() Two days is very short, but it is enough to change a lot of things. For example, a little fat man who wants to go deep into the Japanese pirate island with the army no longer makes a fuss about continuing to go north. The reasons given by Nan Juyi are also very practical. Li Zicheng and others
People are rogues who haunt the wilderness, killing people and stealing goods, and they are bandits who kidnap and extort money. Even if everyone in the world knows where these scourges come from, so what? As long as the Ming court does not admit it, it is definitely a rumor! But if the general guards and the
If the soldiers from Lu Shanji's tribe joined in, the situation would be completely different. At the very least, people would accuse the Ming Empire of being as unreasonable as its Western allies.
Zhu Youcong, who was of noble birth, had royal blood, and was a general of the Ming Dynasty, also believed that it was true. You must know that China has been a country of etiquette since ancient times. Although there has long been a saying that soldiers and bandits are a family, but when people act
He would always find some fig leaf to cover up, and it was rare to see someone who acted so blatantly like him. So he had to be obedient and not cause trouble for his brother, let alone let the Ming Dynasty court take the blame for him!
Of course, just because Zhu Youcong did not go north with the army does not mean that he will stay in Xiaguan Port to fish and eat seafood. Although no one knows why he hates the Japanese pirates so much and must destroy them quickly, but Nan Juyi and others at least know that if they do not
If you follow this little monster's wishes and make him cause a big disturbance on the Japanese island, then no one can even think about a comfortable life...
Fortunately, the Japanese pirates in this era are not very capable, but they are more likely to cause trouble than in another time and space or hundreds of years later. It doesn't take much effort to find an excuse to deal with them. There is no need to even mention the old story of suppressing bandits.
After learning that the Ming Dynasty finally sent troops to the Japanese island and that the leading general was General Zhenguo, with whom they had a close friendship, the Western allies sent a complaint filled with blood and tears, asking the Ming Dynasty to seek justice for them.
Western allies? Aren’t they busy attacking Tianzhu? How come they still have the time to reach out to the Japanese islands? Have they eaten the heart of a bear or the courage of a leopard, and dared to come to Ming’s door to point fingers? Aren’t they afraid that they would have already
The little fat guy who had a backup plan bit them down to the bone?
In fact, this is really a misunderstanding. The big sesame cakes painted by Zhu Youcong are enough for these Western allies to jointly eat for decades. People do this because they are afraid that this little fat man will not find enough excuses. So.
Are they just reciprocating the favor? Of course, it is not ruled out that the smart Sir Roy and others want to take this opportunity to hold back the main force of the Ming Dynasty, so that they have time to sneak across the demarcated boundary line to make some extra money. But no matter what,
The Western allies did a good thing this time. At least they found an excuse for Zhu Youcong to send troops in an upright and honest manner!
The excuses don’t seem to be very accurate, but they are all telling the truth. Although Japan had strictly banned the spread of Catholicism as early as the Toyotomi Hideyoshi era and required all residents not to believe in this foreign cult, Ming’s Western allies could
I didn’t say anything. If you don’t want to be deceived, then don’t deceive. It’s been like this for decades. Just when others were about to forget that there was a Japanese island in the East, Tokugawa Ieyasu jumped up. In order to strengthen foreign trade
This old turtle first appointed the British as his trade advisers and then quietly relaxed the isolation policy, allowing those devout shepherds to enter the Japanese islands to develop believers.
If this is a good thing, what is there to complain about? But the bad thing is that Tokugawa Ieyasu is too smart. He actually saw through the dangers of cultural invasion, and ordered the "ban on religion" again and ordered Matsukura Shigemasa on Kyushu Island to fight against the master.
The Lamb carried out cruel and bloody repression. Although in the Ming Dynasty, it was normal for him to do what he wanted to do as the actual leader of the island, but the arrogant Western gentlemen did not think so. They felt insulted and insulted by others.
Acting like a monkey.
"Tell me, what are you going to do this time?" Zhu Youcong has always been kind to others. Since it is an ally who has made such a thoughtful request, of course he must try his best to satisfy it.
"Beat him first!" Zentsugu has been holding his breath ever since he joined the Japanese army. Just because he is a regular soldier, the treatment he enjoys is not as good as that of the Tatars. If he doesn't seize the opportunity this time, he will pick one first.
With a slightly tougher opponent, wouldn’t the more than a year of training be in vain?
"reason?"
As an excellent commander, Lu Shanji will of course have his own ideas, but what he says feels wrong. "First, his home is close to where we store troops, so it will be easier for our troops to beat them after they cross the sea! Second, his house is close to where we store troops."
Second, the name of his family is too unpleasant. I will find it unpleasant to my ears!"
"Stop talking nonsense here! Let's be serious!" These veteran gangsters are getting more and more outrageous. It's still reasonable to say that people who live close by should be beaten, but Zhu Youcong doesn't think that Dayou's house is better than behind.
The Ouchi family is unpleasant to hear.
"General, please take a look!" Just make a joke once in a while. Lu Shanji quickly returned to normal and pointed at the map and said: "Now the Zheng family pirates have been blocked by us at the port and dare not cross the thunder pool. Go early and go to them late.
The ships are all ours. But look at the Shimazu family who have been standing still. It is possible that they were deceived by us earlier. But now our troops have landed. According to the news sent back by that boy Li Zicheng
It is said that even the Takeda family on Anyun's side has begun to gather troops to fight against our army. But they haven't made any move yet. Is this normal?"
"What do you mean..." Zhu Youcong really never thought about this problem. He had been immersed in his own imagination, thinking that his enemies would have to stay at home and wait for him to come and beat him up.
"This turtle has never brought back their fleet in Ryukyu. He must be holding back his energy and wants to suddenly stab our army in the back when we are slack. Even if he cannot pose a threat to our transport fleet, he still can't.
We need to re-capture and cut off our supplies!" In another time and space, Lu Shanji was famous for his character and knowledge, but it is really not true to say that a guy who can be regarded as the right-hand man by Sun Chengzong does not understand military affairs.
possible.
"You mean they are quietly accumulating strength, and when we think they have successfully attracted the enemy's attention, they will use a trick to confuse our army?" The reason why Zhu Youcong has always regarded this old guy who is nearly sixty years old as a new talent is that he
He has never been affected by fixed thinking and is very good at summarizing other people's experiences. It's like when someone failed the provincial examination at the age of nineteen, instead of going home and memorizing by rote, he searched for the annotations of various experts to find his own answer.
"That's right!" It seems that the little fat man has not been dazzled by the victory. He can still correctly understand the current situation with a little reminder. Lu Zentsu continued: "If our army directly attacks the Hizen-Dagawa family, the sea route will be very difficult to block it."
It is difficult to pose a sufficient threat to them, but it gives them enough time to prepare. Attacking Otomo's house is completely the opposite, because it is connected by land, and they have to send troops no matter how hastily..."
"Then how do you plan to use your troops?"
"Split the troops into two groups!" Although Lu Shanji was dissatisfied that the post of Ping-Japanese Pioneer he had finally obtained had become a decoration, he did not intend to care about anything at this time. "General, you will be in charge of this eastern front battlefield and destroy it.
The Otomo family attracted the attention of the Shimazu family and thus covered our troops to go straight into Nagasaki Port and seize the Zheng family's pirate fleet, then stab the turtle grandson in the back from the sea!"
"Why me again?" Although Zhu Youcong has fallen in love with the profession of bait, he always feels a bit embarrassed when he is always being called around by his subordinates.
"Because you are fat and have big goals!" Of course, Lu Shanji just thought about this in his heart and did not dare to say it out. He could only lie and said: "General, you also know that the general has only so many people.
, and are not good at positional combat. The key to mobilizing the Shimazu family to rush into the battle is the word "quick". Only by destroying the Otomo family at a speed they could not imagine can this turtle grandson jump out regardless..."
"How fast?" According to the information handed over by the Western allies, the samurai the Otomo family can assemble, plus the Ashugaru, are about 100,000 troops. To say that so many people on the Japanese island can be considered a force that cannot be underestimated.
But in Zhu Youcong's opinion, the cold weapons in the opponent's hands plus a few primitive artillery are really not enough for fun.
Lu Shanji's eyes flashed fiercely, and he said fiercely: "The faster, the better! And not only must it be fast, but it must also be ruthless. Didn't our Western allies give you a good excuse? Anyway, you were also thrown cold water by Luo Shengun at the beginning.
Just kill all the so-called heretics in the name of safeguarding your religious beliefs and preaching the gospel to save all sentient beings! In this way, Luo Shengun and the others have taken the blame for you, and even Shimadzu
Everyone knows that once you enter their territory, you will turn the place upside down! This forces them to deploy heavy troops to take strict precautions against you!"
"That's no problem. It just so happened that the archaeological team just received the order to go south. Let's beat people and let them add some seasoning to the Japanese pirates!" Those gold-touching captains who were thrown to Liaodong by the Ministry of Punishment now have unified numbers.
The Royal Archaeological Research Team of the Ming Dynasty enjoys the treatment of ninth-grade officials, and their salaries are directly paid by the Ming Dynasty court.
"I'm afraid that's not enough!" Shika Zentsugi certainly believed in the ability of those scourges, but he believed that just doing this was not enough to push the Shimazu family to a dead end. If they couldn't beat them, they would kneel down and beg for mercy, declare surrender and allow them to preach.
If a soldier enters the Japanese island, won't he have nothing to do? "As far as the general knows, Zhang Tianlin should have also arrived in Bangzi Kingdom and is preparing to set off?"
"That's what happened!" No one knows why Zhang Tianlin has that strange problem. Although she restrained herself after joining the New Army and did not dare to randomly demolish other people's temples, she has been complained many times that this guy has religious discrimination.
He was always picky about those monks and nuns. In order not to affect the image of the army, Zhu Youcong had no choice but to incorporate him into the overseas legion.
"Then please ask the general to urgently order him to join your Eastern Front Corps. Wherever he passes, all the rags used by the Japanese pirates for sacrifice will be demolished, and all the bald heads on the Japanese islands will be handed over to him!"
"Lord Lu, you are really not honest enough in what you do!" Nan Juyi, who had been immersed in studying just now, couldn't bear it anymore. He wanted to say that he had originally thought up the last trick. But now he was told by Lu Shanji.
Come out, isn’t this blatant infringement!
"Second wife, didn't you say you want to maintain the righteous image of our Ming army? What's the point of transferring Zhang Tianlin now?" Zhu Youcong didn't care who came up with this idea. But he was afraid of letting those who were supposed to
The rogue bandits who went north joined the regular army's attack line and adversely affected their reputation.
"General, look at what you said. I dare to guarantee with my head that if you really do this, our Western allies will definitely be grateful and praise you so much!" Nan Juyi saw that Zhu Youcong still looked confused and reminded:
"Have you forgotten our excuse for this war? To protect our faith, what does faith mean to our Western allies? That's not to just listen to them and let everyone be the lamb of that naked old man.
?So if you go too far on the Japanese islands, the whole world, except the Japanese pirates themselves, will speak for us and praise you for your great job!"
"Then you mean to ask me to make wedding clothes for others?" Thinking of this, Zhu Youcong might be a little unhappy.
"Whether I want to make a wedding dress or not depends on your mood. If you are happy, just let them come to preach. Anyway, there won't be many people left here in the future!" Blinking, Nan Juyi said with a smile: "Never mind you.
Don’t you think those Japanese women wearing the outfits of foreign nuns are particularly charming?”
"Ah?" Is this okay? Zhu Youcong seriously doubted whether Nan Juyi was affected by a certain time and space turbulence above the Japanese island, and actually played the uniform temptation in the Ming Dynasty! And the target was probably the Ming Dynasty.
The dynasty’s million-strong army?
"After what you said, Jing Sishou, I seem to find it somewhat interesting!" The serious matters that need to be discussed have been finished, and the old boy Lu Shanji also said with bright eyes: "Remember to pick a few good ones for us.
Keep it. After we deal with the Zheng family pirates, rescue the Ryukyu King from the control of the Japanese pirates, and cut off the Shimazu family's retreat, we can try something new while our tigress is not around!"
These two crooked old men, don't they know that the jealousy of General Zhenguo's family is in the army? Even though Zhu Youcong didn't have the intention, he really couldn't listen anymore and shouted: "Get out" (to be completed)
