Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Inside the Heiankyo Palace, the curtains are embroidered with cherry blossom patterns. At first glance, it looks like a boudoir, but there is a man sitting on a chair inside. On the table in front, there were two things, a suicide note full of blood, and a memorial full of blood and tears.

Standing bowed on both sides of the palace were many ministers and ministers, including Miyori Fujiwara, the minister of sekiguan, who was also present. Everyone was silent, and a sad and mournful atmosphere enveloped the entire palace.

Miyori Fujiwara has learned about several wars on land and sea from all sides, and he already knows very well that it has become impossible to continue the war and maintain the existence of the Heianjing court!

Today, if we continue to fight, the only result is to lose Ping'an Jing... Ping'an Jing is not only a capital city for the Japanese imperial court, almost all the officials and nobles live here, and their fundamental strength is also here. If Heiankyo is lost and the capital is temporarily moved, Miyori Fujiwara does not think that the current monarchs and ministers can still maintain their rule over the country; their long-standing status will become as cheap as grass.

The complicated situation became very clear at this time.

At this time, someone bowed and said: "I can only order the kings of Qin in the name of His Majesty, and gather troops to the south of Ping'an Jing to fight against Xu Jun's bandits..."

None of the ministers echoed the response. Even now, there are still people who hold such remarks. It is really hard to say something... Everyone has been silent for so long.

At this moment, the mysterious and supreme person in the curtain finally spoke, and he said slowly: "No matter what, the people of Japan will face great suffering, and my heart is very painful.

I can't bear to see the warriors and the common people die in vain. Perhaps the prestige and face of the imperial court will be questioned, but the country of Japan will still exist, and the people of Yamato will still have to live..."

"Your Majesty!" Miyori Fujiwara breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, but her face was in extreme pain, and she fell to her knees and wept uncontrollably. Suddenly, many people knelt down in front of the emperor.

The emperor may feel that his words are not clear and direct enough, so he paused and said: "I just want to end the war and killing as soon as possible, so that the people will be spared the pain of being ravaged|ravaged as soon as possible."

Inside and outside the palace, there was a burst of wailing and weeping one after another, like a national mourning.

The heartbroken | humiliated minister gradually came to his senses, and proposed to punish Ono Haogu and his family as sinners who brought disaster to the country and the people. Cheng Ming said: "The dead are dead, and it's not right to humiliate Ono-kun's soul again. There is no need to ask about his crimes. Since he died for the country, regardless of his merits or demerits, his spiritual seat can still be enshrined in the shrine."

The emperor seldom decides anything. At this time, no one objected after everyone heard it, and they all agreed.

…A few days later, when the Han Tong navy approached the port of Nambakyo (Osaka), there was a magnificent building sailing in front of it, with a white flag hanging on it.

The soldiers on the warship waited and waited for the order from the Chinese army. Han Tong went up to the deck and observed that the tall ship was different from the Japanese ships he usually saw. He guessed that it might be an envoy, so he ordered the prohibition of using force, and first brought the envoy up to ask about the situation.

After a long time, a warship put down the boat and rowed an envoy to the giant Mulan ship for a search.

The envoy was brought in front of Han Tong and the others, and immediately bowed and said in Chinese: "Your Majesty is an envoy sent by the Lord of Japan to meet the distinguished Commander of the Daxu Navy. Our Lord has prepared gifts such as rice and fuel at Namba Port in order to receive Daxu's officers and men. I hope the Marshal can exercise a little restraint and negotiate peacefully..."

"Huh?" Lu Duosun blurted out a surprised voice on the side. Civil officials are very sensitive to address etiquette, and this official called the Emperor of Japan the lord of the country. The etiquette is very humble, which surprised Lu Duoxun.

Even Wu Fu Han Tong is not good at being unreasonable, after all, he will not hit the smiling face...

Han Tong frowned and said, "Japan is here to ask for peace?"

The envoy looked slightly embarrassed, bowed and said: "My country's monarchs and ministers treat the commander with sincerity. All the ships in the port of Namba are withdrawn from the port for the warship of Daxu to dock. Supplies and supplies are prepared in the port, and the officers and soldiers of Daxu can be stationed; and it is guaranteed that there will be no hostile behavior on land and water... After the commander is stationed ashore, how about I discuss it with the commander in detail?"

Han Tong tilted his head slightly, and the supervisor Lu Duoxun nodded slightly. This matter is simply irresistible. After all, the other party first gave up the important port, returned the navy's foothold on the shore, and sent supplies... Even if the negotiation fails, it will not be too late to start the war.

Han Tong didn't hesitate immediately, and readily agreed to the request of the Japanese envoy to sail the fleet into the port first, and then occupy the place.

After entering Namba Port, a lot of food and firewood were prepared, and more officials came to receive them. Han Tong asked Lu Duoxun to test the conditions of the Japanese court...

The most important condition, when the envoys met, it showed that the emperor was willing to give up the title of emperor and be reduced to the lord of the country; he also said that he would accept the canonization of Emperor Daxu as king and pay tribute every year.

With the righteousness of the monarch and ministers, mining, commerce, etc. will have a name.

Han Tong also proposed to lease the Dasen area of ​​Ishijian country, which would be directly under the jurisdiction of the Daxu court. The Japanese envoy was unexpectedly happy, and immediately agreed... Maybe there is no condition to talk about with the knife resting on his neck!

Everyone gathered their energy and came forward to fight, but unexpectedly, the opponent's posture, the generals did not recover for a while.

That night, after the Chinese army deployed defenses and scouts, the civil and military officials of the military government discussed countermeasures in a courtyard at the port. Even Zan Jurun, who was almost killed by the Japanese army, said: "The Japanese state has paid tribute and handed over the silver mountain. There is no reason for us to fight. I think we should send people back to the court to report to the officials before making a decision."

Everyone echoed... Fighting is nothing more than asking the other party to agree to one's request. Now that Japan has such a posture, I really don't know why it is fighting again.

The generals sighed a little, and someone said: "The warships of the Japanese army are unbearable, but they are fierce when they charge. We thought we encountered a group of donkeys, but we didn't expect them to become so obedient all of a sudden."

Someone next to him immediately said: "It's really a bit strange, it's hard to understand."

So Han Tong immediately sent a light boat to return home with the memorial.

The next day, a new official came to Ping'an capital. After meeting with Han Tong and other senior officials, they secretly discussed and discussed with each other, intending to recruit folk women to serve as prostitutes to reward the army. This surprised Han Tong and others. He was very cautious for a while, but he didn't dare to agree, and refused on the grounds of military discipline...

Zan Jurun thought of the fierce battle in Shijianbao, and also agreed with Han Tong's decision: "There is a blood feud between the two countries, beware of fraud."

But Lu Duoxun disagreed and said: "Why are a group of women afraid of it? This is what the government of Japan did. If they dare to cheat, they will be retaliated! The government has no reason to use such useless tricks."

After hearing this, all the military generals wished they could raise their hands in favor! Someone also murmured: "If so many of them were killed on the battlefield, that official would be able to do it!"

Han Tong coldly stopped everyone's discussion, and said: "It's a heavy responsibility, it's better to be cautious and steady. Now you are still in the enemy's country, if you want to have fun, you can get rewards for your merits when you return to Tokyo, and no one will restrain you."

"Obey!" "I have to order..."

...

In October, in the study room of Jinxiang Palace in Tokyo, Guo Shao opened the memorial written by Han Tong in the distant East Island. He watched it quietly, and immediately heaved a long sigh of relief, his face turned rosy from excitement.

"Zhaozhengshitang, the ministers of the cabinet, and several princes to discuss affairs in the Yizheng Hall." Guo Shaoxian gave an order.

Eunuch Cao Tai bowed to answer, and immediately left the study.

Guo Shao paced back and forth between several large pictures and the files on the imperial case, looking a little anxious.

In fact, not only Japan wants to end the war as soon as possible, why not Guo Shao? Because he has no money!

Negotiating a peace at the moment of victory like now, taking the opportunity to demand the greatest benefit, is what Guo Shao is very willing to see... He is not venting | anger for a certain emotion, and he can't just think about the East Island, because there are more things that need to be resolved urgently.

If the war drags on like this, Guo Shao will feel very fucked. On the one hand, there is no money, and on the other hand, the few people in the expeditionary army can't kill so many natives of the East Island, and they will lose control of the situation even if they get stuck in the quagmire.

Guo Shao walked in front of the map and pondered for a long time. Xindao: The silver was dug back from Shi Jianguo and minted into a large amount of currency. From Hexi to Liaodong, the whole game of chess has come alive!

As for Japan, it takes time and skill to deploy slowly. Being too aggressive can easily lead to backlash... Emperor Yongle of the later Ming Dynasty mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops to attack the capital of Jiaozhi, but he was too hasty and finally failed to stand still! Guo Shao believes that force is the foundation, but force alone may not be successful.

Guo Shao then came to the Yizheng Hall and passed on Han Tong's memorial to all the officials.

He very much agreed with the terms of the peace agreement written by Han Tong in the memorial, but wanted to make some changes to the peace agreement. Not only is it necessary to lease the Omori area where Iwami Silver Mountain is directly under the direct control, but also to control Namba Port... Guo Shao looked at the location described in front of him and guessed that it was probably the area of ​​Osaka Port, the gateway of Kyoto.

Xu Jun garrisoned at the southern port of Ping'an Jing and promised to protect the safety of Ping An Jing.

Shi Yanchao immediately looked puzzled, and finally did not speak. But the expression has been seen by Guo Shao.

Guo Shao knew what Shi Yanchao was wondering... Not long ago, Guo Shao was furious in public and wanted to raz Ping An Jing, but in a blink of an eye his attitude was completely opposite, and he wanted to protect Ping An Jing instead?

Guo Shao didn't bother to explain, anyway, most civil and military people should understand that benefits and strengths are the most important! He just casually mentioned calmly, "The Japanese monarch and his subjects surrendered and asked for peace, but rebellion (uprising) is unpredictable."

If we can reach a cooperation with the Ping'an court and rely on each other, we can suppress|suppress the rebellion in the Eastern Island country together, which will greatly reduce the military expenditure of the Daxu Imperial Court in the Eastern Island.

Deliberations were made in the political hall, and no one objected to the peace talks with Japan... The ministers are all waiting to dig gold and silver back as soon as possible! The Ministry of Rites then prepared the gold book, king's order and other things in detail, selected envoys to go to Ping'an capital, and formally canonized the ceremony of establishing the monarch and ministers.

Guo Shao also ordered the Privy Council to send people to reward Han Tong, Shi Jianbao Commander Zhang Jiankui and others, ordering them to return to the court to celebrate their achievements after deploying the East Island.
