijing Division, after Wang Tong opened it, the smile on his face disappeared

Toyotomi Hideyoshi sent a letter to the king of Joseon, and there was a sentence on the letter, "I want to fake your country, cross the mountains and seas, go straight to the Ming Dynasty, and make it fly to the full extent of the four hundred states" Thank you for your subscription and monthly pass, thank you" Kawa and Dongfang Tuo" two friends for their rewards to be continued, if you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point of the wings group purple cherry Scorpio provides, the wings group recruits, Q group: 97349073, integrity group, selection of people, regardless of technology, character priority votes, monthly passes, your support is my biggest motivation -
