There are very few grain fields on the Falklands, so it can be said that the materials are very poor. Therefore, if you want to survive, you must trade with foreign countries. The object of trade can only be North Korea. Therefore, although the two feudal clans also participated in the war against Korea of the Japanese kingdom that year, after the war ended, they actively negotiated with Korea to resume trade.

Through the efforts of two generations of Tsushima feudal lords, and through the mediation of Zong Yoshisei and his father, trade relations with Korea were finally re-established in Busan.

Therefore, Zong Yicheng can be said to know the DPRK very well and knows what the situation is on the DPRK side now.

When the Korean state was destroyed, most of the Koreans were either plundered or killed, and the rest fled into the mountains and forests as bandits, hid on the islands as pirates, and the weak ate the strong, and the old, weak, sick and disabled were basically eliminated.

For the Tsushima Clan, the only ones who could harass them were the Korean pirates. Don't really say it, don't look at the Tsushima Domain as the daimyo of the Wa Kingdom of 100,000 stones, but this Tsushima Domain is actually very weak, and it is the master that can be bullied by North Korea. Those Korean pirates can't survive, so they will naturally bully this pair of horses.

At this time, Zong Yicheng and Busan, opposite the way of nature, was the garrison of the army of the Great Japanese Kingdom, not to mention the army, and there were thousands of warships in the naval division alone. With such a large number of troops, generally speaking, the Korean pirates will definitely flee as far as they can.

But now, with the rumbling of artillery, such a large-scale artillery bombardment, the Korean Haikou did not have the strength at all, and they could only roar the warships of the Great Japanese Naval Division. And what about the object, who else can it be other than the North Korean pirates? Thinking of this, he wondered, could it be that the Great Wa Naval Division was bored and used the Korean Haikou to train his hands, so that when he went to the north in the future, he could have more confidence in the Ming National Naval Division?

No matter how much he thought about it, he didn't expect that the Daming Water Division would appear here so soon, and take the initiative to attack the Wa Guo Water Division.

Therefore, when Zong Yicheng saw it, he almost couldn't believe his eyes, and hurriedly confirmed to the left and right: "Who has good eyesight, look at the attacking warships on the other side, what is the origin?" ”

Although his eyesight is not very good, he can still tell whether it is the warship of the Japanese Navy Division.

"My lord, that's the warship of the Great Ming Naval Division!" When one of his old attendants heard this, he immediately said in great surprise, "Besides, apart from the fact that the Great Ming Naval Division has so many warships, there are no other forces here!" ”

Speaking of this, he paused and then added: "My lord, you were not born, and the Great Ming Water Master once came here. Their sailors can see it by looking at it from afar. ”

"Da Ming Water Master?" Zong Yicheng was also taken aback when he heard this, no matter what, he couldn't imagine why the Daming Sailor suddenly ran to the southernmost tip of the Korean Peninsula, so he said suspiciously, "You old thing, old eyes are dizzy, I'm afraid you are wrong, right?" If it's the Daming Naval Division, you calculate the time, isn't it possible that the Great Wa Kingdom has just landed in North Korea, and they have already set off to run, is this possible? ”

In order to prove that he was not wrong, he added: "If you say that you happen to come over, it will be fine, but look at it, such a big fight, will it be a coincidence?" It must have been done deliberately, that is, to attack the sailors of the Great Wa Kingdom! Look at this posture, maybe I've been waiting for a long time to have this sudden opportunity! ”

Emperor Chongzhen didn't hear their conversation, otherwise he would definitely boast about his golden finger.

What is the most important thing in fighting a war? Is it that the army has not moved, and the grain and grass go first?

Wrong!

The most important thing is the news! If you can get reliable news from the enemy in advance, even if there is no food, there will naturally be an enemy to send it!

As long as you have reliable information in time, basically half of the war will be won, or more. As a result, they often attack unprepared and start wars, and build a strong captive, right? It's not the destruction of the country! What's wrong with your Japanese country, you still have to press and beat, let these Japanese people taste all kinds of tastes that the former Jianguo tasted!

If you don't have this golden finger, to be honest, it is really not so easy to destroy Jianyu or conquer the Japanese state.

Someone once proposed that in the five years of Pingliao, Emperor Chongzhen did it, but he didn't do it, there is a possibility that the person's golden finger has not been activated, or something has failed.

At this time, Zong Yicheng, within the scope of his understanding, said this, it was not unreasonable, and immediately won the nod of his other subordinates.

When the old man saw it, he was immediately overjoyed, and he didn't dare to say anything to Zong Yicheng, so he shouted to those accomplices: "Come on, come, who will bet with me, one hundred taels of silver, it belongs to the Ming State Water Master, give me one hundred taels of silver, not the Ming State Water Master, I will pay one hundred taels, and I will never repay the debt!" ”

Although Tsushima was very poor in materials, there was a lot of silver, and many people were already suspicious, fearing that there was a mountain of silver that had not been discovered. In the original history, when the son of Zong Yoshinari became the lord of the domain, he finally got his wish and excavated Sasu's silver mountain.

However, although these widows were rich, they still had a lot of silver when they were a hundred taels of silver, and when they heard that he was so sure that they were going to bet, no one dared to speak.

And Zong Yicheng also believed his words, and couldn't help but be shocked: "So, Da Ming discovered the attempt of the Great Wa Kingdom so quickly, and he had already sent troops to fight him, so ...... That ......"

"My lord, the Great Wa Kingdom Sailor is definitely going to be finished!" The old man didn't have much surprise and said, "I think that when the Great Wa Kingdom was strong, it was defeated by the Daming Water Division, and now adults didn't expect the Daming Water Division to appear, and I believe that the Busan side would definitely not think of it." Now that it is blocked by the Daming Water Division, I think it will definitely be wiped out! ”

Hearing that he was a little disrespectful to the Great Wa Kingdom, Zong Yicheng was not angry, or he didn't care at all, but thought along with this statement, if the Great Wa State Water Division was served by the Da Ming Water Division, what would happen to the Great Wa State army in North Korea? Will so many people be able to escape? If you can't escape, the strength of the Great Wa Kingdom will be greatly reduced, and maybe the Tokugawa shogunate will not be able to suppress the daimyo from all over the country, and even if one is not good, another Tokugawa Ieyasu will come out!

Thinking about it so deeply, although Zong Yicheng's eyes were staring at the other side, he didn't see it in his mind at all, but his mind turned sharply: This is a change that has not been seen in the Great Wa Kingdom for decades, and it is a very critical time for Tsushima Island to go!

How much loyalty this Zong Yoshinari had to the Tokugawa shogunate, that was not.

When he was in the eighth year of Chongzhen, he was discovered by the shogunate that he had dealings with Lee's Joseon and had forged the national letter, and was facing the danger of being changed. It was only now that the master of the shogunate, that is, Tokugawa Iemitsu, felt that the little Tsushima clan did not pose any threat to him at all, and finally ruled to punish the old Yanagawa of the family, and the clan was saved from being changed.

The Zongjia did this, in fact, it was also determined by the basic situation of Tsushima.

Zong Yicheng was thinking about it, when suddenly, he heard someone scream in surprise: "My lord, look, my lord, look, fire, fire, it's burning!" ”

Zong Yicheng came back to his senses, took a closer look, and sure enough, he saw the direction of the Busan port opposite, and he could already see the firelight. Needless to say, there are warships on fire, and the fire is not small, which should be due to the fact that there are many warships that have been burned.

"Hehe, you don't even need to look at it to know that it must be the Daming Sailor who has attacked it, and their arson ship is beginning to show its might!" The older man looked at him and smiled, then saw that the feudal lord and the others were looking at him, and then explained, "You may not know that arson has always been the greatest skill of the Great Ming Water Master. Let me tell you, there are two kinds of ships that are often used for arson! ”

Speaking of this, seeing that the others didn't interrupt, his interest was even higher, and he even stretched out his finger to count: "First, the Daming Sailor has a serial boat, which is light, about four zhang long, and looks like a boat but is actually a second ship. The front ship occupies one-third, and the rear ship occupies two-thirds, and the middle is connected by two iron rings. The front ship has a number of large inverted whiskers, carrying fireballs, divine smoke, divine sand, poisonous fire, and fire guns, and the rear boat is carrying soldiers with oars. In wartime, sail straight to the enemy's line, pin the front ship to the enemy ship, and light all kinds of firearms, and at the same time release the iron ring, and the rear ship can return to the sea. ”

Speaking of this, he scolded at the Busan side before continuing: "The rear ship has returned, the flames of the front ship have swirled, and the enemy ship has been burned. ”

No one interrupted him, so he stretched out another finger and said: "There is also a kind of boat in the Daming Sailor, called the mother boat, which is also light, the mother ship is three zhang five long, two zhang in the front, and one zhang five in the back, only the two sides of the gangway, hollow, there is a small boat, there is a cover plate, there are four oars to row, and it is tied to the mother ship with ropes." The mother ship has firewood, oil, gunpowder and fire. During the war, the mother ship quickly approached the enemy ship, nailed it together, and set the mother ship on fire and the descendants returned in the sub-ship. ”

Speaking of this, he summed up with a little pride: "Since the Daming Sailor took the initiative to attack the Wai Sailor in the port of Busan, there must be quite a few of these two kinds of ships. You see, it's not working, is it? ”

Everyone, including Zong Yicheng, looked at the port of Busan, it was already in flames, and the fire was bigger than just now, and they couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

After a while, one of them suddenly asked the older accomplice, "How do you know so well?" ”

Hearing this, this person finally showed a trace of fear and said: "After the defeat of the Korean war back then, I was afraid that the Ming Dynasty would take advantage of the victory to pursue and not forgive the Japanese country. Therefore, for the situation of the Daming Water Division, it was hard to investigate. But fortunately, Da Ming didn't mean this at that time. ”

Speaking of this, after he paused, he looked at Zong Yicheng and said, "I just don't know if this time, Da Ming will take advantage of the victory to pursue?" ”

Seeing the surprised look of the feudal lord, he added: "My subordinates have heard an old saying from the Ming Dynasty, but one is indispensable, and the sect master has the heart to deal with it!" ”
