Daming: I am the most powerful emperor grandson, please abdicate the throne

Chapter 218 Ashikaga Yoshimitsu
  The people on the coast of Japan, whether they are ordinary people or soldiers of Japan.

At this time, they saw another warship appear, and they were trembling with fear. They had just been ravaged by the Yingtian ship, and now another Ming warship was approaching. They didn't know what to do.

All the Japanese naval forces were defeated by Zhu Xuan.

Seeing Ming army warships sailing around the coastline, they could only launch defense on the shore, but such defense seemed very weak.

Fortunately, the Ming Navy only sailed around their island without starting a fight. Finally, the separated Ming Navy reunited on the south side of Hokkaido.

Xu Huizu couldn't find Zhu Xuan.

What they saw along the way showed many signs of being bombarded by divine cannons.

I just can't find where the Yingtian ship is.

Seeing that all the Japanese naval forces were bombed, Xu Huizu could finally rest assured that Zhu Xuan was not in danger at the moment. No one could be the opponent of the Yingtian ship on the sea.

But where did the people go?
  This is where they struggle most.

Xu Huizu would inevitably feel impatient, so he left from southern Hokkaido, walked all the way south, and returned to the vicinity of Kyushu Island.

"Catch a few Japanese and come here to question them!"

Xu Huizu ordered.

Other warships approached Kyushu Island, and soldiers landed to capture people.

After about half an hour, they caught a Japanese man and threw him in front of Xu Huizu.

This Japanese was very afraid of death. When he saw Xu Huizu, he knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy.

"Where did the big ship that attacked your Japanese country go?" Xu Huizu asked.

"South...south!"

The Japanese man trembled and pointed to the south of the Japanese country.

A soldier said: "General, to the south is Ryukyu."

Your Highness still wants to conquer Ryukyu?

This idea appeared in Xu Huizu's mind, but it shouldn't have happened.

Ryukyu has always been very respectful to the Ming Dynasty. His Highness should not attack Ryukyu. After thinking for a while, he killed the Japanese with a knife and shouted: "Throw it into the sea to feed the fish. Let's go to Ryukyu."

This time, no matter what, we must find Zhu Xuan.

We must take Zhu Xuan back.

He no longer dared to let Zhu Xuan mess around outside.

-

Heian Jing.

"Dad, the Ming army has retreated!"

Ashikaga Yoshimochi walked into Sokokuji Temple in Japan and came to Luen-in Temple.

In front of him was a short monk, facing the Buddha statue, holding a rosary, chanting some words, and reciting some Buddhist scriptures.

He is Ashikaga Yoshimitsu.

Within the Japanese country, he held a high and powerful position, just like Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period, who held the emperor in power to order the princes.

After the Southern Dynasty surrendered to the Northern Dynasty, the entire Japanese country was under the control of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. Although he was now a monk, he was still the real power behind the Japanese country. The status of the Ashikaga family was unshakable in the Japanese country.

"That big ship that came out of the blue attacked our Japanese country, destroyed all our naval warships, and killed countless of our soldiers. After the big ship went south, another group of Ming army warships came immediately. That This big ship is definitely related to the Ming army."

Ashikaga Yoshimochi said again.

Zhu Xuan ordered the Yingtian ship to sail around the Japanese country, plundering countless properties, doing so tyrannically, and then flew away, so that no one in the Japanese country dared to bite. The Japanese only knew that the big ship was terrible, and they had no room to fight back. However, they did not know the origin of the big ship and could not directly determine who it belonged to. Although they could guess that it came from the Ming Dynasty, there was no evidence.

Because the people on the ship directly identified themselves as pirates.

After capturing their port, those people landed and plundered in various ways, which were more cruel than their Japanese pirates. They burned, killed, and looted even more cruelly, but they couldn't do anything, and they couldn't be beaten again and again.

Ashikaga Yoshimichi could only summon all the Japanese pirates back to the Japanese country and prepare to resist Zhu Xuan.

However, as soon as the two sides collided, the Japanese pirates were completely defeated by the Yingtian ship. In the end, the Yingtian ship flew away, leaving only the Japanese navy with damaged water on the ground.

In this battle, the losses were heavy.

Ashikaga Yoshinori regretted that he should not have taken the initiative to provoke the Ming Dynasty for the sake of Ashikaga Yoshinori.

Sending Japanese pirates to invade the Ming Dynasty was their most incorrect choice.

The Ming Dynasty Navy led by Xu Huizu circled the island and frightened them until their legs weakened. Now that the Ming Navy Navy retreated, they could breathe a sigh of relief.

"Kublai Khan led hundreds of warships and couldn't even capture Tsushima Island."

"A large ship from the Ming army swept across our Japanese country."

"After all, we underestimated Ming's strength."

After hearing everything, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu put down the rosary beads in his hand, squinted his eyes slightly, and said: "I have told you a long time ago, do not easily attack the Ming Dynasty for the sake of Ashikaga Yoshinori. We have suffered such revenge from the Ming Dynasty, and in the next few years , don’t even think about reorganizing the navy. Without a powerful navy, I’m afraid I can’t even defeat Ryukyu. In addition, the Ming Dynasty has robbed so much property and food, and the country is severely damaged. You will have to deal with famine next.”

Ashikaga Yoshimochi lowered his head and looked like he had admitted his mistake. He was very regretful. He thought for a long time and said: "But I can't do it either. Seeing the people of the Ming Dynasty bullying our people, my brother's life has been ruined!"

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu shook his head and said: "So what? You are still not cruel enough and don't know how to be patient. You still need to continue to practice. The matter is over, that's it! What does the emperor say?"

Ashikaga Yoshimochi said: "The emperor said that he wants to send people to the Ming Dynasty to seek peace."

"Begging for peace?"

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu hummed softly: "There is no need to ask for peace. The Ming army will not invade our island for the time being. They just want to retaliate for our Japanese pirates' intrusion and deliberately disguise themselves as Japanese pirates to plunder. Next, you must rebuild our navy and continue Send spies to Yingtian and find ways to sneak into their science pavilion and obtain those scientific knowledge."

What they were worried about was not the Yingtian ship.

But science.

According to the intelligence of spies, the strength of the Ming army mainly comes from science.

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was ambitious and deeply interested in those sciences. As long as he could get it, he could realize his ambition. He asked again: "Is there any news about Ashikaga Hisuki?"

"no!"

Ashikaga Yoshimochi shook his head.

They were basically certain that Ashikaga Hisuki was dead.

Never come back.

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu waved his hand: "Go down! Be prepared to deal with famine and domestic unrest. We will not be too happy internally next. Don't worry about other things for the time being, and we can no longer send Japanese pirates to intrude on the Ming Dynasty. Things will be fine." That’s it.”

They thought that the Ming army was just here to plunder.

After the plundering, they left and would not come back in a short time. As long as they survived, the Japanese country could return to normal and develop again in the future.

"Hi!"

Ashikaga Yoshimochi bowed.

When he left, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's face was gloomy and he held the rosary tightly.

His son was deposed, and no matter how much he could keep calm, he could not calm down when he was full of anger, but he was more tolerant and would not explode.
