681 Thunder Clap
When Tokugawa Iemitsu heard this, he was furious.
He never expected that the Ming army was so arrogant. Not only did he apologize and retreat, but he asked him to cede land and pay compensation. It was really intolerable!
"Did those Ming soldiers come to make fun of it? I thought they could eat our country?"
"I didn't expect that after so many years, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty was still so arrogant and thought he could do whatever he wanted, so why?"
"What happened decades ago was actually over my head. Do you think I'm easy to bully?"
"I still want my country to be a vassal state of Ming Dynasty. Is he worthy?"
“…”
Almost every request deeply stimulated Tokugawa Iemitsu. Although he was not in good health, he was also furious. With his roar, he threw everything he saw in front of him, so that there was a "crackling" sound accompaniment.
None of his ministers dared to speak out.
They had never seen Tokugawa Iemitsu so furious. Even when the Shimahara Rebellion occurred before, the turmoil swept across Kyushu, and not now, it was limited to the Satsuma Domain, and he had never seen him so furious.
The things that were treasured by Tokugawa Islam, especially the products from the Ming Dynasty, were all broken by Tokugawa Islam.
After venting for a long time, Tokugawa Iemitsu, who seemed a little tired, gasped like an old cow and shouted to his ministers: "Gather the army, send troops to the Satsuma clan, destroy the Ming army, and attack the Ming Kingdom again, and capture the Ming Emperor!"
These words were obviously very irrational. His ministers lowered their heads and did not dare to answer.
After all, if you attack Ming, you have to arrest the Ming emperor. Although this idea is good, is it possible? When Tokugawa Iemitsu becomes completely rational, they will blame them for not admonishing him!
When Tokugawa Iemitsu saw them all like turtles, without saying a word, he suddenly felt anger in his heart "swooshing" again.
"What, what do you mean? I think we can't beat the Ming army?"
"Do you think I want to agree to Mingguo's conditions and live a life of silence?"
"Do you send Shimazu Kokuha to Mingjun, apologize and cede land and pay compensation?"
“…”
Listening to Tokugawa Iemitsu starting a new round of roars, Matsuhira Nobutsu, the head of the minister, had to stand up and salute to the furious Tokugawa Iemitsu, and said peacefully: "Master, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty is so arrogant, we must teach him a lesson!"
When he heard this, Tokugawa Ie-Kiang felt a little better. He had an opinion that was consistent with him, so he nodded and pointed at him and said, "That's right, you must teach the Emperor of Ming Dynasty a lesson, so that he will regret it for the rest of his life. He dared to be so arrogant!"
But who knew that Matsudai Nobuzu did not follow his words: "But this matter is of great importance. We should discuss it for a long time and discuss it safely, so that we can teach the Emperor of Ming a lesson under the current stable situation in Japan!"
His words, especially the sentence "The current stable situation in Japan" finally awakened Tokugawa Iemitsu.
What he cares most about is naturally the rule of his Tokugawa family. Nowadays, the situation in Japan is because he has made great efforts to weaken the names of various places, and finally has a situation. Once a big fight with the Ming army, there may be a big surprise.
The result of the discussion was to send someone to see what the Ming army wanted to do. If the other party apologized and withdrew from the army, he would not even want to care about the fact that the Ming army had captured the territory of Japan. The reason was that he did not want to make the situation in Japan uncontrollable again.
But unexpectedly, Ming Jun's reply was so arrogant that it stimulated him instantly.
At this time, Tokugawa Ieki finally woke up after being furious, and looked at his most trusted minister and asked, "Then what do you think should you deal with it?"
After hearing this, Matsuhira Nobuzuki immediately said what he had considered in Tokugawa Ikuma's rage and said: "The Lord must not agree to the request of the Emperor of Ming, otherwise the Lord's prestige will be lost, and the Emperor of Ming may become more and more demands, bullying our Japanese and bullying the Lord!"
"Yes!" When Tokugawa Iemitsu heard this, he immediately pointed at Matsuhira Nobutsu and said, "That's the reason, I think so too!"
Matsuhira Nobutsu continued to say with a serious expression: "Therefore, we must eliminate the Ming army in the Satsuma vassal state. However, it is best to discuss how to eliminate it. With the weak ministers, the national army can be divided into two parts, and the army loyal to the Lord is the supervisor, and other troops are urged to attack the Satsuma vassal state. In this way, the current situation can be stabilized to the greatest extent!"
When Tokugawa Iemitsu heard this, he nodded again, which was very consistent with his intention.
"However, the Ming army is so arrogant. According to the news brought by Omefu, the Ming army is indeed elite and means to stay in the Satsuma vassal for a long time. It can be seen that they were prepared from the beginning." Matsuhei Nobutsu said in a serious tone, "It can be seen that the Ming army must have reliance on this battle. If there is no war, once the war begins, they must do their best to ensure that they win in one battle."
Speaking of this, there was a hint of worry in his expression: "Once our army is defeated or if the war is unfavorable, I am afraid that someone in the country will find trouble!"
He is an old Chinese who has been in power for many years. Of course, he has rich political experience. You can guess at a glance that those daimyos who are not particularly loyal to the Tokugawa Shogunate may have any ideas. Moreover, the one in Kyoto has always been quite resistant to the shogunate, and maybe they will have some ideas.
Therefore, his suggestion was to give the Ming army a thunder blow.
Listening to his analysis, Tokugawa Iemitsu was completely awake and showed a meditative expression.
"The old master is right. The Ming army distributed all the land of the Shimazu family to those poor people. There was even news that if Daming from all over the country wanted to attack the Ming army, their territory would be dealt with in this way." Yagyu Tokuiwei followed the remark, "If the Ming army is not suppressed and eliminated, I am afraid that people with dissent will reappear in Shimahara Rebellion and respond to the Ming army!"
Hearing him speak, he still said that it was such a bad situation. Tokugawa Iemitsu immediately remembered that it seemed that Yagyu Tokuwai was too arrogant when he negotiated with the Ming army, so that the order of the Ming emperor was announced and the situation was now. Suddenly, he felt disgusted with Yagyu Tokuwai.
But at this time, he was already rational. He knew that Yanai Shibingwei's original thought was actually not wrong.
Therefore, he just snorted from his nose to Yagyu Shibuwei's answer, which gave affirmation and expressed his dissatisfaction.
Matsuhira Nobutsu had no objection to Yagyu Tokui. Seeing that he was talking, he turned to Yagyu Tokui and said, "Damufu, you personally went there in the Satsuma clan and knew the Ming army the most. Please explain the situation of the army in detail. Only by grasping the situation of the Ming army can we use troops in a targeted manner and ensure that you will win with one blow!"
This statement was a meticulous and steadfast act. Tokugawa Ie-kwang did not object, so he looked at his supervisory leader.
Of course, Yagyu Tokio Yui knew that he had offended Tokugawa Iemitsu, and at the same time, he knew that Matsuhira Nobutsu was right, so he tried his best to add his impression of the Ming army.
He came from the Toyotomi Hideyoshi era and participated in the war to help Tokugawa Ieyasu win the world. He must have a vision, and others can believe what he said.
Therefore, when he began to talk about the details about the Ming army again, everyone, including Tokugawa Iemitsu, was listening carefully.
Whether the military soldiers are elite, even if they don’t fight, as long as people with experience and those with heart can judge from their daily actions?
Combined with the various news that the Ming army captured the Satsuma Domain, such as well-trained, decisive and Thunder tactics of attacking, we can all draw a final conclusion.
This army sent by the Ming emperor to Japan is even more elite than the Ming army during the Korean War.
After hearing this, Tokugawa Iemitsu said, "It turns out that those who come are not good, and those who are good don't come!"
Yagyu Shibuwei, who was responsible for helping him supervise the world, was a little strange. Seeing Tokugawa Igawa's face looked a little better, he said, "From the news from the Ming Dynasty, it seems that the Ming Dynasty is in civil strife, and there are natural disasters and man-made disasters everywhere, but they are also rebellions. Why did the Ming Dynasty emperor not only care about the affairs of the vassal states under such circumstances, but also sent such elite troops?"
Although the Tokugawa shogunate was closed to the country, there had been some news about the Ming Dynasty since it was completely closed to the country. However, as the policy of closing to the country became more and more thorough, news about the Ming Dynasty was gradually missing, especially since even the Dutch were not coming, and even the Japanese were missing news outside.
Naturally, they didn't know that the Dutch were not going, but that the generals were eliminated by the Ming army and also sent troops to occupy Luzon. The Dutch in Batavia dared to send ships to Japan again.
Hearing his question, someone said for granted: "What else is there? It must be that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty is worthy of face. He always seems to be like this!"
When Tokugawa Iemitsu heard this, he agreed a little. However, Nobutsu Matsuhira, who was an old Chinese, shook his head seriously and said, "This time, I don't think so."
Speaking of this, he said seriously to Tokugawa Iemitsu: "Master, judging from the various signs of the Ming army in the Satsuma vassal, it is very likely that the Ming country has undergone major changes. I guess it is likely that the Ming country's rebellion was quelled. Then, the Ming emperor could send his elite troops of all wars. This is true, the Ming army in the Satsuma vassal will be even more elite than the Ming army during the Korean War!"
When he said this, Tokugawa Iemitsu also felt it was reasonable.
At this time, I heard Matsupita Nobuka say very seriously: "In order to achieve the effect of a thunder strike, I would rather estimate the Ming army in the heavy way than underestimate the Ming army. Please decide!"
