Chapter 124: Travels to the Japanese Country III

After a day of rest, Jiang Qin left a team of soldiers on Tsushima Island, and then continued to sail to Japan with the rest.

After sailing for more than 200 miles, we arrived at another place. Emataro introduced this place to be called Yiji Kingdom, with a population of more than 3,000.

There are some fields to cultivate here, so although the island is smaller than the previous Tsushima Island, the population is several times larger.

After Jiang Qin landed, he found that the people on this island were the same as Tsubasa Island before, with no clothes and few people, but at least the king of the Ichiki country would not be as crazy as he saw food.

The island is lush with vegetation. Because there are no mountains and naturally there are no mines. Jiang Qin added some fresh water a little, then recorded it and left. However, in just one day when he was docking, Emataro formed a team of dozens of people in the local area and set up the sign of the Yiji Branch of Dahan and the Japanese Import and Export Co., Ltd.

It is said that this branch is still the manager of the branch.

When Jiang Qin later learned that Ye Mataro not only did not spend money to set up this branch, but instead asked the Ichidao king to pay dozens of kilograms of gold and silver to buy this position in order to monopolize local trade, Jiang Qin suddenly felt that this guy was a talent!

After passing the Ike Kingdom, Jiang Qin and others finally arrived at Kyushu Island, one of the four major islands in Japan.

Of course, this place is not called Jiuzhou at this time, but Bu Shu Zi Island.

"How many islands do you Japan have? Are you all islands?"

When he learned that he had arrived at the destination and the destination was still an island, a treasury leader suddenly said strangely.

"There is a legend in our country of Japan that two gods named Izanaki and Izanamimi created eight islands, namely Awaji Island; Iyu Island; Oki Island; Kazushima Island; Iki Island; Tsushima Island; Sado Island and Owato Akitsu Island.

Therefore, our country is also called the Kingdom of Hachishima." Yemataro explained.

Among these eight islands, Ji Zi Island was later Kyushu Island, Yiyu Island was later Shikoku Island, and Owato Akitsu Island was later Honshu Island.

As for the later Hokkaido Island, the Ainu people lived on it, which not only had nothing to do with the Japanese, but also had always been hostile.

In fact, it was the Tokugawa Shogunate that Hokkaido was officially governed by the Japanese in later generations, but the actual effective rule had to wait until the Meiji era, so it was not within the traditional Japanese sphere of influence.

"There will be seven islands in the future." Zhou Tai said remindingly.

"Of course, of course, there is no need for Japan to exist. If all the Japanese can become Han people, it will be the greatest blessing for our Japanese people!" Ye Mataro replied diligently.

"If you, Japan really has a lot of minerals, I think the general will consider it. But after all, you are not from the Chinese ethnic group, so it may be a bit difficult for the entire clan to surrender." Jiang Qin said with a tsk.

Both the Huns and Wuhuan were branches of Yan and Huang, so they entered the Han Dynasty and became Han people, and everyone could accept it, but the Japanese were completely aliens. The problem of hundreds of people was not big. If they were like each other across the country, they would probably be quarreling in the court.

"Which of your seven islands is the largest? Which one has the most?" Jiang Qin continued to ask.

"The biggest one is naturally Akitsu Island of Owafeng, but the people there are all a group of barbarians. Some places are still in stone plowing land and they don't even have to wear clothes. It is said that people in some places can eat people!"

Speaking of Akitsushima, Eimataro looked contemptuous, and that way, it was no different from when the Han people talked about the Japanese.

There are really any contempt chains everywhere.

"Then you guys?"

"Although we build Zidao is not the largest, it is the richest and most populous!" said Yemataro proudly, "And the Yema Tai Kingdom, born in the lower country, is the strongest, richest and most populous among the hundreds of countries on the island! Under the leadership of our queen, it has surpassed our world enemy Dog Slave Kingdom!"

"Wait!" Jiang Qin stopped him and said, "You said... are there hundreds of countries on your island?"

Yemataro nodded and said, "There are at least one hundred, and we Yematai have twenty-eight vassal states! And because the Dog Slave Kingdom was the former overlord, there were more than thirty vassal states, and the other countries were small countries, and neither side dared to offend them."

"You guess, how many people are there in your total population of 100 countries on Zhuzi Island?"

When Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai's expressions became serious when they heard that there were more than a hundred countries on the island.

In this way, the largest Japanese island may have hundreds of countries.

With more than two hundred countries, Japan's population cannot reach two million? I'm afraid that the combined forces will be more than one hundred thousand, right?

I didn’t expect that this Japan was actually so deep!

If Japan is very strong, then it is really impossible to start a war, and it is even possible to defend against the Japanese in the future to cross the sea to make pirates.

After all, as the saying goes, many ants will bite the elephant to death!

"There are at least 400,000 people!" said Yemataro firmly.

.....

In an instant, Jiang Qin felt that there seemed to be leaves floating by in front of him.

"What is your population in Taiwan?"

"About 80,000 people! It is the largest in the island, and it should be the largest in the entire Japan!"

"There are soldiers?"

"There are 1,000 permanent troops! But if you are fighting a national war with the Dog Slave Kingdom, you can pull out a team of tens of thousands of people at any time!"

Jiang Qin pinched his eyebrows.

In this way, the average population of these 100 countries is about 5,000.

If you consider a giant like Ematai, the average population of other small countries is about two or three thousand, and those small countries in the mouth of Emataro may be less than a thousand people.

This is not a melee between hundreds of countries.

This is obviously two county magistrates and a group of pavilion chiefs and village chiefs are making trouble.

After figuring out the actual situation in Japan, Jiang Qin no longer worried.

What kind of team of tens of thousands of people is probably the farmer joining the army. Jiang Qin felt that relying on the hundreds of soldiers he brought with him could kill several pairs of men.

Thinking of this, Jiang Qin suddenly realized that this was an opportunity.

"Get the map!"

Jiang Qin waved his hand and the sergeant next to him took out a map from the bamboo tube. Jiang Qin took another pencil and handed it to Xiemataro and said, "Mark the location of the country you know."

When Yemataro took the map, his eyes almost popped out.

What map is this?

The great man actually has such an exquisite map of Japan?

But he saw that there were various mountains and rivers marked on the map. Some Ye Mataro knew that some Ye Mataro had never heard of it. He couldn't imagine how many scouts he sent to draw such a map.

Logically speaking, if the terrain is so clear, shouldn’t the towns be clearer?

But why doesn’t such a beautiful map also mark any country or town?

Are the scouts of the great man so casual?
