Chapter 831: There must be a battle

Zhu Gaosui has always been in contact with the matter about Japan.

In fact, the Japanese also bet on both sides, and while running to Lang Son, hoping to make some Autumn Wind, they had no choice but to ignore you at all, so they ran back in shame.

At first, the court didn't care much about the Japanese, until something happened to the Mu family, Zhu Gaosui became nervous, which made the Japanese take advantage of the loopholes.

The same is true for the Japanese. They claimed that they had a million soldiers. As long as the Ming Dynasty was willing to let the Japanese goods run unimpeded in the Ming Dynasty, they could bring a hundred thousand soldiers to ashore to help.

This condition is actually quite tempting. The Japanese have already figured out the essence of commerce. For them, the land is actually empty at the moment. The most important thing is the market. With the market, the Japanese workshops can be expanded, and more and more Japanese craftsmen will participate in industrial production. Sooner or later, the Ming Dynasty will become the industrial dumping place for the Japanese. After the dumping, the Japanese will become stronger and stronger. The Ming Dynasty relies on them more and more. After earning a large amount of silver, the Japanese can raise more military horses and build more ships. After the workshop makes a lot of profits, it can use a considerable portion to upgrade the scale of the workshop, improve the craftsmanship, and make their firearms sharper.

This is actually Lang Son's way. Lang Son has taken 100 steps, and the Japanese have only taken twenty steps. However, if the Ming Dynasty was really willing to open up comprehensive trade with the Japanese, on the one hand, it vigorously encouraged industry and commerce, but on the other hand, it was passively accepted and suppressed industry and commerce, then in ten years, the Japanese's national strength would only increase by more than ten times. By then, not to mention North Korea or Liaodong, the entire southeast coast would have become the fish of the Japanese.

For Zhu Gaosui, the so-called trade did not cause him to lose any profit at the moment. He has always heard of the bravery of the Japanese. When Taizu was there, Japanese pirates pirates plagued the southeast. Those were some Japanese ronin, and there was no entry or departure, so they had to come here to rob. Only these people would be enough to make the local garrisons frustrated. If the Japanese real army was willing to assist in the war, it would be a good thing for the court.

In fact, if it weren't for the Battle of Guangzhou and the Mu family's surrender, Zhu Gaosui wouldn't have reached this point today. Now, any life-saving straw is attractive enough to him.

The two sides hit it off, and the Japanese received a secret order from the Ming Dynasty and had already returned. The next thing was that the Japanese fulfilled the agreement.

Zhu Gaosui was unwilling to say this for the time being, but now Xu Jingming suddenly asked, which made him feel a little angry.

"How did you know these things?"

Xu Jingming was a bachelor. He said, "I am the minister of the loyal country, and I am determined to never appear in brothels and restaurants, and I stayed in my door every day. I thought about this strategy for breaking the thief for our court. For this reason, I am still inquiring about it, and finally I learned some. Your Majesty, although these things are secret, I am... cough cough... it is easy to find out. But Your Majesty..." Xu Jingming was about to cry again, with tears in his eyes, and he was full of resentment: "Your Majesty says that I am a loyal minister every day, but since I am a loyal minister, why should I hide such a thing? I am thinking, the ambition of the Japanese wolfish man, this time, our Ming Dynasty may not be willing to be sincere. I am afraid of attracting the wolf into the house."

Zhu Gaosui nodded. Although Xu Jingming was confused, there was something that hit his mind. In Zhu Gaosui's opinion, the surname Hao was not something. So what good thing can the Japanese be?

"This time they arrived in our Ming Dynasty. I thought that they must not let them land. If they took advantage of the desperate efforts of the court and the bandit army to attack suddenly, wouldn't the country be destroyed by the bandit army, but instead the Japanese?"

In fact, the cabinet has also discussed this point, and no matter what, this is what everyone is worried about.

The Japanese want to engage in trade, which is not a problem, but the Japanese bringing troops to the scene, which makes people feel worried. If these guys stabbed them in the back, it would be terrible.

Although Zhu Gaosui hated Xu Jingming, Xu Jingming suddenly opened his mind, which made Zhu Gaosui both suspicious and agree with it. But now he didn't say anything, wanting to see what Xu Jingming wanted to say.

Xu Jingming said with deep pain: "So, I think about it and still feel that I must be guarded against the Japanese. They come from the sea. Since they are from the sea, they must not be allowed to land. I think they will be stationed on the outer island to protect the gateway along the southeast coast for our Ming Dynasty. In addition, the court should also allocate a new army. The number of people does not need to be too many, and it will be tens of thousands. On the surface, they will garrison the southeast with them. On the other hand, they can also monitor them. If they have any misconduct, they can contact the inland immediately, and on the other hand, they can immediately suppress them so that these Japanese people cannot survive into the mainland. Your Majesty, you must not have the intention to harm others, and you must be careful. I think this matter is of great importance, so please give your Majesty a clear guide."

Suddenly, Xu Jingming became a normal person. A normal Xu Jingming was terrible. This guy was a bit not very simple.

Zhu Gaosui's eyes became cold. He stared at Xu Jingming and said slowly: "What Xu Qing said is quite reasonable. Oh, how did you think of it?"

Xu Jingming was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhu Gaosui and started to whimper.

Zhu Gaosui shouted coldly: "Is it because someone is behind your back that who is this person?"

Xu Jingming's face changed and he denied: "No, I haven't, I just want to share my worries."

"Is it Qiu Fu, or Zhang Fu, or Zhu Yong?"

Xu Jingming seemed like a deflated ball, but Zhu Gaosui became calm instead.

This guy is a pussy guy, no one else knows, but Zhu Gaosui knows that this scum suddenly became a loyal minister with both civil and military affairs, and he inevitably began to think about whether he wanted to make great contributions. Most of the time he was looking for a way around, and the Xu family had many disciples and old officials in the army. Naturally, someone secretly mentioned him.

If so, then everything will be explained.

"So... you want to lead troops to station on the southeast line, right?" Zhu Gaosui's eyes were bright and he stared at Xu Jingming.

Xu Jingming smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty refuses to go to Jiangxi. I think that if I stay in the capital, I will really lose the wisdom of my ancestors. I am sorry for Your Majesty's kindness of knowing you, so I have to find some fun..." He wanted to say it was fun, but he tightened his tone and continued, "Do it seriously."

Zhu Gaosui's face relaxed a little.

It doesn't matter if this guy wants to go to Songjiang and the southeast. After all, the real main battlefield is in Jiangxi, and as Xu Jingming said just now, the Japanese side is indeed uneasy. As for Xu Jingming, it seems that he can't stay in the capital anymore. Letting this guy continue to stay in the capital will make him go crazy. After thinking about it, it is a good thing to let him leave the capital.

Zhu Gaosui said slowly: "Yes, you are a minister of the country. I still expect you to be the mainstay of this. Now that you volunteered, how can I reject you again and again? I will give you a heavy burden this time."

Xu Jingming was immediately excited. Without saying a word, he fell to the ground and said, "I am willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty, and I will never refuse."

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

In the Edo Port in Japan, the Japanese people who had been waiting for it had received an urgent report from the Clippers. The Japanese people suddenly celebrated that the emperor had summoned Prince Nagaki. Immediately, a emperor's order was passed, and the Japanese State Administration of State Administration also issued a memorial on the alliance tomorrow. The emperor's grace was approved, and countless troops were gathered outside the Edo Port.

Over the years, Japan has been following Lang Son and has become increasingly effective. They have used various counterfeits and a large amount of silver in China to create countless workshops. However, the production level of the workshop is low-end. Although it can be mixed with fish, it is far inferior to Lang Son's goods. And in the long run, Lang Son will definitely suppress Japan's goods. In view of such hidden worries, Prince Yongjian, the founding faction of Japan, has already begun to conspire with many officials and ministers, determined to use extraordinary means to avoid the crisis that will be caused. Japan must open up new markets like Lang Son to the West, and monopolize them, and at the same time use force when necessary to protect Japan's right to founding the country.

In fact, this foreseeable crisis was related to the previous founding of the Japanese. At first, the Japanese were mostly poor and had no funds to develop. In order to establish workshops, a lot of funds came from the Japanese government, that is, they used government taxes to build workshops. However, there was no market for the things made by these workshops. How to solve them? The Japanese came up with a solution. Their iron workshops, firearm workshops, textile workshops, and docks were all placed by the Japanese official army, and they used the Japanese taxes to accumulate the army. Then the army ordered a large amount of military supplies, and the workshops were operated. This was why the straw troupe was built.

However, the most direct crux of this approach is that they have raised so many military horses and finally had many workshops, but the demand in the civilian market is not very large, and the Japanese court is now in debt. If they do not find a new civilian market to supplement at this time, or if these increasingly large military horses are kept on this island of Japan forever, sooner or later, the entire Japan will collapse.

Therefore, a few months ago, Prince Yongjian, the power leader in Japan, had put forward a slogan, saying: "In three years, there will be a war in Japan and the imperial kingdom will prosper and abolish it, and this will be a blow!"
