This little Lori hugged Xu Xi when she saw her, and Zhang Yun had no choice but to let Xu Xi stay in the tent to appease her, and then deal with it when the people from the Kobayakawa family arrived.

After the spread of Tokugawa Ieyasu and Fujido Takatora, the "death news" of Toyotomi Hideyoshi spread throughout the Japanese island, and Toyotomi Hideji couldn't sit still, and sent people to suppress rumors on the one hand, and secretly sent people to North Korea to get in touch with Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

At midnight, Zhang Yun was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly woken up by a rush of footsteps outside, followed by a deep voice.

"Master Hou, my subordinates are incompetent, so I let a team of people rush out, it seems that I should go to Toyotomi Hideyoshi to report the news."

Zhang Yun shook his head, waved his hand outside, and said, "Forget it, let him go if he goes, you send someone to follow, and be sure to let General Li drag the main force of the Japanese invaders." ”

"Yes."

Five days later.

Several warships floated around the waters of North Korea, one side of the warship was black, with obvious signs of battle, and several samurai dressed as warriors stood on the warship.

They looked at the Korean Peninsula at hand, breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on their dark faces.

A small man smiled at the person in front of him and said, "Tanaka-kun, we have finally arrived, and this Ming army is like a mad dog, chasing after us to the death." ”

Tanaka smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's finally here." ”

After sailing for about an hour, the group was spotted by patrolling Japanese soldiers, who brought them to Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

As soon as he entered, Ichiro Tanaka cried out with tears in his eyes: "General, if you really don't die, I know that you definitely won't die." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall looked at each other, and then moved their eyes to the direction of Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

I saw that Toyotomi Hideyoshi's face was as suffocated as a pig's liver, and his chest continued to rise and fall because of anger, and finally turned into an angry roar: "Yaga Yalu, Tanaka-kun, you don't stay in Osaka well, what do you mean by running to curse me to death?" ”

Ichiro Tanaka was frightened by this roar, and his face was aggrieved: "General, it's this guy Fujido Takatora, he said that you are dead, and now it is spread all over the island of Japan." ”

"Yaga, what is this bastard of Fujitang Gaohu doing, didn't I ask him to press the jewelry back?" Toyotomi Hideyoshi muttered to himself. "By the way, why are you so flustered?"

Only then did Tanaka remember another thing: "The Ming army..., the Ming army took advantage of the emptiness of Kyushu Island and invaded Kyushu Island, and now half of Kyushu Island has fallen into the hands of the Ming army."

Even... Even the Kobayakawa family surrendered to the Ming army. ”

As soon as Tanaka's words fell, a good-looking middle-aged man in front of Toyotomi Hideyoshi rushed towards him and grabbed his collar: "Baga presses, Tanaka, do you know what you're talking about?" ”

"Kobayakawa Governor, what I said is true, if you don't believe me, you can ask the people who came with me." Tanaka replied.

The middle-aged man almost sat down on the ground, looking dejected. This man is none other than the contemporary governor of the Kobayakawa family, Kobayakawa Takakei.

After a short period of distraction, he immediately bowed to Toyotomi Hideyoshi: "General, I request to lead the navy back to Kyushu Island to exterminate this group of Ming troops." ”

Toyotomi Hideyoshi was shocked at first when he heard the news, but then he was secretly happy in his heart, so that the daimyo on Kyushu Island would be weakened again, and he would be able to clean them up properly when he returned.

"Kobayakawa-kun, the Ming army is strong, I think it's better to wait for us to go back together."

"General, time waits for no one." Kobayakawa Takashi is in a hurry, and the co-author didn't hit your house, so of course you're not in a hurry.

His wife and children are all on Kyushu Island, if his wife and concubine fall into the hands of the Ming army, when he thinks of this, Kobayakawa Takakei is like a knife.

In order to reassure Kobayakawa, Toyotomi Hideyoshi assured him that if Toyotomi Hideji sent troops to deal with the Ming army, he would definitely be able to protect his family, and the fief would be ceded to the Ming army first.

Kobayakawa Takakei was still not at ease, and asked again to return to Japan with his troops, Toyotomi Hideyoshi scolded sharply: "Kobayakawa Takakei, I am the general, I have the final say on these things." ”

As soon as these words came out, the air in the tent was extremely cold, you must know that Toyotomi Hideyoshi was quite polite to Kobayakawa Takakei on weekdays, at least on the surface.

Like today, it is still rare to call him by his name directly and scold him sharply.

Kobayakawa Takashi was slightly stunned, and nodded helplessly, but a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, which was fleeting.

After dealing with Kobayakawa Takakei, Toyotomi Hideyoshi asked Tanaka Ichiro about the domestic situation again, and after learning that Tokugawa Ieyasu, an old boy, was not honest, he was really shocked.

After all, in addition to his fear of the Maori family, another thing he feared was the Tokugawa family. Their family had considerable prestige in the Kanto region, and many of the local daimyo took refuge in him.

As a prince of Kansai, the daimyo of Kanto naturally rejects himself. In the past two years, Tokugawa Ieyasu's power has become more and more powerful, and it has reached the point where he has to be afraid.

But now that he and the Ming army are deep in the swamp of Korea, Konishi Yukinaga and others are confronted by the Ming army, and they don't know how long it will take to end the war.

Suddenly, a thought popped into his mind. "Peace Talks"

It's a big deal that I will give in again and open the head office with the Ming army.

As soon as he thought of this, Toyotomi Hideyoshi no longer hesitated, and smiled at Tanaka Ichiro: "Tanaka-kun, then it's hard for you to run again."

You go and tell Konishi-kun that I am willing to negotiate peace with the Ming army again, on the condition that we only want the two ways of Korea. ”

"Hey." Ichiro Tanaka nodded in response.

Three days later, Seoul.

It has been 200 years since the Lee family became the ruler of the Korean Peninsula and made this city their capital.

After the development of several generations of kings of the Li family, this city could have become a fortress in Korea, with a height of seven or eight zhang and a moat, which was absolutely easy to defend and difficult to attack.

However, the Korean monarch was afraid of the war like a tiger and ran away before the battle began, plus there were two dogs to open the door to the Japanese army, otherwise the Japanese army would pay a lot of price to take this Xiongcheng.

It was precisely because of this that the Japanese army took Seoul almost without paying a big price, and the fortifications of Seoul were preserved intact, but now they became an obstacle to the Ming army's attack.

On this day, Governor Konishi was discussing with the five old devils how to resist the offensive of the Ming army, when he suddenly heard someone from outside reporting: "Konishi-kun, the general has sent someone to deliver a letter." ”

"Oh?" Governor Konishi squatted for a moment, then smiled and said, "Go and invite people in." ”

As soon as the words fell, not long after, someone led Ichiro Tanaka in.

"Tanaka-kun, aren't you in Osaka? What are you doing here? When everyone saw Ichiro Tanaka, they looked confused.

Ichiro Tanaka had a bitter face and said, "The Ming Army...

I just came to the front line to have a look, and when the general saw that I was fine, he asked me to deliver the letter. ”

Originally, he wanted to explain that the army had attacked Kyushu Island, but when he remembered that Shimazu Yoshihiro was here, he had to change his mind immediately.

Governor Konishi frowned slightly, sensing that he had something to hide, but he didn't bother to ask more, "What did the general send you for?" ”

"The general wants you to negotiate peace with the Ming army, end the war and return to Japan as soon as possible, we only need two territories." Tanaka replied calmly.

As soon as these words came out, several people in the hall looked at each other and moved their eyes to Konishi Yukinaga.

In this regard, Governor Konishi has experience, judging from the two conversations he had with the Ming army, it became a common practice for the Ming army to be untrustworthy, and his eyelids jumped at the thought of negotiating with the Ming army again.

When Tanaka first arrived, he didn't know what was going on: "Gentlemen, could it be that the Ming army has a great appetite, so it can't satisfy them at all?" ”

Several people smiled and didn't speak, and handed over the final decision to President Konishi, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "Go and call Inoue-kun in for me." ”

"Stampede ......" There was a sound of footsteps outside, and soon a man walked in.

"Konishi-kun, are you looking for me?"

Konishi Yukinaga patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Inoue-kun, now there is another task to be handed over to you." ”

Inoue Hirohiko looked at the ill-intentioned smile of Yukicho Konishi, and couldn't help but be wary in his heart, where did he seem to have seen this kind of smile, where was it?

Suddenly it occurred to him that every time he was sent to a peace talk, he seemed to have this kind of smile.

Sure enough, as soon as Inoue was about to speak, Governor Konishi interrupted: "The general came with news, saying that we should go to negotiate peace with the Ming army and then withdraw the army, you ...... this task."

Inoue's face was gloomy: "Xiaoxi-kun, the credit of the Ming army, you are ....... Why do we bother to do all this useless work? ”

"I know, too, but this is the general's order, and I don't know what he thinks, so I have to try, right?"

"Inoue-kun, please!" Several people bowed to Inoue Hirohiko in unison.

Inoue had no choice but to respond, anyway, he just went through the motions.

After President Konishi gave a few more instructions, several old devils dispersed together, and he left Ichiro Tanaka alone, ready to ask what happened.

Suddenly, only Yukinaga Konishi and Ichiro Tanaka were left in the room. Governor Konishi asked, "Tanaka-kun, what did you mean by the Ming Army at the beginning?" ”

Tanaka couldn't hide it, so he had to whisper in his ear: "A naval army of the Ming army attacked Kyushu Island, and now half of Kyushu Island has fallen, leaving the Shimazu family struggling.

Tokugawa Ieyasu was also ready to move, and the Shogun was forced to end the war in Korea. ”

Konishi Yukicho frowned, he didn't expect that the situation had gotten so bad, if he continued to spend time with the Ming army here, his home would be gone.

"Alas, I have long advised the general to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, but I didn't expect Tokugawa Ieyasu, the villain, to stab him in the back again."

Tanaka Ichiro nodded, and then instructed: "Xiaoxi-kun, don't let a few other people know about this matter, otherwise the army's mind will change." ”
