Chapter 513: The Destruction of Kyoto (Part II)

"Your Excellency, General."

When the Minister of Internal Guards left to take charge of the task of settling down Kyoto Castle and protecting Shihito, a guard hurriedly found Ashikaga Yoshinori and said eagerly: "The envoy of the Ming army is here to see you." ”

Konoe's report made Ashikaga Yoshimori's face even more difficult to look at, and he waved his hand in disgust: "It must be here to persuade you to surrender, if you don't see it, kill it." ”

The guard who received the order turned around and was about to leave, but he didn't take a few steps before he was stopped by Ashikaga Yoshimori.

"Wait."

Sighing, Ashikaga Yoshinori was a little decadent: "Let him come." ”

The guard, who was obviously a little relieved on his expression, answered, hurriedly walked out, and soon came in with a middle-aged man wearing Minglian armor.

"Hello Your Excellency General Ashikaga, Jia Yi, staff officer of the Siam Group Army of the Southwest Theater of the Ming Alliance."

The middle-aged man has a somewhat dark complexion, and he does not have the hair of a traditional Ming man, Ashikaga Yoshinori can recognize at a glance, and the so-called Jia Yi in front of him is a Siamese, even if he speaks fluent Ming official dialect.

"Jia? Aren't you Siamese? ”

Ashikaga Yoshimochi sat high and looked down condescendingly.

In the face of Ashikaga Yoshiji's disdain and contempt, Jia Yi raised his head: "I used to be Siamese, and now we have a common country, I am a native of Minglian, and the surname Jia is also based on the culture of the Fa Minglian, rather than narrowly taking Siam as everything." ”

"Huh." Ashikaga Yoshichi couldn't help laughing: "Betraying the ancestors is betraying the ancestors, don't put gold on your face, and talk nonsense, you Siam will always be just Siam, Daming is Daming, this is different." ”

"Does Your Excellency Ashikaga want to waste all his time on dividing the relationship between Siam and Daming?" Jia Yi saw that Ashikaga Yoshinori was still so arrogant, so he didn't bother to wait for Ashikaga Yoshinori to be polite, and went straight to find a vacant seat to sit down, and the angry indoor guard almost wanted to draw a knife, if it wasn't for Ashikaga Yoshinori raising his hand to suppress it, I was afraid that Jia Yi's blood would be splashed on the spot.

"Say, what are you here for, to die?"

Ashikaga Yoshishi pressed his thigh with his arm and glared at Jia Yi with fierce eyes: "Now your so-called Minglian wants to destroy my country and nation, and the hatred between us can fill all corners of the world, let you be a messenger, it is to kill you, and you are still talking to the despicable and shameless Central Plains?" ”

"It's my business who I talk to, but His Excellency Ashikaga speaks the original words very well."

Jia Yi's face was calm, and he sneered at each other: "On this point, His Excellency Ashikaga can be regarded as speaking to the Central Plains, so let's talk about some serious things." ”

As he spoke, he took out a letter and unfolded it, cleared his throat and read it aloud: "This is a handwritten letter from Marshal Xue Ke, the commander-in-chief of the Righteous Army, who represents peace, civilization and prosperity in order to help Japan join the Minglian family and achieve common prosperity.

To His Excellency Ashikaga Yoshimochi, the Great General of Seiyi:

In the Asian system appointed by the great Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, North Asia, Northeast Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, and India successively cheered for joining the Ming Union system, and under the common planning and guidance of the Ming Alliance, the country was prosperous and the people were rich and strong.

The land of the Japanese projectile, the narrow land and the people still do not want to forge ahead, and go against the grain, so that Japan is gradually moving away from the rich and strong civilization, and the people are miserable, and many business travelers have settled in the holy land of the Ming Dynasty, and they are unwilling to return to China.

This time, the arrival of the king was actually invited by the merchants of tomorrow, and he came to save the whole of Japan. Your Excellency Ashikaga Yoshimori, although you are a respectable commander, you are first and foremost a member of the Yamato nation, then a Japanese citizen, and finally a courtier of a war criminal usurping the self-proclaimed emperor.

What you should really owe your allegiance is to your people and your country, to the millions of people of your race who are equally eager to achieve prosperity and progress, and not to narrow loyalty to Shiren alone.

Ming Lian Xuanhe Wang Division's military fortune is prosperous, it is difficult to find an opponent This is an indisputable fact, Japan is by no means an opponent, the war to this day, the army commander of the mantis arm has wiped out 130,000 giants, and its own losses are less than 3,000.

The Ming Alliance has a huge army of four million, Your Excellency is a military attachΓ©, and you should know that the strength of the battle array is comparable to that of the moat, and your Excellency has fulfilled your responsibility as a military general since the defense of Kyoto, and it is not Your Excellency's fault that Kyoto will fall sooner or later.

Inevitably, after the city was broken, the life was devastated, and the commander was also afraid that the cannon would go off and Kyoto would be destroyed under fire. I would like to ask your Excellency to lay down your arms and give orders to the three armies to surrender to our army in an orderly and orderly manner, so that Kyoto and Japan are fortunate.

The commander promised that the army entering the city would not harm the lives of the people, respect the culture of your country, strictly control military discipline, and not disturb the people.

After the usurpation of the puppet Jun Shiren accepts his due punishment, he will ask His Majesty the great Emperor of the Ming Dynasty to sponsor Your Excellency as the new Governor of Japan, and your family will be a minister on your behalf, and you will leap to the supreme level, which is the glory of the family.

Japan has been poor and weak for thousands of years, the times to the Central Plains as a teacher, now into the Ming Union, he will be able to develop rapidly, rise to be strong, and the Central Plains I Ming is not difficult to keep along, this is the glory of Japan, the whole nation of Japan will regard you as a hero, a hundred years later forever in the annals of Japanese history.

Fortunately, the commander-in-chief of the Ming Union Navy and the Marquis Xue Ke of Ming Yongcheng personally presented it. ”

This letter almost didn't kill Ashikaga Yoshitori, Rao is Ashikaga Yoshichi restrained a few times, but in the end it still spurted out a mouthful of blood, which frightened several guards to hurriedly step forward, and even more anxious, pulled out a knife and was about to cut Jia Yi, and saw Ashikaga Yoshinori stretching out his hand before he put down it with hatred.

"Shameless!"

Ashikaga Yoshinori drank water and rinsed his mouth, and exhaled a few times before he calmed down.

Not to mention, a mouthful of blood spurted out a few months of depression, and this scolding was full of anger.

"War! Japan will fight to the end! Even if the jade is burned, it will not leave you with the so-called bullshit Minglian. ”

"Is it the choice of you, Your Excellency Ashikaga Yoshitomo, or the choice of everyone around you?"

Faced with the madness of Ashikaga Yoshimori, Jia Yi stood up, took a step forward, and said aggressively: "How can hundreds of thousands of people in Kyoto City choose?" How do you choose your wife and children? The only fate of the jade burning is that this land will be devoid of grass under artillery fire, and all who live are criminal war criminals against justice, including your children, and when this land is conquered, the Ashikaga family will be infamous as national sinners for thousands of years. ”

After that, Jia Yi took out a prototype object from his arms and put it on the table in front of Ashikaga Yoshimori: "This is a gift from you from the marshal of my army, in Minglian, this thing is called a clock, a very expensive object, and the time to turn around is one hundred and twenty minutes, that is, an hour."

The current time is Shen Zheng, also called four o'clock in the afternoon, an hour later, if your side still refuses to surrender, Kyoto is fifty miles away, and all the living creatures and plants are scorched and dusty. ”

Looking at Jia Yi's turned back, Ashikaga Yoshinori roared angrily in his heart.

Kill!

But his mouth opened and closed several times, but he couldn't spit out a simple word.

Incompetent and cowardly watched Jia Yi show off his might like this and then leave proudly.

It's easy to kill a Jia Yi, but it's hard to make that choice.

"The war is over."

For a long time, Ashikaga Yoshitsu sat on the ground with a decadent buttocks, like an Akita dog that had been sucked out of his backbone.

"This is the end of Japan's fate."

Ashikaga Yoshinori was a brave man, but he was not as ruthless and resolute as his father, and he cared more about his family. In order to pursue the supreme power of Japan, so that his Ashikaga family can replace the Chrysanthemum Dynasty of the 10,000 generations to become the new imperial family, since the beginning of more than ten years has been waging the tail of the Ming Dynasty begging, great courtesy, when it is known that there are Haikou to disturb the border of the Ming Sea Frontier, it is even more terrified to the table, in order to prove innocence, but also spare no effort to clear the sea bandits.

Just to prove to the Ming Dynasty that these pirates are real pirates, and they were not sent by their Ashikaga family to deliberately provoke the frontier.

In my heart, I still think that my descendants can not be ministers on behalf of others, but be the king of Japan in a grand manner.

Jia Yi's words pierced into the bottom of Ashikaga Yoshito's heart, can he beg for death wholeheartedly, and the children under his knees also seek death?

"Your Excellency, we still have the strength to fight."

Konoe picked up Ashikaga Yoshinori and cried bitterly: "We still have 100,000 troops, and there are still more than 400,000 people in Kyoto City." ”

"100,000 troops, 400,000 people."

Ashikaga Yoshitoshi laughed weakly: "The Ming army has already wiped out our hundreds of thousands of troops, how many of these 100,000 are left?" As for the people, no matter how many they are, when the cannons go off, they will be all corpses all over the place.

What is the future of Japan depends on the courage of future generations to recover, and if I fight to the end today and destroy the country and the species, there will be no hope for future generations to reopen the sun, moon and sky.

You go and pass on my military order and surrender to the Ming army. ”

The guards were dumbfounded: "So、What about you?" ”

Ashikaga Yoshimori's eyes looked at the wall behind him, where the Ashikaga family's household knife hung from it.

"I, I'm sorry for the nation, I deserve to die."

With that, he pushed away the guards beside him and drew his sword out of its sheath.

The cold was biting, and Ashikaga Yoshitoshi shivered involuntarily.

Gritting his teeth, he stabbed himself in the lower abdomen before several guards pounced.

From top to bottom, cut raw to the chest!

"Farewell, Your Majesty the Emperor; Farewell, Haruko! ”

Ashikaga Yoshito, whose eyes gradually dimmed, slowly fell to the ground.

The blood that burst out reddened the map of Gyeonggi on the table, and merged with the red representing Myeonglian.

Farewell to the Emperor.

Farewell to Kyoto.

Farewell, Japan!
