358. Chapter 358 Yingying water

The word "Japanese pirate" feels bad to give money to Wubian. Even though he set the destination of the fleet's maiden voyage in Fusang, he definitely did not go with the beautiful purpose of "interconnecting with or without". In his opinion, this is more like plundering with commercial forms.

"Japan", the word is said to be a self-proclaimed in the letter to Emperor Yang of Sui during the Sui Dynasty. They called themselves "the country of sunrise" and "Japan", and the Great Sui Dynasty at that time was called "the country of sunset". The meaning of gitting on their faces was fully visible, but probably except for the occasional official name that you can see this title in the official name, most of the time, whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the folk, whether it is the old name of the ancients, it is "Fusang".

I expected that with the mentality of the Ming people and the Celestial Kingdom, they probably looked down on this behavior of giving their faces on their faces and even caring about the name of the country. The Ming people should think this way in their hearts: Don’t giving them on their faces and picking up something nice. We know where you are from, and Fusang is just Fusang. I thought hundreds of years have passed, so I don’t know if I change my name. Isn’t it just a group of islanders and barbarians!

As for the origin of the name "Japanese pirate", it is no longer verified. The meaning of "德" is naturally a robber, and calling them Japanese pirates is probably the Fusang people who call themselves "德" clan, and they spread rumors. When they arrived in the glorious Chinese country, they eventually became the word "德" with a similar pronunciation to "德".

However, whether it is the He tribe or the Japanese tribe, in the eyes of the Ming people, these people really deserve the name of "barbarians".

The merchants have a broader vision and know that in Fusang, there is basically nothing missing, such as silk, silk cotton, cloth, brocade, and red thread; needles, iron pots, porcelain, lacquerware, and women's powder for daily use; Chuanxiong and licorice for medicinal materials; Buddhist scriptures, medical books, and the Four Books and Five Classics; raw materials: mercury, saltpeter, etc., as long as all these things are shipped to Japan, they will be huge profits of tens of times. There is no way. Whether it is clothing or daily use, these are for the time being.

In Fusang, this is all about high-tech. Damn it. They can't do it for another hundred years. As for books, it's better to understand it. This is advanced culture. From the perspective of the monks who were not afraid of death in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, what they were trying to do is not for these advanced cultures. Some great men in later generations pointed out that science and technology are the primary productive forces! Learning advanced culture means gaining advanced productivity. From this point of view, there are also wise people among the Japanese.

Mercury, saltpeter, etc., is even better. It’s just that big an island country. If you can expect it to be rich in things, you have to buy something outside. Fortunately, God has not completely discriminated against them. In Fusang, there are still many gold and silver mountains, which makes them finally have no payment power when buying things.

However, the Fusang people seen by ordinary people along the coast are from another perspective. Forget these Fusang people, just call them Japanese pirates directly. I always feel that they are also giving their faces.

These people who can come to the coast of Ming Dynasty can have a few serious people. Dozens of famous names on the Japanese island have been tricked out. The defeated samurai cannot find the ronin from the main family, and even deserters who are abandoned, including the delicious and hard-working guys who don’t want to farm honestly, all of them have gone into the sea. Apart from their strength and lifeless personality, these guys basically have nothing left. If they hope to do business with the people along the coast, they have to be able to take out things! If they can’t take it out, they will naturally have to snatch it!

The taste of these Japanese pirates was so low to the eyes of the officials and people of the Ming Dynasty. These guys robbed whatever they saw and had nothing they wanted. Even if they were clay pots cooked by poor people, they would rob them as treasures. There was nothing they could do. They would have to take celadon technology for decades before they could steal from the Ming Dynasty. These things could still be sold at a good price if they took them back to Fusang.

In short, this is a group of beggars, a group of very vicious beggars who can kill people! This is what the people on the coast now think of these Japanese pirates.

The county town that the Japanese pirates invaded this time was Putian County, Xinghua Prefecture, Fujian.

In late July, a sea boat docked at the mouth of Putian River. There were more than 60 strange men with "Baoba Bird Sound" on the ship, carrying guns, swords, bows and arrows, and no firearms. After receiving the message, the local Japanese guard station quickly sent more than a hundred soldiers to surround him. The people on the ship saw the full armed officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, and did not dare to act rashly. The leader of the team asked about their purpose, but was troubled by the incomprehension. At this time, a person who knew Chinese characters suddenly appeared on the ship, so the two sides began to talk with paper and pen. The man wrote on the paper: "I am a Japanese, from my land, because I lost my rudder, I am willing to make food and repair my rudder, and then I will return. Fortunately, I will not be forced, and I will not be sentenced to death."

The coastal Japanese guards did not receive news of the harassment of Japanese pirates. In this case, no matter whether the leader of the troops believed it or not, they would either immediately order them to go to sea or take strict precautions. This is the correct way to deal with it.

Unfortunately, from the establishment of the Japanese Guards in Futian, they had never had any real fights with the Japanese pirates. As for the news of the coastal haunted by the Japanese pirates, it seemed to be far away from another country. I don’t know what the leader of the team always thought, but he actually believed this nonsense. Moreover, in front of the real money and silver that the people on the ship had taken out, half of the soldiers returned to the county town to raise food for them.

The people on the beach have been living for a long time. When they see these strange Fusang people, they are not afraid. Instead, they all come to watch the fun and point fingers, which means they hold a temple fair here.

When it was almost dark, the ship was filled with joy. These strange men with "blackhead bird sound" suddenly attacked and took out the swallowtail sharp arrows that had been hidden from the cabin and shot at the Ming soldiers who were unprepared around. First, they shot more than half of them to death, and then one by one, the Japanese pirates with shirtless hands carrying three-foot Japanese swords rushed out of the cabin and killed the remaining officers and soldiers one by one.

At this time, the people around him were in a big uproar. It turned out that these people were not maritime merchants, but the legendary Japanese pirates who killed people without blinking. So, everyone burst into tears for a moment.

Where to escape? The Japanese pirates with swords behind him were of course fleeing to the county town. At least there was a city wall in the county town, with officers and soldiers guarding them. The people fled in front, and the Japanese pirates were chasing behind. It was getting dark. People in the county town could only hear words like "The Japanese pirates are coming". They saw countless people coming from the beach, and they were even more frightened. In addition, the leader of the officers and soldiers, who were confused, died in the first round of shooting of the Japanese pirates. The officers and soldiers were almost without leaders. I don’t know who shouted, threw down the weapons in their hands and ran away. Where did the other officers and soldiers still know how to do it?

The people who were fleeing to the gate of the county town, only to find that there was a soldier on the top of the city. All the soldiers had fled. It was impossible to expect the county magistrate to bring ordinary yamen runners to resist these Japanese pirates like tigers and wolves. Therefore, the county magistrate and his subordinates also fled. Except for some people who were not well-informed or inconvenient to walk, they almost escaped completely!

These Japanese pirates were so proud that this was a big pie that fell from the sky. They turned out to be just planning to rob, but they didn't expect to get a city. Although this city must not be able to defend, it did not prevent them from having fun for a few days before the Ming army came!

Three days later, Futian County was almost an empty city, with more than 10,000 people. It had already escaped before the Japanese pirates arrived. After the Japanese pirates left, there were only less than 100 people left. The rest were either killed or plundered by the Japanese pirates. The food and various valuables that the Japanese pirates in the city were burned out before the Ming soldiers arrived.

...

On the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month, Qian Wubing, the commander of the Jinyiwei, brought a group of subordinates to Fuqing, Fujian by sea.

The next day, he led two groups of Jinyiwei and more than ten people, and went to Dongwei, Fujian Town and Pinghaiwei in two directions.

On the third day, on the afternoon of the 25th day of the 12th lunar month, Wang Yanzhong, a thousand households in the Jinyiwei Qianhou District, had only two of them in person, rushed from Fujian to Fuqing to ask for the commander-in-chief, Lord Qian.

"What's the matter? Let him come again after the New Year, and let people calm down!" Qian Wubing was wearing a ball jacket, which made him look a little bloated. Yan Jiu took his people to the two guards of Zhendongpinghai to check the situation of the troops that day. At this moment, the only one who could find his identity around him was Qiu Caoer.

Qiu Caoer was still a little confused about the rules of the Jinyiwei, but she was very clear about one thing. Qian Wubing said that she must do it. This is the noble person in her destiny.

"Then I'll go back to him!" She nodded. This feeling was very good. Two months ago, she couldn't even imagine this. The Jinyiwei province was a thousand households, and that was on par with the governor. When would such a person have to speak in front of her with a smile. In the past, there were officials who treated her like this, but it was for her body, not her current identity.

Qian Wubing nodded and signaled her to go out. The climate in the south is still a little different from that in the north. In the winter in Fuqing, even if it is cold, it has a sticky feeling. Even if he is strong, he seems to be suffering from a cold.

"Qiu Baihu, what do you say?" Wang Yanzhong, who was temporarily "staying with" the merchant's house, looked at the woman who walked out and asked politely. He had misunderstood the identity of this woman before, but he did not dare to make any mistakes again. He thought that this was just a concubine of Qian Qianshi, but he was also from the Jinyiwei yamen. However, except for this woman, the brothers of the Jinyiwei brought by Qian Qianshi were different from those he had seen. They looked like Seminar people, and even couldn't communicate with each other. Even if they were a little embarrassed, he still had to ask intently.
