Chapter six hundred and fortieth coup
Chapter 640: A clever plan
Three days later, Jiang Lang finally waited for three Jifeng.
As before, Yama Nakaki Tsuki came quietly. After seeing Jianglang, Yama Nakaki Tsuki immediately bent down and a scroll was on the ground, saying, "This is a handwritten letter from General Ashikaki to you. He has agreed to your request. Please rescue General Ashikaki as soon as possible. Now Hosokawa Katsumoto's army has completely surrounded the general's residence. We are already unable to move! Please rescue him!"
"It seems that this Hosokawa Katsumoto is really impatient!"
Jiang Lang said lightly, opened the scroll, and read the contents of the letter carefully again. In the letter, Ashikaga Yoshimasa said that he was willing to accept Jiang Lang's opinions, but a big premise was to ensure that he would not harm his country name. In the end, he weakly proposed to ensure his status and the safety of his family.
After reading it, Jiang Lang smiled slightly. Based on his understanding of Ashikaga Yoshima, he probably thought that the so-called national who did not harm his is to cater to the long article he had previously said to Yama Nakagi Shin-sung.
But putting aside these things, now Ashikaga Yoshimasato agreed, which is naturally the best. So after putting away the letter, he smiled slightly and said, "So, Mr. Yama, don't know what's going on with you?"
“Very not optimistic!”
Yamana Shitotsu's face looked very heavy, and said, "Now Hosokawa Katsumoto's heavy troops have surrounded there, and General Ashikaga only has 20,000 troops. The situation is very dangerous. Please send troops to rescue people!"
“The situation is very dangerous!”
Jiang Lang muttered for a moment, nodded, and said, "It turns out that it is already very dangerous. Well, we should now formulate a cooperation plan. At the same time, I will also send someone to save You Ashikaga, but for his family, it may not be able to be completely rescued!"
Yamai Chifeng showed a very embarrassed look on his face and said, "Your Excellency General, can you try your best to think of a solution?"
"I can only try my best!"
Jiang Lang said with some embarrassment, "After all, Hosokawa Katsumoto has stationed more than 200,000 troops there. It is not easy to rescue General Ashikaga from more than 200,000 troops. I will make a good conclusion. Of course, I also hope that Your Excellency Daming can cooperate with our actions. Just in case, please transfer your family to our controlled area category, so as to avoid Hosokawa Katsumoto's sudden attack on you, how about it?"
Jiang Lang's intention was of course to take Shanming Jifeng's family as hostages.
Yamana Shifeng was also a ruthless character. He understood Jiang Lang's meaning, and nodded immediately and said, "I understand the general's meaning. I will send someone to bring my family here immediately. Please ask the general to find a way to save General Ashikaga!"
"Of course I will!"
Jianglang agreed immediately. Yama Nakaki Tsubaki seemed to be very loyal to Ashikaga Yoshimasaki, but whether he was really loyal was a bit intriguing. It was very simple. At least he knew that if Ashikaga Yoshimasaki died, he would lose his value and keep him. It would be of no use. After all, all his territory is under the control of the Ming army. Although Shikoku Island has not sent troops yet, it is only a matter of time to conquer it. Therefore, Ashikaga Yoshimasaki is really unable to die now.
Of course, Jiang Lang didn't want Ashikaga Yoshima to die, so for the purpose, both sides were consistent.
After sending Yamana Shitotsu away, Jianglang thought about it for a moment and wanted to rescue Ashikaga Yoshimasa, he had to find a way out on Hosokawa Katsumoto, otherwise it would be very difficult to rescue Ashikaga Yoshimasa from the army of 200,000.
After pondering for a while, Jiang Lang immediately decided to go and see the Sanquan and Panasonic Kuaibo who were still waiting for him.
When they arrived at the place where the two were temporarily placed, Jiang Lang waved his hand and asked the soldiers to leave. After quietly opening the door and looking inside, he saw Sanquan and Kuyoko Matsushita walking back and forth like ants on a hot pan, and an anxious look appeared on his face. Then he stepped in and bowed and smiled: "You two, it's really a lot. I've been too busy during this period and didn't come back in time. Please forgive me!"
Jiang Lang is the commander of hundreds of thousands of troops, with an extraordinary status, and now he has already expressed his apology. Even though Sanquan and Kuyoko Matsushita were very dissatisfied, he dared not say that there was anything wrong with Jiang Lang. So Sanquan said: "Your Excellency General is busy with official duties, so we can understand that the general doesn't have to be polite!"
"Just understand, just understand!"
Jiang Lang smiled slightly, walked in, and asked very politely: "I wonder if you are used to it here these days? Also, whether you are satisfied with your diet, etc., if you are not satisfied, I will punish them heavily. You are my distinguished guests, so you have to treat them well!"
Sanquan and Kuyoko Matsushita were fine to say, and they said together: "However, I am still used to living here. General, we are here this time to discuss something with you!"
"Please sit down and talk, I'm really not used to standing there!"
Jiang Lang replied, then sat down and pointed to the chairs in front of him.
Sanquan and Kuyoko Matsushita had no choice but to sit down, and then Sanquan said: "Now the General has completely occupied Yama Nakaki-Feng's territory. So, should we fulfill the contract between us now?"
"contract?"
Jiang Lang pretended to be confused.
"It's the contract you signed with us!"
Sanquan reminded carefully.
"I remembered it!"
Jiang Lang patted his forehead, laughed, and said, "I'm so sorry. This matter is too busy. I really forgot about it. I remembered it too. There is indeed such a contract, so of course we must abide by it!"
Hearing that Jiang Lang was about to abide by, Sanquan and others couldn't help but show a hint of joy on their faces. They originally thought it would be very difficult to achieve this goal, but they didn't expect Jiang Lang to agree so readily. Although he had been waiting for a few days, it felt worth it. So he immediately asked, "I don't know when the General is going to withdraw?"
"Of course this soldier will retreat!"
Jiang Lang said lightly, then thought for a moment, pondered for a while, and said, "But before this, should you fulfill your promise first? Of course, you will get a lot of money for us!"
Before turning against him, Jiang Lang still planned to get one point from Yamashiro Chifeng. Although the money he had to do was his own after defeating him, if Yamashiro Chifeng believed in him, he would naturally have to make the West complete set.
"That's certain, that's certain!"
Sanquan said quickly, "We have prepared the silver. As long as the General agrees, he will naturally send the silver immediately!"
"Of course I agree!:
Jiang Lang said very simply, then pondered for a moment, then said: "Now it seems that everyone has basically reached an agreement, so now I want to ask, how your Daming plan to deal with Ashikaga Yoshima!"
When Jiang Lang asked this, Sanquan was a little surprised and asked: "God General, how to deal with Ashikaga Yoshimasa, is it related to our cooperation?"
"Of course it's relevant!"
Jiang Lang immediately replied, "According to our previous discussion, you attack, we pretend to be defeated, and then withdraw from here, but have you ever thought about how to defeat us, and your Daming can take over very easily. This is a skill. If it is not handled well, it will not be of any benefit to you. Therefore, according to my opinion, your Daming really cannot let Ashikaga Yoshima die now!"
"Can't let him die?"
Sanquan was stunned and asked, "How is this?"
Jiang Lang smiled and said, "It's very simple. First, if you Daming kills Ashikaga Yoshimasa and then replaces him, and drives us out of here, you will win, but you are charged with a regicide, and those people are not willing to accept it. In this way, your Daming master will have to spend a lot of effort to appease or suppress Ashikaga Yoshimasa, and the people. Do you think of this?"
I have to say that Sanquan and others really didn't expect that when Jiang Lang said this, Sanquan really realized the seriousness of the problem, but he still had questions in his heart. If Ashikaga Yoshimasa was not dead, Hosokawa Katsumoto naturally could not ascend to the throne legitimately, so he asked: "But, if Ashikaga Yoshimasa is not dead, how can Your Excellency Daeme...!"
"I didn't say that Ashikaga Yoshimasa was not dead!"
Jiang Lang waved his hand and smiled and said, "Diet to die, but how can he die is an art!"
Seeing Jiang Lang's appearance, Sanquan also understood that Jiang Lang was confident now, so he immediately said, "Please give advice to you, General!"
Jiang Lang raised his index finger and said, "Ashikaga Yoshimatsu is going to die, but you can't be killed by you, you can only be killed by us, and you can only die on the battlefield. I have already thought about this problem in my heart. Let's pretend to fight to make your daimyo let Ashikaga Yoshimatsu go to the battlefield in person, in the name of encouraging morale, and then he will die on the battlefield, and it is the same. Such a way of death is more than a hundred times better than dying in the hands of your general. Not only can this Ashikaga Yoshimatsu leave a good reputation, but your general can also be justified!"
"Good idea!"
Sanquan clapped his hands and said, as Jiang Lang said, as Ashikaga Yoshimasaki died, and his name was justified. Moreover, because Ashikaga Yoshimasaki died in battle, he left a good reputation, and the eyes of the people in the country were also shifted to the Ming people. It was indeed a good idea! So he immediately bowed to Jiang Lang and said, "Thank you for your advice!"
Chapter completed!
