Martial Arts: Start with 100,000 Xiliang Cavalry

Chapter 208 A new daimyo?

Su Yuan's character is to ask questions.

Why can Yamata no Orochi come back to life in the snake cave?He had to figure this out.

The Shenqianle clan may not care, they just want to seal it, but Su Yuan does.

Qi Jiguang was very efficient, and quickly selected 3000 people, took tools, and went to the underground where the snake cave was with Su Yuan.

When they reached the top of the destination, Su Yuan simply asked them to start digging from the ground because he was worried about the risk of collapse.

As a result, the amount of work has increased a lot, but the safety factor has been greatly improved.After all, living in the dark underground, if there is a landslide accident, not one or two will die.

3000 people worked hard, sweating profusely.

They didn't dare to disobey the order, and the soldiers of the Bei'an Army with sharp knives stood aside. If they dared to resist in the slightest, they would die on the spot.

But these people have basically resigned to their fate.

They were all in the Daming Palace Square at that time, and they all witnessed with their own eyes how the Bei'an Army severely damaged Orochi, and how powerful the soldiers of the Bei'an Army were.

Being strong is a human instinct, especially in the Eastern Japan, a place where the weak prey on the strong. People only respect and obey the strong.

On the contrary, if you talk nicely to them and greet them with a smile, they will think you are weak and bully, and will not take you seriously at all.

For this reason, Su Yuan doesn't care what these people think, it's only natural to let them work.Don't talk about work, it's not surprising that they are all pulled and chopped, after all, they are still enemies.

3000 people dug for two or three hours to dig through the soil between the ground and the snake hole.Without a break, continue to dig around the snake hole.

The snake cave originally revealed a very strange and cold atmosphere.But now exposed to the sun, that breath seemed insignificant.

And with thousands of people present, even the most timid people can be courageous at this moment.

3000 people took turns digging around the snake hole. Su Yuan didn't see any explosion marks on the edge of the snake hole, which meant that the hole was indeed deep enough, and the C4 that Tanya dropped earlier didn't blow up to it.

The matter is divided into two parts, Su Yuan is directing the digging of the tunnel, and Qi Jiguang is mainly responsible for the full-scale occupation of Naijing on the other side.

Previously, the Bei'an Army only broke into the Daming Palace and took control of that place.

Now Qi Jiguang wiped out some enemies who were still stubbornly resisting in other places, and controlled all the joints and key points, guarded by soldiers of the Bei'an Army.

This is not difficult. Naikyong's elite shogunate soldiers are basically concentrated in the Daimyo Palace.The rest and the Bei'an Army don't have any combat capital, and they will be broken at the first touch.

After controlling the main points, Qi Jiguang began to close the door and beat the dog again.

He led tens of thousands of elite soldiers to attack everywhere, to sweep up the major shogunate in Nai Jing, and captured all the shogunate generals.If there are resisters, they will be killed directly on the spot.

For a moment, the neat footsteps of the Bei'an Army could be heard throughout Naijing.

The people who fled because of the big snake before were always in the minority.Most of them are hiding at home at the moment, shivering, hoping that this catastrophe will pass quickly.

Many people were even more afraid that the Bei'an army would rush into their homes to arrest people and slaughter them. For this reason, many people hid in the cellar and prayed silently.

Qi Jiguang completely ignored them.

The battle plan he executed was to wipe out all unstable factors in Naijing as quickly as possible.That is to say, anyone with private soldiers must be arrested.

Obviously the people have nothing to do with it.

After a few hours, it got dark.

Near the snake cave, 3000 people took turns to dig tens of meters deep, and the originally narrow hole was dug bigger and bigger.

But looking in through the hole, I still can't see the bottom, only a faint light, I don't know what it is.

"Stop digging at night, and continue at dawn tomorrow." Su Yuan ordered.

The visibility conditions at night are too poor, and these 3000 people are really exhausted, and the efficiency of digging is too low.

He left some soldiers to guard, and his group returned to the Daming Palace.

Shenqianle Lingmeng came back with him, with a very complicated expression along the way.

Su Yuan didn't care about it, he just asked people to prepare food after he came back, in order to avoid the servants in the Daming Palace making troubles, he only asked Bei'an Army soldiers to prepare.

Dongbo has abundant aquatic products, and most of them eat seafood, but Su Yuan is not used to eating it. In addition, he is practicing inner strength more and more, and he is less and less hungry, so he only ate a few clams for symbolic purposes.

The others were happy, especially the many people from the Jianghu. Although some people were killed or killed by the big snake, the overall victory was won.

This is not as simple as defeating the monsters, the most important thing is to defeat the Eastern Japanese and occupy its capital.

Who in the ancients didn't have a dream of making contributions?For now, that's achievable.

At the banquet, only Shen Qianle and Lingmeng were preoccupied, and Su Yuan saw it. After dinner, he brought plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum and the translator to talk with her in a quiet room in the Daming Palace.

After sitting down on the tatami, Su Yuan asked, "Are you still thinking about sealing Yamata no Orochi?"

Shenqianle Lingmeng nodded slightly, but shook her head again.

She said: "Since Prince Su decided to dig the snake hole, I can only obey. If I can kill Yamata no Orochi completely, it will be a great thing. If it doesn't work, it won't be too late for me to seal it."

"..."

Shenqianle Lingmeng plucked up her courage and looked into Su Yuan's eyes: "Prince Su, you... locked up your name, right?"

It turned out to be for this matter.

Su Yuan understood, and admitted, "Not bad."

Whether it's the big name or the many officials of the Eastern Japanese government, Qi Jiguang arrested them all and put them in prison.

This is Su Yuan's instruction.

"Why, do you think it's wrong?"

"Big name..."

"Shen Qianle, don't you know that the daimyo named Hojo Shinobu is also from the shogunate family, the Hojo shogunate. I, a foreigner, know it, don't you know?"

Shenqianle Lingmeng was silent, she obviously knew it.

Su Yuan said in a deep voice: "In my eyes, there is no difference between them. The only difference between Hojo Shingen and Shanggong Shingen is that the former has become weaker, while the latter has become stronger. If Shanggong Shingen becomes famous, there will definitely be others in the future." A stronger shogun overthrew him."

This is basically the case in ancient dynasties, and the big difference is not bad. The people and things that Su Yuan encountered in Dazhou would also be encountered in Dongwo.

The only difference is that some people in Eastern Japan are more radical and eager to plunder.This is also a common feature of sea power countries.

In essence, it's all the same.

"If you want to say, let that Hojo Shin become a daimyo, that's impossible."

"Then, Lord Su, what are you going to do?"

"First of all, Dongwa has become a vassal state of Bei'an. The culture can be preserved, but it will no longer have independent military power. Bei'an soldiers will be stationed here. Secondly, all war criminals headed by Shang Gong Shingen will be publicly tried and executed. .”

Su Yuan said coldly: "Let the people of Eastern Japan see with their own eyes what happened to these people, so that they should have a longer memory, and they will not and dare not support these scum."

Shenqianle Lingmeng was silent.

Although she doesn't know too many major national affairs, she also understands what it means to be a vassal state.

And the public trial is to completely declare the complete victory of the Bei'an army, which is a murder and must be punished.

Coming across the sea from thousands of miles away, arresting you and judging you on your own territory, isn't killing someone or something.

From a personal point of view, Shenqianle Reimu is happy.

She also has seven emotions and six desires, so many people were killed by the descendants of Orochi and the shogunate warriors, how could she not want to take revenge?
But out of the feelings of her family and country, she realized sadly that in this way, the Eastern Japanese were destined to be completely controlled by Su Yuan from now on.

She has mixed feelings in her heart, but she also understands that whether she supports or opposes, it will not have any influence on Su Yuan's decision-making.

Even if they didn't get along for too long, she had already seen that Su Yuan seemed easy-going, but in fact he had a very stubborn and resolute character.Once he decides something, it is difficult to change it.

After Su Yuan finished speaking, he looked at her for a while.

"Shen Qianle, you are a good girl. You are willing to consider others, and you are willing to sacrifice your own life for the sake of the public. Your character is very noble."

Su Yuan's inexplicable praise made Shenqianle Lingmeng a little baffled.

If it was an ordinary man, she might feel embarrassed.But when Su Yuan said this, she felt that these words seemed to be setting the stage for something.

Sure enough, after Su Yuan laid the groundwork, he immediately stated his purpose:

"Do you want to be Dongwa's new daimyo?"

……

Koizumi's family spent the whole night in fear.

They are a family of four, ordinary people in Naijing, living a life of farming and farming.Ever since the news of the Bei'an army's call spread, the shogunate sent people once to ask for donations to supply military supplies.

Koizumi's family was also willing to support the shogunate against the invaders, but what those samurai asked for was not just a little bit, but almost all of his family's savings.

The head of the family, Koizumi Erlang, wanted to stop him, so he was beaten severely, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.

The family did not dare to complain, and could only watch helplessly as the warriors left with the family's savings.

Turning around, the next day, there was a big snake making trouble, and the Bei'an army even attacked, and the whole Naijing was in chaos.

In the afternoon, a large number of soldiers could be heard running on the street. A few members of Koizumi's family peeked out through the window, and only saw the solemn Bei'an army, but they didn't even see a shogunate samurai or ashigaru.

After an afternoon, the sound outside gradually subsided and subsided in the evening.

Koizumi's family thought that the Bei'an army would clean up the shogunate during the day and start torturing the people at night.Among other things, where do so many Bei'an soldiers sleep?

Koizumi Erlang had already made a plan, if Bei'an Army soldiers rushed into his home to sleep, he would definitely give up the bed without saying a word.Life-saving is more important than anything else.

As a result, their whole family didn't sleep all night, and the Bei'an soldiers didn't come. Not only his house, but the whole street seemed to be quiet.

By now, the next morning, shouts have been heard in the street:

"The military status is lifted, and the people are free to go out for activities!"

At first, the common people didn't believe it, until after shouting more than ten times, finally some people started to go out.

Koizumi Erlang also opened the door and found that many people had come out.It's as if nothing happened, except...

"Father, look! Are those Bei'an soldiers..." Daughter Koizumi Junko pointed to the Bei'an soldiers who were patrolling at the end of the street.

"Shh! Be quiet!"

The mother immediately covered her daughter's mouth, for fear of attracting the attention of the soldiers.

True, nothing seemed to have happened, except for the new Northern Patrolmen that appeared on every street.

Their existence declares that the capital city of Eastern Japan, Naikyo, has completely fallen.

"Erlang, what do you think we should do now..." the wife said worriedly.

Koizumi Erlang sighed helplessly: "What can I do? I can only hope that the Bei'an Army is not... or don't talk about it, it's too dangerous to talk about it now!"

"Ah."

Koizumi's house is the epitome of the people in the whole city of Naijing. Now the people are all trembling and cautious, trying not to provoke Bei'an soldiers.

As if to appease them, the Beian Army posted notices on the streets and alleys shortly after the sun rose.

Koizumi Erlang also followed the crowd to watch. He was an illiterate farmer, so he could only listen to the literate words in front of him:

"Notify the people of Naijing that all labor activities can resume from now on. Seven days later, there will be a public trial of war criminals... Some of the property confiscated from the homes of the shogun and other corrupt elements will be distributed to the people... Please cooperate with the population statistics ..."

The announcement contained a lot of content, and the more people listened to it, the more excited they became.

Because the content in the notice seems to be a good thing!
Distributing property, cultivating land, building houses... What is it if this is not a good thing?
"Is what is written on it true or false? Bei'an Army is so good?"

"who knows……"

"It should be true! Otherwise, why bother?"

"That's right. Now that the Bei'an Army is occupying Naijing, if they want to rob common people like us, there's really no need to put up such a notice."

"If everything written on it can become true...it seems that the Bei'an Army is much better than the Shogunate..."

"That's right……"

The common people were discussing in whispers, and suddenly a young man yelled: "You bastards! I bought you for a little profit! Our country will be taken away!!!"

The young man was very annoyed, holding a wooden stick in his hand, he raised it and waved it in the air, saying, "Whoever has the guts, come with me! Go resist the Bei'an Army!!"

"..."

Everyone was silent for a while, some sneered, and some shook their heads again and again.

In one day, the shogunate army was completely defeated. What's the use of their resistance?Besides, at present, the Bei'an Army has not dealt with ordinary people like them, so what are they resisting?
A middle-aged man couldn't help but said: "Not to mention anything else, at least the Bei'an Army didn't go to my house to grab money. The day before yesterday, several shogunate samurai came to my house to rob copper coins and food!"

His words immediately resonated with everyone, and many people nodded in agreement.

The young man was extremely annoyed: "What are you talking about, you traitor!" He swung his stick at the middle-aged man, who dodged quickly, and the crowd suddenly became a riot.

Seeing this, the Bei'an soldiers who were patrolling the streets came here immediately, and the Dongwa translator who accompanied the team immediately shouted: "What are you doing! Do you know that the Bei'an army does not allow street disturbances!"

The young man who was held down by the crowd cursed: "You Bei'an running dog! Doing things for the enemy, I will kill you, kill all Bei'an people!!!"

The Dongwa translator's face was extremely ugly when he heard the words, and he said to the captain of the Bei'an patrol team: "Captain, this guy said he wanted to kill the Bei'an soldiers!"

The patrol captain waved his hand blankly: "Take it away."

Two soldiers rushed over immediately, tied up the young man and took him away.

The Dongwa translator showed a look of color on his face, and smiled at the young man: "Boy, are you still swearing?" After speaking, he said viciously to the other people, "And you all, be honest!"
