Is this a dream?

Can you make so much money in one fight?

"Your Majesty...... This ......"

Wang Xijue still looked confused. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Zhu Yijun put on an unfathomable look.

"Do you think I'm going to fight this battle to divert my attention and take a breather? Why do you think I fully supported Xiao Ruxun in the war, and even did not hesitate to send sailors? Is it just for the prestige of the Ming Dynasty? You're thinking wrong! ”

Zhu Yijun flicked his sleeves: "As early as November last year, Xiao Ruxun sent me a secret letter, telling me that the Wa Kingdom is rich in gold and silver throughout the country, and there is a particularly large silver mountain, called Iwami Silver Mountain, with an annual output of one million taels of silver, and a small country in the Wa State can use 200,000 people to attack North Korea, because there is so much silver, if the Ming Dynasty cannot fundamentally limit the force of the Wa State, then even if the Wa State is defeated this time, it is difficult to guarantee that the Wa State will not come back, therefore, if you want to fight, you must fight it thoroughly." ”

"So, Xiao Ruxun ...... him"

"Well, he asked me to dispatch a sailor to annihilate the sailors of the Wa Kingdom from the water, trap the Japanese of Korea to death, and then land on Tsushima Island, take Tsushima Island, and then use this as a springboard to attack the Wa Kingdom itself, and take the silver mountain of the Wa Kingdom for me to use, for my Ming Dynasty, for this reason, I took 300,000 taels of silver from the inner library as the sailor funds, to help Xiao Ruxun win the battle, now it seems that Xiao Ruxun did not live up to me, but gave me a big surprise!

Not only forced Toyotomi Hideyoshi to death that bold and reckless, but also made the Japanese civil strife, the division of the east and the west, and it was difficult to unify the outside world, and took Tsushima Oki and Sado three islands, established a sea defense line, and also took the land of Iwami in the Wa country, nominally leased for 50 years, but in fact, this is the land of my Ming Dynasty, and Iwami Silver Mountain also belongs to my Ming mining for 50 years.

Wang Qing, think about it, fifty years, one million taels a year, fifty years is fifty million taels of silver! Fifty million taels! As long as you grasp this silver mountain, then Daming will not worry too much about the silver in the next fifty years, Wang Qing, this battle, is it worth Daming? ”

Wang Xijue reacted after a while, realized that he was still in front of the emperor, and hurriedly confessed: "The old minister is too surprised, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive the old minister for losing his mind." ”

Zhu Yijun smiled slightly, thinking that he didn't care.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Ruxun's move is really a precedent, so many silver taels, the old minister is indeed unheard of, I can't imagine that I can get so much silver in a war, Daming has such a good general, and the old minister celebrates His Majesty! The old minister celebrates for the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Don't celebrate this and that, you have something to do, Xiao Ruxun said, the national strength of the Japanese State is not weak, a big war can weaken it, but it can't be eliminated, the thief of the Japanese State is not dead, and it can't be given a chance to breathe, therefore, the Ming Dynasty needs to maintain a garrison of 10,000 people, stationed on Iwami, Oki Island and Sado Island, as for Tsushima Island, you go and send an official letter to the King of Korea, so that the King of Korea can choose a good general to garrison Tsushima Island, which can be regarded as reducing some burden for the Ming Dynasty."

Wang Xijue pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, Iwami will occupy it if it is occupied, but if those islands are garrisoned, they will have to build ports, build shelters, and transport supplies, so the consumption is too great?" ”

Zhu Yijun's face was expressionless.

"There are mountains of gold on the island."

"The old minister obeys."

Wang Xijue didn't say anything - this Xiao Ruxun is really a talent, and he has squeezed so many things from Japan in one go...... But more importantly, the Japanese are willing to cede these things, which means that they have more gold and silver mountains with higher yields, and this small Dongyi island country is so rich? China is a vast land and a vast country, and there is no silver mountain with an annual output of one million, how can this small island country have it? And if there are so many, why not......

Wang Xijue muttered in his heart, why don't you just swallow Japan in one bite, won't all those things belong to Daming? Daming won't be short of money in a short period of time, right? This Xiao Ruxun is so capable of fighting, it won't be said that he can't beat it, right?

Thinking of this, Wang Xijue opened his mouth again: "Your Majesty, since the small country of Wadao is so rich, and it has the audacity to invade my Ming and North Korea, Daming is a famous teacher, and it can be completely annexed, and Your Majesty, you think, if this Wa country simply handed over the silver mountain with an annual output of one million to Daming, it can only prove that there are more and bigger gold and silver mines in the Wa country, and even copper mines may be there!" ”

Zhu Yijun sighed slightly, and sighed: "It's not that I haven't thought about it this way, when Xiao Ruxun was like a bamboo, I thought about it like this, and I also asked Xiao Ruxun, but Xiao Ruxun said that although the Japanese country is small, it has a large population, and according to the report, the number of Japanese people is more than 10 million, which is much more than that of North Korea." ”

"Ten million? This small country in Dongyi is silent, and it actually has a population of tens of millions? This ......"

"I was also very surprised at the time, and even a little lucky, fortunately those thief chieftains couldn't continue to endure, if they endured until the population was larger, and raised 200,000 troops to attack, then even the Ming Dynasty would be tired of coping, a small country has such a strong national strength, I have made a mistake, therefore, Xiao Ruxun also said that without 100,000 soldiers and horses, it is impossible to annex the Japanese State, and as far as the current situation of the Ming Dynasty is concerned, the logistics of 100,000 soldiers and horses cannot be guaranteed, and we must first take something from the hands of the Japanese State to enrich ourselves."

Zhu Yijun's eyes narrowed: "A small country can invade North Korea with an army of 150,000, and I have been in peace for a long time, and I have to exhaust my national strength with 40,000 soldiers and horses, so thinking about it, how can I not be vigilant about the terrible things about that small country?" Therefore, I must adopt Xiao Ruxun's suggestion, whether it is for the sake of silver or for the sake of future generations, I must do something. ”

What else can Wang Xijue say?

"Your Majesty."

"Don't say anything holy or not, I still have some things to discuss with you." Zhu Yijun walked back to his seat and sat down: "After this battle is over, the rewards that the generals and ministers should be rewarded, and the seals that should be sealed, these are all simple, and the arrangements of three people are a little uncertain, one is Xiao Ruxun, the second is Li Rusong, and the third is Song Yingchang. ”

Wang Xijue also understands the truth here, Xiao Ruxun is the biggest hero, he got tens of millions of taels of silver for the Ming Dynasty, how to reward is debatable, Li Rusong is the son of Li Chengliang, this meritorious service is not small, the identity is special, how to reward is also a problem, Song Yingchang is a civilian commander, although he has not been to the front line, but the preparation of logistics support for the military is also a great achievement, the first achievement in theory, because he has achieved the position of the left squire of the military department, after returning from a big victory, how to reward it?
