"Sir, what do you see?"

Yang Chengying waited for Mao Yuanyi to fiddle with the iron cannon for a while and asked.

When they left the barracks, they forcibly took an iron cannon and came back to study it.

Mao Yuanyi said: "The craftsmanship of the iron cannon is indeed different. It's not a profound skill, as long as you grasp a few key points, it's fine. ”

"So, I don't need to buy iron cannons?" Yang Chengying asked.

"Purchasing iron cannons?" Mao Yuanyi put down the iron cannon, "General, why do you want to buy an iron cannon in the Wa Kingdom?" ”

Yang Chengying sighed and said: "Because I don't want to be purchasing, after a while, I won't have a chance to buy it." ”

"The general means ......"

Mao Yuanyi flashed several possibilities in his mind, but he felt that it was unlikely.

"The One Country, One City Decree, the ban on religion, etc., have repeatedly indicated that the Tokugawa shogunate will choose to close the country, which is caused by endogenous motivation and has nothing to do with a certain person."

"And then?"

"Once the country is closed, these cannons will be destroyed. As the trend of peace comes, so will the technology. ”

"The general's words are really cold!"

"This is also the reality."

The improvement of tactics and the innovation of weapons all depend on the improvement of warfare. With the arrival of the island nation's peaceful life, it will stagnate again.

Even the legends of "three-stage strike" and "bottle fishing shot" will disappear.

Mao Yuanyi said: "I dare to pack a ticket, as long as I am given good mechanics and raw materials, I can create a bird gun that is not inferior to the iron cannon." ”

"I'll just wait for Mr. to say that."

Yang Chengying said happily.

In fact, Yang Chengying had always wanted Mao Yuanyi to lead the craftsmen to cast bird guns. It's just that there is no raw material support, and I am worried that Mao Yuanyi will boycott.

Now Mao Yuanyi said that there was no problem, and he put down his hanging heart.

Yang Chengying thought that when the production of bird guns began to take shape and the craftsmen had the production skills, he would discuss the production of flintlock pistols with Mao Yuanyi.

Step by step, no hurry.

I'm back.

"General, I'm back."

Before I saw anyone, I heard Ning Wan's laughter first.

Yang Chengying and Mao Yuanyi looked at the door, and saw Ning Wan and me striding in, their faces beaming.

"What makes Sir so happy?" Yang Chengying asked curiously.

"Haha...... I've had my retinue carry the silver onto the ship, and guess how many boatloads of silver we've loaded? I laughed.

"How many boats?"

"Hey...... Ten ships! ”

Everyone was amazed.

Yang Chengying and others rushed to the dock, boarded the boat, and checked one boat after another.

It's really almost full.

"How did you do that?"

Yang Chengying looked back at Ning Wan and asked curiously.

"In terms of foresight, I am not as good as a general. In terms of intrigue and intrigue, the general is inferior to me. ”

Ning Wan said proudly: "I will directly take these bags of gold and go to Tsushima Domain's lord Zong Yoshinari and ask him to fill my ship with silver." ”

"That's how you did it......"

Yang Chengying originally thought that Ning Wan was gambling from the gambling house, but he didn't expect it to be a direct threat to Zong Yicheng.

However, it is not in one's own interest to do so.

Ning Wan sensed Yang Cheng's concern about this matter, and explained:

"The general is still too kind in his heart, and the Zong family is not good. How much money did they make by monopolizing trade for so many years? ”

In fact, the Zong family almost monopolized the trade between the two parties by virtue of their special position and internal and external concealment, and made a lot of money.

"When I went, I told him directly. If I didn't do what I said, I'd go straight to Osaka with a few truckloads. ”

Ning Wan continued to narrate: "I also said that if you have crooked thoughts, I will let you know the power of the Great Ming Water Master!" ”

The sailors of the Ming Dynasty inflicted heavy losses on the Wa State in the Battle of Wenlu, and also made the so-called "ironclad ships" of the Wa State become decorations.

"You're amazing!"

Yang Chengying shook his head with a smile: "In terms of grasping human nature, Mr. is still superior." ”

I was limited by the education I received in my previous life, and I was really inferior to Ning Wan in this regard.

Thinking that the Zong family was bullied badly enough, Yang Chengying also planned to leave Tsushima Island as soon as possible.

Return to the Dynasty|Xian and Liang Zhiyuan converged, and then rushed back to Liaodong.

Yang Chengying asked his subordinates to clean up and leave here early tomorrow morning.

Unexpectedly, Zong Yicheng took the initiative to come to the door that night.

On a moonlit night, the cold wind blows the branches.

Yang Chengying sat down and faced Zong Yicheng.

Zong Yicheng bowed slightly and said, "I heard that the Venerable Driver is about to leave, and the main hall is here to see him off." ”

Yang Chengying bent down slightly, as a return salute: "If you offend the master, you won't leave, won't you just wait to be scolded." ”

Zong Yicheng laughed: "It's serious." The main hall knows that this is definitely not the meaning of honoring the driver, otherwise it will not go and return. ”

"Whether it's or not, it's all about me." Yang Chengying did not shirk either.

Especially in the face of such people who conceal and forge "national documents" at both ends, quibbling is tantamount to admitting.

It is better to be generous and bear the "crime".

"Honorable, a conversation during the day has benefited the temple a lot."

Zong Yicheng bent down slightly, and pleaded: "There is something unclear in this hall, please answer one or two." ”

"Please."

"The Shogunate said during the day that the shogunate will implement a lockdown order, and what if Ichiden is also restricted to the lockdown country?"

"It's easy."

When Yang Chengying said this, he had an idea in his heart.

The Lockdown Order, the One Country, One City Order, and the rotational pilgrimage were all aimed at weakening these foreign daimyo and causing them some trouble.

If the country is really closed, the silver will not be cut off!

Seeing that Yang Chengying didn't speak, Zong Yicheng hurriedly said: "Please tell me, otherwise won't the ten boats of silver in this hall be given in vain?" ”

Good guys, it turned out to be waiting for me here.

"You can tell you, but in the future, you have to accept all the cloth I have here." Yang Chengying said.

"No problem, don't worry."

Zong Yicheng slapped his chest loudly.

Yang Chengying said with a smile: "I remember that in the fourteenth year of Keicho, the Satsuma clan led troops to invade the Ryukyu Kingdom. Why is the Satsuma clan so active, doesn't the lord of the domain think about it? ”

Zong Yicheng rolled his eyes and suddenly realized: "What does it mean to be respectful...... Let the main hall contact the Satsuma clan and force the shogunate to give me special treatment. ”

"Nope! If the shogunate wants you to shut down, you shut down. ”

Yang Chengying came up with an idea: "You have to actively cooperate, but you have to use all means to give the Satsuma Domain a fire." ”

The curtain of the future is that the Satsuma clan is standing in the front row.

"Oh, I see."

Zong Yicheng smiled: "I want the Satsuma Domain to stand in front, and I am too weak to the Satsuma Domain, so I can only stay behind honestly." ”

Yang Chengying nodded.

"Thank you for your guidance, the main hall is grateful." Zong Yicheng was deeply embarrassed and made a big bow again.

Yang Chengying only bowed slightly, which was considered a return of courtesy.

Zong Yicheng would never know that he had no intention of making him the only link between the Wa Kingdom and the Chao Xian.

The next time the relationship between the Satsuma domain and the shogunate was fired, and the shogunate rule was never stabilized, and the inflow of silver was cut off.

In a pig's eye!
