Chapter 274: Peace

"Wait, General, and temporarily calm the anger of the thunder, things are abnormal, there must be a reason, this group of Ming rebellion is probably not so simple, the old minister believes that Lord Matsudaira will not dare to deceive the general.

The question now is not accountability, but how to resist the thieves, to put it mildly, maybe we have to think about how to end the war with dignity. ”

Sakai Tadashi saw that Tokugawa Iemitsu was about to be angry again, and hurriedly dissuaded him, and bluntly talked about the issue of admitting defeat.

"Since these thieves are so powerful, will they end the war easily?" Tokugawa Iemitsu asked Sakai Tadashi rhetorically. Of course, Tokugawa Iemitsu wanted to end the war with dignity, but the question was whether he said it or not, and the initiative was in the hands of the other side.

"Not necessarily, speaking of which, the war was provoked by our country, that is to say, those thieves did not want to annex our country, and our Great Japanese Dynasty was not as vast and sparsely populated as Ezo Island, and they were few and could not swallow it.

But...... It's good to say that the war has not started, neither side knows the depth, this fight, they may think that our army is just like this, maybe the requirements will be a little high, otherwise there will be a threat of war. Sakai Tadashi judged like Zhuge Kongming.

"If that's the case, without further ado, Sakai-sama, you can go for yourself! It depends on what conditions they want, if the other party wants to pay compensation, they can bear it appropriately, and you have to fight for the rest, and try not to frustrate the majesty of our great Japanese dynasty. Sakai's words strengthened Tokugawa Iemitsu's determination to sue for peace, and he asked him to do it by name.

Sakai Tadashi was miserable in his heart, he was defeated and sued for peace, and he still didn't want to frustrate the majesty of the Great Japanese Dynasty, how did you tell him to do it? Did he just go and give the order for an armistice?

But the idea was put forward by him, and it was a matter of national security, so he could only take a hard trip.

"Come on, take Matsudaira Nobutsuna, a criminal minister, down and hold him in strict custody, and then be tried after the war is over."

After making his decision, Tokugawa Iemitsu ordered loudly.

"Hey!" The two guards bowed and walked over to take Matsudaira Nobutsuna down.

The Japanese wanted to sue for peace, but the Black Armor Army did not know that in these two days they did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but firmly occupied the place of Karumsu, and bent on crossing the strait with the rest of the troops and people.

It was not easy for those tens of thousands of war horses to cross the strait, and it took two days to do it.

Also, at the first time, the brilliant victory of nearly 200,000 enemies annihilated in the first battle was also quickly reported to Yang Wenli.

Yang Wenli had long expected the victory of the troops, so there was no mobilization and martial law in the country, but such a disparity and such a brilliant victory still made him very happy.

At least it proves that his thinking is right, all battles must not be forced, and if you want to do it, you must be crushed, the soldiers' personal technical combat ability, advanced weapons and equipment, advanced tactical thinking, advanced army building concepts, etc., etc., all of this is to achieve the necessary conditions for crushing, and the Black Armor Army has done it.

The victory is gratifying, but Yang Wenli is not too happy, why? To put it bluntly, he didn't want to annex Japan at this time.

There are two reasons, the first is that the Japanese are large and narrow, the people are generally poor, and the resources are poor, and the science and technology are backward, and the annexation of it is tantamount to adding a heavy burden to the nascent Far Eastern Kingdom.

The second is that the Han Chinese in the Far East are now in the minority, and if they occupy Japan, tens of millions of Japanese will cause structural harm to their rule.

With these two points alone, he had enough reason not to want to annex Japan prematurely.

Based on this consideration, Yang Wenli wrote a letter back to Yang Rentian and several people on the front line.

"Hello to the vast number of soldiers who are struggling in a foreign land!

I already know the brilliant victories you have created, and I am very relieved! Congratulations!

Judging from the military strength of the two armies, it is true that our army can easily occupy Japan, but I repeat that annexing Japan at this time is not my blessing, and it will do more harm than good.

In addition, I would like to change my previous decision, the current shogunate system in Japan is beneficial to me, and it is not appropriate to overthrow the rule of the shogunate, so I can end the war after appropriate punishment.

……”

Yang Wenli wrote thousands of words in a wide range of words, emphasizing the existence of Japan and the rule of the shogunate, the shogunate's imminent policy of seclusion and seclusion, which made Japan not develop for hundreds of years, and the Edo shogunate was a loose government, and the local daimyo had considerable independence and could easily wage war, so that Japan was in civil strife for many years.

Such a Japan is a good Japan, and if Japan takes advantage of the situation to unify and there is a situation of the Meiji Restoration, that is something that Yang Wenli absolutely does not want to see.

Therefore, he changed his mind and only wanted to punish the Tokugawa shogunate slightly, and if he went too far, the Tokugawa shogunate would surely fall.

Not only could the Tokugawa shogunate not collapse, but if necessary, he also had to help maintain the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate, serve as a major military supporter of the Tokugawa shogunate, and fight whoever disobeyed, and resolutely supported Tokugawa Iemitsu's policy of closing the country to the outside world.

Yang Wenli is also bad enough, but this is the kind of naked interest relationship between the two countries, and the other is ignorant and backward, and it is the favorite of the other country.

Yang Wenli's latest instructions were quite timely, and just as Sakai Tadashi came to sue for peace under the white flag, Yang Rentian wanted to open his mouth and ask the local daimyo and shoguns who participated in the invasion to investigate the "crime of starting a war", and the messenger shouted to report it.

"Report ...... Your Majesty, Your Majesty's latest directives, please read them quickly. ”

Yang Rentian took the imperial decree, withdrew from the tent first, tore it open and looked at it, he couldn't help but be frightened into a cold sweat, he almost made a big mistake, it turned out that this unlucky Edo shogunate was very beneficial to the Far Eastern Kingdom, and it was not appropriate to punish him too much.

In addition, Japan is barren and poor, and there are no good things except silver and gold, so Yang Rentian made a decision after a little consideration.

Walking into the tent again, Yang Rentiangao sat cross-legged according to the head, and said to Sakai Tadashi, who was nervous in his heart, with a cold expression: "What's that...... Sakai, Japan is only a small state, and it is an unforgivable sin to dare to invade my mighty Far Eastern Kingdom! According to the intention of the general, it was necessary to hit Edo, capture the emperors such as Tokugawa Iemitsu and Er, and severely punish them.

However, my Majesty the King is benevolent and virtuous, and in the case that the two countries are neighbors and is a first-time offender, he can open up to the Tokugawa family, but you and other small states dare to call themselves emperors, isn't it pleasant to smile and be generous, the first condition of our country is to wait for the emperor, and change the title of "Emperor Wa" during the Han Dynasty of China, and everything else can be preserved under the old system.

However, Japan was at fault first, and had to be punished a little, and Xiaoyu Er must be called a minister and always be a subordinate of Pan. At the same time, Japan can also recognize the power of the Edo shogunate as the only legitimate government in Japan.

In addition, the army was dispatched, the grain and grass went first, and the war was triggered by the unprovoked invasion of Er, and the third condition of our country was to make economic compensation to Japan, the amount of which was: one million taels of gold and ten million taels of silver.

These three conditions are non-negotiable, and our army only gives you three days to reply, and if it is not fulfilled within the time limit, our army will step on Edo, and then the Tokugawa shogunate will be in ashes......
