Section 369 Bombardment of Kyoto
The white crane will not take the little prince of Siam to Kyoto, the mission of the little prince is over. He was besieged by the Japanese as a guest, which in itself was an excuse. It has already done a good job to show the national strength of these small countries in South Asia and show the might of the Great Ming Naval Division, and the next thing, Bai Minghe does not want outsiders to participate.
Don't say it's them, even Huaiyu and the others didn't let them come along.
Not a single boat escaped, and no one returned to report it.
"The order was given to the Cantonese Navy Division to transfer 20 boats to the east side, and to bombard all the warships in the port of Wakuma, so as not to hurt the civilians as much as possible. Then send someone to read the notice. Bai Minghe put several notebooks with a thickness of five inches on the table: "The Fujian Navy Division Twenty Ships went to solve Fukuoka." β
Yu Qian picked up a book and flipped through it, it was obvious that this was something that Bai Minghe had prepared a long time ago, and it was a declaration.
The Japanese are still waiting for the results of the battle, but what they are waiting for is the call of death.
The Nanjing Navy divided twenty ships to sweep the port of Miyazaki, and then sealed the entrance to the Seto Inland Sea.
The Japanese were still waiting for the news of victory, but what appeared at sunrise was a huge Ming fleet, without any communication and no flags. The Ming people quickly rushed into Osaka Bay, and the twenty boats in front quickly turned their hulls horizontally, without any warning, and nearly thirty Da'an houses in Osaka Bay were broken into pieces of wood by artillery fire.
The huge Great White Shark sailed directly into the Yodo River, and all the ships that stood in its way were crushed by the force.
No matter how big the boat on the river was, the Great White Shark, a large fortune ship with a length of more than 100 meters and a bottom thickness exceeding the size of a small boat, was completely crushed like a toy.
"Ask Ashikaga Yoshimasa to come and see this official." Shira-naso stood at the bow of the boat, and someone shouted in his place.
The 100,000 Japanese watched as the huge ship rushed into their Kyoto, and watched as the cannon destroyed what they thought was the invincible Daiyataku ship. Especially when they saw the black holes and holes of the iron tools of the Ming ships in the sea aimed at them, many Japanese people stood in place and did not move.
Excessive fear made them forget and run away.
"Kill ......," someone stood on the shore with a spear in hand, throwing it at the nearest boat from afar.
There was a loud bang, a cannon shot, and the man couldn't find his body, and the huge impact of the cast-iron cannonball smashed him to pieces, and the houses behind him, which were fifty paces long, fell in pieces. The Japanese people saw clearly that there was still smoke coming out of the muzzle. The rest of the muzzles remained calm.
The muzzle of the cannon quickly disappeared and was pulled back into the cabin.
It didn't take much effort to stretch out again.
Even those who don't know about artillery can see that this cannon can do it again, and those guns that stick out of the ship's cabin can be attacked at any time, and the huge lethality makes the Japanese feel fearful.
Ashikaga Yoshimasa, how could he not know that the ship of the Ming Dynasty had arrived, and it was proved that they had lost, completely lost.
How to face it is what Ashikaga Yoshimasa is difficult for.
There was no movement. didn't reply, not even a sound, this is ignoring the white crane of the deposit.
Fan Liang lifted the double hammer in his hand: "It seems that he doesn't know why Hong'er is red without seeing blood." When Chen Adaa heard this, he said next to him: "It's wrong, it's why the flowers are so red." β
"Stop!" Yu Qian snorted coldly, killing people indiscriminately at the moment is definitely the most stupid way to do it.
Bai Minghe said lightly: "Get off the boat!" β
The boat was leaning on the shore, and it was no longer possible to go any further, and it was a mistake for the Daifuku ship to enter the Yodo River. The river here is not wide enough and not deep enough. If you go further inside, you will be trapped, so the great white shark will have to stop. The idea of shelling the General's Mansion seems to be difficult to realize, and I knew that I should let the boat go ahead.
The white-named crane came to the shore, and here is the north bank of the river.
It is a living area for small industrialists, a living area made of pure wooden planks. Very shabby.
Looking at the front of him, Bai Minghe pointed to a young man who was standing in place with trembling legs and didn't dare to move, and asked, "Do you live here?" Is this your house? β
The young widow fell to his knees, trembling with fright.
A scribe who knew Japanese next to Bai Minghe asked in Japanese once, but the man just said yes repeatedly. I asked for a name, but I didn't have a surname. It's just that the name is Koshiro.
"How much is your house worth?"
How much is the house worth? The young man did not know how to answer, he was a carpenter, and his whole family was carpenters. The main livelihood is to repair ships, and every day they go to the docks to repair old boats, whether they are fishing boats or cargo ships. Before it was time to go to work today, Daming's terrible giant ship suddenly appeared at his doorstep.
That's right, it's his doorstep.
There are countless small boats on both sides of the Yodo River, and there are also countless homes. His family's boat was also crushed.
A soldier placed two bags of rice, three horses of fine white linen, and twenty copper coins of the Ming Dynasty in front of him at the signal of the white crane, and the scribe asked again: "Is it enough for your house?" β
The man hesitated, and threw two small silver ingots of five taels on the cloth.
"Enough, enough!"
"This piece, take out a hundred steps of open space. The official is here waiting for Ashikaga Yoshimasa, and he can not come. Shirana said with a hint of a smile, believing that his words would reach the ears of Ashikaga Yoshimasa.
He didn't dare not come, if he didn't come, he would have given himself the excuse to attack Wajima, but Shirana Tsuru was also giving him time, and he could appear when this piece was emptied, and this time could make Ashikaga Yoshimasa think about it, what to do, what to pay.
The actual size of a hundred steps is the size of thirty-eight acres.
This is not one, there are at least 150 of them in this densely populated area.
Dismantle. All the houses in this garden were torn down.
It was not the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who demolished the house, but all the Japanese people working. As long as you work, you will be paid 30 catties of rice, and you will be rewarded for doing well. In addition, Bai Minghe also sued these Japanese people that whose boat on the river was crushed and compensated according to the price.
There are many people who come, ninety percent of them are true, and a few are idlers who want to take advantage of the opportunity.
Daming didn't ask a word here, as long as you come, there will definitely be compensation, you have everything, whether it is rice, cloth, or gold, silver, and copper coins.
"Didn't he say that he was going to bombard Kyoto?" Takaya couldn't figure it out.
"He fired." Yu Qian said next to him.
Gao Gu pointed around: "The shelling should have blown up all the qiΔ here, but sinking a few ships is not called shelling." Compared to his way of fighting at sea, it was only a few ships that fired two rounds of guns. β
Yu Qian sighed softly: "Elder Gao, will you have nothing to do to burn down your own house." β
"You're stupid for me?" Takaya's tone was a little unpleasant.
"So Bai Minghe is not stupid, because the one qiΔ you see in front of you is in the eyes of Bai Minghe, this is all occupied by him, all the people here, all the one qiΔ may become his workshop, so he will definitely not ruin this place. Unless he can't get along with silver, which is clearly a big fan of it. Yu Qian still knows Bai Minghe, and he knows very well that Bai Minghe will definitely not be merciful without reason.
Yu Qian's explanation made Hu Hu smile non-stop.
Wang Wen didn't understand: "This is the Kyoto of Wajima, and that country is like ceding land and not ceding Kyoto." β
"He doesn't want it, just wait and see. Or, if you peruse the manifesto of the white crane, you will understand. β
Shirana Crane was speaking his proclamation under the boat, and there were already enough Japanese people gathered here, young and old, some wearing silk, and many merchants with their names on their bodies.
"This official is the official of the Ming Dynasty, and I went to sea to play with my wife and children. I don't understand why your generals would send thousands of ships to attack their own officers. Does my Ming official ship look like a merchant ship? Using such a thing as piracy as an excuse, are your generals laughing at me? β
Bai Minghe said, and a hundred sergeants knocked on the armor neatly, full of momentum.
"To put it bluntly, it's greed. Your generals are too greedy for money, for I have innumerable treasures of gold and silver on my ships. It seems that your peasant family is so poor that he has no more money to squeeze......"
Shirana Tsuru spent half an hour lecturing on finance, economics, and taxation during the Muromachi period. All kinds of oppression of peasant households, all kinds of oppression of ordinary handicraftsmen, all the white cranes are speaking according to the number jΓΉ, of course, some of them use the method of breaking the paragraph to take the meaning, and avoid a little on the basis of truth.
"I heard that some people rebelled because they couldn't live."
Bai Minghe's words touched people's hearts, and it was the people who suffered the most who listened to him here. There were even scholars from the Wa Kingdom who were recording Bai Minghe's speech.
"I'm a white crane, and I'm willing to make friends everywhere. The Siamese and Nanzhang people regard me as a friend, and their princes accompany me on my travels, for your general has attacked my own officials, and my friends have been frightened. If there is a war, it will be the people who will die, and it will be the people who will suffer. Bai Minghe himself was speaking, and then asked the scribe to translate.
Bai Da flickered and stood on a high platform.
"The people of the Lee family of Goryeo are not bitter, they are not poor. Surely some of you here know. But you don't know the current Lee Goryeo, this official has brought them countless wealth. They lived more affluently than before, and a good craftsman would have an income of five stone of rice, two pieces of cloth, ten catties of oil, and ten catties of meat a month. β
"How can a craftsman earn so much?" Some of the Japanese did not believe.
"What will you do?" The white crane spoke very slowly, seemingly careless, but staring at the look of the widow.
"I know how to make ropes." The widow ran away, and soon came back with a bundle of rope on his back.
At that moment, a soldier took the rope and sent it to the white crane, and the Japanese man was also brought forward. (To be continued......)
