Zheng Zhilong glanced at his wife Tagawa Song and said with a smile: "Where did you think you were going? They won't use these. If this is really the case, they will not send their own people here. Let one of their own people follow.

There is absolutely nothing that can be done except to alert the enemy."

Hearing what Zheng Zhilong said, Tagawa Song relaxed and continued to wash Zheng Zhilong's feet. She thought for a while and said, "Then why are they? After all, their intentions are not small. And judging from the current situation, they will also be able to alert the snake.

of."

Looking up at Zheng Zhilong, Tagawa Songzai hoped that he would give him an answer.

In this regard, Tagawa Matsu was not a good-for-nothing woman, she wanted to know.

Zheng Zhilong said: "Maybe he doesn't care."

"Don't care?" Tagawa Song asked, with some confusion on his face.

After sighing, Zheng Zhilong said: "I actually fought with them on the way back, but I didn't fight them. Not only were they destroyed sixty or seventy ships, but we were also captured. But during this battle,

We didn't sink a single ship of them."

"How is this possible?" Tagawa Song's face was full of shock. He raised his head and looked at Zheng Zhilong with disbelief in his eyes.

In Tagawamatsu's heart, his man is a very, very capable person, whether in business or fighting, he is very, very good. After so many years at sea, he has experienced many wars, large and small, and he is very capable.

It's rare to be defeated, let alone such a miserable defeat?

I have lost so much, but the other party has not lost anything.

"Their fleet is very powerful." Zheng Zhilong said helplessly: "The artillery range is very far, and their artillery can blow up our ship even before it enters our range. And their accuracy is also very high, and the artillery shells can

It hit our record right. That's why they don't care."

"Even if we know about it and take precautions, it may be useless in front of them. When their battleships come over, the entire Hirado will be a sea of ​​blood."

Tagawa Song still couldn't believe it, this was really unbelievable.

But she knew how proud the man in front of her was, and would not deceive her with such a thing. Even if he wanted to deceive her, he would not say it so falsely. Then there is only one possibility, this is true. But how?

Could such a thing happen?

After being silent for a long time, Tagawa Song raised his head and looked at Zheng Zhilong and asked: "Since they are so powerful, why don't they just attack them? What are you doing here?"

"They want to persuade them to surrender." Zheng Zhilong said: "In the eyes of the Ming people, they need some people in front. To put it bluntly, if someone surrenders in the future, they don't have to directly join the Ming people. In this way, the resistance of those people will be much smaller. After all,

The Ming Dynasty sent few people, so it was impossible to directly occupy this Japanese country."

"This time I convinced them and made them agree. If the feudal lord agrees, Ming Dynasty is willing to support him as the new shogun of Japan. After conquering Japan, he will be the general of Japan. Ming Dynasty sent people here to discuss this matter.

of."

"Of course, if they can't reach an agreement, the Ming Dynasty will attack. When they occupy Hirado, or Hizen Kingdom, North Korea will also send troops over. The troops from both sides will merge into one and continue to capture the Japanese country."

Tagawa Song was silent again.

After a while, Tagawa Song looked at Zheng Zhilong and asked, "Do you think the feudal lord will agree?"

Sighing helplessly, Zheng Zhilong said: "To be honest, I actually don't have any confidence in my heart. In addition to persuasion, I came back this time to protect you. Once a war breaks out, this will be a battlefield, and death and injury are inevitable. However,

I don’t want you to die in this war, I want to protect you and take you away. That’s why I came back, and you have to be ready. Once the war starts, you have to leave with me.”

After a moment of silence, Tagawamatsu raised his head and said: "If there is no war, I have nothing to say. But if there is a war, I will not go with you. Son, you take it away, I will stay, I am Hiradojima

Daughter of the Lord.”

Glancing at Tagawa Song, Zheng Zhilong felt helpless and sighed: "Why is this so?"

Without saying anything else, Tagawamatsu just shook his head.

In real history, in 1645, Zheng Zhilong sent people to bring the Tagawa family to Anping, while his second son Nanizaemon was left behind in Japan.

In 1646, when the Qing army attacked Anping, the Tagawa family committed suicide and died for the country.

Huang Zongxi's "The Beginning and End of Giving Surnames" records: "Zheng Chenggong was so angry that he cut open his mother's womb with the barbarian method, cleaned out the intestines, and buried her." Commentators say that Zheng Chenggong's lifelong commitment to resisting the Qing Dynasty was closely related to the harm his mother suffered from the Qing Dynasty.

big relationship.

Shoushan Zhengyi's "Pingfan Quotes and Zheng's Binghua" believes that Zheng Chenggong's mother was not afraid of violence and died heroically in the struggle with the ferocious Qing Gushan and Han Dai. "The mother moved frequently and died after scolding Gushan."

If Zhu Youxiao were here, he would understand Tagawa Song's choice.

This is a very courageous and strong woman, even more courageous than Zheng Zhilong. Zhu Youxiao is not surprised at all that she made such a choice.

Seeing that there was no way to persuade Tagawa Song, Zheng Zhilong did not continue.

Things have reached this point, and there is no point in talking about it anymore. Besides, the real situation is not so either/or, and it is not so bad that you have to run away, so you can leave these things alone.

Tagawa Song took Zheng Zhilong's feet out of the basin, took the cloth on one side and wiped his feet.

After taking out the water for washing feet, Tagawa Song came to Zheng Zhilong and said, "Go to sleep. If things develop as you say, it might become more and more troublesome later on. At that time, will it be so stable?"

The day is not certain either.”

Zheng Zhilong was helpless, but he nodded and went to sleep with Tagawa Song.

He missed his wife very much after not seeing her for such a long time.

At the same time, in Seoul, North Korea, people were still awake.

"It's too late, go to bed." Song Xiang walked to Zhang Yu's side, turned on the dim oil lamp, and said, "If this continues, your eyes will not be able to see."

Zhang Yu raised his head and glanced at Song Xiang, put down the pen in his hand, rubbed his eyes helplessly and said: "There are too many things going on. You should make all the assumptions as much as possible before starting, otherwise it will be easy to get into trouble."

"People from the Ministry of Internal Affairs have arrived." Song Xiang glanced at him helplessly and said, "There is news from our team that most of their people have arrived and have entered Seoul. Now everything is ready and can start at any time.

"

Zhang Yu nodded and said with a smile: "I have been preparing for so long, and I have finally waited for this day. After the people from the Staff Office and the Ministry of Internal Affairs arrive, the next thing will be easier to handle."

"So you don't have to work so hard." Song Xiang looked at Zhang Yu and said.

Since arriving in North Korea, Song Xiang has learned more about the man in front of her.

This is a talented man with a lot of thoughts. The most important thing is that he does not care about means when doing things, but he has his own persistence in his heart, which is a very rare thing.

The more Song Xiang gets along with Zhang Yu, the more she feels that he is a very good man.

Zhang Yu glanced at her and then asked: "Has the news from Your Majesty been sent back?"

Song Xiang knew what Zhang Yu was waiting for.

Zhang Yu had previously sent a secret message to the emperor. The message in it was very simple, that is, he informed his majesty of the plan.

If Zhang Yu wants to do something in North Korea, he must get His Majesty's permission. Because only with His Majesty's permission, other people around him will help Zhang Yu. Only in this way can the Ming Dynasty's manpower and material resources in North Korea be mobilized to do this thing well.

Beautifully done.

Zhang Yu has been waiting for the reply to this secret message.

Song Xiang shook his head and said: "There is no news yet. The people at the staff office said that His Majesty is already on his way back to Beijing, and the news has just been sent over. They didn't know His Majesty's whereabouts before, but I think it should be here soon. The news has been sent over.

After that, we will get His Majesty’s imperial edict, and we will be back soon.”

Zhang Yu nodded and said nothing more, but asked: "Is Queen Renmu's illness almost healed?"

"Almost good." Song Xiang nodded and said, "Some people outside have begun to contact the queen recently. Can we also consider making a move?"

"It's time to make some moves." Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Let's meet their veteran faction tomorrow."

"Okay." Song Xiang nodded and said, "It's all up to you."

The light of the oil lamp in the room was still beating, and the two of them were silent for a while, looking at each other.

Song Xiang suddenly said: "After these days of investigation, we found a person who is very suitable for you. This person is called Pu Zhengyang. He is a backbone of the elders. He is rich, lusty, powerful, and very ambitious. But among the elders

Among the factions, Park Zhengyang’s strength is not very strong.”

"I think this person is very suitable for us. As long as we unite with him, we can subvert the elder faction first. At that time, we can hold the elder faction in our hands and use him to provoke a fight between the elder faction and the young faction.

, involving Queen Inmu and the King of Joseon. As long as they fight, we will have more opportunities."

"At the same time, Park Zhengyang is asked to support the second son of North Korea. If this happens, the king of North Korea will also regard the second son of North Korea as a thorn in his flesh. He will have no choice but to fight, and the whole North Korea will be in chaos."

"But I think this plan will not start until they send troops to Japan. At that time, North Korea will be empty, and these things will become easier to operate. If it really comes to a point of necessity, our power can also use force to do things. If
