So after learning that they could be promoted to capitalists, the coastal guard generals were already ready to take action.
But this has to be done by Yang Feng.
This is why Ambassador Yang was welcomed at several health centers he passed by.
Now that it was Yang Feng himself who offered to help, of course these generals would treat him like a boy who wanted to loose money, but Yang Feng was also happy to provide them with this kind of help. In fact, he was willing to provide cooking stoves to all the military households and fishermen along the coast.
Every household provides similar help. The significance of aquatic product processing here is much greater than that in Liaodong...
There is a huge market behind it!
How many cans can be sold in Liaodong, the most they can do is deceive the nomads.
But it's different here.
In densely populated cities, there are a large number of poor people at the bottom who need a cheap source of protein. Although Jiangnan is rich, it does not mean that the bottom class can eat meat.
Fish is also meat!
What's more, it can be done not only along the coast, but also along the rivers and lakes. As long as the fish storage problem can be solved, Daming can quickly obtain a large supply of protein sources. It will also drive other industries, such as making earthenware pots.
Engaged in transportation and the like, and the most suitable people to engage in these industries are military households.
They are organized.
This requires division of labor and cooperation, and can be considered an industry.
In the division of labor and cooperation, their organization will also be strengthened, and the strength of organization also represents the strength of the army's combat effectiveness. Therefore, since ancient times, miners, salt workers, charcoal burners, etc. are usually very good at fighting, because they
The profession has solved organizational problems.
Of course, if this model lasts for a long time, it will also bring troubles.
In other words, the collapse of the guardhouse is accelerating.
After all, they only care about making money, so who wants to fight?
But this will take some time.
Yang Feng never thought that this military household system was necessary to maintain for a long time.
If it collapses, it will collapse!
As long as there is a better system to replace it.
For example, the modern reserve system.
What he wants is that everything is normal when Zhu Yuanzhang is alive. He doesn't know what will happen to the Ming Dynasty once Zhu Yuanzhang dies. After Zhu Yunxi succeeds to the throne, he is very suitable to continue to play the role of a monster. But can the civil servants accept Zhu Yunxi? They dare not resist Zhu Yuanzhang.
Because I really don’t dare, but it’s strange that a little kid like Zhu Yunxi can suppress them, not to mention that Zhu Yunxi has the support of Chang Yuchun series military commanders...
It’s not like Chang Yuchun is able to cover the sky with one hand.
Other factions among the generals, such as the Xu Da faction and the vassal faction, may be attracted by civilian officials.
The final struggle is inevitable.
Especially Zhu Di.
Will he try to seize the throne?
Zhu Yunzhen wanted to reduce the vassal state, and Zhu Yunxi was also determined to reduce the vassal state.
As long as the vassals are reduced, he will inevitably face the resistance of the vassal kings, and Zhu Di will also have to face a choice. In short, everything will be unknown in the Ming Dynasty after Zhu Yuanzhang's death.
Just as they were talking, a small boat sailed on the sea. It was quickly stopped by a Ming army warship. Then it was escorted by a cannon and continued to come. It soon stopped at the dock. A group of Japanese pirates came over under the supervision of Ming army soldiers.
…
"negotiation?"
Yang Feng looked at the Japanese pirate envoy who was trying to pretend to be arrogant.
The latter is here to negotiate.
Or to express their true intentions.
Zhang Xianzong guessed correctly. Their real intention was to use war to promote peace, or to use a victory to force Zhu Yuanzhang to accept their tribute...
Although their idea was to seek death against Zhu Yuanzhang, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu really thought this way. The Toi invasion made Ashikaga Yoshimitsu very clear that he must gain the friendship of the Ming Dynasty, because only Zhu Yuanzhang can stop the Toi from the root cause. Besides,
Those Daoyi are basically in partnership with the Ming army. He has already investigated this clearly, not to mention that trading with the Ming Dynasty has always been his desire.
but……
He has dignity.
He could not let the Ming army and Daoyi burn, kill, and loot in the Japanese country, and then go to the Ming Dynasty and kneel down.
Then he still has no dignity in Japan.
After all, he did not have the same absolute authority in Japan as Zhu Yuanzhang did in Ming Dynasty. Whether it was within the Ashikaga family or local daimyo, there were many people who coveted his position.
He needs to wake up!
Therefore, this time the Japanese invasion was not to plunder, but to surround Jinshan Guards. Their intention was to force the Ming army to reinforce and then win a tactical victory in the battle, even if it was a small one, as long as Zhu Yuanzhang could see how powerful they were.
Combat strength, so that we can propose repairs, and I believe that Zhu Yuanzhang will also give up the situation at that time.
Very smart trick.
Very confident too!
After all, five thousand Japanese pirates dared to do this. I can only say that they are really brave!
Then we faced the cruel reality.
He didn't show his strong fighting power, but he was frightened by the strength of the Ming army.
Yang Feng raised his fingers towards the envoy.
The latter looked at him tangledly, obviously not knowing whether to step forward. After all, they had already witnessed the terror of this demon-like man, while Han Sheng and others looked on with gloating...
People like Han Sheng don't care.
It is not up to them to decide whether to talk or not. They have to report Zhu Yuanzhang's decision. The Japanese people pointed out that this was a misunderstanding. They surrounded Jinshan Guard just to escort the envoy to land, but the misunderstanding was caused because of the language barrier. Now they have found
I asked for a translation, so I came here to apologize and pretend that the previous incident never happened.
They hoped to go to the capital of the Ming Dynasty to meet the Ming Emperor and present a letter from Minamoto Yoshimitsu.
In short, it is a correct attitude.
restart.
This is really not the decision that the local guard general has the authority to make.
but……
You can't really let it go like this, right?
The Ming army also suffered over a hundred casualties!
So Yang Feng liked to play tricks on the Japanese pirates, and of course they were happy to watch the fun. As for causing trouble, he was from the Daxia Kingdom and had a rough relationship with the Ming Dynasty.
"come over!"
Yang Feng drank like a dog.
The messenger continued to struggle. He really didn't dare to go there!
Then the warrior appeared, and among the Japanese pirates accompanying him, a towering man with a height of 1.7 meters pushed his companions away with great momentum, walked forward with a ghost gold stick, walked up to Yang Feng, and raised his head to look at him.
Yang Feng slapped him rudely. The towering man roared and raised his hand to try to block it, but Yang Feng's other hand suddenly came to his face...
"Snapped!"
A very clear sound.
Amid the laughter of Han Sheng and others, the towering man spun around in circles.
But he still stood still.
But then he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and one side of his face was obviously swollen. Then he lost his mind amidst the laughter, roared, swung the ghost gold stick and smashed it towards Yang Feng.
Yang Feng turned sideways to avoid it, and at the same time his hand reached his chest, and he suddenly pulled him towards him. Then the other hand also reached his waist. In the blink of an eye, the guy was lifted up, and he was in front of Yang Feng with his back facing the sky, looking at him in confusion.
Yang Feng......
Yang Feng smiled evilly.
Then he roared and jerked the guy downwards, while raising the knee of his right leg.
The next moment there was a strange sound of bones rubbing. The Japanese pirate's body, in a strange posture, folded into a relatively large inverted V shape starting from the middle of the back. Then Yang Feng lifted him up and then used force again.
The angle was reduced, and with his movements, the Japanese pirate screamed heartbreakingly, but fortunately the lower half of his nervous system had been severed, so it was not very painful.
Yang Feng directly threw the twisted and disfigured guy in front of the messenger.
"Do you think this is still necessary?"
He held the messenger's back and said as if he was possessed by the Zhou Dynasty.
The latter was paralyzed with fear.
"Tell me, who is in charge of this attack on Ming Dynasty?"
Yang Feng threw him away and asked.
The soldiers from behind quickly brought him a chair. Ambassador Yang sat down with his legs crossed. The envoy lay trembling at his feet. Then the translator next to him translated Yang Feng's words for him, and he replied tremblingly...
"The coach Imagawa Sadyo, the Japanese Kyushu explorer, is similar to our guarding general. It was he who defeated Yoshimitsu for Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, and then it can be said that he conquered Kyushu Island. However, he did not come, but sat in Dazaifu, which is not far from Hakata. , is regarded as the town of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu on Kyushu Island. The leader of this Japanese pirates is his son Imagawa Mitsuru, and the participants are indeed the elite subordinates of the Daimyos of Kyushu Island, including Shimazu Morihisa of the Shimazu clan, and Otomo of the Otomo clan. , Maruki Yorisho of the Sagara clan, the one I stabbed to death before was Maruki Yorisho, the younger brother of the head of the Sagara clan, Sagara Maerai.
However, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu may not be kind to these people. These are all local daimyo on Kyushu Island.
Similar to a feudal town.
Before, he and Huai Liang were fighting against Qin Muchu, but now that Huai Liang is dead, he cannot defeat him and has to accept his control. The Japanese pirates in the past were actually under these guys, and the big names in Kyushu Island have always been the backstage of the Japanese pirates.
As for Imagawa Sadao, his achievements are quite impressive.
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu is not very confident about him either."
Yang Feng said to Zhang Xianzong and others.
These are the truths finally compiled based on the confessions of the Japanese envoys and the information from Sister Liu.
"If you succeed, sit back and enjoy your success, but if you fail, you will kill someone with a knife?"
Han Sheng understood immediately.
"So it seems that Japan is also internally divided!"
The commander of Jinshan Guard said.
"The Japanese country is actually very small. It is about the same as Zhili. But it is divided into hundreds of large and small princes. The big ones can only have one county, and the small ones can only have one township or even several villages. That's all.
They called this period until two hundred years later the Warring States Period, which was just a bunch of princes fighting incessantly. At that time, we laughed at it as a village war. Although it was derogatory, it was just a township war and a county war. In the end, The decisive battle for unification was only a little over 100,000 people from both sides combined. It was called the battle to determine the world. You can think about it, in such a place, what kind of chaos would it be like for hundreds of princes, big and small, to fight?
Strife?
It's more than just strife.
Sagara Maeyori was originally besieged and killed by the Shimadzu family the year after he was born."
Yang Feng said.
This was the beginning of the Warring States Period of Japan.
"Then how did they invade the Ming Dynasty in later generations?"
Han Sheng said.
The Japanese invasion of the Ming Dynasty was mentioned by Zhu Yuanzhang in passing when he commended Qi Bin.
To build momentum for his crusade against Japan.
"Have you ever thought that it might be because your descendants are so bad that even Japanese pirates like this can invade?"
Yang Feng said.
Han Sheng and others looked at each other awkwardly.
"If the peace lasts for a long time, it is true that the military equipment may be slack. However, if Qi Bin can have such descendants, our descendants are not too bad after all. How can we lose to the Qi family? I and Qi Xiang are also old brothers."
Han Sheng said clearly stiffly.
Then several other conductors agreed.
Yang Feng had no interest in taking care of them, but the Jinshan Guards were worthy of the Zhu family, because after the fall of the Hongguang Dynasty, the military households of the Jinshan Guards fought bloody battles against the Qing army, and even fought a real street battle in the Jinshan Acropolis. He
Use the telescope to look at Dajinshan Island in the distance. The Japanese pirates' camp was there before. After all, this area is a suitable place to stay temporarily. It mainly has fresh water. Although the water quality is poor, it is still fresh water. But now the Japanese pirates are evacuating, and it is very difficult.
Obviously they have completely given up the attack on Jinshan Guard, and their evacuation direction is southeast...
"Where are they going?"
Yang Feng asked.
"There are many islands in the Zhoushan area, and the imperial court does not have many defenders. You can just find a larger island with enough fresh water to stay for a while, and unless the imperial court gathers a large number of naval forces, it cannot drive them across the sea.
If it's the kind of mountainous area with dense forests, I'm afraid it might take even longer.
This is also the method used by Japanese pirates.
What's more, the Japanese pirates actually have internal agents on the shore. There are some lawless people along the coast who just guide them and trade with them. As long as they set up strongholds on these islands, people will naturally come to trade with them. In fact, the Japanese have always been there before.
What I wanted was trade, so I tried to pay tribute many times, but His Majesty refused.
If we allow tribute trade like Ryukyu, there won't be many Japanese pirates."
Zhang Xianzong said.
It seems that he is obviously a little regretful, so the Fujian people really want to engage in maritime trade.
Then become bigger and stronger and create brilliance on your own.
Just like they did in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, as for the trade that came out of Yisiba Xi, then this can be ignored. After all, the Fujian maritime merchants who were so rich because of overseas trade were not later massacred by Yisiba Xi's army.
.
The most people who were slaughtered were their descendants.
Then those who survived quickly forgot about this catastrophe and continued a new process.
If future generations grieve and ignore it, they will make future generations grieve for future generations again...
And then it goes on like this.
So now these Japanese pirates have just returned to their normal operations, and in this case they will receive follow-up reinforcements. It is too easy to get from Japan to Zhoushan this season. It only takes a few days to catch up with the northeast wind, and even they are heading towards Imagawa Sadashi
The report will not take long, just enter the East China Sea circulation and then turn to the Kuroshio. The only question now is whether Imagawa Sadao is determined to continue. If he is determined, the Japanese pirates can abandon this decisive battle tactic after receiving additional troops and switch to
And continued to attack the coast.
The Ming army was exhausted.
In other words, a war of attrition of wills begins.
This is war.
Everything is possible. If the blitz fails, it will turn into a confrontation and a war of attrition.
Anyway, Japanese people's lives are worthless.
As long as they can come to the Ming Dynasty to plunder, some of the Japanese poor ghosts will join in as cannon fodder, which will be very detrimental to the Ming Dynasty. After all, they will cause a large number of casualties to the people along the coast, and will also make many remnants along the coast ready to take action.
