Whose debt is owed?

There is a basis for Tsubaki's words, and he is referring to the third war between China and the island nation.

Historically, China has fought a total of five wars with the island nations:

The first was the Battle of the White River Estuary. In 659, Baekje attacked Silla, Silla asked the Tang Dynasty for help, Tang Gaozong sent Su Dingfang to lead an army of 130,000 to conquer Baekje, Silla responded with 50,000 elite soldiers, and the combined forces of Tang and Silla quickly defeated Baekje and captured the Baekje king Yici. Fukushin, the second son of King Yoshiji, collected the remnants and attempted to restore the country, and in 660 he asked for help from the island country.

On August 13, 663, the combined forces of Baekje and the island nations, with more than 400 warships, engaged the combined forces of Tang and Silla at the mouth of the Baekgang River. At that time, the Tang and Silla coalition forces had only 170 warships, and their troops were also at a disadvantage, because the island country and Baekje overestimated their own advantages, despised the strength of the Tang and Silla coalition forces, and fought blindly, resulting in a great defeat, more than 400 warships were burned, most of the soldiers were drowned, the remnants of the army surrendered, and the Baekje country was destroyed.

The second was the war between Yuan and the island nation. After the establishment of the Yuan dynasty in the Central Plains by Kublai Khan, who had separated the island nation from diplomatic relations with China for four centuries from the late Tang dynasty to the establishment of the Yuan dynasty by the Mongols, he planned to change this situation and make the island state subject to the Mongols in the same way as other regimes and peoples. In order to achieve this goal, the island nation was asked to surrender unconditionally, Kublai Khan counted

The envoys were sent to the island country, but they were all rejected by the island country.

Enraged, Kublai Khan once again sent important envoys to the island nation and demanded that the island country pay tribute, otherwise he would resort to force. The island nation not only rejected Kublai Khan's request and executed the envoys, but also actively planned an expedition to Goryeo.

Kublai Khan had no choice, he in the eighteenth year of the Yuan Dynasty (1281 AD) on the grounds that the island country killed the envoys, gathered 100,000 people who surrendered in the Southern Song Dynasty to form a large army, and the troops were divided into two ways to conquer the island country, one route was Hongchaqiu, Xindu led 40,000 Mongolian, Goryeo, and Han troops to cross the sea from Goryeo; The other route was Atahai, Fan Wenhu, and Li Ting led the new annexed army to sail from Qingyuan and Dinghai with 9,000 ships.

Because Kublai Khan's Mongol army was unable to develop its cavalry superiority in the landing operation, and because the contradictions between the Han, Mongolian, and Korean divisions at that time were unable to carry out effective coordinated operations, the expedition ended in failure, although it was huge.

The third time was when the Ming Dynasty sent troops to aid Korea in the battle against Toyotomi Hideyoshi, which was called the "Imjin Patriotic War". After the island nation was largely unified in 1588, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the prime minister of the island nation, decided to send troops to acquire more land in May 1591 in order to appease the dissatisfaction of the samurai in the country with the uneven distribution of land. In June 1591, he sent an envoy, Zong Yizhi, to inform the Joseon king, Seonjo Yi Hao, that he intended to attack the Ming Dynasty in the spring of 1592 under the pretense of Korea, and asked for his assistance.

North Korea is a vassal state of China, how can it be borrowed? Toyotomi Hideyoshi officially began the war against Korea in April, citing North Korea's refusal to attack the Myeong.

The Ming Dynasty sent the general soldier Li Rusong to lead 50,000 troops into the Korean battle, and worked closely with the Korean army to crush the aggressive ambitions of Toyoda Hideyoshi.

The debt that Tsugari Nobumasa said was referring to this war.

Due to the crossing of the high mountains, neither the Fourth War (the First Sino-Japanese War) nor the Fifth War (War of Resistance Against Japan) occurred again.

Standing on a platform in the central square, Tsugarsu Nobumasa said loudly: "When our army was in Korea, it was burning and looting all the way, and in Jinju alone, we slaughtered as many as 60,000 people. Some of you participated in the massacre of North Korean civilians, right? A sixtieth century has passed, and all of you who have survived are already in their old age, right? Now, people have come to us to pay off the blood debt, and it is time to repay the sins you did back then. ”

The crowd in the audience was in an uproar, and someone shouted: "We don't want to die, why do we want to die!" ”

"Quiet! Be quiet! Tsugaru Nobumasa shouted as he gestured.

The soldiers were also helping to stop the commotion, and after another gust of wind, the crowded square finally quieted down.

Tsugaru Nobumasa continued: "If you don't want to die, follow the king of this domain to take up the weapons in your hands, go to the city, and fight the enemy bravely, I promise you that as long as you can ensure that the city will not be broken for three days, our reinforcements will arrive, and your life can be extended." Subjects, in order for us to survive, all take up arms and plunge into the battle against Huaxia! Victory belongs to the brave, and we can only fight to the death to win the right to live! ”

His agitation really had a great effect, and many young people in the square crowded forward one after another, asking to join the army's battle sequence.

Tsugaru Nobumasa once again agitated: "Subjects! This time, the army from Huaxia is not tens of thousands, but hundreds of thousands, if you want to defend Aomori, it is useless to rely on a few young people, it must be the whole people to participate in the war, regardless of men, women and children, must join this battle, only in this way, we can have hope of life. ”

The square resounded with a slogan:

"We're willing to fight!"

"Defend Aomori to the death!"

"Swear to live and die with Aomori!"

……

Tsugaru Nobumasa's agitation meeting had a miraculous effect, and he asked everyone to go back immediately to prepare, and in order to boost morale, he promised the people that the three-day meal of the royal palace was all covered.

At this time, the temperature dropped suddenly, the sky began to rain with ice, and people fled in all directions, and Tsugaru Nobuyashi also returned to his home, preparing to arrange the next military operation.

Returning to the vassal palace, Tsugaru Nobumasa immediately arranged manpower, and carried out a specific division of labor, allocating a few generals to be responsible for organizing the common people to go to the city wall to fight, and ordered people to open his family's granary and take out all the stored grain and distribute it to the people who participated in the battle.

After doing all this, the exhausted Tsugaru Nobumasa returned to his dormitory, and his wife respectfully knelt at the door to greet him.

"Master, dinner is ready, do you want to eat now?"

His wife had just turned thirty, with a plump and colorful figure, an orange kimono and a gorgeous tuft of flowers, and the collar and cuffs were inlaid with gold threads.

She didn't wear underwear inside, she was in a kneeling position, the mountain-like peaks were half hidden and half exposed, and as a husband, he couldn't help but have itchy palms when he saw it. He temporarily suppressed the impulse in his heart and stepped into the threshold with a cold face.

She followed him with broken steps, and Tsugaru Nobumasa suddenly stopped, turned around, and asked with a little warmth, "Have you eaten it?" ”

"I didn't eat the heavy duty, and the concubine didn't dare to eat first."

"Let's eat together today!" Tsugaru Nobumasa said while wearing a wide coat.

She hurriedly stepped forward to help her husband, and since she was not wearing underwear, two big fat rabbits wandered under the eyes of Tsugaru Nobumasa from time to time.

The meal was brought in by the servant, and the meal was very simple, a plate of pickles, a plate of fish, and it was rare for the husband and wife to eat at the same table like this, and the lady felt flattered, and she ate a lot of this meal.

After the two of them were full, Tsubaki Xinzheng didn't say a word, and directly pressed his wife on the chair to enjoy the joy of fish and water.

After finishing the matter, the lady who was just doing the body was ready to clean up, but Tsugari Nobumasa was still so indifferent, and said, "You don't have to clean up, you don't have to do anything today." ”

"Master, the concubine is willing to do everything for you."

Tsugaru Nobumasa glanced at Madame with his spare eyes, then picked up the light blue kimono ribbon placed on the side of the chair and said, "Very good, you can go and hang yourself now, just use this ribbon." ”

Madame's eyes lit up with horror: "Master......"

Tsugaru Nobumasa is still so cold: "The enemy is about to attack the city, we have no reinforcements, you and I are going to die here, all of our people in the city will die, none of them will survive, you are the first person in Aomori to die, I will also go with you, so don't complain, the whole city will die, you are just lucky to walk in front of them, die in front of me with dignity, I will collect your body well and bury you." ”
