Chen Youliang's words immediately made Xu Shuhui react.

I am still the end of the day, and I must maintain the last dignity.

"Exactly! Everything was left to General Chen. Xu Shouhui said slowly.

How to appease the generals in the rest of the places, Xu Shouhui just said a few words, but was rudely interrupted by Chen Youliang.

"Your Majesty doesn't need to say much, how to appease the generals everywhere? It's up to the ministers to decide all this, Your Majesty just stays in the palace, and I will deal with everything outside! ”

When Xu Shouhui heard this, he was stunned on the spot, and several henchmen around him were all stunned when they heard Chen Youliang's arrogant words.

Among them, Xu Shouhui's brother-in-law Wang Wenshuang immediately stood up and couldn't help but reprimand, "General Chen, isn't it too unreasonable to talk like this?" ”

Chen Youliang glanced at Wang Wen's eyes coldly, and said with a sneer, "Lord Wang, if it weren't for me, I'm afraid it would be Ni Wenjun who would be the emperor, where would you still have the right to talk here like this!" ”

Wang Wenshuang was suddenly ashamed and annoyed.

Although Ni Wenjun was a little arrogant before, in front of Emperor Xu Shouhui, he had always maintained face respect, where was it like this Chen Youliang.

Just killed Ni Wenjun, and he didn't give Wang Wenshuang, the emperor's cronies, any face.

Wang Wenshuang couldn't help but say, "Chen Youliang, I think you are the second Ni Wenjun, if you want to be so rude again, beware of Your Majesty's punishment of your crime of bullying the king!" ”

Chen Youliang smiled coldly, "Bully, hum...... Without me Chen Youliang, how can you still be a bullshit! ”

"From today onwards, no one is allowed to leave the palace for half a step, and no one is allowed to enter or leave without my permission!"

Chen You snorted coldly, left Xu Shouhui and the others, and led the soldiers to leave the palace.

Wang Wenshuang was furious and caught up and wanted to reason with Chen Youliang!

But the guards in front of the gate turned around and knocked Wang Wenshuang to the ground with a bang.

"Those who do not obey military orders, kill!" The guard said fiercely.

In the entire hall, Xu Shuhui's faces and ministers suddenly turned like earth.

They already knew clearly that Chen Youliang was much more terrifying than Ni Wenjun.

Chen Youliang took advantage of the opportunity to kill Ni Wenjun's henchmen and arrested some generals loyal to Xu Shouhui in Hanyang City.

Then these generals who beat Ni Wenjun a few days ago all gave the name of Ni Wenjun's traitorous party.

Soon, the entire city of Hanyang was controlled by Chen Youliang.

In the name of Emperor Xu Shouhui of Tianwan, Chen Youliang passed on the generals stationed in various places and asked them to come to Hanyang Chen Lai Hanyang to meet him.

The generals have long had no feelings for Xu Shouhui, the puppet emperor.

Now, if Chen Youliang has such an iron-blooded wrist, he has solved Ni Wenjun and others, and the generals from all over the country have obediently visited Chen Youliang one by one.

Of course, among these people, there is only one exception, and that is Ming Yuzhen, who has just led the army to capture Chongqing.

As a general who Ni Wenjun picked up with one hand.

Ming Yuzhen was very angry at Chen Youliang's behavior of killing the old master.

He angrily reprimanded Chen Youliang's envoy who came to deliver the message, and ordered the soldiers of the three armies to beat him out, and then set fire to the official uniforms, gold seals and other rewards sent by Chen Youliang.

Ming Yuzhen was in Chongqing for Ni Wenjun, and the whole army wore linen and filial piety for three days, and then announced that the Yangtze River waterway would be blocked and would no longer obey Chen Youliang's command.

Chongqing is located in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, the terrain is dangerous, and the waterway transportation is extremely inconvenient.

For Ming Yuzhen's blatant confrontation, no matter how angry Chen Youliang was in his heart, there was no way to attack Chongqing.

According to Chen Youliang's current troops, if he attacks Chongqing, he will not only need to use at least hundreds of thousands of civilian soldiers, but also need at least two years of grain and grass reserves.

And after Chen Youliang took control of the Tianwan regime, the first strategic target was not the little Ming Yuzhen at all, but the rich Jiangnan.

The plastered land in the south of the Yangtze River occupied by the brothers Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han has already made Chen Youliang salivate.

Ni Wenjun didn't have any eloquence before, and he had always limited his eyes to the Tianwan regime, while Chen Youliang's strategic vision was much higher.

He already had the ambition to take over the world.

If you want to seize the world, you must first seize Jiangnan, a wealthy and populous land, and then attack the Central Plains to the north.

Regarding the prosperity of Jiangnan, Chen Youliang did not have a clear understanding.

After all, he was born in poverty, and in the past few decades, he has always been confined to a hundred and ten miles of his hometown, and he has never been to a good place in the south of the Yangtze River.

However, after the capture of Jiangxi, it bordered the territory of the Zhu Yuanzhang brothers in Jiangnan, so that Chen Youliang had a clearer and more definite understanding of the wealth of Jiangnan.

Under the governance of the Tianwan Red Turban Army, many ordinary people in Jiangxi have actually been regarded as lightly paid, but there are still many people who have left one after another, fleeing their homes in Jiangxi and going to the south of the Yangtze River.

One of the important reasons is because the Zhu brothers in Jiangnan heard that they were carrying out some kind of land reform and allocating land to those landless people, and all of them were fertile land.

Not only is there less tax on these lands, but there are also many livelihoods that can be used to work in the spare time, enough to support the family.

As a result, many villages appeared in Jiangxi, and the people fled to Zhu Yuanzhang's territory.

This is due to the disparity between the rich and the poor.

Chen Youliang has sent people to send secret agents to Jiangnan many times to find out more detailed information.

In the Jinling City in the south of the Yangtze River, construction has been carried out in a big way, not only is the new Jinling City Wall being repaired, but also the Wu Wangfu inside is also a splendid construction.

Such a large-scale construction act requires a lot of manpower, material and financial resources in troubled times, and generally makes the people in the territory complain, and even breaks out into riots that are difficult to suppress.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang's territory has done so many large-scale construction projects, but he has not heard any grievances from the people, but everyone is full of praise for the newly built Jinling city wall and palace, and they all feel that this is the glory of Jiangnan people.

There is no other reason for this, it is nothing more than that the Zhu Yuanzhang brothers have a large amount of money in their hands, even if they build a large number of buildings, there is no need to levy additional taxes on ordinary people and merchants, and just relying on the reserves in their hands is enough to support such a huge project.

In this way, Chen Youliang, who has almost only less than a year's worth of food, has red eyes with jealousy.

How to take Jiangnan has become his biggest wish.

In Hanyang City, Chen Youliang's great prime minister's mansion.

Chen Youliang is discussing with Zou Pusheng, Chen Wending and other confidants how to capture Jiangnan.

For the Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han brothers in Jiangnan, almost everyone knows their names from the top and bottom of the Tianwan Red Turban Army.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han's glorious record of annihilating the million-yuan army in Yangzhou and killing the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty Tuhuan Timur made many generals of the Red Turban Army admire!

Now when they heard that Chen Youliang actually wanted to send troops to attack Zhu Yuanzhang's brothers, they were all shocked one by one.

Zou Pusheng immediately persuaded, "The handsome must think twice!" Now to start a war with the Zhu Yuanzhang brothers, I'm afraid it's not the right time! ”

"Although our army occupies Huguang and Jiangxi, but the grain and grass ordnance is still insufficient compared to the Zhu Yuanzhang brothers, if you rashly attack Jiangnan, if you succeed, you will be fine, if you fail, it will be a catastrophe!"

"According to what I saw below, it is better to accumulate strength to collect Chongqing Xichuan to the west, and then go north to Guanzhong, this is Zhuge Liang's strategy of dividing the world and seeking the world!"

Hearing Zou Pusheng's words, Chen Youliang showed a look of disdain:

"No matter how powerful Zhuge Liang is, didn't his so-called three-point world fail in the end? The surrender of the latter lord Chengdu is an example of failure, how can we learn from him again. ”

Hearing Chen Youliang's questioning, Zou Pusheng shook his head and said,

"No, no! Now in the world, the great north is in chaos, if our army stands firm in Huguangjiangxi, and then takes Chongqing to the west, Xichuan goes north to Guanzhong, and in the Central Plains, it can be said that it will not be effortless, far from the situation when Cao Wei unified the Central Plains, Zhuge Liang has the power of the gods and is difficult to save! ”

"It's really not worth taking the risk for a Jiangnan now."

Zou Pusheng's words immediately won the support of the other generals of the Tianwan Red Turban Army.

They already respected and feared the famous Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han brothers, not to mention that they had traveled thousands of miles to fight on other people's territory.

"Prime Minister, I've heard about it...... That Zhu Han is a martial artist in the sky, and his strength is enough to weigh a thousand catties, and he went down with one punch, killing hundreds or thousands of people in the cowardly Xue army of the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty! Zhu Longxing, who is so terrifying, if we are not completely sure, we can't take risks! ”

General Chen Wending said.

Chen Youliang scoffed at this remark:

"What kind of strength has a thousand jun, what kills hundreds of cowardly Xue Jun! It's just nonsense! ”

For example, in today's Red Turban military regime, many storytelling and miscellaneous dramas have begun to circulate, many of which have been circulated from Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces.

In addition to Bao Gongyu and Di Renjie, who are popular among the people, the most popular is to tell the story of Zhu Longxing's rescue of the suffering.

Not only is there a white-haired female legend, but also what Zhu Longxing Hongze Lake killed the Tartar Emperor, and a silver spear in Yangzhou City killed a million-yuan army, etc.

All kinds of outrageous miscellaneous drama commentaries have long been circulated in the Hanyang Huguang area.

Chen Youliang is simply willing to listen to these family words.

However, many shallow Tianwan Red Turban Army officers and soldiers, as well as a large number of ordinary people, are tired of these things, and even many people really take the content of the drama as true, they feel that Zhu Longxing, that is, Zhu Yuanzhang is really the star in the sky, and he wants to lead the Han people in the world to expel the Tartars and restore the heroes of the Han family.

Chen You was so angry that he wanted to order a ban on the spread of these absurd miscellaneous tricks among the people.

Now, when he heard his generals commenting on Zhu Longxing's miscellaneous plays, he was even more angry.

Chen Youliang was even more annoyed in his heart.

"Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han's brothers, they are just beggars and monks, they have already occupied the geographical advantage, close to Jiangnan, if we also raise troops in the Huaixi area, maybe the one who occupies Jiangnan now is us."

"In terms of this combat ability, we may not be worse than their brothers!"

Chen Youliang's words can be described as full of ambition, everyone knows that Chen Youliang's temperament is very stubborn, since the matter has been decided, Zou Pusheng, Chen Wending and others also feel that they can't be persuaded to come back, so they can only obediently follow Chen Youliang's instructions and start to make suggestions.

"If you want to capture Jiangnan, you must send troops from Jiangxi along the Yangtze River waterway."

"The Yangtze River waterway leads to the south of the Yangtze River, and there are a few places that need important nodes!"

"They are Anqing, Chizhou, Taiping and other places, and then there is the quarrying outside Jinling Mansion, as long as this place along the river is captured, you can maintain an unimpeded Yangtze River communication line, so that a steady stream of soldiers and horses and grain and grass can support the soldiers in front."

Soon, Chen Youliang and others formulated a plan to capture Chizhou, Anqing, Taiping, these key points of the Yangtze River.

However, in order to capture these heavily fortified areas, it is necessary to first explore the local military deployment.

Of course, it is not possible to investigate openly.

Chen Youliang personally wrote a book and sent it to Zhu Yuanzhang in Jiangnan.

In the letter, Chen Youliang called Zhu Yuanzhang a brother in a very cordial tone, and then explained that the two Red Turban armies unanimously crusaded against the Mongols of the Yuan Dynasty, expelled the Tartars, and restored China's wishes.

In fact, the so-called businessman is naturally a secret agent sent by Chen Youliang.

They have a large number of special products in Huguang, especially the tung oil, copper ore, tin ore and so on produced by Hu Guang, all of which are very sought-after commodities in Jiangnan recently.

At the time of receiving Chen Youliang's letter, Zhu Han was leading an army to attack Quanzhou.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately gave the same enthusiastic reply to Chen Youliang's letter.

The two sides agreed to live in peace on the border, and Zhu Yuanzhang greatly agreed with Huguang's idea of doing business.

After all, Jiangnan's financial income can be described as very rich now, one of the most important reasons is that Jiangnan's commercial tax has made Zhu Yuanzhang collect a lot of money, just one Suzhou has been worth a year's agricultural tax in Jiangbei Province, plus Jinling, Hangzhou, Mingzhou and other places.

That made Zhu Yuanzhang even more in his hands, and he didn't know how to spend the money.

The land tax in Jiangnan has been reduced again and again, in order to encourage the local people to grow more grain and restore people's livelihood as soon as possible.

Although the local trade in the south of the Yangtze River is prosperous, many minerals and other materials are extremely lacking, especially a large number of copper ore, tin ore and other mines, as well as a large number of tung oil.

All of them are a large number of consumables for today's military industrial weapons.

In just one month.

The caravans that came to Jiangnan from Huguang had reached as many as fifty or sixty.

These caravans brought copper, tin, and tung oil, which were urgently needed in Jiangnan...... and other materials, which made Zhu Yuanzhang feel very satisfied.

At this time, Zhu Han also led the naval army back to Jinling from Quanzhou.

After returning to Jinling, Zhu Han did not go back to his mansion first, but came directly to King Wu's mansion and met his elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang.

Seeing Zhu Han coming back, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately smiled and said, "The battle in Quanzhou can be described as hearty, and we are still worried about letting those people run away, but I didn't expect that none of them would be slaughtered." ”

Zhu Han smiled and said, "Actually, I didn't kill them all, I left some useful ones for use as guides in the West." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "It's also the same reason, since the Hui people can come, we do business in the Central Plains, we have to leave some guides, we have to find an opportunity to go to their old home in the future to take a look, and take revenge on their sins in Fujian, otherwise we are really sorry for the people of our Central Plains!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han brothers have been together for so many years.

Under the influence of Zhu Han's strong nationalist thoughts, the elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang naturally has many national thoughts, and Zhu Yuanzhang is no longer the kind of thinking of modern ancient people about the distinction between north and south, he feels that whether it is Liangguang, Fujian or the Han people in the north, they are all one family.

Therefore, the people of Fujian suffered the massacre of the colored-eyed people, and Zhu Yuanzhang also felt the same feeling in his heart, which is the resonance that nationalism will bring, and the national feelings are common, from this article alone, even if there is no Zhu Hanfuzuo in the future, the dynasty established by Zhu Yuanzhang will be very different from the Ming Dynasty in history.

"I have sent Hu Dahai to preside over Quanzhou, restore local trade, and set up a team, the Semu people have left a lot of charts and logbooks, according to their tracks, to explore the route to the South Seas, where there are hidden mountains of gold and silver, those charts and logbooks are sorted out, and immediately send people to the West to explore the way!" Zhu Han said.

"Okay, it's good to go to the West!"

Zhu Yuanzhang now has great expectations for sea trade.

Jiangnan is now so prosperous precisely because of its thriving trade.

The commerce and trade in Suzhou, Jinling, Hangzhou, and Mingzhou made Zhu Yuanzhang not need to worry about the military salaries of officials and soldiers, nor did he need to brutally oppress the people under his rule, so that he gained a good reputation.

Vigorously developing commerce and trade has been an excellent means for Lao Zhu to govern the country.

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately thought of the matter of Chen Youliang sending someone to ask for trade.

When Zhu Han heard that Chen Youliang had sent fifty or sixty waves of caravans within a month, he immediately realized the problem.

He said to his elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang, "Brother, Chen Youliang is not simple!" To put it mildly, he is a heroic figure, and to put it mildly...... is also a person with a heart for the world, he will definitely not be satisfied with occupying a Huguang and Jiangxi, these caravans, I think the real purpose is to explore our military deployment, maybe Chen Youliang has already started a whole military war, and wants to attack our Jiangnan! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little surprised by Zhu Han's words.

"I heard that Chen Youliang killed the Tartars, and he was also a man without blinking, and now that the Tartars have not been destroyed, Chen Youliang should not do this."

Zhu Han shook his head and said, "What to do or not to do, that's another matter, if Chen Youliang really has the heart of ambition, he will definitely not talk about any feelings." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang agreed with this sentence, he nodded and said:

"That's true, I heard that Ni Wenjun is Chen Youliang's benefactor, although he rebelled and wanted to kill Xu Shouhui, he was beheaded by Chen Youliang to show the public, and he was killed, which is really despicable."

"Therefore, Chen Youliang has to be on guard, but he sent someone to inquire about the news in the name of the merchant, which means that he is still very jealous of us, according to my speculation...... Huguang Jiangxi has been in turmoil, there should not be much grain and grass reserves, Chen Youliang can't enter the army for a while, at most he is here to find out the news, if he really wants to do it, I'm afraid he will have to wait a few days. Zhu Han said.

Zhu Yuanzhang also nodded when he heard this, and said, "Since Chen Youliang has bad intentions and came to inquire about our news, then we can't be idle." ”

Zhu Han nodded and said: "That's right, our Sihai Trading Company has found a lot of information in Dadu, and we will immediately open a few more businesses in the Huguang area to find out the news of Chen Youliang." ”

After all, Chen Youliang is such a ruthless person, so he has to guard against it!

Speaking of this Sihai Trading Company, Zhu Yuanzhang talked to Zhu Han about another problem!

That is, there is a large amount of money shortage in Jiangnan now.

That's right, it's the money shortage.

Today, Jiangnan is thriving, and even grew much more than during the reign of Meng Yuan.

After all, according to Zhu Han's suggestion, Zhu Yuanzhang canceled many checkpoints and miscellaneous taxes in Jiangnan, and strictly forbade officials and armies at all levels to exploit merchants and only collect a unified fixed tax.

In this way, commerce and trade naturally prospered, and the taxes levied on the people were also very low, many people had surplus grain in their hands, and with surplus grain they could sell it for money, and with spare money, they could buy more necessities for their families.

Naturally, commerce and trade flourished.

However, the coins that originally circulated in the Jiangnan market gradually began to lack and insufficient, and the copper coins minted in the Mengyuan Dynasty can be said to be very few.

Because Mengyuan has always used paper money.

After all, as long as paper money needs to be printed, you can use a blank piece of paper to cover a large number of goods of the same price.

After several rounds of currency reforms, the banknotes of the Yuan Dynasty have long been as worthless as butt paper.

The indiscriminate issuance of paper money is actually a tricky robbery of the people.

A worthless blank piece of paper, with a few words written on it, can buy the merchant's goods.

And when the merchants took the paper money and went to buy things at their own expense, they could only buy goods at a discount of one or two percent, and countless merchants went bankrupt because of this, and all of a sudden, all industries withered.

In this day and age, only metal money can circulate stably.

"But if you want to mint copper coins, it's still a little inappropriate...... Nowadays, the value of many commodities is mostly large, and the value of copper coins is too cheap, and it is very inconvenient to carry a large number of copper coins to trade with chariots and horses, and it is also an important material for us to cast artillery, if it is used to cast coins in large quantities, then our copper will not be enough. Zhu Han said.

Today, the Red Turban Army's artillery of all sizes has achieved a very mature manufacturing process.

In addition to the state, Jinling, and Suzhou, the major artillery workshops are all producing artillery at full capacity, but it is still difficult to meet the needs of hundreds of thousands of troops and navies.

It's not that their craftsmen are not skilled, it's that raw materials are often lacking.

Copper ore is very scarce in the south of the Yangtze River, there is no copper ore in the first place, all need to be transferred from other places, the field is now in chaos, the trade route is cut off, and the difficulty of transferring copper ore from other places can be imagined.

In order to build artillery, the bronze Buddha statues and bells in many temples were confiscated by Zhu Han's order!

Melt and cast into artillery.

After all, in the era of war and chaos, these bronze Buddhas and bronze Arhats can't protect themselves, only with copper cannons in hand, can they shelter the world!

"What do you say about seventy-five?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"Something else, of course." Zhu Han said.

Zhu Yuanzhang was puzzled and asked, "What to replace copper coins?" Is it gold and silver? We are even more lacking in gold and silver! ”

The value and acceptance of gold and silver are, of course, higher than that of copper coins, and even used in maritime trade settlements.

However, it is difficult to earn a lot of silver and gold coins in the business of going to the South Seas.

Because of the very long-distance sea trade, it is often bartered.

Neither side carries too many gold or silver coins.

The Central Plains has always lacked gold and silver mines, and even if there are many super-large gold and silver mines in later generations, it is very difficult to mine them with today's technology.

"We lack gold and silver here, and the war is chaotic, even if there is a gold mine, the silver mine is not convenient to mine, but there is a place where there is a large amount of gold and silver, and it is also very easy to mine, and even dig a pit in the ground, dig a few dozen feet, you can dig out a piece of silver mine, and dig out a piece of silver mine." Zhu Han said.

"Oh, where is such a nice place?" Zhu Yuanzhang immediately asked.

Zhu Han pointed to a map behind his elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang with his hand, "Not far away, it's on Wa Island to the east of the sea." ”

"Wajima?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the map.

This map was drawn by Zhu Han himself, but it only marked the Central Plains, the Goryeo Peninsula, and Wajima.

"There are really silver mines on the Wa Island, which is thousands of miles away?" Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't believe it.

Because he also has some impressions of Wajima.

I heard that on the island, the land is barren, there are many volcanoes, and there are often disasters such as earthquakes, and the people on it are short and savage, and they often go to the sea to be Japanese robbers, plundering the coasts of Goryeo and Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

For the place of Wadao, Zhu Yuanzhang did not have a good impression.

If it weren't for the poor mountains and bad waters, how could the people come out to be a wolf.

If there are really mountains of gold and silver on it, do you still need to come out to be a widow?

"There are really a lot of gold and silver mines on Wajima, brother, don't you know, in the logbook of the Semu people I seized in Quanzhou this time, they found a huge silver mine on Wajima, and this place in Iwami is also called Iwami Silver Mine, but the local Wa people are in civil strife, and there is no technology to mine, which has made such a precious place flow until now."

Iwami Silver Mountain, this is a very famous super silver mine in history.

Historically, in the middle and early Ming Dynasty, nearly half of the silver flowed from the Iwami Silver Mountain, and such a super large silver mine was opened until the middle and late Edo shogunate period, and then gradually dried up.

It is conceivable how huge the reserves of this silver mine are, and the actual mining of silver ore is not very difficult, it may be a little difficult for the people on the island, but for Huaxia, who has mastered various silver mining techniques, it is simply a piece of cake.

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang heard that there was such a big super silver mine, his eyes immediately lit up, he grabbed Zhu Han and said, "There is really such a good place, then let's go and kill him!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's words made Zhu Han couldn't help laughing.

According to the judging standards of ancient Confucian scholars, they have a saying that if you do a good job, you will die.

But today's brothers Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang are indeed proper militants, because all their battles are all profitable and unloseable.

Therefore, now the elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang hears that there is a war to be fought.

Immediately, it was as if I saw an opportunity to make a fortune.

In particular, this time to rob such a large silver mine, it is really this happy bubbling.

As long as there are such abundant silver mines, you can mint your own silver coins, and once the silver coins are circulated in the prosperous commercial place of Jiangnan, it will stimulate more prosperous commerce, and the more taxes will be collected by the prosperity of commerce.

"Okay, since we want to fight the Japanese country, then we will do what we say, and while there is no war around now, we will knock down the silver mines of the Japanese country first!"

"It's just that what is the situation on Wajima now, we are black-eyed!"

Zhu Han didn't know about this problem, he only knew that the current Wajima was in the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties in history, with an old emperor in the south and a puppet emperor supported by several shogunes in the north.

The two sides were divided into two sides, and the north and south continued to fight.

Among them, how to snatch the most suitable entry point for the Ishimi silver mine, Zhu Han did not know.

However, Zhu Han remembered that he had captured a group of Japanese pirates when he was in Goryeo.

Among them, there is a Wako named Hojo Yoshimasa, who should be familiar with the situation in the Wakoku country.

"Yoshima Hojo."

"It's simple, do it for me, brother!"

"I'll go find a few pirates and let them investigate."

……………

Zhenjiang.

The water barracks of the Zhenjiang Red Turban Army is a bustling commercial street outside.

In fact, this is a deserted field, there is no prosperity at all, and there are even very few farmers and fishermen who farm.

However, since the construction of the Red Turban Army and Navy Base here, a large number of people have come here to carry their own snacks and drinks and sell them here.

In just a few months, it has turned this place into a very prosperous commercial gathering place.

All kinds of Jiangnan snacks, such as dumplings stuffed with rice wine, and osmanthus cakes, are all wafting their own fragrances on the street, and today, the stalls of the vendors still exude an attractive atmosphere.

Yoshima Hojo sits in front of a small wonton stall.

Holding a bowl of bone broth wontons boiled with shrimp skin and winter bamboo shoots, I enjoyed the food in a big gulp.

"The Reborn Financial Giant"

After eating this bowl of wontons, he put down a few copper coins, and then continued to walk forward, and saw a stall selling osmanthus cakes, and bought a few pieces of flower cakes for a few pennies to eat.

A few pieces of osmanthus cake, eating happily.

While eating, he admired the customs of this town.

Hojo Yoshishin was instantly filled with a sense of pride.

Since being captured by the Red Turban Army, Hojo Yoshizane, these Japanese robbers, have first been transformed, and they have been incorporated into the ranks of the Zhenjiang Water Army, as the daily sparring object of the Zhenjiang Water Army, that is, they are playing the enemy army to help train the Red Turban Army Water Army.

Acting as an imaginary enemy in gang jumping battles and sailing training is a beating job, but Hojo Yoshima has a lot of fun.

If you want to talk about the reason, the biggest reason is that the food in the Red Turban Army is so good!

The food among the sailors is the best, which simply makes the Japanese people happy.

When Hojo Yoshima was a noble son when he was a child, he was not able to eat fish and meat every day, but at the level of the Red Turban Army, he could eat eggs, fish or meat almost every day.

And the food is so delicious.

After three months of examination, Hojo Yoshima was judged to be a superior performer and qualified as an auxiliary.

With the qualification of auxiliaries, there is freedom of movement and military pay.

With these military salaries, Hojo Yoshima was attracted by the wealth and prosperity of Jiangnan.

Hojo Yoshima, now regrets every day, hating that he was not born in China, and deeply thinks that he was born in Wajima and has low self-esteem.

The status of the Japanese in the Red Turban Army is naturally very low, but walking on the streets of Zhenjiang, the people do not know whether he is a Japanese or a Han, as long as they see the red scarf military uniform on his body, they will respect him.

He didn't think about restoring the foundation of the Hojo family.

What is the use of restoring the Hojo family?

After recovery, he may not be able to live a good life of eating wine and drinking meat every day.

It is nothing more than rice with dried radish, and dried radish with rice.

He didn't feel any happiness in those days.

When he returned to the barracks, he was suddenly approached by the camp manager of the naval barracks.

"Xu Yizhen!"

Hearing someone call him, Hojo Yoshima immediately responded.

Xu Yizhen is his Chinese name.

According to the military regulations formulated by Zhu Han, all Fanbang barbarians who joined the Red Turban Army were not allowed to use their original surnames, and they must take a Han surname, otherwise they would be cleared.

This, of course, is to assimilate them.

Therefore, before Hojo Yoshishin gave himself a new Han surname, he heard a lot about Xu Fuku's eastward crossing, and only then did he have the legend of the residents of Wajima.

So Hojo Yoshishin gave himself the surname Xu.

It means that he is a descendant of Xu Fu Dongdu back then, and he is also a member of Huaxia and has the blood of the Han people.

Of course, as for whether he really has Han blood, then you have to ask his ancestors.

"Xu Yizhen, the deputy marshal is here, I want to see you by name!" Guan Yinghu said.

Hearing this deputy handsome, Hojo Yoshishin didn't react for a moment, and was stunned for a moment.

"Hurry up and follow me."

The Navy Commander said.

Hojo only reacted at this time for a while, who is the deputy marshal, it is naturally Zhu Han, the master of Pingzhang in Jiangnan.

For the deputy marshal Zhu Han who beat himself like a son in the naval battle, Hojo Yoshima has a heartfelt awe.

After entering the barracks, as soon as he saw Hojo Yoshima, Zhu Han frowned.

Hojo Yoshima, who was dressed in a Han robe, didn't look like a widow no matter how he looked at it.

He said to Guan Yinghu Guan, "This person is Hojo Yoshima? ”

Hu Guanzhu immediately saluted and said to Zhu Han, "Deputy Marshal Qiyu, that's right, this person is that Hojo Yoshima." ”

Hojo Yoshizane hurriedly knelt on the ground and saluted, "Subordinate Xu Yizhen, meet the deputy marshal!" ”

"Xu Yizhen, this name is good, get up." Zhu Han said.

"Thank you, Lieutenant!"

Hojo Yoshima hurriedly got up.

He was wearing a cyan Confucian robe, which was the latest model to be circulated from Jinling.

The length and size have been improved, and it looks more heroic, which is in line with the image of Jiangnan Neo-Confucianism today.

Zhu Han nodded with satisfaction, "I heard that you have been doing well recently. ”

Hojo Yoshizane hurriedly said, "Deputy Marshal Qiyu, my subordinates now regret their original sins every day, and they regret it!" ”

Hojo even shed tears of remorse as he spoke.

Zhu Han originally thought that he was pretending, but after some careful inspection, he found that this Hojo Yoshima turned out to be remorse from the bottom of his heart.

Hojo Yoshizane repeatedly said that he felt that he was not born as a Han and felt deeply inferior, but this emotion made Zhu Han feel very interesting, which shows that Hojo Yoshima completely succumbed psychologically.

Zhu Han smiled and said to Hojo Yoshima:

"Hojo Yoshima, do you want your hometown?"

Hojo Yoshima shook his head and said: "My hometown will be Zhenjiang from now on, my surname is Xu, not Hojo!" ”

When Zhu Han heard this, he almost fucking laughed.

He wants these Japanese to be the leading party, and go back to Wajima to snatch Iwami Ginzan!

But there is no plan to let these few widows stay here in Zhenjiang as some kind of 'descendants of the spirit of Yan Huang'.

Zhu Han said, "We in China pay attention to loyalty and filial piety, and your Hojo family is also a famous family in Wajima, so if you abandon your family and abandon your family and business, it is against filial piety and not in line with my Central Plains loyalty and filial piety!" ”

Hojo Yoshizane said very seriously, "Vice Marshal, I am already convinced that our Hojo family must be the 500 boys and girls who followed Xu Fu Dongdu when Qin Shi Huang was in the past, otherwise I would not have felt so cordial as soon as I came to Jiangnan, this is because my blood is the blood of China!" ”

Hojo Yoshima looked serious.

is already convinced of his identity as a descendant of Huaxia, if anyone dares to question it, I am afraid that he will pull out his knife and fight with that person.

For this 'spiritual Han man', Zhu Han felt very relieved.

"Hojo Yoshima, your loyalty! Big! Very good! ”

"Now there's a mission that you need to contribute!"

"Deputy Marshal, no matter what the task, go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire, I, Xu Yizhen, will never shirk!" Hojo Yoshima said very seriously.

Zhu Han nodded slightly, and then said to Hojo Yoshima, "I plan to let you take a group of people back to the Wa Kingdom and find out the way forward for us." ”

"I'm going to set up a base on the island, right on the rocky mountain, and in order to prevent the war from causing the local people to flee in large numbers, you must come up with a charter." Zhu Han said.

Zhu Han and his elder brother Zhu Yuanzhang are sure of victory in the capture of Iwami Silver Mountain.

After all, the combat effectiveness of the small princes on the island is worrying, and the soldiers and horses are also seriously insufficient, and only one or two hundred thousand people need to be mobilized to defeat them in one battle.

However, mining silver ore requires a lot of manpower, and the state of war is too long, or without the assistance of the local Japanese lords, it will be difficult to gather enough people to mine silver mines, and seeing a large silver mine in front of him without manpower to mine is the most uncomfortable, so Zhu Han asked Hojo to return to the hometown with a group of Japanese invaders, after defeating the Iwami feudal lord, how can he quickly and effectively establish a puppet regime, and leave all the surrounding Japanese people to mine silver mines.

Hearing Zhu Han's words, Hojo Yoshima's face suddenly darkened when he started, he thought

Zhu Han is planning to drive back to the Wa Kingdom.

He immediately fell to his knees with a thud and begged Zhu Hanken, "Deputy Marshal, give me a chance, I can do better, don't drive me to Wadao, I am a Han, I want to be a Han!" ”
