244 It was all a foregone conclusion
In response to Xiao Ruxun's angry shout, the surrounding Ming army raised their fire guns and swords again, staring at Maeda Toshiya menacingly, Xiao Ruxun's big camp suddenly heard the rumbling war drums and the roar of the soldiers, and the generals of the Ming army stared at Maeda Lijia fiercely, angry, amazing, full of sharpness, Rao is Tokugawa Ieyasu has been pretending to be a turtle and has not been able to accept all this calmly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This is the Ming army that defeated and destroyed his hope of dominating the world, how can he not hate? How can you not complain?
It's just more of a fear, the loss of 30,000 people has lost the courage to dare to go against the Ming army, at least now, at least in the past few years, he doesn't have the courage to fight the Ming army again.
To put it bluntly, the moment the war drums sounded, Maeda Toshi's family softened, and the elite of his own family was tens of thousands, according to the elite level of the Ming army, if he really wanted to fight, he had no chance of winning, after all, the example of Tokugawa Ieyasu was in front of him, in other words, it was certainly not good to let Tokugawa Ieyasu get a chance to recuperate, but he didn't need time to recuperate? Don't the remnants of the Toyotomi clan need a little time to recuperate and unite internally?
Thinking about the current chaotic situation within Toyotomi, Maeda Toshiya really has no confidence to say that he can easily clean up the internal centrifugal forces and external enemies, and the internal forces of Toyotomi have not been shuffled after a major destruction, and now they are forcibly suppressed, but the contradictions have not been resolved, a large number of things need to be dealt with, and they can't be solved at all for a while.
Maeda Toshiya was silent and did not continue to object, but it didn't look like it was accepting.
Xiao Ruxun decided to sing for a while with a red face.
"Your concerns are clear to Bendu, but in the current situation, which of you can continue to fight? Nearly 200,000 young people have perished in North Korea, how many aftermath do you have to deal with? After the war, how much effort do you have to deal with the food shortage and wealth shortage? Although the governor is strong, but what he wants is what the Ming deserves, the Ming is actually not interested in Japan, after the fight, after killing the culprit, as long as you compensate, the Ming will not be investigated, the key is whether you can make the posture you should have! ”
Seeing that Tokugawa Ieyasu and Maeda Toshiya turned their eyes to him, Xiao Ruxun continued: "The governor knows that the two of you have a deep grudge and it is difficult to resolve, so I asked you to separate the two places, the Tokugawa clan set the fief in the westernmost part, the Toyotomi clan in the east, and set up some daimyo in the middle that you can both accept as a buffer, so that you don't have to have direct contact, and there will be no friction, and the Ming army is monitoring in Iwami, how good is this?" Isn't it bad not to fight? Ben Governor hates war the most. ”
It's almost time for the heat.
"That's all said and done, you two sides don't continue to look down on each other, wars and wars, fights and fights, the people of the world are still suffering, you need the people of the world to cultivate the fields and pay taxes, the people are all for you to fight and fight, who will farm and cultivate? Who goes to business and pays taxes? Isn't peaceful development bad? Daming also took a step back, this Iwami country is still yours, just leased to Daming for fifty years, during which everything Daming dealt with, fifty years later, Iwami country will be returned to you! ”
As he spoke, Xiao Ruxun handed the pen to Maeda Toshiie and Tokugawa Ieyasu.
"Sign it, as long as you sign it, this war that shouldn't happen should be over, the Toyotomi family will play your emperor, give the Tokugawa clan a high-ranking official, seal a fief, no smaller fief than his previous fief, and the rest of the people It's best to seal it together, appease, the people of the Toyotomi clan will take over the old fief of the Tokugawa clan before, it's just a change of fief, everyone takes what they need, enjoys peace, and from then on stop fighting, no longer fight, and sing about wine, isn't it beautiful?"
Tokugawa Ieyasu had already moved, and he had some other thoughts in his heart, looked at the four million silver, as well as Iwami's so-called fifty-year "lease", and made a ruthless decision, signed his name, and by the way, he also signed the name of the Daimyo of Dongguo in a series of alliances, and then stamped a seal.
Maeda Toshiya watched Tokugawa Ieyasu sign very happily, and panicked, thinking that the Tokugawa clan signed and he didn't sign, in case Xiao Ruxun didn't make an alliance with the Tokugawa clan directly, wouldn't he be unlucky?
But these four million silver and Iwami's "lease", this ...... This is really unacceptable, but when he thought about it, Tokugawa Ieyasu also took on the same thing, and he also had to pay four million taels of silver and Iwami Kuni's lease, this kind of thing is not borne by him alone, even if it is infamy, there are two people to share it together, and there is also a Toyotomi Hideji as the big wrongdoer, so thinking about it, Maeda Toshiya also felt a little easier.
It's not okay if you don't sign it now, Tokugawa Ieyasu has already signed it, and if you don't sign it, you will become the target of public criticism.
Thinking like this, Maeda Toshiya hesitated for a long time, but in the end he still signed his name and the name of Toyotomi Shuji, and stamped the seal, so far, the "Ming Japan Mutual Assistance and Friendship Treaty" officially entered into force, with legal effect, if the Japanese side violates the terms of it, the Ming army will have a reason to directly start a war.
Iwami was "leased" to the Ming Dynasty by the top Japanese leadership in the form of law, which was tantamount to acquiescing to the Ming Dynasty's 50 years of mining rights in Japan's Silver Mountain, plus three islands, the Ming army was enough to build a defense line on the sea, so that Japan could never continue to set its sights on Korea.
After the signing of the treaty, under the arrangement of Xiao Ruxun, based on the land actually occupied by Tokugawa Toyotomi and Toyotomi as the division standard, Japan was divided into two, and the areas belonging to the Tokugawa power included the entire Kyushu, Nagato Province, Zhou Defense Province and Iyo Province in the Shikoku region, and the remaining areas belonged to the Toyotomi clan, and the self-division of the Toyotomi clan Xiao Ruxun did not interfere, and in the self-division of the Tokugawa clan, according to the plea of Tokugawa Ieyasu, Xiao Ruxun personally divided.
Tokugawa Ieyasu obtained Hizen Higo Chikuzen Chikugo Shikoku as a territory, and it was still a million-stone daimyo, while the remaining twenty or so daimyo were evenly distributed in other regions, and each person's rank was around 100,000 koku, ensuring Tokugawa Ieyasu's status as the leader of the alliance.
Tokugawa Ieyasu expressed his satisfaction, and said that he would obey Xiao Ruxun's arrangement in the future, and would sort out the internal affairs as soon as possible, and would inevitably pay 800,000 taels of silver to the Ming court within the year, and strive to pay the arrears within five years.
It's a foregone conclusion.
