"That's it? Such a few people died?"

In the warm pavilion of Ganqing Palace, the lights in the glazed cover reflect the hall as if it was daylight.

Zhu Yunxi looked at the secret newspaper in Japan in his hand. The row seemed to be a little embarrassed. He also emphasized the number of the masters who died in battle. He couldn't help but make a slight surprise sound.

"According to the report of the Jinyiwei in Japan, this battle is actually a bit strange!" He Guangyi put half of his butt on a round stool and sat opposite Zhu Yunxi, "First, Ashikaga Yoshiman's army did not seem to have completely pulled away. Secondly, as soon as both sides met, the famous mountain masters directly used the firearm battalion and the horse team that should have been used as the reserve team!"

The firearms battalion was a mixed army of the Ming army and the Yama masters, while the horses were all Ming army. This armed force was lent to the Yama masters, and in order to ensure that the Yama masters were famous in Japan who opposed the Ashikaga Shogunate. In this regard, it always plays a dominant position. Secondly, it is the last and most reliable armed force that can be used to change the trend of war.

"In other words, Ashikaga Yoshiman did not do his best, and the famous Yamashiro attacked with all his strength, and ended up hitting the cotton!" Zhu Yunxiu pondered for a moment and said, "But that's it?"

"According to the leader of the Shanming Master, Qianhu and others, this should be the case!" He Guangyi said immediately, "Because although Ashikaga Yoshiman retreated in this battle, it was not the defeat that the Shanming Master claimed to be like a mountain of defeat. It's an orderly retreat!"

As he said that, he paused, "I'm afraid it's a trick to lure the enemy into the deep!"

Zhu Yunxiu thought for a moment, "Can we find out how many troops the Ashikagi Shogunate has in total?"

"The Ashikaga Shogunate is known as the Northern Army, and has Hosokawa, Issei, Akatsumatsu, Kyoko, and Spo, with a total of 45,000 people." He Guangyi obviously always observes the trends of Japan on weekdays, so these data come out," The Yama masters are the Nanjun, Toki, Ouchi, Shimazu, Otomo, Uesugi, Kobayakawa, Shinta, etc., with a total force of 35,000, including our Ming army in Japan! ”

"Are they all war soldiers?" Zhu Yun's expression condensed.

If a small island country can mobilize 80,000 full-time troops, it shows its organization and mobilization ability. It can be despised by strategy, but it must not be tactical.

"At least two-thirds can be called warriors!" He Guangyi said, "But they lack heavy infantry in the cavalry." Speaking of this, he looked at Zhu Yunxi's face and continued, "According to the Japanese report, in fact, The alliance of eight princes of Shanming Masters is not a solid piece of iron. Two or three princes of Shanming Masters have been dragging on. I think this is one of the reasons why Shanming Masters have to attack with all their strength as soon as the war begins!"

It is impossible to be a piece of iron! The so-called princes in Japan actually come from the surnames that have been passed down for several generations, such as the Hojo family, Fujiwara family, etc., including the leader of the Yamama family who opposed the Ashikaga shogunate this time. In fact, in the early years He is also the biggest supporter of the Ashikaga Shogunate.

"The messenger of the Ashikaga Shogunate is on the way!" Zhu Yunxiu looked at the report in his hand again and sneered, "He also brought tributes from three ships, haha!" As he said that, he looked at He Guangyi and asked with some questions, " Tell me, why did he come?"

"I guess I want to keep our Ming Dynasty out of trouble, or no longer support the famous mountain masters!" He Guangyi said.

This answer made Zhu Yunxi quite satisfied, and he said, "What's the reason?"

"The reason I say this is because there are three points. When one of them went to Japan for an envoy, the Ashikaga Shogunate was treated with extra courtesy. Ashikaga Yoshimi would always respect me. Secondly, the Ashikaga Shogunate already knew that I was behind the Ming Dynasty and was famous for Yama's famous family.

Wait for the Japanese princes to secretly support it. Third, he is afraid that I will directly use troops in the future!”

Zhu Yunxi nodded again and then asked again, "Then do you know why Ashikari Yoshiman is like this?"

Now, he asked He Guangyi directly and lowered his head and said, "I am stupid!"

"The biggest reason why he was respectful to the Ming Dynasty and always respected me, the Ming Dynasty, was not how much fear he had for the Ming Dynasty, nor was it because he admired the Han style from the Celestial Empire!" Zhu Yunxiu took the secret message in his hand

Put it on the candlelight and lit it, then throw it into the spittoon, and whispered, "It's because he, the shogun, has not yet achieved complete unity between Japan and the south!"

As he said that, he paused, "There is an enemy inside, but the strong man is outside. He Ashikaga Yoshiman has no capital to challenge the Ming Dynasty. Think about what Prince Huailiang sent to him in the past, what did he say?"

Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu's face was full of sneer, "He said that the Kingdom of Japan has been entirely based on the will of God for thousands of years, and their God does not allow them to pay tribute to foreign countries. Haha, this Prince Huailiang is a naughty man, different

It was more flexible and could not see the situation clearly, so it was his own fault for his mutiny and death later."

The current Ashikaga shogunate should be the weakest shogunate in Japan's history.

At this time, the split between the Southern and Northern Dynasties, which had lasted for hundreds of years in Japan, had just ended, but such unification was not considered unification at all. He still had a large number of opponents in Japan. His shogunate was a bit similar to Dong Zhuo holding the emperor to order the princes, and the local area

The warlords entered the center.

After the Ashikaga family controlled the center of Japan, all confidential officials were occupied by the Ashikaga family or their best friends, which caused dissatisfaction among many princes whose fiefs were in remote areas.

In recent years, even after the first Yamaine Rebellion and Ouchi Rebellion were put down one after another, Ashikaga Yoshiman was unable to ban these bans, but could only compress their sphere of influence and repeatedly accommodate them.

The seemingly unified Japan is actually just a marriage of warlords.

In such an unstable situation, Ashikaga Yoshiman urgently needed a strong foreign aid, that is, Daming.

Even if the Ming Dynasty could not give him substantial help, the trade-offs between the two countries would bring him huge economic benefits, and the enthronement of the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Empire could make his identity more legitimized.

In fact, in history, the Ashikaga Yoshiman period was also a rare honeymoon period between the Ming Dynasty and Japan.

But Zhu Yunxiu believes that he is to take your life while you are sick!

At this time, the weak Japan was the best time for the Ming Dynasty to take action.

In fact, Zhu Yunyu was not interested in the territory over there at all, and Zhu Yunyu was even less interested in the people who had assimilated the people over there through generations to become the Ming Dynasty.

All he wants is to fight! Let them fight forever and fall into endless disputes. It is best to completely separate them from the east, west, south, and north, treat each other as enemies and fight forever, so that their only little capital will be completely squandered.

By then, if they have nothing, the only thing they can beg for is the Ming Empire.

"Envoyee, I won't see you!" Zhu Yunxiu spoke again, thinking, "You go, Li Jinglong will go too!"

"I obey the order!" He Guangyi understood in his heart when he saw the emperor say this.

"I think it's a snake!" Zhu Yunxiu smiled again, "If you should, you should accept the gifts, but if you can say it is too obscure, you should say it is too obscure. You neither reject him nor agree to him, let him guess it yourself!"

"I understand!" He Guangyi agreed and said in his heart, "When I meet Li Jinglong, I am afraid that the envoys of the Japanese will squeeze out the egg yolks!"

"Also, I'll give orders to the Japanese garrison!" Zhu Yunxi's expression suddenly became cold, "They were seconded soldiers, who asked them to obey the command of famous mountain masters? The Qianhu led the team was dismissed and sent new people to go.

!”

"The Japanese people will fight by themselves. They will not take action until the famous Shan Mingjia is defeated!"
