Xiao Ruxun also expressed satisfaction with Tokugawa Ieyasu's well-behaved and obedient attitude, praised Tokugawa Ieyasu's loyal behavior, praised Tokugawa Ieyasu's loyalty, and said that Tokugawa Ieyasu is the most loyal dog leg of our Ming Dynasty, you little daimyo must honestly obey orders, otherwise, you will all die miserably!

When they finally parted, Xiao Ruxun noticed that Tokugawa Ieyasu's complexion did not seem to be very good. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Hum! The old fox, like a fox and a fake tiger, always has to pay a price, right?

By virtue of the military might of the Ming army, he forcibly divided the territory to take the most fertile piece, he is still a million-stone daimyo, nothing has been lost, the property and family members and retainers in the past territory will be politely sent by the Toyotomi clan, and his position is preserved, but the other group of daimyo is different, some of them have obtained more territories, and some of the new territories have not been as much as they got before.

Under Xiao Ruxun's coercion, they did not dare to say anything, but they would transfer this anger to Tokugawa Ieyasu, and Tokugawa Ieyasu would be isolated as a result, and these daimyo would also become a centrifugal force under his command.

In this way, if he wants to ensure his position and not be taken advantage of by the Toyotomi clan, he must get the support of the Ming army and become a loyal supporter of the Ming army.

And he also noticed that Xiao Ruxun didn't have any good intentions, and the four countries that were given to him had more than 1.3 million stone in name, but these areas were the areas with the greatest losses in the previous Korean battle, the most men were transferred, and the most manpower and material resources were consumed, except for a few areas, most of the areas were full of holes and urgently needed to rest, which was not enough for him to strengthen the army for war.

He still has a debt of four million taels of silver, although his private property is enough to advance a considerable part, but it is private property, it is one of the foundations of his fortune and the basis of guaranteeing his status, and it cannot be used indiscriminately, if it is handed over to Daming, his foundation will be shaken, and he needs a lot of money to maintain his position and maintain his majesty, and these money are his confidence as the lord.

Of course, he is not worried about the war in recent years, he has suffered heavy losses, and the Toyotomi clan is not much better, the daimyo under his command have not received any benefits, and the dead and wounded of the favorable daimyo under the Toyotomi clan are only a few people, and the remaining small daimyo may become the biggest beneficiaries of this war, and they will get some spare territories.

This war launched by Toyotomi Hideyoshi has come to an end, but everyone knows that this war has not really ended, the uneven distribution of interests, the defeat of foreign wars and the signing of unequal treaties, the demand for interests is not satisfied, the blood feud has not been calmed, there are too many fuses of the war, if it is not for the strong suppression of the Ming army, this war will not stop.

Toyotomi is the same, Toyotomi Hideyoshi died, Toyotomi Hideji barely took the position to stabilize the situation, replaced the functions of the previous Toyotomi Hideyoshi's retainers with his own retainers, and barely maintained the situation, the war is imminent, the bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods are also secretly and quietly waiting for the result, whether to help Toyotomi or help Tokugawa, but now the situation has changed, Toyotomi and Tokugawa were beaten down by the Ming army, and the two sides shook hands and made peace under the mediation of the Ming army, and divided Japan.

Some people were dissatisfied with the unreasonable demands of the Ming army, and demanded that the whole of Japan be gathered to fight to the death with the Ming army and regain the dignity of the country, but such voices were too weak, and the vast majority of people were more concerned about how much benefit they could get under the new situation and whether they could become the ultimate victor.

For this reason, they kept running up and down, matchmaking, and fighting for their own better land, and no one had the heart to think about fighting with the Ming army to recapture Iwami Silver Mountain.

Anyway, even if they take it back, the silver of Iwami Ginzan will not fall into their pockets.

In order to promote such a reluctant peace situation, with the support of the representatives of the Ming army and the mediation of the three sides, the Japanese emperor finally decided to appoint Tokugawa Ieyasu as the general of the expedition to the west and garrison the west.

The shogun is the representative of the shogunate, and being named the shogun is equivalent to having the qualification to open the palace and becoming the co-lord of the samurai and princes in the world, but the Toyotomi clan himself can't get this position, let alone allow Tokugawa Ieyasu to get it.

Under the operation of the Maeda Toshiya, the Toyotomi clan was in the way, and the Japanese emperor had to appoint Tokugawa Ieyasu as the general of the expedition to the west, and he could not open the government, but the Maeda Ieya still felt that it was inappropriate, and under his strong request, the word "big" was removed, and Tokugawa Ieyasu could only become the general of the expedition.

This nondescript title of general made Tokugawa Ieyasu very dissatisfied, but due to the actual situation, he did not have the face to ask for a higher position, he could only put what he got into his pocket, and then used Xiao Ruxun's tiger power to distribute the task of four million silver taels of compensation to more than 20 daimyo, in order to alleviate the contradiction to the greatest extent, he took the most, for this, he even paid a lot of price.

At the same time, in order to stabilize people's hearts, in order to further consolidate the political power, and to prevent things from happening within the Toyotomi clan, Maeda Toshiya strongly asked the emperor to officially confer the title of Toyotomi Hideji as the general of Zhengyi, allow him to open the palace, and secure the position of the co-lord of the world. How can a person from humble birth get such a position?

However, considering the Toyotomi clan's kindness to the emperor's court, and the threat of Maeda Toshiya secretly killing several of the most fierce ministers who were shouting, the emperor himself decided to hand over the title of shogun to Toyotomi Hideji, and Toyotomi Hideji still served as Sekihaku, ensuring equal status, even a line higher.

Since then, there have been two generals in Japan, one general of the expedition to the east and the other to the west, and no one knows who will become the final general of the expedition and the final opening of the palace.

Therefore, everyone is more certain that the final war will come, but when this war will start again, no one knows, the only thing everyone knows is that when the next war ends, Japan will usher in real peace, and now, it is only a temporary truce.

So they're all getting ready for it.
