The Ming Dynasty's Spokesperson

What is your use? The very dissatisfied Governor Konishi thought hard, and after thinking about it, the question became: What use do I have to Jingluo Gong?

Finally, President Konishi suddenly raised his head and said: "The Duke of Jinglue can at least persuade me to work carefully and return to Seoul to inquire about the intelligence of the defenders for Duke Jinglue! It is not impossible for me to consider agreeing!"

As long as his thinking is broad enough, how could he, Governor Konishi, not be of any value?

These words needed to be translated by Shen Weijing, but Shen Weijing was stunned! Xiaoxi-kun, are you serious when you say this?

The Duke of Jinlue has already said that he will let you go, so why are you so eager to do something? You even said that you should consider it carefully.

Shen Weijing once thought he knew the Japanese very well, but now he finds that he only has a superficial understanding.

President Xiaoxi looked at Shen Weijing and urged, "Why hasn't Mr. Shen translated it?"

You have to prove yourself no matter what, and you can't be thrown away like useless trash!

It is a disgrace to be regarded as a completely useless person and be of no importance even if he is let go!

Shen Weijing didn't know what to say. At this moment, he finally felt vaguely that Lin Tianshuai's words and deeds of being extremely derogatory and dismissive of others seemed to be a routine.

Moreover, it is a more advanced routine than the tricks of deception, abduction, and deception that I am used to, and the threshold for use is also higher.

To use this method of belittling and dismissing others, you must first ensure that you have the strength not to be retaliated against.

Lin Tianshuai obviously will not be retaliated from his personal force to the power in his hands. In other words, most people are simply unable to retaliate against Lin Tianshuai.

Since those who have been tricked cannot take revenge on Tianshuai, they can only find ways to prove themselves, just like Yukinagako Konishi's current state.

Shen Weijing thought a little too much and was in a daze for a while.

Lin Tailai slapped the case with dissatisfaction and scolded: "Why are you distracted? Could it be that you can't even translate well?"

Shen Weijing came to his senses and quickly replied: "My admiration for Mr. Jin Lue is like the ocean, so I was shocked and lost my mind for a moment."

Lin Tailai had heard so much flattery recently that he was a little tired of it now, so he said impatiently: "Do your job first!"

Shen Weijing restored the meaning of Konishi Yukinaga to Lin Tailai in Chinese as much as possible.

Then he suggested: "These may be President Konishi's angry words in a moment of anger, but they are enough to prove that his inner defenses have been broken.

If Jing Lue Gong makes use of it, he might not be able to let Mr. Konishi do the detailed work. "

Lin Tailai glanced at Shen Weijing first, and then said disdainfully to Governor Konishi: "I know all about the information about the Seoul garrison. Why do I need you to take it seriously?"

President Konishi obviously didn't believe it and retorted: "Why is Lord Jinglue teasing me with such wild words?"

Lin Tailai liked to attack such unconvinced people and immediately replied: "The total number of Japanese troops in Seoul is about 40,000 to 50,000.

Your general, Ukita Hideya, is in Seoul, and directly under his command are tens of thousands of men from the Seven Corps.

Yukinaga Konishi, you saved Ukita Hideie's father when you were young, and then you were promoted from merchant to samurai, right?

There are also three corps and tens of thousands of people who were withdrawn from Huanghai Road.

The commander of the third corps, Kuroda Nagamasa, is the eldest son of the Toyotomi family's chief military officer Kuroda Nosui. He is the youngest commander of the corps. He is only twenty-four or five years old this year. He came to North Korea this time to gild his qualifications.

You Guan Bai were afraid that Kuroda Nagamasa was young and could not control the situation, so he sent Otomo Yoshitomi to be Kuroda Nagamasa's assistant. Unfortunately, Otomo was a cowardly and incompetent waste.

Previously when you were guarding Pyongyang, Kuroda Nagamasa sent Otomo Yoshitoshi from Hwanghaido to support Pyongyang. However, after he heard the terrifying sound of artillery fire from our heavenly soldiers from a distance, he turned around and went back without paying any attention to you who were trapped in Pyongyang.

There are also five corps in Seoul, led by Masanori Fukushima, the leader of the seven guns of Shiyue, and the second is the dead Kato Kiyomasa.

Most of the troops of the Sixth Corps are also in Seoul. The commander-in-chief, Kobayakawa Takakage, is a veteran of your Warring States period. His subordinates are very capable and played the most important role in the previous Battle of Bitokan."

Lin Tianshuai talked eloquently, knew the situation of the Japanese army well, and even talked about some secret interpersonal relationships.

President Konishi: "."

Get out of the eight million gods in Gao Tianyuan! Who can tell him what's going on?

Shen Weijing looked at President Xiaoxi with sympathy. Fortunately, he had experienced this kind of impact before and had already developed a great deal of immunity.

Suddenly, Governor Konishi hugged his head and shouted with red eyes: "I have entered Seoul, and I can also dedicate the city gate to the emperor. How can it be useless?"

Lin Tailai still said disapprovingly: "Your entire army was wiped out before, and you don't have any reliable soldiers around you, right? You won't be allowed to guard the city gate by then, so what are you going to do to steal the city gate?"

Besides, if you are asked to sacrifice the city gate, how can I get the merit of being the first to reach it? Seoul is the royal capital of Korea. The honor of being the first to get there is very important. How can it cause you to do bad things? "

Governor Konishi was stunned for a moment and then continued to shout: "I can act as an envoy between Tianshuai and Taige. If Tianshuai wants to communicate with Taige, I am the most suitable middleman. Isn't this useful!"

Lin Tailai said contemptuously: "What do I have to communicate with an arrogant and crazy old monkey?

There is an idiom in the Central Plains called Monkey King, which is simply for you Hideyoshi Guanbai, ah no, it should be called Taige now, tailor-made. "

President Konishi was completely silent, looking in a daze as if his soul had been taken away and he had become a walking corpse.

"He won't commit suicide, right?" Lin Tailai asked Shen Weijing a little worriedly.

Shen Weijing sympathized with Governor Konishi more and more. This time, Mr. Governor's blow to people was really harsh.

Lin Tailai spoke again: "A god once told me in a dream that Tokugawa Ieyasu was the real leader of the Japanese country, and he was somewhat interested in Tokugawa Ieyasu himself."

Konishi Yukinaga said numbly: "I'm not familiar with Tokugawa."

"Forget it, it seems like it's really useless." Lin Tailai waved his hand and said, "I won't drive you away. You can leave whenever you want. I won't keep anyone here. "

Then he ordered Shen Weijing: "Watch Commander Konishi carefully, don't let him commit suicide in our shogunate camp, and let future history books say that I killed prisoners of war."

In this way, Lin Tianshuai ended his work for the day and returned to the inner courtyard to rest with Concubine Shun.

When Lin Tianshuai arrived at the temporary court the next day, he saw Cui Wukui already waiting. He should have the latest information from North Korea.

Sure enough, as soon as he sat down, he heard Cui Wukui report: "North Korean general Quan Li has led more than 10,000 rebels. In order to regain the capital of Seoul, he has stationed in Xingju Mountain City near Seoul."

When he heard the name Quan Li, Lin Tianshuai searched for some information from his memory in his previous life.

Although Lin Tianshuai knew nothing about Korean history, he had heard of Quan Li thanks to the Anti-Japanese War.

Like Yi Sun-shin, this man is a representative "famous general" of Korea. He was regarded as the "commander-in-chief" of the Korean army in the late anti-Japanese war, and he was also a role touted by the Korean Wave in later generations.

As for more information, Lin Tianshuai doesn't know. Who on horseback would be interested in studying some famous North Korean generals?

He thought for a while and asked: "Where did Quan Li get more than 10,000 soldiers?"

Cui Wukui replied: "Kwon Li raised 10,000 to 20,000 volunteers in Jeolla Province in the south, and then claimed to have defeated the Kobayakawa Takkyung Corps. Then he raised the banner of regaining Seoul and went all the way north. Now he has arrived at the nearby Heungju Mountain Fortress."

Lin Tailai: "."

With Lin Tianshuai's broad mind, his blood pressure was almost uncontrollable.

To put it bluntly, Kobayakawa Takakage's regiment was the main force that defeated Li Rusong in the Bokuto Pavilion and broke out in a panic!

How shameless are you, Kwon Li, that you were able to repel more than 20,000 Kobayakawa Takkyung Corps in Jeolla Province with more than 10,000 makeshift garbage volunteers?

Wasn't it because the heavenly troops were approaching Seoul and the Japanese army was severely lacking in defensive forces that Kobayakawa Takkyung's regiment moved from the direction of Jeolla Province to Seoul, and it was you, Kwon Ryul, who repelled it?

You're still flying the banner of Seoul, just with your more than 10,000 rubbish volunteers?

If the Heavenly Soldiers captured Seoul, would it still be said that it was under your leadership and command, Quan Li, that this victory was achieved?

After Lin Tianshuai stabilized his blood pressure, he said to Cui Wukui: "Why didn't you complain? Don't you usually love to complain about them?"

Cui Wukui replied: "Because there are more poisonous contents in the back, the front is nothing."

Lin Tianshuai said helplessly: "Can I choose not to listen?"

Cui Wukui replied again: "As a manager, you have to listen."

Lin Tianshuai took a deep breath and prepared himself mentally in advance, "You can continue talking now."

Cui Wukui continued to report: "As the marshal of the capital, Quan Li issued a military order to our army, requiring our army to cooperate with the North Korean soldiers to attack Seoul from the direction of Kaesong. The time is tentatively scheduled for five days."

Lin Tianshuai's blood pressure became unstable again. The last time he was so upset was when he heard that North Korea could only provide tens of thousands of grains of food and grass a year.

"I'm obviously so powerful, why am I always disgusted by the success of strange people on the peninsula?" Lin Tianshuai asked Cui Wukui.

Cui Wukui had no choice but to complain.

If one or two people offend the Divine Power in person, they will be killed if they are told to, and they will be clean after the killing.

But there are more than 10,000 rebels on Quan Li's side. Just to kill Quan Li, we can't just leave Seoul alone and attack the nominally allied rebels first, right?

In the end, Cui Wukui could only say: "The wicked will be punished by nature. Quan Li is on the edge of Seoul, and the Japanese pirates will naturally pull out this thorn."

Lin Tailai said: "That's all we can do for the time being. If there is any news like this in the future, you should pass it directly to Li Rusong!"

Three days later, the latest news came. Xingzhou Mountain City, a hundred miles away, was attacked by Japanese soldiers, and Marshal Quan requested support.

Others didn't dare to make the decision, so they could only ask Lin Tianshuai for instructions again.

However, Lin Tianshuai drank and had fun with his concubines all day long, neglected military affairs, and gave full play to the spirit of "when friendly forces are in trouble, they will remain as still as a mountain".

In the end, Marshal Quan led more than 10,000 volunteers to resist tenaciously and bravely repelled the Japanese attack on Xingzhou Mountain Castle!

Then, in order to preserve his strength, Marshal Quan led more than 4,000 warriors to leave Xingzhou Mountain City, which no longer had any defensive value, and turned north towards Kaesong.

The Japanese army was afraid of the combat power of Marshal Quan's army and did not dare to pursue it.

The above is the content of the battle report received by Lin Tianshuai.

"So, Quan Li and more than 4,000 remaining rebels have withdrawn to the vicinity of Kaicheng?" Lin Tianshuai asked, "Then why doesn't he come to see me?"

Cui Wukui replied: "He said that as the marshal of the capital, it is difficult to deal with the etiquette of the marshal of heaven, so there is no need to meet each other, so as not to cause trouble."

Lin Tailai said unhappily: "Isn't this just using more than 4,000 volunteer soldiers as shields and hostages? Do we still want to call him smart?"

Unexpectedly, Marshal Quan also has a bit of a hob meat attribute, and he knows how to do it the safest way.

Tianshuai's killing of one, two or even several Li Dynasty officials would not have any substantial impact, but encirclement and massacre of thousands of rebels could not be done on the surface, as the consequences would be too bad.

Then Lin Tianshuai told Cui Wukui: "You and Yin Zhuoran go to the rebel camp to visit Quan Li and see what else he wants to do."

Cui Wukui took the order and left, and came back with Yin Zhuoran that night to report to Lin Tailai.

Cui Wukui said: "Quan Li stated that the morale of his volunteer soldiers is currently low and they are temporarily unable to carry out high-intensity operations, and requested to continue retreating to the north.

In addition, because there were a large number of troops from Hwanghae Road to Kaesong, military supplies were precious, so they retreated to the north and behind, which made it easier to obtain relief and reduced the pressure on the Kaesong front line. "

It does sound like a very reasonable request. These thousands of volunteers who are good for nothing but "political correctness" stay here. They not only occupy the frontline officers and soldiers' share of food and grass, but are of little use.

Moreover, by throwing Quan Li to the rear, he could be out of sight and out of mind, so as to avoid the recurrence of Marshal Quan giving orders to the heavenly soldiers.

Cui Wukui was still a little suspicious. All the previous operations were done deliberately by Quan Li, just so that he could return to the rear in a pretentious manner.

At that time, in the eyes of others, Marshal Quan will be the hero of the peninsula who was neither humble nor arrogant in the face of the Japanese soldiers, and who was unyielding in the face of the Japanese soldiers. Maybe there will be stories about the soldiers who refused to listen to orders and stood still, and Marshal Quan's success in regaining Seoul failed.

Lin Tailai asked curiously: "What is Quan Li's attitude now?"

Cui Wukui replied: "Now he doesn't dare to speak harshly. He behaves extremely respectfully and just wants to return to the rear."

At this time, Yin Zhuoran, who had been deep in thought, suddenly interrupted: "If there is a problem, there should be a problem!

The relationship between Quan Li and Li Chaobing Cao Banshu is Weng's son-in-law. I know this person very well.

His character is extremely cruel and arrogant, and he is not a submissive person under normal circumstances.

He did not receive any substantial threats today, but he behaved extremely submissively in front of us. This was obviously done deliberately, which is very abnormal! "

Cui Wukui asked doubtfully: "Then what else can he do? You can't just rely on more than 4,000 volunteer soldiers to fight against tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers, right?"

Yin Zhuoran shook his head, "I can't figure out what he did for the moment, but I'm sure there must be something wrong with him."

Cui Wukui said dissatisfied: "Let's talk about it. I don't know what he wants to do, and how to prevent it?"

Lin Tianshuai suddenly said at this time: "Of course we can prevent it, who stipulates what to wait for him first?

With these three words, Mo Xuyou, never look at what he has done or not, or what he wants to do!

I already have an idea, you don’t need to discuss it anymore, I’ll just handle it myself!

I hope President Konishi hasn't left yet, and the Headquarters suddenly realizes that he is still somewhat useful. "
