On the Wajima, the wind is surging.

More and more big names have begun to expand their troops, build weapons, and the war readiness race has begun.

Emperor Daigo of the Southern Dynasty was terrified when he learned of the existence of the thief's letter.

As the emperor, Daigo certainly knew about the existence of the Ming Dynasty, and he also knew that the Ming Dynasty was powerful.

For this powerful empire thousands of miles away from Wajima, Wajima has always had a reverent mentality.

From the Han Dynasty, when Queen Beimi first came into contact with the Central Plains Dynasty, Wajima had already realized how large the empire produced in this area was.

Wajima also began with the Han Dynasty and established a thousand-year-long connection with the Central Plains Dynasty.

Especially during the Tang Dynasty, when the powerful Tang Empire came to the court, the emperor of Wajima sent envoys as students to study the culture and political system of the Tang Dynasty.

This led to the Iron Revolution of Wajima, which had been living like a wild man, and it also began to completely change the life of Wajima, so that Wajima gradually began to become stronger.

Even the capital of Wadao is a reduced version of the city restored according to the scale of Luoyang in the Tang Dynasty, and the name is also called Luoyang.

Therefore, there is even a special official position called Shangluo.

What is Shangluo? Naturally, he is a courtier who has the ability to lead troops to Luoyang, and this official position is the official position of the first generation of powerful ministers on Wajima.

Similar to the current general of Wajima Seiyi, they are all powerful ministers who can control the government and represent official positions.

Since Emperor Daigo returned to Kyoto, he established the Southern Dynasty Wajima Kingdom, and the Daimyo of Ujima responded in response, which greatly increased Emperor Daigo's prestige.

Despite the repeated disadvantages of the war with the Northern Dynasty, the Southern Dynasty of Emperor Daigo still has the upper hand.

But if the Northern Dynasty really found the Ming Dynasty to join forces, then not to mention the Ming army, just the Ming Dynasty was willing to support the Northern Dynasty court, which would cause the Southern Dynasty to lose a lot of support.

After all, nominally, Wadao is still a subject of the Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Daigo immediately summoned his confidant Tanakami Jiro to come to the meeting.

"Tian Shangjun, how should we deal with this situation?"

As soon as Tagami Jiro arrived, Emperor Daigo took out a letter and asked him what to do.

"Lord, since the court of the Northern Dynasty is shameless, betrays the country to seek glory, and wants the Ming Dynasty to send troops to destroy us, then why can't we repeat the old tricks and let them suffer the consequences?"

Of course, Tagami Jiro also heard about the matter of the Bun, and hurriedly offered advice to Emperor Daigo.

"What's the explanation?"

Emperor Daigo looked puzzled, not knowing what Tian Shangjiro meant?

"What the enemy can do, we can also do, the Ming Dynasty is our suzerain, and the lord is the rightful emperor."

Tian Shangjiro talked eloquently and continued:

"We also sent a messenger to Daming to explain the truth, and then asked Daming to be our master and send troops to destroy Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, wouldn't this kill two birds with one stone?"

"Wonderful!"

Emperor Daigo's face was full of excitement, and then he said to Takami Jiro:

"Such a heavy task will be handed over to Mr., I hope Mr. will go and return early, and I must invite the Great Tomorrow Army back and destroy Ashikaga Yoshimitsu."

Tian Shangjiro was then secretly sent out of Kyoto by Emperor Daigo and went to Daming.

...

Shanghu County, military base office.

Li Jin received the information from Wajima, took it in his hand and read it several times.

When he saw that he hadn't made a move yet, Wadao had already spread the text of begging for thieves, and now it was a mess, Li Jin knew that it was Zhu Yuanzhang who made a move.

Sure enough, when it comes to espionage and spy ability, Jinyiwei is definitely the top in the world.

It's only been a long time, and Jinyiwei is actually on the Wa Island, making such a storm, it seems that the time to send troops to the Wa Island is not far away.

Just when Li Jin was still thinking, Xu Da suddenly broke into the camp and saw that Li Jin was looking at the intelligence, Xu Da didn't talk nonsense, and said straight to the point:

"Now that the island is in chaos, the emperor sent someone to ask, when can we send troops to the island?"

Li Jin slowly put away the letter in his hand, raised his head and said:

"The time has not yet come, and we still need to wait for one more person."

"Who?"

"Messenger of the Southern Dynasty!"

When Xu Da heard this, his brows furrowed, and he said:

"But we don't want to help the northern court of Wajima, why do we have to wait for the envoy of the southern dynasty of Wajima?"

"Iwami Province is the territory of the Northern Dynasty of Wajima, and if we rashly take this place, it may cause the disgust of the Northern Imperial Court."

Li Jin slowly explained:

"In this case, we can't clearly support the northern court of Wajima from the beginning."

Xu Da thought for a moment, and then said softly:

"Do you want to bet on both sides?"

"After occupying Iwami Province, the Southern Dynasty of Wajima will be overjoyed, and even at this time, our Ming Dynasty can ask the Southern Dynasty to lease Iwami Province to me Daming."

"This is the enemy's territory, Emperor Daigo will definitely not refuse, after all, he will definitely be generous and choose to ally with my Daming."

"The northern court is hit by this, not only will it not send troops to make enemies of my Ming Dynasty, but it will also win us over, and even give up Iwami Province to us in order to gain the support of my Ming Dynasty."

"All right!!"

Li Jin gave a thumbs up and said:

"Our goal is Iwami, that's our primary goal, and everything we do next is going to revolve around that goal."

"But which Imperial Court do we want to support?"

Xu Da was a little puzzled, and asked puzzledly:

"Originally, the Southern Dynasty was already very strong, and with our support, it must not be long before the Northern Dynasty could not support it and was exterminated by the South."

"The Northern Dynasty will not perish, only when the Northern Dynasty is weak enough, will it be when our Ming Dynasty will make a move."

Li Jin's eyes showed a strange light, and he said slowly:

"When a person is desperate, he will do things beyond his reason."

"What I want is Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's despair, and then I can truly implement our Ming Dynasty's plan to dismember Washima."

"As long as our Ming Dynasty begins to intervene, Wadao is destined not to be unified, and they will not have a real winner."

"There is only one winner, and that is our Daming."

Seeing Li Jin's appearance, Xu Da's brows furrowed even tighter, and said:

"But once the Southern Dynasty agrees to cede Iwami Kingdom to us, isn't the Southern Dynasty a friend of our Ming Dynasty?"

"Friends?"

Li Jin dismissed, laughed sneeringly, and said:

"There are no absolute friends in this world, but they collude with each other for the sake of interests."

"If the island is truly unified, we will never be allowed to occupy the territory they are fighting and not leave, and then their next spearhead will be aimed at us."

"The population of Wadao is millions, if it is really mobilized by a powerful dynasty, even our Ming will fall into an endless tug-of-war, which is definitely a disaster for our Ming Dynasty."

"Therefore, Wajima must be dismembered, and it will never be reunited."

"We, the Ming Dynasty, will continue to bleed the island until the island can no longer pose a threat to our Ming Dynasty, at that time, it will be our Ming Dynasty that annexes the island and recovers this homeland that has been separated from our Central Plains for a long time."

"Wadao has belonged to China since ancient times, and it has been an indisputable fact since the Qin Dynasty."

Seeing the fanaticism on Li Jin's face, Xu Da opened his mouth and didn't say anything more.

As Zhu Yuanzhang said to himself before, Li Jin's obsession with Wadao has reached the point of madness.

Xu Da couldn't help but mourn silently for Wajima in his heart, and didn't understand where Wajima provoked such a madman as Li Jin.

He always felt that Li Jin's attack on Wadao had a different purpose, and it was by no means a simple gold and silver mine.

But what the purpose is, Xu Da doesn't know, he can only wait until he occupies Wadao in the future, and then see how crazy Li Jin will make.

After the two had finished talking, within a few days, the person they had been waiting for arrived.

A man who claimed to be an envoy of the Southern Dynasty on Wadao Island was sent to Li Jin's military base by Zhu Yuanzhang with his hands tied and blindfolded.

Obviously, Zhu Yuanzhang also knew about Li Jin's plan, and this person was Li Jin's last territory to attack Wadao.
