Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 595
No wonder the great powers were willing to fight during the Qing Dynasty, and the benefits were really obvious.

Shikoku Island adds a piece of agricultural harvest with 100 million shi. Although Song Qingshu gave Changzong Ibu to save face, the grain harvest was still handed over to him by the farmers who are known as the descendants of Qin Shihuang, but the sole management right of this food belongs to After joining the West India Company, Changzong and our family have no problem eating their own food. Every grain sold has to be managed and priced by Song Jing, the major shareholder in charge of the place.

The big head also has Polygonum indigo produced by Abbott. The Apo blue dyed by this kind of plant-extracted blue fuel is famous throughout Japan. The warriors are also proud to wear Apo blue clothes. This is also owned by the West India Company. In Daming, support The main source of income for the West India Company is the clothing industry. Almost immediately after the war, Fan Mingjing and Gu Mei, the major shareholders who brought his wife, have already started to set up a factory. If everything goes well, tens of thousands of barrels of blue fuel can be supplied to the country every year.

And labor wages here are also cheap. An adult Japanese man can give half a stone of rice a month. The Japanese are still in a serious feudal era, and wealth is mainly gathered in the hands of the samurai class and daimyo. Some low-level farmers have grown rice all their lives. I have never tasted the taste of my own rice. The temptation of rice is higher than money here.

What is left of Xiaozong is cotton called Sanki Sanbai, sugar, salt, sour oranges from Awa, dried noodles, sweetfish from Tosa, green bamboo, pearls from Iyo, the place where everything can make money, West India The company intervenes and cooperates with the local tyrants to develop it. If everything goes well, Shikoku Island can bring the company an income of 300 million taels a year.

This time, all the military expenses plus rewards, the pension is only 3906 million taels, and it will be fully repaid in less than two years.

However, whether it can make back its capital depends on the operation of Song Qingshu, the major shareholder.At least for now, all shareholders are optimistic. The main force of the 25 shogunate army was defeated in the Great Takasaka Yamashiro World War I. Doi, Nishio, Yamaguchi, Ogasawara, Ikeuchi, Maeda Hosokawa, Date and other four NO.50 were mobilized. Pudai, the foreign daimyo, and the family governor fell into the hands of the Qihuo army. The number of Japanese troops who surrendered and captured successively reached 15, even multiples of the Qihuo army's own army.

So many captives made the West India Company's Cao Sanxi and Qu Boju Cola blossom in Southeast Asia. In Luzon, Borneo and Batavia, many new veins were discovered, but the locals in Southeast Asia People are too lazy and lazy, and these guys who live a primitive life are not willing to go to the mines to do coolies. The two of them are short of labor.

More than 5 Japanese samurai recruited by the Seventh and Eighth Army of the Third Army of the Shogunate from the pro-fan daimyo and Fudai daimyo, the untrustworthy guys were dispatched to the South Pacific along with their family governor to mine for the West India Company .

The remaining more than [-] have all become honest and honest with this lesson learned from the past, obediently accepting the reorganization of the Ming Dynasty, Song Qingshu appointed Changzong, our department and assistant as the leader of Kansai without authorization, and made those foreign names and trustworthy The Fudai daimyo's army was organized into ten armies, which nominally accepted the command of Kansai.

It took more than a month to deal with these trivial matters. At the end of May, Song Qingshu led a mighty 16 army and landed from the Naruto Strait where the shogunate attacked, and marched towards Kyoto in mighty fashion.

The shogunate did make some preparations along the way. The Kii Tokugawa family of the Yusan family organized a team of almost 4000 people in Wakayama. The troops have been gathered and the Jiyi Fan has been defeated.

Immediately, Satsuma, Changzhou, and Fukuoka, which have been stagnant, now know how to stand in line. About 4 samurai from each domain are also marching towards the Kanto. Around mid-June, Song Qingshu has gathered An army of 20 marched to the center of the entire Wa Kingdom, Yamato!

The Shogunate’s Liuboluo Tanti soldiers and horses also collapsed without fighting, and the Japanese Emperor also photographed an envoy, who went to the army to greet and condolence to the generals of the Celestial Dynasty. If Song Qingshu was a Japanese daimyo, now he has reached the stage that all daimyos dream of , Shangluo, the next step is to open the shogunate, implement samurai politics, and rule the whole of Japan.

But even if Song Qingshu is not, the power of the entire Wa country is temporarily in his hands. More than two-thirds of the family governors and daimyo are detained in his hands, and almost the vast majority of the Japanese army is also controlled in his hands. Now The weight of Song Qingshu's words has far surpassed that of Tokugawa Iemitsu.

However, in such a situation where the world was paying attention, Song Qingshu, who was one step away from the title of world man, stopped his army in my grandson city in front of the capital, and did not move forward any further.

To be honest, Song Qingshu also wanted to go to Edo in one go. Didn’t the little Japan of later generations always deny the Nanjing Massacre?He simply carried out the Tokyo massacre first, so as to save these Japanese people from jumping again, but the reality is that it is still quite difficult for him to take down Edo and destroy the shogunate.

On the one hand, Kanto is the birthplace of the samurai class. When Genpei fought together, Minamoto Yoritomo assembled the strength of the Kanto samurai, defeated the Heike family in one fell swoop, and established the Kamakura Shogunate. If Tokugawa Iemitsu puts all his strength into the position of leader, it will not be a problem for the Yusanjia and Fudai daimyo to recruit another 15 to [-] troops, but Song Qingshu will not have a second Shikoku Island to trick them up. Even if Song Qingshu mobilized the power of the West India Company to destroy the shogunate, it would take at least another three or four years.

Where does he have three or four years?

And the morale of the army itself is not stable. Among the 16 Japanese troops, except for Chang Zong, our department and the assistant, all the belongings are on him. It is the restitution of the great government and the request to return the emperor, which in itself harms the vital interests of the various daimyos who were born as samurai. More than 600 years ago, the samurai seized the world from the guard house of the minister. The landlord, but the Gongqing was emptied.

Today is not the era when the shogunate of the later generations has decayed and Japan has been awakened by repeated invasions by Western powers. The newly established Tokugawa shogunate samurai rule is still very stable. This can be seen from the fact that Tokugawa Iemitsu can summon 25 troops in one go. It can be seen that in the later wars, the shogunate can only gather [-] to [-] troops, which is shabby in comparison. Because of the political stability of the samurai family, the samurai of the ruling class are absolutely unwilling to become the spectator of the public again. Home Nursing Home.

Another point is that Song Qingshu is a Ming person after all, and he is an outsider to all daimyos. He can suppress these daimyos by force for a while, but he cannot suppress them forever. Sooner or later, troubles will arise, just like Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Toyotomi Hideyoshi Quan was a high school student, but he was only a commoner, and was not recognized by most of the samurai families. A few years after his death, the Toyotomi family was eradicated.

To be honest, if Song Qingshu was a bachelor, he would be happy to pat his ass and leave, and let Wa country enter the Warring States era again, but now he is also dragging his family, and the huge West India Company still counts on him to make money!Therefore, a slightly stable Wa country is also what he needs, and he can no longer let the big names from all over the world fight.

Because of the above reasons, they stopped in my grandson city. The emperor sent envoys six times in a row to invite the great general of the Celestial Dynasty to Shangluo, but Song Qingshu delayed them for various reasons. He stayed in my grandson city for sixteen or seven days. The general's indifference towards the emperor, immediately among the daimyo who surrendered to him, sent an ambiguous message to everyone.

It seems that Song Qingshu is not so determined to completely overthrow the shogunate and return to power!

Naturally, it is impossible for a daimyo to be an idiot. All the daimyo traced the matter back to the source, only to realize in a daze that this war started when the shogunate expelled the Ming people and ordered to sever all ties with the daimyo. It sounds good, return the Emperor!In fact, it was Tokugawa Iemitsu who violated the interests of Daming, or the interests of the Marshal Song in front of him, so the fight started.

That is to say, if you want to end the current tense situation, you just need to change to a shogun who is in line with the interests of Ming Dynasty. Opportunity to establish a new shogunate.

Back then, the morale of the Warring States Period in Japan and the disputes between the various daimyos arose in order to seize the position of the shogun of the Ashikaga family, the title of the leader of the world's samurai?
Next, Song Qingshu's life in my grandson city became more nourishing, and he went to Shimadzu's house, Kuroda's house, Mori's house, Date's house, and the foreign names with hundreds of thousands of stones, as small as only a few thousand, one or two Wanshi's common daimyo, Abe, Watanabe, and Okubo's family, all came to give gifts to the castle tower occupied by Song Qingshu.

The gifts were also various, such as antler and deer whips, precious medicinal materials, coral treasure trees, pearl agates, mines and farms, and even brought their daughters to propose marriage. One of them, a young lady called Hinata Hinata, really moved Song Qingshu. It's a pity that Li Xiangjun, the eyeliner of the women in the family next to him, stared at him covetously, but none of the women were confiscated.

However, except for Abe's family who was beaten out with gifts, Song Qingshu who was left to give gifts did not refuse anyone.

Among them, the happiest one is Changzong Wobu Yuzhu. To be honest, Changzong Wobu can be regarded as the poorest of hundreds of thousands of famous names. He has only returned home for a few months, and everything in his hands is the most valuable Song Qingshu's resources are still directly in the hands of Song Qingshu, so this old guy in his decades simply played the emotional card, and he followed Song Qingshu wherever he went every day. Squatting in the toilet, he was waiting outside holding paper, hoping that Song Qingshu would be happy and give him the title of Shogun.

It's a pity that among all the big names, his Changzongwobu clan is the most hopeless one. The reason why Changzongwobu clan can get close to Daming is because they claim to be the descendants of Qin Shihuang's son Gong Yuejun, and the bad things are here. The samurai believe that only the descendants of Genji and Heira can open the mansion. Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who was in power at the time, was because he was not a descendant of Genpei. The family's Konoe was a godfather a long time ago, and finally he was given the surname Toyotomi by the emperor, so he became Kanbai and ruled Japan.

His Changzonggabu family is obedient, but even if Song Qingshuqiang gave him the title of Shogun, he can't hold it, and he will be taken back by the Tokugawa family sooner or later.

Things continued until mid-July, when a huge turning point came. Sakai Tadakatsu, in the name of Edo Tokugawa's family, also came to my grandson city to meet Song Qingshu.

The shogunate has also begun to give in!
