Chapter 691: Amakusa Shizhen
Many of the people in the interior of the Ming Dynasty have only heard the rumors of the "God of War", and some will be skeptical.
This time, after finally meeting this iron army that has not committed any crimes in autumn, I realized that it is better to be famous than to meet.
Later, the Eight Centaurs began to expand like a snowball.
Because there are many ordinary people who have firm confidence to help the old and the young to follow the "God of War" army, the propaganda team has gone all the way, writing all the way, painting all the way, and giving speeches all the way.
The slogans and pictures left behind are widely advertised about the many benefits of the king of Nan, how beautiful the life of "Nanming" is, and also seriously warns the rogues and the officials and soldiers to rein in, and the "God of War" will not let go of a scum who wantonly kills the people.
Every passing city gate left a notice and a wanted warrant issued by King Nan, and the first major culprit arrested by the shadow graphic is, of course, the murderous demon Zhang Xianzhong.
The "God of War" offered a reward for capturing Zhang Xianzhong to get a pair of pants and a pair of straw sandals for killing Zhang Xianzhong.
The portraits on the wanted warrants of the Huang family system are definitely not abstract, but the work of a few painters, who were familiar with Zhang Xianzhong's oral physiognomy and characteristics, and then asked them to confirm after they were painted, and finally they were streotyped and posted everywhere.
Now the "God of War" people are talking happily about catching Zhang Xianzhong and changing into new pants.
At the end of the tenth year of Chongzhen, Huang Sheng personally led more than 10,000 men and horses into Xuzhou City, Nanzhili, and he led his personal army from Haizhou Port to Nanjing City by ship before Chinese New Year's Eve.
King Nan issued an order to let his soldiers rest for five days to celebrate the New Year with the people in the garrison, and to ensure that all displaced people could receive one catty of sugar, two catties of meat, and three catties of white flour for each family.
Being able to meet the poor people of Daming, who are fortunate enough to meet the "God of War", will not be too bitter this New Year, and the chanting of Buddha at the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is not known, and the king of the south has received too many blessings.
The propaganda team and the crew accompanying the army will naturally create a festive atmosphere, and the party party, song competition, and big drama will make the military and the people happy to see it.
After three to five years of development and improvement, the rules of the game have been formulated for the sport of rugby.
It's no longer about grinning heads, it's really playing and training with an oval "rugby" sewn in leather.
Every Qianzong has its own team, and they are secretly competing with each other, and every soldier cares about the victory or loss of the game, because the sense of honor of winning is the pursuit of every soldier.
The warriors with helmets and armor and full body protection compete for each other on the court, and entertainment and appreciation are naturally not a problem, and everyone likes to see such a masculine competitive sports.
Queen Chu'er, Princess Hexiang, Zhao Rui, and Gu Ling'er all came to Nanjing with their children to reunite with their husbands, and civil and military officials from Tiannan and Haibei also came.
None of the eunuchs and officials of the six departments of the Ming Dynasty were frightened, on the contrary, they were all happy to contact the "Nanming" civil and military affairs.
They found that many "Nanming" civil officials were actually officials of the Ming Dynasty, and many of the small talents of the Ming Dynasty are now also the princes of Qipin County, and those who are better mixed are already Zhengliupin Zhizhou.
Daming Wenwu all know the classic quotations of King Nan: "Daming and 'Nanming' do not distinguish each other, smash bones and connect tendons." And Huang Sheng interpreted this statement with the practical action of treating the people of Daming well.
Now the Ming Emperor has recognized the "Nanming" kingdom as a brotherly country and recognized the rule of the Nanwang.
Since the king of the fraternal country has come to Nanjing, of course everyone should receive it well. Therefore, the whole city of Nanjing is happy, and the festive atmosphere of this New Year is the most in decades.
On the third day of the first lunar month, Wang Ruhai, who was already a civil official from the sixth grade, was sent by Zhao Shimin from "Huaxia Island", and he had been in charge of intelligence collection in the Manchu and Korean regions, and he was also in charge of contacting Li Guozhu on Hirado Island.
Wang Ruhai came to see the head of the family, of course, because he had an important military situation and needed to ask for instructions, not because there was an emergency situation on "Huaxia Island", but because of the crisis that broke out in the Japanese country.
Catholicism first arrived in Wakoku a few decades ago, and the landing site was Kagoshima. Catholicism and Christianity have been on the island of Kyushu for many years, and they have spread at an astonishing rate and have a wide range of believers.
The main reason for the popularity of the church in the Kagoshima area was the remoteness of the Tokugawa shogunate, the barren land and the lack of harvest, the heavy taxes of the lords, and the cruel repression methods of the lords.
In the face of many believers, the shogunate's approach was simple and rude, one word "kill", and in this way, more than 10,000 believers died, and the seeds of hatred were sprouting.
It is also due to the influence of the harsh climate of the Xiaoice River, and in recent years, natural disasters have occurred in the Shimahara and Amakusa areas of the Ukuni Province, and the people have lost their lives.
Under the brutal rule of the Wakuni shogunate, the Shimabara War, the largest peasant rebellion in the Edo period, finally broke out.
At the end of the tenth year of Chongzhen, an extraordinary person appeared in the Wa Kingdom, he was Shiro Shizhen, the son of the samurai Masuda Yoshiji of the Konishi family on Amakusa Island, who was seventeen years old.
Thousands of afflicted cultists gathered around him, forming a formidable force.
There were two direct triggers for the "Shimabara Rebellion": one was that because the Shimabara peasants and Sanemon did not pay enough "New Year's tribute", their pregnant daughter-in-law was arrested and put naked in a water prison, where they gave birth to children, and all adults and children died.
The other is that Shimabara devotees peasant Kakuzo and Miyoshi crossed the sea to visit Amakusa Shitojima Island, and they were awarded monk status because of their piety.
After returning to Shimabara, under the preaching of these two native monks, there were more and more reverts, and the frightened lord sent his samurai to secretly kill the two and their families.
Under the tyranny, the believers were forced to unite more together, and they began to resolutely resist.
Amakusa and Shimabara responded to each other and supported each other, and the cultist army suddenly swelled to more than 30,000 people.
The cultist army fought several beautiful battles, and the leaders of the shogunate officers and soldiers were killed in battle, and disembowelments were disemboweled.
When Tokugawa Iemitsu had nothing to do, he decided to send a general to lead the armies of various foreign feudal clans to exterminate Amakusa Tokisada's rebel team.
Now that the Japanese shogunate army is approaching the original castle in the southern part of the Shimabara Peninsula that Amakusa Tokisada is holding onto, if the religious army does not get support, it will inevitably be wiped out by the shogunate army.
Li Guozhu was looking forward to the war in the Japanese Kingdom, he was fishing in troubled waters, and at this time he had already sent troops to support the original city, and he quickly sent people to "Huaxia Island" to ask Zhao Shimin to send troops.
Zhao Shimin knew that his master's strategic thinking was to spare no effort to weaken the strength of the Japanese state, and he didn't know how to take advantage of the God-given opportunity, so he had already arranged for the navy to patrol "Huaxia Island" and "Dongyang County" to assist.
This time, Wang Ruhai came to see the head of the family to ask for instructions on the extent to which the "Shimabara Rebellion" of the Japanese State should be used in the future, and what strategic goals our army should achieve. To find this site, please search for "6 Mao" or enter the URL:.
