They gave up their plan to attack Jilongshan, plunged into the South China Sea, and fled madly in the direction of Malacca...
It's not that Yan Bing didn't want to keep them, she tried her best and even brought out the "big killer". However, the other party had more than 70 warships and more than 30,000 soldiers armed with muskets and artillery. They were taking risks.
When it comes to saving people and master, Yan Bing will undoubtedly choose the latter.
People... there will be other ways to save them in the future...
But if the master does something bad because of this matter, she will never be able to forgive herself for the rest of her life...
So before the glycerin was about to run out, Yan Bing gave up the pursuit completely and turned to Jilong Mountain. When the fleet arrived at Keelung Port the next day, everyone took the battleship back to Nagasaki Port.
Let’s just say it was all in vain this time…
But they also destroyed most of the Dutch fleet.
But let’s talk about returning victoriously…
The strategic goals that we most wanted to achieve were not achieved.
Yan Bing is feeling sad at the moment...
How should I explain it to Wang Wenshuo after I go back!?
Leading the fleet and the Shenji Battalion to advance triumphantly, they are invincible...
But when she turned around, Her Royal Highness the Princess was kidnapped by the Dutch again...
unwise!!
Big mistake!!
She didn’t know what Wang Wenshuo would do after hearing the news! But the only consolation was that Shang Wuxie was at least still alive!!
And this is not a guess, but the old man actually sensed her presence with his qi machine!
In the old man's original words, his blood was smooth and his complexion was rosy. Apart from being shackled to the bottom of the boat, there were no new injuries or old marks on his body, and he seemed to have been well cared for... www.81zw.?
???m
So what kind of medicine are these Dutch people selling in their gourds!??
Yan Bing was almost thinking about it at the moment and couldn't find a reasonable explanation...
After all, how could she have guessed that in a small country like Ryukyu, there was a princess with a similar "elegant name" to her?
And it was precisely because of this similar "elegant name" that the other party regarded her as her... and captured her back to the Netherlands...
Think about it... Yan Bing couldn't think of it even if he thought about it!
In the end, I had to let out a long sigh and made the following three arrangements...
First,
He ordered people to immediately take a merchant ship to the Netherlands, convey the news of the capture of the Ryukyu Princess to the King of Chu, and ordered the King of Chu to use any means, even peace talks, even a huge ransom, to rescue Shang Wuxie safely.
return!
second,
The First Fleet and the Second Fleet were ordered to return to the Central Plains immediately. After replenishing supplies and ammunition, the First Fleet went directly to the Indian Ocean, capturing all the Dutch colonial ports in Southeast Asia and India along the way, and capturing as many Dutch prisoners as possible.
The next bargaining chip! The Second Fleet is mainly responsible for transporting ammunition and winter supplies, and then returns to Nagasaki...
The situation on the Japanese side is still going to be established...
She still needs to continue to take charge of the overall situation!
third,
It is also the most important section...
After calling back Uncle Zeng who was dormant in the south of the Yangtze River, her senior brothers will continue to keep an eye on Zijin Sect and Luomen Sect. Uncle Zeng will focus on every move of a person and not miss any detail.
…
That is King Qi...Wang Wenshuo!
Daliang is now in a critical period of transition from an agricultural country to an industrial country, and must not cause any more civil strife! She has even prepared to put Wang Wenshuo under house arrest until Shang Wuxie is safely rescued. If that is really necessary... she
No mercy!
Which is more important, national justice or personal grudges? Yan Bing has already made a decision in his heart...
After making all the arrangements, Yan Bing began to wait patiently...
The army pressed down on the border and settled in Nagasaki, just to wait for a result!
Waiting... Tokugawa Ieyasu... fulfill his original promise!
…………
……………………
One month later…
After Yan Bing forced Miyamoto Musashi to use his own handwriting to give Tokugawa Ieyasu the "ultimatum", Tokugawa Ieyasu's army, which had been holding back for many years and had been gathering momentum for many years, finally moved...
But the first thing he did when he marched was not to point his sword at Kyoto, nor at Osaka... but to join forces with Maeda Toshiie's army at Maihara Castle!
Yes……
Toyotomi Hideyoshi never thought in his wildest dreams that two of the five men he had sealed off in one hand would have colluded with each other and rebelled against him! He became so angry that he gathered all the remaining troops under his command, more than 70,000 men, and arrived in Kyoto to fight with Tokugawa.
Ieyasu's 40,000-strong army faces off!
Although Toyotomi Hideyoshi still had an absolute advantage in terms of numbers, his subordinates, Terumoto Mori, Kagekatsu Uesugi, and Hideie Ukita, were also coming with their armored soldiers, forming an encirclement on Tokugawa Ieyasu and Maeda Toshiie's army.
momentum.
But in terms of morale...compared to the Toyotomi Army, which suffered repeated heavy losses, Tokugawa Ieyasu's Army, which had been recuperating and ready to go, undoubtedly had the absolute upper hand!
In addition, Yan Bing continued to leak Toyotomi Hideyoshi's marching arrangements and routes to the Tokugawa Army through Xingtian Camp, which caused the two armies to become one-sided from the beginning. The Tokugawa Army advanced with great success and was not only ambushed one after another
Thirty thousand reinforcements came from behind, and completely drove the Toyotomi Army out of Kyoto at a very small cost! Huddled on the outskirts of Osaka, the two sides used Kyoto as the boundary, and once again fell into a stalemate...
Xuansi five years
The first day of the twelfth lunar month...
Emperor Gomizuo condescended to go out of the city in person to welcome Tokugawa Ieyasu into the city. As Tokugawa Ieyasu, who has always been a die-hard "royalist" and has been in-laws with the emperor's clan for many years, all the retainers who support the emperor and are loyal to the emperor are happy and rush to welcome him.
, everyone celebrated at the Kyoto Imperial Palace!
Everyone believes that this moment means that the emperor's power will reach its peak again, and that the prestige of Amaterasu can only be restored now!!
But no one noticed that accompanying Tokugawa Ieyasu to the Kyoto Imperial Palace, there were 5,000 soldiers and 3,000 iron cannon ashigaru... They only thought that this was Tokugawa Ieyasu's initial decision to set up Kyoto to protect his own safety.
Just a guarantee...
The celebration was held as scheduled. All Kyoto officials and Tokugawa Ieyasu's important ministers attended the celebration. They took off their armor, took off their shoes, took off their swords, bathed, changed clothes, and knelt down. All the etiquette was very thorough, and Tokugawa Ieyasu also did this.
In the process, he showed his sincerity and respect. Even Emperor Gomizuo was touched by the meticulous etiquette of each step and praised Tokugawa Ieyasu's "loyalty" many times...
until……
After everyone was seated, Tokugawa Ieyasu raised his glass in person, walked slowly in front of Emperor Gomizuo, knelt down and toasted, and gently sprinkled the wine on the ground...
For a moment, the smiles on everyone's faces froze at this moment...
And Tokugawa Ieyasu also shed two lines of tears when he put down his wine glass...
"Mr. Tokugawa, what you did... is...??"
Emperor Gomizuo's eyes widened and he looked at the "loyal minister" in front of him without blinking. He could not understand what the other party meant by what he did...
After Tokugawa Ieyasu heard this inquiry, he slowly closed his eyes, bowed to the ground, and whispered in a trembling voice: "The sinner...the Tokugawa clan...Ieyasu...send His Majesty the Emperor...home."
……sky……"
"Bang!"
The wine glass in Emperor Gomizuo's hand instantly fell from his hands and fell to the ground. He couldn't believe his ears!!
And the next scene made him unable to believe his eyes...
