Sun Ying is a military commander. A military commander may not be able to write a splendid Chinese essay, but he must have read the military book.
As soon as Qin Kan said the word "balance", Sun Ying understood what he meant.
A trace of hesitation flashed between his brows. After all, the nature of causing trouble in Japan is too serious. If you go too far, you will inevitably cause a big chaos. It is a diplomatic incident between the two countries. A seventh-level supervisor censor will impeach a small book. Even Sun Ying was killed.
Of course, the Tianjin Navy Admiral Yang Dequan's annihilation of the entire Japanese fleet a few days ago is an exception. The probability of such an exception is equivalent to the Yang family's ancestral graves blowing smoke for three lifetimes, and he is lucky enough to have a happy ending. , but whether there is smoke coming out of Sun Ying's ancestral grave has not been tested for many years
As if seeing Sun Ying's hesitation, Qin Kan said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, I am not asking you to lead five hundred soldiers to conquer Japan. This is a careless thing. The so-called balance is actually very simple, just supporting the weak and bullying the strong. At the moment, Japan The royal family is weak, you might as well listen to the words of His Majesty the Emperor. He will definitely not be lonely when he suddenly has five hundred firearms in his hands. Then you can fight whoever he tells you to fight and help him conquer a large territory. Japan The war situation was too chaotic. Although there were dozens of daimyo fighting back and forth, the only ones with real strength were the Ouchi clan and the Hosokawa clan. If you have nothing else to do, look at the map of Japan and look for the power distribution of the Emperor, the Ouchi clan, and the Hosokawa clan. , found out who was too strong, and instigated the Emperor of Japan to fight him; found out who was too weak, secretly formed an alliance with him, and quietly supported him"
Sun Ying finally understood and drew inferences from one example: "If one day the power of the Japanese emperor becomes stronger, the general can also lead his troops to leave the palace and form an alliance with other daimyo to contain the emperor's power"
"Yes, in a word, we must let them fight. They must not stop fighting for a day, let alone let Japan be unified. Visit them as much as possible on weekdays. Keep an eye on them at any time to see if there is anyone with great ambitions, good plans, and the secret of the universe. Machine, a so-called hero who embodies the will of heaven and earth. Once such a person is discovered"
Sun Ying suddenly showed a ferocious look: "Chop him into pieces and feed him to the dogs!"
Qin Kan looked at him happily and said with a smile: "You can also feed the fish. There is no need to stick to a certain way of death. You can always introduce new things from the old."
Sun Ying clasped his fists and said: "I finally understand what I mean. In a nutshell, I am very wary of Japan, so I use the method of checks and balances to cause civil strife, and ultimately achieve the goal of Ming Dynasty managing from a distance."
Qin Kan nodded and smiled: "You are not an outsider, and I won't hide it. Yes, I am indeed on guard against Japan. The garrison is actually a hundred-year plan. The predecessors planted trees for future generations to enjoy the shade. The results will be seen a hundred years later. , you now have the rank of general, and you are considered a general in the army. It is indeed unfair for you to go to Japan to garrison, but I am not worried about others. If you go to garrison here, you will stay there for five years and come back in five years. I recommend to Your Majesty that I will grant you the title of earl, and your grace will last for generations to come."
Sun Ying trembled all over. She looked at him in disbelief, then stood up and knelt down heavily facing him, saying excitedly: "Sun Ying can only make an inch of progress, and it's all thanks to the support of the father-in-law. I am willing to do my best for the father-in-law in this life, even if I die!"
Qin Kan smiled and helped him up, and like a magic trick, he took out a note and handed it over. He sighed: "Besides this, there is another private matter. The Japanese royal family is really not particular about it. They tried their best to help him yesterday, so they should be given a heavy gift. But Prince Chihito is short of money, so he came to pay homage just now. You gave me a note, saying that you owe me twenty thousand taels of silver and you will pay it back in Japan, which is more than me Well, it is so shameless. You can help me get this done when you get to Japan."
Sun Ying was stunned for a moment, then he slapped his chest hard and said in an evil voice: "This matter is all on the General. If that bastard Prince Zhiren can't get the money, the General will demolish the Japanese Imperial Palace and sell it!"
Qin Kan waved his hands repeatedly: "Rude, too rude. We are the lords of the Celestial Dynasty, how can we be so barbaric? If they really can't get the money, I won't force it. I heard that there is a place in Japan called Shimane Prefecture, outside the county. There is a mountain called "Ishimiyama". That mountain is currently within the Ouchi clan's sphere of influence. Ask His Majesty the Emperor to write a note and say that you will give me Iwamiyama and then talk to the Ouchi clan about the handover. , if we can¡¯t reach an agreement, we¡¯ll fight¡¡±
Sun Ying asked in confusion: "Why do you want a mountain?"
Qin Kan said slowly: "Because it is a silver mine"
"Pfft - cough cough cough" Sun Ying coughed until his face turned red. After a long time, he clasped his fists and said, "Master, wait and see, that mountain will be named Qin from now on!"
Sun Ying left, with Qin Kan full of intrigues and intrigues, and with strong expectations for Iwami Ginzan. The image on his back was like a very unreasonable and fierce god. His Majesty the Emperor of Japan would soon discover that the leader of the Celestial Dynasty came to the country. The soldiers sent to protect him were by no means as kind as he imagined. Half a year later, he would slap himself hard when he dreamed about it at midnight, and he had a profound understanding of "leading the wolf".The meaning of the idiom "room".
Qin Kan is not in a hurry, he has plenty of time, but what he is thinking about right now is the silver mountain.
Happiness comes too quickly. I just hope that Prince Zhiren will be poor all the way to the end and never pay him back the money, so that he will have no excuse to pay back the money. Of course, if he really dares to pay back the money, I believe Sun Ying will have a way to make this prince Ying. Although the appearance of the person who died young was a bit ugly, Qin Kan couldn't care less about the silver mountain in front of him even if the appearance was ugly.
He was thinking about how to distribute the share of this silver mountain. After all, this wealth was too big. Qin Kan would be exhausted if he ate it alone. Zhu Houzhao could not help but give him half, and give the rest to Xungui and keep two for himself. The way to get rich is to follow the emperor quietly. In the future, the mined ore will filter out the silver, and the craftsman will be ordered to build a sterling silver bed. He will lie on it and enjoy the life of the nouveau riche. Who dares to call him vulgar? I smashed him to death with a big silver ingot, and while venting my anger, I paid for his funeral expenses
Qin Kan was immersed in the dream of the nouveau riche and slept soundly.
After sleeping until daylight, I walked to the inner courtyard wearing a thin spring shirt, but the housekeeper hurriedly came to report that the emperor was here.
Qin Kan nodded and walked to the front hall. Zhu Houzhao had long been a frequent visitor to the Qin Mansion, and everyone in the Qin family had lost their enthusiasm for being flattered by his arrival.
Qin Kan took two steps, but saw that the housekeeper looked hesitant and hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong?" Qin Kan asked.
"Sir, the emperor doesn't look good today"
Qin Kan suddenly looked worried: "You won't be beaten by Madam again, will you?"
"That's not the case, it's just that with all due respect to this old man, the Emperor seems to be wandering when he walks, and his face is dull and his eyes are dull, as if he has been possessed by an evil spirit"
