Beiyang new warlord

"My general sent me here, willing to negotiate peace with Daming. Who is General Mao? As long as the general's Ming army is willing to retreat, my general is willing to cede Kyushu Island to General Mao, with an annual salary of 5 taels and rice grain of 50 shi !"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of almost all daimyos changed drastically, especially the three main daimyos of Kyushu Island, Shimadzu, Kuroda, and Nabeshima.

The problem is, Mao Jue nodded seriously, and accepted the covenant with a smile while they were short of breath.

But immediately, Mao Jue's action was so angry that the Tokugawa servant almost didn't draw his sword. He didn't even look at it. As soon as he stretched out his hand, Mao Jue casually threw the covenant book into the brazier, and immediately chased away flies. waved.

"I understand your general's proposal, you go back!"

"General Mao, you have to think about it! The shogunate's millions of troops are here. My general didn't want to hurt the peace with Daming, so he backed down this step. If you miss this opportunity, thousands of troops will kill you. The general will regret it!"

"General Mao has a marriage contract with His Royal Highness Chiyohime of my Toyotomi family, and he will be honored by my Toyotomi family, and his heir is also the adopted son of His Royal Highness Kunimatsumaru!"

Another sonorous voice rang out in the tent, and everyone's eyes fell on Kaidian who had been on the sidelines all this time. This remark was heavy news, and it made all the famous names of the Western Army feel as if they had taken a reassurance.

Just shrunk in a corner of the tent, the governor of Denglai Road, Yu Dacheng raised his eyelids violently, and turned his head hastily, while the eunuch Cao Xi hurriedly lowered his head.

Matsudaira Nobuzuna really wants to cede Kyushu?Fart! He is playing psychological warfare completely. Now the main force of the Western Army is the Dongjiang Ming Army, and the second is the Kyushu Army. Won.

What conditions did Kai Kaidian offer?Married with the Toyotomi family, the son was adopted by Kunimatsu Maru! It means that Mao Jue is the master of the Toyotomi family!If he wins, he will be a man of the world! How can a small Kyushu be comparable?

Completely speechless, after the waiter bowed, he immediately exited the tent, rolled up his sleeves, and Mao Jue lay down in front of the map.

"Everyone, continue, General Ikeda, what you said last time about how the Osaka Winter Battle was fought, and where did you go!"

This night's divorce was not planned, and it seemed that Nobuzuna Matsudaira had expected it. The next day, the 30 shogunate troops still relied on Osaka Castle, and it seemed that there was no plan to send troops at all, and they remained motionless.

After the last battle of Osaka, Osaka Castle was severely damaged once. However, instead of looking dilapidated, today’s Osaka Castle seems to be better than Toyotomi Hideyoshi’s era. After all, the Tokugawa family is pushing the Toyotomi world. In order to eliminate the influence of the Toyotomi family, after the Battle of Osaka, the second-generation general Tokugawa Hidetada ordered the reconstruction of Osaka Castle as an important stronghold for the Tokugawa family to rule Kansai. At least one million shi of grain has been stored, enough for the shogunate's army for a year.

Moreover, the terrain of Osaka Castle is inherently complex, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It was originally Ishiyama Honganji Temple, surrounded by Kizu River, Shimano River, and Hirano River. It is almost a peninsula floating island near the sea like Edo Castle. If you want to attack the city , first had to attack the river, and now the army of the Western Army is on the other side of the Kizu River, and the strategically important places that the Tokugawa family attacked, such as Chausu Mountain, Tennoji Temple, etc., were all in the hands of the shogunate. There is no way to speak.

Holding a small barrel telescope, looking at the opposite bank, Mao Jue also grinned.

To be honest, if the war drags on, even though the shogunate has twice as many people and eats more, Mao Jue is the one who can't go on.

After all, he came from afar, and the Western Kingdom just took over, and it is far from establishing a real rule. Those Japanese names are even more different. Once this war lasts for a long time, the shogunate will play some tricks behind their backs. Sooner or later, I have to go back in defeat.

You can attack the city! Sun Tzu's art of war says that if you are ten times, you will surround it, and if you are twice as many, you will attack it.

"We still have to lure the snake out of its hole!"

Putting down the binoculars, when he turned around, Mao Jue tilted his head at Li Shanhai who was also looking at the scenery of Osaka City.

"Master Li! I heard that across the sea, Jiyi Kingdom and Yamato Kingdom are all flat, fertile and wild, with rich products and beautiful scenery. Would you be interested in visiting?"

I really learned from those civil servants badly. They talked about robbery in such a polite way. Li Shanhai, who had just made a fortune in Shikoku Island, immediately lit up his eyes, laughed and clasped his fists at Mao Jue.

"This old man is just a bit of a hobby. He loves mountains and rivers. Of course, respect is worse than obedience!"

At noon that day, under the eyes of the shogunate army guarding the shore, more than 2 North Korean troops of the Lee family swaggered on board, and under the escort of the Dongjiang gunboat, swayed slowly and wretchedly drove behind them.

Immediately, the Eastern Kingdoms daimyo was in a hurry!

Chapter 287. Who can't help it first

There is no natural lamb, no matter how cowardly a man is, there is a beast in his heart, but he is locked up tightly by strict feudal rules and shackles composed of ethics and morality. But when the shackles of morality and ethics disappear, Everyone has the potential to be a beast.

The honest Lee clan's North Korean pariah has now become a beast.

"Wow ha ha ha! Flower girl! Don't run away!"

Smiling, the once honest country man rushed forward with a bloody knife in his hand. In front of him, a few girls in kimonos screamed and came into the room. Then, there were some familiar screams from the room. With a sound of panting, on the other end, a torch was thrown on the thatched house, watching the Japanese-style house with cherry blossoms blazing into a big candle, Pu Ada's face was full of ferocity and excitement.

This is how his house was burnt down by Japanese pirates. This is already the first time he has burned down, but every time he burns down, he can satisfy the raging beast in his heart.

There is no clear distinction between white and black between heaven and earth, now burning, killing and plundering, with bloody gold and silver in his waist, this Pu Ada can be regarded as heinous, but the Japanese pirates who did not go ashore burned his house first , forcing his family to be ruined twice, how could there be a beast today?

It's all about the times!

Just like the Roman Empire that was invaded by barbarians, every manor was turned into ruins. The head of the high-ranking local retainer Zhixing warrior was thrown into the water tank, and another Zhuangzi was wiped out. Satisfied, his body was hollowed out and he waved his hand.

"Go! Next!"

It is ironic enough to say that it was Toyotomi Hideyoshi who ordered the Japanese army of more than 20 to rub Lee's Joseon on the ground over and over again, but now, the soldiers of the Li Dynasty who are like locusts are attacking Toyotomi The banner of the family, fortunately, in the eyes of these guys, it doesn't matter what the ministers are or not, as long as they are Japanese, they are enemies to them. The Yamato, Hanoi, and Kii orders that have become empty due to the assembly of the shogunate The country was devastated.

It was not just an economic blow. Following the 5000 North Korean troops of the Lee family, a ronin force of about [-] headed straight for Kyoto under the leadership of Chang Zonggabu Yosuke.

Toyotomi's family is going to Luo!

This political significance is too great. Since the Onin Rebellion, with the Ashikaga family losing power, Shangluo Kyoto has become the dream of every Warring States daimyo. The success of Shangluo also marks the qualification to aspire to the world.

It's one thing for Song Xiance to steal Guan Bai's appointment letter secretly, but it's another thing for Shangluo to be so ostentatious. If the shogunate can't even stop Toyotomi's family Shangluo, how majestic is there to rule the world.

In the words of Uncle Li in "A World Without Thieves", it means that the hearts of the people are scattered and the team is not easy to lead! The shoguns ruled the world by relying on their reputation. Once this deterrence is gone, the Tokugawa family will wait again. It will be a pack of wolves.

The castle tower of Osaka Castle, the place where Toyotomi Hideyoshi sat, an unprecedented problem is placed in front of Tokugawa Iemitsu. His expression is almost the same as that of Toyotomi Hideyoshi facing the Great Ming Liaodong in the first battle of Imjin The same powerful military pressure is always the same.

At this time, Matsudaira Nobuzuna was in exactly the same situation as Ishida Mitsunari back then. Under the glaring gaze of the Wuxun faction, the old guy was still making his last effort.

"His Royal Highness, Kyoto has no strategic significance. Osaka Castle has stored food for the army for more than a year. Even if the Kii Peninsula is burned to white ground, it will have little impact on our army! But Akizuki Fan, Katsuyama Fan, and the island Someone from the Jin family has already contacted us, as long as there is another month, the future of the Toyotomi family will definitely be in chaos!"

"At that time, once the army comes out, it will definitely destroy the rotten ones!"

Matsudaira Nobutsuna was almost heartbroken, and his voice was crying blood. However, sitting on the throne, Tokugawa Iemitsu no longer had the look of support he used to, but remained silent.

Turning his head again, Nobuzuna Matsudaira sincerely looked at his biggest supporter.

"Master Qingshan!"

Aoyama Yukinari's wrinkled, withered old face couldn't help twitching. What Matsudaira Nobuzuna said, he was like a mirror in his heart, but as a veteran, he never considered military affairs, politics must occupy a large part, and, At this moment, the daimyos of the Martial Arts Faction had stopped talking, because their red eyes had already explained everything.

"His Royal Highness, declare war!"

"The Songping military department abandoned the city and abandoned the land. As a general, he was afraid of the enemy and did not move forward. The veteran suggested that he be taken down, and he will be punished after the thief is defeated!"

As Aoyama Xingcheng opened his mouth, Inaba Masakatsu also raised his voice. The combination of the two suggestions made Tokugawa Iemitsu's complexion violently uncertain, but within a second, he also nodded.

"allow!"

The two things are actually one thing. Nobuzuna Matsudaira offended the Wu Xun faction too deeply. If he becomes the general again, he will definitely not be able to convince the crowd. If he wants to defeat Mao Jue in one go, he must be replaced.

The result was immediate and immediate, the entire rank of daimyo was boiling, and it was really aggrieved for almost two months, and everyone was vying for the first place.

"I, Uesugi, decide to be the pioneer!"

"Pioneer must give me Date Tadamune!"
