Chapter 1,263 Whats wrong with being a dog for Ming Dynasty!
Former Japan.酢
Heian Kyo.
Hu Zongxian and Wang Zhi stood together, looking at the dilapidated capital below.
In Japanese history, there was a major event called "Shangluo". As the name suggests, it means ascending to Luoyang.
Japan also has Luoyang. The capital of ancient Japan has always been Heian-kyo, which was built during the Heian period. The capital of the Tang Dynasty was centrally symmetrical, with Suzaku Street separating the east and west. The Japanese shape and layout were copied very thoroughly, and Heian-kyo was also divided into
There are two parts: Zuojing on the east side, known as "Luoyang", and Youjing on the west side, known as "Chang'an".
Logically speaking, Chang'an's status should be higher than that of Luoyang, but the funny thing is that the builders of the capital made the wrong choice in Feng Shui. Chang'an in Youjing is located in a swamp, and is a dotted low-lying area. It was basically abandoned before it was fully built.
, the people of the capital were forced to gather in the high dry area north of Sakyo Shijo.
Since half of it had become an unfinished city, only "Luoyang" was left in Heianjing. Soon Kyoto was called Luoyang and Luocheng. In the Warring States Period, when powerful daimyo came to the capital, it was also called Shangluo.
This is a symbol of strength and status. Going to Kyoto to meet the emperor is enough to prove that you have the strength to dominate the world, similar to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when the "Nine-Headed Princes" "allied for hegemony".
Takeda Shingen once organized Kamikaze, and Oda Nobunaga was also very enthusiastic about Kamikaze, but in the end both failed, and no one dared to completely overthrow the Emperor of Japan. No matter how miserable he was, he was still alive after all.
Now, the Ming army has fulfilled the dream of these daimyo, not only to meet the emperor, but also to successfully get the emperor out of Heianjing and enter the Ming army's tent, ready to be escorted back to Beijing to present the emperor as a prisoner.
"Congratulations to the Bundang, congratulations to the Bundang for your unparalleled achievements in building this!"
Wang Zhi had a smile on his face and congratulated him repeatedly.
Hu Zongxian was inevitably excited, but he did not lose his calmness: "Although our army has defeated the enemy and destroyed the country, we must be careful not to let extreme joy lead to sorrow and fall into the quagmire of restoring the country..."
When Wanli attacked Japan against Korea, it was overwhelming. Within a month, he captured Seoul, the capital of Korea. The king of Korea fled to the Yalu River in embarrassment. Nearly half of the country was occupied. It can be said that it was devastated. However, as soon as the Ming Dynasty entered the war, it won several battles on the frontal battlefield.
After the victory, North Korea immediately resumed its state and the entire people began to fight.
It is too difficult to completely destroy a country with a long-standing ruling regime. There are countless small countries that have resurrected in history. Hu Zongxian naturally has to be on guard.
What's more, he always felt that the whole battle to destroy the country was too easy.
Although the Ming army dispatched this time were all elites, and were escorted by dragon gods on the way, and there were no casualties in the storm, but after all, they were on an expedition to the enemy's country. Faced with a life-and-death crisis, the opponent should put aside everything else and resist desperately.
As a result, the enemy did not have unified orders at all and acted independently. Wang Zhi's pirates harassed them first. The Ming army marched straight in and fought steadily. The initiative of the entire battle was always in their own hands. In just over a month, the Ming army defeated
Defeated the allied forces, captured Heian Kyo, and captured the emperor alive.
The more things went smoothly, the more Hu Zongxian had to be on guard: "President Wang, the generals under your command are familiar with this land of Japan, and they still need to rely on loyal people like you to stabilize the four directions!"
Hearing the address of the headquarter, Wang Zhi smiled, but he did not lose his composure. Instead, he clasped his fists and said cautiously: "Xiaguan will do his best to not give the Japanese bandits a chance to come back!"
The imperial court has now designated Wang Zhi as the headquarter, which is the chief of the army. He has the same official position as Yu Dayou. Of course, compared to Yu Dayou, who has deep trust and leads the troops in battle, he is still an empty post.
Fortunately, Wang Zhi did make outstanding contributions in defeating Japan in this battle. I am afraid he will continue to be granted the title after he returns. But he also knows very well that what can really help him gain a foothold is to protect the pirate navy under his command so as not to be suppressed by the imperial court.
Feel free to play with it.
Therefore, it is okay to monitor the trends in various places, but for the sake of the imperial court, he blindly fights against the rebels and causes heavy casualties to his subordinates. He will not do such a stupid thing...
Not to mention that Wang Zhi was making his own small calculations, the sound of footsteps was heard, and Ma Ningyuan came behind him and said: "Teacher, Cui Yizheng wants to see you."
Hu Zongxian said: "Isn't he guarding the prisoners in Tianshen Mountain?"
Ma Ningyuan was also a little puzzled: "It's really strange. This man is walking in a hurry and has a worried look on his face. Could it be that the enemy is counterattacking?"
Hu Zongxian's eyes moved slightly and he turned to Wang Zhi: "President Wang, I have to excuse myself!"
Wang Zhi was actually quite curious, but he also knew that communication with the Kingdom of Korea was beyond his control, so he handed over his hand and said, "I'm resigning!"
When Hu Zongxian returned to the temporary official residence and held a banquet, soon an old man wearing Ming Dynasty clothes, who at first glance looked no different from a Ming court official, walked into the hall, bowed and said in extremely standard Chinese
: "Your Majesty, Cui Hongyi, pays homage to Hu Butang!"
Hu Zongxian helped him up: "Cui Yizheng doesn't need to be polite, please!"
The two of them took their seats. Cui Hongyi, as the Prime Minister of a country and usually a bossy official, was extremely polite and even a little cautious at this time.
On the one hand, Korea was a Tibetan vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and the important ministers of the Celestial Kingdom were worthy of being looked up to. On the other hand, the fall of Japan also gave them a deeper sense of awe.
More than thirty years later in history, the reason why North Korea was so badly beaten by the Japanese army, losing all three of its defenses in one month, disintegrating the Eight Routes, and destroying the country, is precisely because the country has been peaceful for a long time, the armaments have been slack, and the court has
In addition, there are constant party disputes, mutual strife, and political corruption. They originally thought they were equal to their master Ming Dynasty, but they did not expect that the heavenly army would arrive and easily destroy their evil neighbors. How could they not be afraid?
Of course Hu Zongxian could see the other party's mentality and did not comfort him. He quickly turned to the topic: "If Cui Yizheng doesn't come, I will also go to find you. Although the thieves have surrendered, they don't want to obey the sky and rely on the wind of killing.
It still exists, don’t lose your vigilance!”
Cui Hongyi knew that he was talking about the remaining resistance forces in various places, but he was not worried: "There is a heavenly army here. Three hundred thousand thieves are like chickens and dogs. They have been killed. What's the use of the remaining poor people?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At the critical moment of life and death, the famous names from all over the country came together, a total of thirty-two countries, and they still managed to gather 110,000 coalition troops, known as 300,000 people.
In a decisive battle with the 30,000 elites of the Ming Dynasty, they would rather be broken into pieces than to drive the invaders out of Japan.
Because the military situation was discovered early by Wang Zhi, the Ming army led by Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang finally defeated the thirty-two-nation coalition at Tianshen Mountain. The enemy camps collapsed one after another, and many people died in a stampede on the spot. The rest were all captured.
This group of prisoners is now being guarded by the North Korean army.
Hu Zongxian asked: "After the rebels surrendered, did they do anything illegal?"
Cui Hongyi was waiting for such a question. He was about to explain his purpose of coming in a logical manner, but when he met Hu Zongxian's eyes, his heart suddenly tightened.
The two important ministers from different countries made eye contact for a moment. Cui Hongyi pursed his lips, but the words he was about to say changed: "I was about to report to the ministry that there seems to be an epidemic in the army recently, and many people have died.
…”
Hu Zongxian said: "Really?"
Although it was a simple rhetorical question, Cui Hongyi felt relieved and sighed: "It's absolutely true!"
Hu Zongxian nodded: "After wars, major epidemics often occur. I would like to trouble your country to dispose of the corpses properly and not let the disease spread to the people."
Cui Hongyi said: "Definitely! Definitely!"
The Japanese resisted slightly before and immediately suppressed them bloodyly. Those who wielded the butcher's knife were all Korean generals. The Ming army was only responsible for the frontline battlefields.
There is a tacit understanding between the two sides. Ming Dynasty will not ask, North Korea will not say anything...
But now, after the North Korean generals did those things, Cui Hongyi felt that he could no longer carry it alone and wanted to "share" it with Ming Dynasty. He didn't expect that things would come to pass, so he endured it.
In fact, North Korea started targeting prisoner camps for three reasons.
The first is that the food and grass can no longer hold up.
There was a famine in North Korea last year, and there was not much food. They tried their best to supply the Ming army. It didn't matter if they were hungry. They were afraid that the foreigners would feel uncomfortable and cause diplomatic trouble.
But if Japan surrenders, it will be impossible for North Korea to starve itself and provide food for the other party.
Furthermore, the main force of the Ming army will eventually retreat, and it is impossible for all of them to be stationed on the island. If Japan still retains 100,000 young warriors, by the time they calm down, North Korea will be in constant panic.
These two reasons are actually the common reasons for killing prisoners throughout history.
Killing prisoners is different from massacring a city. Massacring a city is often a way to vent anger and deterrence. Killing prisoners is basically based on food and fighting strength.
Of course, the nature of this kind of behavior is even worse and has always been looked down upon by people. A war-god figure like Bai Qi has also received many negative comments in the mouths of the past dynasties.
It’s bigger than a dramatic battle.”
As for the last reason, it cannot be explained to outsiders.
Hu Zongxian, on the other hand, was very clear: "The land of the Four Kingdoms has a lot of gold and silver minerals, and they cannot be obtained by thieves and bandits. This is also a major matter that you and I need to worry about!"
Cui Hongyi was stunned at first, and then couldn't help but smile with joy: "I will try my best!"
Hu Zongxian raised his glass lightly: "Please!"
Cui Hongyi raised his glass ecstatically: "Please!"
North Korea also wants a share of Japan's resources. This is the final reason.
Japan has always given people the impression that it is surrounded by sea, has many volcanoes and earthquakes, frequent disasters, and lacks resources. However, it is true that other resources are scarce, but it is a big country that produces gold and silver.
Hundreds of years ago during the Kamakura shogunate period, gold and silver began to be mined with all their strength to reward soldiers and fight with each other, which shows how rich they are.
Of course, materials are scarce on the island, and gold and silver cannot be used as food. Japan's domestic currency has been copper coins for a long time. Due to the lack of copper, gold was used to import medicinal materials, spices, seasonings, silk fabrics, paintings, etc. from the Song Dynasty.
Things, if they are really luxurious, North Korea has long been jealous of them...
Fortunately, now, they can also enjoy this piece of fat, which is enough to appease the nobles in the country and consolidate their status as assistant minister. They can look forward to becoming prime minister in the future.
Of course, Cui Hongyi would reciprocate the favor by drinking with him. While flattering him, he did not forget to express his loyalty: "I will never let the Ming Dynasty be disappointed!"
I have completely figured it out, it is what the Tibetan family should do.
What's wrong with being a dog for Ming Dynasty?
…
At the same time.
Netherworld, in the sixth hall.
The underworld is running around, the judge is writing hard, and King Bian Cheng is sitting behind the case with a serious face.
The ghost general who was guarding the City of Wasted Death soon floated in and anxiously reported: "Your Majesty, there are too many ghosts in the city and it is difficult to control them!"
King Bian Cheng's face darkened: "No need to say more, just suppress it with all your strength!"
The ghost general replied with a bitter voice: "Those dead souls were all killed by soldiers. These kind of dead people have the heaviest resentment and can't suppress it..."
King Bian Cheng said flatly: "Isn't it enough to go to various palaces and dispatch them?"
The ghost general left in a hurry, but the judge in charge of the case came to him and suggested: "Your Majesty, if we suppress it blindly, there will be resistance, and the underworld can no longer be in chaos!"
King Bian Cheng said: "According to your wishes, what should be done?"
The judge in charge of the case said: "It is better to block it than to open it up. The grievances of these dead souls should be allowed to express..."
King Bian Cheng immediately shook his head: "The destruction of the country was prompted by a benefactor. It was for the great plan of heaven and earth. Is there any reason to seek revenge and vent grudges?"
The judge in charge of the case said in a low voice: "Then it would be better to choose some evil spirits among the resentful souls who died in vain, and restrain other ghosts to avoid trouble..."
King Bian Cheng frowned: "The underworld is underworld and has heavy responsibilities. The laws of the underworld will never allow such reckless behavior!"
The judge in charge of the case tried hard to persuade: "Your Majesty, the Dao is long in destroying demons and the three realms are dim. This is also an expedient measure. Stabilize the situation first before talking about anything else!"
King Bian Cheng fell silent, and after a while he sighed: "Forget it...don't tell your brothers about this matter. I will bear all the charges on my own!"
But before he could arrange for the judge to carry out the execution, a fat and big-eared figure walked into the palace in a hurry, it was Bajie.
When other officials saw this person, they all looked like they had headaches. King Bian Cheng hurriedly approached him and asked, "Why is the Bodhisattva here?"
Bajie said with concern: "Can you come? I just saw that the city of Fusi was filled with ghosts. I'm afraid there will be chaos. Can the other temples provide support?"
King Bian Cheng said: "Now the underworld is in chaos, and the millions of people pouring into the city are really unbearable, but I have a way..."
"I knew it would be difficult for you!"
Bajie automatically ignored the second half of the sentence and raised his nostrils proudly: "Old Zhu, I have a good idea for you. The King of Hell will be happy to hear it... Come in!"
As soon as the voice fell, a cloud of dead souls poured in, all of them with agile expressions and measured movements, with a sense of order and prohibition in the army.
"These are the dead souls trained by the princess. They were originally meant for big things, but the safety of the underworld is imminent, so I, the old pig, went to ask her for some, and they will be used just in time!"
Bajie introduced: "In the past, they were bound to the Hundred Ghosts at Night and were not allowed to be reincarnated. Now they manage the dead souls of Fusang. This is also karma and retribution, which is in line with the laws of the underworld!"
As soon as these words came out, the hall became quiet.
Judge Yin Chai looked at each other, surprised, but also somewhat understanding: "After all, he is a Bodhisattva who is as good as the Netherworld Cult Leader. How can he be as superficial as he usually sees, and be as wise as foolish as he should be!"
King Bian Cheng was silent for a moment, then raised his face and saluted: "Thank you Bodhisattva for your advice. This method... is wonderful!"
