The emperor said that he could order two more people. As the name suggests, after everyone appointed the commander-in-chief, the general could select two more people from among the people as his subordinates and take them out to fight the Tang army.
After the emperor said these words...
In an instant, the faces of all the warriors in the "Chaotang" turned pale again...
But this time, the emperor smiled slightly again.
I could vaguely notice that there were many samurai gnashing their teeth below... but this was also the reason why the emperor smiled.
"Why don't you choose? We, the Japanese country, have relatively few troops, so we need extra troops to fight against the Tang army. There is nothing we can do about it, hahahahaha..."
And when the emperor added this, the warriors below... their faces became extremely pale.
Then... maybe he was intoxicated by the reaction caused by this sentence, or maybe he wanted to strengthen the impact of this sentence, the emperor then added, "Everyone, Tang Jun has arrived..."
For a moment, the faces of the warriors present turned even more ugly.
Then...
As time passed bit by bit, the ugly faces gradually changed from the many samurai below to the emperor himself.
The emperor's face began to darken.
This time, it was different from the dark expression on Xiaoye's face when he ran away from the scene before. Instead, it was mixed with a deeper... something that also belonged to the dark complexion.
But this time, the warriors below didn't even look at the emperor's face any more. They just buried their heads lower, although... they all looked at the ground with expressions filled with indignation.
The emperor sighed softly, his eyes a little wandering.
Looking at the warriors in the field, he suddenly smiled, but this time his smile looked a little miserable.
"It seems that everyone is very peace-loving... That's great. But the Tang army has already arrived, and there is no peace in the Japanese country. Since everyone has no choice, let's discuss how to feed the Tang country. Come..."
"In exchange for peace."
The emperor said the last four words with an unkind expression, and then his expression turned dull. Although he said "Let's discuss it," his expression clearly showed that he didn't want to discuss anything.
He only glanced at Ono and waved his hand impatiently, "Ono-kun, don't you have any ashigaru anymore? Then go to the palace and feed the horses."
Ono was so happy when he heard this that he rushed up and disappeared into the court hall.
And as the emperor's words fell, all the warriors present had extremely angry expressions on their faces for some unknown reason, looking at the ground and gnashing their teeth...
It seemed that they were extremely angry at what the emperor said about "satisfying the Tang Dynasty", but for some unknown reason, many samurai showed relaxed expressions of relief...
And then the emperor's face turned completely dark.
"From today on...all the gold and silver treasures obtained from transactions with pirates must be handed over, and I will hand them over to the Tang State. Everyone...don't rush to say that the Tang State has lost its etiquette and has no qualifications. I just want to
Let me ask you... apart from this method, do you have any other ideas?"
Before the group of warriors below could object, the emperor had already interrupted everyone's objections with a dark face.
The warriors below all looked dull after hearing this, and then the look of resentment on their faces became even stronger.
Suddenly, the atmosphere above the Japanese "Chaotang" was like a dragon entering the sea, and the wind was surging!
But in the end, an older samurai suddenly said tremblingly, "The emperor is right, we and the Sugami family are willing to give up the treasure..."
When the old warrior said this, the other warriors looked at the old warrior in surprise.
The old samurai did not appeal to others, nor did he express his feelings. He simply expressed his agreement with the emperor's statement, and then became extremely quiet, his face looking at nothing but the ground.
But there was a hint of joy in the emperor's eyes.
Sure enough... Soon, a samurai appeared, as if he had pharyngitis... He said in a difficult voice, "Our Sawada family is also willing to give up the treasure..."
As soon as the two forerunners appeared, the joy in the emperor's eyes became even stronger.
Sure enough, soon... It seemed that there was an organized response to the joy in the emperor's eyes. One by one, the samurai expressed their intention to take out the treasure, and the process ended quickly - because the remaining half of the samurai saw so many
Everyone came up and said they agreed, so he decisively announced that he agreed to give up his family's treasures!
In this way...
The emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Everyone is willing, that's good..."
At this moment, there was still a deep disappointment and a sense of failure in the emperor's eyes, but there was more of a relaxed look.
After sending these warriors away, a solemn look of worry slowly appeared in the emperor's eyes.
I don’t know if these treasures can bring satisfaction to the Tang State...
…
But it was said that Chai Shao successfully landed in Japan.
And after casually killing a group of Japanese pirates, they immediately started to set up camp near the coast of the Japanese pirates.
Don't take the possible appearance of the Japanese army at all!
but……
As time went on, Chai Shao also began to feel strange.
More than ten days have passed since we arrived in Japan, landed ashore, and set up camp.
Since the first group of Japanese pirates can come, it means that...their central military camp, or small "imperial court" is not close, but it is certainly not too far away - no matter how weird these Japanese people are, they may
To die, but it is impossible to go all the way out to die.
Then...this question arises.
Since the main force of the Japanese army is not far from here, then...why don't they come?
That's right.
When building the camp, Chai Shao had already conveniently left a trap in one direction of the camp, which was what Li Sheng said... "a flaw."
Chai Shao thought about it and made a careful design. A gate was opened on the north side of the camp (the army landed from the east coast and sat east to west), and outside the gate, a row of gates were built on the wild path near the camp.
Thatched shed.
Every day, a group of forbidden troops, ranging in number from 500 to 1,000, would go out from the north gate to bathe and play in the sea, and then gather in the hut on the way back to make noise and drink... Every day, only
When you go out, you have to have a good drink and have a fight to make a big fuss. And at night, there are hundreds of "fortified soldiers" gambling, drinking and having fun in the thatched shed, "
They don’t take the defense of the camp seriously at all.”
All this of course...
There is no doubt that it is the script arranged by Chai Shao.
And... there are more than a dozen tanks of clean water stored in this thatched shed, and surrounding the thatched shed is a circle of hidden traps dug into the ground...
