Chapter five hundred and thirty seventh musket

Night falls slowly, and the streets of Kyoto are under martial law.

Several people entered Yuan Yizhong's home with nervous expressions. As soon as they entered, the door was quickly and tightly closed, and everything revealed an indescribable strange sign.

"Master Yuan, Master Ping, this is Master Song Baocai." Chifeng Xuancheng pointed at a thirty-year-old Ming Dynasty officer behind him and said.

"Sir Song, you've had a hard journey." Yuan Yizhong said politely.

Song Baocai smiled lightly: "It's not hard work. I will definitely go to a place where there is money to be made."

"I heard that you can provide us with muskets, right?" Yuan Yoshizada asked tentatively.

Song Baocai nodded: "There are my people outside and a box. I would like to ask you two adults to move over and see the gift I gave you."

Yuan Yizhong, He Ping and Jiang Cheng looked at each other, stood up together, and followed Song Baocai out...

A box was opened, and ten muskets were neatly placed there. General Yoshitaka Minamoto's eyes suddenly lit up.

Song Baocai picked up a musket: "You two adults may not know much about our Tiger Guards. All the guns in the Tiger Guards have model numbers, and this is the latest 'Fu'-class gun. You have never had this kind of musket."

I have seen it, its firing time is short, its range is long, and its power is huge. A hundred people using such a musket can destroy enemies several times their size."

Minamoto Yoshitaka and Shojo Cheng were surprised when they heard this.

"I'll show you two adults. I just don't know how good the sound insulation is here?" Song Baocai asked.

Yuan Yizhong said: "Please rest assured, Mr. Song, no matter what you do here, it will not be spread."

Song Baocai had a target brought in, loaded it with gunpowder, and stood fifty steps away. He took aim briefly, and after a while, a gunshot sounded like "boom".

Minamoto Yoshitaka and Shosei Minamoto were almost deafened by the shock, and the loud noise of the muskets startled them.

The smoke cleared and Song Baocai let go

He fired the gun with a smile on his face: "Two adults, please go check the results."

The target was brought up. Minamoto Yoshitaka and General Heiji were shocked instantly. There was a big hole in the target from the musket. It would be unimaginable if this shot hit a human body.

Now, they finally know why the Tiger Guards are invincible... They also finally know why the Japanese army is so vulnerable in front of these Tiger Guards...

"A hundred people using such muskets can destroy enemies several times their size!" Song Baocai's words were best verified here.

Yuan Yizhong couldn't wait: "Master Song, how many such guns do you have?"

"I can offer you three hundred." Song Baocai said with a smile: "But this is a dangerous job involving beheading. Once discovered, my whole family may not be able to save their lives, so I have to decide the price."

Ping Jiangcheng picked up a musket and played with it carefully: "What price do you want?"

"Two hundred taels of silver per rod." Song Baocai said a large amount in one mouth: "The price is indeed a bit high, but this is also compensation for me."

"There is no problem with the price. As long as it can fulfill our dream, we can accept any price." Ping Jiangcheng put down the musket: "But what about the delivery method?"

Song Baocai laughed: "I know you still don't trust me, you are afraid that I will take your money but not deliver the goods. Let's do this. At this time tomorrow, I will personally escort the goods here."

Ping Jiangcheng nodded. Yes, he did still feel uneasy about this Ming Dynasty man, but since the other party was so happy, there was nothing to worry about.

After inviting Song Baocai into the room again, and drinking tea for a while, Minamoto Yoshitaka finally asked the question he was most concerned about: "Master Song, I heard that you know the time when the emperor will abdicate and leave the palace?"

"I know." Song Baocai said calmly: "But it also requires a lot of money, even more than the price of a musket."

"Tell me what you want, as long as I can rescue His Majesty the Emperor. I can agree to any conditions you have."

"Prepare one thousand taels of gold." Song Baocai said the same amount as when he bribed himself: "Of course I must also make necessary preparations for my own safety. I'm worried that once I deliver the musket, you won't give me the money.

What if you kill me and silence me instead? So after all the muskets and silver are delivered tomorrow, I will tell you what you want."

These words not only did not make Minamoto Yoshitaka and Shouchi peaceful, but made them feel more at ease.

This is a greedy and cautious Ming Dynasty person. Since he has thought of this, he must be determined to betray Huben Wei.

Song Baocai took a sip of tea, then stood up and said with a smile: "You two adults, please wait for my good news tomorrow."

Song Baocai left, and Yuan Yizhong and General Heping let out a long breath at the same time. The problems that troubled them seemed to disappear instantly, and they saw hope again.

The reason why the Ming Dynasty was able to seize Japan so quickly was not only their sharp firearms, but also the willingness of a large number of Japanese traitors to collude with them.

And now it's the Japanese's turn.

Use the spear of the son and the shield of the attack! How the people of the Ming Dynasty treated Japan, Japan will now return these things to them! Soon, the people of the Ming Dynasty will eat the bitter fruits they have sown!

Minamoto Yoshitaka and Shouchi firmly believe that Amaterasu will protect Japan and Japan will not be destroyed in their hands.

All the people of the Ming Dynasty will be driven out of Japan one by one...

...

An operation to rescue the emperor was in full swing, but at this time, Ding Yunyi had no thoughts at all and was paying attention to the coming turmoil.

Too many things are waiting for him, such as the post-war disposition of Japan.

"I am going to turn Japan into a province of ours." Ding Yunyi expressed his thoughts in front of his subordinates: "Japan Province. What do you think of this name?"

The subordinates all laughed. Wu Liehou was so courageous. First, he sent troops without permission from the court and destroyed Japan in one fell swoop. Now he wants to include Japan in his territory without going through the court.

But it doesn't matter. The Battle of Japan has well tested the combat effectiveness of the Tiger Guards. Now, no matter what situation they encounter, they have the confidence to face it.

Ding Yunyi looked at Su Yang, who had just arrived in Kyoto, and said: "Mr. Su Yang, I feel very ashamed of you. You helped me guard Satsuma Domain for a long time, but I never promoted you."

"Is the Marquis planning to promote me? Su Yang Qiuyuan thanked the Marquis." Su Yang Qiuyuan replied with a smile.

Ding Yunyi laughed loudly: "Yes. I am ready to promote you. I want to promote you to the governor of Japan."

Su Yang Qiuyuan was stunned for a moment. Originally he was just joking, but who would have thought that it would turn out to be true. Su Yang Qiuyuan said in a daze: "Master Marquis, don't make such a joke. How can a governor of a province not be appointed by the court?"

Can it be done?”

"I don't know how many things I do without the permission of the imperial court." Ding Yunyi said nonchalantly: "If everything has to be approved by the imperial court, then we don't have to do anything. Su Yang Qiu Yuan, you

Just be at peace as you, the governor of Japan, don't have to think about anything else, I will be there to support you when the sky falls."

"Yes!" Since it was Wu Liehou's decision, Su Yang Qiuyuan no longer had any worries.

"Qi Yumu, appoint you as the governor of Kyoto to assist Governor Su Yang in governing Japan!"

"yes!"

"Bao Juhua, appoint you as the deputy general of the Huben Guards stationed in Japan. Zhang Xianxuan, appoint you as the deputy general of the Huben Guards stationed in the navy. Wang Wei, appoint you as the deputy general of the Huben Guards stationed in Japan." Ding Yunyi made his appointments one by one.

The subordinates whose names were called kept responding. At this time, everyone had the same idea in their minds. Wu Liehou appointed governors and deputy generals at will. This was an open act of rebellion!

After all the appointments were finished, Ding Yunyi said slowly: "I appoint officials without the permission of the court. You must think that I am going to rebel, right? In fact, you are all wrong. I don't want to rebel, and I never have.

I have never thought about rebelling against the Ming Dynasty, no matter how the court treated me before. But why would I do that? Time waits for no one."

The generals of Huben Guard didn't know how many times they heard Wu Liehou say the words "time waits for no one". But they never understood what it meant.

Ding Yunyi did not explain to his subordinates: "It is now the thirteenth year of Chongzhen. I can't predict that in three or four years, the situation in the world will change drastically. By then, we will be the only ones to support the crisis. The enemy we have to face

, far more powerful than Japan. If we don’t take advantage of these few years to rapidly expand ourselves, it will be too late to do anything.”

He didn't want to share too many details with his subordinates anymore.

What will happen in three or four years, only you know in the world...

"Master Marquis, I still have a worry in my heart." Su Yang Qiuyuan, the newly appointed governor of Japan, said cautiously: "We have just occupied Japan, and the people's hearts are unstable. If we suddenly turn it into our territory, it will inevitably cause resistance from the Japanese.

How should we deal with it when that time comes?”

Ding Yunyi was very satisfied with the other party's question: "Governor Su Yang really considered the matter carefully and thoughtfully. When it comes to newly occupied areas, the people there only have two reactions, one is to obey, and the other is to resist. Later, it was even greater than the former. How to deal with resistance?

What to do? There are only two ways. One is to eliminate them physically, and the other is to eliminate them spiritually! I don’t need to say more about how to eliminate them physically. How to eliminate them mentally? This generation of Japanese is

There is no hope. We can start from their next generation and instill in them a concept from an early age: Japan belongs to Ming Dynasty, and the term Japanese will no longer exist from now on, or the real Japanese.

We need to give them a sense of identity and belonging. Su Yang, in my opinion, spiritual annihilation is much more severe than physical annihilation."

Su Yang Qiuyuan nodded silently, he understood what Wu Liehou meant.

Ding Yunyi calmed down: "I'm not worried about Japan. There are still more than three years to go. What can we do? One is to do everything possible to expand ourselves, and the other is to do everything possible to expand our territory. Luzon

, Japan, Siam, and Burma have now become ours, but these are not enough. There are still many places around us where the Thais are still entrenched. Our former vassal countries are waiting for us to rescue them!"

Upon hearing the word "rescue", all the generals smiled knowingly.

“Expand our influence in all directions!” Ding Yunyi’s words were heroic: “In Malacca, in Batavia, and in many, many places, we must spread our influence as far as possible.

Neither the Red Yi nor the Folangji people should occupy those countries that we once had, and now we have the power to take back these places!"

His eyes fell on Cai Jiuzhou and Ye Dahai: "What do you think?"

Cai Jiuzhou and Ye Dahai understood immediately: "I am willing to go to war for the Marquis!"

"You are not going on an expedition for me, but for my Ming Dynasty!" Ding Yunyi suddenly raised his voice: "We have Japan and places like Luzon to support us to provide manpower and material resources for our expedition. This will not harm us.

The overall interests of Fujian. Cai Jiuzhou, I appoint you as the commander-in-chief of the Malacca Expeditionary Force; Ye Dahai, I appoint you as the commander-in-chief of the Batavia Expeditionary Force!"

"Yes, I am willing to listen to the Lord Hou's orders!" Cai Jiuzhou and Ye Dahai became excited instantly.

There is no more glorious mission than this, and there is no more exciting thing than this. The honor of a soldier is to constantly open up territory for his country.

"Some people will say that I am a little crazy. After all, we have just acquired Japan. What we need most is to recuperate and recuperate instead of constantly fighting around. However, I don't think so." Ding Yunyi was in a daze when he said this:

"We always regard ourselves as a superior country. The Taixi people have occupied our former vassal country, but we don't care. As long as the enemy does not attack our homeland, it is fine. However, no one has discovered the power of the Taisi people.

They are gradually surrounding us and oppressing our living space. At present, the Ganrasi people have been defeated by us, and Japan has been conquered by us. Those Hongyi and Folangji people are in panic all day long, and they are the weakest.

Time. If we give up such an opportunity, we will become sinners of history. We should not be such sinners!"

We should not be such sinners!

When Ding Yunyi said these words, no one could change his determination.

There is not much time left. He will use this short time to strengthen his power and open up a new territory, and then use this huge territory to reappear in front of everyone! Piao Tian Literature registered members recommend this work
