After reading it, King Yan handed it to Hu Weiyong.

"I didn't expect Ashikaga Yoshimitsu to have the courage to actually issue a general's order, calling on the feudal lords of all parts of the country to unite against my Daming." Hu Weiyong said, "But it's futile for him to do this." ”

"First, the former feudal lords of various places did not follow the orders of the Kamakura shogunate very much."

"Ashikaga Yoshimitsu is just the 'alliance leader' of the feudal lords. Now that Kyoto has been captured by our Ming Dynasty, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu has lost power, and the other feudal lords will not listen. ”

"Second, the popularity of "Yayoi Warring States Chronicles" swept the Wa Kingdom, and the feudal lord was even more discouraged."

"But don't underestimate this call to action, think it's useless." Zhu Di said, "If this edict continues, it will make some originally neutral feudal lords fall to the side of resisting us." ”

"Not bad." Hu Weiyong said, "In the final analysis, we are still attacking the Japanese state. ”

"This king guesses that the young feudal lord forced Ashikaga Yoshimitsu to do this." Zhu Di said, "After we attacked the Japanese soldiers on a large scale, the young feudal lord immediately led his 30,000 troops to follow the direction of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's escape. ”

"Hehe, if we didn't want to fight him, his 30,000 army would have been wiped out a long time ago."

"Your Highness, urgent military situation." As soon as he finished speaking, another sergeant walked in and reported to the two men. Zhu Di took the military intelligence report and looked at it, and sure enough, the 'Wakayama incident' happened in the Japanese country.

The young feudal lord put Ashikaga Yoshimitsu under house arrest in a hot spring pavilion and then forced him to issue an edict against the Ming Dynasty.

"Sure enough, he did it!" Hu Weiyong took the report and said, "Isn't this person capricious? ”

"He is dissatisfied with our support for his sister Hatachiyo, and has no intention of supporting him." Zhu Di said, "He did this for his personal interests." Mr. Qin has long said that as long as we think about all historical issues that cannot be explained, it is easy to find the correct answer. And this answer is also the closest to the truth of history. ”

"The students taught by Mr. are really amazing!" Hu Weiyong said.

"This king has long seen that this young feudal lord is not a good stubble, but a person who is consumed by profit. If he is fostered as the future lord of the Japanese kingdom, the Ming Dynasty will definitely not be able to control him. Zhu Di said.

"So even if he let us land on the Japanese mainland, and has already given us a letter of resignation, His Highness still doesn't support him?" Hu Weiyong said.

"Not bad." Zhu Di said, "He is not a good candidate. ”

"Only the 'Queen of Yamatai' is the best candidate."

"And the queen of Yamatai will be dedicated to Mr. in the future."

"Your Highness is really filial piety and respectful of the teacher." Hu Weiyong sighed for a while, "After Mr. Qin came out of the mountain, he will be the man of the 'Queen of Yamatai', and he will definitely be very satisfied with His Royal Highness's filial piety." ”

"Honoring the teacher is the duty of the student." A smile appeared on Zhu Di's face, and he fantasized in his heart that Qin Yu was full of joy.

"Let's not talk about that." Hu Weiyong said, "My subordinates dare to guess that the young feudal lord must not be Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's opponent. ”

"It won't be long before there will be a big change on the Wakayama side."

"Although the young feudal lord has 30,000 elites under his command, it seems that he is in control of the overall situation. But who is Leyiman? An old fritter who has been a general for decades. Although the young feudal lord was ambitious and had soldiers under him, he was still too tender in front of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. ”

"Yes, you're right." Zhu Di said.

"Ashikaga Yoshimitsu called on the feudal lords to resist my Ming Dynasty, and sent orders to the generals of the various armies, so that they must be careful." Zhu Di said, "The king's army has been repaired for three days, and after three days, they will attack Tottori." ”

"Yes!" Hu Weiyong said.

"As for the matter of supporting the officials of the Japanese State who are friendly to the Ming Dynasty, I will leave it to you with full authority." Zhu Di said again.

"Yes!" Hu Weiyong said.

Every time the Ming army captured a city, it had to support a local official who was friendly to the Ming Dynasty to help the Ming garrison the city. The Ming Dynasty only had 50,000 troops, and it was impossible to leave a part of the people to garrison every city captured.

Then there will simply not be enough soldiers.

At most, a ten-person small flag is left to be stationed to monitor and support the officials.

The candidates they support are basically very obedient.

And the cultivation of goodwill is an extreme test of a person's ability and wisdom to do things, and people who have no ability really can't do it, or can't do it well. However, Hu Weiyong is a powerful man, and he can do it well.

And it does not leak.

He once boasted in front of Lan Yu and others: The official is not as good as you in terms of fighting, but when it comes to the doorway in being an official, all of you are not as good as a finger of the official.

"Kyoto is an important city of the Japanese Kingdom, who do you plan to support?" Zhu Di asked.

Zhu Di usually doesn't ask about the puppet candidates that Hu Weiyong has cultivated in other places, but Kyoto is too important, he must personally ask about it, and he has a good heart.

"This person's name is Sakurai Tadashi, and he is the ruler of the Sakurai family." Hu Weiyong said, "The Sakurai family is a big family in the Wa Kingdom, with ten retainers and five thousand samurai, and they are fully capable of helping us defend the rear of Kyoto." ”

"How loyal is this person?" Zhu Di asked.

"Your Highness, don't worry, your subordinates have already inspected it, and this person can be trusted." Hu Weiyong said, "In "Yayoi Warring States Chronicles", their ancestor Sakurai Ria is Zhao Yun among the five tiger generals, who was seven in and seven out by the enemy. ”

"The Sakurai family was extremely excited after seeing the Yayoi Sengoku Chronicles, and their ancestors were already regarded by them as the pride of the family."

"Are we using 'Zhao Yun' to defend Kyoto, are we afraid that he will not be able to rebel?"

"I'm relieved." Zhu Di said, "Every time we capture a city, we have to buy people's hearts to prevent fires in the backyard." The great benefits were given to those submissive feudal lords, making them feel that it was better to be an official under the rule of the Ming Dynasty than to be an official under Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. For example, give them money, or promise to be awarded the title and honor of Daming in the future. ”

"This does not need to be specially ordered by His Highness, his subordinates are already doing it." Hu Weiyong said.

……

Three days later, Zhu Di led his army to attack Tottori.

On the way, he received news of the military situation, and the young feudal lord was taken care of by Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. The young feudal lord was stripped of his military power and became a feudal lord who did not live up to his name. However, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu did not kill him, but only put him under house arrest.

"Young feudal lord, it's really not Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's opponent!" Hu Weiyong sighed when he heard this, "It makes sense that Ashikaga Yoshimitsu didn't kill him, and many of the samurai under the young lord are from the Hata family after all." ”

"Nothing is enough, there is more than failure!" Zhu Di said.

"In this way, there will be 30,000 more elites on Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's side, and he will be more confident to resist the Ming Dynasty." Hu Weiyong said.

"Between us and Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, sooner or later there will be a general battle." Zhu Di said, "The whole army advances and attacks Tottori." ”
