After the end of the decisive battle between Uenohara and the Wa Kingdom, Zhu Youxiao ordered the whole army to rest for a day.

After all, after getting rid of the Kwantung and Kwanti coalition forces of the Japanese country, the current Japanese country basically has no power to resist.

is like a delicate woman from a good family, facing a group of robbers who broke into her home, there is no hope of turning the tables at all.

Therefore, Colonel Zhu You and the officers and men of the Royal Navy Combined Fleet are now very comfortable in their hearts, and they have completely let go of the last bit of worry in their hearts.

Next, it is only necessary to wipe out the remaining and small resistance forces of the Wa State, and take the Wa State, a country with a large territory and a large population, into a direct jurisdiction of the Ming Empire.

Even, just now, Zhu Youxiao had already asked the big golden eagle and the big gold, with his own secret will, to let Yan Yingyuan, the chief manager of the Ming Empire, send hundreds of civil officials and hundreds of craftsmen to prepare to come to accept the government affairs of the Japanese state, and vigorously promote the implementation of the two major national policies.

Of course, the garrison regiment must also be formed immediately, and come to the Wa Kingdom together with those civil officials and craftsmen.

This is for sure, at most, in a month or two, the Ming Royal Combined Fleet, which has completed its mission, will leave the territory of the Wa Kingdom, no, Yingzhou.

The two fleets are going to join the Royal South China Sea Fleet and carry out the next expedition to the southern seas of the Ming Empire.

Then, the gap that remains must be filled by a garrison corps.

Only under high pressure can the Japanese people be tamed and turned into an inseparable part of the Ming Empire.

After all, without the leadership of the shogunate samurai and generals who fought to the end, the people of the Wa Kingdom would no longer have any power to resist when the armed forces of the whole country were completely wiped out.

After a long time, some inner resistance and resistance will be completely eliminated under habit.

At that time, the ordinary people of the Wa Kingdom will become the real people of the Ming Empire, just like the Goguryeo Kingdom.

And this is also the only way to completely eradicate the hidden danger of the Japanese state.

Otherwise, you only need to kill them all.

However, the tens of millions of people in the Japanese country are full of mountains and forests, how long and what month do you have to kill to be able to kill the tens of millions of Japanese people?

Therefore, the latter strategy is not advisable and difficult to do.

A day later, the 150,000 Ming Empire expeditionary force that set out from Taniguchi on the east side of Uenohara came to Edo Castle with a banging of gongs and drums all the way.

At this time, it was early morning, and the snowflakes finally stopped this morning.

Even the long-lost sun showed a smiling face in the sky.

The bustling winter sun shines on the soldiers' bodies, although there is no temperature, but it makes people's mood particularly happy, and the smiling faces also bloom on the young faces of the soldiers.

Five miles away, the huge outline of Edo Castle had already revealed its true face on the horizon ahead, and the soldiers reined in their horses, stopped, and quietly looked at the largest city in the Japanese Kingdom.

Zhu Youxiao didn't have any expression on his face, and rode on the back of Xiaobai, a snow-stepping god horse.

Looking at the huge city in front of him, an inexplicable look flashed in his eyes: Edo, this is Edo City!

This huge Edo Castle. That is, the capital of the later Japanese Invaders - Tokyo!

Tokyo!

Zhu Youxiao pronounced the name fiercely in his heart.

is not infatuated with the women here, let alone yearning for the prosperity of the previous life here, Zhu Youxiao has only one reason for the name: a wish in the past life and this life, that is, one day, the horse will set foot in Tokyo.

When Zhu Youxiao had just crossed into this world and learned that he had returned to a plausible late Ming Dynasty and had become an emperor, he already had this idea - to step on Tokyo.

But as long as I am a descendant of Yan and Huang, but all my big man, as long as he is not a traitor lackey or national scum, no one wants to have a horse in Tokyo.

There is no hot-blooded man, who doesn't want to return the humiliation that the Japanese once put on his head, and return it untouched!

"Hoo ......"

After staring at the big city for a while, Principal Zhu You breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart was full of taste.

Although time and space are now dislocated, with their own efforts, the history of this world has completely changed.

Although the Japanese in this time and space only made the coastal waters of the Ming Empire unstable, it did not bring any humiliation to the Ming Dynasty.

The Japanese who used to suffer from the southeast coast were not supported by the Wa Shogunate, but were just the actions of some ronins who could not tolerate the Wa Kingdom. Fire Book Bar

But even so, Zhu Youxiao did not intend to change his original intention.

Zhong Jixiang rode a big black horse, slowly approached Zhu Youxiao, and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the front is Edo Castle, and the next step is ......." ”

"No, it's no longer called Edo, it's called Tokyo!"

Zhu Youxiao replied indifferently, "From today onwards, Edo will officially change its name to Tokyo. ”

"Tokyo?"

Zhong Jixiang said with understanding, "The Ming Empire originally had Nanjing and Beijing, if Luoyang is changed to Xijing, and then Edo is changed to Tokyo, then the four capitals are all together." ”

"Xijing?"

Zhu Youxiao didn't expect this, he was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said leisurely, "Xijing will have it." ”

"But Luoyang? I'm afraid that it won't be able to become the Xijing of the Ming Empire, and the Xijing of the Ming Empire should be in the farther west. ”

After that, Zhu Youxiao stopped talking nonsense with him, jumped off from Xiaobai's back, turned around, and said to Zhong Jixiang behind him: "Order, immediately convene all the generals at the regimental level and above, and convene an emergency military meeting." ”

"Obey the order!"

Zhong Jixiang gave a military salute on horseback, and suddenly agreed, leading the order to gallop away.

……

Inside Tokyo Castle, the Shogunate's Palace.

Hearing that the Ming Expeditionary Force was about to be killed outside the city, a shogunate daimyo who was in charge of staying behind was already in a hurry to jump to his feet!

But this time, he just wanted to find someone to ask for instructions, but he couldn't find it.

Tokugawa Iemitsu, the shogunate elder Sakai Tadayo, the old Naka Doi Toshikatsu, and Aoyama Tadatoshi, these core figures of the shogunate, are now nowhere to be found.

The news of the defeat of the two major armies of the Kwantung and Kwantung armies came back.

But Inaba Masayoshi, Matsudaira Nobutsuna, Higata Masamori, and Toda Shitetsu are also not there, which will really make people panic.

"Your Excellency, it's not good, the army of the Ming Empire has surrounded Edo City!"

Just as he was in a hurry, a high-ranking samurai of the shogunate hurriedly ran in and knelt on the ground to report.

"Ahh Finished! Our Great Japanese Empire is over! ”……

The daimyo sat down on the ground, looking up and screaming!

Originally, after the Tokugawa shogunate decided to carry out Armageddon, it was not easy to assemble an army of 800,000 shogunates.

In the battle of Uenogahara, it suffered heavy losses, almost all the troops were annihilated, and in the end, less than 10,000 people fled back to Edo, and the rest of the army was completely annihilated by the Ming Expeditionary Force.

Today, there are less than 20,000 troops left in Edo Castle, and it is already stretched thin just to defend the castle.

With this little army, how to resist the onslaught of the Ming army?

What's worse is that now that the Ming Dynasty army has been killed outside the city, it will be too late to organize the strong men and people in the city to resist.

After being stunned for a moment, the person in charge of the Japanese kingdom now in Tokyo City had a thought in his mind: surrender! So far, there is only one way to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

If you surrender to the Ming Dynasty, you may be able to save your life, and the Tokugawa shogunate may be able to continue to survive.

Doesn't the Han people have an old saying, called to stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood?

As long as his life is saved and the blood of the Tokugawa shogunate is continued, everything can be started again.

However, this general of the Japanese State did not know that Zhu Youxiao did not intend to give them any chance at all, let alone surrender.

This time, Zhu Youxiao was determined to eradicate the Tokugawa shogunate, and even more determined to set foot on Tokyo and eliminate all the resistance forces in the Japanese country.

He wanted to turn the Wa Kingdom into a state capital of the Ming Empire, how could he give the Tokugawa Shogunate a chance to surrender?

It can only be said that he thinks too much about this daimyo of the Wakoku who guards Edo Castle.
