Chapter 16: Is It Cruel?

In later generations, there were always people who ridiculed that the Warring States period of the Wa Kingdom was a fight between villages, and one hundred and eighty people could be regarded as a large army.

This is somewhat exaggerated, because the Wa Kingdom in the Yongle period had a population of more than 10 million no matter how it is said, although it is divided into many Song vassal states, this base number is placed there.

Excluding the old, weak, sick and disabled who could not be used as combat power, the scale of fights during the Warring States period of the Wa Kingdom was basically a few thousand people, and there were tens of thousands of people, but there were very few, basically thousands against thousands, and even more than a thousand against more than a thousand.

Rarely, but not as exaggerated as later generations.

The current Wa Kingdom is still in the Muromachi Shogunate period, far from the Warring States period, and there are still a certain number of troops under the rule of the shogunate.

In the same way, there is a certain number of Japanese pirates.

Looking at the Japanese who were forcibly held to the ground by the Ming army in front of him, Zhu Zhanyan was obviously only a nine-year-old child, but there was a strong killing intent in his eyes.

From the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty to the Yongle period, the harassment of the Ming Dynasty by the Japanese Invaders never stopped, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the Emperor of Taizu Gao, had to set the group training of "the board cannot go to the sea" because of this.

And now, Zhu Zhanyan looked at these "Japanese robbers" in front of him, and he had only one thought in his heart: kill them!

If it was really what the Wa State said, it would be fine, but now the Wa State, which is a subordinate state of the Ming Dynasty, has always said that it is a rogue organized by the people on the issue of the Wako, so they have no way to solve it.

But now, how can these defeated pirates in front of them have the slightest appearance of rogues?

Even if Zhu Zhanyan was a nine-year-old child, even if he had never been to the Wa Kingdom, even if he had never been to the battlefield, he could recognize this group of people as samurai.

Under the rule of the shogunate, the samurai were not considered an aristocratic class, but they were definitely not ordinary people, they were at least a powerful class, because the shogunate represented the interests of the samurai class.

That's it? You rode a horse and told me that the pirates are all rogues!? You sit on the horse and burn the newspaper and fool the ghost!?

"Your Royal Highness, what are you going to do with these people?"

Zhu Zhanyan, who was trying his best to control the killing intent in his heart, was disturbed by a person, and after waking up, Zhu Zhanyan's first reaction was surprise.

It wouldn't be strange if Zhu Ling and Zhu Ping asked him this, because they were their personal guards, and they had to make their own decisions about everything, but who was this person in front of them?

Commander of the Jinyi Guard, Ji Gang!

Yes, that's right, Jin Yiwei also participated in this operation to encircle and suppress the Japanese Bandits, and it wasn't until he saw Jin Yiwei's representative flying fish suit that Zhu Zhanyan knew that he had been under the surveillance of the old man all along.

This was not unexpected, he was surprised that he did not expect that he would be watched to such an extent.

It is precisely because of this that he thought that this incident had nothing to do with him, because Jinyiwei, and the commander of Jinyiwei, came over in person, which means that this matter has been taken to heart by the old man.

But now, Ji Gang, who is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, actually asked himself how to deal with these people? And it's not pretentious, it's really a look of obeying orders.

"Let me decide?" Some were not sure, so Zhu Zhanyan asked again with the idea of verification.

"Yes." Ji Gang lowered his head, completely without the arrogance of the past, and all of them were respectful.

"Your Majesty said that after the success of the encirclement and suppression operation, everything will be decided by His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Oh? That's ......," Zhu Zhanyan laughed meaningfully.

It's just that what he doesn't know is that the smile on his face looks a little ...... to others

Terror.

"Tie them up one by one, break them and throw them into the sea!"

……

Zhu Zhanyan gave the order, but no one moved, and no one even spoke.

This is an unforgivable mistake for the army that orders the forbidden; For Emperor Zhili's Jinyiwei, this is an impossible mistake.

However, at this moment, everyone invariably chose to remain silent.

Because this order is too cruel.

is not quite the same as the plot in the novel TV series, the broken tendons and tendons don't actually affect walking, but they can't do heavy physical labor and strenuous exercise, but they can still walk.

But Zhu Zhanyan said that he would throw them into the sea.

If it is a person who is accustomed to living with broken hands and feet, it will be fine, but if he is picked off and thrown into the sea on the spot, then there is only one fate for these people.

Although Ji Gang was instructed by Zhu Di to obey Zhu Zhanyan's arrangement in everything, he still hesitated in the face of such an order.

This is still the case for a Jinyi Guard, let alone others.

However, Zhu Zhanyan did not give them a chance to express their doubts, and turned around and left directly.

"Do what you are told!" Ji Gang straightened up, turned his head and gave a cold order to the Jinyi guards.

……

Xinhe Institute, after Zhu Zhanyan came back, he sat at the table and drank tea, as if nothing had happened.

"His Royal Highness."

After hesitating, Ji Gang still walked in.

"At this time, the involvement is too great, the villain wants to report to His Majesty, and I hope His Royal Highness the Prince will forgive me."

Zhu Zhanyan didn't speak, just waved his hand.

He didn't care about that.

Besides, what if he didn't want to? He is the prince of the Han Dynasty, and he has and only personal guards, and nothing else.

His father did not get enough support in the court, and his weight in the old man's heart was far less than that of his uncle, Zhu Zhanyan did not expect to be able to make the commander of the Jinyi Guard obey his orders.

What's more, from the moment that order was given, he was ready for everything.

If the old man doesn't care, and can even help him block the impeachment of civil officials and speech officials, then everything will be fine, he is still the original prince of the Han Dynasty, and he will still enjoy the treatment of the royal family.

If the old man cares, or even the old man can't stop the impeachment of those civil and speech officials, then it's a big deal for him to be arranged to go to Yunnan, even if he is deposed as a concubine by taking away the identity of the prince.

His own Lao Tzu still has a little weight in the old man's heart, otherwise he wouldn't have dragged it on for so long, and he wouldn't have been driven away by the old man.

In other words, no matter what the result is, for Zhu Zhanyan, only the superficial status has changed, and the treatment he actually receives will not change.

If you can't say it, he may still please the old man.

"Ugh." Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyan sighed lightly, got up and walked towards the backyard.

"Sometimes, people may be really inferior to dogs, dogs still know how to be close to people who are good to them, but what about people......"

Zhu Lingzhu followed Zhu Zhanyan calmly and quietly, without saying a word.

Xiao Fugui lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly, but he could also see his state of mind at this moment from his shaking body.
