Chapter 693: Maori Surrenders

"Your Highness, there is a letter of surrender in Nagasaki Castle."

Zhu Houhuang was about to fall asleep, but he heard the words of the guards.

Zhu Houhuang's spirit was shocked and said, "Take it." He took it and looked at it, but it was the Maori family who wanted to surrender. It's not much, it's just a formality.

Zhu Houhuang immediately called Wu Fengyi over, handed the letter to Wu Fengyi and said, "Uncle thinks this is true or false? ”

Wu Fengyi took it and watched it carefully.

It's just a letter of more than 100 words, Wu Fengyi read it several times, and finally said: "The Maori retainers know that Maori is called a wise general by the Japanese, and he also has some reputation, but this letter is true or false." But the minister did not dare to guarantee it. ”

Maori is known as the first wise general in the West. But Wu Fengyi felt that she was the first in the West, and her tone was too big, so she omitted this comment and only said that it was a wise general.

Zhu Houhuang sighed and said secretly: "Jinyiwei's investigation of the Ouchi clan is still not enough. ”

Zhu Houhuang took the letter and fell into deep thought. Whether this thing is true or not. If it's true, that's great, but if it's fake.

This is yet another trap.

Zhu Houhuang felt that he was still lacking in these intrigues.

"Your Highness." Wu Fengyi said: "Why don't you see the person who delivered the letter? ”

Zhu Houhuang said: "Okay, is the person who delivered the letter here?" ”

"Yes." Said one of the guards.

Zhu Houhuang secretly said in his heart: "I still have no experience, such a private matter, it is absolutely impossible to fake it with people, I think what is said in this letter is only the basic content, what I really want to talk about is the person who sent the letter." ”

"The foreign minister Maoli has seen His Royal Highness King Yong." A Japanese samurai falls to his knees on the ground.

Zhu Houhuang raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you Maoli Yuan?" ”

Maori said, "The minister is the head of the Maori clan. Gross profit is yuan. ”

Zhu Houhuang said: "You are so bold, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" ”

Maori Yuan said: "Afraid, how can you not be afraid, but what if you are afraid, now that the victory or defeat of the war in Nagasaki has been decided, it is just a moment of late death in the city, and only by asking to see His Highness can there be a glimmer of life for the Maori clan." ”

Zhu Houhuang smiled: "Your sycophants are good." Believe you, and say, what do you want? ”

Maori said: "The minister doesn't want anything, I just want to ask His Highness to let His Highness Ouchi go?" ”

"Are you talking about Ouchi Yoshiko?" Zhu Houhuang said: "This is Your Majesty's order, and there is no way to do it." ”

Mori said on the moto: "The minister asked His Highness to let go of the Ouchi clan? Take only one city of Nagasaki? ”、

Zhu Houhuang asked with a smile: "Gu asked what you wanted, why did you say the Ouchi clan, you can't represent the Ouchi clan, and the thing you negotiated with me is to betray the Ouchi clan." ”

Maori said: "If the minister is only Maori, the minister is willing to live and die with His Highness Ouchi, but the minister is the head of the Maori family, so he must think about the Maori family." The Maori family can't die in my hands, but the betrayal of Nagasaki Castle and the betrayal of His Highness Ouchi made the minister feel uneasy, so the minister is willing to intercede for the Ouchi clan in exchange for peace in his heart. ”

"Even if you do? I'm afraid the Ouchi clan won't let you go. Zhu Houhuang said.

"In this way, the minister doesn't owe anything to the Ouchi clan, and the rest of them will speak with their swords." Maori said what Yuan said, and he was loud.

Zhu Houhuang felt that this Maori was also a talent, so he had a little love for talent, and said: "It's good that Gu has responded to you, and he will take Nagasaki City, if the Ouchi clan doesn't continue to entangle, Lone will let the Ouchi clan go." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness." Maori said.

Zhu Houhuang said: "Then when will you dedicate the city?" ”

Maori said, "After His Highness blasted the city wall. And the ministers offered the city. ”

Zhu Houhuang sneered: "After the city wall is opened, do you still need to come to offer the city?" ”

Maori said, "Yes." His Royal Highness Ouchi Yoshiko has dug a trench in the inner city of the city, and built a new city wall, even if His Royal Highness breaks through the city wall for a while, he can't attack it, but when His Royal Highness breaks through the city wall, the attention of the whole city is focused on the gap in the city wall, and at that time, the minister will have the opportunity to open the city gate and let His Highness in. ”

"Okay." Zhu Houhuang said: "Lonely aunt, believe you." ”

Maori didn't dare to stay for a long time and went back immediately.

After Zhu Houhuang left, he asked Wu Fengyi: "Uncle, you are well-informed, what kind of person do you think this Maoli Yuanyuan is?" ”

Wu Fengyi said: "He is a smart person. He kept saying that he was grateful for the kindness of the Ouchi clan, and he betrayed the Ouchi clan for the sake of the Maori family, and it was completely out of necessity. But in fact, no matter how good things he said, he couldn't cover up the fact that he personally destroyed the main force of the Ouchi clan. It looks loyal, but it's actually for Your Highness to see. ”

"For Lonely?" Zhu Houhuang thought about it secretly, he really didn't see it, and said, "What do you want to show Lone?" Why show it to Lonely. ”

Wu Fengyi said: "He wants to defect to me Dongyong." So to clear your identity as a traitor, you know, traitors are not welcome anywhere, however, I don't think a person like him will give people such a big handle, why should he personally betray the Ouchi clan? It stands to reason that a smart person like him should be hiding behind his back. ”

Zhu Houhuang smiled and said: "Lone knows, because I Dongyong will not stay in Japan for a long time, he is hiding behind his back, how can he reveal himself in front of Lone." Zhu Houhuang paused slightly and said, "Uncle, do you think he can be trusted?" ”

Wu Fengyi said slowly: "Credible is above sixty percent." ”

"Why?" Zhu Houhuang asked.

"Because this one wants greatly." Wu Fengyi said.

Zhu Houhuang said: "A good one asks for a lot. ”

Zhu Houhuang had to admit that Mao Li was accurate, and Zhu Houhuang really needed a talent who was familiar with Japan to take charge of Dongyong's affairs on Japan, and even Nagasaki Castle and even Sado Island on Tsushima Island, these places need a person to manage.

But such talents are not easy to find.

Dongyong can block the responsibilities of the side, and there is one by one, almost all of them were sent out by Zhu Houhuang. There has always been a talent gap, and Maoli is not a talent.

Be.

It's just that whether you can be trusted or not is another matter.

Mori returned to Nagasaki Castle and meditated silently.

He didn't want to betray Ouchi Yoshixing, as Wu Fengyi said, the reputation of a traitor is not good anywhere, but he has a reason to do it, without him, it is because of the Maori family.

The Maori army in the city is the foundation of the Maori family, and there must be no losses, at least too much. In his opinion, the battle of Nagasaki is already invincible, and if he persists. The loss of the Maori family was too great.

But things don't just go by surrendering.

Once he surrenders, he will greatly offend the Ouchi clan, the Maori family has an enmity with the Niko family, and offends the Ouchi clan, so where is the Maori family to stand?

The Maori family must have a thigh to hug, and the only thigh in front of him is Dongyong.

But whether Dongyong will stay in Japan for a long time, and even whether Dongyong will accept Japanese daimyos, this is the problem.

Maori said secretly in his heart: "I must show my ability, let His Royal Highness King Yong see it, and let the Maori family be protected by His Royal Highness King Yong." ”

It was a thrilling job hop for the Maori family. Maybe this jump will jump into the bottomless abyss. But there is no other choice for Maoli Yuan.

Staying on the boat of the Ouchi clan, there is only one idea.

Mori called all his retainers and told them the situation, saying, "Even if we hold on to this battle to the end, there is no hope of victory, so we must make a choice for the Mori family." In the night after the city walls were breached, it was a good opportunity for us to do our best, and everything had to be done to the fullest. ”

"Hey." The samurai of the Maori family bowed deeply.

Maori Yuan let go of the hand pressed on the long sword, pressed his hands on his knees, hung his head heavily, and said, "Please, this is a crisis for the survival of my Maori family." ”、

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, even if we all die, the Maori family will still exist."

"No matter what, the Maori family will still exist."

“--------”

Everything is ready, just wait for the moment.
