One piece of these soaps made by Yang Jun himself has been used up, and there are still five pieces left.

I'm usually reluctant to use peaches.

I don’t know what Yang Jun is doing at this moment in the distant Ming Dynasty.

The latest news is the reply from brother Xu Guangqi.

He said that Yang Jun was transferred to the capital by the emperor to cleanse the forces that opposed the emperor.

Tao Zi has long seen that Yang Jun is a person who does big things, and he is a great person. Sure enough, Jane is in the emperor's heart and can handle such big things for the emperor.

While she was washing her body with foam, enjoying the refreshing and smooth feeling of the soap foam, she thought that it would be great if Yang Jun could come to Nagasaki to protect herself.

My husband's family was originally a retainer of the Toyotomi family, and they were life-and-death enemies with the forces in Kanto. Now I was involved in the conflict between the shogunate and religion.

The prospects are very bad.

Taozi sighed quietly, Ming Dynasty was too far away after all, and she didn't know if Yang Jun's ship had been built yet.

She still remembers Yang Jun's promise.

When his new sailboat is built and can travel between Nagasaki and Tianjin within ten days, Yang Fan will come to Nagasaki to see her.

While thinking about Yang Jun, a maid walked gently to the water, bent down to salute, and said softly: "Madam, Elder Shiina is here, waiting for Madam to summon you at Maple House."

"Okay, let the elder wait for a while, I will be there in a moment."

Half an hour later, Mrs. Yitian appeared in Maple House in full dress.

"Madam, I am fortunate to have fulfilled my mission. We have visited twenty-three feudal lords in Kansai so far, and they have all agreed to our request to open trading companies. Next month we can open all twenty-three trading companies. But the daimyo

Asking us to get steel for them in return."

Although the Toyotomi family has been eliminated and some of the most die-hard elements have been killed, the Tokugawa family cannot kill all the opponents. They can only kill the chief culprits and let go of the cowards.

After the Battle of Oita, the Tokugawa shogunate significantly adjusted the fiefdoms against the opposition forces in Kansai, and even took away many daimyo's lands and gave them to their own daimyo in an attempt to weaken the power of the old officials of the Toyotomi family in Kansai. This

Sometimes the situation is stronger than others, and they dare not speak out when they are angry, so they have to endure it, but the anger in their hearts never goes away.

They are still alive and determined, and will take advantage of every opportunity to increase their strength.

In the final analysis, this world is not a world of truth. There is only one truth, and that is strength. This is especially true in Japan, an archipelago closed on all sides.

Mrs. Yitian thought for a while and said: "As long as they acquiesce to us opening a trading company, we are considering selling them not only steel but also some fire-gate guns. We have few people and can't use 30,000 guns. We can also sell them to Yang in the future."

You buy it. But we don’t want us to come forward and let some people who have nothing to do with us sell to them. As their strength increases, their ambitions will increase. Only when the rift between them and the Tokugawa family increases, can we have the opportunity to win over them.

To survive in the cracks, the Tokugawa family's biggest enemies will always be these Kansai feudal lords who seem to be in harmony with each other but are inseparable from each other, and Kirichichitan will be far behind. If their conflicts intensify, General Tokugawa will not have the energy to deal with us."

Shiina Gardenia is a woman in her forties. She is ugly, short and fat, but she has a very flexible mind, is good at dancing, and is especially good at dealing with interpersonal relationships. She is currently a member of the presbytery of St. Mary's Order in Nagasaki.

, specifically responsible for liaising with external lords from various regions.

"Madam, you are too careful. Our sect is all poor people at the lowest level of development. No one pays attention to their life and death in Japan. No one pays attention to them. For the secret activities you have taken, the identity of the believers is strictly forbidden to be leaked. There is a single line of communication between superiors and subordinates.

, everyone uses their Christian names. The shogunate will never be able to discover us, and the subordinates have no idea of ​​the true identity of their superiors. Even if someone is caught, as long as we cut off the connection with this line, the loss will be stopped in time. There will be no harm.

A big disaster."

"When I was in Zunhua, Yang Jun talked with me all night. He taught me these things. After I came back, I reorganized the entire cult according to the way Yang Jun taught me. Fortunately, people who know me

Not much. Everything was still too late. Finally, he told me a motto: If a king doesn't keep secrets, he will lose his country; if ministers don't keep secrets, they will lose their lives; if a few things are not kept secret, it will cause harm. He said, be careful and sail the ship for ten thousand years."

Shiina Gardenia was moved and said: "Although Mr. Yang is not a brother in our religion, he is sincere and sincere to us. He is our true friend."

"Unfortunately, the Ming Dynasty is too far away from us." Taozi said sadly. "Yang Jun is willing to provide us with a large amount of goods for us to sell in Japan. We must first let the brothers and sisters who join the cult have a job to make a living.

They know that by believing in us, they will not only receive eternal life, but also receive real benefits.”

Shiina Gardenia nodded and said: "Thank you to the enthusiastic brother Xu Guangqi for introducing Yang Jun to us. If you can get a job that can support your family by joining the religion, then millions of people will join us and be loyal to you."

Taozi nodded, agreeing with her statement.

"How is the recruitment of ronin going?" Mrs. Yitian asked.

Shiina Gardenia said: "Following your instructions, we carefully screen out the unemployed samurai. First, let the believers secretly observe them. Only those who have lost their livelihood without losing the principle of samurai will be recruited. It is better to lack than to waste. So far, five hundred people have been recruited.

.Prepare them to be baptized, join the ranks of retainers, and then be assigned to various trading companies to serve as samurai to protect the trading companies."

"How is the recruitment of miners and mountain people in the mountainous areas of Kyushu Island going? We will train these miners into musketeers. The mountain people will be trained into sword, shield and spear soldiers, just like Yang Jun's army.

." Taozi asked.

After fully understanding the military power of Japan, Yang Fan discovered that Japan did not have cannons. Although there were a small number of large barrels, if they were equipped with heavy metal shields, they would not be afraid of being penetrated.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Then each battalion of 500 people forms a hollow square formation, which is an unsolvable trump card. The outer layer uses shields, the second row uses nine-shot fire portal guns, and the third layer uses

The spear is enough to resist the Japanese army of this era.

Shields are immune to iron cannons (guns), and most large barrels cannot be penetrated.

Dongying's stupid bamboo bow has a range of only thirty meters, which is comparable to the range of the nine-knot burst gun. Although it is indeed more accurate, in the dense formation on the battlefield, the fierce firepower of the burst gun will directly wipe them out.

.

Moreover, Yang Fan promised that he could sell them the captured cavalry horn bows, infantry large bows, and even the bed crossbows stored in the guardhouse. Yang Fan looked down upon these excellent crossbows, but they were good things for the Japanese.

.As long as you can find someone with good arm strength, these super weapons that are three to ten times stronger than Japanese bamboo bows will definitely kill the enemy in a duel.

If Taozi's hollow phalanx is equipped with thirty archers and shoots them outside the enemy's range, the combat effectiveness can be further improved.

Supporting opposition forces is Yang Fan's basic strategy. No matter what force it is, as long as it opposes the shogunate, Yang Fan will support it. Just like they did to us during the Republic of China. Only when chaos breaks out, everyone will rush to buy steel and arms. Yang Fan

Only then will the export market be opened.

Taozi silently calculated in her heart that with the remaining financial resources of the sect, they could secretly form several battalions of hollow squadrons. If that didn't work, they would sell 10,000 muskets. They wouldn't be able to use them anyway, and they could still ask Yang in the future.

You buy it.

The rifle was bought from Yang Jun for ten taels of silver. Taozi was a little reluctant to part with it. After a moment of hesitation, he made up his mind to sell it for thirty taels. In this way, the ten thousand rifles would be enough to buy the arms from Yang Jun this time.

All the money was earned back.
