Prime Minister Bizen

Chapter 603 I, Hideyoshi, Are Afraid of Daming?
On October 10, Uesugi Jingsheng led his 10 men passing through Kyoto, preparing to go to Kyushu to join the battle.

其实根据检地后的表高，上杉家所领越中（8）、信浓（3）、越后（45）、佐渡（2）、羽前（12）五国知行合计是70万石。

According to the requirements, 14000 people should be mobilized, and no less than 7000 troops should be dispatched.But maybe because the Uesugi family had just finished the Ou battle, Hideyoshi gave the Uesugi family preferential treatment, so Uesugi Jingsheng actually only took 5000 people away.

By the 13th, 12500 people from the Toyotomi family led by the Hide family had also arrived in Kyoto. So far, all the troops led by the main daimyo of the Eastern Kingdom have arrived in Kyoto.

Of course, not mentioning other daimyos does not mean that other daimyos are not waiting for people to come.

For example, Mikawa Okazaki Clan Tsutsui Joji brought 10 people from his headquarters to Kyoto as early as October 3, but for such a small daimyo, Hideyoshi did not need to stay long, and after meeting him once, he was allowed to continue going south.

The same goes for the previously mentioned Sakuma Yoshimasa, and Hori Hidemasa, who was newly appointed as the chief security house. They were all entertained by Hideyoshi and Hideji after being met by Hideyoshi, and then they were released to Kyushu. array.

When Uesugi Kagekatsu arrived in Kyoto, Hideyoshi held a banquet at Juraku, specially Maeda Toshiie, Tokugawa Ieyasu and Uesugi Kagekatsu, Hideyo, Hideji, Hidekatsu and Hideho, who were important members of the Toyotomi family, were all present.

Hidecho Toyotomi did not participate in the banquet due to his poor health, but this did not reduce his importance in Toyotomi's family.

In fact, the physical condition of Hidetomi Toyotomi has always been the focus of the world's famous names.

Long before the banquet started, people like Maeda, Uesugi, and Tokugawa had already visited Toyotomi Hidecho in private. Seeing Hidecho's current appearance, I don't know what the above three daimyo would think.

This was supposed to be a very ordinary banquet, but for some reason, Hideyoshi insisted on making this banquet the same as the swearing-in meeting, and actually recalled the daimyos such as Sakuma and Tsutsui who had already arrived in Harima to Kyoto.

What surprised Xiujia even more was that Yoshihiro Shimadzu, the daimyo from Kyushu, also attended tonight's banquet, and his complexion seemed to be very ugly.

In addition, Kyushu daimyos such as Hachisuka Isei, Kuroda Nagamasa, and Kato Kiyomasa, and Western daimyos such as Fukushima Masanori were all present.

The first half of the banquet was nothing special, Hideyoshi praised the achievements of the daimyos in various fields, Hideyoshi drank very well, and personally toasted several daimyos with a glass of wine.

After drinking for three rounds, the big names let go, singing to each other everywhere, and the scene was a peaceful scene.

Xiujia deliberately brought his brother-in-law Hashiba Hidetoshi with him, deliberately not letting him drink.

In history, there is only a record of him drinking with Hideyoshi and entertaining daimyos when he was ten years old. At that time, people described him as a passionate lord, but Hideyoshi knew that the child's organs were not fully developed, and premature drinking would affect the development of the liver.

Therefore, since Hideyoshi confirmed the marriage between Hazel and Hidetoshi Hashiba, he was no longer allowed to take the initiative to drink, even if someone came to toast, Hideyoshi would do it on his behalf.

Under the influence of Hideka, Hideji, Hideji, Hidekatsu and other big names of Toyotomi clan, many people have ignored the existence of the Hashiba clan who owns 10 stone collars of Tamba Kameyama Castle.

For Hideyoshi, since Tsurumatsu came into the world, his attention to these adopted sons has decreased a lot. It was only after seeing Hashiba Hidetoshi at this banquet that he remembered that he had such an adopted son.

Of course there is exaggeration in this, but Hideyoshi's attitude towards these adopted sons has indeed changed a lot with Tsurumong's birth.

The reason why Xiujia said that was because the banquet had just started, when Hideyoshi saw Xiujun, he showed a suddenly realized expression, and gave him the surname of Toyotomi's courtier in front of everyone.

Xiujia said that he suddenly realized that he was actually giving Hideyoshi face, and he clearly forgot about him, and finally remembered when he saw him, and hurriedly gave him a surname and entered it in the genealogy.

Hideyoshi was included in Toyotomi's genealogy, Xiujia was naturally very happy, but Xiujia looked at Hideyoshi who was sitting in the chief seat, and couldn't help complaining in his heart, "Damn monkey, did you forget something!"

To be honest, since Xiu's time travel, although the general trend of history has largely remained the same, many details have changed.

For example, Ogasawara Hidetada changed from the historically affiliated 10 koku daimyo of Tokugawa to the independent Ouyu 32 koku daimyo.

Moreover, Hideaki Kobayakawa in history married Komanhime, the adopted daughter of Mori Terumoto, who is also the daughter of Shishido Motohide, who is regarded as Mori Terumoto's cousin.

In this life, the Xiu family made their younger sister enter into a marriage contract with Xiu Jun in advance, and the Xiu family was a little afraid, what if Xiu Jun was not accepted by the Mao Li family?
After all, as powerful as the Maeda Toshi family, when adopting his own son to Xiaofan's Iwagi family, he had to marry a daughter of the Iwagi family as his son-in-law and adopted son.

In other words, Xiuzhen has a special status. He inherited the Ogasawara family under the joint operation of Hideyoshi, Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu. At that time, the Ogasawara family did not have a family. Ogasawara Sadamaka had to accept the condition that Ogasawara Hidetada was the governor of the family. Only then can the Ogasawara family recover their country.

But now neither Mori nor Kobayakawa's family is a small family, and the question of whether Xiujun can become an heir to the two families has always been hanging in Xiujia's mind.

"Perhaps seeing Takakage Kobayakawa in Nagoya, Hideyoshi will remember to use such an adopted son as himself." Seeing that Hideyoshi did not respond next, Hideyoshi could only comfort himself in this way.

And to be honest, although Hidetoshi is not as powerful as inheriting the Kobayakawa family in history, he still has the name of 10 koku in Tanba. Nice help.

Xiujia originally thought that the banquet was going to be like this, but he never expected that when the banquet was about to end, Hideyoshi raised his hand and clapped twice to signal everyone to quiet down.

Everyone was a little confused by Hideyoshi's operation, but then they saw Asano Nagamasa leading a scarred prisoner up into the hall.

This person is dressed in a Japanese uniform, but the bun on his head looks like a Ming style, and the sideburns on his ears have already turned gray, but judging from his appearance, he is an elegant old man.

Two samurai dragged the exhausted prisoner to the hall, which was an unusual event at an ordinary banquet, not to mention that Hideyoshi signaled this person to be brought up, and it was Asano Nagamasa who led the prisoner to the hall.

The originally noisy banquet hall fell silent in an instant. The big names were deeply afraid that this was some special political event, and no one dared to speak out.

I only heard Asano Nagamasa report to Hideyoshi: "His Royal Highness Guanbai, the prisoner Xu Yi will bring you later"

Hideyoshi looked at Nagamasa Asano and nodded, and Nagamasa Asano sat back in his seat, and everyone's eyes began to move back and forth on the three of them.

After hearing that the prisoner brought up was Xu Yi, Xiujia's eyelids jumped involuntarily.

As a Chinese who is familiar with the history of the Warring States Period in Japan, I naturally have a fresh memory of this Chinese who was featured in the CCTV documentary.

As mentioned above, when Hideyoshi was about to launch a war against Korea, many kinds of flowers went forward to bring the information back to China. The source of information for the Ming court was actually more than Xu Yihou.

And in fact, it was too late when Xu Yi later brought back the information. The Ming court had indeed learned the news of Japan's war against North Korea from North Korea.

However, although the information was sent late, a warrior who is loyal to the country and the nation like Xu Yihou is still worth remembering.

Many people remembered Xu Yihou because of CCTV's recorder, but CCTV's description of why Xu Yihou was arrested and why she was released was ambiguous, and there were even traces of artificial modification.

The reason is very simple, because at that moment, there were people like Empress Xu Yi who were loyal to the nation, and there were also traitors who had already devoted themselves to Japan, and it was his Chinese neighbor who reported Empress Xu Yi!

After knowing Xu Yihou's actions, he stole the intelligence letter with Xu Yihou's abbreviation, ran to Osaka and handed it to Asano Nagamasa, and Hideyoshi ordered Shimadzu Yoshihisa to arrest Xu Yihou Sona Bring it to justice.

And what he did was nothing more than a warrior's identity, 200 shi Zhixing and a reward of 100 taels of gold, and he betrayed his nation for a little foreign thing.

It is impossible for a platform as big as CCTV not to know this period of history, but when filming a foreignist documentary about the Wanli Korean War, it deliberately avoided this incident, essentially because it is a patriotic educational film, Bad guys and traitors cannot appear.

In addition, the statement that Xu Yi later came forward to negotiate peace for Tokugawa Ieyasu came from the Edo shogunate, and this record may have a slight possibility of giving money to Tokugawa Ieyasu.

After all, this record says that Hideyoshi once wanted to cook Xu Yihou in a pot, but later wrote Ishikawa Goemon and said that Hideyoshi created a new penalty. These two are actually contradictory. How can Hideyoshi Who do you want to use the cooking punishment on first?

And if you think about it, who is Empress Xu Yi?It's nothing more than an ordinary Ming doctor who travels in Japan. How can Ieyasu Tokugawa be alarmed, and Ieyasu Tokugawa will come forward to talk to this person in person?

Don't you think this historical record is outrageous?

Tokugawa Ieyasu in history was the second most powerful person in the world after Hideyoshi, but that doesn't mean he was a kind-hearted guy.

On the contrary, if you check the other samurai saved by him, you can find that he is a person who has nothing to gain, how could he offend Hideyoshi's Nilin for a little wise doctor?
At the same time, Jiang Hang, an official sent by North Korea to Japan, recorded in the "Watching Sheep Records" that Hideyoshi was very tolerant towards Empress Xu Yi.

Hideyoshi liked Jiang Hang very much, and even allowed him to come and go to Fushimi at will, so the author believes that the records in "Kan Yang Lu" are more authentic.

After pointing to Xu Yi, Hideyoshi said to the crowd, "This man is a man of the Ming Dynasty. He lived under the Shimadzu clan in Kyushu and lived on the Shimadzu family's salary. country.

Simply investigate and report for the surrounding people, so as not to lose the information of the family. I have already given that person the status of a warrior and a reward of 100 taels of gold.

Now there is only Xu Yi left without disposal, why don't you all discuss how to deal with it. "

Xiujia had heard about Xu Yi's arrest from Asano Nagamasa a few days earlier, but he never took any action to save her.

One reason is that Hideka has always believed that Ieyasu Tokugawa would save people after reading the records in the "official history". What about a person who harms the interests of the court?

Seeing that Hideyoshi brought Queen Xu Yi up now, the Hideo family couldn't help feeling like a butterfly effect had happened.

"Didn't Tokugawa Ieyasu ask Hideyoshi for forgiveness because of his own reasons?" Hideka thought in his mind.

Hideyoshi asked everyone for their opinions on how to deal with Xu Yihou, but in fact no one would speak for Xu Yihou, and they all expressed their request to Hideyoshi to kill Xu Yihou. Among them, Kato Kiyomasa and Fukushima Masanori were the most vicious.

However, Hideyoshi shook his head and said to the left and right, "He is from Daming, and it is reasonable to tell Japan about the affairs of Daming. And it is not my heart to surprise others. It is not impossible to make Daming Yu follow the plan. Besides, since ancient times, the emperor It is not harmful to make the drafting ignorant, so that the great name knows that I am humble."

From [Make Daming Yu to make the picture, it is not impossible. ] From this sentence, it can be seen that Hideyoshi is very arrogant, and he actually thinks that it doesn't matter if he reveals his ambition to the Ming country, and he can defeat Ming in the war openly.

After making a statement to Empress Xu Yi, Hideyoshi angrily reprimanded the Chinese who reported him, "You are also a man of the Ming Dynasty and dare to sue a famous man, you are a murderer. I don't want to see you again, get out after receiving the reward. "

The samurai status, 200 Zhixing and 100 taels of gold offered earlier are Hideyoshi’s rewards for the traitor, but Hideyoshi is even more disgusted with the Chinese who betrayed his own nation, so he only gave him rewards. Hideyoshi would never give it.

All the above dialogues are all from Jiang Han's "Looking at Sheep", which I personally think is much more real than the history of Tokugawa Ieyasu's modification in the Edo period.

The reason why it is rarely adopted is because it is a personal biography of a North Korean official, and secondly because it is difficult for people in later generations to believe that Toyotomi Hideyoshi described by him is a man of temperament.

In the eyes of most people, including but not limited to the Edo Shogunate and Chinese history, Toyotomi Hideyoshi has always existed as a villain.

People are more willing to believe in good guys and bad guys with clear personalities, and people are always willing to believe that bad guys and traitors work hand in hand, but they don't want to believe that a bad guy would spurn a traitor who exposed spies to him.

Coupled with the fact that everyone subconsciously believes that there is a huge power gap between Ming and Japan, Hideyoshi must adopt a sneak attack strategy in the war against Korea and Ming, and those who leak secrets will definitely be severely punished.

In fact, there is such a view as well as the impression created by Japan's repeated surprise attacks on China during World War II.

Let me ask, if it hadn't been for the discovery of "Kan Yang Lu" by Korean historians in modern times, who would be willing to believe that a bloodthirsty Hideyoshi in history would actually praise and pardon a man who stole for his own nation? Someone who owns a secret?
You must know that he was the guy who brutally treated Ishikawa Goemon with cooking torture!
Who would want to believe that Hideyoshi never thought about attacking Da Ming from the very beginning, why is he so arrogant?!
But in fact, many people have overlooked that Hideyoshi wrote a letter of credence to North Korea, and asked North Korea to bring the letter of credence to Daming! !

Hideyoshi clearly stated his intention to attack Daming in the national book, and now looking back at this period of history, you will find the description of Hideyoshi in "Kan Yang Lu", the kind of self-awareness that is not afraid of going to Ming Big is completely consistent.
