All the way east?

Depart from Busan and head to the eastern sea.

As long as the direction is correct, it is indeed possible to reach Wakoku and even directly enter the island of Honshu. And it's not too far, maybe not as far as the distance from Shandong to North Korea.

"Give up the Tsushima transit point and withdraw directly to the east to the Wa Kingdom." The index finger of his right hand kept tapping on the desk, and Mo Xiaobai found that he still had some negligence.

According to the habitual thinking, if the Japanese want to escape, they will definitely choose the nearest route.

Once the Japanese go the other way, they will not be able to complete the task of interception at all with the dozens of warships of the current North Korean naval division.

"General Li, what you said is very right, the Japanese people are forced to be helpless, and they are likely to do this."

Mo Xiaobai nodded and said: "But there are more than 100 large and small ships left in the Japanese now, but there are still more than 70,000 people who need to evacuate, they will not use this route easily, once they use it, it is equivalent to choosing to give up a large part of the soldiers." ”

Speaking of this, Mo Xiaobai's thinking gradually became clear.

The generals of the Japanese people are by no means monolithic, and although their respective fleets are forced to gather together, they are still in the same bed.

Ukita Hideya must also be at odds, so he hasn't made up his mind yet.

"It seems that it is time to send peace envoys again."

Mo Xiaobai touched his chin and said, "General Li, you lead the fleet to continue to blockade the west side of Pushan Mountain to prevent the Japanese from escaping after entering the Western Islands. As for the east, it is still necessary to maintain the situation that has not yet been broken. ”

"The last will understand."

Yi Sunsin was a pure general, and he would not consider whether accepting the command of the Ming Dynasty would damage the dignity of the Korean monarch and ministers, and he only cared about one thing, that is, to defeat the invading Japanese people.

The Admiral in front of him is undoubtedly the one who can do this. Even if it is the most stupid method, it is a strategy to transfer the Daming Naval Division to blockade Busan.

As for whether there was a better way for the Ming Dynasty, Li Sunsin didn't ask, and he knew that the admiral would not tell him.

After the conversation with Li Sunsin came to an end, Mo Xiaobai called Shen Weijing again, and after whispering, asked him to take the peace delegation to Busan.

………

"What? The Ming Mission is here again? ”

In Busan City, when the Ukita Hideya heard the herald's report that Shen Weijing was visiting again, their eyes were full of anger in addition to surprise.

At this moment, what does it mean that the Ming Dynasty sent envoys?

Do you want that envoy to humiliate yourself?

"Let him come, I'll see if he has the guts to see me!"

Ukita Hideya gritted his teeth and spoke, and the herald did not dare to stay longer, and immediately left to meet the Ming envoy.

This time, there were no Japanese generals out of the city to greet them.

However, Shen Weijing was not intimidated, and did not go to the pavilion to rest, but went directly to see Yuxi Taxiu's house.

As the messenger soldiers entered the mansion of the general who was dominated by the Ukita Hideya family, the front foot stepped into the threshold, and there were two Japanese soldiers with knives on their necks on the back feet.

"The general wants to kill me?" Shen Weijing's eyelids trembled, but there was no look of fear on his face.

"Don't you deserve to die?"

Ukita Hidegamori opened his mouth coldly, and his right hand was clenched into a fist: "How many warriors under my command Da Ming have killed, how many knives I will chop you today!" ”

"A thousand cuts? The general must find someone with good skills, lest my bones be broken up before he can cut 100,000 knives. Shen Weijing said, with a bit of sarcasm on his face.

"Do you think I don't dare?"

"Say it as if you really dare."

Shen Weijing flicked his right hand, slapped the back of the knife on the right side, and then took two steps forward and said: "This time, I am still here to negotiate peace with the general, but before the peace negotiation, the Admiral still has a question, let me ask on my behalf." ”

"What's wrong with you?"

"When peace was negotiated in Seoul that day, the general pretended to repair relations with the Ming Dynasty and sent envoys, but in fact it was to delay the secret retreat. A few days later, Yushiba Hidekatsu, the peace envoy of your Japanese state, left Pyongyang under the false pretense that he needed a reply. ”

After Shen Weijing said these two words, he immediately sneered: "Do you know why the Admiral let him leave?" Because the tricks of your widows have long been seen through by my admiral. You don't want to accept reparations, thinking that you can safely withdraw to the Wa Kingdom, but what is the result? Look at the city of Busan beneath your feet, from the land to the seaport, you are already surrounded by groups. ”

"Now, you still think you can escape?"

Can you escape?

Ukita Hideya didn't dare to assert.

But he didn't want Shen Weijing to have the upper hand, so he immediately threatened: "Don't underestimate us too much, I can break the net with you Damingyu in Busan City." ”

"Fish dead and broken? Who is the fish and who is the net? ”

Shen Weijing laughed again, shook his head and said, "It seems that you still don't understand your situation, your subordinates, even within your Ukita family, not all of them are loyal to you. How many loyal men do you have left, 50,000, or 30,000? I don't have to secretly look for them to cooperate, as long as the Ming army sets up a battle outside Busan, there must be not a few Japanese people who defect to the battle, there are not so many crazy people in the Japanese country, and they are really willing to work for your Sekibai Toyotomi Hideyoshi. ”

Shen Weijing said a few words, and the Yuxi Taxiu family was squeezed into a burst of blue and white.

However, just when his inner defense line was about to collapse, Shen Weijing stuck a knife in him again: "By the way, I don't know if the general has received the news, the Tsushima Island Zong family has been captured by us, if the head of the Tsushima family is in the city, we have to trouble the general to tell him, our Ming will take good care of his family." ”

"It is no longer possible for the Japanese to retreat to Tsushima Island, and it is not so easy to escape from Geoje Island to the southern islands to survive, and Yi Sunsin will not let you go. Neither of these paths has a choice, let me guess, what else do you have to do to survive? For example, go east and go straight to your homeland? ”

When Shen Weijing's last sentence came out, Ukita Xiujia 'snapped', and his whole body fell backwards.

Da Ming actually knows, already know?

So why has I never received any news about the Daming Navy Division deploying in the eastern part of Bushan recently?

Is it a trap?

Ukita Hideya's thoughts are chaotic, and since Daming already knows, it is impossible not to arrange it in advance. I didn't find it, so I can only say that Daming's defense line is outside the scope of our own harbor exploration.

The Ukita Hideya, who was in a state of panic, never thought about the possibility that the Ming Navy was not in the eastern part of Budong at all.

"General, with all due respect."

Seeing that Ukita Xiujia's expression was broken, Shen Weijing had a good time to speak: "If Lord Admiral doesn't want you to leave, you won't be able to leave North Korea for the rest of your life." But God has the virtue of a good life, which is why I went on another mission. ”

"Now that you have no way out, the peace treaty will be changed again, and this time, even you, the general, are not qualified to call the shots. Therefore, I hope that the Shogun will send an envoy to Osaka Castle with me to your Wa Kingdom, where I will meet with your Sekihaku and discuss with him the final peace treaty. ”
