Chapter 1113 Date
In the inn, Ichiro Tanaka and Fu Tao sat opposite each other, and there was a teapot and two cups in front of them.
Ichiro Tanaka used tea instead of wine. After drinking it, he looked at Fu Tao and said, "Mr. Fu, is this your way of hospitality for you wise people? I came with a friendly and peaceful heart, but was imprisoned here. What do you want to do to me?"
Fu Tao is already thirty years old, and years of training have long been calm enough, not to mention that he is confident and unmoved at all.
Fu Tao held a teacup in his hand, with a calm expression and said, "You should know that without my protection, you will either be in the prison or have your body and head left."
Tanaka Ichiro frowned, looked at Fu Tao, and said with a blank expression: "Mr. Fu, I will reiterate that I came with a friendly and peaceful heart. Please give me the etiquette that the Ming Dynasty deserves."
Fu Tao looked up at him and said, "Who is your master?"
At this time, Tanaka Ichiro's identity as a "shogunate visitor" had been exposed. He looked stern and said, "In our country, there are hundreds of vassal states. Since sixty years ago, after the continuous war, the Tokugawa shogunate has basically ruled the entire country. Japan is now roughly divided into three forces, Tokugawa Temple and its confidant Daming, many daimyos who followed the first generation of the Tokugawa family's head, and Daming who was forced to surrender or defeated. Our hall is the defeated daimyo, and Ida Temple once followed the Taige to conquer the world and was famous. But this generation of Tokugawa Temple used many extremely shameless means to monitor, increase taxes, and even recruit, sending their wives and children to Edo as hostages..."
The situation in Japan is too complicated, with more than 200 large and small vassal states, and the relationship networks are complicated, making it difficult for outsiders to see clearly.
Even though Fu Tao had read some information and introductions, he was still a little confused when he listened to Ichiro Tanaka's words. He remained motionless and said, "Ida... is Mu Aofan?"
Tanaka Ichiro bowed a little and said, "Before this, we had secret agreements with Shimazu, Maeda and others. However, Tokugawa's family is in great shape and we have no choice. If we have the help of the Ming Dynasty, we will definitely be able to quickly reverse the situation. In Japan, most daimyos are very dissatisfied with Tokugawa Temple."
Fu Tao listened to his words and felt confused and said, "How do you want me, Daming, to help you?"
Tanaka Ichiro looked at Zhu Xu, his eyes were slightly soaring, and he bowed and said, "Mr. Fu, I know that your country's navy is heading north. We hope that the Ming Dynasty can put enough pressure on Tokugawa Palace. I believe that as long as the Ming Dynasty has enough pressure, Tokugawa Palace will give in and truly surrender to the Ming Dynasty, and there will be no rebellion."
Fu Tao's eyes were a little distorted as he listened to Ichiro Tanaka's words.
The Ming Dynasty's ambition to annex Japan is now known to everyone, but this Tanaka Ichiro doesn't seem to care at all. He just hopes that the Ming Dynasty will put pressure on the Tokugawa shogunate?
What is their purpose? They are not worried?
"What do you want to do?" Fu Tao stared at Tanaka Ichiro's eyes and said lightly.
Tanaka Ichiro lowered his head, put his hands on his thighs, and said without hesitation: "You don't know that this generation of Tokugawa Temple is no better than His Highness, and we are indecent. A wet nurse in Tokugawa Temple even openly humiliated the Emperor and forced the Emperor to abdicate! We need... to overthrow the Tokugawa Shogunate!"
Fu Tao heard about these things. He silently picked up a cup of tea and put it to his mouth. He felt that the tea was cold and then put it down, and said lightly: "So, what are the benefits of my Ming Dynasty? The Tokugawa shogunate is very strong. If you want to check and balance, my Ming Dynasty will have to pay a lot of price?"
Tanaka Ichiro said quickly: "Mr. Fu, my country is narrow and poor, and there is nothing to give to your country. However, if we can succeed, we will definitely submit to the Ming Dynasty. The annual tribute will definitely satisfy your emperor!"
Fu Tao's brows moved slightly. Tanaka Ichiro's words were like farting. The empty-mouthed person actually wanted the Ming Dynasty to send troops to help them weaken the strength of the Tokugawa shogunate!
However, Fu Tao's face was calm and said, "Well. Then let me tell you the wind. My Ming fleet has indeed gone north and will soon arrive in Jeju, North Korea. After a little renovation, it will block the Guanmen Strait and cut off the Tokugawa Shogunate's support to Kyuko Island. At the same time, the army will send troops to the Hokkien and capture the thunderous force. At that time, the Tokugawa Shogunate cannot take into account both the head and tail, and your opportunity will come. Although it is widely rumored that the court will send troops to Japan, the imperial court has no intention. This time, the troops will be sent at your request. I hope you will keep your promise."
Tanaka Ichiro listened to Fu Tao's words and suddenly looked up at him, looking shocked.
If it was said that the North Korean troops sent to Guanmen Strait were what they expected, then the sending troops to the Hokkien was completely beyond their expectations!
The Ekima, at the northernmost end of Japan, is the Hokkaido in later generations, is now mostly not cultivated, with only a few people, with a large area of land and sparse population, scarce supplies, and far away from Edo. The wars have not been implicated, so they have always been a vassal and have no strength.
The most important thing is that the Muaofan where Ida is located is located in the south of Ekima. It can be said that it is close to each other, just a distance from the sea water!
Tanaka Ichiro's eyes flashed violently. He couldn't tell the truth about Fu Tao's words, and guessed the true intention of the Opacity Dynasty.
On the other side, the charming woman in the room was slowly combed with her waist-length hair. Listening to Fu Tao's voice outside, she paused, her face was cold and her eyes were sharp.
They are now very clear about the strength of the Ming Dynasty. Not to mention the real results, even if they take several exercises, they will be talked about for a long time.
Japan is an island country with no depth. If the Ming Dynasty navy brought cannons to invade in large numbers, how could they resist? The Mu Ao Fan was the first to be blasted!
The woman looked cold and slowly combed again, her movements getting slower and slower. Finally, she stopped, stared at the mirror, and her eyebrows frowned into the character Sichuan.
This is even more true for Tanaka Ichiro outside. He guessed the intention of the opaque person and didn't know how to answer for a while.
Fu Tao did not give Tanaka Ichiro time to think, and said, "A young temple in the Tokugawa family has entered Beijing. I will go to see him later. What do you have to say to him, or I will take you there?"
Tanaka Ichiro's face changed slightly, and he immediately bowed and said, "Please keep it a secret for us. We need more things and can't turn against Tokugawa Palace!"
Fu Tao smiled slightly and said, "Okay. My Ming fleet will go out to sea soon. If you want to send a letter back, we can do it for you. In order to ensure that the military information does not leak, I hope you two will not go out of the inn or pass on messages at will."
