However, in any case, Edo Castle was finally taken, and now the eastern Kyushu Island and Shikoku Island have fallen into the hands of the Ming army, and the eastern, southern, and northern parts of Honshu Island have also fallen into the hands of the Ming army, and the surrender of the western feudal domains has also been a matter of recent days, as for Hokkaido, Hokkaido is vast and sparsely populated, and the Ming army only needs to send a few infantry battalions and cavalry battalions to conquer Hokkaido.

In the past few days, the daimyo from all over the country have rushed to Edo, the new shogun is coming out, Tokugawa Iemitsu is dead, this position is basically Tokugawa Ieduna's, Tokugawa Ietsuna is still old, all the strength will fall into the hands of a few old foxes in Edo City, and it must be done well, so as to ensure that their position and territory are still in their hands in the future.

However, when he entered Edo Castle, he found out that things were not like that at all, none of the daimyo of the Tokugawa family could see him, and the Tokugawa family had never shown up, and no one knew what was going on.

When all the daimyo arrived in Edo, things suddenly took a drastic turn, yes, it was a complete upheaval!

The general is not Tokugawa Ietsuna, but Aoyama Tadashi, almost all the daimyo are dumbfounded, Aoyama Tadashi, what qualifications does this kid have to be a general? Joke, what else will he do besides slap the sycophants of the Tokugawa Shogun?

One by one, the daimyo jumped out, unconvinced, just unconvinced, even if he let the doll of Tokugawa Ietsuna continue to be the general of the expedition, it is much stronger than this Aoyama Tadashi, this guy is greedy, except for money, he is useless!

However, how did they know that now Qingshan Zhongjun's big backer has fallen, but people have found a more powerful backer - Daming!

This time, in order to be able to take the position of the general, Tadashi Aoyama was unceremonious, disobedient, kill!

Anyway, now the strength of the daimyo in various places, because of the battle between Tokugawa Iemitsu and the Ming Dynasty, has been transferred, and the combat power in anyone's hands is not strong, but now the cavalry in the hands of Aoyama Tadashi is relatively intact, plus the last 10,000 elite infantry in Edo, it can be said that no daimyo has the strength to compete with Aoyama Tadashi, and more importantly, there is the support of the Ming army behind it.

Cha Xuan and Qin Mufeng stood next to Qingshan Zhongjun, and it was clear that they wanted to fully support Qingshan Zhongjun to take the position, even if they could level Qingshan Zhongjun, how to level the Ming army behind?

Above the courtyard of the shogunate, the heads of twenty daimyo are already hanging high on the flagpole, and if you don't accept it, you will end up in the same place!

Almost all the daimyo on Honshu Island were dumbfounded, and they had to bow their heads under the eaves, so admit it, there was no other way.

All the people agreed to the identity of Aoyama Tadashi as the general of the expedition, and the Aoyama shogunate was established, as for the Tokugawa family, Aoyama Tadashi was not bad, and reserved a daimyo seat for the Tokugawa family, and a large family was driven to Sado Island and became the daimyo of Sado Island, as for all the daimyo in the territory directly under the Tokugawa family, all were cleared, except for a small part that was handed over to Sakai Tadashi, and all of them were taken back from the Aoyama shogunate.

is developed, and now Aoyama Tadashi will wake up with a smile in his dreams, and in the blink of an eye, he will become the supreme ruler of Dongying, the supreme ruler! Of course, it's only the supreme ruler on the surface, but even if it's the supreme ruler on the surface, that's amazing! I don't know how much white money will fall into my pocket!

In order to thank the two overseers for their support, Aoyama Tadashi gave almost all the wealth of the Tokugawa family to the Ming army, 300,000 taels of gold and 6 million taels of silver, which is almost all the savings of the Tokugawa family for 300 years! Aoyama Tadashi is not soft, anyway, it's not his own, he is completely generous to others, and he takes the things of the Tokugawa family to give favors, can he still be unhappy?

Of course, the more wealth, the happier Cha Xuan and Qin Mufeng became, but what the two of them are now concerned about is not how much benefit they can take away from Dongying, but how to stabilize the situation in Dongying and truly control the entire Dongying, which is not what two people are good at, two people are good at fighting, but the power and strategy are far behind.

"Lao Cha, do you have any ideas?"

Qin Mufeng asked.

Cha Zhu sighed and said in a muffled voice: "I don't have any ideas, let's report to the emperor first, and ask the emperor to deal with it, we only need to complete the next military deployment in Dongying......"

Cha Xuan continued: "The matter of Kyushu Island has been decided, Nagasaki and Satsuma have our direct control, two ports, each stationed 2,000 troops, to control the situation on Kyushu Island, and there is no problem in handing over the middle position to Matsuura Zhenxin, what we need to do is to collect money from Matsuura Zhenxin every year; Shikoku Island is too small to make any sense, just keep an infantry battalion on Shikoku Island, and that's it; Next is the island of Honshu, Osaka Bay, Ise Bay, and Edo Bay, these three bays are too rich and densely populated, we must control them strongly, leave 5,000 troops in Edo Bay, and at the same time collect the remaining warships of the Satsuma Domain and the Toei fleet, and hand them over to our own people, as for Hokkaido, let's talk about it then, it would be good if we could control these three islands! ”

Qin Mufeng said with a smile: "Also, the emperor has emphasized that Dongying is rich in silver, and this Dongying silver mine must be controlled, well, I heard that it is in the southwest corner of Benzhou Island, where there is a place where the annual output of silver is extremely amazing, and the silver output of the entire Dongying is higher than that of our Daming, more than five million taels of silver per year, how much is ten years?" That's 50 million taels! I'm a good girl, think about it, it's really eye-catching! “

Cha Xuan sneered: "What are you greedy for? Isn't it all ours? Don't say that such a little bit of silver, together with gold, land, and population, the future is all Ming's! It's good to leave a soup for these widows! Okay, that's it, according to my meaning, the entire Dongying, we set up garrisons in Nagasaki, Osumi, Edo, and Osaka, however, I think there was something wrong just now, the troops are too scattered, I thought that the army was stationed in Edo Bay, 6,000 troops are enough, and the remaining three places, just keep an infantry battalion, wait for the emperor's will to come down, and the control of Dongying is on the right track, then we can withdraw to the Ming Dynasty. ”

"Well, it's decided, that, you come to write the chapter, Lao Tzu is too lazy to bother with his brains, after he writes it, just sign it for me......"

Qin Mufeng said.

"Grass, do you dare to be lazy?"
