"Then send all these weapons and armors out. I have only one request, and that is to make the strength ratio of the two tribes as close as possible."
"Do you have any doubts about this?"
Everyone shook their heads in unison.
This requirement is easy for them because this is their previous job in the military.
The two Japanese armies were not large in number, and their composition was not complicated. Based on their experience, one day was enough to make a thorough plan.
Su Chen waved his hand and said: "Okay, then you can take a rest first and then prepare for tomorrow's action!"
The effects of this bombing have already been seen, and we can just follow the plan later.
After things here were arranged, Su Chen called Lao Zhuang over again and asked, "Did you just send out our banner?"
Lao Zhuang replied respectfully: "Don't worry, young master, everything is going according to your instructions. After the explosion, we released the Su Ziqi. Those Japanese people must have seen it."
"Then what do we do next?"
Su Chen leaned on the recliner, squinted his eyes, and said lazily: "Wait!"
"If nothing else happens, the king of Japan should be here tomorrow at the latest."
"Raise the flag sail on the boat and wait quietly for the fish to take the bait!"
Lao and Zhuang should hand it over.
Not long after, the Su flag rose from the mast and fluttered in the wind.
In Su Chen's plan, letting the two tribes of Japan continue to carry out the war was only the first step.
The purpose was to consume their military power, balance the strength of the two tribes, and plunge the Japanese country more completely into the quagmire of civil war.
The Mononobe clan is a radical reformist. If they win this war and suppress the Soga clan, the only one who can compete with them, then the Japanese country will develop according to the normal historical trajectory and transition from slavery to feudalism.
This is obviously something Su Chen doesn't want to see.
Therefore, the Mononobe clan absolutely cannot win!
And the second step of his plan lies with the Japanese king!
The current king of Japan has been living a very miserable life just a few years after taking office. He has countless ways to make him obedient.
In fact, the origin of this Japanese king whose name Su Chen didn't even know is not trivial.
He is a descendant of Emperor Suiko, the first queen in Japanese history.
Tuigu had a great influence on the Japanese state. It was she who made the decision to send envoys to the Sui Dynasty.
It was also from that time that Japan, a barbaric country, gradually began to develop.
However, Tuiku was a very conceited person with a great desire for power.
At the end of her reign, she was already seventy-five years old and all her old teeth had fallen out, but she still refused to let go of any power.
This also led to the direct disintegration of the Japanese kingdom after her death, and the successor king had no prestige at all.
If it weren't for his bloodline, I'm afraid it would still be a question whether this great king would be alive now.
In less than two years, he had been sidelined by the Mononobe clan and the Soga clan. He watched helplessly as the two parties fought outside the imperial capital. However, as the orthodox successor of the emperor, he could not do anything.
For this kind of person, Su Chen can do whatever he wants!
In Su Chen's plan, if the Japanese country wants to maintain its current backward situation, the king must have a sense of presence.
It’s not enough to just be a tool!
Su Chen wants to support him to become a puppet king and make him confront the two major clans, forming a three-legged situation.
As a result, the Japanese country will always be in a state of melee, and the reforms that should have occurred will be shattered.
The next day, things progressed exactly as Su Chen predicted.
Not long after the sun had risen, the king of Japan, accompanied by more than a dozen people, walked towards the battleship.
After Lao Zhuang saw it, he quickly came to report to Su Chen.
"Master, the Japanese are here!"
Su Chen hadn't gotten up yet, so he waved his hand impatiently and said, "Let them wait outside."
Lao Zhuang nodded in agreement, turned around and walked out of the cabin. Following Su Chen's instructions, he placed these people outside the battleship.
Regarding this arrangement, the Japanese king did not dare to show the slightest displeasure, but instead nodded and agreed.
He had witnessed the whole process of the bombing outside Fujiwara Kyobei yesterday.
That kind of terrifying scene scared him so much that he couldn't sleep all night.
To him, Tianwei is nothing more than that!
Those things are definitely not something humans can compete with!
According to reports from his men, the flag in the sky yesterday was exactly the same as the flag on the big ship in front of me.
Obviously, the owner of this big ship is the mastermind behind all this!
Although he didn't know who this person was, he knew that he was definitely not someone he could afford to offend.
Therefore, he kept his attitude very humble.
With the ability of the owner of this ship, it would be easy to bulldoze the entire Fujiwara Kyo, so naturally he would not dare to act arrogantly at all.
Just like that, the King of Japan stood outside the battleship like a child who had done something wrong, not to mention feeling very uneasy in his heart.
An hour later, Su Chen finally got up.
After he washed up and ate on the deck, he asked Lao Zhuang to bring these Japanese people over.
After a while, everyone was brought over.
The king of Japan was quite discerning, so he specially brought two people who knew Tang language to be the translators.
Seeing them coming, Su Chen didn't even raise his head and asked casually: "Who are you?"
The king of the Japanese country chatted a lot, and the translator behind him said in Tang language: "This is our filial king of the Japanese country."
Be filial to the king?
Hearing these four words, Su Chen looked up at him in surprise.
This name is quite clever.
Seeing Su Chen looking over, King Filial Piety muttered a lot more. Before he could be translated, Su Chen waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, no need to say anything more, I'll just ask you, if I give you
Provide a batch of weapons and armor, can you assemble an army?"
After listening to the translation, King Xiaoshun nodded in confusion.
This Tang Dynasty man wants to provide him with weapons?
Su Chen waved to Lao Zhuang and said, "Take them to the cabin to have a look."
Lao Zhuang led the dubious King Xiaoshun and his entourage to the cabin filled with inferior weapons.
The cabin door had just been opened, and just by taking a glance at it, King Xiaoshun felt his head was buzzing!
This is the first time since he was born that he has seen so many weapons and armors!
If there is anyone who wants these weapons most among the Japanese people today, it must be King Xiaoxun!
As a member of the royal family, he was manipulated by his own ministers.
Although he dare not say it with his mouth, he hates the Mononobe clan and the Soga clan deeply in his heart. He dreams of having an army of his own!
