Although Goryeo is now a de facto Ming province, and Hua Yunlong's monopoly on the power of King Gongchou is a puppet, it has not been officially announced after all.

Nominally, Goryeo was still ruled by King Gongcho, and Goryeo was only a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty.

Although it is a matter of time before Goryeo becomes the province of Daming, at least for now, it is still necessary to give King Gongchou a little face, treat him as the lord of a country, and do enough work on the surface.

Hua Yunlong has been promoting Confucian education in Goryeo for some time, and now that the Ming prince has helped them recover the most important Tsushima Island, the people of Goryeo will have a greater sense of identification with the Ming Dynasty.

When the time is ripe to announce, the people will be more receptive in their hearts and will not breed too strong a rebellious mentality.

This kind of thing can't be rushed, and at the same time, there is no need to rush.

It is estimated that in two or three years, when the Ming soldiers and Goryeo women give birth to a group of children of Han blood, it can be announced.

And in order to express his gratitude to the Ming Dynasty for helping them regain their lost territory, King Gongchou must also express his gratitude.

For example, contribute some gold and silver, or promise other things that are conducive to promoting the culture of the Central Plains.

……

Soon, the Ming warship will be able to see Tsushima Island.

"Drop anchor, stop the ship!" Ten miles away from Tsushima Island, Zhu Di issued a military order!

Then the warships collectively bombarded Tsushima Island in front.

After a burst of heavy artillery bombardment, the Japanese fortifications on Tsushima Island were completely destroyed. The sergeants stationed in the Wa State symbolically fired a few cannons, but all of them fell into the sea, and the range of the Wa national artillery was less than half the range of the Shenji cannon.

It is even less powerful than it is.

Compared with the two, it is the crushing of backwardness by civilization.

When Xie Cheng saw that Tsushima Island had been taken, he ordered two warships to dock, and the sergeants went up to clean up the battlefield and the remnants of the Japanese on it.

"His Royal Highness King Yan, the range of our cannon is actually ten miles away?" Hu Weiyong said in shock.

"yes." Zhu Di said.

"Then Your Highness just now, why did you wait for the warships of the Japanese Kingdom to be so close to fight?" Xie Cheng asked puzzledly, "Some of our warships have been damaged to varying degrees. ”

"The king is afraid that they will run away when they see that the situation is not good." Zhu Di said.

"After all, we are fighting on the Japanese mainland, if we let go of some of their ships. In the future, transportation and supplies in this sea area will be harassed by their warships, and they will not tire of it. ”

"Although their artillery fire is far inferior to ours, it is easy to dodge open guns and difficult to defend against hidden arrows. Moreover, the Wa Guohai is still a sea area that they are familiar with, and the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake. No matter how advanced our firearms are, we are afraid that they will come to a sneak attack from time to time. ”

"It's not that advanced weapons make us invincible, we also have to avoid losses as much as possible."

"So all their warships must be completely destroyed in order to be done once and for all, and from now on they can rest easy."

"Now that the king has paid a very small price, he has completely annihilated the warships of the Japanese kingdom, eliminating all future troubles, which is cost-effective."

"Your Highness is wise!" Xie Chengdao.

"Set sail and go to Fukuoka to land on the land of the Japanese country." Zhu Di said, "Our follow-up elites, Long Xiangwei, Ying Yangwei, Leopard Taowei, Flying Bear Guard...... Will take a warship to keep up. It is estimated that in a few days, 50,000 Ming elites will be able to descend from the sky and appear on the territory of the Japanese country. ”

"Your Highness." Hu Weiyong said, "The Japanese Kingdom is a 'country' that stands side by side, and there are large and small family forces everywhere on the land. They all had their own retainers and a well-kept samurai. Therefore, even if we defeat Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's Kamakura shogunate, the other 'kingdoms' will not necessarily submit. When the time comes, we will have to divide our troops and attack and defeat all the feudal lords. ”

"To put it simply, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu is only the leader of the alliance of the princes of the Wa Kingdom, just like Yuan Shao is the leader of the alliance of the princes of the Eighteen Towns against Dong. Only the Alliance Leader has been defeated, and the other princes will still rebel against us. ”

"It is precisely because I know that there is such a situation in the Japanese country that my father sent me 50,000 elites." Zhu Di said, "After we landed in the Japanese Kingdom, there are still many large and small battles to be fought. ”

"The emperor is far-sighted and wise!" The crowd said.

"But there should be few big battles, but there are many small battles." Hu Weiyong said, "After all, the 'countries' of the Japanese Kingdom are relatively small, and the smallest one dares to claim to be a country when it is entrenched in a village. Medium-sized, is a county territory, and most of them are of this kind. The larger one is to occupy an island, the area of which is equivalent to a state capital of the Ming Dynasty. ”

"Although the scale is not very large, there are too many feudal lords, and it is very troublesome to exterminate them one by one."

"Fighting on the territory of other countries, what I am most afraid of is that I am not familiar with the place, and the Japanese military and people will secretly attack from time to time." Xie Chengdao, "Although our firearms are much more advanced than theirs, we can't afford to consume them like this." ”

"Therefore, we must also raise the banner of justice." Hu Weiyong said.

"What kind of flag?" Zhu Di asked.

"For example, we can declare that Ashikaga Yoshimitsu is not in the right position, and the Ming Dynasty is here to help Ikkyu Sojun restore the throne." Hu Weiyong said, "To conquer any piece of land, it is the most stupid thing to use force alone, and it must be combined with force and strategy." ”

"Not bad." Zhu Di said.

"I don't understand these things." Xie Chengdao.

"In addition, we can also claim that the Japanese people were originally brought by Xu Fu, the descendants of three thousand boys and girls. They are also descendants of China, and the Ming Dynasty is here to let you recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors. Hu Weiyong said.

"Uh-huh." Zhu Di nodded, "This plan is very good." ”

"Since we're here to make them recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors, shouldn't we go on a killing spree?" Xie Chengdao.

"It depends." Zhu Di thought for a moment and said, "According to historical records, Xu Fu led three thousand boys and girls to the island during the Yayoi era. However, at that time, there were already many original inhabitants in the Japanese country. ”

"At that time, they had no writing, no farming, and they were still living a life of slash-and-burn farming. It was Xu Fu who taught them medical techniques, Xu Fu was a Taoist and a healer, farming techniques and writing. In their eyes, Xu Fu is the 'god of agriculture' and 'the god of medicine'"

"In other words, only some of the current Japanese people are the descendants of 3,000 boys and girls, and some are the descendants of primitive people."

"In this way, if anyone who admits that they are the descendants of Xu Fu, we will give them money and food. For those who do not admit it, be strict with them. ”

"Your Highness, this idea is so good!" When Hu Weiyong heard this, he couldn't help but clap his hands and exclaim, "In this way, you can divide them." Let those who admit it internally fight with those who don't. ”
