Chapter 317 Raiding the Japanese Country
Kunming, Yunnan, is a place where spring is like all the year round, and it is a typical spring city.

It's golden autumn now, but the fragrance of birds and flowers is still here, and all kinds of flowers are constantly blooming in and outside the city.

The vibrant scene is completely incompatible with Zhang Xianzhong at this time.

Zhang Xianzhong in the main hall was frowning, and the atmosphere became more and more gloomy.

Although there were quite a few people standing, they had no idea at this moment, nor did they know where they should go.

Kunming has been almost moved by Zhu Yujian and Mu Tianbo, basically there is nothing left.

Even this huge Mu Wang Mansion has become an empty shelf, and it is somewhat difficult to piece together a complete table and chairs.

Sun Kewang was standing under Zhang Xianzhong, his face was very ugly.

The current Zhang Xianzhong is still the emperor of Daxi, but his status has been far from before and after.

To put it bluntly, there is almost no difference between the words Zhang Xianzhong and the lost dog at this time.

He kept sighing, and the atmosphere in the hall became more and more oppressive.

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that this surnamed Sun is so powerful, how could he have such a terrifying thing?"

Zhang Xianzhong shook his head, thinking of the tanks he saw that day, he was terrified.

It is also because of the high mountains and dense forests here in Yunnan, and the roads are impassable, that's why he chose this place.

He thought that this complex terrain should be a natural barrier, which should be able to keep Sun Jie's tanks out.

"You all tell me, what should we do now? Boss, what's your opinion?"

Zhang Xianzhong looked at Sun Kewang.

Only then did Sun Kewang raise his head.

He looked at Zhang Xianzhong, held back for a long time but couldn't say anything.

Zhang Xianzhong looked at the others again.

But almost everyone who was touched by his eyes lowered their heads, and no one could tell why.

This made Zhang Xianzhong even more distressed.

After a long time, he patted his thigh and walked out of the hall.

At the same time, Sun Jie, who was far away in Chang'an City, finally met Li Dingguo, the famous two kings in history.

It's just that the place where they met was a bit awkward, and it was in the prison in Chang'an City.

Li Dingguo is now a prisoner.

He sat upright in the cell, and when he looked at Sun Jie outside the cell, he didn't squint, without any respect in his eyes.

The whole person is like a sharp sword, showing its sharpness.

Although he was in a deep hole, there was no begging for mercy.

"You are Zhang Xianzhong's fourth child, right? Your name is Zhang Dingguo." Sun Jie asked,
Li Dingguo is still named after Zhang Xianzhong, so he is also called Zhang Dingguo.

"What if it is? What if it isn't?"

Li Dingguo snorted coldly.

"You are a malleable talent, and your ability is indeed very strong." Sun Jie said.

"Hmph!" Li Dingguo continued to snort coldly.

Sun Jie was not annoyed, but shook his head with a smile.

Such a person is like this, if he surrenders and rebels easily, then something is wrong.

Sun Jie didn't say anything else, and left here after standing for a while.

There are still some things to deal with, and we can't keep dragging them here.

……

A few days ago, the second wave of envoys sent by Tokugawa Iemitsu entered Chang'an City again.

I beg Sun Jie to spare his life, to be able to undo the blockade between North Korea and Wa, and let them go back.

Of course Sun Jie would not do this, the duck he got would not be able to fly.

So put those messengers here.

Not only that, a few days ago, Sun Jie also sent a large number of spies to the Wa country to investigate the enemy's situation, collect intelligence, and draw maps.

The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength.

Sun Jie went with the aim of destroying the Japanese kingdom, so naturally he had to involve everything in order not to beat the snake to death.

In Daqin University, there is a special college called Secret Service College.

Specially responsible for training agents, spies, spies.

The students here are flexible, thoughtful, loyal, and speak several languages.

Today's spies have come to the country of Wa.

Iwami Ginzan was the largest silver mine in the Edo period of the Tokugawa shogunate. It is estimated that its output was as high as about one-third of the world at that time.

In the age of great voyages, it can account for one-third of the global silver production, which is evident in its scale.

After Tokugawa Ieyasu established the shogunate, he naturally would not let go of such a delicious place, so he sent troops to occupy it.

And here, it has also become a major economic pillar of the Tokugawa shogunate.

The mining of Iwami Ginzan continued until the Meiji period, at least 300 years of reserves.

Such a rich place, Sun Jie naturally would not let it go.

Iwami Silver Mountain is located in Iwami Country, and its output was not high at first. Until the 12th year of Jiajing, Ouchi Yoshitaka recruited Ming craftsmen, learned new technologies, and used the sootblowing method to refine silver, which doubled the silver output every day.

At that time, Iwami Yinshan had an annual output of one million taels.

This is still a conservative estimate. If the production capacity is expanded, the quantity will be even more.

After the production of Iwami Yinzan increased, the surrounding daimyo Ouchi Yoshihide, Ouchi Yoshitaka father and son, Nizi Nasuhisa, Nizi Haruhisa grandson, and Mori Moto broke out many wars for the dominance of Yinzan, and later fell in Tokugawa In the hands of the shogunate, it is under its direct jurisdiction.

This is the core area of ​​the Tokugawa shogunate, where there are heavy soldiers, and ordinary people are prohibited from entering and leaving.

But today, a few strangers came to Iwami Yinshan.

These people are craftsmen from Onsentsu Town. It is said that there are newer techniques that can increase the production capacity of Yinshan.

Today's Yinshan adheres to Yasuhara Chuanbei and these craftsmen to investigate near Yinshan.

Ginzan holds a high official position and can meet Tokugawa Iemitsu directly.

"This is the Iwami Silver Mountain, which produces millions of taels of silver every year..."

Yasuhara Denbei stopped in front of a mine, pointed at the mine, and said to the people behind him.

These people are the spies sent by Sun Jie. Not long ago, they came to Wenquanjin on the grounds of the escaped craftsmen of Ming Dynasty.

And this hot spring town is one of the main transit places for Iwami Ginzan silver. The main purpose of these people is Iwami Ginzan.

"Yoxi, very good, very good!"

The leader, Chen Pinghe, speaks fluent Japanese.

He claimed that his mother was originally a Japanese woman from the Satsuma clan, and later she met her father who was a pirate and gave birth to him, and because of his father's incident, he was pretended to be a craftsman by the Ming Dynasty government.

All in all, it's bullshit.

If it was before, Yasuhara Denbei would not have believed it too much.

But now, Tokugawa Iemitsu's elite is trapped in North Korea and cannot return, and the shogunate urgently needs to expand its troops.

And expanding the military force requires silver, and the shogunate issued a death order to expand production capacity.

Anyuan Chuanbing went to the doctor in a hurry, and went to various places to find a way, and finally met Chen Pinghe and the others.

"With our improvement, the annual production capacity can be greatly increased!" Chen Pinghe said confidently.
