PS. Present the May Day update, don't hurry up to play after reading, remember to vote for the month first. From now on, you can enjoy double monthly passes for the 515 Fan Festival, and you can also take a look at other activities with red envelopes!
Now that the two sides have reached an agreement, the operation is ready to begin immediately.
Toyotomi Hideyori mobilized almost all the forces at his disposal, and while Tokugawa Ieyasu was not ready, he was ready to use this opportunity to fully train his team.
However, among his men, Kangning did not meet Sanada Yukimura, who was praised by Tokugawa Ieyasu and Shimazu Tadashi as the strongest soldier in the world.
Maybe that guy is still in the area of Jiuju Mountain, living a degraded life. Toyotomi Hideyori has not yet used 2,000 gold in exchange for his allegiance. If you want to see it, I'm afraid it will take a while.
Huang Lin left Osaka Castle after the meeting. For him, reminding Toyotomi Hideyori that strengthening the alliance between the two sides was the only purpose of the trip.
As for returning to the Ryukyu Kingdom, he has another trouble to solve, that Kikukuin monk is not an easy person to deal with.
Although his assassination plan has been planned for a long time, and the entire plan has been repeatedly scrutinized, and it is expected that there will not be too many mistakes, there is always a strange feeling in his heart.
Perhaps, it is the physical fatigue caused by long-term travel these days that has affected his mood. That's why I have this feeling of unease.
However, he always felt that he should do something, the place at home was too right, but he couldn't think of anything now, what should he do?
It was a bad feeling, as if the victory that was within reach had been given wings and could fly away from his hands at any time.
A boiled duck is ready to spread its wings and soar. No matter how you look at it, it's a strange thing, even if it's a living duck, he can't soar in the sky, but now, such a disobedient scene. It seemed to appear right in front of him, and he had to be alert, but he couldn't be on guard, he didn't know what was wrong. I can only force myself to calm down and implement the original plan step by step.
After boarding the ship to return to the Ryukyu Kingdom, he prayed to the heavens that everything would go well.
Corning was left behind in Osaka Castle, along with the refugees and his retinue.
He is now the plenipotentiary of the Huanglin clique here, and he is also one of Toyotomi Hideyori's advisers.
It's a strange lease-lease relationship. On the one hand, he needs to do his best to give advice to Toyotomi Hideyori, and on the other hand, he needs to intrigue with Toyotomi Hideyori's subordinates in order to obtain enough benefits for his old club.
Awaji Island is the first benefit he wants to fight.
After four days of vomiting and dizziness, the refugees finally set foot on Awaji Island.
Awaji Island wasn't originally a borderland. It's just the original exile of Tadao Ikeda. Because of the death of his brother Tadatsugu Ikeda, he went to Okayama Domain. Succeed to the throne of the feudal lord.
At this time, Tokugawa Ieyasu had not sent a new feudal lord, but gave Yasuning and others the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
At the same time, Kangning also noticed another phenomenon, it seems that the Wa State did not have a too serious butterfly effect, and he did not know that it was a closed and conservative Wa State, which had a huge historical inertia and a heavy historical trajectory. It's still this area, and there is no influence of the traverser at all.
If it's the latter, then this is undoubtedly a good opportunity for Corning to practice its single-brush ability.
At the moment, a few details that make you feel more relieved are: Tadao Ikeda's elder brother died in the same year as history, and the Tsushima family also changed their governors this year in accordance with the trajectory of history.
These are all good signs, which means that Corning can quietly carry out many of his own plans, and of course, there is a boss who is also a traverser, and he is constantly watching him, forcing him to hide his true motives at every step.
It wasn't that he hadn't thought about assassinating Huang Lin, but since the two of them met, they hadn't had time alone. In this way, even if he can successfully kill Huang Lin, he can't quietly replace it with a reincarnated person, so it doesn't make any sense for Kangning to kill him.
However, he has returned to the Ryukyu Kingdom, and in this era when going out is basically by walking, and communication is basically by roaring, there is still some room for maneuver if he wants to quietly operate his forces without being discovered.
This soon-to-be-acquired Awaji Island is his first territory.
Huang Lin did not tell him all the contents of the plan when he left, but he could imagine that this place would become the strategic fulcrum of Huanglin Group in the whole country.
And Huang Lin still has worries about the future in the Ryukyu Kingdom, among the forces he can rely on at sea, only Yan Siqi is active nearby, and he is also sure to participate in the operation against the Japanese Kingdom. But after all, he is a pirate who is used to operating at sea, and if he doesn't come back to take charge of this territory now, then Boss Huang's only choice is to let him Kang Ning take charge of this area.
In this way, for Kangning, the situation has become more favorable, on the one hand, he has such ambitions, and on the other hand, Boss Huang's strategic layout has also given him the environment for ambition to grow.
Walking among the refugees after the landing, Corning found that many of the frail refugees had fallen ill during the voyage. Although Boss Huang has a very developed level of shipbuilding, the feeling that this voyage gave Kangning still reminded him of the words in the textbooks describing the triangular slave trade.
Shigenari Kimura was the main commander of this operation. Osamu Ohno, who was the main adviser, was left behind in Osaka Castle. Toyotomi Hideyori seems to have been affected by Boss Huang's remarks, and both he and his mother Yododen have begun to doubt Katagiri Kazumoto's loyalty.
This is also the ending that Boss Huang said he was willing to see, although according to the original historical trend, this stinger finally left Osaka Castle automatically, and did not act as an internal response, stabbing Toyotomi Hideyori from behind. But with such an inner ghost, it still makes people feel uneasy.
After all, the heavyweight strategic materials that Boss Huang will transport next are the magic weapons that can determine the course of world history. He didn't want the Kawaya Yasuya Party to recognize the existence of this thing, so as not to affect the strategic balance in the future.
Only the infighting that cannot be held can provide the best platform for him to seize the interests of both sides.
Corning, who is also a traverser, understands this very well.
But the current situation makes him very worried.
The army led by Kimura Shigenari landed on Awaji Island two days earlier than the refugees.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi's heritage made them look mighty in front of the local defenders. So they easily captured a beachhead. It was through this position that your ships boarded the land they were about to cultivate.
However, their physical condition was so bad that not only Kangning couldn't stand it, but even Kimura Shigenari, who led the Japanese soldiers, asked worriedly, "Their situation seems to be not far from death." ”
"Actually, someone has already died." A few weeping women on the edge of the coagulated beach said, "This kind of migration, even if it is very close, will not be unharmed." The inherent idea of resettlement not only organizes the movement of people at the macro level, but also reduces their physical fitness at the micro level. This vulnerability is fully exposed when dealing with migrations,"
Kimura Shigenari admired Kangning's point of view, and in the era when Catholicism had been introduced to the Wa Kingdom, many new things had already appeared. Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Toyotomi Hideyori also selectively accepted some new ideas. Their retainers and generals also had the opportunity to receive some ideas from the West. At the same time, they have consciously or unconsciously relaxed their vigilance against new ideas from other directions.
"This is the first time I've heard of this kind of way of analyzing things at both the national and individual levels. Mr. Kang is worthy of being a military advisor that Mr. Huang is a strong supporter. ”
Corning originally wanted to be modest in a high-sounding manner, but when he looked back at your refugees, he suddenly felt that maybe his ability did not need to be modest at all.
"How strong I am, if I were really strong, I wouldn't have died so many people along the way. Although it was still morning, I didn't have enough tents for them to settle into. Everything has to start all over again, and it has to be hurried, otherwise, the local defenders will definitely come and make trouble. ”
"Don't worry about that." Shigenari Kimura said, "After the local mobile phone saw us logging in, they were already cowering in the city, afraid to fight. We're getting ready to go back to the city, and it's a matter of time. ”
Kangning glanced at Kimura Shigenari, but he didn't expect that the residual power left by Toyotomi Hideyoshi was so strong. Just after the landing, the team shrank the local defenders into the city like little turtles and refused to fight.
However, there is also an obvious loophole in Kimura Shigenari's statement, although they are unwilling to fight, it will not affect the refugees who have just landed, but for the whole plan. They can't shrink back like this, but it is very disadvantageous to Toyotomi Hideyori.
"We don't have a lot of time, and Tokugawa Ieyasu is going to attack here. We must bring this island under our rule in a short time. ”
"This is difficult, if we want to forcibly attack the city, I am afraid that there are not too many soldiers, and a lot will be sacrificed, and the more critical problem is. Those ronins who are about to defect to us will discourage the idea of defecting, after all, they are only fighting for money, and they don't want to lose their lives here. ”
"Of course, a strong attack is not possible. However, I have a way to give it a try. ”
Kimura Shigetari's eyes lit up, and he asked in surprise, "What is Sir's plan?" ”
Kang Ning deliberately sold Guanzi. He glanced at Liu Ming and said lightly: "If you want this strategy to succeed, first of all, you have to feed their group of people!" ”
