Chapter XXVIII
Fan Zhuoyuan was surprised, thinking that he had misheard, "Your emperor wants to cooperate with me to fight the Kamakura shogunate, which has the strongest armament in Japan?" β
The messenger said, "Everything is the fault of the Kamakura shogunate, who abused the minister, deposed the emperor, and committed the following crimes!" He also offended the kingdom of God and brought disaster for our country, which is the root of all calamities, as long as he holds his head, surely His Majesty the Emperor of the Kingdom will be angry. β
Fan Zhuoyuan snorted coldly, sneered in his heart, and said secretly: The emperor is so naΓ―ve, maybe Kublai Khan will indeed accept your affection, at most depose you, the emperor, as the king, and often send troops to garrison here to establish the capital of Zhengri.
But I want to use your Japan as a base, silently develop forces, and accumulate resources for the restoration of my Han family rivers and mountains in the future, how can it be as you want, I'm sorry, I want to destroy the shogunate, and I don't plan to stay with the emperor!
But he said verbally: "I see, what conditions can you emperor come up with?" β
"His Majesty the Emperor has no real power, he lives in the palace, but he can't even control Kyoto......"
"Hmph, in that case, what else can you talk to me about helping me defeat the Kamakura Shogunate? Why should I work with someone who has no soldiers and no power? β
The envoy raised his head sharply at this time and said, "Although His Majesty the Emperor has no real power, as an imperial family, he is the only legitimate ruler of Japan.
Whether it is in the hearts of the nobles or the samurai people, it is the representative of Amaterasu in the world.
The Kamakura shogunate can only be called a traitor with an unjustified name! What's more, Hojo Tokimune has always been stubborn and self-serving, and the Kamakura shogunate often appointed private individuals to control large areas of Japan.
It has already caused great dissatisfaction among the samurai and wealthy clans from all over the world, and if it weren't for the huge difference in strength, I'm afraid they would have already risen up to fight against them.
The emperor has no real power, but he has a daimyo! With the reputation of the emperor, as long as it is publicized that the kingdom is here to help His Majesty exterminate the traitors, there will be countless heroes in the world to join!
At that time, the heavenly soldiers of the Kingdom of Heaven will join forces with the heroes of various places who are loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, so that it will be easy for the Kingdom to ask about the crime of killing the envoy without permission, so why not do it? β
Fan Zhuoyuan groaned slightly, as if there was still some use value.
It can indeed help me stabilize the situation after defeating the shogunate, even if I use it as a puppet.
He tapped his fingers on the table, thinking for a moment.
For a few moments, the messenger spent his days on his knees, trembling and sweating coldly.
"I already know what you Emperor wants to do. I have accepted the credentials, and I will wait for the Emperor's sincerity.
If it doesn't satisfy me, then I'm sorry, but there will be no difference between the fate of the emperor and the shogunate. β
Seeing that Fan Zhuoyuan accepted the national letter, there was a sense of acceptance and surrender in his tone, and he breathed a sigh of relief, got up and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"His Majesty the Emperor, in order to show his sincerity, has specially presented the general with some meager gifts, and please accept it with a smile."
Fan Zhuoyuan glanced at the other party, and asked people to present the gift, but it was several boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, and beautiful jade coral, which were simply priceless, and it was hard to believe that an island country had such a huge wealth.
In addition, there are twelve beautiful women.
The envoy said: "The emperor wants to make friends with such heroes and heroes as the general, so he offers some small gifts, and presents two royal princesses and ten national beauties to serve the general's bed, and asks the general not to dislike it." β
Fan Zhuoyuan said: "Such a heavy gift, the more the merrier, Fan can afford to smile!" β
The messenger thought that he had been photographed and was very happy, and was about to introduce a few beauties.
Fan Zhuoyuan said: "Who is the princess!" β
Two of the twelve beauties were the most petite, twin sisters, who looked like they were not even adults, and their faces were sweet and lovely, and it was easy to feel pity just by looking at them.
It's just that the two of them trembled slightly at this time, obviously not expecting that the person they were about to sacrifice themselves to serve would be such a demon god-like man.
Fan Zhuoyuan's physique is definitely one of the best among the many strong men in his previous life, plus he looks like a villain who was born without eyebrows, if in the next life, if he goes to the door of the bank, the staff may have to put his hand on the alarm button at any time.
Unexpectedly, Fan Zhuoyuan said: "I was ordered to conquer Japan, how could I have an affair with the royal family of the enemy country!" The princess retreats! The rest of the women and treasures are divided among the meritorious soldiers! β
The pro-soldier Xiaoyi was overjoyed, arched his hand, and immediately received the order.
The merit book has been made before, and it is only necessary to call people up according to the list.
The beauties were divided among the major households and meritorious generals, and the treasures were given to the sergeants in public according to the merits, and everyone cheered and shouted long live the young marshal, apparently more loyal to him.
The Emperor's envoy looked at everything that happened in amazement, and muttered, "This is the end of the division? β
He deeply understood what Fan Zhuoyuan meant when he said the more the merrier......
There were too many soldiers in the expedition, and it was not allowed to slaughter the people wantonly, so he had to find compensation from other aspects, and he wished that the emperor often contributed so many beauties and jewels, so that the morale was absolutely strong.
Although the envoy's voice was small, it was heard by Fan Zhuoyuan, and he said: "Take your two princesses back, and do this in the future, I can only destroy the flowers in front of you!" Hear me! β
The messenger and the princess trembled in fright, and finally left in disarray.
However, Fan Zhuoyuan borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, with clear rewards and punishments, which increased his prestige in the army.
After the treasure was distributed, many complaints in the army about the inadmissibility of wanton looting were also eliminated, and at the same time, the training of troops became more active and effective.
In Kyoto, Emperor Kameyama anxiously awaited the return of his envoys.
Originally, he planned to move the capital, but the world is owned by many wealthy families, and the imperial court in this region may still have a certain authority, and it can also be served by many wealthy families.
But once the capital is moved, then life and death will be in the hands of others, and it is not much better than being captured by the Yuan Kou in Kyoto, and can you escape for a lifetime? Japan is only so big!
In addition, the emperor learned from the merchants that this group of Yuankou was not a barbarian who wantonly burned and looted, and there might be a possibility of cooperation.
Last but not least, Emperor Kameyama wanted to take revenge on the Kamakura shogunate, which had deposed the emperor several times.
Anyway, they are all puppets, as long as Yuankou can guarantee his status, then there is not much difference between being a puppet of Yuankou and being a puppet of the shogunate.
Besides, the Yuan army is an outsider no matter how it is said, they have no roots in Japan, and our imperial family is the spiritual banner of many ministers, nobles and samurai in Japan.
As a strong dragon, after destroying the Kamakura Shogunate, the Yuan Army robbed everywhere, and it was the Kamakura Shogunate and ordinary people who suffered, and in the end, it was necessary to cooperate with us to gain a complete foothold in Japan.
In this way, wouldn't the status of our imperial family be even higher than it was during the shogunate?
Thinking of this, Emperor Kameyama did not have the initial fear and waited in the palace for the envoy to return.
Finally, the messenger returned......
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Yuan Kou ...... No, General Fan Zhuoyuan, the actual commander of the Yuan army, agreed to cooperate, this is a letter he wrote to you personally! β
Emperor Kameyama was overjoyed, grabbed the letter and asked, "Have they received the gift?" β
As soon as he finished asking, he saw the two princesses following the messenger, who were his own daughters.
Emperor Kameyama was furious, stepped forward, and kicked the two princesses to the ground!
"I let you use all methods to curry favor with the commander of the Yuan army, to conceive his bloodline!
You two useless things ran back on your own despite my orders?! β
The two princesses wept aggrievedly, and the messenger in front hurriedly said, "Your Majesty the Emperor, this is none of the two princesses' business.
In fact, not only did he have no subordinates for the two princesses, but even the gold, silver, jewelry, and ten beauties he gave were given to his subordinates to win people's hearts. β
"Nani? Is there really such a high-minded person in the world? β
The messenger sighed, "This general is not a mortal. β
Emperor Kameyama snorted coldly, "If you don't accept it, then the matter will be difficult, I originally wanted him to establish a relationship with our imperial family."
If a general like him who is fighting abroad has an affair with the royal family of an enemy country, how can he not be jealous of the monarch? That way, we have a chance to get it all together.
Becoming the protection of our imperial family will not only defeat the shogunate for us, but also protect the whole of Japan more powerfully! I didn't expect him to accept it, it's a pity. β
