As hot as the newspaper, there is also the hot summer in June. The Japanese king, Tokugawa Iemitsu, came to Jinling at this time.

Accompanying him was Zhu Dadian, the Duke of Wei. Although Zhu Dadian, who was nearly 70 years old, was still strong, Hou Xuanyan could no longer bear to let him continue running around.

This time, he specially called him to come back together, and was preparing to send someone else to Japan to take charge of this important island country.

Tokugawa Iemitsu made sufficient preparations for the tribute to the Ming Dynasty this time. Although the war in North Korea was not satisfactory, he had already issued a death order to make Sakai Nobuki win a victory during the period when he came to the Ming Dynasty.

The three largest Japanese ships brought one-quarter of the officials of the Japanese shogunate, as well as many powerful Daming clans. There were even more servants and eunuchs accompanying him, and many even squeezed into the ship of the Ming Navy.

The Minister of Rites Gu Yanwu went to Longtan Port to greet him, took a group of people to the Honglu Temple, and left after proper placement.

The old middle school (the highest official position of the shogunate) Abe Tadaki smiled and said, "The Ming Dynasty is so enthusiastic about us. When the messengers came to the Ming Dynasty, they were always criticized. This time the general came in person, and their attitude became kind."

"Of course, we are the best friends of the Ming Dynasty, and they said it personally."

Tokugawa Iemitsu was very happy when he listened to his subordinates and said, "You should observe the Ming Dynasty's decrees and measures these days. When I came, I saw that the streets were wide and tidy, with merchants and high-rise buildings. This was a thousand times more prosperous than Edo and ten thousand times. Sooner or later, we will become as prosperous as this day."

All the Japanese in the house knelt down together and said that Tokugawa Iemitsu was watching the surroundings with satisfaction, which was a desirable capital.

Duke Zhu Dadian of Wei did not even enter his house and went directly to the royal palace. Hou Xuanyan had already set up the wine and food.

The Neihou Xuanyan of the Prince's Mansion stood outside the gate of the inner mansion and waited. Zhu Dadian's frame arrived from afar. The person who rushed to the port to greet him was the Zhu family's wife.

Hou Xuanyan stepped forward and held Zhu Dadian's hands, smiled heartily and said, "Haha, Lao Zhu, thank you for your hard work."

"What the prince said? Working for the country is both a mission and a duty. The prince personally conquered Ji Liao, broke Shanhaiguan, captured Ningyuan City, and captured Shang Kexi alive. This is really hard work."

The two of them compliments each other into the courtyard. Here, the green willows are shaded, red walls and green tiles, water pavilions and towers, and lotus leaves are everywhere. It is a good place to cool off the heat and cool down.

A servant had already prepared the wine and vegetables, and Qingluan poured wine for them. Hou Xuanyan secretly squeezed her gently and said, "You go back."

Qingluan blushed and said, then Hou Xuanyan clapped his hands and asked, "Old Zhu, what did you think this bastard Tokugawa Ie-Kuang this time come to our Ming Dynasty?"

Zhu Dadian was a little surprised. He originally thought that Hou Xuanyan was good at Tokugawa Ikawa, and was both enthroned and rewarded. It turned out that the prince actually hated this person very much?

Zhu Dadian paused and whispered: "Tokugawa Ieguru is a man who seems gentle but is actually extremely arrogant. He must be unwilling to surrender to our Ming Dynasty forever. I think he is here, most of the reason why the Ming Dynasty is strong and steals his skills."

Hou Xuanyan agreed very much, and Zhu Dadian’s idea was similar to his own. He frowned and said, “That’s right, although the Japanese are cruel, they have never been ashamed of being a master. It doesn’t matter if he wants to learn. We open our country and let the four barbarians come to congratulate him. Who can learn whose abilities are."

"Hmph, even if they know our governmental orders and national policies, they must have a talented and strategic leader like a prince to learn a little bit."

Hou Xuanyan felt comfortable, but said, "Old Zhu has said this, haha, I'll have a drink of wine."

The two of them quickly got arm around and were drunk. Hou Xuanyan got up and sent Zhu Dadian out. Then he returned to the inner courtyard and walked into Bian Yujing's room. He was drunk and didn't want to smoke Huang Ying'er who was about to give birth.

Sister Bian Yujing rushed to help him on the bed, removed his shoes and socks, and cooked hot water and soaked soup.

Hou Xuanyan, who was lying on the bed, did not take Tokugawa Ieki's mission to heart at all, but Japan attaches great importance to it, and this nation is very knowledgeable.

What pays more attention to this is Sakai Nobuki who is far away in North Korea. He has received the death order from his master. As a family leader, he must win a victory to enhance his master on his mission.

All the generals in the account understood this, but they knew Zhang Yong's strength best. If they attacked the Qing army, it would be like hitting stones with eggs. However, the small victory caused by sneak attacks was irrelevant, so how could they achieve the purpose of enhancing glory for the main purpose?

Sakai Nobuki's eyes were dark, and he hadn't had a good sleep for a long time, especially when he heard that the general had arrived in the Ming Dynasty.

He pressed the sword in his hand and used a knife like a Japanese, but today was a special day. Sakai Nobuki took out the sword given to him by Hou Xuanyan.

"Everyone, General has arrived in Jinling of the Ming Dynasty. We are still surrounded by people here and rely on the support of the Ming Navy. Today is the day when the jade is broken. I have decided to fight to the death for General. Who dares to follow me to fight?"

The generals below cursed Sakai Nobuki's ancestors all over the 18th generation, and then expressed their righteousness that they were willing to fight to the death.

They have no choice but to go against the will of the Lord, and they are also dead.

In fact, Tokugawa Iemitsu just wants a small victory because there have been too many defeats on the Korean battlefield recently, and he needs a small victory to save some face.

But he didn't understand the situation in North Korea, and he thought that like Japan, he would lose and then he would just keep his energy and continue to fight. The Japanese soldiers in Korea are now facing Qing soldiers, which is not their force at the level. Only the Japanese soldiers who were oppressed here deeply understand the power of the Eight Banners of Han under Zhang Yong's command.

That night, heavy fog broke out in Busan, North Korea, and the Japanese all came out to attack the Qing army camp while the night was dark.

Even the Ming navy on the boat didn't know it. After hearing the shouts of killing, he looked at the sixth place in surprise, thinking that the Qing soldiers were attacking at night.

In his sleep, Zhang Yong got up, grabbed his armor and rushed out of the tent, and the Japanese soldiers were already pressing up like a tsunami.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Yong roared angrily.

"General, Japanese soldiers attack the camp!"

"Haha, it's a good thing!" Zhang Yong was not surprised but happy and said loudly: "The drums are beating, and they used to be so harsh. I didn't expect that they came to us to kill tonight."

The fourth update is when people sleep the most well, so thieves usually choose to commit crimes at this time, also called dog thieves. The Japanese soldiers attacked the camp around the fourth update, which did have a certain effect.

Many Qing soldiers were awakened in a daze. The rockets shot everywhere caused the Qing soldiers' unstable camps to catch fire everywhere. Zhang Yong did not expect that the Japanese soldiers would dare to attack on their own initiative, so the tent was very loose. However, this also left the Qing soldiers with a chance. If the people were dispersed, they would not be easily successfully attacked. Many of them were startled and immediately entered the battle. After a bloody battle, the Japanese soldiers' offensive was gradually blocked and they began to be beaten. Suksaha's Manchu Eight Banners Cavalry and Zhang Yong's Han Eight Banners are both top-notch soldiers in the 6th battle. Although the Japanese soldiers are brave, they are still not opponents.

Nobumitsu Sakai looked at the gradually dissatisfied battle situation, and he let out a sword and killed him. Zhang Yong saw a Japanese general holding a sword from afar. He rushed over and rushed straight to Sakai Nobumitsu's face. The latter raised his sword to block it, hitting Zhang Yong's thoughts, and drew his sword with his left hand and slashed.

With a dull roar of unwillingness, Sakai Nobuki's short body slowly fell down, and the Japanese soldiers no longer had the courage to fight to the death and began to flee outside.

In this battle, the Japanese soldiers came out in full swing, with less than 80,000 people. Apart from the casualties and wounded, there were still tens of thousands of people who fled to the beach.

The navy here used the flames to recognize it as the Japanese soldiers, so he quickly raised his muskets and fired cannons to bomb the rear to cover them.

The Qing soldiers chased him here, fearing the navy's cannon, and they had no choice but to retreat.
