Chapter 344: Envoy of the Northern Continent
Taira Masamori swept away Iga, Ise, Owari and other places at an astonishing speed, which created a strong sense of crisis among the daimyo in Musashi, Ueno, Shimono, Echigo, and Mutsu in the northeast.
Heimasama became stronger and stronger, and when he sent out his army, he had 10,000 horses, and after conquering the territory of Iga and several other daimyos, his strength had increased to 23,000 men; In addition, the appearance of Ping Zhengsheng's eating is too ugly, but the defeated daimyo has almost no physiology; The daimyo of Takeshi and Ueno knew that they were powerless to fight against Heimasamori alone, so they joined forces one after another.
An army of 20,000 men was assembled to deal with Heimasamori's aggressive offensive, and a major battle broke out between the two sides at Kai, or north of Mt. Fuji.
Since the dispatch of troops, Heimasasheng has won successive battles, and he can't help but be a little arrogant, and the coalition forces have a strong sense of distress, so the battle is surprisingly brave, and the 40,000-strong army has been fighting fiercely in the north of Mount Fuji for more than an hour, and Pingzheng has been defeated, losing a full 7,000 men and horses.
If it weren't for Murong Zhi's timely action, Ping Zhengsheng might not have been able to save his life.
Although Murong Zhi only had 200 people, with the effective killing distance of nearly 800 meters from the flintlock gun, he also caused more than 2,000 casualties to the coalition army.
The power of the flintlock pistol makes the coalition feel extremely terrifying, such a distance, people can easily shoot you, but you can't reach people.
These daimyo realized that as long as the "demon army" of Lord Yang Dadao was on the side of Ping Zhengsheng, they would probably only have to wait for death. As a result, these daimyo sent people from the sea to Kakulu Port to contact the lord of Yangda Island, hoping to solve the problem through negotiations.
Heiankyo, Washington.
The so-called Washington House is the old residence of the Fujiwara family, which is no less luxurious than the Japanese Imperial Palace, and there are hot spring baths, and it is also close to the Imperial Palace, which is conducive to the Emperor Horikawa at any time.
So the lord of Yang Dadao stayed here for a long time and renamed it Washington.
The decoration in the front hall still maintains the original appearance of the Fujiwara family, with Tang calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls, and a few small tables on the walls are dotted with Yue kiln celadon vases; On the edge of the gilded screen, a plate of red coral trees is extremely eye-catching, and even makes people ignore the glimmer of spring exposed under the messy clothes of the two princesses Lingzi and Zhenzi.
Lord Yang Dadao leaned on a wooden couch paved with tiger skin, his head rested on Sakura's pair of soft "papayas", and his left and right hands respectively held the delicate bodies of the two princesses, Lingzi and Zhenzi, and kneaded them unscrupulously through his clothes from time to time.
Mutsu Shigemitsu and Miyamoto XII, who were kneeling in the hall, didn't dare to look at it more, although the emperor's favorite female emperor and the two most noble and beautiful princes of the Japanese Empire were played with like this, which made them feel very ashamed, but His Majesty the Emperor didn't care anymore, what could they do?
And they can't show the slightest dissatisfaction, they are here to beg for help this time, their lives are in the hands of others, how can they oppose others playing with the princess of the Japanese Empire?
Mutsu Shigemitsu is in his forties, very thin, but his eyes look very profitable, and it is not difficult to see that he is a shrewd person; This is probably the reason why several daimyo chose him to negotiate.
I saw him bow down and say, "Your Excellency, I have been entrusted by several daimyo of Mutsu, Echigo, Musashi, Ueno, and Shimono to come to meet Your Excellency and send our respect to Your Excellency. We, like the Peace clan, are all subjects of His Majesty the Emperor, and I hope to ......."
"Hope for what?" Yang Yi pinched Lingzi's plump buttocks and interrupted Mutsu Shigemitsu, "I hope that the owner of this island will treat you like the Heike family, right?" Mutsu Shigemitsu, you said that you are all subjects of His Majesty the Emperor, and His Majesty the Emperor issued an order to confiscate all gold and silver throughout the country and use paper money as currency, have you carried out the Emperor's edict?
I have an agreement with His Majesty the Emperor that whoever does not obey His Majesty's orders will be obliged by the owner of the island to help His Majesty the Emperor in his requisition. ”
Yang Yi's tone was not harsh, but there was an undoubted taste, he planned to keep a few forces in Japan, but the premise was that these people must be obedient; The terms signed by Horikawa were to pay 40,000 taels of silver, and it was impossible for Japan to come up with so much gold and silver at once, and the rest of the money had to be repaid by all of Japan. Therefore, even if the daimyo of Mutsu, Musashi, and Echigo agreed to hand over all the gold and silver in their hands, it would not be enough, and they had to promise to repay the rest together in the future.
Otherwise, he would rather destroy all the daimyo in these places, leaving only the Heike to confront Emperor Horikawa.
Although Mutsu Shigemitsu was smart, he didn't think so much for a while, and handed over all the gold and silver treasures in his hands, which was difficult for the daimyo to accept, he came to bargain with the lord of Yang Dadao, and the bottom line given to him by several daimyo was to hand over seventy percent of the gold and silver in the territory to sell peace.
"Your Excellency, it's not that we disobey His Majesty's edict, it's just that His Majesty's edict was issued too suddenly, and several small countries such as Musashi, Mutsu, and Echigo are located in remote areas, and the people are sparsely populated, and we really can't find so much gold and silver for a while......"
Lord Yang Oshima sat up cross-legged, interrupted him again and said: "Mutsu Shigemitsu, the owner of this island is too lazy to talk nonsense with you, you go back and tell them, either obey His Majesty's edict, hand over all the gold and silver treasures, and bear to repay the rest of the money together in the future, otherwise, they will resist the decree, and the owner of this island will do what he says, and the only way to help His Majesty the Emperor step on you." ”
"Your Excellency....... Your Excellency, please listen to me, we have cooperated with you to help you in your crusade against other disobedient lords."
"No need, Taira Masamori is more obedient than you, and he wants less, Taira Masamori doesn't want gold and silver, as long as he dominates the power of Japan; And you, who want to retain your power and keep your gold and silver treasures, say, why should the lord of the island choose you? ”
"This ......"
"Mutsu Shigemitsu, you go back, the owner of this island is not too much, tell them that if they want to keep the power in their hands, they have to accept the same conditions as Ping Zhengsheng, and nothing else, don't talk about it."
Mutsu Shigemitsu and Miyamoto 12 went back.
The conditions of the lord of Yang Ojima were too harsh, and it was really unacceptable for Mitsunoku Mitsumi and Musashi to be the lord of Musashi, and among the Seven Nations Alliance, Musashi's Goryeo was the strongest in the army, and the remaining small countries were headed by him.
The ancestor of Goryeo was the Goguryeo royal family, whose surname was Xuanwu.
In the fifth year of Emperor Tenchi of Japan (666), Genmu Wakamitsu sent an envoy to Japan as the deputy envoy of Goguryeo. In the seventh year of Tianji (668), the Tang Dynasty and Silla destroyed Goguryeo, and Xuanwu Ruoguang lost the opportunity to return to China and stayed in Japan.
In 703, Emperor Bunmu of Japan gave Genmu Wakamitsu the surname "King of Goryeo". In 716, Japan established Goryeo Prefecture in Musashi Province and relocated 1,799 Goryeo people scattered in the Seven Kingdoms of Tokaido. Goryeo Wakaguang went to Goryeo-gun to serve as the chief (county secretary).
At this point, the Goguryeo people officially established Musashi State, and after 400 years of evolution, they have already completely become Japanese; Musashi Province is located in what is later known as Tokyo, Japan, in the heart of the so-called Kanto Plain. For decades, Musashi and the Fujiwara family have been closely united, and the Fujiwara family has been able to dominate Japanese power for half a century, without the support of Musashi.
It turned out that Yang Yi destroyed the Fujiwara family, and Goryeo was extremely dissatisfied with his achievements, and now he put forward such harsh conditions, Goryeo was unbearable and decided to fight to the death.
With the rise of the samurai class, the Kanto region has become the most powerful region in Japan over the years, and whoever controls the Kanto region will be able to control the government of Japan.
What Ping Zhengsheng is obsessed with is to take the Kanto region, and this defeat in Jiafei made Ping Zhengsheng more aware that without Yang Yi's support, he would not be able to take the Kanto region at all.
In order to fulfill his wish, he collected a large number of beauties and jewels and treasures, and sent them to Washington for Yang Yi to enjoy. I only hope that he will fully support him to take Kanto.
The owner of Yang Dadao smiled and accepted them one by one, the beauties enjoyed them themselves, and all the treasures were given to Qing Niang.
There are really a lot of things that Ping Zhengsheng scraped the ground, because Yang Yi only needed gold and silver, pearls and jade before, these treasures were not mentioned, and Ping Zhengsheng sent these things to remind Yang Dadao that these treasures can't be left for little Japan, they have to be scraped, they have to be scraped hard; Since you have the reputation of the devil, stop pretending to be a good person, no matter how you put it, either don't do it or do it absolutely.
Little Japan, little Japan, the owner of the island will not leave you a single hair this time.
It happened that the fleet sent by the imperial court also arrived, and the master of Yang Dadao was in Heianjing, and I didn't know the grand occasion when the fleet came, and it is said that under the insistence of Cai Jing, the imperial court sent a total of hundreds of large ships this time.
It can be said that almost all the ships that the imperial court can go to sea have been sent. The whole Jiaolu Harbor is covered by cloud sails and oars like a wall.
Lin Ruhai's fleet is still coming, this time it is too big for him, not to mention anything else, even if the owner of Yang Dadao and the soldiers are tired of having a woman to transport back to the Great Song Dynasty, sell it into the Qinglou or make a concubine, it is enough for him to make a lot of money.
The five hundred additional soldiers also arrived. Yang Yi immediately sent another 200 people to Murong Zhi and gave him an order: to level Musashi within three days.
It's not that the owner of Yang Dadao can't stand the pillow wind of the beauty sent by Ping Zhengsheng, and since Goryeo is not dead, then he will slaughter only **!
Let all the daimyo see, what is the end of daring to bargain with Lao Tzu.
Murong Zhi received the order to suspend the cause of "developing Japan", and after squeezing out the treasures plundered by Ping Zhengsheng according to the instructions of the lord of Yang Dadao, he immediately led four hundred people to take the lead, and the time was only three days, and Murong Zhi had to do so; It was still north of Mount Fuji, and the coalition army led by Goryeo Jingcheng saw that Murong Zhi was taking the lead, and immediately retreated, preparing to fight a sports battle with Murong Zhi and them to offset the weakness in weapons.
Murong Zhi also understands that no matter how good the flintlock pistol is, but he has few people, if he plays hide and seek with Goryeo, he is likely to suffer.
Murong Zhi made a surprising decision and ordered Ping Qingsheng to abandon all his baggage and attack Musashi Castle lightly.
Don't you want to play peek-a-boo, then you can play slowly, let's go to Musashi Castle first.
Ping Zhengsheng was full of doubts, but he did not dare to disobey Murong Zhi, leaving 5,000 men and horses to guard the baggage in Baier Mountain, and he took 10,000 people and three days of rations to attack Musashi City with Murong Zhi.
Why did you only bring three days of rations, Murong Zhi said, the order given to him by the lord of Yang Dadao was to set foot in Musashi in three days. If he can't complete the task within three days, he will kill Ping Zhengsheng first, and then cut himself to thank Yang Dadao Lord.
Goryeo Cheng didn't expect Murong Zhi and them to make a desperate bet, Musashi City is where his foundation is, and the families of his warriors are all over there, if they are occupied by Murong Zhi and them, these warriors under his command are estimated to have no need to fight anymore, and they will be defeated.
At this time, Murong Zhi and the others had rushed to the Yamanashi realm with astonishing speed, less than a hundred miles away from Musashi.
Goryeo had no choice but to lead the army in pursuit.
A strange scene appeared, Gao Li, who was originally planning to fight a guerrilla war with Murong Zhi, was actually successful, but he wished that his parents would have two more legs so that he could catch up with Murong Zhi.
