Chapter 45: Looking for someone (2)

The two were walking and chatting, and occasionally laughter came out, which looked very different from the time they first met.

When you pass through the outer city of Kyoto, you will suddenly see the light when you enter the inner city.

The inner city of Kyoto was built on the mountain. The green mountains in front of me were majestic, surrounded by moats, the gate of the palace at the foot of the mountain was magnificent and thick, and several stone buildings painted with white gray on the side of the mountain stood.

"It's not easy to attack!"

He Guangyi looked at the Miyagi in Kyoto and thought to himself.

Those exquisite stone buildings are located in the mountains and look beautiful, but those who know the military know how dangerous it is. One man is to pass through thousands of men, and archers can attack the invading enemies without any dead ends in the stone buildings.

The attacker is originally a reward for his merits. Even with artillery, he cannot adjust the angle to attack the opponent. Moreover, the outer wall of the inner city is right by the moat, and it is all made of huge rocks, flat and smooth, and there are countless watchtowers on the city wall.

This is not a city, it is clearly a military fortress.

"Your Excellency, see how I see the Japanese city-state?" Ashikaga Yoshimoto said with a smile.

"Well, it's a bit extraordinary!" He Guangyi commented with a bit of arrogance unique to the people of the Celestial Empire, "But compared with my Ming Dynasty capital, haha..."

"How dare you compare with the capital of the Celestial Dynasty!" Ashikaga Yoshiman said, "I heard that the capital of the Celestial Dynasty used millions of civilians during its construction. I really want to go and take a look in my lifetime!"

At this time, the magnificent inner city gate was slowly opened by the warriors.

There were hundreds of warriors who knelt down along the way.

"Please live in my mansion." Ashikaga Yoshiman dismounted first and smiled, "I have prepared Nimaruyuan for you, a quiet and exquisite single house." As he said that, he bowed slightly, "I will lead the way for you!"

He Guangyi smiled slightly, followed the other party, looking around with his eyes constantly, remembering the shape of the inner city of Kyoto and everything he saw.

After walking for a while, a house surrounded by flowers and towering ancient trees appeared in front of me.

The temple is exquisite and elegant, making people feel relaxed and happy.

"I wonder if you are satisfied?" Ashikaga Yoshima and others stopped and asked with a smile.

He Guangyi looked around, "After the new rain in the empty mountain, the weather is late and autumn comes. Here is very elegant, General Ashikaga Yoshi's kindness, and I am grateful to you!"

"Is it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar?" Ashikaga Yoshimoto smiled, "You are here from afar, first wash and rest, and wait for me to hold a banquet to welcome you!" As he said that, he ordered a warrior behind him, "Entertainment of the Celestial Empire, please serve well and not be neglected!"

"Hayi!" The warrior bowed respectfully.

~~~

Let’s talk about it, Ashikaga Yoshima said goodbye first and let He Guangyi settle his team down on his own.

He Guangyi brought a few confidants into the main hall. As soon as a few Japanese servants were about to come forward to serve, they were blocked and signaled to retreat from afar.

"Our people should pay attention to what they eat and drink. Do not understand things! "He Guangyi looked at the confidants in front of him and said, "Ashikaga Yoshiman is not easy to fool. Don't look at his respect on the surface, I'm afraid he hates us very much!"

"Restrain brothers, talk less in front of others. We are now in other people's places, and the Japanese are more familiar with Chinese. What other brothers say shouldn't be said will give them a handle!"

"Here!" Everyone knows the purpose of this trip and dare not be careless.

At this time, all the Japanese servants were driven away.

He Guangyi took off his python robe and threw himself on the ground. The white lining of the python robe has turned into a map. The above is He Guangyi's road situation here to investigate.

The cities along the way are sparsely marked. There are detailed numbers for the population and the height of the city. There are also villages along the way, where there are mountains, rivers, and even where there are wells, they have never fallen.

He Guangyi took the pen from his confidant and carefully outlined it on the map.

Their Jinyiwei is the emperor's personal army, and it is true that supervising all officials is just one of their work, but it is simply magnified infinitely.

The Jinyiwei also had the responsibilities of spying on military information, drawing maps to find out information and pretending to be meticulous. This kind of surveying and mapping was their specialty. Otherwise, when the Ming army had several Northern Expeditions, where did the map come from? Where did the guide come from?

It’s just that their Jinyiwei’s abilities have long been covered up by their evil reputation and no one knows them.

"We came from here, how many miles have we walked?"

"How many forks along the way, how many troops can be used to advance together?"

"How wide is the moat in the capital?"

“How high is the city wall?”

“How many watchtowers are there?”

"Count how many archers they have?"

The confidants answered one by one, and He Guangyi made serious notes, and his expression became more and more serious.

"The Japanese Japanese have been fighting for these years, and the construction of the city cannot be underestimated. These strategic highlands are occupied by their castles. Even if the army comes, they can only advance layer by layer!" He Guangyi put down his pen and scratched his head. "Their moats are all caused by living water. As long as there is food in the castle and there is no shortage of water to drink, there is no way to deal with them for a while."

Although the purpose of his trip was to provoke the relationship between the Japanese shogunate and the local daimyo, and to denounce the unjust intention of the shogunate, and to use this to provoke a civil war in Japan. However, in his heart, he had long regarded Japan as an imaginary enemy and was thinking about how to fight and win it.

"If you really fight, don't be so troublesome...ah!" Ji Gang, who had just become the Jinyiwei, said from the side.

"You said lightly!" He Guangyi cursed, "Then you said, how do you beat me?"

"Enter the city...!" Ji Gang said in a low voice, "What can I do if I have food and water? Set up a catapult outside, and die of rats, dogs, horses, and people... I didn't just die, I just picked those that were already smelly and had a bit rotten meat, and I threw them in with a catapult!"

"Hehe, throw as much as you want. If we don't need to attack, they will get sick by themselves!"

"What aren't our older generation in the Ming Dynasty doing this when fighting?"

"Or why just use fire!" Ji Gang continued, "Didn't you notice? The houses in Japan are all made of wood. Spray the city with hot tinder oil, pour it into the moat, and then burn him to the fire!"

"He can't burn him to death, he will choke him to death!" As he said that, Ji Gang smiled, "Or, before the war begins, we will send a memorial to poison him and poison his dogs in the wells in the city in Japan."

"Send elite troops to infiltrate and burn their grain warehouses and supplies warehouses directly to see what they can resist the Heavenly Army!"

He Guangyi looked at Ji Gang for a while and cursed, "You kid are so fucking bad!"
