Chapter 849: Duel
This fact is like a bolt from the blue, which is really unacceptable.∷
In order to innovate, heavy taxes were collected on farmers, so that countless people were killed in Japan. The price of such a huge price was equivalent to paying six rituals.
At this time, from the nobles to the common people, they all devoted themselves to this vigorous innovation. Each of them worked hard to get medicine according to Lang Son's prescription, which was equivalent to carrying a sedan chair.
After finally achieving some results, he recruited a large number of soldiers and established the Army Navy. He looked around and looked at himself, and was ready to do a big fight. Uh... This was equivalent to entering the bridal chamber.
As a result... I was impotence, or in other words, I hadn't become hard at all.
This is no longer a shame, it is simply powerless.
Of course, these are just the fate of the imperial state, but the more than 100,000 people on Chongming Island are all the elites of the imperial state and a new army created by the imperial state for many years. Whether it is the backbone of the army or the navy, they are all trained by the imperial state and are elites of the founding faction. It can even be said that these people are the so-called souls of Yamato.
But now, the problem they are now is not whether they can defeat the enemy, nor are they bullshit business anymore, but how to fill their stomachs.
From Chongming Island to the mainland, even the narrowest place is nearly ten miles away. It is obviously impossible to swim there. After all, not everyone is the first person to cross in later generations. There is no basketball for you to hug in this era, let alone 100,000 people crossing. Once the Ming army noticed that countless ships crossed here, throwing bullets and shooting muskets from the ship, it would be basically equivalent to a massacre.
Since you can't leave, of course you can't sit still and wait for death.
Shimazu Junichi's eyes were almost filled with tears. He clenched his fists hard and said in a choked voice: "We are powerless today, so we can only wait for help. Your Highness Yongken is in Songjiang. I think he will definitely have a solution. You guys, I want to go to visit the commander of the Langshan Army in person and issue a letter of war to him. If the Langshan Army is willing to fight to the decisive battle, it would be fine!"
The first half is very unrealistic, because there is a Ming army on the mainland, but the Ming navy. Even if there is one, it will cause trouble for these Japanese friends, and it is not enough to stuff the men of Lang San. The second half is quite romantic. Obviously, Junichi Shimazu thought that the war between more than 100,000 people was like a duel between two samurai.
Of course, now we can only be a living person and cannot pass.
If Junichi Shimazu was a fool, then other Japanese generals were afraid that they would not be much better. Many people nodded, thinking that perhaps those who understand that the bandits were not very smart, might have really come to the shore to attack. In this way, everyone would have a place to use their skills.
It is said that it is really embarrassing them to come up with such a solution. The Japanese have always been able to do things in small matters to the extreme, but whenever they encounter big things, they are a little confused.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Junichi Shimazu really set out. The man did not wear heavy armor and then boarded a sea boat with white sails rising from the port. Then, the Lang Son ship that came from the wind arrived and grabbed him in the middle. In the end, Junichi Shimazu directly changed the boat and requested to board the ship.
Suddenly, such a visitor came, and he even claimed to be the name of the Changzhou vassal state. He was the deputy general of the army. The staff of the Liangshan Navy did not dare to neglect him. He searched his whole body and after confirming that he did not carry a weapon, he escorted him to Changxing Island.
Now Changxing Island is really lively. Countless soldiers are resting here, and many ships are entering and leaving the port. When Jun Shimazu arrived, he felt sad when he saw this unrecognizable place. He endured his great sorrow and was finally taken to a temporary camp, and then he saw Hao Fenglou.
Hao Fenglou was not surprised to hear that Japanese people were visiting. There are always no shortage of heroes in this world. What is heroes? Those who know the times are heroes. I guess the Japanese are desperate and plan to surrender.
But... even if these Japanese people want to surrender, Hao Fenglou wants to agree to surrender in the spirit of humanitarianism, but does Hao Fenglou dare?
In fact, although Hao Fenglou was very brave, he really didn't dare to encounter this. This was not a problem of sympathy, nor was he having any deep hatred and great grudges with the Japanese because of later generations. It was really because he was guilty.
Think about it, Hao Fenglou had only 20,000 troops on his hands. If he agreed to surrender to the Japanese, he would inevitably have to log in to disarm his weapons. The 20,000 people paid 100,000 people and managed them. This... Not to mention 100,000 people, even 100,000 pigs, I am afraid it would be difficult.
What's more, this expeditionary army also ate Yin grain. Although it took Changxing Island and barely had sufficient supplies, what should the 100,000 Japanese pirates be used to support them? Only the Ming Dynasty court can support them, but is the Ming Dynasty court willing to give food?
Of course, Hao Fenglou had another way, that is, simply drive the 100,000 Japanese troops to be pawns, wanting to eat, and go to rob, but the problem arose again, driving the Japanese to rob the gentry and the people. Even if the two sides are hostile, this is enough to be considered a full of evil deeds.
Hao Fenglou is not a bad person, so he never accepts his choice.
All he had to do was to trap these Japanese people to death, neither allow them to escape nor surrender. These international friends came from thousands of miles to go against him. Do they still have to exert their internationalism spirit? Just like a poem in a later generation called "Traveling Most of China to Sleep You", although Hao Fenglou is not at a high level, it is difficult to understand the profound meaning of the poem, but since they have traveled across the ocean, they must be able to fulfill their families. This is Hao Fenglou's attitude, seek benevolence and benevolence, and don't leave when he comes.
However, Hao Fenglou decided to meet this person, and the Japanese always loved it.
But when he saw Junichi Shimazu, Hao Fenglou was disappointed. He did not have the bright dark armor, nor was he as murderous as in later film and television works. He looked like a Wu Dalang and his legs were not circles. However, compared with the tall Hao Fenglou, cough cough... don't humiliate international friends.
As soon as Shimazu Jun came in, he didn't even bow to him. He just looked at Hao Fenglou with his eyes. He had a deep impression of Hao Fenglou. This was not seen by the two of them, nor was it a mutual appreciation. In fact, Hao Fenglou was the founder of innovation. The Japanese sent a large number of people to study in Lang Son. These people not only wanted to learn Lang Son's strange and lewd tricks, but naturally they had to learn their spirit. So a monk saw Hao Fenglou. After returning, he immediately drew a picture of Hao Fenglou and drew out the appearance of Hao Fenglou. Then he traveled across the ocean to Japan. Many people immediately rushed to copy and passed on each other.
Junichi Shimazu naturally saw the portrait of Hao Fenglou, but he was still shocked by Hao Fenglou's youth.
He pondered for a moment, and then said proudly: "I heard that Lang Shan is a country of etiquette for a long time. Why did he suddenly attack me Chongming and hurt my navy?"
As soon as I asked this question, how could I feel like I was asking for a slight resignation?
Hao Fenglou suddenly realized that he was a little naive. The reason for his naivety was that he had preconceived ideas. He didn't expect Tang Guoqiang's teachings: "I have never seen such a shameless person."
Hao Fenglou sneered.
Junichi Shimazu was a little scared, but he still held his head and said, "I will come today to challenge you. My 100,000 Japanese troops are lined up in Chongming..."
"Let's wait!" Hao Fenglou interrupted him.
Junichi Shimazu was obviously a little annoyed by Hao Fenglou's rudeness, but he still interrupted his words.
Hao Fenglou looked at him strangely and said, "Are you here?"
"challenge!"
"Good thing, I always hear that you Japanese are all warriors. I know a little about the spirit of Bushido. I have been looking back for a long time and I have been looking back for a long time. What are you saying just now? Are you going to land and show your Japanese army? "
Junichi Shimazu proudly raised his head and said, "Of course, you are using conspiracies and tricks to win without force."
Hao Fenglou sighed and said, "What you said makes sense. Speaking of which, I am a very reasonable person. I think our Japanese friends are also very reasonable." Hao Fenglou paused and said, "Since you want to challenge, I will give you a chance."
It succeeded, but it actually succeeded like this.
Shimazu Junichi's breathing began to worsen, and he didn't expect everything to go so smoothly.
Hao Fenglou said, "But... I know that you Japanese love duels the most, right? The chance I give you is to fight between you and me. If I lose, I would rather die under your knife. If you lose, logically speaking, the two armies will fight and not kill them. But then again, if there is any mistake in the competition, it is understandable."
Junichi Shimazu was ecstatic.
He actually wants to duel.
Junichi Shimazu clearly saw that Hao Fenglou was definitely not a person who had practiced sword skills, because Hao Fenglou's fingers were slender and well maintained. Most of the time, he didn't even know how to hold the sword. Such a person actually had to duel with him.
Didn’t he know that he was a famous warrior in Cheung Chau?
"Okay!" Jun Shimazu quickly agreed, afraid that Hao Fenglou would regret it, and said again: "When will it start?"
"Just now, the big tent is inevitably small and difficult to play. Let's go to the school grounds, how about?" Hao Fenglou held his hands behind his back, revealing incredible confidence all over his body.
