Kyushu

"Yaga, how could the shogunate make such a decision! It's impossible for my Fujita high school sophomore to follow such an order, absolutely impossible! ”

In the palace of the lord of Miyazaki Castle, there was a curse.

The news from the shogunate has reached Kyushu, and it is faster than Zhao Hongyu's fleet from the sea to Kyushu.

The daimyo lords here in Kyushu have also heard a little about what happened in Edo.

It's just that to their surprise, everyone didn't expect that the shogun and the emperor were actually captured.

The rumored foreigners who came here from the far ends of the ocean, are they really that strong in combat? Or maybe the Shogun and Ishida's soldiers were too weak?

In everyone's minds, such an idea came to mind.

However, Kyushu was still a little too far away from Edo, so they couldn't get some very detailed information.

If it weren't for the shogunate sending someone to spread the word, they wouldn't even know that the shogunate had reached a decision with those foreigners to cede Kyushu.

This resolution, in the eyes of the daimyo of Kyushu, is simply very unreasonable.

Moreover, after ceding Kyushu, where should they, the indigenous families of Kyushu, go?

Come to think of it, it must be the shogunate's plan to kill people with a sword.

It must be like this.

Everyone's hearts were churning with anger, and they gritted their teeth with hatred for the shogunate.

In fact, it's no wonder that the daimyo here in Kyushu have such thoughts, after all, since the Warring States period, the daimyo here in Kyushu have been far away from the imperial court.

Nominally, they all obey the orders of the shogunate, but in essence, they have some rules of the Kyushu people themselves, and even some orders of the imperial court and the shogunate, they basically disobey and do not obey.

It's just that the Warring States period has ended, and the people at the bottom are at ease.

So, for the sake of stability. The Ishida shogunate also decided to stop fighting and not wage war again.

Therefore, the Ming people in Kyushu nominally submitted to the shogunate and paid some taxes according to a certain amount every year.

But these taxes are actually a pitiful amount, and the shogunate will turn a blind eye.

In other words, Kyushu is very independent in nature.

But now everything has changed, and in order to ensure the lives of the emperor and the shogun, the shogunate actually ceded Kyushu without authorization.

This simply doesn't take them Kyushu people into account.

When the shogunate and the imperial court. You can be the master of this for the people of Kyushu.

You know, this is a very big deal.

It's really intolerable.

What kind of Ishida Hiroshi is, I don't know how wasteful he is, and he will be captured by some foreigners.

It seems that the post-Ishida shogunate was really a wretch.

Anyway, now that the agreement has been reached, the shogunate has sent someone to inform the relevant news.

The rest is to wait for those foreigners to come and take over Kyushu.

As is the case with normal practice. If the daimyo on the Kyushu side were appointed by the imperial court and the shogunate, then these people would not say anything.

But the problem is that the daimyo here in Kyushu have lived here since the Warring States period.

Arguably. They are natives of Kyushu, and they are also the landowners here in Kyushu.

If they leave Kyushu, where will they go?

Although the envoy's words are good, you can go to Edo and live. And the shogunate gave them the right arrangement.

But anyone who is not a fool will understand that once they leave here in Kyushu, they will lose everything. Without taxes, it is impossible to raise soldiers. And if they didn't have the military strength, they would have been raised like pigs when they arrived in Edo.

And, having lost the guarantee of force, they had to look at the face of the shogunate.

If they have any dissatisfaction, isn't it like the shogunate is playing with himself?

Besides, the people of Kyushu are not subject to the management of the shogunate, and the shogunate has long looked at them as unpleasant.

Therefore, when they arrived in Edo, they would never be well received.

Therefore, considering the various circumstances, they must not leave Kyushu.

Among them, Fujita Takaji, a daimyo in the Miyazaki area, reacted the most violently to this.

However, although they are very disgusted and reluctant to do this, they feel very difficult about this problem.

The reason for this is quite simple.

Because the emperor is still in the hands of those foreigners.

Yes, they had to think about the safety of His Royal Highness the Emperor, so even if they were very unhappy, they could not say that they did not abide by this agreement.

As for the unlucky Hiroshi Ishida, they don't pay attention to it.

Compared to the emperor, Hiroshi Ishida is actually a fart.

Even if this guy dies, those Ishida retainers on the shogunate side will choose a new general in the end.

But the emperor is different.

You must know that there is only one male in the Imperial Family, that is, the current Emperor himself.

I don't know how to do it, although the emperor has a lot of wives, but he just has no descendants.

But if the emperor had a descendant, things wouldn't have become so difficult.

After all, it is a family of the eternal line, and the emperor still has a lot of influence in the hearts of the people at the bottom of the Japanese country.

Therefore, they can't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Because the daimyo here in Kyushu all know that if the emperor is harmed because of them, they really have no way to retreat.

At that time, even if they withdraw from Kyushu, the huge Wa Kingdom will no longer have a foothold for them.

No matter where they go, the people there will not help them, and even the daimyo will kill them.

But the problem is that if they are allowed to leave Kyushu like this, these people are really not willing at all.

It's like people who are used to being the emperor of the soil, and suddenly let them be a landlord without power, which is very unacceptable.

Because at that time, they will no longer have the right to control life and death as they do now.

This person, once he has enjoyed the stimulation brought by power. I can't give up anyway. This is the situation that the daimyo here in Kyushu are encountering now.

And they are all dragging their families one by one, and they need a lot of money every month for them to squander. If you leave Kyushu and go to Kyushu to rely on Edo for help, you won't be able to maintain such a standard of living, will you?

Losing power and losing the current state of life is really embarrassing.

However, the shogunate ignored so much, they just reported the news, and did not care about anything else.

In addition, he also informed the various feudal lords and daimyo in the world of this news, so that they all clearly understood this decision.

When the time comes. If something goes wrong on the Kyushu side and the emperor is harmed, the shogunate can be completely cleared up.

Even, the shogunate wished that the people on the Kyushu side would jump out and find some trouble, and then let the emperor be harmed.

Because in this way, the shogunate can hand over the black cauldron to the people of Kyushu to carry it, isn't it?

The insidious shogunate!

At that time, the shogunate could even stand up with righteousness and call on the whole country to form an army to fight foreigners.

At that time, the emperor and the shogun no longer existed, and the shogunate would not have any taboos in doing things. Completely can let go is for.

It's really a good abacus to play a hand.

Fujita High School, as a person with a relatively high IQ among the Kyushu daimyos, of course saw these factors that were unfavorable to the people of Kyushu.

That's why he kept screaming and scolding loudly in his residence.

But scolding is scolding. He also had to take seriously what was going to happen.

Now there are only two ways to go in front of him, one is to follow the decision of the shogunate and leave Kyushu with Lilisoso.

If you choose this path, it will basically be a bastard waiting to die for Fujita's sophomore year of high school. There will be no way out for him in the future.

But they can ensure that their families enjoy a stable life.

And if he goes, he will have the rights he has now, and the living conditions he has now.

Of course, there is another way to go.

This day the road is much simpler. It is to gather all the forces he can control, gather them and prepare to confront the foreigners, without thinking about the emperor and the general, as long as those foreigners dare to land in Kyushu, he will fight them to the death.

It's just that if you choose such a path, basically Fujita will have to face a lot of problems in her sophomore year of high school.

First of all, he had to make sure that he could defeat the foreigners.

At the same time, after defeating the foreigners, they immediately had to prepare for reproaches and attacks from the shogunate.

After all, as long as his side attacked those foreigners, then the emperor and the shogun would definitely not continue to live. According to the general custom, both the emperor and the shogun were executed by each other.

Therefore, he must bear the charge of killing the emperor.

When the time comes, after defeating those foreigners, the shogunate will definitely settle all this.

The death of the emperor must also be carried out by finding someone, otherwise it will be impossible to calm the anger of the people.

And the emperor died because of himself, and the people here in Kyushu will not be able to count on it at that time. Even in the army, there will be a situation where people's hearts will fluctuate, and I don't know if Lu Dao will be able to cope with the menacing shogunate army.

Therefore, if you choose this path, the road ahead is also very bumpy and bumpy.

At the same time, it is also unknown whether these foreigners are easy to deal with.

Although Fujita is on the Kyushu side of high school, he doesn't know exactly what happened on the Edo side.

However, according to the reports of the ninjas under his command, it seems that the army composed of these foreigners is very strong in combat, and with only a few thousand men, it was able to fight against the crusading army sent by the shogunate in the early stage for more than a month, and won several battles.

Therefore, an army like this should not be underestimated.

Judging from the above circumstances, if he chooses this path, then he can't let the Miyazaki area do it himself, and at least he must unite with the other twelve Kyushu daimyo to do this thing together.

Only by uniting the whole of Kyushu into a whole can we cope with what is going to happen next.

Don't look at the small size of Kyushu, it is completely impossible to compare with the area controlled by the shogunate.

However, there is one advantage that the shogunate does not have on the Kyushu side, that is, the folk customs on the Kyushu side are very strong, so the soldiers in this area are the most elite in the whole Wa country.

Don't dare to say anything else, a Kyushu soldier can deal with three or four soldiers from other domains, and that is absolutely not a problem.

This is also the reason why the daimyo in the Kyushu region dared to disobey the orders of the shogunate, but the shogunate not only ignored but also kept a guard against them.

Fujita High School scolded for a while, and then looked at the old Matsushita Sho who was following him.

"Is there any news about the Ito family and the Kato family now?" , he asked.

The two that Fujita asked about were both powerful daimyo in Kyushu.

These two daimyos, along with the Fujita family, are the three most powerful daimyo in Kyushu, because in their hands they have the general strength of the whole of Kyushu.

Therefore, if Fujita High School wants to go against foreigners and ignore the emperor's life or death, he must go with these two families.

With the addition of these two families, then the remaining nine daimyo can also be coerced to join.

When the time comes, the strength of the whole Kyushu will be integrated, and it will not be impossible to fight.

Perhaps, by taking advantage of this opportunity, the people of Kyushu will be able to go out of Kyushu and seize Shikoku and other regions.

You must know that they have always wanted to get out of Kyushu in the era of war results, but they didn't do it because of some trivial reasons at the beginning.

By the time they wanted to act again, the Warring States period was over.

Therefore, they, the native natives of Kyushu, just stay in this place.

Sho Matsushita, the old man of the Fujita family, who followed Fujita High School, was an old man in his sixties with two long eyebrows.

The old man had a big bald head on his head and was dressed in a black samurai kimono, and he looked kind.

"There is no news from these two families yet, although the family has issued a summoning order, but it is impossible to say who will come here. But one thing is for sure, no one is willing to leave Kyushu. ”

Sho Matsushita said his judgment with great certainty.

As the patriarch of the Fujita family and also a military advisor, Matsushita knows the situation here in Kyushu too well.

It is precisely because of this understanding that he will have such a judgment.

In all fairness, it is unacceptable to put this matter on anyone.

"That's what I estimated, so I'm going not to abide by the shogunate's agreement with foreigners."

After stopping, Fujita High School had a gloomy face, turned around and told his family elder his plan. (To be continued......)
