Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 167 It's fine if you can't stand the pressure, but you're still whimsical?

Li Bin's ability is still there.

In the seventh year of Yongle, Li Faliang in Jiangxi rebelled, and Li Bin was ordered to lead an army to encircle and suppress them. Although Li Faliang led some miscellaneous troops, in terms of combat effectiveness, they were no different from the Japanese army that Zhu Zhanhe had encountered before.

But that's not the case later, what we have to face later is the permanent army of the Wa Kingdom.

In fact, the resistance Zhu Zhanhe encountered before was very average. Firstly, it was influenced by the Japanese military system. Every time there was a war, they would carry it out like this, so they did the same when facing the Ming army this time.

These two are the internal factors of the Wa country.

Heiankyo, Muromachi.

The reason why the current Wa country is called the Muromachi shogunate era is that Ashikaga Takashi, who created this era, originally established the shogunate in Muromachi in Heiankyo.

However, although Ashikaga Takashi brought Wa country into the Muromachi shogunate era as early as 1336, there was a very serious problem in Wa country, and it lasted for a long time.

After the Jianwu New Deal, the interests of the samurai class were severely cut by the emperor, which aroused dissatisfaction among the samurai class, especially the fallen general Ashikaga Takaji.

He intended to create a new shogunate, but the emperor's actions undoubtedly made him sever this idea.

Therefore, Takashi Ashikaga led the uprising of the samurai class, forced the then Emperor Go-Daigo to abdicate, and established Emperor Komei, who was in charge of Meiin, and this emperor canonized Takashi Ashikaga as the general of conquering barbarians, satisfying his wish to establish a shogunate.

However, this is also the beginning of the problem.

Emperor Go-Daigo, who was forced to abdicate, was unwilling to give up, and managed to escape from Heian-kyo, and took the three artifacts symbolized by the emperor, and retreated to Yamato.

Since then, the country of Wa has entered the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties where two emperors stood side by side, which is known in history as "two emperors in one day and southern Beijing".

Of course, it is the history book of the Wa country.

It was not until the 25th year of Hongwu that Emperor Gokameyama, a descendant of the original Emperor Go-Daigo, returned the three artifacts symbolized by the Emperor to the Northern Dynasty, that is, Emperor Gokomatsu under the rule of the Ashikaga Shogunate. This ended the Southern and Northern Dynasties of the Wa Kingdom.

In other words, the real unification of the Wa country has only been in the past [-] years.

Moreover, although Emperor Houguishan of the Southern Dynasty voted for the Northern Dynasty, the Japanese people of the Southern Dynasty, or the great feudal lords, were not willing to join the Northern Dynasty. This is why Zhu Zhanhe encountered such little obstacles.

The Ashikaga shogunate also wanted to take this opportunity to completely unify the Wa country, but the current shogun Ashikaga Yoshichi miscalculated.

In his plan, if the Ming army wanted to attack the Wa Kingdom, they would first attack the Southern Dynasty first, because this was inevitable due to the terrain. At this time, he would not send troops, and let the Ming army vent on the land of the Southern Dynasty.

He wanted to wait until the Ming army had vented enough and withdrew their troops, and then he would come forward to clean up the mess, and then he would be able to unify the Wa country.

Before, Zhu Zhanhe had settled down for a while after taking down Iwami Ginzan, which gave Ashikaga Yoshichi a wrong signal: the Ming army was about to withdraw.

But now, seeing that Zhu Zhanhe led his army to conquer Izumo, Hoki and Inaba all the way, and as long as he broke one more Tajima, he would be able to cross the dividing line between the Southern and Northern Dynasties of Wa Kingdom and approach Kyoto, he finally panicked.

Moreover, the pressure he has to face does not stop there.

Ashikaga Yoshichi's shogun status is not secure, because he also has a younger brother.

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu’s father, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, never had a son in his early years. Both his wife, Hino Yeko, and his second wife, Hino Yasuko, failed to give birth to a son. Ashikaga Yoshimitsu had no choice but to let Hino Yasuko adopt Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. Then make him his son-in-law.

Later, Ashikaga Yoshichi's life became smoother. When he was nine years old, his father gave him the position of shogun, but his father was transferred to be the Minister of the Taizheng. The Shogun is actually just a decoration.

However, at this point in time, Ashikaga Yoshichi's fate became turbulent again.

Also in this year, his younger brother, his father's legitimate son, Ashikaga Yoshitsu was born.

As the youngest son, plus he is still the first son, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu naturally dotes on Ashikaga Yoshinori, and it is for this reason that the relationship between Ashikaga Yoshimitsu and his father began to deteriorate.

Four years ago, that is, in the eighth year of Yongle, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu took Ashikaga Yoshimitsu to meet Emperor Komatsu, trying to replace the candidate for the shogun.

However, before the replacement of the shogunate began, their father Ashikaga Yoshimitsu died of illness, and Ashikaga Yoshimitsu seized the only remaining opportunity to drive his younger brother out.

However, this did not make his shogunate position stable, because he had no reason to kill his younger brother, so that he would never suffer from future troubles. At the same time, Emperor Komatsu did not like the shogunate to hold all the power, and began to unite with Ashikaga who was driven out of Kyoto. Heir.

Originally, the internal affairs were unstable, and it had only been four years since he was actually in power, and now he encountered the attack of the Ming army, and the voices opposing Ashikaga Yoshichi in the ruling and opposition parties became louder and louder.

If the matter of the Ming army cannot be properly resolved this time, Ashikaga Yoshichi may be pushed down.

This is not the most frightening thing, the most frightening thing is that the Muromachi Shogunate era, which is already at the end, is likely to end here, and the Warring States Period will start before the appearance of Oda Nobunaga.

"Come on!" Ashikaga Yoshichi, who had a headache, had no choice but to try the most basic methods one by one.

-

Inaba.

Zhu Zhanhe actually didn't like to lead troops to fight, or it should be said that he didn't like to deal with the stable work of the end of the war, which was too time-consuming.

But it won't work if he doesn't deal with it. Now he is going to sea to conquer. Once the problems behind him are not dealt with properly, he may fall into a situation of being surrounded.

Although Wang Jinghong would lead the fleet to bypass the enemy's encirclement and meet him from the coast as soon as this situation arises, there will always be losses, and they will not be small.

"His Royal Highness!"

Zhu Ling's voice made everyone turn their attention to him, because people could hear a little difference from Zhu Ling's voice.

"Speak." Zhu Zhanhe looked at the finishing report Mu Xin sent up, and said without raising his head.

"His Royal Highness, the Japanese shogun sent an envoy to negotiate peace with His Royal Highness!"

"Huh?" Zhu Zhanhe was stunned for a moment, and asked a little dullly.

"Shogun? Peace talks?"

"Yes!"

"Hehe..." Zhu Zhanhe laughed very brightly.

"pass!"

"Yes!"

……

Outside the camp of the Ming army, whether it was a general like Li Bin or the most ordinary soldiers, they all surrounded Zhu Zhanhe's tent, wanting to hear the voices inside.

Since the conquest of the Wa Kingdom, it was the first time that they saw an envoy sent by the Wa Kingdom, and it was still a peace talk.

It's just that they didn't dare to get too close, and they didn't dare to speak loudly.

In the camp, Zhu Zhanhe looked at the envoy sent by Ashikaga Yoshichi with a playful expression.

There is no other reason. When the messenger came, he also brought a peace talks edict and a list of compensation.

But in Zhu Zhanhe's view, this Ashikaga Yoshichi thought a little too much.
