Chapter 314 Li Shengzong: Zhu Qizhen, you don't talk about martial arts!
South China Sea waters.
It was a rare good weather, calm and sunny.
A fleet appeared without warning in the sight of the fishermen in Annan-Hue Prefecture. Dozens of huge warships, with flags flying, barbarically broke into the only port in Hue Prefecture.
Annan's garrison in Hue was originally small, but he was caught off guard by this army.
There is absolutely no way to resist.
They retreated decisively, and together with the troops from Xinping Prefecture, rushed outside Shunzhou again, but they were a little confused when faced with the army with bright armor.
It’s the Ming army!
What situation.
The Ming army suddenly appeared on the coast of Annan at this time. Was it going to invade?
But this is unreasonable.
It's just an army that goes deep alone, fearing death.
The Ming Dynasty is really going to invade. At this moment, the armies of Guangxi Dusi and Yunnan Prince Mu's Mansion should be fighting with the Annan border army. However, it is very quiet on the border.
But the leading general soon learned the truth.
Not the Ming Dynasty's great army.
It was the Mingbao Sect that established a small imperial court in Taiwan.
After being defeated by the Ming Prince Zhu Jianji in a battle, because Zhu Jianji left a large number of garrison troops in Taiwan, the Ming Baozong did not dare to fight back, so they fled to Annan by sea.
But how can Baozong have any consciousness of political asylum?
After leading the army to land, they directly stationed themselves in Huazhou, the capital of Hue Prefecture, and quickly took control of the defenses of all the cities within the jurisdiction, especially heavily stationed in Shunzhou.
Then he revised a letter and asked Annan officials to deliver it to Li Sicheng in Tokyo.
Annan's general was in a dilemma.
Let’s fight…
The Baozong brought more than 10,000 people, all of whom were elites from the Huilong camp who were proficient in water warfare. Whether it was a land battle or a naval battle, they might not be able to win. Don't fight. This is a naked invasion.
However, Baozong quickly convinced the generals of Annan's army not to hesitate.
Because he directly sent one hundred thousand taels to the general.
The general was also sensible and first withdrew his troops to Xinping Prefecture, and then immediately sent Baozong's letter to Tokyo at great speed.
…
…
Tokyo Royal Palace.
A young man of twenty-six or seven years, dressed in Chinese clothes, was sitting in a pavilion in a villa, holding a book of poems and shaking his head as he savored it. From time to time he would beat the rhythm with his hands and sing impromptu.
What is sung are all poems.
There were several officials dressed as scholars nearby, taking photos together at critical moments.
It has a very bookish flavor.
The young man is Li Sicheng, the emperor of the Li Dynasty. This is a place he specially built for studying in the palace, called Jiuge Qiongyuan. Standing next to him are all great Confucian scholars from Annan.
The poetry of the Ming Dynasty has declined a lot, and script novels are now popular. However, for small countries like Annan, they are still attracted by the culture of the Central Plains. Li Sicheng is familiar with Han culture. Even if he took the imperial examination in the Ming Dynasty, he might be the same as Jinshi.
At this moment, Li Sicheng slowly read:
The west wind blows the old Dongting waves, and Xiangjun's hair turns white all night long.
After being drunk, I don’t know that the sky is on the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams that overwhelm the stars.
He stood up suddenly, patted the table and praised: "What a sentence: When you are drunk, you don't know the sky is on the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams, overwhelming the stars. Who said that scholars in the Ming Dynasty were not as good as those in the Tang and Song Dynasties? Just this sentence can compare with the autumn water sharing the same color of the sky!
"
Then he whispered again: "Would it be better to change it to dreaming of a ship full of stars?"
It's crazy.
This should still be inferior to the Preface to Prince Teng’s Pavilion.
But Tang Gong, a poet from the Ming Dynasty, was able to write this sentence, which is a bit like a single poem that overwhelms the entire Ming Dynasty. It is no exaggeration to say that it is difficult to find a poem with such an artistic conception in the entire Ming Dynasty.
A courtier on the side laughed and said: "Your Majesty, you are praising me incorrectly. Although this poem is good and has a beautiful artistic conception, it ultimately lacks some meaning and emotion. It is beautiful but has no soul."
Li Sicheng laughed out loud, "How can Aiqing have the confidence to comment like this?"
The Central Plains Dynasty has always been a kingdom of heaven.
Ananda admired the culture of the Central Plains, so many things in the court copied the regulations of the Central Plains dynasty.
For example, the titles of Your Majesty and Aiqing are all based on those of the Central Plains Dynasty.
The minister who spoke out blushed for a while.
I felt secretly unhappy.
I can't comment, but Your Majesty, how can you say that this sentence is comparable to the artistic conception of the autumn water and the long sky?
Just as Li Sicheng was about to say something, a chamberlain came in hurriedly, "Your Majesty, there is an urgent military report from Xinping Mansion, and a letter is attached, please read it personally."
Li Sicheng's heart tightened, "Could it be that Champa is invading our country? It can actually occupy Sheng Hua and Hue Prefectures without us having any information. Is this impossible?"
But why did an emergency military report come from Tan Binh Province instead of Hue Province and Teng Binh Province?
After the founding of Le Loi, the local administrative division of Annam still followed the regulations during the period of the Chief Minister of Cochin. Annam has a long and narrow territory, with Thang Hoa and Champa bordering each other. To the north of Thang Hoa is Hue, and to the north of Hue is Tan Binh.
Actually...
Annan has been copying the Central Plains Dynasty.
In Annan during the Song and Song Dynasties, local administrative divisions were based on roads, and now the local administrative divisions during the Ming Dynasty's Jiaozhi Chief Envoy Period remain intact.
Li Sicheng hurriedly opened the emergency military report and after reading it at a glance, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
The local garrison urgently reported that a small court was established in Taiwan. The fortress Zhu Qizhen, who was beaten to pieces by the Ming Dynasty Prince Zhu Jianji, took the elite of Huilong Camp to the sea and ran to Hue Prefecture.
We do not have enough troops in Hue, Tan Binh and Thang Hoa provinces. Please ask Li Sicheng whether to send troops to drive away the Bao Zong. If you want to take action against the Bao Zong, please ask Tokyo to increase its troops.
Li Sicheng was furious. Damn it, he had been eyeing the Ming Dynasty in the past, trying to get some benefits, but to no avail, he was frightened back by the Ming Dynasty. As a result, he didn't live in peace for two months, and my backyard caught fire!
The general reported the case and said, "Well, Zhu Qizhen, you don't have any fucking moral ethics!"
The ministers standing aside were so frightened that they became silent.
They are not important officials in the court, and they dare not speak nonsense about national affairs.
Li Sicheng took a few deep breaths, calmed down his emotions, and unfolded the letter written by Baozong to him. After reading it, he was completely confused. He had seen such shameless people before, but he had never seen such shameless people.
Zhu Qizhen said in the letter, Brother Li, I know that you have been severely squeezed by Zhu Qiyu and his son in recent years. The tribute paid once every three years cannot be shaken, and it is an unbearable burden for your country.
I can't stand this matter for a long time. When I was in power, I always wanted to exempt your country from paying tribute, but everything went wrong and it was delayed again and again. Now that Zhu Qiyu and his son are aggressive, your country is on the bedside, and it is inevitable that it will be
The ambitions of these two father and son are coveted, so I gave up the precious land of Taiwan and led a hundred thousand troops to your country to help Brother Li.
The armies of your country in Hue Prefecture and Shenghua Prefecture can be quickly transferred back to the Guangxi border to guard against the surprise attack of Zhu Jianji's young army, and to prevent my army from clashing with your country's army. As for the people of these two provinces, I will also help you.
If you manage it well, don't worry.
At the end, they encouraged each other, saying that after my dragon returns to Beijing in the future, I will not forget today's troubles and let Ming Dynasty and Annan share the prosperity and prosperity.
Li Sicheng was already thinking about scolding his mother.
Good guy, just with these words, you want to cut off the land of my two mansions?
