Chapter 163 The Second Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Army
The secretly revealed the title "The Commentary on Thirty-six Generals of the Nine Provinces with Wisdom".
Maybe it is to make the emperor more interesting, or be interested in going one after another, so that he can better feel the proud achievements of Eunuch Wei in Fusang, Japan, and thus give high recognition and praise. Eunuch Wei wrote this secret disclosure in vernacular.
The finishing touch of the whole text is in the last paragraph: "Today Shishituhara, Li Dan, Kyoto can be seen, Edo can be seen, and Silver Mountain can also be seen."
The heads of the thieves such as Li Dan were also sent back with the ship. Because they were in Japan for many years, most of Li Dan's subordinates were dressed in Japanese clothes and their hair accessories were very special.
Eunuch Wei believes that even if the emperor does not look at these heads, those father-in-laws in the inner court will definitely praise him Eunuch Wei if they look at him.
They had different opinions on killing Li Dan, Chen Yourong, Shi Dezheng, Jiang Xifeng and other generals. They believed that although Li Dan served for the shogunate, he was a Han man after all, and a strong man on the seas in East Asia, which had a great influence on the various forces at the sea.
Therefore, it is a pity to kill him. If he can use his influence to serve the Imperial Army, the conquest will be twice the result with half the effort. At least, he can also recruit a group of maritime forces for the Imperial Army.
Moreover, if the East Asian route run by Li Dan can be completely used by the Imperial Army, the sea trade currently operated by the Special Administrative Region will expand several times in a short period of time, and the profit alone will be considerable.
Eunuch Wei didn't think so, he insisted on killing Li Dan.
"The name of Kabidan is very powerful. It is also a very influential figure for the powerful Japanese shogunate vassals and maritime forces. But it is precisely because Li Dan has influence that our family cannot help but get rid of him, the Ming Dynasty, without needing another Nurhaci."
What Eunuch Wei said was very straightforward. Since Li Dan refused to win over the Xuan delegation, his father-in-law had abandoned him.
The more influential the character is, the more you have to get rid of it, otherwise it will be too big in the future.
In essence, Li Dan and Nurhaci are the same. They may have awe of the Ming Dynasty, but they are absolutely not loyal.
When awe is broken, ambition will arise naturally.
"If a "Kabidan" falls down, tens of millions of "Kabidan" will appear."
Eunuch Wei on the top of the city looked at the sea with his hands behind his back.
Below the city are more than a hundred sea merchants from Tuhara City, including Han people, Japanese people, and a few Western Red-haired Devils.
If a strong man falls, there will definitely be emerging strong men. This is a history and an objective fact.
Eunuch Wei had no intention of the imperial army as the dominant leader in the sea. What he always hoped was that more people would enter the maritime cause of the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, as long as these maritime merchants show enough sincerity to cooperate with the Imperial Army, Eunuch Wei will let them upgrade each other.
Whether it is the Han people, the Japanese people, or the Red-haired Japanese, as long as they are willing to unite under the imperial Ming Dynasty of Eunuch Wei, they are the best friends of the Imperial Army.
In the future, he will also be a part of the Emperor Ming.
There is the first person to eat anything when doing it.
Since ancient times, just as those who dare to cause trouble are gangsters, those who dare to take risks are all outlaws.
Since the establishment of maritime affairs, although Eunuch Wei has repeatedly advocated that the civil forces should take bold steps and bravely move towards the ocean, until now, it is only the "thieves" dressed in maritime clothing on the southeast coast who are tentatively stretching their feet into the sea driven by interests. The scale and scope are small, and it is far from reaching what Eunuch Wei hopes without the protection of the imperial army. The civil forces can also open up the territory for the imperial Ming Dynasty and act as a pioneer.
The reason may be that China's "small peasant" idea has been causing trouble for thousands of years, and small wealth is at ease, and the interests of the clan are greater than the interests of the country.
Therefore, a group of people must take the lead in making a move for the gentry in China so that these domestic landlords and powerful people know how short-sighted their vision and how rich the outside world is, so that they will be brave enough to rush into the depths of the ocean.
Then, these outlaws in Tuhara City are the best candidates.
Eunuch Wei summoned these maritime merchants. After repeating the assurance that Chen Yourong gave to the other party, his father-in-law asked these maritime merchants to mobilize immediately, pay and ship, and set up the Imperial Army to form the Second Brigade, contributing to the great Japanese war in Huang Ming.
In addition to ensuring that these maritime merchants will not be cut off by the Imperial Army, their father-in-law also promised that they would be able to go to any place in the southeast coast to purchase the goods they needed openly, and would not be troubled by local governments, and would not be regarded as pirates.
"After you go back, if you find that there is another local official who dares to underestimate you, you can report our name and hand over our name. If our family doesn't help you, the Imperial Army will also help you!"
The father-in-law kept his word and asked Wei Laojiu to post one by one on the spot. Even though the sea merchants were skeptical about what Eunuch Wei said, they had to express their willingness to support the court unconditionally in the face of the fact that Li Dan was dead and Tuhara had changed his surname to the Ming Dynasty.
The Imperial Army Mixed Second Brigade was a good move announced by my father-in-law. The Second Brigade must have used Tohara Castle as its garrison, so it would be the best surveillance of Tador Shimazu and a powerful photograph of Kyushu.
In the plan, the Mixed Second Brigade will be compiled by the maritime merchant forces of Tuhara Castle and Yan Siqi's reverse troops, as well as the recruited Japanese.
My father-in-law had asked Ge Sanlang to write a letter to Yan Siqi, asking this Han hero who had fallen into Tuhara Castle for a while. At that time, my father-in-law would entrust the important task of Yan Siqi's brigade commander, which would be considered as a reassurance for the other party.
After all, the title of "General Dragon and Tiger" is really impressed.
It is certain that the Imperial Army's conquest of Japan will last for a long time. Given the lack of combat forces of the Imperial Army, using a large number of puppet troops is the best choice.
In addition to the strategy of bribery and publicity, large-scale inclusion is undoubtedly a good way.
On that day, each city gate of Tohara posted an announcement, which shocked every Takara residents who had read it.
Because, this announcement issued in the name of the Ming Dynasty clearly stated that the Ming Dynasty recognized the Japanese samurai class and was willing to recruit samurai as official officers of the Ming Dynasty.
This means that a large number of samurai in Japan who were suppressed by the Tokugawa Shogunate's "destroying martial arts" and even became ronin will have a new object of allegiance and a new system.
The "respecting the emperor and fighting against the barbarians" and "the land of imperial ways" appear in the announcement have become the hottest word among the residents of Tuhara Castle.
After writing the inscription "The Holy Guardian of Kyushu" to the glorious Fourth Infantry Regiment, Eunuch Wei cordially met with several Japanese Catholics brought back from the "enemy-occupied area".
