Chapter 1401: Trouble with Japan

"General Wu, these people are a one-time buyout, and they will be your slaves from now on!"

Yuan Fanghe emphasized that Wu Yong now recruits people for twenty taels of silver a year, but buying a person means buying him for a lifetime.

Wu Yong looked at Yuan Fanghe. He didn't speak, he just looked at him repeatedly.

Yuan Fanghe felt terrified at the sight of Wu Yong. He didn't know what Wu Yong meant. Ten taels of silver per person was a very cost-effective deal. They were also taking risks in doing this business.

"It's too expensive, don't want it!"

Wu Yong refused directly, and he bought it out with two taels of silver. He didn't expect that the Japanese slaves who had been recruited could come back alive.

"You...then you can't even think of continuing to recruit people!"

Yuan Fanghe was angry. It was his mission to facilitate this deal. If he couldn't complete it, he would die if he returned.

"Just you?"

Wu Yong picked up a teacup and smiled as if he was going to throw it out again. This made Yuan Fanghe and several ghost-faced warriors nervous.

"It's not us, it's the Ping clan. This is Kansai, and it's the territory of the Ping clan. You have recruited 70,000 to 80,000 people in the past few months. The Ping clan has already asked Emperor Shirakawa to send troops to drive you away!"

Yuanfanghe directly threatened and led the disaster to the Ping family.

"Huh, if you want to fight, then fight. Do you think I will be afraid? Do you want to fall out? Then I will just fight!"

Wu Yong was not afraid, but threatened him.

"Let the army take action and take Tsushima Island!"

Wu Yong ordered to the soldiers around him that Tsushima Island was a large island only seen by Japan and Korea. Its strategic location was very important, but in order to paralyze Japan, they did not capture it immediately, but now is the time.

"you……"

Yuan Fanghe did not expect Wu Yong to be decisive and directly attack Tsushima Island, which was tantamount to declaring war.

"Didn't you say that Bird Emperor wants to attack my opponent? We in China have a saying that strikes first to gain the upper hand. If you want to fight, I will strike first!"

Wu Yong said.

Yuan Fanghe stood up and was about to leave. He felt that Wu Yong was a madman, a madman who could not communicate at all, and he wanted to pass the news back to his family.

"Go back and tell you, Master of the Genji family, that if you want to do it, show sincerity!"

Wu Yong didn't stop him and said this directly.

Yuan Fanghe looked back at Wu Yong, said nothing, and left with the warrior.

"Just a piece of trash!"

Wu Yong smiled and waved his feather fan.

"What are you pretending to be Zhuge Kongming!"

Ni Yun walked out of the back hall and was speechless looking at Wu Yong's expression. Wu Yong dared to dress like this even with the little ink in his belly.

"Hehe, isn't this just a show? You're dealing with Japanese slaves!"

Wu Yong said with a smile.

"Do you really want to fight Tsushima?"

Ni Yun looked at Wu Yong and asked.

"Of course we have to fight. We have to teach these Japanese slaves a lesson, otherwise they will think we are paper tigers!"

Wu Yong replied that once Tsushima Island was captured, the Qi navy would be blocked at the entrance of the Japanese country, and the cannons would even be pressed against the Japanese's foreheads.

"Okay, then I'll send someone to tell you!"

Ni Yun nodded and said, Japan has a lot of garrison on Tsushima Island, and if they want to fight, they have to take it all at once. "Besides, there is another harvest today!"

Wu Yong said inscrutably.

"What's the gain? Buying slaves?"

Ni Yun asked.

"No, it's the dispute between the Kanto Genji clan and the Kansai Taira clan. These two powerful clans can hardly hold it any longer."

"Today, Genji came here to do population business for two reasons. One is to use the census of the Taira clan in Kansai in exchange for money and weaken the Taira clan. The other is to provoke a fight between our Heira clan."

Wu Yong said, the Japanese country has been peaceful for so many years, and the two families of the Yuan family and the Heping family have accumulated too much power. Now the two families have become in conflict, and the fight will soon turn into a war.

This kind of thing was thought to be very hidden by the Genji clan and the Heijing clan, but that was for the isolated Japanese country. In China, it was normal thousands of years ago, and it has been happening continuously in recent years.

"Which side do you want to help?"

Ni Yun also understood what Wu Yong meant. The two families whose strength was almost as strong as the emperor knew what they would do next.

"No one will help! The Genji and the Heijing clan are too strong. It is not good for us to let them grow bigger. There are four major clans in Japan. In addition to the Genji and the Heijing clan, there are also the Fujiwara clan and the Tachibana clan. These two families are not as strong as the Genji and the Heijing clan, but It’s also an ancient family with some inheritance.”

"Coupled with Emperor Shirakawa and Emperor Toba, will the emperor be able to tolerate the emperor's control over the government? After all, let them become the prime ministers of the Six Kingdoms. Wouldn't it be wonderful?"

Wu Yong shook the feather fan in his hand and talked and laughed. At this moment, Wu Yong felt that he was really like Zhuge Kongming. Just while talking and laughing, he had the world's major events under his control.

"The Genji, Taira, Fujiwara, Tachibana, Emperor Shirakawa, and Emperor Toba. That's interesting!"

Ni Yun smiled and said, based on this calculation, the Japanese country will soon be in chaos.

"It's better to go overseas, they are all stupid fools!"

Wu Yong sighed in his heart. He was just a scholar. He had been teaching in the village for several years. Apart from his bright brain and many clever ideas, he didn't have much else to offer.

In Liangshan, Wu Yong had always had a low self-esteem. He, a wise man, really felt ashamed in front of Xiao Jiasui, Wen Huanzhang, and Xu Guanzhong. Those three were all resourceful strategists, and he could not compare at all.

Even compared to the slightly inferior Zhu Wu, he could not compare. Zhu Wu was proficient in various military formations and familiar with military tactics. He, a rural private school teacher, could only stare.

But since he went to sea, Wu Yong felt that he had become more independent. He could shape these stupid Koreans and Japanese people into circles as much as he wanted, and he could squeeze them into shapes whenever he wanted. This feeling of looking down on all living beings made him very proud.

"By the way, I still need to report the things here to you. I just received the news that His Majesty has made a triumphal return and returned to Liangshan City with his army. Liaodong and Xixia have been pacified!"

Ni Yun looked at Wu Yong and said, although Sun Lei ordered Wu Yong to make the decision on the affairs of Japan and Goryeo, he could only make the decision. Their navy had autonomy in military matters, and Wu Yong also needed to report the situation back.

"Of course!"

Wu Yong immediately said that everything he has now comes from Sun Lei and from Qi State, and he does not dare to overstep in the slightest.

"Your Majesty has triumphed, and we haven't sent you any congratulatory gifts yet!"

Wu Yong said again, but he really has nothing to offer here. The Japanese country is notoriously poor, and the silver mines have not yet been mined.

"If you win the battle, victory is the best gift!"

Ni Yun said, his idea is very simple, and it is also the most normal idea for military generals.

But Wu Yong didn't think so. He felt that the gift should be something realistic, and the good news should be what it should be.

"correct!"

Wu Yong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he clapped his hands and thought of something.

Ni Yun was very confused and didn't know what Wu Yong was thinking of. Wu Yong immediately smiled and whispered in Ni Yun's ear.

"You...you want face but don't..."

Ni Yun looked at Wu Yong with wide eyes.
