Chapter 322
"Listen to the orders, generals! Put on muskets and short guns immediately!"

Under Sheng Yong's order, the hundred guards who participated in the hunting immediately replaced the muskets developed by Zhu Yunxi and the craftsmen.

Each person has one musket, while each person is equipped with two short guns, which are tightly hung on the waist with a special leather case, so that they can be drawn and used at any time.

"Personally count the musket ammunition!"

Following Sheng Yong's order, every soldier began to check the ammunition and muskets to see if there was anything wrong.

Because during the training, Sheng Yong had extremely strict requirements on them, and every time they reloaded ammunition, they had to be fast and accurate, without any slack.

Moreover, there are strict regulations on the procedures of each inspection. The areas that need to be inspected include various aspects of the gun, such as the inner chamber, appearance, whether there is gunpowder residue left, and so on.

"The inspection of the first team is completed!"

"Second team inspection completed!"

"The inspection of the three teams is completed!"

……

"Ten teams are inspected!"

After the inspection, each team quickly reports the status of the inspection, which can also quickly let the team leader know the situation of each team.

Sheng Yong said loudly: "Raise soldiers for a thousand days, use them for a while! You all know how much Your Highness values ​​us! Your Highness spends more time in the guard camp than the government!"

"Today is the time for us to show His Highness the results of our training and serve His Highness!"

"The muskets in your hands are not firesticks! They are sharp weapons for killing people! They are the weapons for destroying the enemy! Today, since His Highness let these muskets be in front of everyone, it will show the true colors of Lushan Mountain!"

"Then we must live up to His Highness's expectations! A sharp weapon for killing needs to be sacrificed with blood! Use human life to open its sharpness!"

"Swear to serve His Highness to the death!"

"Swear to serve His Highness to the death!"

"..."

As Zhu Yunxie's confidant, they will of course get the news as soon as His Highness wants to do!

Although Sheng Yong and Geng Rui were a little surprised when they received the order, they still obeyed the order and quickly changed into musket equipment.

The cold wind blew all day yesterday, and the envoys of the Japanese slave kingdom, who had long been dissatisfied and suffocated, were also brought to the camp.

Under the watchful eyes of the courtiers, the principal and deputy envoys of the mission were brought before His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun.

The two hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "The Japanese mission, pay homage to His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness, Sheng An!"

Zhu Yunxi said coldly: "Da Ming has no diplomatic relations with your country, so you can't deserve such a big gift from your country. Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Xiaosong and Guishan knew that the other party was unhappy, so they had to stand up silently.

Looking at the courtiers, Zhu Yunxi said slowly: "My dear friends, last night I received a report from the imperial court that a group of more than [-] Japanese pirates landed on the coast of Ningbo, burning, killing and looting all the way. Went to Linshan County to plunder the people and injured more than [-] people."

"After the government and the guards got the news, they sent troops to encircle and suppress them. The Japanese pirates fled away immediately, but they didn't escape! Instead, they appeared in Wusong and Shanghai counties soon, not only looting wantonly, but also killing more than [-] people! "

When the civil and military officials heard the news, they all frowned and felt dissatisfied!

Guishan was also full of astonishment, quietly looked sideways at Xiaosong Xiaosong, and took a deep breath...

Of course he knew how important Wusong and the two counties of Shanghai were to the capital of Daming!

Xiao Song lowered his head, a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes...

The general Lan Yu came out and said: "Your Highness, the soldiers in these guards are not good at preparing for the Japanese, and they did not send troops in time, which caused the people to suffer. I think they should be dismissed and investigated!"

"What the general said is true! Last night I ordered them to be dismissed and investigated, and dealt with severely!"

Zhu Yunxi said angrily: "Wusong and the second counties of Shanghai are not only the mouth of the Yangtze River, but also the gate of the capital! There is also Taicang next to it!"

Once it is breached by Japanese pirates, Daming will suffer heavy losses and lose face!These things that are not good for preparing for the Japanese are really damn! "

Chang Ru, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, came out and said, "Your Highness, I think you should ask the Japanese envoys about the looting by the Japanese pirates, why the Japanese pirates are so rampant!"

"How do they govern the people of their own country! Could it be that they have raised a group of thieves?"

Feng Sheng said: "That's right! The Wonu Kingdom sent a mission to Daming this time, and they said that they want to become a vassal state of Daming!"

"You actually did such a despicable thing! This is not like a vassal state! I think you should be held accountable!"

Ying Guogong Fu Youde gritted his teeth at Xiaosong and Guishan, and said angrily:
"Your Highness! This matter must not be left alone! It's simply wanton and rampant! Do you really think that Ming's soldiers are vegetarians!"

"I think the Japanese slave country should be held accountable and let them hand over the Japanese pirates!"

"The minister seconded the proposal! This move of the Japanese Nu Kingdom shows no respect! The minister thinks that he must never be accepted as a vassal!"

"My minister agrees!"

Ren Hengtai, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, said: "Since the Wa Nu Kingdom wants to establish diplomatic relations, it must show sincerity. Throughout the ages, it has never been heard that one side is an enemy and the other side is good friends!"

"I thought I had to be held accountable this time! We must not let it go easily!"

"The minister also agrees!"

"The minister also agrees!"

"The minister also agrees!"

Facing the humiliation, civil and military officials responded surprisingly unanimously!
Although some people feel that the severance of diplomatic relations is a bit arbitrary, they also agree that the Japanese slave country should be held accountable.

Because this is a matter of face and the dignity of the court!

And the dignity of the court is the dignity of the courtiers!

At this time, Zhu Yunxi looked at the single-minded courtiers and was very satisfied.

Backbone comes from strength!

As an emperor with backbone, the courtiers under Zhu Yuanzhang are not weak!

Taking advantage of the unanimity of everyone's opinions, Zhu Yunxi said, "Messengers of the Wonu Kingdom, what do you say about this matter!"

Xiao Song hastily quibbled and said: "Your Highness, this is not what our country did, but there are some bandits and pirates entrenched in the sea, and they are not citizens of our country at all..."

"And our king has repeatedly issued orders to crack down on these pirates and thieves, so it can be seen that these thieves are not our business..."

"Then you mean that these Japanese pirates have nothing to do with you?!"

Fu Youde pointed to his nose and said: "It's obviously one of yours, so it's really not a son of man to make such a sophistry!"

Xiaosong showed a look of grievance, "It's really wronged, it really has nothing to do with us... Even if we meet them, we will be robbed by them, and these thieves have repeatedly burned, killed and looted on the Japanese islands..."

"We are also unbearable, and please ask His Highness the Emperor Taisun to learn from it. If we can wipe out the thieves, that would be great..."

Who can fail to hear his excuses?
Lan Yu scolded: "You bastard! You dare to quibble at this time! Without a heart of repentance, you simply don't know how to live or die!"

King Zhu of Jin also yelled and said, "Shameless! You still don't admit it at this time! You mess around! I think you are really impatient!"

Xiao Song was still quibbling and said: "Your Highness and the Ming court should be careful, these thieves really have nothing to do with us..."

A hint of fierceness flashed in Zhu Yunxi's eyes, he stretched out his hand to stop his words, and announced:

"The Japanese slave country is not educated, and it is difficult to restrain the people, which leads to the frequent occurrence of Japanese pirates. It can be seen that the country's political situation is turbulent and unpopular!"

"Such a country of wolves is rampant, it is not worthy of being a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty!"

"From today onwards, Daming refuses the envoys of the Japanese slave kingdom! All business and trade will be cut off! The Japanese slaves are not allowed to walk on the territory of the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Yunxi's words are tantamount to completely severing their desire to become a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty!
Although some courtiers feel that this treatment is a bit arbitrary and not perfect.

After all, there are still people who fantasize about establishing a suzerain-vassal relationship so that the Japanese pirates can restrain themselves.

But they didn't say anything, because the actions of the Japanese pirates proved that they lacked respect. I am afraid that even if they established a relationship, it would be difficult to cut off the Japanese pirates.

So no one spoke out to dissuade them.

Xiao Song quickly knelt down and said: "His Royal Highness, the king of our country is full of sincerity, willing to serve Daming, and never break the covenant! Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

Zhu Yunxi said resolutely: "Today I will give you one day to prepare, and tomorrow you will leave the capital immediately! If you dare to neglect...General Lan Yu!"

"Wei Chen is here!"

"If they move slowly, send troops to expel them immediately!"

Lan Yu clasped her fists to accept the order and said, "Yes! I obey!"

After receiving the order, he did not forget to glance at the envoy of the Wonu Kingdom with a fierce expression and a provocative look.

Looking at the envoy of the Japanese slave kingdom who was frowning and his face was blue and purple,

Zhu Yunxi spoke again and said: "Later, the kings will have a battle of soldiers and horses. If you don't have any urgent government affairs, you can stay and watch."

"I will obey your orders!"

Now that His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun said so, everyone accepted his orders.

Zhu Yunxi turned to the envoy of the Japanese slave country again, without the slightest anger on his face, but with a three-pointed smile on his face.

The envoy asked, "I heard that you claim to be extraordinary in force, and I want to see you. Do you have the courage to participate in this contest?"

The muscles on Xiaosong's face twitched, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, our country's military power is beyond doubt."

"Since Your Highness wants to see it, we are also willing to show it. It just so happens that I also want to see Da Ming's strength!"

Komatsu's words can be said to be tit for tat!
The other party has already ordered him to be expelled, cut off contact and business, so Xiaosong has no scruples.

Just as he thought, let Daming see their force, maybe there is still a chance to turn around...

But if this is the case, it will immediately attract dissatisfaction from everyone!
"Your Highness! Let my guards come! Kill them all!" Qin Wang Zhu Xi was the first to plead for orders.

Everyone understands what kind of "competition" this is.

King Jin also said: "Your Highness, my guards are all first-class experts! Let me come!"

Zhu Di also saluted and asked for orders: "Your Highness, my soldiers and horses often fight against the Mongols, and they are very experienced in killing and cutting. Please go to battle!"

Dai Wang Zhu Gui patted his chest, made a dull sound, and said angrily:

"The small country of Qu'er dares to be presumptuous! Let me do it! If I can't beat them, I will write a letter to my father and ask for self-deprecation!!"
