Ship 101, in the captain's dining room in the stern.

At the end of the banquet, Qiaoqiao brought Jinling-style desserts, and the sugar sprinkled on top made the eyes of the two businessmen with a keen sense of smell light up, and after asking that this thing was unique to Jiangnan Group, the two were busy asking if they could entrust the Tamna Chamber of Commerce to purchase the goods.

Zhao Gongzi readily agreed, in fact, there is no need for them to say, Zhao Hao will also dump white sugar to Japan and even the world. Getting the samurai and knights to get diabetes was his unremitting pursuit for many years.

Hopefully, insulin will be developed at that time, and then it will make another wave.

"And one last thing, which is to secretly support the shogunate." Zhao Gongzi finally instructed: "In addition, I have a special affection for monks, if Nobunaga Gong does something to Ishiyama Honganji in the future, you must do your best to help Xianru on the premise of protecting yourself." ”

From next year, because the contradiction between Ashikaga Yoshiaki and Oda Nobunaga is public, the first Nobunaga siege network will be launched, and Ishiyama Honganji, the command tower against the demon king, Zhao Gongzi still has to hold on. So as not to affect the effect of the encirclement network because of his own blow to the Maori family.

"Hey." The two of them hurriedly responded in a deep voice. Sakai City already had deep ties with the shogunate and the Ichisho sect, and it was forced to commit to Oda Nobunaga. They don't dare to openly support both, but it is inevitable that they will secretly make small gestures. Now that Zhao Gongzi is on the same position as them, he can finally dare to do something more out of the ordinary......

~~

Zhao Gongzi is about to leave the day in a few days, and people who want to see him come one after another. By the time the two of them had taken their leave, the guards had reported that Father Louis had been waiting for a long time.

Zhao Hao took a deep breath tiredly, looked at the warm afternoon sun outside, and asked the guards to set up tables and chairs on the deck and invite the priest to tea.

After a brief greeting, the priest told Zhao Hao that they had sent a messenger to Macau, but at least a month at a time. And it is estimated that Governor Domingo will not make a decision soon, and he will receive a reply by the end of the year at the earliest.

"It's okay, in order to save time, my representative will go to Guangzhou to meet him face-to-face." Zhao Hao said lightly: "I believe that there, he will be more aware of my kindness." ”

"That's good, that's good, our Jesuits will do our best to help Gongzi make this happen." Father Louis took a sip of black tea from the teacup, feeling that it was not strong enough, and added a large spoonful of sugar. When he heard that this thing was expensive, he had a feeling that he had earned it.

"In addition, I came this time to ask my son, after the spring next year, can I send a missionary to Daming to preach?"

"I have to go up to the book after returning to China, Honglu Temple, the Ministry of Rites, the Cabinet, and the Emperor, and ask for instructions layer by layer." Zhao Gongzi held the teacup and skillfully played Tai Chi and said: "Alas, my Ming bureaucracy kills people." ”

"That's right......" Father Louis did not doubt it, the Jesuits had already touched the nail outside the Ming Gate, and naturally knew that the Ming Dynasty officials were wary of foreign missionary work. It is rare to have a Ming governor like Zhao Gongzi who did not reject the Chezhi Dan religion...... In the eyes of the missionaries, Zhao Gongzi's official position should be similar to that of the Portuguese overseas governor...... Of course, they have to hold on to it.

"How long will it take?"

"It's hard to say." Zhao Hao frowned and sighed: "Inefficiency is a common problem in the civil and official system, I have a limerick poem saying this matter, 'The chapter is handed over to the official, and the official master is approved and approved; The yamen went around and around, and in the end, the question was where it came from'...... Do not understand? Forget it, anyway, you know, it's not surprising that you get stuck for half a year in any link. ”

As he spoke, he comforted the priest and said, "Anyway, I try to urge a little bit, and you should be patient." I've been waiting for so many years, and I can't wait? ”

"Isn't that hope?" Fr. Louis sneered and said that the entry of the Chezhi Dan Sect into the Ming Dynasty, the Celestial Empire in the Far East, would greatly reduce the difficulty of their missionary work in Southeast Asia. If it can get the endorsement of Ming officials, it can completely make up for the serious shortage of Portuguese troops in the South Seas and the shortcomings of very limited deterrence.

"Then you have to be patient." Zhao Hao said with a smile: "You can't enter Daming for decades, you should know that there is a lot of resistance in this matter." I also have to plan carefully, give enough foreplay and lubrication first, and try slowly to strive for a success. Otherwise, if you fail this time, you will have to wait a few more years before you can try again. ”

"Clearly, we will no longer urge Childe, Childe will grasp the time by himself." Father Louis then stepped back and said, "I heard that Jeju ...... Oh no, Tamna, it's all up to Childe? ”

"It can't be said that it is the land of the Ming Dynasty, and it is under the local civil and military jurisdiction of the Li Dynasty." Zhao Hao glanced at Father Louis with a smile, and he knew that they were like stinky flies, and they would not let go of any opportunity to preach. "The priest is from Europe, so he should know very well that the subjects of the vassal are not my people, right?"

"Understood, understood." Father Louis's heart sank, and he secretly said that he couldn't even do Tamna.

"The priest wants to go there to preach?" Zhao Gongzi took the initiative to ask.

"Uh-huh." Father Louis nodded and said, "The Li Dynasty is closely following the steps of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty is not open to us, and they have always kept us out. I can only count on Childe as the protector. ”

"Okay." Zhao Hao seemed to have made up his mind: "Then I'll go back and tell the people of the Li Dynasty, you can send someone over after the New Year." ”

"Oh, praise the Lord! Thanks Childe! Father Louis was overjoyed, and got up and bowed as he drew a cross. The Li Dynasty is also a populous country in the Far East, and if he can use Tamna Island as a wedge to take down the Korean Peninsula, his own merits will be enough to canonize him.

Father St. Louis, wow! Just thinking about it makes people feel like being dripping with wax......

"But I have one condition." Zhao Gongzi said with a smile.

"Childe, please speak." The priest hurriedly wiped away his saliva and listened attentively.

"You have to swear to God that you must not allow artillery, artillery technology and artillery craftsmen to flow to Japan." Zhao Hao said coldly: "I also swear here, as long as there is an artillery piece in Japan, unless our previous agreement is invalidated, I will also drive the Chezhi Danjiao out of Japan." You know I can do it! ”

"Oh, my God......" The priest suddenly sweated. This Zhao Gongzi is too godly, he just promised before he came to help Master Zonglin hire a cannon craftsman. Why did you turn your head and let Zhao Gongzi knock it?

How did Zhao Hao know about his ** deal with Lao Wang? It's just to prevent the appearance of the first Japanese gunner.

"Well, I swear to God." It only took a few seconds for Father Louis to weigh up which was more important, and threw the promise to the king out of the clouds.

"Believe me, Father, this is the wisest choice in the long run." Zhao Hao raised the teacup and gestured to him slightly: "Without the advantage of cannons, Daming is still Daming, but can you still gain a foothold in Asia?" ”

"Yes, that's what Childe said." Father Louis wiped his sweat, and his little regret for the loss of the old king quickly disappeared.

~~

Three days later, the Mori family and the Otomo family also reached an agreement. The Mori family promised never to invade Kyushu, never colluded with the Kyushu Daimyo, recognized the Otomo family's right to rule Kyushu, and handed over Tachibanayama Castle and Moji Castle, and compensated the Otomo family for 100,000 copper coins, in exchange for a truce with the Otomo family.

This is where Maori Yuan is always scheming, after he first signed a treaty with the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty people are like arrows, anxious to go home for the New Year. This forced Lao Wang to sign an armistice agreement in a hurry. Otherwise, as soon as the Ming Dynasty fleet left, the Indao Navy would immediately be able to return to the Guanmen Strait...... It is true that the Maori family gave up the navy, but because the island navy is only an ally of the Maori family, it is not bound by the Treaty of Shimonoseki.

The 50,000 troops of the Maori family are still on the other side of the river and have not left, and when the time comes, it will not necessarily be who wins and who loses!

Besides, this agreement is still the benefit of the Otomo family, and without the Maori family making trouble behind his back, he can finally clean up the fat front bear.

Now Lao Wang is full of wanting to fight Little Bear! I happily signed the agreement.

After the agreement was made, the Otomo family immediately lifted the siege of the two castles. Yoshikawa and Kobayakawa led 3,000 defenders and 50,000 people from Moji Castle back to the Mori domain via a newly built pontoon bridge.

On the same day, Tachibanayama Castle also surrendered, and 1,000 Maori troops and 5,000 men and horses of the Akizuki Bunko Department also retreated to Zhoufang.

At the end of the same month, Takahashi Kantane, who had completely lost his fighting spirit due to the retreat of the Maori army, surrendered to Kaejo, and was then confiscated by Sorin's territory and moved to Bunzen Kokura. At this point, the Kitakyushu rebellion caused by the invasion of the Maori Army was completely put down!

With the duel between the two heroes, it ended in the complete victory of the Otomo family. Sorin built the largest territory of the Otomo family - with Bunzen, Bungo, Chikuzen, Chikugo, Hizen, Higo and Iyo Bankoku, ushering in the heyday of the era!

This made Zong Lin complacent, and suddenly felt that he was a good man who did not suffer immediate losses, bowed his head to Zhao Gongzi, and signed the "Oita Treaty", which was really wise.

But there is another voice shouting in his heart, even if Zhao Gongzi does not intervene, the winner of this battle should be Lao Wei!

Therefore, after sending off the fleet of the Ming Dynasty with the warmest ceremony in the port of Moji, his greatest feeling was relieved, not reluctant.

Seeing that Zhao Gongzi and his fleet were slowly disappearing into the sea level, Lao Wang turned around and smiled at Dao Xue: "Let's go, go back and see our lovely Chiyo!" After the New Year, we will clean up the dragon temple house! ”

"Hey." Dao Xue responded, took out the white jade Guanyin given by Zhao Gongzi from his sleeve, and his longing for his daughter was overflowing.

~~

The warship slowly sailed away from the Guanmen Strait.

In the cheerful triumphant song of the soldiers, Zhao Gongzi and his eldest nephew stood in the stern tower with relaxed expressions, looking at the island country that was getting farther and farther away.

"The biggest regret this time is that I didn't see the ...... of Oda City" Zhao Shizhen never forgot his uncle's first beauty in Japan.

"Next time, definitely." Zhao Gongzi looked at his persistent eldest nephew, and said in his heart that next time he came back, it would be almost time for Asai Nagamasa to be forced to commit suicide, and Ah Shi took his three daughters back to his parents' house.

The eldest nephew is going to stage a surviving series? It's exciting to think about.

ps. The outline is not straightened out, and the first two are more ha.
