Section 365 Dead soldiers
The Wajima Imagawa family is the same clan of the Ashikaga family of the most Spo clan, and the same ancestral surname is Gen, and it is a descendant of the Kiyowa Genji.
The two little guardians dared to be disrespectful to the Zong family, which was already a provocation to the General's Mansion. The Oda family has been the guardian generation of the three collars for generations. And the Takeda family is even worse, the Southern Takeda clan fell decades ago, so that some small families are forced to even return to Kai to continue to be the guardian of the impossible, and now they dare to make trouble with the Oda family for the Imagawa clan.
Kitatakeda heard that the power is good, but lately it has been quiet and terrifying.
All kinds of news are flying all over the sky, but I don't know which one is true.
Until one day, a small accident occurred from a water tea house in Kumano, southern Wajima.
The little leader of a certain pirate force, a small man, after getting drunk, claimed to keep the most beautiful woman in the water tea house for a whole year, because he was about to get rich, and they took over the most powerful smuggling in history, a smuggling enough to go down in history, a mountain of steel!
Steel? Where does this thing come from, there is only one way to smuggle steel, and that is to get it from Daming.
After three days, the group of pirates to which the little boss belonged disappeared, and the body of the little boss was found under a tree.
The Ashikaga shogun's office began to face up to this matter.
All kinds of information are gathered together and placed in front of the contemporary shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa.
The seventeen-year-old Ashikaga Yoshimasa is still a young man with enough impulses and ambitions to revitalize the Wakoku.
"A few days ago, the king of the Ryukyus wanted to exchange a piece of information for a free tribute. It seems like it should be heard. Young Ashikaga Yoshimasa spoke.
Sitting next to him were the important ministers of the Ashikaga family, as well as his uncle and important people in the family.
"When he was alive, it would be good to be free of tribute. What important information can a small Ryukyus have! ”
"See and hear." Several important ministers agreed that there was likely to be important information at this sensitive time.
Soon, Shang Ba Shan was brought in, and was forced to the ground to ask the general to kneel, Shang Ba Shan was a hundred unwilling in his heart, in Shang Ba Shan's heart, you are a small general of the Japanese state, compared with the white lord who is high in the Ming Dynasty. It's just a character. None of the big names in the Ming Dynasty let themselves kneel. Instead, they drank like brothers.
Inexplicable hatred poured out from the depths of his heart, and his face was even more indignant.
"We are willing to listen to your information. But it is not possible to exempt the tribute forever, and you can consider giving you a reduction for a certain number of years! ”
"Da Ming people. Robbed me of Shiheng Island. The woman who robbed me. Robbed my palace. But let me laugh and play with them and dance for them. They are going to take my Amami Island and force my sons to be slaves to them! "Mt. Chamba shouted. The grief and indignation in his heart came from the humiliation brought to him by the Japanese people.
The Japanese people knew about Shiheng Island, and at least forty boats disappeared there.
It must have been done by the people of the Ming Dynasty, in order to prevent the Japanese from going to Nanyang to trade, I heard that the Nanzhang people also killed their envoys with the help of the Ming people. Several important ministers were deliberating.
And the young Ashikaga Yoshimasa thought that his cousin had his head cut off, and his cousin was crying under the Daming, but this humiliation was something he could never accept.
"Da Ming?" Ashikaga Yoshimasa asked in a suppressed voice.
"His name is White Crane!" Shang Bashan roared with all his might.
Hearing the name Shirana Tsuru, Ashikaga Yoshimasa jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. The white crane is too hateful, the Ming Dynasty has not killed as many people as he alone in so many years, his own envoys have been humiliated, and the trade fleet he sent has almost never returned, only a few ships of the little guardian generation have returned.
A lot of information says that it was made by the Oda family and the Takeda family.
Because in the past year, the power of the two families has increased greatly, and whoever has ever seen the infantry team with pure steel spears is only the infantry of the Oda family.
"Your information is valuable, when you and your son live, you don't have to pay tribute, let's talk about it!" Ashikaga Yoshimasa asked murderously.
"At the moment, Shirana Tsuru is on a small island south of Amami, and there are only ten boats except for his own boat."
Shang Bashan was taken down, whether his was true or false. The Ashikaga Shogun's Office did not believe it completely, but it had the heart to continue to inquire.
In the next few days, it can be said that the central and southern parts of Wajima were in a constant war, and the Oda family prepared hundreds of dead soldiers ready to send false information, each of whom gave two thousand taels of silver, or the equivalent of any supplies. All of these expenses came from the warehouses of Shira-naka Tsuru, and the most these people wanted was silk, or a priceless place in Wajima.
This quota is the special training camp, as long as the people in this battalion are qualified, they can become the captain of 100 people, and the Ming Dynasty will pay the military salary, and they can get more rewards in the assignment.
This place can be reserved for their families.
If they can come back alive, then they will also have a place, and if they die, there will be three family members.
The deceased who had been deliberately arrested gave out what he knew under torture, and a few dead men who had been arranged to pretend to betray him took the ninjas of the Shogun's Mansion to see the secret warehouse of the Oda family, which was boxes and boxes of gold bars, and hundreds of very beautiful young girls who were locked up in a certain garden.
These are all wealth that is ready to be exchanged with the Ming Dynasty.
"200,000 stone steel!" Ashikaga Yoshimasa was holding two pieces of steel, one from a sample from the Iwami family in the north, and the other from a dead soldier of the Oda family.
"Your Excellency, the quality of these two pieces of steel is different. The one from the Oda family is better, and the weight is exactly the same as a knife, which can be directly burned red to make a knife, and the quality of the steel is Takabai Steel, while the Iwami family handed over is inferior Hundred Steel. According to the intelligence, the Iwami family was smuggled out by Da Mingwei. ”
While the people in the General's Mansion were reporting, Ashikaga Yoshimasa suddenly pulled out his treasure knife and slashed at the larger ingot. There was only a small mark on the ingot, and his sword was broken into three.
"This is the white crane personally traded. To the Oda family and the Minami Takeda family! ”
The important minister of the general's palace took out a short knife and put it on the table: "This is obtained from the Oda family's refuge people, and the knives equipped by the elite samurai of the Oda family are made of this steel zuò." ”
Dare to give the Oda family 200,000 stone of such steel, the result is terrible.
"Organize troops to destroy the Oda family, but ......" Ashikaga Yoshimasa shook his head: "However, it would be better if you could get this batch of steel and then destroy the Oda family." Then we handed over some pirates to make amends to the Ming Dynasty, and then sent a large amount of tribute. Let Iwami Country bribe those Ming generals who participated in smuggling, and our Wa Kingdom is the country of the rising sun. ”
"Hahayi!" The people from the General's Mansion responded in unison.
The general just expressed an attitude, and the specific way was naturally considered by the people in the General's Mansion.
The Oda family is also preparing for the war, and they can be said to have gambled on a qiē. Either succeed. They will be the largest force in the south-central part of Wajima. Either it fails. But after the defeat, the Oda family still has a chance to escape from Wajima with the power of the white crane, and then find a chance to kill it back.
If you want to be ruthless, the people of the Ming Dynasty in this era are really ruthless.
Wang Wen sat on the Blue Shark, the flagship of the Fujian Navy Division, and the ships named after sharks were all ships with a class. And the shark is the overlord of the sea. It is even more liked by the generals of the sailors.
Blue Ocean wrote a military order. I didn't use ink, and I cut my fingers and pressed the mudra.
"If defeated, my Lao Lan family of thirty-six is willing to be subject to military law!" Blue Ocean is gambling on his life, and he is not just gambling on his life. As a small commander in naval warfare, he is responsible for the victory or defeat of a fleet. This is the first foreign sea battle in the true sense of the Daming Navy, and it is a battle that cannot afford to lose.
Each captain came in turn to write the military order and press the handprint.
Defeat is death.
Fujian Naval Division This is the main force of the First World War, and the officials above the third grade of the Fujian Metropolitan Division who did not participate in the war are also gambling on their lives, if they are defeated, the Fujian Metropolitan Division cannot afford this responsibility, and they will be demoted, and they will die.
In the first few days, after the warships on Shirana's side sank a few small boats on Wajima, the wind calmed down at sea.
"Looking at the direction of the wind, it will be a northeast wind in five days, and it will definitely be the day of the decisive battle."
"Let's start preparing for battle, inform Hua Mei and Zhang Mao to prepare!" Shirana Crane knew that the time had come to make a decision.
Sun Yuanjun and the others were put on the ship, preparing to go south to the safe area of Naha Port. Only then did Bai Minghe go to the Prince of Siam: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, I'm really very, very sorry, this official has received information that the Japanese have mobilized 800 ships of all sizes to prepare to go south, and it may be aimed at this official, so please go south to a safe sea area!" ”
"What about you?" The little prince was here for a few days, and every day he saw him eating, drinking, and merrymaking.
"My soldiers are here, and in the Ming Dynasty, I never escaped as a commander and let the soldiers face the enemy. Women and children can leave, I can't. I want to let the Japanese people take a look, I don't dare to provoke casually. Bai Minghe said murderously.
The little prince has heard the news these days and is just here to have fun and complete some transactions casually.
The news of the war was estimated to be unexpected, but the more than 800 ships could not be gathered in a short time, and it was obvious that this was a premeditated move, not necessarily aimed at the white crane.
When Bai Minghe didn't answer, Prince Nanzhang said, "I, Nanzhang, am willing to fight with Lord Bai." ”
"If you are not afraid of our trouble, you are willing to stand by your side, Brother Bai!" The little prince also made a decision.
"Okay, then fight!" Bai Minghe didn't refuse, he called these two people over to give himself one more excuse, and by the way, let them see what a Daming Shui Master is.
As the days passed, the clouds of war began to thicken.
The head of the Minami Takeda family issued weapons to all the women in the family: "Either you succeed or you die." The day when I, the Takeda family, will return to Kai tomorrow. You say, "Do you want riches, women, or fields?" Fight with me! The samurai of the Takeda clan shouted, raising his weapon aloft in the air.
And the narrow northern weapon family, Takeda Nobuei, who had met Shirana Tsuru, was wearing armor and waiting for a guest in the middle of the night. (To be continued......)
