The words of Chu Lian, the commander of the Ming army, stirred up a thousand waves, and the Ryukyu general Wu Ning's eyes immediately widened.

What does Daming mean by this, didn't he clearly state that he did not support the Ryukyu coup and only recognized the Ryukyu royal family? But now what does this sentence mean, is it a temptation or something!

Wu Ning's face was changeable, he couldn't understand what Chu Lian meant by saying this, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Why didn't General Wu speak, this is an opportunity, if you miss it----" Chu Lian didn't continue, but his smile had a deep meaning, making it difficult to guess what he was thinking.

"What does Company Commander Chu mean by this?" Wu Ning calmed down for a moment, looked at Chu Lian and asked.

Without thoroughly figuring out what Chu Lian meant, Wu Ning didn't want to reveal his true thoughts, but at the same time, he also knew that this was a rare opportunity, an opportunity to be recognized by the Ming Dynasty, and he didn't want to give up this opportunity no matter what.

"What do you mean? Hehe, the meaning is very clear, didn't General Wu launch a coup d'état and take control of the Ryukyus? Speaking of this, Chu Lian smiled quite proudly before continuing: "Ryukyu is just a small country that cannot be smaller than the Ming Dynasty, and its strength is weak, but after all, the Ming Dynasty is the suzerainty of Ryukyu, if General Wu wants to control Ryukyu, it is impossible without the support of the Ming Dynasty, does General Wu think so?" ”

Wu Ning's face changed again, indeed, although there are many islands under the jurisdiction of Ryukyu, there are not many places that are really inhabited, with a population of less than 200,000, not to mention compared with the Ming Dynasty, even compared with the neighboring Wa Kingdom and North Korea, it is a small country that can not be smaller, especially now that the Ming Dynasty has just conquered Korea and the Wa Kingdom, there is only one Ming left in the Ryukyu Quartet, plus the powerful fleet of the Ming Dynasty, it is impossible for Ryukyu to disobey the Ming Dynasty, and there is no strength to disobey the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Wu Ning gritted his teeth and said with a resolute expression: "The Shang family, the king of Ryukyu, has been corrupt and incompetent all these years, only knows pleasure, and does not care about the life and death of the people, and has already lost the hearts of the people, Ryukyu should no longer be in their hands, why should I replace it!" ”

Seeing Wu Ning admit it in person, Chu Lian smiled.

"What General Wu said is that the emperor is actually the same attitude, the king of the Ryukyus has done nothing over the years, is corrupt and incompetent, regardless of the life and death of the people of the Ryukyus, the emperor has also heard that the king of the Ryukyus is naturally not suitable to continue to control the Ryukyus, General Wu is indeed a suitable candidate, but >

"But what? Please also ask Commander Chu to make it clear! Wu Ning's heart jumped, and he stared at Chu Lian and said.

Chu Lian's eyes narrowed slightly: "But the emperor has no intention of setting up another king of the Ryukyus, now that Korea and the Wa Kingdom have been destroyed, and only the Ryukyus are left in the East China Sea, it is really inappropriate!" ”

The corners of Wu Ning's eyes jumped violently, what is called inappropriate, he has already heard what Chu Lian meant, Da Ming wants to annex Ryukyu and bring Ryukyu into the direct jurisdiction of Da Ming!

Wu Ning didn't think wrong, Da Ming really didn't want Ryukyu to continue to exist, it was very simple for the Ming Dynasty to destroy Ryukyu, but since the founding of the country, Ryukyu has been regarded as the suzerainty of the Ming Dynasty, and pays tribute to the Ming Dynasty every year.

Originally, Zhu Ciji planned to find the second prince Shangzhi who fled outside the Ryukyu king, and realize the wish of the Ming Dynasty to annex the Ryukyus through Shangzhi, but now the situation has changed, and the Ming Dynasty saw a more convenient way than the second prince Shangzhi from Wu Ning.

Wu Ning launched a coup d'état in order to take revenge, and at the same time he also had his own ambitions, Da Ming just had scruples about the Ryukyu King, after all, the Ryukyu King was originally canonized by the Yongle Emperor, there was no good excuse, the Ming could not directly do it to the Ryukyu King, but Wu Ning, who launched the coup d'état, was different, if the Ryukyu royal family was wiped out by Wu Ning, regardless of whether Wu Ning was self-reliant or not, the Ming Dynasty had an excuse.

Destroying the Ryukyu royal family directly through Wu Ning's hands is undoubtedly more morally justified than the Ming Dynasty looking for the second prince Shangzhi, and sending troops to occupy Ryukyu through Shangzhi.

This is not hypocrisy, between countries and between nations, and between nations may secretly do everything, dark and dirty, but on the surface there must still be a reason, at least not as a last resort, and there can be no reason for future generations to have dirt.

Now Da Ming directly appointed Chu Lian to negotiate with Wu Ning, hoping to get Wu Ning's support, so that things will become very simple, and even Da Ming will not have to use a single soldier.

Wu Ning's face was gloomy, his face was pale, knowing Daming's calculations, he had to be angry, no matter how he said that he was also a Ryukyu countryman, although he had a deep hatred with the Ryukyu King Shang family, it did not mean that he hoped that Ryukyu would be annexed and destroyed.

"I persuade General Wu to think about it, it is impossible for the will of the Ming Dynasty to be shaken, and no one can stop it, General Wu's momentary decision-making mistake may be related to the safety of General Wu's family!" Although Chu Lian said it with a smile, it was not difficult to hear the coldness in his words.

Wu Ning's heart was shocked, and he felt powerless.

He knew that Chu Lian was not scaring him, the Ming Dynasty was too huge, it only took less than a month to destroy Korea and then the Japanese Kingdom a few days ago, and now that the Ming Dynasty has also moved the mind of annexing Ryukyu, then Ryukyu has no possibility of resisting.

After thinking about it, Wu Ning also figured it out, no matter what, revenge and destroying the Shang family is his first priority, although he can't realize the ambition in his heart, but as long as he can take revenge, it's not unacceptable.

In recent years, the Ming Dynasty re-paced the internal and external troubles to dominate the world, the Ming Dynasty is still in front of the people, the life of the people of the Ming Dynasty is much better than that of the Ryukyus, many policies to benefit the people are impossible to achieve in a small Ryukyu, if the Ming Dynasty can treat the people of the Ming Dynasty as they do not distinguish each other from each other, for the people of the Ryukyu to become a Ming people than to continue to be the people of the Ryukyu people is much happier.

Moreover, the main thing is that although he controlled the Ryukyus through a coup d'état, there are still many people in the Ryukyus who support the Ryukyu King Shangjia who may fight back at any time, he searched the entire Ryukyus and did not catch Shangzhi, there is no trace of those people, once one day Shangzhi counterattacks, those people will also jump out, he may not be able to defeat Shangzhi, if he fails, the martial arts will inevitably be wiped out, and if he agrees to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty at this moment, it will be different, Shangzhi will not be able to set off any storms, and he may also make contributions to the Ming Dynasty, In the future, it is not impossible to be crowned an official in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

Finally, after a long struggle, Wu Ning chose to compromise and fully cooperate with Da Ming.

"Company Commander Chu, the emperor is merciful, I am willing to include my Ryukyu in the Ming Dynasty, which is the blessing of the people of the whole Ryukyus, Wu Ning supports it, and is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses!" Wu Ning voted.

"Good! Hahahaha, General Wu really understands the righteousness, Chu admires! Chu Lian said with a laugh.

Immediately, Wu Ning and Chu Lian closed the door and conspired.

On December 13, under the vigorous search of Wu Ning, the second prince of Ryukyu was desperate and took the initiative to find the Ming soldiers under Chu Lian.

That night, Shang Zhi's whereabouts were leaked, and hundreds of men in black broke into the garrison of the Ming soldiers and killed Shang Zhi, and it was rumored that the men in black were sent by Wu Ning, but Chu Lian did not react to this, just mourned Shang Zhi.

On the 14th, upon hearing of Naochi's death, the King of the Ryukyus fainted in the palace and died the next day! With the death of the Ryukyu King and the second prince Shangzhi, the Ryukyu royal family was cut off.

On the 16th, Wu Ning established himself as the new king of the Ryukyus in the Ryukyu royal palace without the approval of the Ming Dynasty.

On the 17th, the new Ryukyu King Wu Ning ordered the Ryukyu army to wipe out the remnants of the Shang family, and the Ryukyu royal family was completely cut off.

On the 19th, Wu Ning, the king of the new Ryukyus, suddenly presented a letter of state to the Ming Dynasty, expressing his willingness to give up the throne and lead the Ryukyus to merge into the Ming Dynasty.

On the 25th, Emperor Zhu Ci of the Ming Dynasty issued a holy decree to recognize the status of the new Ryukyu King Wuning, and accepted the request of the new Ryukyu King Wuning to agree to the merger of the Ryukyu Kingdom into the Ming Dynasty. Wu Ning was named the Duke of the East China Sea, and the Duke of the Kingdom was allowed to live in Nanjing City for generations!

At this point, with the incorporation of the Ryukyu Kingdom, all East Asia was occupied by the Ming Dynasty, and East Asia was unified, and the Ming Dynasty's eyes would also be withdrawn from the direction of the East China Sea and aimed in other directions.
