My Daming New Empire

Suddenly, he heard a commotion outside.Before he could react, his nephew, Zong Zhenliang, the leader of his bodyguard, suddenly opened the door and rushed in. "Patriarch, let's go, Hayata Zaemon has rebelled."

"Reverse? What is reversed?"

Before Zong Zhenliang even had time to explain, he lifted Zong Zhenmao's quilt rudely, revealing Zong Zhenmao's skinny body, and the concubine's beautiful body.

Another large group of people rushed in, all members of the Zongzhen family, all of them looked terrified.

No one looked at the little concubine, some were timid, and even started to cry.

Such embarrassment made Zong Zhenmao very angry. He jumped up from the bed, waved his hand and gave Zong Zhenliang a big mouth. "Bastard, who are you so courageous!"

Zong Zhensheng, who has always been simple and honest, shouted: "Father, the situation is urgent. The army led by Zaemon Hayata has already attacked."

At this time, Zong Zhenmao finally came to his senses and quickly put on his clothes. "How could Hayata-kun rebel?"

"It's Da Ming's fleet, father, Da Ming's fleet has surrounded the entire Tsushima Island! Hayata Zaemon led countless Da Ming soldiers, and they have already killed the island! Let's run away..."

"Withdraw, run to the back of the mountain, Zhilang, you take your brothers and sisters and run quickly."

Zong Zhenmao is very aware of the strength of Zaemon Hayata, such a person who knows his details like the palm of his hand, has now become an enemy, and they can only temporarily avoid the edge.

What's more, behind them, there is a stronger Daming navy.

"Father, what about you?"

Zong Zhenmao smiled bitterly and said: "If I am not here, who can resist the attack of Hayata Zaemon? How can I buy time for you? Go!"

The sound of fighting outside the house was getting closer, Zong Zhenmao sternly shouted: "You guys go, I'm going to check the situation..."

Having lived most of his life, Zong Zhenmao is not afraid of death.He was just curious, why Hayata Zaemon, as a Japanese pirate, dared to rebel!

Without the buffer of the Zong family, no matter how much his power expands, it will only be a momentary fire.

Neither North Korea nor Japan would recognize a Japanese pirate force, so why would Daming prefer to support Zaemon Hayata instead of the Zong family?

He hoped to meet a general of Ming Dynasty, so that he could negotiate to get the other party to retreat.

There are only more than 5000 people in Tsushima Island, and the family strength of the Zong family does not exceed [-] people. Not to mention compared with the behemoth of Ming Dynasty, North Korea and Dongying are both behemoths to them.

A large number of women and children fled to the back mountain in a hurry, and even the young girl who was sleeping next to him just now ran out in disheveled clothes.

Zong Zhenmao tidied up his clothes, picked up the long knife from the bedside that he hadn't used for a long time, and walked out.

His residence was originally in the backyard, but at this time, the enemy had already invaded the backyard. Although the few family warriors were resisting the enemy, they had no morale.

A few days ago, these warriors were still their close friends, and many of them had a drink and chat together.But today, they have become enemies, one by one wished to devour them alive.

It's not that they don't understand, the world is changing fast.

Zong Zhenmao recognized a samurai named Takeshi Asada, who was also one of Hayata Zaemon's most loyal fans.Zong Zhenmao shouted loudly: "Stop, Mr. Asada, why is this so?"

A trace of unbearableness flashed in Asada Takeshi's eyes. He still clearly remembered that last year, he almost died of a serious illness, and it was the doctor sent by Zong Zhenmao who saved him.

He put away his knife and stood solemnly: "My lord, I'm sorry!" Seeing him stop, the others also stopped, and the atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly froze.

Zong Zhenmao shouted loudly: "Why is this so? Why did you draw your saber to face each other! If Hayata-kun really wants the old man's head, as long as I can spare other people, it doesn't matter if I give it to him!"

Asada clasped his fists together and said: "Patriarch, the sacred will is hard to disobey. Either you die today, or I die. We are also forced to do nothing!"

At this time, there was a sudden burst of fierce gunfire outside, and Asada had a flash of pain on his face, and said, "Majesty, if you die, maybe we can kill fewer people."

"why is that?"

A familiar voice came over and said loudly, "Majesty, let me tell you!"

The two sides in the fight saw Hayata Zaemon walk into the courtyard, followed by a group of Ming soldiers, each of them was a head taller than ordinary Japanese soldiers.

And in their hands, they were still holding muskets. In groups of six, they formed different small phalanxes.

Hayata Zaemon felt uncomfortable. During most of his wandering life, it was this old man who gave him the most stable life.

He never thought of turning against the Zong family, even though he now controls most of the power on the island, but he never had any second thoughts about the Zong family.

This is not because of his gratitude, but because both North Korea and Dongying only recognize the Zong family.He also needs an umbrella to protect these homeless Japanese pirates from the wind and rain.

He bowed deeply to Zong Zhenmao, straightened up and said: "My lord, we are all finished. Daming dispatched nearly [-] huge boats, surrounded Jeju Island, and captured us all. Now, the army has also surrounded Tsushima Island."

Zong Zhenmao widened his eyes and said: "Since you can all survive, why can't you introduce my Zong family to the general of the Ming Dynasty? Don't they need the effectiveness of the Zong family?"

Hayata Saemon shook his head and said, "Only with the complete extinction of the Zong family can Da Ming accept this island in a legitimate way. So, Majesty, everyone else may still survive, but you..."

Zong Zhenmao's heart suddenly became cold, he had already heard the meaning of Hayata Zaemon's words.This also shattered his last hope.

If Daming really wanted to occupy Tsushima Island, indeed, the members of their Zong family must all perish.

He murmured, "How many people does Daming have?"

He only hoped that Daming had fewer soldiers, so that his juniors who fled could still escape.

But Hayata Zaemon's words made him completely desperate. "It's an army of one hundred thousand!"

There are less than 5000 people in the entire Tsushima Island including old and young women and children. This [-] army is not something they can resist.

He bowed deeply to Hayata Zaemon and said: "Hayata-kun, in view of our past friendship, please take me to meet the general of the Ming army!"

Hayata Saemon nodded heavily and said: "I can only recommend you to the Commander of Jin Yiwei, Mr. Zhuang Jing, and the Commander of the Second Fleet, General Yi Xin. But, Majesty, the commander of the fleet this time is His Royal Highness, the grandson of Daming, even I will not have the chance to see him."

"It turned out to be the grandson of the Ming Dynasty..." Zong Zhenmao couldn't help but muttered to himself: "Could this be the decision made by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty? Could it be that the sky is going to kill our Zong family!"

Although Zong Zhenmao had already been captured without a fight, the fight was not over yet.Or it is more appropriate to say that massacre, the early morning attack caused countless people to be harvested in their sleep.

Zong Zhenmao's heart was filled with despair when he saw a person's head being carried out from room to room by soldiers of Ming Dynasty and those Japanese pirates.

Even if he could save one life, the Zong family would be finished.

Although he was lucky, in fact, the fate of their family had already been decided from the very beginning.

If all members of the Zong family don't die, as long as blood remains, then Daming's rule over Tsushima Island is not legal.

Daming wants North Korea and Japan to find nothing wrong with Daming's occupation of Tsushima Island, so all future troubles must be resolved.

Some things can be done but cannot be said, and some things can only be said but not done.

No matter how powerful Ming is, it still has to follow some rules in order to convince the surrounding small countries.

Therefore, when Zong Zhenmao was taken to Yi Xin's car, Yi Xin, who already knew Zhu Zhanji's plan, did not respond to Zong Zhenmao's request, and did not even give him the chance to meet Zhu Zhanji.

"Your Majesty, the two countries are at war, and there is no personal relationship. The moment Tsushima Island became the Japanese pirate base, the fate has already been doomed. So, let me send the Majesty on the road!"
