XXXVII. Current situation in Yingzhou

……

"You said that you are the monarch of Yingzhou, do you have a certificate?"

Liu Ce naturally wouldn't easily believe Oda Sachiko's words, after all, the king of a country, even if it is a fanbang, he must confirm it carefully.

"Hey, please wait a moment!"

When Sachiko Oda heard this, after agreeing, she took out a piece of jade silicon from her arms, put her hands above her head, and asked Liu Ce to come and confirm.

Lu Yu stepped forward and took the jade silicon from Oda Sachiko's hand and handed it to Liu Ce, Liu Ce knew that this jade silicon material was not something that ordinary people could have, and the texture on the jade silicon was clear, combined with the finely crafted samurai swords submitted by the security department before, it was definitely not something that ordinary Yingzhou people could have, and he couldn't help but believe it a little bit in his heart.

"Since you are the king of a country, you should take a seat and speak, and there is no need to make this big salute......," Liu Ce said to Sachiko, who was kneeling on the ground.

"Thank you, Governor......" Sachiko Oda thanked and sat back in her previous seat, and soon someone exchanged it for a new cup of tea.

Oda Sachiko smelled the fragrant tea, and was very satisfied, and his heart was worthy of being a great country of etiquette, and he knew that this tea was the best choice when he smelled it.

Seeing this, Liu Ce only smiled slightly, and then said to Oda Sachiko: "Forgive the military governor for being presumptuous, I don't know how to call you now?" ”

Oda Sachiko hurriedly said: "Lord Governor, let's call me Sachiko, now that I am adrift, I really have no face to mention the identity of this monarch." ”

Liu Ce nodded, and then said to him: "In that case, then Miss Sachiko, you and I should tell me in detail about the situation in your country, so that the military governor can consider whether he should prepare to send troops to help you regain the throne." ”

"Thank you, Lord Governor! Sachiko will definitely know everything about the Governor! ”

Oda Sachiko's posture is very standard, and she is not carried away because Liu Ce is a little polite to herself, and her years of wandering and wandering have long let her know how to survive, especially in front of the strong, and now her only capital is that acceptable posture and respectful attitude.

Under the narration of Sachiko Oda, Liu Ce and others had a new understanding of that place in Yingzhou.

According to Sachiko, the four islands of Yingzhou today are very similar to Liu Ce's previous life during the Warring States Period of Japan, but there are many strange existences that subvert their three views......

First of all, the territory of Yingzhou is the size of two Japan in the previous life, but this is useless, because the same place is that Yingzhou and ancient Japan are the same, either volcanoes or earthquakes, or from time to time there are a few tsunamis to change the familiar taste, anyway, how bad and bad the living conditions are.

However, due to the relatively short maturity cycle of grain crops in this world, although the four islands of Yingzhou are short of food, they can barely make nearly 40 million people on the island barely eat half full, at least they will not starve to death easily.

As the saying goes, poor mountains and bad waters make the people poor, this sentence is used in any era, any place, any country, even if it is a change of space.

Soon, some people began to be dissatisfied with the days of eating only one meal a day, thinking that they wanted to live a fairy life of eating and sleeping peacefully, but there was only so much food, and when the food was about to mature, they would give you a few earthquakes and tsunamis plus volcanoes or something, and everyone would collapse. So what to do? If you want to survive, you can only rob the food in the hands of the people around you.

Soon, from the beginning of the strong robbing the weak, the weak could only stare dryly, to the weak and small to resist, repelling the strong and defending their own rations, and then to the later feng shui in turn, the weak side became strong and began to grab the strong family, until the last "village chief" with "heavy soldiers" was born.

And after several generations of changes, the warrior ronins around Yingzhou are all very brave and ruthless, and their psychology is also extremely distorted and perverted.

Nowadays, there are about 1,000 "village chiefs" in the entire four islands of Yingzhou, as long as they climb the heights, scatter a few bags of grain, and gather a hundred and ten people to dare to call one of the princes, and even proclaim themselves kings.

After hundreds of years of development, it has become not only a fight for food survival, but has become an indispensable habit in life, and has become a "fine tradition".

Of course, among these many princes, some "village chiefs" were no longer satisfied with simply fighting and killing, and gradually grew in the process of destroying the village, until it developed into tens of thousands of people, and something called ambition began to arise in their hearts.

In the process of these "princes' melees", some "village chiefs" gradually became a certain scale, especially the four major forces were the strongest, namely the Shimazu family, the Miyamoto family, the Haneda family and the Ito family, among which the 80,000 soldiers under the command of the Shimazu family were the most powerful, and the existence of these families directly threatened the power of the Yingzhou monarch over the country.

So what is the strength of the monarch of Yingzhou? I'm sorry, but compared with the history of Japan's Warring States period that Liu Ce knew in his previous life, it was about the same, or even far worse, than the status of the emperor before the fall of the Tokugawa shogunate.

In the capital of Yingzhou, the army in Kyoto City basically has no other troops except for the king's 5,000 forbidden troops and the royal escort, which is still the heyday.

It's not that the monarch of Yingzhou is unwilling to recruit more troops and horses to enhance his strength, but he is really not rich in money and food, and there are so many royal bureaucrats who need to spend, and over time, when they find that the surrounding village chiefs have suddenly become behemoths, they are powerless to check and balance, and gradually become puppets between major families.

After Liu Ce had a general understanding of the chaotic situation in Yingzhou, he quickly understood that the Yingkou pirates along the coast of the south of the Yangtze River were all composed of samurai merchants who lost their livelihood and land after the war, and they came to the coastal areas of the Great Zhou Dynasty at the risk of being made into adult meat sushi by the shark king eight in the sea.

Oda Sachiko continued: "Originally, with the continuous efforts of the royal family, the tense situation in Yingzhou has been controlled, but three years ago, a handsome but very strange Central Plains man suddenly appeared in Yingzhou.

What he said was so hard to understand, and his appearance pushed all parts of Yingzhou, which had seen the dawn of peace, into the flames of war again, and the situation was more serious than before.

I don't know what method he used, first let Shimazu Hongxiu raise troops again, until he took control of the whole of Kyoto, and forcibly proclaimed himself a general, but he was still not satisfied with his status, and wanted to become the new monarch of Yingzhou, so he hit Sachiko with his idea......"

"That's strange......" Qin Mo raised his doubts, "Miss Sachiko, you said that the Shimazu family has already controlled the entire Kyoto City, and if you want to be the monarch at this time, you can't stop it at all, right?" ”

Oda Sachiko shook his head and said: "This official, you are not familiar with the atmosphere of my Yingzhou, no matter how weak the royal family is, it is still sacred in the hearts of the people in the country, once someone usurps the throne or murders by inappropriate means, it will be besieged and condemned by princes and people from all walks of life.

Although the Shimazu family is strong, it is not strong enough to deal with the other three families and the rest of the princes at the same time, so he wants to obtain the status of king by marrying the royal family and giving birth to royal heirs.

And this practice is orthodox and recognized by everyone in the country, and no one else will say anything, but I don't want my Oda family to decline and dissipate like this, so I tried my best to escape.

Then I used my influence to gather thousands of rebels loyal to the royal family on Kira Island, but in the end I failed.

I thought Sachiko was desperate and would die, but the Central Plains man suddenly appeared in front of Sachiko to guide Sachiko to go overseas to seek the power to restore the country, and I decided to lead the guards loyal to the royal family to start fleeing overseas to seek refuge from all sides.

But the countries around him were weak and unable to help Sachiko realize his dream of recovering the country, and when he left Ryu to seek new help and shelter in Equestria, he encountered a hurricane.

After more than a month of wandering at sea, in the end, only me and four loyal royal guards were left, and only to be rescued by the military governor, Sachiko expressed her sincere gratitude......"
