Chapter 169 Assault on Tsushima Port
The water for making tea boiled, and Todo Takatora manipulated the tea set skillfully and gracefully. If people who don't know his background saw this scene, they would definitely think that Todo Takatora was an elegant man from the five surname nobles.

"I heard that Ukita and Ishida sent people back to China to request a retreat?"

Yoshitaka Kuki looked at Todo Takatora who was cooking tea for him.

Fujido Gaohu said with a mocking smile: "Yes, our people came back and said that many people in the army have secretly given them money, and they want them to take me back to Japan, and they don't want to stay in Busan anymore. It shows that the army is too terrifying, it is impossible to defeat them at all, and there is a possibility of being annihilated by the entire army at any time, Ukita and Ishida are really hard to ride this time."

"Wouldn't it be better to admit defeat earlier? Now that the situation is like this, they don't know how to end it, and we are also affected. That guy Yu Xiduo is so favored, and he is not the real commander in chief. He definitely won't What kind of punishment, but the rest of the people may not be sure, such as Ishida Mitsunari."

Jiugui Jialong took a sip of tea.

"I also heard that Konishi Xingchang and Kato Kiyomasa were not dead, and all their subordinates were killed, but they were captured alive by the Ming army, and they planned to return to Beijing to sacrifice to the Ming Emperor. Beheading, and then spreading their heads all over the whole of Ming Dynasty, I feel miserable just thinking about it! What kind of crime did they suffer?"

Fujido Takatora said pointedly.

"Although these two people are in the same situation, they are both Taige's very trustworthy people. If Taige finds out about the capture of these two people, in my estimation, with Taige's strong temper, I am afraid that he will not let it go easily. of."

Jiugui Jialong sighed slightly: "I don't know if we can live a peaceful life."

"But Taiko doesn't think about it. What is the gap between us and the Ming Dynasty now? The 15 Ming army sent [-] of our troops from Pyongyang back to Busan, and the loss of soldiers was no less than [-]! First, Chief Konishi , Kato Kiyomasa, and Kuroda Nagamasa are also dead, Kato Koyasu and Masuda Nagamori are also dead, and the generals and retainers below have died. Do you want to continue fighting in this situation? Isn’t that courting death? "

Jiugui Jialong shook his head: "You can't say that. After all, judging by the strength of the North Korean navy, it is impossible for them to threaten our mainland. They can't even threaten Tsushima Island. The Ming army only has an army and no navy. , we don’t have to worry too much, the only thing we need to do now is to rescue the remaining tens of thousands of troops, and then negotiate with the Ming Dynasty, it is best to end this battle, and never dare to continue fighting Already!"

Fujido Takatora smiled noncommittally, and filled Jiuki Jialong's teacup with some tea. He raised his eyes to see Kuki Jialong's face, and spoke cautiously.

"However, I also heard that the people in the army are saying that Taige's situation is not good. It seems that the reason why Taige deliberately hides it is that he doesn't want Taige to know that this matter will be too exciting. I I also heard that Taige also wrote letters to those big names of the Eastern Kingdom, explaining that the Kingdom was defeated by him, and he is asking the Ming Kingdom to sign a peace treaty, and the content of the peace treaty is... Hehehe... In your opinion, what should our navy do? "

Jiugui Jialong frowned slightly, and looked at Todo Takatora.

Fujido Takatora, in the history of the Warring States Period of Japan, was evaluated as a house slave of the eight surnames. He had served eight masters in total, almost three times more than Lu Bu's record. Anyway, he was definitely not a loyal person, but this was in the environment of the Warring States Period in Japan Under the circumstances, and the nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, it can only be said to be "the wisdom of survival".

He did rely on this survival wisdom to get along very well, no matter in the past or in the future, when the lord died, he lived well, the more he got around, the better.

However, this made Kuki Yoshitaka very displeased, thinking that he was disloyal to the lord, and could betray the lord at any time because of his own interests. If it wasn't because Toyotomi Hideyoshi admired his ability very much, he would not be willing to work with him. This time is even more so.

"Where the navy will go, naturally the Taige is in charge. We just need to obey the orders. As a minister and receiving a salary, we must be loyal to others. Don't take your own affairs too seriously, and consider everything for the lord. Fujido Jun, do you understand?"

Jiugui Jialong decided to hit Todo Takatora.

Fujido Gaohu was bored, secretly despised the old guy's stubbornness, and respectfully said "I have been taught", Jiugui Jialong saw that Fujido Gaohu's performance was okay, so he didn't say anything more. His eyes turned to the vast sea, worrying about the future of Japan and the future of the lord Toyotomi Hideyoshi, while Todo Takatora was thinking about the relationship with Tokugawa Ieyasu.

This is his unique survival wisdom. When he is under the command of a lord, he has to watch all directions and listen to all directions. It is a stupid way to follow him until he dies. Only with the right lord and the right team can he survive. This is ten thousand years immutable law.

Fujido Takatora had a relationship with Tokugawa Ieyasu a year ago, who he thought was most likely to become the ruler of Japan after Toyotomi Hideyoshi, especially after Tokugawa Ieyasu became the head of the five elders of the Toyotomi regime. The show of favor was even more blatant.

A lot of frontline news was collected by Todo Takatora through his own intelligence network and then passed on to Tokugawa Ieyasu to let him know. Unfortunately, the frontline battle situation was too tragic, the Japanese army lost too much, and many intelligence personnel also died in the hands of the Ming army. This couldn't help but make Fujido Gaohu frightened.

He tried every means to avoid fighting with the Ming army and even Li Sunshin, and tried every means to return himself to the country, but Toyotomi Hideyoshi's willful behavior made all this extremely difficult.

He is still living in the dream that everyone made up for him.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi is really old, confused, and even sick!
Why isn't he depressed?

After lunch, Fujido Takatora took his trusted retainers to the sea by boat, called patrol, in fact to relax, and looked for an opportunity to pass the information to Tokugawa Ieyasu. This is the way he and Tokugawa Ieyasu agreed, so he only brought his own The retainers and the headquarter's soldiers went out to sea in the same boat, Kuki Jialong would not care about these things, as long as he was not seen by other navy generals, Todo Takatora would not be afraid.

The sky was blue, and the sea was rippling, wave after wave, causing the hull to shake slightly. Todo Takatora successfully completed the information transmission this time, and returned to the normal patrol route.

Because the overall supply of the army has problems, the supplies transported in the country are getting less and less, and everyone is not full enough to eat, so the retainers took the opportunity to have fun, and several soldiers who were originally fishermen even tried to fish in the sea. Unexpectedly, he caught a few fresh sea fish, Fujido Takatora became interested, and ordered to cook these fish directly, and eat them on the boat.

He also took out a bottle of good wine that he treasured and shared it with his family members. In this regard, he has always been generous and is highly praised.

Eating and drinking, time passed by little by little, and everyone on the boat was a little bit drunk. A drunken general boarded the top of the boat, looked around as usual, looked around and saw nothing, and prepared to come down.

I don't know what happened, but after he turned around, he looked back, and he couldn't help frowning, thinking that he was dazzled by drinking too much, so he rubbed his eyes, and stared hard into the distance Look, I seem to see a few black spots, I don't know what they are.

After pondering for a while, his brain dulled by alcohol did not give a reasonable explanation. He simply stopped thinking about it, staggered off the boat, returned to the team drinking and eating fish and continued to be happy. After a while, this The general felt bloated and uncomfortable, so he pleaded guilty, and ran directly to the back of the ship to open the lock to release the water.

Blowing a ditty and opening the gate to release the water, enjoying the pleasure of revenge against the world, and sweeping away the pressure in the stomach, it was quite a joy. After a while, the water was drained, and the general stretched his waist to breathe in the cold and humid air Let yourself calm down and look up at the horizon in the distance.

Huh?what is that?
