Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Lin Efeng came to Kagoshima again on behalf of the shogunate.

    He took a whole delegation to China with the ship, and went to Nanjing to meet the emperor.  It is nothing more than reconfirming the relationship between the two countries, clarifying this misunderstanding, and intending to set an annual Sino-Japanese transaction limit.

    There is no doubt that Japan is a vassal state of Ming Dynasty.

    During the period of Emperor Jianwen, the Muromachi shogunate held a grand reception ceremony at the Kinkakuji Temple in Kitayama, Kyoto. It was after accepting the imperial edict of Ming Dynasty that Zhu Di ascended the throne, the Muromachi shogunate took the initiative to send envoys to congratulate him.  source".  The following year, Zhu Di sent an envoy to Japan, recanonized, and bestowed the "King of Japan" with a turtle-shaped golden seal.  In order to show their sincerity, the Muromachi shogunate steamed and killed more than two Japanese pirate leaders in front of the Ming envoy.

    Until the Tokugawa shogunate came to power and Japan was formally unified, they wanted to restore relations with Ming Dynasty.

    It's a pity that only a few years after the Korean War between China and Japan, the emperors and ministers of the Ming Dynasty have always been wary of Japan.  The Tokugawa shogunate had no choice but to keep conveying goodwill, and the relationship between the two countries was getting better day by day, but every time there was a substantive breakthrough, the "Japanese pirates" would inevitably come out again to make trouble, and the relationship between China and Japan immediately dropped to a freezing point.  He tended to support Nanming, and he couldn't understand the Tartar barbarians emerging from the ravine.  There is also the influence of Ming Dynasty survivors, including Zhu Shunshui, many Ming Dynasty survivors took refuge in Japan, and even became lecturers for the shogunate, continuously instilling cruelty, barbarism, and unfaithfulness in the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

    This kind of influence is very far-reaching. Japanese samurai of all dynasties did not recognize the Manchu Qing as Chinese orthodoxy, and of course they did not accept Japan as a vassal state of the Manchu Qing.

    So in the Qing Dynasty, Japan has always been China's "mutual market country", which means doing business on an equal footing.

    The Manchu Qing wanted to accept Japan as a vassal state, and when they first entered the customs, they released their goodwill and returned the Japanese who had been shipwrecked many times.  But the Tokugawa shogunate didn't appreciate it at all, and still regarded the Manchus as barbarians, and even regarded Japan as a small China.

    Now that the Datong New Dynasty is established, the two countries do not have much grievances. The Tokugawa shogunate took the initiative to ask for the seal a few years ago.

    Liu Xiangke stood at the bow of the boat, smiled and put his hand behind his back, pointed to the shore and said, "Your envoy, please watch it."

    Lin Efeng's expression was very embarrassing, because the Datong Army on the shore was withdrawing troops, but the people around Tsurumaru City knelt down and begged the Datong Army to stay.

    What is this all about?

    In fact, it's not that mysterious, and don't talk about military and civilian fish and water.  So far, the Datong Army has only dealt fairly with the common people.

    Not only did they not burn, kill, loot, but at the same time maintain the law and order in the castle town.

    And these actions are enough to make the local people return to their hearts!

    What's more, the Datong Army once gave porridge here to help the people, and spent money to ask local women to help the soldiers wash their clothes.  These are real benefits, especially for the 500 laundry women whose whole family came to kneel on the pier, crying and begging for the Datong Army to stay.

    Lin Efeng has been familiar with Confucian classics since he was a child. At this moment, he said with shame: "The teacher of true benevolence and righteousness. The common people eat pots and milk to keep the king's teacher. Today we know that it is not a lie."

    Those wild warriors who took refuge in the Datong Army are also kneeling now.

    Miyazaki Shiro climbed up in front of Li Dingguo, hugged Tang Wushuang's thigh and cried: "General, please take us away, we will be the general's loyal dogs for generations to come!"

    Forty-eight Guitou knelt on the bank and kowtowed to Li Dingguo non-stop.

    Li Dingguo took these people only for the convenience of fighting, and he has no right to bring them back to the country.  Seeing that the other party was so humble and loyal, it was inevitable that he was a little moved and said, "The Shimadzu family samurai suffered a lot of casualties this time. I have recommended you to the current family governor, and the Shimadzu family governor has also agreed. You can all be his samurai from now on.  "

    Miyazaki Shiro said: "We only want to be the general's samurai!"

    Fighting with the Datong Army, the treatment is better than being a samurai of the Shimadzu family, and they still want to use this to make a fortune.

    Li Dingguo said: "Well, there are still some extra cotton armor in the army, and each of you will give you a pair. Maybe it's too lenient, so you can find a craftsman to make it smaller. As for weapons and horses, I have no right to decide and reward you. Ladies and gentlemen  Farewell!"

    More than twenty sets of cotton armor were moved from the ship and given to these wild warriors.

    When the wild warriors got the cotton armor, they were happy and excited, and they respected Li Dingguo even more.  Until Li Dingguo boarded the boat, they were still kneeling on the shore, crying and kowtowing.

    Back in Fuzhou, the Japanese envoy followed Liu Xiangke to Nanjing to meet the emperor.

    Li Dingguo rested in Fuzhou, and at the same time replenished casualties nearby.  In fact, the number of casualties was not many. More than a dozen died successively, and more than a dozen were forced to leave the army due to serious injuries.

    Next, Li Dingguo will go to Hainan Island, where he will get familiar with the tropical climate for two months?Imagine how readers across the country will react when this issue of the newspaper is released.

    Liu Xiangke opened the second newspaper again. This time there was only a map, but it was the abbreviated version of "The Complete Map of the World".  Most of the scholars in the country did not have access to the world map before. For the first time, they knew the vastness of the world through newspapers.

    Open the latest issue of the newspaper again. There is no map, only excerpts from the "Datong Constitution" and reports of the Datong Army sending troops to Ryukyu.

    Liu Xiangke read an excerpt from the "Constitution of Great Harmony", and was stunned after reading only a few paragraphs. He subconsciously turned to look at Lin Efeng.

    Lin Efeng was still flipping through the world map until he got back to the boat and finally read an excerpt from the "Constitution of Great Harmony". After being dazed, he sighed with emotion: "As expected of a generation of heroes, once the "Constitution" comes out, the world will be a world of great contention!  "

    The ass decides the head. These two Confucian diplomats, by coincidence, set their sights on the content that the Constitution encourages to open up to the outside world.
