Chapter 579: The Wokou Dispatch Troops

"Shogun, this is really God helping my great Japan, the Ming invaded Korea, and North Korea sent an envoy to ask for help from my Japan, my great Japan can take this opportunity to send troops to Korea, and after defeating the Ming Dynasty, you can swallow Korea and expand the territory of my great Japan!" A high-ranking shogunate dressed in a samurai uniform and about to hang a katana said excitedly to Tokugawa Iemitsu.

The name of Japan has long existed, but it is just the name of the Wako themselves, and the surrounding Ming Dynasty, Korea, and even the Ryukyus are used to calling the Wakoku Kingdom.

"Yes, the shogun, God help me to Japan, and I implore the shogunate to agree to send troops to Korea!"

"I beg the shogunate to agree to send troops to Korea!"

More than ninety percent of the top officials of the Wako shogunate stood up and pleaded with Tokugawa Iemitsu, the master of the shogunate.

The Tokugawa family was the head of the Tokugawa family, the master of the shogunate, and the high-ranking officials of the shogunate called him the shogun, and he was also called the shogun of the Seiyi to the outside world.

Tokugawa Iemitsu looked at the excited high-level shogunate, in fact, he himself was extremely excited, and he preferred to send troops to help Korea resist the Ming army, as for what would happen after resisting the Ming army, but he could guess by looking at the fierceness in the depths of his expression.

North Korea's move is indeed very likely to lead the wolf into the house.

Tokugawa Iemitsu was about to open his mouth to agree, when suddenly a conservative person stood up and raised objections to him.

"The shogunate, as we all know, the Ming Dynasty is rich in resources, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi was defeated because of the battle with the Ming Dynasty, and was finally dragged down and defeated, do we Tokugawa Shogunate want to follow in the footsteps of Toyotomi Hideyoshi to fight against the Ming army?"

This man cited Toyotomi Hideyoshi's failures as a warning to everyone.

Over the years, it was precisely because of the defeat of Toyotomi Hideyoshi that the Tokugawa family had the opportunity to destroy the Toyotomi family and take over the Toyotomi family to control Japan.

Tokugawa Iemitsu's brows immediately furrowed, a little annoyed, as if he had been poured a basin of cold water as soon as his blood started.

"Ridiculous!"

A full number of radicals who were fighting the main battle angrily pointed at the conservative and shouted: "If we don't send troops to Korea and don't want to attack more territory, do we want our Yamato nation to stay in these four islands of Honshu facing water for generations, and endure hurricanes every year?" ”

The situation of the territory of the four islands of Honshu is destined for most of the Japanese to want to go out, invade other countries, and occupy the territory of other countries.

The most ideal place for the Japanese to attack and occupy was undoubtedly the nearest Korea.

"North Korea asks for help from our Great Japan to jointly fight against the Ming Dynasty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime good opportunity for our Great Japan, once such an opportunity is missed, let North Korea be occupied by the Ming Dynasty, it is difficult to guarantee that the Ming Dynasty will not take the initiative to attack our Great Japan next!"

"At the beginning, Toyotomi Hideyoshi led 200,000 Warring States elites to fight fiercely with the Ming Dynasty for seven years, if it were not for the Korean help, Toyotomi Hideyoshi would not necessarily be defeated, it may be the Ming Dynasty, and now the situation is reversed, the Ming Dynasty is like the Toyotomi Hideyoshi of the year, and my Japan is like the Ming Dynasty, North Korea in turn has become the helper of my Japan, as long as the Ming Dynasty is defeated, North Korea is in the pocket of my Japan, can you let go of this golden opportunity?" After the man finished speaking, he looked at the other widows around him.

"Koizumi-kun is right, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and we must not let it go!" Someone immediately stood up in support.

"Troops must be sent to North Korea!" More people are coming forward in support.

The main battle faction must have accounted for more than ninety percent, and in an instant, the main peace faction, which had a very small number of people, was completely suppressed, and the voice of the radical main battle filled the entire council hall.

After the rage, all the Japanese looked at Tokugawa Iemitsu.

The blood in Tokugawa Iemitsu's heart ignited again, he was already inclined to send troops, and there was no hesitation at this moment, yes, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was able to fight hard with the Ming Dynasty in North Korea for seven years, and today and the situation has been reversed, the Ming Dynasty is no longer united with North Korea, but the Great Japan and North Korea are united, after decades of recuperation, the strength has long been much stronger than the original Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and the hope of victory is still great.

"Yo Si! I am in favor of sending troops to North Korea! Tokugawa Iemitsu also stood up and made a decision with a sinister face.

At the beginning, after the shogunate defeated the Toyotomi family, it chose a state of semi-seclusion, in addition to feeling that the Ming Dynasty was strong, knowing that it was unable to expand the territory under the nose of the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time afraid of being retaliated by the Ming Dynasty, there were some other reasons, now after so many years, those reasons are gone, and the Ming Dynasty, the specific situation of the Ming Dynasty They are not very clear, but for more than ten years, they have also heard about the rise of the Manchurians, the Ming civil strife, the Ming Dynasty seems to have just pacified the world in the past two years.

Tokugawa Iemitsu expected that after so many years of civil strife, the vitality of the Ming Dynasty must have been depleted a lot, and it was a good opportunity for Japan to rise up and unite with Korea to defeat the Ming Dynasty, and then take the opportunity to annex Korea.

After deciding to send troops to Korea, in order to confuse the Koreans, Tokugawa Iemitsu still sent people to negotiate terms with the Korean envoys, and began to mobilize troops, horses, and ships.

In the end, the result of the discussion was that the Japanese sent 150,000 troops, and the DPRK gave the Japanese a total of 2 million taels of silver in military expenses over the next 10 years.

The conditions were very simple, and they were negotiated within a day, so fast that the Korean envoys felt a little unreal, but fortunately, the Japanese agreed to the soldiers' assistance.

After about eight days of preparation, the Japanese urgently mobilized 70,000 elite shogunate troops in Edo as the first batch of reinforcements to land in Korea in advance, and the second batch of 80,000 people will be mobilized in the next ten days.

At the same time, for the follow-up war, and the smooth annexation of Korea after the defeat of the Ming Dynasty, Tokugawa Iemitsu also ordered the conscription of more samurai and ronin into the army, and it was not a problem to build an army of four or five hundred thousand people with a population of 7 million Japanese invaders.

On July 20, the seventh year of Zhongxing in the Ming Dynasty, the Japanese invaders collected hundreds of ships and began to transport the first batch of 70,000 Japanese troops to cross the Korean Strait and land in Korea.

"Koizumi-kun, General Tokugawa sent Koizumi-kun to command the first batch of 70,000 shogunate elites to land in Korea in advance this time, this is absolute trust in Koizumi-kun!" A Japanese general said to Junshiro Koizumi in a flattering tone.

"Yo Xi, my Junshiro Koizumi is naturally loyal to General Tokugawa, this time Japan sent troops to Korea, and he will definitely get the care of Amaterasu, successfully defeat the Ming Dynasty, and then annex Korea!" Junshiro Koizumi said.

"I heard that some flower girls in North Korea are no worse than Edo Mihime, and after the annexation of North Korea, those flower girls are not allowed to be enjoyed by Koizumi-kun." The man complimented again.

This really goes to Junshiro Koizumi's heart, and the beautiful flower girl is his favorite.

"Yo-shei, Yo-shei!" Junshiro Koizumi smiled lewdly and patted the Japanese general on the shoulder and said, "When the time comes, I will definitely not forget you, Yamaki-kun!" ”

That mountain wood was overjoyed.

Immediately, the two would-be robbers looked at each other and smiled lewdly.
