Chapter 160: Fire in the backyard(2/2)

"Then let's divide it into three times!" Su Buheng continued, "Now this season, there are not many storms. Even if it blows, you can't turn them all over."

"Okay, that's it." Wang Wenyue felt that there was no problem when he heard this, so he immediately decided.

"Report to the brigade, Tokugawa Ie-kwang sent an envoy to request negotiations." At this time, a fast horse ran over and reported to Wang Wenyue.

Wang Wenyue was a little stunned when he heard this.

Su Buheng wondered on the side: "Why did the Tokugawa shogunate suddenly have to negotiate?"

Wang Wenyue shook his head, and he didn't know the reason, "Let's go, have a meeting soon."

Soon, Wang Wenyue and Su Buheng gathered the staff of the mixed brigade of the state and the First Fleet to discuss countermeasures together.

The most discussed at the meeting was why the Tokugawa shogunate suddenly had to negotiate?

As long as you understand this point clearly, you can take the initiative in negotiations and better guess what the other party’s bottom line is.

"Report to the brigade, the Japanese jungle we sent, not long ago, was a detective. A peasant riot occurred in the island of Japan, and it was a large-scale peasant riot. It happened in September, and it has been nearly a month now." A staff officer stood up and expressed his opinion: "In the view of his subordinates, the Tokugawa shogunate is facing a huge crisis at this time, and it is urgent to discuss with us, but we will wipe out this riot again."

One of the most massive uprisings in Japanese history, the Shimahara Uprising, finally broke out in September of that year.

The biggest difference between this peasant uprising and other peasant uprisings in Japan is that many people were Christian believers in this riot.

Although Japan has banned the spread of Christianity so far, it has not yet completely banned, which means that the means are not strong enough.

It is precisely because of this uprising that Japan completely suppressed Christianity and carried out a more thorough policy of closing the country.

Once the uprising broke out, the rebel army quickly conquered several important towns under the guidance of several warriors and moved forward.

This situation immediately shocked the Tokugawa shogunate.

Tokugawa Iemitsu had just retreated from the Kanto area and was determined to drive the Ming people out of Japan, but unexpectedly, the fire suddenly caught in the backyard and panicked for a moment.

But Tokugawa Iemitsu was panicked and was not in a mess. He immediately sent people to Kanto to negotiate with the Ming army.

Tokugawa Iemitsu knew that the reason why the Ming people invaded Japan was just an excuse, not the main thing. The Ming people only came to Japan to grab money, and it was also for trade issues.

Japan has always studied China in many dynasties. According to the customs of the Ming people, it generally does not invade any country. This conclusion is indeed correct.

However, the Tokugawa shogunate mistakenly used Zhao Yan's Shandong power.

At this time, Tokugawa Iemitsu realized how aggressive the Ming Dynasty Shandong warlords were. Fortunately, the other party was just trying to steal money and trade, and did not really want to destroy him.

The Shimahara Uprising is different, and this matter cannot be delayed.

Once the procrastination is delayed, the Ming people will hook up with the rebels, which will be troublesome. In order to extract enough power to suppress, Tokugawa Iemitsu must first form a temporary state of peace with the Ming people.
