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

Chapter 219 Ryukyu Treats
  Zhu Xuan swept through the coast of Japan and defeated them all, then changed into the clothes of the Ming army and sailed away.

As for the Ashikaga Kotobuki tree, it has long been fed to the sharks.

During this raid, a lot of food and property, especially gold and silver, were stolen, which was piled up in a cabin. The Japanese country indeed had gold and silver mines, and they must have been digging them to get so much.

Zhu Xuan went to grab it casually and grabbed a lot.

No wonder so many people like to be pirates, it turns out to be so fun.

"We robbed this time. The Japanese country doesn't have four or five years to recover." Zhu Xuan said to himself.

"It's better this way. Your Highness can develop our fleet in another four or five years, build up our fleet, and plunder again, and we can make a lot of money." Hou Xian agreed with a smile.

This sentence won Zhu Xuan's heart.

It made him not want to exterminate the Japanese pirates. Wouldn't it be nice to keep the Japanese pirates, just like the small animals and big tigers raised in the garden, and harvest them when needed?

It's more enjoyable than cutting leeks.

"Your Highness, two warships are coming from our south."

Li Niu interrupted Zhu Xuan's thoughts and said: "I see that there is no flag of our Ming army on the ship. It may be the enemy."

Hearing that he might be an enemy, Zhu Xuan immediately said: "Get closer and see who it is. If it's an enemy, just hit him!"

The gun muzzle of the Yingtian ship turned, aimed at the warship in front, and rushed over through the wind and waves.

When the people on the two warships saw it, they stopped first and still waved their hands.

Zhu Xuan used a telescope to look out, and saw that the people on the boat did not have moon-shaped heads, and their clothes were similar to those of Ming Dynasty. He said: "Stop! Contact them to find out who they are."

Suddenly, a ship came towards their Yingtian ship. The people on the ship seemed to want to meet them, and Zhu Xuan was a little curious.

If it was Daming's ship that got lost overseas, as long as it was not for smuggling, he could help and take them back.

Seeing the Yingtian ship stop, the people on the ship shouted.

"Is this the warship of the Ming Dynasty?"

"We are people from Ryukyu, here to welcome the generals of the Ming Dynasty."

The sound of shouting came intermittently.

When Zhu Xuan heard that it was Ryukyu, he was deeply curious and continued to approach. Soon, both parties no longer needed to shout like that and could hear what the other party said.

"He is really from Ryukyu."

Zhu Xuan looked at the other party's boat and saw a man standing at the bow.

This man's name is Sango Ryode, and he is the nephew of Wu Ning, the current king of Ryukyu Zhongshan Kingdom. Not long ago, he went to Yingtian as an envoy to pay homage to Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Xuan had met him at a banquet.

Ryukyu is now divided into three countries.

It is also called the Three Mountains Era.

They are the three countries of Zhongshan, Shannan and Shanbei.

They use the reign name of the Ming Dynasty, are vassals of the Ming Dynasty, and respect the Ming Dynasty very much.

"How did you know I would be here?"

Zhu Xuan asked curiously, a little wary.

Sanwu Liangdie heard this voice, looked at it carefully, knelt down and said: "Greetings to His Highness the little emperor!"

Later, he explained: "Some of us came back from Japan and heard that there was a large ship that was plundering Japan everywhere. The only one with such ability here is the Ming Navy. We wanted to thank Daming, so we waited in the southern waters of Japan."

Zhu Xuan asked in confusion: "Why do you want to thank us?"

Speaking of this, Sango Liangtai's eyes turned red and he choked up: "The Japanese country is hateful. It has always bullied us Ryukyus and often has people come to plunder our things. This time, Your Highness has helped us get revenge. I am very grateful!"

Seeing Sanwu Liangdeng still looking a little humble, Zhu Xuan didn't know what to say for a while.

He was certain that Sanwu Liangdie knew that the Ming Dynasty's attack on Japan was not necessarily to avenge them, but they just went in on their behalf.

Although the people of Ryukyu are more or less related to Japan, they really hate Japan. “You’re welcome!”

Zhu Xuan said.

Sanwu Liangdie said again: "Your Highness, we would like to ask you to go back and sit for a while. Is that okay?"

Zhu Xuan thought for a long time and was not worried about what would happen to Ryukyu. After all, they were so small and could only rely on Ming Dynasty. He nodded and said: "Okay, you guys will lead the way!"

Sanwu Liangdeng said excitedly: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

After they finished speaking, they led the way and soon arrived at the north of Mount Ryukyu.

The kings of the three mountains are waiting in the north of the mountain.

In the cabin, Zhu Xuan selected some jewelry, jade, coral, etc. that had been plundered from the Japanese country, and asked Jin Yiwei to carry them off the ship.

"Greetings to Your Majesty!"

The king of Sanshan already knew that the person coming was Zhu Xuan.

Together they welcome Zhu Xuan to the land.

Zhu Xuan waved his hand and said: "You can share these things."

The Jin Yiwei carried the things up and opened the box. After seeing the things inside, Wu Ning from the Zhongshan Kingdom first said: "Your Highness helped us fight against the Japanese. We have nothing in return. How can we have the nerve to accept His Highness's property?"

Wang Min from Shanbei said: "We can't have it."

"Take it! These are all stolen from Japan."

Zhu Xuan waved his hand and looked up at Ryukyu.

The area here is extremely small and the population is not large. If their Yingtian ship comes to attack, Zhu Xuan is confident that they can completely capture it in less than half an hour. In such a small place, three people can appear Kingdom, I feel very strange.

"Aren't you going to take me back to have a look?"

Zhu Xuan said again.

Shannan King Wang Yingzu apologized: "This is our negligence. Your Highness, please come inside!"

Zhu Xuan went inside the island.

Hou Xian, Yan Guan, and Jin Yiwei were always with him.

Zheng He and the others stayed on board the Yingtian ship to prevent any emergencies.

The kings of the three mountains all gathered in the north of the mountain.

Min also has a palace in the north of the mountain, but it is small in scale and is just a little more luxurious than ordinary private houses.

They had all been to the Ming Dynasty and had seen how magnificent the imperial palace of the Ming Dynasty was. When they compared it with their own, they felt ashamed of themselves. Fortunately, His Highness the Little Emperor Sun of the Ming Dynasty did not care about this.

"Come here, let's serve wine, food, singing and dancing!" Min said.

"I'm still young, so forget about drinking, singing and dancing."

Zhu Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "Just give me something to eat. You don't need to be too wasteful, and you don't need to be too formal. You can really do whatever you want."

Having said that, they don't treat Zhu Xuan as a child.

Which family's child can go to sea and fight at the age of ten?
  They also destroyed almost the entire coast of Japan.

This is not a child, but a monster.

Zhu Xuan said: "You all sit down. In fact, I am ashamed to say that we, the Ming Dynasty, have never thought of helping you to come forward. This time I went to fight the Japanese country, and I did it willfully. Grandpa Huang and the others have not thought about developing on the sea for the time being. "

Wu Ning said: "The Ming Dynasty has a vast territory, many things, and busy affairs. It is normal that we cannot be taken care of for a while."

As a vassal state, if it is bullied, it can ask for asylum from the suzerain state.

However, Zhu Xuan said it so directly. The three kings were somewhat embarrassed. Regardless of whether they were willful or not, as long as the navy of Japan was crippled, that would be the best.
