Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 593

There are very few grain fields on Mashima Island, and it can be said that the supplies are very poor.Therefore, in order to survive, foreign trade is necessary.And the object of trade can only be North Korea.Therefore, although the Ma Fans also participated in the Japanese war against Korea, after the war, they actively negotiated with North Korea to resume trade.

Thanks to the efforts of the two generations of Tsushima lords, that is, through the mediation of Zong Yicheng and his father, trade relations with North Korea were finally re-established in Busan.

Therefore, Zong Yicheng can be said to know North Korea very well, and knows what is going on in North Korea today.

When the country of Korea was destroyed, most of the Koreans were either plundered or killed by Jian captives. The rest fled into the mountains and became bandits, hid in the islands as pirates, the weak preyed on the strong, and the old, weak, sick and disabled were basically eliminated.

For Tsushima Fan, the only ones who can harass them are the North Korean pirates.Don't say it, don't look at Tsushima Fan is the famous name of Japan's [-] stones, but this Tsushima Fan is actually very weak, and it is the master that North Korea can bully.Those North Korean pirates can't survive, so they will naturally bully the Ma Fan.

At this time, Zong Yisheng, opposite Busan on the natural road, was where the Japanese army was stationed. Not to mention the army, the navy alone had thousands of warships.With such a huge force, generally speaking, the Korean pirates would be able to escape as far as they wanted.

But now, the cannons are rumbling, and the North Korean pirates simply don't have the strength to bombard such a large scale. It can only be the roar of the warships of the Dawa State Navy.As for the target, who else could it be besides the North Korean pirates?Thinking of this, he wondered, could it be that the Navy of the Great Japanese Kingdom seemed bored and practiced with Korean pirates, so that when they went to the north in the future, the Navy of the Ming Dynasty could have more grasp?

No matter how much he thought about it, he never thought that the Daming navy would appear here so soon and take the initiative to attack the Japanese navy.

Therefore, after Zong Yicheng saw it, he couldn't believe his eyes immediately, and quickly confirmed to the left and right: "Who has good eyesight, look at the attacking warships on the opposite side, what is the origin?"

Although his eyesight is not very good, he can still tell if it is not a warship of the Japanese navy.

"My lord, that is the warship of the Daming Navy!" One of his old attendants immediately said in surprise after hearing what he said, "Besides, there are so many warships besides the Daming Navy. In addition, other forces are impossible!"

Having said this, he paused and then added: "Sir, you were not born before. The Ming Dynasty navy has been here before. Their navy can be understood by just taking a look at it from a distance."

"The Ming Dynasty Navy?" Zong Yicheng was shocked when he heard this. He could not imagine why the Ming Dynasty Navy suddenly came to the southernmost tip of the Korean Peninsula, so he said suspiciously, "You old thing, your eyes are dim. Are you afraid that you have misjudged it? Then if it is the Ming Dynasty Navy, if you calculate the time, wouldn't it be that the Japanese country had just landed in North Korea and they had already set off to come? Is this possible? "

In order to prove that he was right, he added after he finished speaking: "It's okay if you come here by chance, but look at it, with such a big fight, could it be that you came here by chance? It must be deliberate, just come here The one who attacked the Japanese Navy! Look at this posture, maybe they have been waiting for this sudden opportunity!"

Emperor Chongzhen didn't hear their conversation, otherwise he would definitely praise his golden finger.

What is the most important thing in fighting?Is it because the army has not moved, and the food and grass go first?

wrong!
The most important thing is the news!If you can get reliable information from the enemy in advance, even if there is no food, the enemy will naturally give it to you!
As long as you have timely and reliable information, you will basically win half the battle, or more.As a result, they often start wars by surprise and attack them unprepared, so the Jianlu are strong, right?It’s not like the country has been destroyed!What's wrong with your Japanese country? You still have to suppress them and let these Japanese people taste all the tastes that the former Japanese captives experienced!
Without this golden finger, to be honest, it would not be so easy to eliminate Jianlu or conquer the Wa Kingdom.

Someone once proposed that Emperor Chongzhen achieved the five-year Ping Liao period, but he failed to achieve it. One possibility is that that person's golden finger has not been activated yet, or there is a malfunction or something.

At this time, Zong Yicheng said that within his understanding, it was not unreasonable, and immediately won the nod of his other subordinates.

When the older subordinate saw it, he was overjoyed immediately, and he didn't dare to speak nonsense to Zong Yicheng, so he shouted to those accomplices who agreed: "Come on, whoever wants to bet with me, 100 taels of silver, it's the Ming Dynasty!" If it belongs to the navy, give me 100 taels of silver, if it is not from the navy of the Ming Dynasty, I will pay you 100 taels, and I will never renege on my debt!"

Although Tsushima Island is very poor in supplies, there is a lot of silver. Many people have already suspected that there is a mountain of silver that has not been discovered.In the original history, when Zong Yicheng's son became the feudal lord, he finally got his wish and unearthed Sasu's silver mine.

However, although these Japanese people were rich, 100 taels of silver was still a lot. When they heard that he was so determined to bet, no one dared to speak.

And Zong Yicheng also believed his words, and couldn't help being shocked: "So, Daming discovered the intention of the Great Japanese Kingdom so quickly, and sent troops to fight it, then...then..."

"My lord, the navy of the Great Wa Kingdom is definitely going to be finished!" The old man said without much surprise, "I think that when the kingdom of Wa was strong, it was defeated by the navy of the Ming Dynasty. I believe that the people in Busan would not have thought of it. Now that they are blocked by the Ming Dynasty Navy, I think the whole army will definitely be annihilated!"

Hearing his somewhat disrespectful remarks about Japan, Zong Yicheng was not angry at all, or he didn't care at all. Instead, he followed this statement and thought, if the navy of Japan was taken over by the navy of Ming Dynasty, what would happen to North Korea? What about the Japanese army in the territory?Can so many people escape?If they cannot escape, the strength of the Japanese country will be greatly reduced, and the Tokugawa shogunate may not be able to suppress the daimyo of various places, or even if one fails, another Tokugawa Ieyasu will appear!

Thinking about it so deeply, although Zong Yicheng's eyes were fixed on the other side, he didn't see it in his mind at all, but his mind changed sharply: This is a change that has not happened in the Great Wa Kingdom for decades. It's a very critical time!

There is no such thing as Zongyicheng's loyalty to the Tokugawa shogunate.

In the eighth year of Chongzhen, it was discovered by the shogunate that he had had contacts with Lee's North Korea, and that he had forged his credentials, and was facing the crisis of being changed.It's just that the current master of the shogunate, Tokugawa Iemitsu, felt that the little Tsushima Fan did not pose any threat to him at all, and finally ruled to punish the old Yanagawa for mobilization, so that the main family was saved from being changed.

What the Zong family did was actually determined by the basic situation of Tsushima Island.

While Zong Yicheng was thinking, suddenly, he heard someone screaming, "My lord, look quickly, my lord, look quickly, fire, fire, it's burning!"

Zong Yicheng came back to his senses and took a closer look. Sure enough, he saw the direction of Busan port opposite, and he could already see the fire.Needless to say, some warships were on fire, and the fire was not small. It should be because there were a lot of burning warships.

"Haha, you don't even have to look at it to know that the Ming Dynasty navy must have invaded, and their arson ships have begun to show off their power!" The older man looked at it and smiled, and then saw the feudal lord and others looking at him. Then he explained, "You may not know that arson has always been what the Ming Navy is best at. Let me tell you, among the warships of the Ming Navy, there are two types of ships that are often used for arson!"

Speaking of this, seeing that the others didn't interrupt, his interest became even higher, and he even stretched out his fingers to count: "First, the Daming Navy has a serial ship, which is light, about four feet long, and looks like One ship is actually two ships. The front ship accounts for one-third, the rear ship accounts for two-thirds, and the middle is connected by two iron rings. The front ship has many large inverted beard nails, which are loaded with fireballs, magic smoke, magic sand, and poison. Fire, and fire blunderbuss, and the rear boats are equipped with oars to carry the soldiers. In wartime, sail straight to the enemy's line with the wind, the front boat is nailed to the enemy boat, and all kinds of firearms are lit, and the iron rings are released at the same time, and the rear boat can return. "

Speaking of this, he pouted at Busan and continued: "After the rear ship returned, the front ship was in flames, and the enemy ship was set on fire. No, it was on fire!"

No one interrupted him, so he stretched out another finger and said: "There is also a kind of ship in the Daming Navy, called the son-mother ship, which is also light. There are side boards on both sides, and the inside is empty. There is a small boat with a cover plate and four oars to row. It is tied to the mother ship with ropes. The mother ship has firewood, oil, and gunpowder. The descendants of the mother ship return in the daughter ship."

Speaking of this, he concluded with a little pride: "Since the Daming Navy took the initiative to attack the Japanese Navy in Busan Port, there must be a lot of these two types of ships. You see, this is not miraculous, right?"

Everyone, including Zong Yicheng, looked at the side of Busan Port, the flames were already raging into the sky, and the fire was bigger than before, so they couldn't help being dumbfounded.

After a while, one person suddenly asked the older accomplice: "How do you know so clearly?"

Hearing this, the man finally showed a trace of fear and said: "After the defeat in the Korean War, I was afraid that Daming would take advantage of the victory to pursue and would not give up on Japan. Therefore, regarding the situation of the Daming Navy, it was time to investigate. But fortunately Daming didn't have that intention at that time."

Having said that, after he paused, he looked at Zong Yicheng and said, "I just don't know if Daming will take advantage of the victory this time and pursue it?"

Seeing the surprised look on the feudal lord's face, he added: "I once heard an old saying from the Ming Dynasty, one cannot be the same, you must be prepared to deal with it!"
