The back door of my house can last until the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 301 Torturing the West
Some people live, but he is dead.

Matsudaira Nobutsuna didn't know this sentence, but it is very appropriate to use this sentence to describe it at this time.

Even though he is still breathing and talking, he has actually become a dead person.

Looking at the flames that covered the sky and the sun in front of him, his heart was ashamed.

He clearly understood that if these grains were burned, the days to come would be difficult.

The collapse of soldiers and horses will become inevitable.

Once the soldiers and horses collapse, then he doesn't have to live.

These North Koreans will never let him go, and will definitely wipe them out as much as possible.

Seeing the orange flame in front of him, Nobuzuna Matsudaira was in a daze for a moment.

When he dispatched troops, he swore to Tokugawa Iemitsu that he would live up to his mission and be able to take down the entire North Korea, and then together with Zheng Zhilong, he would attack Liaodong.

But now, it has become such a situation.

This is almost the same as Toyotomi Hideyoshi back then.

They are stronger than Toyotomi Hideyoshi back then.

After all, Toyotomi Hideyoshi did not have the help of Zheng Zhilong, and the power on the sea was almost zero.

Even so, they still failed, the failure was thorough, and the failure was very clean.

Once the flames in front of him burn the food, all the dreams in his heart will be wiped out in an instant.

"Put out the fire, put out the fire, put out the fire!"

Matsudaira Nobutsuna shouted loudly, hysterical, as if falling into madness.

"Quick, quick!"

The followers around shouted and ran towards the fire.

I saw many ashigaru carrying water basins running in continuously, and they poured the water in the basins onto the flames continuously.

It's a pity that it's a drop in the bucket, and it's useless.

Before the water falls on the burning object, it is scorched by the scorching flames into water vapor.

Water and fire are ruthless, and the fire begins to spread, which cannot be stopped by manpower.

The crackling sound of burning wood can be heard endlessly, just like firecrackers set off during the Chinese New Year.

The heat wave continued to hit the face, Matsudaira Nobuzuna's face was covered with hot sweat.

His face was scorched red by the flames, he took a few steps back with a dull face, and said blankly: "It's over, it's over, it's all over, it's over!"

Then it was as if a bone had been pulled out, and he fell limply to the ground.

Want to cry, but can't cry.

This kind of despair is unprecedented.

He is not alone in despair.

Autumn in Edo is beautiful, with chrysanthemums blooming all over the hills.

Mountain hand is like growing in a sea of ​​flowers, so beautiful that it is suffocating.

The autumn wind blows, and the fragrance of chrysanthemums lingers throughout the mountain.

It's a pity that Tokugawa Iemitsu is not in any mood to appreciate this beautiful scenery now.

His elite is basically still in North Korea, and he doesn't know what's going on at the moment.

After going to North Korea, there has been no news. This feeling makes people desperate to the extreme.

If there are no elite soldiers in hand, those big names will not surrender easily.

It took a lot of time to make these big names surrender, but now that they have no soldiers in their hands, how could they surrender?

Just like his grandfather Tokugawa Ieyasu backstabbed Toyotomi Hideyoshi back then, there must be someone backstabbing him.

As for who this person is, it doesn't matter.

Without strength, anyone could be the second Ieyasu Tokugawa.

The shogun's house is very luxurious, but at this time it is very depressed.

There was still a faint smell of medicine in the air.

Tokugawa Iemitsu fell ill.

The doctor said that he was too worried.

Lying on the bed, he looked at Doi Toshin who was kneeling beside him, and said with a sad face, "How is the situation now? Is Horita Masamori back?"

Toshikatsu Doi is the governor of the three generations of Tokugawa Ieyasu, Tokugawa Hidetada, and Tokugawa Iemitsu, and a confidant of the Tokugawa family.

He had already gradually withdrawn, but after Matsudaira Nobuzuna and Hota Masamori left, Tokugawa Iemitsu brought them in again.

Toshikatsu Doi is very old, with white hair, and the wrinkles on his face are like the chrysanthemums of Yamanode at this time.

He shook his head bitterly, and said: "There is no news yet, no matter whether it is North Korea or Daqin, there is no news.

At this time, we are like blind men walking in the dark, without any future and light! "

Tokugawa Iemitsu has aged a lot, he sighed heavily, and stared blankly at the roof above his head.

"I don't know what the situation is now. If the soldiers and horses from North Korea can come back, then we can still be saved. If the soldiers and horses from North Korea can't come back, we are likely to repeat the same mistakes and become the second Toyotomi Hideyoshi!" Tokugawa Iemitsu said weakly.

Did he know how his grandfather treated Toyotomi Hideyoshi back then, so at this moment, he was also very afraid that this kind of thing would happen to him again.

"Our country is small and the people are few. For so many years, there have been constant earthquakes and strong winds. If we can change to a better place, it will be a great benefit.

We have experienced so many wars, if there is another war, it will be miserable, I am really sorry for the people of the world! "The Tokugawa family said miserable.

This is really ridiculous.

When sending troops to North Korea, this was not the rhetoric.

Now seeing that not only did he fail to reap any benefits, but he was about to fall into disaster, it was an extremely ridiculous joke to use these high-sounding words to deceive himself.

"General, don't worry, Kublai Khan was so brave back then, he overwhelmed the whole country in panic, but in the end, with the blessing of kamikaze, we survived this disaster. Now we are in a much better situation than before. , don’t worry too much at all!”

Doi Toshikatsu's cloudy eyes flickered a few lights, and then comforted him.

These words are nothing but self-deceiving words, Doi Toshikatsu himself knows it very well.

But if you don't say that, maybe you can make the Tokugawa family angry.

If they had passed on the spot, the Tokugawa shogunate would be finished.

"Oh, I just hope I can get through this.

If I can get through this hurdle safely, no matter what the chaos in the Central Plains is like in the future, I will never interfere again! " Tokugawa Iemitsu said.

This is still lying to myself.

These people are just a group of guys who don't eat shit.

When Tokugawa Ieyasu established the shogunate, he also formulated a policy of closing the country and preventing the generals of later generations from touching it at will.

In order to prevent the recurrence of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's disaster, it even stipulated that it is forbidden to send troops to North Korea at will.

However, Tokugawa Iemitsu completely took these words as fart.

These people, if they have a little strength at hand, they don't know what they are.

Doi Toshikatsu walked out of the shogun's mansion and on the road outside.

The cold autumn weather made him wrap his clothes tightly around his body.

A news that was colder than autumn was hitting him.

A warrior hurriedly ran towards him.

"Why are you panicking now, how can you disturb the general's sleep." Doi Toshikatsu reprimanded.

But this samurai was not stable, he was still the same as before.

He said anxiously: "There is a problem with the Hirado Clan. Matsuura Shinnobu blocked the road from Hirado Castle to Nagasaki, and even began to recruit farmers and train soldiers.

His navy is now cruising outside Nagasaki, no matter what kind of ship it is, it cannot go to sea.

A considerable part of his navy were warships that escaped from Zheng Zhilong's defeat. His strength is now very strong.

Our navy is no match for him at all."

"Hiss, this, this, this"

The words that the samurai said were like a thunderbolt, and Doi Toshikatsu was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

The Hirado clan was originally a powerful clan. Although its military strength was not as good as that of the Tokugawa shogunate, its economic strength was one of the best in the entire Wa Kingdom.

Back then, Hirado Castle was a major city for foreign trade.

Hongyi Guild Hall, Fran Chance Hall, and Zheng Zhilong are inextricably linked with them, so that their economic strength is particularly outstanding.

After Tokugawa Iemitsu came to power, he had always been afraid of the strength of the Hirado clan, so he abolished the trading status of Hirado Castle with heavy troops, and the Hongyi Guild Hall, etc., all moved to Nagasaki.

At the same time, he also instructed his subordinates to eat Nakayao in Hirado City and demanded a lot of money.

As a result, there was a great economic crisis in the Hirado Domain at that time.

It is impossible to say that the Hirado clan had no complaints against the Tokugawa shogunate.

However, when the Tokugawa shogunate was powerful, Matsuura Shinnobu would not say anything, and would just endure it.

But now, the strength of the Tokugawa shogunate has been greatly damaged, and the situation has undergone great changes.

At this time, Matsuura Shinnobu's full play of the Japanese tradition of lowering and lowering the upper limit.

No man can resist the glory of Guangzong Yaozu, and no man can resist the temptation of power.

This is the case with Matsuura Shinnobu today, he wants to be the second Tokugawa Ieyasu.

So, he started a series of small actions.

Now is a great time, God will grant it, and if you don't take it, you will suffer from it.

But Tokugawa Iemitsu has planted many spies under these daimyos for so many years, so the matter spread quickly.

Doi Lisheng kept sucking in the air-conditioning, cold sweat dripping down his forehead.

He hurriedly turned around and ran towards Tokugawa Iemitsu.

But after taking two steps, he stopped.

At this time, Tokugawa Iemitsu was seriously ill, and if he told him about this, there might be problems.

He looked around and said: "Don't tell the general beforehand, let's talk about it after his condition improves!"

A small Japanese country, and a small Tokugawa shogunate, Sun Jie didn't pay attention at all.

Just pull 2 people up, and the entire Wa country can be destroyed.

The elite of the Tokugawa shogunate are still trapped in North Korea and will collapse sooner or later, so Sun Jie doesn't have to worry about this problem at all.

It's still the same idea as before.

That is to attack the West.

This matter should be done as early as possible.

Get it early and make money early.

Sun Jie in the imperial study was playing with a globe.

This is a globe made by Sun Jie according to the geographical environment of this era and the country.

It's not small, it's as big as a basketball, and it's placed on the table, constantly turning.

"The farthest place Zheng He has ever been to was the Cape of Good Hope. If he could go further, he might be able to reach the West.

If Westerners at that time saw the treasure ships, they would not know how shocked they would be.

However, since the West has not been shocked by treasure ships, let them be shocked by ironclad ships. "

Speaking of this, Sun Jie flipped the globe, and then looked at Liang Shangxi beside him.

"Go and find Zheng Zhilong!" Sun Jie said.

Zheng Zhilong ended his campaign in Java a few days ago.

The whole of Java was taken down.

Not a single Hongyi on the island remained, their heads were all chopped off, burned into ashes, and thrown into the sea.

As for the local aborigines, it is necessary to give full play to their traditional arts.

Those who obey stay, those who disobey die.

Men, kill, women, stay.

As for Hongyi's accomplice, they can only be guests in the shark's stomach.

The air on land is obviously not suitable for them.

This is an old tradition of Zheng Zhilong.

When the land was reclaimed on Taiwan Yuan Island, the aborigines there were killed.

There has always been aboriginal life on Taiyuan Island, but in the end it was scattered by Zheng Zhilong.

Java has a large area, and because of limited manpower, the areas under its control are basically the coastline.

As for the inland, it is basically still in the wild.

Except for the places where people can mine, there are almost no people's land in other places.

Zhou Qi also became the governor of Java, in charge of Java affairs.

However, the governor at this time is more like a polished commander.

Except for the soldiers in their hands, there are almost no common people.

But this situation will be greatly improved.

A while ago, Sun Jie exiled some of the gentry in Nanzhili.

In addition, maritime laws and regulations were issued.

Regulations: Maritime merchants who go to Java to do business will have a [-]% tax reduction and will also be escorted by a navy. The goods they traffic will also have a certain amount of tax exemption.
As the saying goes, there are people in the business of killing people, but no one in the business of losing money.

Don't look at Southeast being baptized by Sun Jie, but there is never a lack of courageous people in this land.

These people have quick minds and know the huge profits of maritime trade.

So, he made ships and went to Java for trade.

The essence of trade is the exchange of goods.

The first prerequisite is that Java needs materials and people.

Don't worry about supplies, there are countless spices and jewels there, and transporting them to Daqin will be a lot of money.

As for people, there is no need to worry.

Not long ago, Sun Jie asked the Navy to help transport a group of construction teams to rebuild Xinfu City and important cities.

The choice of construction team members is entirely voluntary.

Even if you are thousands of miles away from your hometown, there is still demand for workers to yearn for.

Because Sun Jie said, he went to Java and divided the houses, land and wives.

The house is built slowly, the land is directly robbed, and the wife directly distributes it.

Of course, these wives are all Javanese women.

No single man can resist the temptation to divide his wife, from ancient times to the present, nothing more.

Speaking of which, this is also a traditional art skill.

Back then, when the Great Han conquered South Vietnam and Zhu Hongwu pacified Yunnan, this was the method.

The warlike people were never Huns, Jiannu or Tatars, but Haner.

He was willing to cut himself to pieces, and dared to pull the emperor off his horse.

Millennium civilization, millennium war.

The 5000-year history is actually an epic of resistance and suppression.

At the same time, 500 million silver dollars were allocated for the construction of Java.

Ask the canal how clear it is, because there is a source of flowing water.

This money is living water.

Living there is inseparable from Daming's supplies.

The money sent by Sun Jie will fall into the hands of these workers, then into the hands of maritime merchants, and finally into the hands of producers, sailors and others.

In this way, the economy was created, and the economy was revived in this way.

"My lord, I greet Your Majesty!"

Zheng Zhilong saluted respectfully.

Sun Jie nodded, signaling that he didn't have to.

"I came to you today because I have a matter for you!" Sun Jie said, looking at Zheng Zhilong in front of him.

"Please order, Your Majesty!" Zheng Zhilong replied.

Sun Jie said: "I want you to go to the west and do some business!"

"Going to the West for business?" Zheng Zhilong was a little surprised.

Going to the West is actually a bit far away.

After fighting for hegemony on the sea for so many years, he has never left this sea area.

To be honest, Zheng Zhilong wanted to visit it a long time ago.

However, the strength is not good, the warship in his hand is not as good as others, and it is their base camp, and he has been very busy, so he has not been able to go there.

Thinking of the scene of the ironclad ship laying on the sea, Zheng Zhilong couldn't stop himself.

"Your Majesty, what kind of business do you want to do with them? We are very powerful. We have ironclad ships here, so we can just grab their money!" Zheng Zhilong's voice became a little louder, and the pirate's personality was clearly seen.

"Of course we have to rob, but before robbing, let them fight among themselves and kill or injure a lot of people." Sun Jie said with a smile.

But this smile is like a devil in Zheng Zhilong's eyes.

"What does His Majesty mean?!"

"Sell them those weapons that are no longer used by the generals. Anyway, they are idle anyway. It is better to exchange them for money if they wait for them to get moldy.

Today's West is still at war, but their weapons are not good, and the number of people killed in each war is really limited. If they can be replaced with our weapons, their death toll will increase in an impossible manner.

When their brains are smashed into dog brains, we will be able to take down the entire West without destroying it.

Civilians certainly don't like war, and if there are too many dead, they will get tired of war.

When the time comes, our magic soldiers will descend from the sky, take maintaining peace as our own responsibility, and parachute to the west, we will surely conquer the hearts of the people! "

Sun Jie's voice was very calm, without any waves.

But in Zheng Zhilong's ears, it was like a stormy sea.

what is this?
This is murder.

This is actually not Sun Jie's original creation.

Isn't that what the modern "beautiful and beautiful free country" does?

Sell ​​arms to you first.

Wait until you are almost done fighting, and then send troops under the banner of peace.

Whether it is reason or law, there is nothing wrong with it.

The so-called one's way of repaying one's body.

This kind of good tactics, naturally let them enjoy it.

Zheng Zhilong's breathing became short of breath.

With these few short sentences, Sun Jie directly brought up his feelings.

Although evil and vicious, but with his appetite.

That's the kind of thing he likes.

Not only to kill the opponent's father, but also to make the opponent call him his father.

He licked his lips and said solemnly: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely fulfill my mission!"

Sun Jie nodded with a smile.

No one is more suitable than Zheng Zhilong.

This is a man of pirate origin, with a ruthless and sinister style.

For these people in the West, this kind of people should be used.

As for betrayal, Sun-jae doesn't have any worries.

The generals of the navy were basically single-handedly drawn out by Sun Jie. Even if Zheng Zhilong raised his arms a hundred thousand times, no one would follow him.
