Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Today's Southern Dynasty only has the loyalty of some monks and samurai, and its strength is at most a prince. It does not have the strength to launch a war to overthrow the shogun and the subsequent Emperor Uta of the Northern Dynasty.

    Since the time of Emperor Go-Kameyama, all the emperors of the Southern Dynasties have been trying their best to make Emperor Go-Daigo and his family the supreme rulers of Japan again. However, they have never been able to realize this wish.

    During the third year of the Ming Dynasty, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the third-generation general of the Muromachi shogunate, sent Hakata businessman Feifu and monk Zua to the Ming Dynasty.  The following year, the Ming Dynasty canonized Ashikaga Yoshimitsu as the "King of Japan", began formal diplomatic relations between the two countries in the form of tribute, and began tribute trade with the Ming Dynasty.

    The Ming Dynasty even thought that the shogun of the Muromachi shogunate was the king of the Japanese country, but there was nothing that could be done about it. The emperor of the Northern Dynasties was controlled by him, while the power of the emperor of the Southern Dynasties was too pitiful and there was no way to respond.

    But today, the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty, who was almost desperate, heard the news of the Ming envoy. How could he not be shocked beyond belief.  So much so that after repeated confirmations, I dared to believe that the envoy of the Ming Dynasty was indeed coming to find me, instead of going north to look for the shogun or the emperor of the Northern Dynasty.

    "Their giant ships are even taller than our city. On top of their warships are those terrifying big tubes. Once fired, the sky will collapse and the earth will fall apart. Our warships and city walls will be like paper in front of their big tubes.  General" The samurai who followed Nahatakeyama Yoshi into the palace put his head on the floor and respectfully recounted their initial contact with the Ming envoy.

    Listening to the warrior's vivid description.  Emperor Zunyi's heart was full of mixed emotions.  It was unimaginable that the Ming Dynasty was so powerful that a fleet of just a mission could completely destroy a heavily guarded port.

    "The city guard finally believed the words of the Ming Dynasty merchant and welcomed the envoy into the city to entertain him. But before the villain came, the Ming Dynasty envoy had already led his guards towards Yoshino.  "

    "The Ming Dynasty is so powerful? But I don't know why the Ming Dynasty envoy made me peace." Zunyi couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart. You must know that in the past, the Ming Dynasty had conferred the title of Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu.  For the king of Japan.

    ¡ª¡ª

    And the Northern Dynasty has always carried out tribute trade with the Ming Dynasty. Although it has been decades, it was later abandoned due to the maritime affairs of the Ming Dynasty.  Although the tribute was not cut off, more benefits were obtained by the daimyo from the sea, that is, they used piracy to deal with the Ming Dynasty's merchant ships at sea.

    But so what.  No one can catch any evidence. Even if they are caught, they will catch a bunch of gangsters and hand them over to the Ming Dynasty just like what Ashikaga Yoshimitsu did.  .  This matter will certainly not affect anything.

    But now, the Ming Dynasty envoy came to serve as an envoy, not going to the Northern Dynasty, nor looking for the general.  Instead, he came to find himself, which made Zunyi feel complacent.  I couldn't help but feel a little afraid.

    After all, there was no way to know the purpose of the Ming envoy's visit.  Whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, no one can tell.

    "Your Majesty the Emperor, I think that the Ming envoy did not go to the Northern Dynasty to find those rebellious people, but came to see you, which shows that there must be something beneficial to our Southern Dynasty. Otherwise, with the strength of the Ming envoy, I can  The Southern Dynasties suffered heavy losses.¡±

    "Besides, if it is really going to be detrimental to our Southern Dynasty, then how dare the Ming envoys dare to come and risk their lives alone?"

    Although Hatakeyama Yoshi is not a famous minister, he may be able to become an important minister in the Southern Dynasty. At least in terms of strategy and ability, he is a step ahead. Therefore, seeing Emperor Zunyi being so worried, he analyzed it for Emperor Zunyi.

    After hearing Hatakeyama Yoshitsune's words, the more Emperor Zunyi thought about it, the more sense it made. He threw all the last worries in his heart behind his mind and praised him again and again.  "Well, in that case, I feel at ease. Mr. Hatakeyama, I will leave this matter to you. Don't neglect the envoy of the Ming Dynasty. Alas, I really hope that the envoy of the Ming Dynasty can arrive earlier. I hope that the Ming Dynasty  The envoy can understand the chaos of Yamato and restore the former glory of Dajue Temple."

    Seeing His Majesty the Emperor like this, Nahatakeyama Yi couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Although he was loyal to His Majesty the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty until death, he was also full of pessimism about the future of the Southern Dynasty, and even,  At the beginning of his allegiance, Hatakeyama Yoshika never felt that the Southern Dynasty would have a chance to truly unify the world.

    However, for his own beliefs, Hatakeyama Yoshiyuki still made the decision to support the Southern Dynasty. Although he was gambling, if he used his own power to serve the Northern Dynasty, he might not even be the so-called icing on the cake.Even flowers can't be used, and it might even be occupied by some powerful people.

    Compared with the weak Southern Dynasty, Hatakeyama Yoshijo's coming to surrender was a typical help in times of need, and it made everyone in the Southern Dynasty place extra trust in him. At least, he could surrender in adversity. Such loyalty will naturally  There is no doubt about it.

    This is why the emperors of the Southern Dynasties paid special attention to him and mostly listened to his opinions.

    But this time, many warriors and monks in the palace also greatly agreed with Hatakeyama Yoshijo's words. After all, his analysis was indeed very reasonable, so he quickly came to the conclusion that he must squeeze out more money no matter what.  Come and serve the envoys of the Ming Dynasty.  Try to persuade the Ming Dynasty envoy to write to the Ming Dynasty emperor, telling him that the king of Japan was driven to the miserable place of Yoshino by a group of rebellious officials and thieves and survived.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away out of the Ming Dynasty

    Two days later, a team of about two hundred riders appeared only a few miles away from Yoshino Castle.  The leader is none other than Yuan Bin, a confidant of Emperor Zhu Qizhen.  Looking at the Yoshino Castle built on the back of the mountain, Yuan Bin smiled at Qianhu, the Emperor's personal army beside him, and said, "How many troops and horses would it take if I, the Ming army, attacked such a Chicheng?"

    "Although this kind of city seems to be in a dangerous terrain, it is actually just a dead land. If it were our Ming army, we only need one battalion of soldiers and horses to take it." After the emperor's own soldier Qianhu looked at it intently, he was very surprised.  Answered calmly.

    Hearing this conclusion, Yuan Bin couldn't help but reveal a meaningful smile on his face.  "Wu Rong, you underestimate the enemy too much. In Yuan's opinion, at least three battalions are needed. After all, each battalion has less than ten small cannons. It will take a long time to break through such a city wall.  For a long time, when marching and fighting, the most important thing is the opportunity to fight. We should use the power of thunder to make a quick decision. If there is too much delay and things change, it will be a mistake for the general."

    "My lord, you have taught me a lesson, but the general has made a mistake. If three battalions of troops attack this city, they will be able to attack it overnight." Wu Rong nodded and accepted the lesson solemnly.
