"How's Tokugawa Iemitsu?"

Jumping onto the shore and not waiting to stand firm, he asked impatiently.

Zhou Ying saluted and said with a smile: "Retreat to Odawara Castle, it has been surrounded." ”

The fire of Edo Castle burned for three days and three nights, and it could be seen even from dozens of miles away, and in a short time, the artillery stripped Edo Castle naked, exposing it in front of the tiger guard. The people of the city, who had escaped the fire, poured out in panic and became prisoners of the Tiger Guard.

The reinforcements that came to the rescue were also defeated in succession, and the only thing Tokugawa Iemitsu could do was to retreat from Kaejo before the Tiger Guard actually began to attack the castle tower. He fled by night, taking most of his cronies with him, and fled to Odawara Castle, only to be pursued by the Tiger Guard and surrounded him in Odawara Castle.

"Still alive?" Jiang An muttered: "It is worthy of being the grandson of the old turtle, but he can survive." I came this time to bring a new order from the official, and this time the Yellow Falcon ran very fast, and it only took fifteen days to deliver the order, so you can imagine how important this order is. ”

The surrounding senior generals were all solemn, and even Yu Dahai also stood upright.

After seeing the Yellow Falcon, Yu Dahai's respect for Yu Guozhen has risen to the point of worship. He understood what the appearance of the Yellow Falcon meant, and it wouldn't be too long before the sea would be the world of such a ship without sails!

Moreover, I heard that this steam-powered ship can also be equipped with steel armor, which means that the artillery, which is currently the greatest threat to the ship, will encounter restraint.

Until that time. Xinxiang's navy does not need to worry about any enemy at all, just by relying on the collision, it is enough to destroy the vast majority of the fleets in this world.

It is precisely in recognition of this that Yu Dahai has a strong sense of admiration for Yu Guozhen, who advocated practical learning and then created such a terrible machine.

One step ahead. It can be regarded as a genius, but it can see through the time of decades and hundreds of years, it is a god!

"It doesn't need to be so serious. This order of the officials is somewhat peculiar, how to deal with the areas we occupy. Shogishi scratched his head and smiled. Then he took out a piece of paper: "You see, this is the original order." ”

The original order was very simple, only fourteen words, and it was quickly passed in the hands of everyone, and most of the faces were puzzled, Yu Dahai vaguely guessed something, but felt unsure.

"I've seen it all, the Han flag is raised on the top of Mt. Fuji, and the orchid is drunk under the cherry blossom tree...... Haha, the official's order this time. Everyone thinks it's weird. Shogishi laughed.

He had some suspicions in his mind, but although he was authorized to do it alone, he was not the kind of person who decided everything on his own, whether it was raiding Edo Castle in the Tokugawa shogunate. Even now, he gathers everyone, speaks his ideas to them, forms a collective will, and then implements them.

This puts an end to the possibility of individuals playing with intrigues and tricks, and will know about it. His words and deeds, someone will definitely pass them back, either to the table of Gao Erzhu, or directly to Yu Guozhen's hands.

"I really don't understand, what the officials think...... someone muttered.

"When I recited Tang poems and Song Ci, you were the laziest, I just felt that our Huwei had nothing to do with Fenghua Xueyue, and there was no need for these things, now it's a bear, haha, the official's meaning is very simple, let us choose the most beautiful Japanese woman to send to him."

"Yes, yes, yes, the women of the Japanese country are the best at serving people, pick a few and give them to the officials......"

"Beware Madame of you both skinning!"

For a moment, there was good-natured laughter all around, and although he couldn't understand the true meaning of Yu Guozhen's order, Yu Guozhen was able to send out the news so easily, which proved that he was very satisfied with the attack on the Edo Tokugawa shogunate.

"Don't make any noise, let me tell me what I think, of course the little officials won't like the women of the Japanese country, if the little officials are willing, what kind of beauty is our Xinxiang?" Shogan coughed and stopped everyone from digressing to the female side: "The order of the petty official is twofold, the first is to set up the banner of our Han family on Mount Fuji, that is, to choose a place on Mount Fuji to establish a stronghold for my Xinxiang. However, the official also said that he had no intention of occupying the entire Wa Kingdom for the time being, so this stronghold did not need to be too big, as long as there was a good port. ”

Everyone nodded their heads again and again, and they knew that Mt. Fuji, also known as the "Immortal Mountain" in the Japanese language, was a rare wonder. Build a base here, and when the officials travel around the world in the future, they may also enjoy the wonders here. Of course, this is a shallow way to think about it, but if you think about it deeply, Mt. Fuji is very close to Edo, and the vicinity of Edo is the main point of transportation in the Wa Kingdom, and after the decision to abandon Amakusa Shiro Tokisadada, Shinsho also needs to have a new base in the Wa Province to serve as a warehouse for the dumping of Shinsho products.

"As for the drunken orchid under the cherry blossom tree, I think it is the women of Edo Castle, we have more men and fewer women, and we have not changed for many years, and now although there are 1.2 million people in Xinxiang, there are more than 800,000 men, and there are only more than 300,000 women, and half of them do not have daughters-in-law, so we have to find a daughter-in-law for the brothers in the South China Sea, maybe some of our brothers will marry a widow as a daughter-in-law......"

"Others maybe, the governor you are absolutely hopeless, I went back to the country of Wa, I heard that I was driven to the study and slept alone for half a month."

"Exactly, the governor's wife is not a good stubble, if the veteran dares to think anything, click, hahahaha......"

Everyone was originally very serious, but Yu Guozhen's order made the atmosphere instantly lively, even now, Huweizhong is mostly young people under the age of twenty, even Jiang An himself is only twenty-four years old, so all kinds of jokes flew out.

"In short, if you want a woman, not one or two, but one hundred and twenty thousand, of course, you want to be young and handsome, and you can't help the brothers who are looking forward to their daughter-in-law when they bring back crooked melons and cracked dates." Shogan also laughed and said, "This matter has to be handled." ”

"The war is still going on." After laughing, someone finally poured cold water: "It's too early to talk about this at this time, right?" ”

"The war is over." Jiang An said with strong confidence: "Sheng Qin, now is the time for you to show your talents. ”

Qin Sheng first bowed to Jiang'an, then bowed down, and bowed deeply to the south: "The villain Meng Nanhai Bo will not give up, and he has the opportunity to revive the name of Changzong and my family, the villain has nothing to repay, only by doing his best can he talk about loyalty!" ”

"Okay, okay, the official is not here, he can't see you like this, and it's better to get things done than to bow down a thousand times." Shogishi pulled him up and said with a smile, "Go, the first target is the Date family of the Sendai Domain!" ”

For Tokugawa Iemitsu who was trapped in Odawara Castle, this period was extremely difficult, at first it was only the soldiers of the Ming Kingdom chasing him, but after three days, he could clearly see in the castle tower that the siege of Odawara Castle was not only the soldiers of the Ming Kingdom, but also groups of Japanese samurai and ronin-looking people gathered here. Among these people, he saw many banners that he hated deeply, in addition to Ishida Mitsunari, and even saw the papaya flag of Saruhideyoshi!

"I didn't expect there to be so many rebellions around Edo." Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but sigh: "The Ming people instigated these rebels, presumably they won't let me go, I can die, but the inheritance of the Tokugawa family can't be destroyed, Zhongqiu, as a messenger, send the Ming ** team to visit." ”

Hearing this, Abe Zhongqiu's face changed greatly, and another retainer next to him knelt forward: "General, it can't be like this, it can't be like this!" It's better to hold on for a few more days, as long as it takes a few days, the kamikaze will fall, and the army of Lord Izuna will definitely come back to the rescue......"

"In the past few days, I have already asked for the care of the weather, so the people of the Ming Kingdom can't use that kind of Kong Ming lantern to set fire to Odawara City. But as long as the weather clears, Odawara Castle can't be defended......" Tokugawa Iemitsu sighed.

At this moment, the samurai outside came in with a strange look on his face and reported: "General, Lord Lisheng is here!" ”

"Which one wins...... You mean, is the elder coming? Tokugawa said in astonishment.

Toshikatsu Doi was nominally the current elder of the Tokugawa shogunate, but in fact he had been in a semi-secluded state, and when the tiger guard attacked Edo Castle, Tokugawa also sent someone to ask Doi, but before Doi arrived, Edo Castle became a sea of fire. Now that Doi has suddenly arrived, and the outside is full of enemy sieges, how did he get into the city?

"Let him in." Tokugawa Iemitsu felt a strong sense of foreboding.

The senile Toshikatsu Doi brought bad news: Nagamune Ibu Morikin, who had changed his name to Qin Shengqin, set up a banner in Edo Castle to recruit ronin samurai who had been deprived of their fiefs or eliminated by force by the Tokugawa family, and in a short time, they gathered 10,000 troops, and also captured Doi Shengli from his seclusion and asked him to bring a message to Tokugawa Iemitsu.

Tokugawa Iemitsu must die, the direct head of the Tokugawa family must be handed over, and the Tokugawa shogunate must be dissolved!

These three conditions, one is more bloody than the other, and after Doi Toshikatsu brought the news, he also explained the surrounding situation to Tokugawa Iemitsu, who had been trapped in the city for a long time: several troops loyal to the shogunate were all wiped out, and peasant battles were occurring all over the shogunate, and the monks of the Ichizong sect were also unwilling to be lonely, and some of the surrounding daimyo lords had begun to waver. Qin Sheng went to persuade them one by one, threatening to increase their territory and reduce the number of fame and fortune, forcing these people to choose to wait and see.

In fact, they can't wait and see, most of their main forces were taken to Kyushu Island by Matsudaira Ietsuna, and the little peasant soldiers that were cobbled together were not enough to protect themselves, let alone come to the rescue.

"The situation is obvious, and the only way for the Tokugawa family to survive is to accept the other party's conditions. I am the Shogunate Elder, and there are some things that others can't say, but I can say them, Shogun, please don't embarrass Ieyasu-sama. As for the future of the Tokugawa family, please leave it to Abe Nakaaki and others to support. In mid-autumn, what Changzong and my relatives can give to the Ming Nanhai Bo, our Tokugawa family can also give, and we can give the most, for the continuation of the Tokugawa family, please bear the burden of humiliation and bear the infamy of traitors. As for me, I'm already old, so I can only explain to the two generations of shoguns why the third generation of the Tokugawa shogunate died. ”

In order to prove that he was not afraid to join the enemy, after saying this, Doi Toshikatsu committed suicide by cutting his stomach. (To be continued)
