Chapter 87: Kyoto Treaty!
"Boss, our mission is complete, shouldn't we go to Qiongzhou? How did you get here? ”
In the snow-covered valley, a group of people dressed in black brocade gathered around the fire to rest and eat food.
By the fire of the largest of them, the deputy commander of the Moon Shadow Guard handed a piece of barbecue meat to Li Tian, the commander of the Moon Shadow Guard, and couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.
"Do you know where this is?"
Taking a bite of the barbecue, Li Tian asked back casually.
"Sado Island."
The deputy commander answered directly.
Li Tian nodded, and he didn't hide anything from his subordinates, and replied directly: "There are two gold and silver mines here, and the output is the largest in the world. ”
Hearing this answer, everyone present instantly understood why they came here.
As the most loyal department of His Royal Highness King Yue, their degree of secrecy is beyond doubt.
Some time ago, they heard that His Royal Highness King Yue handed over Iwami Silver Mountain to the imperial court, and they were a little sorry.
Thinking that if His Royal Highness King Yue took this silver mine, King Yue would not have to worry about funds in the future.
But now that Li Tian has told the reason why they came here, everyone understands.
His Royal Highness King Yue still had reservations about the imperial court, and threw the Iwami Silver Mountain to the imperial court as a smoke bomb, and secretly built two gold and silver mines by himself.
Filling the last bite of barbecue into his mouth, Li Tian took a sip of water and continued: "In the future, we will be stationed here, in addition to supervising the miners of the Wa Kingdom and mining veins, we are also responsible for protecting here. ”
"As for the issue of personnel expansion, His Highness has also made arrangements, and after a while, he will send a group of children over, these children are all Japanese people, and they will be our new members in the future."
After speaking, he got up and patted the snow on his buttocks, and said to everyone: "Your Highness has placed us here, which is your absolute trust in us." ”
"Ten years!"
"We're here for ten years, and after ten years you'll be promoted and placed elsewhere."
After speaking, he stopped paying attention to everyone, lay on the warm leather, took the map and frowned and thought about it.
After Li Tian captured Yan Shenggong, he went all the way east, followed the route formulated by Zhu Gaoyu, and began to lose people one by one.
is not the kind of shame that is embarrassing, but the arrest of the Kong family is thrown into different forces, making it look like the Kong family was indeed harmed by the Japanese state.
At first, it was a little better, but when we got to sea, it went wrong.
The Kong family are all frail scholars, and they have never been on a sea boat, so they were dizzy along the way.
When he was about to arrive in the Wa Kingdom, the youngest Yan Shenggong was directly weakened to the extreme, and he died with a whimper.
This made Li Tian have a big head for a while, and he had no choice but to implement the plan in advance and send the body of Yan Shenggong to Kyoto first.
Although there was a bit of an accident in the middle, the task was successfully completed.
When Zhu Gaoyu came to Kyoto, Li Tian brought his subordinates to meet him.
Originally, I thought that Zhu Gaoyu would let them go to Qiongzhou and start establishing the Moon Shadow Guard.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Gaoyu did not let them go back to Qiongzhou, but asked them to go to Sado Island and stationed the base there.
For reasons or something, Zhu Gaoyu didn't hide it from Li Tian, explaining why he arranged them on Sado Island.
I learned that there are two gold and silver mountains here, and the output is extremely large, which will become the start-up capital of His Royal Highness King Yue in the future.
Li Tian agreed without hesitation, and set off with the appointment and identity certificate given to him by Zhu Gaoyu.
Zhu Gaoyu gave him the highest authority to act, and in the future on Sado Island, except for those who held Zhu Gaoyu's orders, anyone who dared to trespass on Li Tian had the right to kill without mercy.
As for the miners, Zhu Gaoyu has already made arrangements.
Let them control the inhabitants of the island first, and use these inhabitants as miners to work first.
As for whether Li Tian can rely on his subordinates to take the entire Sado Island, Zhu Gaoyu will not ask.
It's best if you can take it down, if you can't take it down, you can only blame yourself for being incompetent, and in the future, Zhu Gaoyu will send someone over, and the newly established department of Moon Shadow Guard will be canceled.
It is precisely because of this understanding that the pressure in Li Tian's heart is extraordinarily great.
This is related to the future development of Moon Shadow Guard, and if things are not done well, his efforts for so many years will be in vain.
"Old Han, how long will it take for our people to come over."
Li Tian only brought more than 50 people with him to the country this time, and the rest were waiting to be picked up in North Korea.
After receiving Zhu Gaoyu's order, Li Tian sent someone to inform him, intending to wait for everyone to gather and completely control the entire island.
The deputy commander, who was munching on the barbecue, looked at the sky, and said silently: "According to their speed, they will be there the day after tomorrow." ”
Li Tian nodded and said, "Okay, then we will directly start the day after tomorrow, control the entire island within three days, and start mining as soon as possible." ”
I don't know if it's because the deputy commander has strong computing ability, or if he has confidence in his subordinates.
Three days later, the remaining members of the Moon Shadow Guard really rushed over by boat.
Not only did the remaining 400 people come, but more than 500 people were brought with them.
The members of the Moon Shadow Guard used to be active in Shandong, and many of them even went to North Korea to hone themselves.
In order to expand their power, they also took in North Korean apprentices.
Li Tian, who knew that he would have to change his identity and become an official officer after completing the task, understood that more than 500 people could not accomplish anything, so he directly notified his subordinates and asked them to start recruiting personnel.
The first batch of members recruited were these North Korean disciples who had been accepted.
Since the discovery of Sado Island in the 5th century, people have migrated to live on it, and later it became a place of exile for prisoners.
Over time, there was a gathering place.
In the middle of Mt. Osasa, there is an open flat land that is very suitable for farming, and the people here have settled their habitat here.
Although almost 10 centuries have passed, the population here is not large, only a few hundred households.
Nearly a thousand masters, dealing with a habitat with only a few hundred households, that is, Zhang Fei eats bean sprouts, a piece of cake.
It didn't even take a night, and Sado Island was completely controlled.
Li Tian did not choose another place to be stationed, and directly settled in the original village.
There are fertile fields and fruit forests, which are enough for them to be self-sufficient.
A few days later, a letter and a small box were delivered to Zhu Gaoyu.
Looking at the few pieces of ore in the box, Zhu Gaoyu nodded with satisfaction.
"Go back and tell Li Tian, continue to act according to my instructions, contact me directly if you have any needs, and I will do my best to meet them."
"Your family can also rest assured, I have sent someone to look for them, and I will take them to Qiongzhou for resettlement."
Successfully controlling Sado Island, Zhu Gaoyu was very happy, and said a few words to the members of the Moon Shadow Guard who were kneeling on the ground and waiting silently, and then asked them to go back first.
To attack the Wa Kingdom, Zhu Gaoyu had three goals.
In addition to destroying the little gourd to relieve the hatred in his heart.
Iwami Ginzan and Sado Island were in his plan.
Seeing the silver mountain, Zhu Gaoyu planned to hand it over to the imperial court from the beginning.
If you want the imperial court to pay attention to the area of the Wa Kingdom, and tacitly accept that he occupies the entire Wa Kingdom without giving some benefits, it is not enough to rely on the Kong family alone.
As for Sado Island, Zhu Gaoyu planned to swallow it himself.
There will be more places to use money in the future, and men don't have some private money in their hands, so what should they do?
As soon as the members of the Moon Shadow Guard left, the Left Army walked in from outside.
"Your Highness, the head of the Shimazu family and the head of the Zong family are already waiting outside the hall."
After putting away the box and letters, Zhu Gaoyu took out two rolls of things and put them on the table, and said, "Let them in!" ”
The consul of the Shangwa District, Zhu Gaoyu, has already been chosen, and that is the former head of the Tsushima family.
Zhu Gaoyu is still very satisfied with the efficiency of this dog leg who took refuge at the beginning.
Two consuls, but Zhu Gaoyu controls the hands and feet of the entire Wa Kingdom, so he naturally can't give it to other families.
Therefore, no matter what benefits the five major forces promised to give, Zhu Gaoyu was not moved.
Compared with those forces that are difficult to control, Zhu Gaoyu trusts his dog more.
"Meet Your Highness!"
The two people who walked in directly bowed and bowed.
"There are no outsiders here, get up."
Zhu Gaoyu gently asked the two to get up, as if they were talking to two friends.
Zhu Gaoyu had a gentle attitude, but the two did not dare to be arrogant.
The gentle young man in front of him is known as the existence of the Great Demon King in the Wa Kingdom.
From the landing of the other side to the complete end of the war.
At least more than 1.3 million Japanese subjects died directly or indirectly in the war.
After years of war, the population of the Japanese Kingdom was only seven or eight million.
And the arrival of this highness, in less than a year, took away more than 1.3 million.
This is only temporary, and it is not known how many people will die in it.
"The Ashikaga family, which brutally ruled the Wa Kingdom, was destroyed, and I, the Ming Dynasty, also avenged the Yansheng Gazette."
"I have decided to withdraw my troops back to Daming in the near future."
The two silently lowered their heads and listened to Zhu Gaoyu's narration.
"This war is said to be for the revenge of our Great Ming Yan Shenggong, but in fact, it is to help the people of the Japanese country to get rid of the cruel rule of the Ashikaga family."
"For this war, we have spent countless dollars."
"Although we don't care about the money, as you who have been helped, I'm afraid you are embarrassed to accept all this as a matter of course."
"Yes, Your Highness."
The two nodded hurriedly.
Shimazu Jiu's face was full of emotion: "Daming has already helped us a lot, and if Daming spends money, we can't help it." ”
The head of the Zong family also hurriedly expressed his loyalty, "That's true, no matter where you ask someone to help, you can't let the family work in vain." ”
"The Ming Dynasty has worked hard for us to save the people from fire and water, and while we are grateful, we can't let the Ming Dynasty bear the cost of the war by itself."
Hearing the words of the two, Zhu Gaoyu nodded with satisfaction, and even said a word of Japanese language with relief.
"Yo Xi, I am greatly touched by your filial piety, and I believe that under your management, the Japanese kingdom will definitely prosper, and the people will be happy and healthy."
"All this is the credit of His Highness, without His Highness, my Wa Kingdom still does not know how long it will be plagued by the brutal Ashikaga family."
Seeing that what he said was almost done, Zhu Gaoyu didn't say anything more, took out the two scrolls, and handed them to the two.
"This is the compensation condition that I asked for by Daming, you see, if you have no opinion, sign it."
The two respectfully took the scroll and glanced at each other, neither of whom opened it first.
Although the two of them didn't read it, they also understood the content on it, which was absolutely harsh, and it was even possible to make people vomit blood after watching it.
Both wanted the other to see it first, so that they could have time to accept it.
However, after waiting for a long time, the two just looked at each other, and neither of them took the lead in opening the scroll.
"Knock knock..."
Zhu Gaoyu snorted coldly and knocked on the table in front of him.
The two of them trembled, and they were no longer in a stalemate, so they hurriedly lay on the ground and slowly opened the scroll.
As the scroll opened, the two of them saw the contents on it.
The content is very intimate, written in both Japanese and Ming scripts.
The name is also very strange, what is the Kyoto Treaty.
The opening chapter focuses on why this treaty came into being.
Because of the brutality of the Ashikaga family, the people of the Wa Kingdom were miserable, and the Ming Dynasty, as the suzerain, could not stand it, so he sent troops to help the Wa Kingdom get rid of oppression.
Moved by the Wa Kingdom, he couldn't bear to spend too much on the Ming Dynasty and wanted to compensate the Ming Dynasty.
But the country is poor and remote, and there is no money for the Ming Dynasty, so he wants to take something to fill it.
Article 1 of the treaty: In order to compensate for the losses of the Ming War, the Wa Kingdom voluntarily assigned more than 50 islands and areas such as Tsushima Island, Hirado Island, Iwami Domain, Sado Island, etc., to the Ming Dynasty, and these areas will belong to the territory of the Ming Dynasty in the future, and the people of the Wa Kingdom are not allowed to enter.
Article 2: In order to thank the Ming Dynasty for rescuing the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty is willing to give 4 million taels as a thank you money to thank the Ming Dynasty.
However, because the country cannot come up with such a large amount of funds, it is willing to use the mine national tax as collateral until it is repaid.
Article 3: In order to ensure that there will be no more wars in the future of the Wa Kingdom and the displacement of the people, the various forces of the Wa Kingdom promise that they will no longer organize samurai armies.
And the two administrative regions will not have more than 5,000 troops, and the Ming will need help in training weapons for personnel.
Article 4: In order to prevent the Japanese from invading the Ming Dynasty and other countries again, the Japanese will not allow a single piece of wood to go to the sea in the future.
Article 5:...............
Looking at the above contents, the head of the Zong family and Shimazu Hisatoyo broke out in a dense cold sweat on their foreheads.
This is thanks to the treaty, this Nima is more than a traitor.
They can still afford the land they ceded, and the country is so big, and there are not many of those places or two.
But thank you for 4 million taels, my Royal Highness the King of Yue, did you write an extra 10,000.
What made them even more sad was that the Japanese state did not allow the formation of an army.
As for the fact that each side can form 5,000 people, the two of them simply ignored it.
The country is so big, this has to be divided, and a town can't even have two soldiers.
What will be the consequences of this, the consequence is that the Japanese country will not necessarily be able to fight even pirates, let alone invade other countries.
And Kazuki is not allowed to go to the sea, this is a way out of the country of Wa completely ruined.
The Wa Kingdom was originally an island country, and if it did not develop its maritime power, it could only dangle around its own one-third of an acre.
In addition to these big heads, what else is free labor for the Ming Dynasty, and the goods of the Ming Dynasty enter the Wa State, and the Wa State is not allowed to collect taxes.
The Ming Dynasty needed to build certain buildings, and the Wa State had to actively cooperate without compensation.
This Nima came down one by one, and he didn't treat the gourd as a human being at all, and he was completely used as a slave.
Holding the Treaty Scroll in his hand, both hands were shaking.
They knew in their hearts that once the two signed the treaty and the treaty officially came into effect, then the two of them would become sinners of the Japanese kingdom through the ages.
You don't have to sign it.
looked at Zhu Gaoyu's cold eyes, and the guards around him with their hands pressed on the hilt.
The two of them understood that they had to sign this treaty if they didn't sign it today, otherwise they wouldn't want to get out of this room alive.
And the two also know that even if the two of them refuse, someone will come to sign this treaty later.
"How's it going?"
Zhu Gaoyu looked at the two and asked calmly.
To be honest, if it weren't for the old man's explanation before leaving, the Japanese country would only fight and not conquer, and he would not have wasted this effort to sign the treaty.
There is no way, it is still the fault of his grandfather Lao Zhu.
The old man of his own family was born in rebellion, and the name he played at the beginning was that Zhu Yunwen violated the ancestral system.
The Wa Kingdom was listed by Lao Zhu as a country not to be conquered, which is something that many people know.
In order to wash away his stains, the old man spent a lot of time with his old nose.
Now that he has almost washed it, he doesn't want to bear the reputation of unfilial piety again.
Therefore, he asked Zhu Gaoyu that the Japanese state could be fought, but it was not allowed to be completely conquered.
Even if Zhu Gaoyu wants to conquer, it will be said after he dies, and before he dies, he is not allowed to break Lao Zhu's rules.
Zhu Gaoyu was very speechless about this, but after all, it was his own father, so he could only nod his head.
In fact, how to say it, with the level he has fought now, there is actually no difference between conquering and not conquering, there is only a name problem.
Although spring has begun, the weather is still a little cold, and the two people holding the treaty scroll are sweating profusely.
As the two of them were silent, the atmosphere in the hall became more and more tense, and Zhu Gaoyu's gentle expression became colder and colder.
Seeing that Zhu Gaoyu was about to pop up in his eyes, the head of the Zong family couldn't bear it for the first time and chose to compromise.
"I'll sign it!"
As he spoke, he picked up the brush next to him and wrote his name on the scroll.
He himself is the patriarch of a small family, and now that he has the right to rule half of the country, he naturally does not want to give up.
As for the infamy through the ages.
It doesn't matter, as long as you're happy, you can scold as much as you want in the future.
Besides, with the character of this highness, will there be a future in the Wa Kingdom, and if you can persist in 50 years of immortality, you have to thank this highness for his great kindness.
Seeing that the head of the Zong family was so sensible, Zhu Gaoyu showed a satisfied smile in his eyes and waved his hand to the left army next to him.
Zuo Jun stepped forward and handed over the official seal and identity document representing the identity of the administrator of Shangwei District to the head of the Zong family.
The head of the Zong family, who had already signed, did not have the slightest concern, and directly picked up the official seal and stamped it on the treaty scroll.
Shimazu Hisatoyo, who was still stunned on the side, looked at the head of the Zong family who had completed the signing and held up the identity certificate.
After being silent for a long time, he sighed slightly, stretched out his trembling hand and picked up the brush, and signed his name on the treaty.
A quarter of an hour later, the two of them walked out of the hall with their identification and official uniforms in their hands, and they never dreamed of it.
Not long after he walked out of the door, Shimazu Hisatoyo, who was silently moving forward, stumbled and fell to the ground.
"How are you, Master of the Shimazu family?"
The head of the Zong family, who was still in relatively good condition, hurriedly reached out to help.
But before his hand touched Shimazu Hisatoyo, he heard the other party's painful whimper.
The head of the Zong family froze in place, and after a long time, he sighed, reached out and patted Shimazu Hisatoyo's shoulder, and comforted: "Don't think too much, everything has accidents, maybe our decision today will bring unexpected changes to the Wa Kingdom." ”
"Maybe when the time comes, not only will we not be sinners, but we will be the greatest heroes of the Japanese country."
The crying Shimazu Hisatoyo stopped, he looked at the head of the Zong family coldly, stretched out his hand to open the other party's hand, held the tray, and strode away.
Looking at the distant back, the head of the Zong family touched his nose and muttered, "I hope you can think about it, otherwise your Shimazu family will not be my opponent." ”
