Chapter 443: Support, Woo, Accept as a Dog
The negotiations were not settled, and Fushimi Miyahito and his entourage could only leave the barracks in a gloomy manner and return to Kyoto in a hanging basket.
In fact, even they themselves knew that a thousand taels of gold, and the price of ten thousand taels of silver was too little.
But the problem is that this money is already the limit that their emperor can get now, it is really the limit.
Their emperor is really poor, and has been poor for many years.
After the Onin War, the Muromachi shogunate was greatly weakened in power during that turmoil, and it was unable to suppress the daimyo from all over the country, thus beginning the so-called Warring States period of the Wa Kingdom.
If you let the monarchs of other countries go, they will see the chaos in the world and the division of the heroes, and they should gather their troops and horses all day long.
But the Emperor of Wa did not have the slightest idea of this, and even if they did, they did not have the strength, and the political form of the shogunate had been in Wa for hundreds of years, and the emperor of Wa had been a mascot for hundreds of years, and he did not even have any real power in his hands.
And the Emperor of the Wa Kingdom did not even think about regaining power, they were used to this model of hypocrisy.
There are pros and cons to everything, and their position can be passed down from generation to generation, which is related to this system.
They shamelessly claimed to be the descendants of Amaterasu and pushed themselves to the altar, and the shogun was also contributing to this, making the emperor a god.
This so-called god does not govern the country, and the power to govern the country is handed over to the shogunate, plus there is no imperial examination in the Wa Kingdom, and it cannot be said that there is none, but it can only be said that the influence is extremely small, so small that it can be ignored.
Therefore, the Wa Kingdom is still a primitive and backward feudal system, and the class is seriously solidified, and their political form of the shogunate is actually a bit similar to coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes.
The emperor is a god and does not govern the country, so even if there is turmoil in the country, the Japanese people will not blame the emperor, but will only think about overthrowing the shogunate and building a new one.
In addition, the Wa Kingdom has always had a tradition of military politics, but the military suppressed the literati, so everyone would only compete for the position of the shogun and establish their own shogunate, and no one thought about overthrowing the emperor, maybe they thought about it, but they couldn't find a suitable excuse.
Therefore, the change of shogunate is similar to the change of dynasty, and the one sitting on that seat is always the emperor's lineage.
In this regard, the emperor of the Wa Kingdom was not satisfied with anything.
However, this kind of satisfaction was only limited to the Taiping world, and during the Taiping period, the shogunate was powerful and could subdue the nobles from all over the country, and it would also allocate silver taels to support the emperor's family, although it was not much, but it was definitely enough.
But now in this troubled era, it is difficult for the Muromachi shogunate to protect itself, and those daimyo who fight to the death are eager to beat each other's dog brains, who can take care of the emperor?
In addition, many noble ministers left Kyoto and returned to their own fiefdoms, and then became one of the daimyo who fought against each other.
Now the emperor tried to find someone to borrow money, but he couldn't find anyone.
Today's emperors, day and day, night and night, hope that the daimyo of the divided side will fight each other more fiercely, and quickly divide the winners and losers, and establish a new shogunate, and then someone will continue to support them.
By the way, the enthronement ceremony will be reorganized, and the coffin of the inaugurated emperor will be replaced with a thicker one.
The current Emperor Go-Kashiwahara succeeded to the throne just a few years ago, and now five or six years later, he still has not collected the money to hold the enthronement ceremony.
And the previous emperor, after his death, he had no money to bury, and finally stopped for many days, seeing that he really couldn't put it, and then put it into a bone, so he could only find a thin coffin and bury it hastily.
This is the current situation in the territory of the Wakoku.
The Muromachi shogunate existed in name only, and countless daimyo in the country were divided and competed for the qualification to establish the shogunate.
People and ghosts are all showing, but the emperor is the most uncomfortable.
Not only is it uncomfortable, but he will be beaten the most poisonously immediately.
"Zhang Shuai should rest assured now, there are indeed not many troops in Kyoto, and the lower official said before that they had two choices, one is to send a large army and let us retreat in the face of difficulties; The second is to show sincerity, and this Fushimi Miyashihito chose the latter, which shows that there is no army in the city. ”
"So take advantage of this opportunity, we should attack the city as soon as possible, no matter how this Kyoto is, it is also the capital of the Japanese country, and the surrounding Ming Dynasty is afraid that if they know the news that our soldiers are besieging Kyoto, they will definitely send reinforcements, and when the time comes, it will inevitably increase the attrition."
Zhang Mao bowed his head, "What you said is reasonable, but wait, wait for the scouts sent to come back, and confirm again, so that the commander can rest assured, and the soldiers must be allowed to rest well." ”
After that, he paused slightly and leaned a little, and asked, "Will you capture this Kyoto and do you follow the slaughter of the city?" ”
Hearing this, Xia Yuan was silent for a moment before saying, "Do it." But Xia Guan thought that after capturing this capital, it was time for us to discuss a new way of playing. ”
"A different way of playing?"
"Well, the way we go to kill wherever we go now is certainly relieving, and it is also true that we have robbed a lot of property, but this is not a long-term solution, although Xia Guan Ting wants to completely destroy the Japanese country, but this is very difficult to do."
"Now that the Japanese civil strife is serious, and the names of the separatists are everywhere, if we can break them one by one, or even two, or three, it will not be difficult to destroy their country and destroy their species.
But although our current style of play can deter the enemy chieftain, this move. In short, if this continues, sooner or later these daimyo of the Wa Kingdom will be forced to unite, and when the time comes, they will fight to the death, and I, the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, are in a foreign land, and whether they can win is still between the two. ”
Xia Yuan said it very tactfully, but in fact, it is difficult to have a chance of winning, or even almost no chance of winning, and now the tactics of the Ming army are too extreme, and they are completely rushing to destroy the country and destroy the species.
This kind of fighting, forcing all the daimyo of the Wa Kingdom to unite is secondary, and I am afraid that the ordinary people of the Wa Kingdom will also unite against the Ming army.
At that time, the tens of thousands of troops of the Ming Dynasty will not face the daimyo of the Wa State, nor the army of the Wa State, but the millions or even tens of millions of people of the entire Wa State.
In the face of the absolute number of people, the Ming Dynasty wants to fight, can only rely on the continuous increase of troops in the country, but the terrain of the Japanese country is broken, there are few plains, mountains and jungles, such a landform to fight is a mountain war, is a dense forest war, in the Japanese country to fight this kind of battle, who knows the terrain and landforms better than them themselves?
Da Ming is congenitally at an absolute disadvantage.
Therefore, in the end, the more likely result is that the Ming Dynasty will be dragged down by the war one step ahead.
These days, Xia Yuan has thought a lot, he admits that he doesn't understand military affairs, and he took it for granted at first, but fortunately, it is not too late at this time.
He bowed to Zhang Mao very sincerely, "The proposal of the previous junior is the pedantic opinion of the scholar, not the theory of seeking the country, this is the fault of the younger generation." ”
Zhang Mao smiled, "Even if you don't mention it, the old man is afraid that he will have to mention to you about changing the style of play, this style of fighting is not a method of conquest at all, so what do you think should be changed?" ”
"Support, woo, accept as a dog."
