Chongzhen left with some disappointment, Zhu Yunwen looked at his distant back, shook his head silently, and his divine sense probed into the cave dzi, and when he saw that Zhang Yan was cultivating, he withdrew his divine sense and paid attention to the east of the Ming Empire.

Shoken and Abatai, who set foot on Kagoshima, did not have a good face for Shimazu Mitsuhisa, the daimyo of the Satsuma Domain of the Wa Kingdom, who came to welcome them ashore.

There is no mood to pay attention to the low voice, and there are even some high-ranking figures in the Daimyo Mansion of the Satsuma Domain, such as Shimazu Mitsuhisa and Shimazu Mitsumitsu, who are servile.

Under the leadership of Xiao Fengyi and others of the special operations team, they went straight to the residence of Shang Feng, the king of the Ryukyu Kingdom who had died of illness, and prepared to escort Shang Feng's body that was still in the residence to the warship and send it back to Ryukyu for burial.

What made Shimazu Mitsuhisa and others panic, in addition to Shang Feng and Abatai, who were surrounded by everyone and had very ugly faces, there was also a team of soldiers with advanced weapons of the Ming Empire, who took over the defense of Kagoshima Castle unreasonably.

It was not until Shang Feng and his Ryukyu team, with the highest level of etiquette in the former Ryukyu Kingdom, welcomed Shang Feng's body back to the warship, and was escorted by Mao Taijiu and Kim Si Yi from Kagoshima Castle and sailed to the Ryukyus.

With tense faces, Shangxian and Abatai motioned for Shimazu Mitsuhisa to lead the way towards Shimazu Mansion, the daimyo of the Satsuma Domain.

The Shimazu Prefecture has been taken over by the Ming army, and all the Ashigaru samurai from the Daimyo Mansion have been escorted to the square in front of the mansion. Seeing this scene, Shimazu Mitsuhisa's face was gloomy and ready to drip.

It's just that Shimazu Mitsuhisa, who was furious in his heart, did not dare to raise objections to the behavior of the Ming army. Just the fact that he saw the huge warship on the sea was enough for him to not have the idea of resisting the army of the Ming Empire.

The saying that those who know the times are Junjie, Shimazu Mitsuhisa still understands. endure the calm for a while, and confront the Ming Empire's army at this time is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

It's just that Shimazu Mitsuhisa didn't expect that since the Ming Empire set foot on Kagoshima, it would not leave again. Moreover, Kagoshima was only the first step of the Ming Empire's invasion of the Wa Kingdom.

After entering the Shimazu Mansion, Abatai asked Shang Feng to sit in the first place, turned around and nodded lightly to Xiao Fengyi, and also sat down next to Shang Xian.

Shimazu Mitsuhisa's face turned blue, and he held back his anger and was about to walk to the tatami mat to sit down. Xiao Fengyi stretched out his hand to stop him and said coldly: "Shimazu Daimyo, please also kneel down to greet the holy message of His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire." ”

Mitsuhisa Shimazu's eyes were red, his mouth was panting, and his face was a little scary. It's a pity that Xiao Fengyi was not afraid, he just looked at Shimazu Mitsuhisa coldly, waiting for his choice.

Shimazu Mitsutsu hurriedly took Shimazu Mitsuhisa's hand, for fear that the head of the family would make a mistake at this time, collide with the Ming Empire's Qincha, and bring painful consequences to the Satsuma Domain.

The air was silent for a while, and the atmosphere became solemn. Shimazu Mitsuhisa finally lowered his head panting and slowly knelt on the ground. Shimazu Mitsutsu and several people also knelt down, nodded their heads to the ground, and listened to the holy oracle of His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire.

"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said: The Ryukyu Kingdom, a vassal state of the Ming Empire, has been peaceful for a hundred years, and lives and works in peace and contentment. However, ignoring the majesty of our Ming Empire, the Japanese invaded the Ryukyu Kingdom brazenly......"

Xiao Fengyi's cold voice sounded in the hall, and Shimazu Mitsuhisa and the others, who were kneeling on the ground, were more shocked the more they listened, and the cold sweat on their faces was dripping faster and faster, and they were about to wet the ground in front of them. Until Xiao Fengyi reads:

“…… Today, Shang Xian, the son of the Ryukyu Kingdom, thought about his mother country, withdrew the name of the vassal state of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and led all his subjects to return to the Ming Empire, the territory of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and merged into the territory of the Ming Empire.

Therefore, he was given the title of Shangxian, the son of the Ryukyus, as the king of the Ryukyus of the Ming Empire, entered the dynasty to participate in politics, and gave the capital a palace. Shimazu Mitsuhisa, the daimyo of the Satsuma Domain of the Wakoku Kingdom, had no way to make my father the Ryukyu King of the Ming Empire, and he died in a foreign land......"

"Wronged!"

Shimazu Mitsuhisa was immediately anxious when he heard this, looked up at Shang Feng who was in the first place, and shouted with red eyes: "Lord Wang, Lord Wang, Ling Zun really died of illness." The foreign ministers have never neglected Ling Zun in their treatment of Ling Zun......"

Shang Feng snorted coldly and said, "No matter what, my ancestor died of illness in the territory of your Satsuma Domain. Besides, if it weren't for the invasion of the Ryukyus by your Satsuma clan and the abduction of your father, how would you have let your father die in a foreign land? You, the Satsuma Clan, are the culprit! ”

Abatai sneered and said on the side: "Knowing that the Ryukyu Kingdom is a vassal state of my Ming Empire, your Satsuma Domain dares to invade brazenly, and you also dare to exile the Ryukyu King to Kagoshima." For this alone, your Satsuma clan is guilty of unforgivable.

However, there is a virtue in heaven. My emperor of the Ming Empire didn't give you a way out of the Satsuma Domain. From now on, as long as your Satsuma Domain is separated from the Wa Kingdom and incorporated into our Ming Empire, as the Daimyo of the Shimazu family, you can still continue to enjoy the glory and wealth.

But in the matter of Prince Shang's father, you, as the daimyo of the Satsuma Domain, still need to make necessary compensation. Of course, it depends on whether I, the King of the Ming Empire, are willing to accept your compensation. ”

Shimazu Mitsuhisa's heart shook violently, and the meaning of the words of the Marquis of the Eastern Sea of the Ming Dynasty was obviously to include the Satsuma Domain in the territory of the Ming Empire.

Now what? Resist? Shimazu Mitsuhisa quietly looked at the heavily armed soldiers of the Ming Empire around him, and a cold shiver broke in his heart.

But if you don't resist, the Satsuma Domain will be annexed by the Ming Empire like this? Just like the Satsuma Domain annexed the Ryukyu Kingdom? The cold sweat on Shimazu Mitsuhisa's face was like rain, and he was in a hurry, but he had no idea.

Shimazu Mitsumitsu and the others trembled slightly, but they were frightened. This time, the Ming Empire did not simply support the Ryukyu Kingdom at all.

The current Ryukyu Kingdom has been incorporated into the territory of the Ming Empire, and even Shangxian, the son of the Ryukyus who should have become the king of the Ryukyus, is now the king of the Ryukyu Empire!

The most obvious thing is that the Ming Empire wanted to use the Satsuma Domain's invasion of the Ryukyus as an excuse to invade the Wa Kingdom. The Satsuma Domain is just an introduction, after swallowing the Satsuma Domain, the pace of the Ming Empire's conquest is the entire Wa Kingdom.

Perhaps, now there is another invincible army of the Ming Empire, which has blatantly stepped into the territory of the Wa Kingdom from other places and began to conquer the Wa Kingdom.

Surrender! Must drop surrender! If the other daimyo want to resist, let them resist bravely and die bravely.

Shimazu Mitsutsu raised his head sharply and looked at Shang Xian in the first place: "Lord Shang, the ancestor of my Shimazu clan of the Satsuma Domain, was originally a descendant of the First Emperor of the Great Qin Empire in the Central Plains, and he was already in harmony with the blood and water of the Central Plains.

Now returning to the Ming Dynasty is just a return to the roots, recognizing the ancestors and returning to the ancestors. The invasion of the Ryukyus was the work of the previous head of the Shimazu clan, and I, the Shimazu clan, am willing to pay a hundredfold and a thousand times the compensation.

His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire issued a holy edict, and my Shimazu clan was willing to be the forerunner of the expedition to the Wa Kingdom. I only ask the two lords, Prince Shang and the Marquis of the East China Sea, to say a few kind words in front of His Majesty the Emperor, and leave my Shimazu clan blood. ”

Shimazu Mitsu sat on his knees for a long time, the whole person was stupid, he never thought that his family elder would say such a thing.

Shimazu Mitsutsu looked at the heavily armed soldiers of the Ming Empire in the hall in fear, and glanced at Shimazu Mitsuhisa. Shimazu Mitsuhisa suddenly woke up, and now he surrendered to the Ming Empire, and he could save the life of his whole family.

Or resist, there is undoubtedly only a dead end! In that case, let's save my life first.
