Chapter 155: Let the Wokkers Settle the Wakos

ばかやろう! This is a very typical Chinese dialect, typical to the extent that Yang Shaofeng can understand it.

Then Yang Shaofeng laughed, and after laughing, he simply ignored the two brothers of Ge Cheng Erlang, just stood up calmly, and then walked towards the door of the cell, and said with a smile: "I'll go get a sheep to roast it, these two Japanese slaves belong to you, and when I roast the sheep, I hope both of them can sign and draw a pledge." ”

Heartless and sympathetic: "Don't worry, our family guarantees that as soon as you put the sheep on the shelf, these Japanese slaves will sign and draw the pledge." ”

Wu Ming glanced at Yang Shaofeng, glanced at Zheng Ge Chengerlang and Zheng Ge Chenggoro with pity, sighed and said to Wuxin: "Is it the father-in-law who comes first or the lowly position who comes first?"

Wuxin smiled and said: "Guests are as you like, this is Jinyiwei, naturally you came first, and our family also happened to see how Jinyiwei's means were." ”

Wu Ming smiled softly, turned to the long table on the other side, grabbed a torture instrument casually, and commanded the captain of the Jinyi Guard in the torture room to tie up Zheng Ge Chengerlang to the torture table, and then walked over with a sneer.

Zheng Ge Chengjiro shouted, "Kill me!" Kill me right now! ”

The composition of the Japanese is very complicated, like the two brothers of Zheng Ge Cheng Erlang, they belong to those wandering warriors who can listen to and speak the official dialect of the Ming Dynasty, and even know a few Chinese characters, so they can probably understand the confessions prepared by Yang Shaofeng.

This so-called confession is basically what Yang Shaofeng roughly said, and then Wu Ming and Wuxin led people to make it out - once the black materials of the emperor and the shogunate were made out of nothing, it is estimated that Erlang and Wulang will have to become dead wolves, at least, the entire Wa Kingdom and the places where there are Wa slaves cannot accommodate them.

Therefore, Zheng Ge Chengerlang would rather be killed than sign and draw on this so-called confession.

Yang Shaofeng was not worried about the two brothers Ge Chengerlang and Ge Chengwulang daring not to sign and draw.

Wu Ming was familiar with the various methods of Jinyiwei, but he had no intention of being familiar with the various methods in the palace, and it was really easy to make the two brothers Zheng Ge Chengerlang and Wulang submit.

Before the screams of Zheng Ge Chengerlang sounded, Yang Shaofeng went directly out of the torture room, and after coming to the courtyard of the prison edict, he directly grabbed a handful of treasure money that was always valuable, and casually found a Jinyi guard lieutenant and asked him to help get a sheep to roast and eat.

has money, the treasure money of the consistent face value is directly grabbed and handed out, and he doesn't even count, such a local tyrant has a very good relationship with Ji Gang, the big head of Jinyiwei, and his future father-in-law is also a big man in one of the fourteen thousand households of Jinyiwei, plus the emperor's order, even if Yang Shaofeng wants to get a pig in the edict to have a pig-killing banquet, it is estimated that no one will refuse.

Waiting for the bleating sheep cake to be brought back, several lieutenants began to kill the sheep and bleed, marinate them with the ingredients they had just prepared, and then someone went to prepare the firewood.

After looking at it for a long time, Yang Shaofeng slowly walked towards the torture room.

When Yang Shaofeng returned to the torture room, the two brothers of Zheng Ge Chengerlang, who had just just begged for a quick death, did not have any injuries on their bodies, no blood on their faces, and were honestly pressing their handprints with trembling hands, only the cold sweat and clenched teeth on their foreheads could prove what kind of treatment these two people had suffered.

Yang Shaofeng walked to the chair and sat down, and said with a smile: "You see, what the official said was to sign and draw the charge earlier, otherwise there would not be so many things."

Don't hate your officials, let alone them, if you think about the twenty leaders of the Japanese in the third year of Yongle, you will know how grateful you are to your officials. ”

As soon as Yang Shaofeng mentioned the twenty pirate leaders, the bodies of Zheng Ge Chengerlang and Zheng Ge Chenggoro trembled significantly, and even the speed of signing and drawing was obviously a little faster.

In the first year of Yongle, Zhu Laosi sent Zhao Juren, a pedestrian Zhang Hong, and a monk Daocheng to envoy to the Wa State, but before waiting for the departure of these brothers, the envoys sent by the Wa State had arrived in Ningbo, and arrived in Nanjing in October of the same year.

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the shogun of Muromachi, held talks with the envoys sent by Zhu Laosi based on the advice of the monk Zua and the Hakata merchant Fattomi, and finally decided to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty so that he could trade with the Ming Dynasty.

The two sides decided to issue a charter called "Kan Junction" from the second year of Yongle as a voucher for trade, and only ships with such certificates could trade.

Subsequently, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu accepted the canonization of Zhu Laosi, and proclaimed himself "King of Japan" in the second year of Yongle, and the Wa Kingdom also returned to the vassal system of the Ming Dynasty.

In November of the same year, the envoys of the Japanese state sent Zhao Juren and others back to Nanjing, and at the same time, the Ming side also conveyed to the envoys of the Japanese state, asking Ashikaga Yoshimitsu to capture the Japanese invaders entrenched in Tsushima and Iki Island, so as to eliminate their plundering of the inhabitants of the Chinese coast.

Then Ashikaga Yoshimitsu ordered an army to arrest him, captured 20 of his leaders, and sent them to the Ming Dynasty in November of the third year of Yongle, saying that for the sake of friendship between the two countries, these 20 Japanese were to be punished by the Ming Emperor.

Regarding Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's knowledgeable and interesting behavior, Zhu Laosi immediately reciprocated by ordering someone to return the pirates to the envoy and bring them back, saying that these twenty Japanese were Japanese and should be dealt with by Ashikaga Yoshimitsu.

And then came.

After the envoys returned to Ningbo, they had no intention of bringing these 20 Japanese leaders back to dispose of them, but in order to show their loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, they simply steamed these 20 Japanese leaders alive on the shore.

The problem is that the Muromachi shogunate did not have the ability to completely subdue some powerful daimyo in some of the local areas of the Wako, so it was impossible to eliminate the soil for the breeding of the Wakos, from the first year of Yongle to the sixth year of Yongle, during which the invasion of the Wako on the Ming Maritime Frontier did not stop, and the Ming Dynasty's investment in preparing for the Wa Guards did not decrease, but the number and intensity of the Wako troubles were slightly less than in the later years of Hongwu, and they did not pose a substantial threat to the security of the Ming Haijiang.

In December of the sixth year of Yongle, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the lord of the Wa Kingdom, hung up, and the Ming Dynasty canonized his son Minamoto Yoshinori (that is, the fourth general of the Muromachi Shogunate, Ashikaga Yoshimori) as the new lord of Japan.

However, Ashikaga Yoshinori was completely different from Ashikaga Yoshimitsu and immediately changed his tributary policy towards Ashikaga Yoshimitsu Daming after his accession to the throne, not only did he no longer want to pay tribute, but reused the Japanese pirates to plunder the Chinese coast.

Then the Ming Dynasty was very dissatisfied, and sent an envoy to give a serious warning to Yuan Yizhi's behavior, asking him to continue to arrest the Japanese and prohibit them from invading the Ming Dynasty.

Ashikaga Yoshimochi, who was threatened by the Ming Dynasty's diplomacy for the first time, was instigated, and then quickly arrested some Japanese and sent them to the Ming Dynasty in April of the eighth year of Yongle to calm down the situation.

However, to Ashikaga Yoshimori's great surprise, after receiving the Japanese pirates sent by him, the Ming not only did not blame him for his previous crime of refusing to pay tribute, but also sent an envoy Wang Jin to Japan in February of the ninth year of Yongle and gave him a generous gift, "to thank the Japanese government for its action of suppressing the pirates."

Then the common disease of the Japanese tribe buried deep in the bones of Ashikaga Yoshimochi flare-up - if you don't beat me, it means that you are cowardly!

On the one hand, the arrival of Wang Jin made Ashikaga Yoshimoru look down on the weakness of the Ming government; On the other hand, he was worried that Wang Jin would report to Emperor Yongle about his indulgence of Japanese pirates after returning to China, and was afraid of attracting military retaliation from the Ming Dynasty, so Ashikaga Yoshinori conspired with his subordinates to simply find a way to prevent Wang Jin from returning to the court.

Later, after Wang Jin secretly boarded the ship and returned from another sea route, the two sides were completely torn apart, and the Japanese shogunate no longer paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty, but instead obtained the wealth of the Ming Dynasty by encouraging pirates to plunder, and the exploration and trade between the two sides was interrupted.

And Zhu Laosi and the court of the Ming Dynasty did not want to use force against the Japanese State at this time - part of the Ming Dynasty's energy was on the Tatars and Warats on the grassland at this time, another part was on Jiaozhi, and part of it was on the Western Ocean, where was there still extra energy to engage in such a broken place as the Japanese State.

Especially the treasury in charge of Xia Yuanji, the treasure money was not worth much at that time, Zhu Laosi also used troops abroad for many years, and the silver in the treasury was less than one million taels for many years, and there was no way to support the military operation against the Japanese state no matter what.

In this way, the final result was that the Japanese who had been slightly restrained during the Ashikaga Yoshimitsu period had revived in the coastal area of the Ming Dynasty, and then it has been until today.

However, no matter what, Yang Shaofeng mentioned the twenty Japanese leaders in Yongle for three years at this time, and he still scared the two brothers Zheng Ge Cheng Erlang and Zheng Ge Cheng Wulang enough.

After all, it is rumored that the twenty Japanese leaders were personally steamed to death by the Japanese envoys, and their bodies were thrown to feed the dogs......

After the two of them signed all the confession documents, Wu Ming turned to Yang Shaofeng and said to Young Master Yang: "Champion Yuangong, these two people have signed, but the remaining forty-one, the humble position has not had time to let them sign." ”

Yang Shaofeng smiled and said, "Don't worry." The two brothers, Seijiro and Seigoro, changed into clean clothes, and then used the old hen to boil some ginseng soup to replenish their bodies.

When their bodies are almost recovered, let them go to the remaining forty-one Japanese slaves to sign and draw a pledge, and we don't have to get too involved in their affairs. ”

Wu Ming hadn't figured out what was going on, so he smiled unintentionally but sadly: "The champion is smart!" ”

Seeing Wu Ming's bewildered face, he unintentionally explained with a smile: "If our family makes a move with Wu Baihu, those Japanese slaves may not be willing to sign and draw a pledge, and they will have to waste some effort."

But in exchange for the two brothers Zheng Ge Chengjiro and Zheng Ge Chenggolang, things are much easier, whether the remaining Japanese slaves are willing or not, it has nothing to do with us, the champion is smart! We admire! ”

Yang Shaofeng laughed, got up from the chair, and while walking out, he instructed Wu Ming: "The rest of the things are much easier, put away their confessions, and after they have settled the remaining Japanese slaves, let them come to see me."

As for now, the mutton cake outside has been baked, we have to eat it while it's hot, and I have already seen the bottle of fairy drunk on your body! ”
