Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 523

Since the "Nagasaki Change", Japan has entered a very strange period.The "Yingzhou Fan" from China led a tyrannical army and swept away the troops of the shogunate and daimyo. The disobedient samurai were executed one after another, and new ruling methods began to be created one after another on the territory controlled by Dongying Xuanfusi. The oppressed Japanese people suddenly felt that their shackles seemed to be liberated.Peasants obtained their own land, were able to enter rural schools, and were allowed to carry out industrial and commercial activities in big cities.

In fact, during the Edo period, there were many cases where farmers in rural areas were unable to support their families and came to big cities to work as traders. However, the Tokugawa shogunate's actions of focusing on agriculture and suppressing business also restricted their development.Now that the Xuanfusi era has arrived, it seems that various possibilities have opened up for the people here, so starting from Kyushu Island, the entire society suddenly became more active.

Since the people in the countryside have always been inferior people, they do not have family names and surnames. When the Xuanfu Division came, they notified all the people that they could take surnames and register them with the civil affairs department of the Xuanfu Division.In fact, this operation is also mandatory, requiring civilians to have a surname, which is also easier to manage.In the reference list of various surnames provided by the Xuanfu Division, all the surnames published are Chinese surnames, such as Zhang Wang, Li Zhao and so on.Considering that 95% of the Japanese in the other dimension began to obtain surnames after the Meiji Restoration, the surnames they took were extremely casual. There were a large number of naturalistic surnames such as pork bones, beef intestines, Tanaka, and Kameshima, so these Many people in the countryside randomly specify a word in the directory, and it becomes the surname that their family will inherit in the future.

At that time, the people who got their surnames received a piece of paper with their names written on them at the household registration office. Most of them did not understand Chinese characters, but they had to keep them carefully.During this period, the names of many Dongying people were names such as Zhang Tailang, Wang Zuemon, and Liu Lumaru.

Surprisingly, in the face of the powerful strength and skill of the Xuanfu Division of the Great Ming Dongying, most of the Dongying people are still relatively obedient.The Wu family who resisted more fiercely were basically uprooted. Even if they were not killed, they were directly put on ships and taken away. Many people were sent to the Meng and Burma Xuanwei Division, or to some more remote colonies as labor force.

In contrast, the Tokugawa shogunate was almost numb to the ever-expanding Japanese Xuanfu Division. In addition to mobilizing an army to guard Edo and the most important Gosan family, General Tokugawa Ietsuna was basically decentralized in most areas.The shogunate's control over some daimyos has now reached its lowest point, and some foreign daimyos have even begun to openly disobey the orders of the shogunate.

Some daimyos secretly contacted the Xuanfu Division, hoping to change their sects while retaining their separatist status. This is obviously impossible. Many related feudal clans have expressed this opinion, but they have also been eliminated by the Dongying Fan army one after another.Zheng Chenggong's attitude on this matter is very clear, that is, Dongying wants to completely end the feudal era and realize the unified and unitary system managed by the Xuanfu Department.

Zheng Chenggong said that it was okay to surrender, but they must completely give up political power. The Xuanfu Division would grant them the title of Xuanfu Division, which was almost a mascot. They were also allowed to retain some of their properties, but the right to carry swords and retain the army was definitely not allowed. Can.It is not natural for them to enter the office of the Xuanfu Division. Unless their relatively strong abilities are recognized, they will be specially appointed. Otherwise, like everyone else, they have to take the civil service examination.

To put it simply, the various reforms of the Xuanfu Division are actually following the Ming Dynasty's system, but some localized changes have been made for the situation in Japan.

Outside Edo Bay, 32 warships of the Ming Navy, 7 small warships of the Dongying Fan Army, and other ships of the Global Fleet are already in place.

Zheng Chenggong is in a very good mood. Generally, when he can overwhelm others with great power, he cannot be in a bad mood.Sometimes it is very uneconomical and reasonable to shoot mosquitoes with cannons, but if you can use cannons casually, you don't think so.

Zheng Chenggong smiled as warmly as the spring breeze and said to Bai Mingxiu: "General Wang, the main force of our Japanese army, about 28000 people, has passed Mount Fuji and is preparing to enter Edo. There is also a group of troops in Kyoto, preparing to enter the city directly to control the situation. "

Edo and Kyoto can be said to be the two most important cities in Japan. The Xuanfu Division controlled most of Kansai, but did not enter Kyoto, and still displayed the emperor as a display.But when Zheng Chenggong decided to thoroughly clarify the situation in Japan, there was naturally no need to keep it.

He said with a smile: "The name of Kyoto is too taboo. In the past, this place was called 'Ping An Jing'. After the arrival of Dongying, it will restore its name of Ping An. The so-called Jing character, let's take it off."

At this moment, Edo has not yet become Tokyo, so it doesn't hurt to continue to use this name.

Zheng Chenggong's repeated layouts have shaped the momentum of Daming's invasion of Edo by water and land, and even Bai Mingxiu admires it.Destroying Japan and the Tokugawa shogunate with all-powerful force, followed by sending a hundred men to take down Edo Castle are two completely different things.Behind this is the means and courage of Daming. Zheng Chenggong, who has part of Japanese blood, deeply understands the characteristics of the Japanese who are afraid of power but not moral, so when Daming overthrew the Tokugawa shogunate with an irresistible gesture, the overthrow lasted for a thousand years After the emperor's line, the Japanese will inevitably obey obediently.

Hundreds of Ming ships sailed into Edo Bay, forming an extremely spectacular scene on the sea. The densely packed ships were flying the flag of Ming Dynasty, and their black muzzles were pointing at Edo Castle.At the same time, the Dongying Fan Army also came to the outskirts of Edo Castle, and a crisis finally arrived.

The shogunate's old man, Sakai Tadaki, was already anxious like ants on a hot pot at this time, and his head was battered.He came to Tokugawa Iezuna's keep, but found that there was no one there.

"Where is the public?" Sakai Tadaki quickly grabbed a small surname and asked General Tokugawa Ietsuna's whereabouts.

Xiao Xing replied in fear: "Yu Dian set off this morning to go hunting."

Sakai Zhongqing didn't want to be too angry when he heard this, he scolded: "It's this time, how can the public be so contemptuous?"

Xiao Xing looked at the old man's face, and said carelessly: "The general said, since the shogunate will be knocked down sooner or later, it's better to enjoy the fun. If there is really a Ming army attacking, then simply surrender and do it." A rich man can..."

Sakai Tadaki was stunned after hearing this. He had always felt that General Tokugawa Ietsuna was not very intelligent. He worked hard as a veteran for the shogunate's affairs.But at this time, he actually had a little misconception. Who was smarter, him or the general?
