Ashikaga Yoshisai looked at everyone with vigor, with a bit of solemnity on his face, and said: "In view of the crime of hiding the Japanese Kou, the Zhenguo Government will require the Japanese to pay a fine, the amount of five million taels of gold and silver, which is a huge number, it can be said that in view of our harm to the Ming Dynasty, this general does not think that there is anything wrong with this, but it is just necessary to raise so much gold and silver, except for the Ouchi family and the Takeda family because of the fornication of the Japanese Kou, and confiscate their land and gold and silver, everyone still needs to raise together, and the shogunate will take out 200,000 taels of silver first." , and two thousand pounds of gold. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

It is also strange to say that the Wa Kingdom lacks everything, but it is the only one who does not lack gold and silver.

There are almost thirty percent of the world's gold and silver mines here, so in the Wa Kingdom, the value of gold and silver is not high, and the 200,000 silver and 2,000 catties of gold that Ashikaga Yoshisai took out first are definitely a large amount, but he is not leading by example, but the shogunate has been controlled by Ouchi Yoshiko before, so these gold and silver, if you really want to count, can be said to be owned by the Ouchi family.

Now Ashikaga Yoshifumi has made this promise, which can be regarded as a gift of flowers to the Buddha, which not only shows his loyalty to the town government, but also sets an example.

But the daimyo were in an uproar, this was clearly a robbery, and the people who were still expressionless had already shown indignation.

Ashikaga Yoshisai just glanced at them lightly, and then said: "This is the decision of the Shogun, please pay it enthusiastically at that time, if there is a shortcoming, the shogunate will regard him as an accomplice to the Japanese Kou, and Takeda and Ouchi are role models." ”

Many people listened to it, but Ashikaga Yoshifumi's words were like dropping a bomb on them, and everyone's faces suddenly turned to ashes, but they couldn't make a sound.

If this is the case, it is equivalent to a Japanese coward, not only by the shogunate, but also by the Ming fleet, such a result is absolutely unacceptable.

At this time, Ashikaga Yoshifumi continued: "In addition, for the sake of good-neighborliness and friendship, the town government and the country will conduct a long-term trade, and the country should welcome the town government to operate here, and in view of the Takeda family's fornication with the Japanese country, the shogun will take back his domain and take this land as a gift from his country to the town government......"

Trade...... Whether it's good or bad, many people don't know, but the gift of land is nothing more than cutting the land, fortunately, this doesn't seem to be a big deal for the feudal clans, in this era, the Wa country is not a monolith, the big names, the feudal towns they belong to are the country within the country, but now they have to pinch their noses and recognize a new neighbor.

For Ashikaga Yoshisai, this did not seem to be a very bad result, as long as the Jinkoku government did not have the ambition to annex the Wakoku Kingdom, he was even happy to cede the speed wave to the Jinkokufu, so that the Jinkoku Mansion had a foothold in the Wakoku Province as a force to support him, which was conducive to strengthening the rule of the shogunate.

The reason why Ashikaga Yoshisai is willing to rest assured, it is not that he is naïve and romantic, this is really inseparable from the virtue and politics of the foreign domain in the Ming Dynasty for several years, the Ming Dynasty dealt with the vassal states, and never showed the ambition to occupy the territory, even when the Great Central Plains Dynasty was strong, but it still retained Goryeo and Korea as vassals, only this, Ashikaga Yoshisai has trust in the town of the country.

The minds of the daimyo are complicated, and the latter two conditions have little to do with them, but the first condition makes them embarrassed, but what the general said should be the meaning of the town and country, which must be acceptable.

But what can be done?

Are you really not afraid of becoming the second Takeda family?

After receiving the etiquette of the daimyos, Ashikaga Yoshisai set off for the harbor and boarded the Qinhuang to meet Ye Chunqiu.

When Ashikaga Yoshifumi arrived at the Qinhuang, Ye Chunqiu was sitting in the cabin drinking tea, and Ashikaga Yoshisai came to him and respectfully told him what had happened.

Ye Chunqiu smiled and said: "Sure enough, with the help of the general, things will be much easier, since the general has complied with our agreement, then the Zhenguo Mansion will also keep its promise, from now on, anyone who provokes the shogunate will provoke the Zhenguo Mansion, please rest assured." ”

Ashikaga Yoshisai thought in his heart that this time he summoned the daimyo and looted their gold and silver, and many daimyo dared not speak out, and from then on, once they were out of the protection of the Zhenguo Government, they were afraid that the shogun would inevitably suffer retaliation, and in the future, the shogunate of the Ashikaga family would need to be protected by the Zhenguo Government for eternity.

So he seemed very sincere and said: "It is infinitely happy to be able to serve the Zhenguo Gong." ”

Ye Chunqiu invited him to tea, and Ashikaga Yoshisai said: "The land of the Sulang Domain will be owned by the Zhenguo Gong from now on, does the Zhenguo Gong have any plans?" How many ships and soldiers are you going to station? ”

Ye Chunqiu took a sip of tea and said: "This is not in a hurry, this time it is indeed to suppress the thief, so it is a little hasty, and there are not many attachés, but even so, the route between Japan and Qinhuangdao can be opened first, and the fleet may have to be delayed here for some days, but after some time, I will make the trip, after all, this is a foreign country, and now the fleet has been away from Daming for too long, and there is still a need to go back to deal with some things." ”

Hearing Ye Chunqiu say that he would go back first, Ashikaga Yoshifumi guessed that other things must have been planned to be handed over to others to do it.

At this time, Ashikaga Yoshisai smiled bitterly: "Actually...... If it weren't for the fact that Zhenguo Gong came here, the Ashikaga family would be finished, and Zhenguo Gong would know that there would be a scuffle within the Wa Kingdom originally? But now, the situation may be calming down, so although Zhen Guogong and I used to be enemies, but for me, the appearance of Zhen Guogong has saved many people. ”

"Really?" Ye Chunqiu stared at Ashikaga Yoshisai, and suddenly found that the shogunate general was not as simple as he imagined, he obviously had a clear understanding of the current situation, and probably felt that the Warring States era of the Wa Kingdom was coming, and because of this, he knew that his strength was shallow, and the shogunate could no longer be maintained, so he would be interested in being a puppet.

It is actually rare for a person to be able to understand current affairs, after all, there are many people in this world who don't know what to do.

Ye Chunqiu stood up and said with a light smile: "Actually, there is still a busy, and I still need to worry about the general." ”

Ashikaga Yoshisai hurriedly said: "Zhenguo Gong has a life, and Yoshisai naturally goes all out." He meekly continued to add: "It's okay for the Duke of Zhenguo to treat me as a retainer, in fact, there is no need to be so polite, although I am a general of Zhengyi, I actually know my situation very well." ”

"Yes." Ye Chunqiu didn't know what kind of expression to give him, so he had to say, "That's great." ”
