Ming Dynasty: The poisonous imperial teacher, Zhu Yuanzhang advised me to be kind

Chapter 169: Don’t eat the big piece of fat meat right in front of your mouth?

"Well done." Hu Weiyong nodded after hearing Chen Ning's words.

As for Lan Yu, it is better for him to listen to Hu Weiyong. If he doesn't listen to him, he should be eliminated.

However, Hu Weiyong probably thought that Lan Yu was a person who would listen to him, otherwise Hu Weiyong would not have arranged for someone to find him.

Thinking of this, Hu Weiyong's face was full of anticipation. He was really curious about how Zhu Yuanzhang and Chu Nan would react when they saw him rebel and ascend the throne.

By that time, he must go and humiliate Zhu Yuanzhang and Chu Nan. Who let these two people make him so upset?

……

Hu Weiyong's men were taking action and soon spread the news of what he was going to do to the Northern Yuan and Nuzhen people in the north.

The people of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and the Nüzhen people did want to play tricks on Hu Weiyong before and did not want to put in any effort, but after they heard what Hu Weiyong said, they felt that it made sense.

If you don't make an effort now, you will perish sooner or later.

So they decided to cooperate with Hu Weiyong to harass the northern part of the Ming Dynasty and attract Li Wenzhong's attention.

However, Hu Weiyong has not yet given the order for them to cooperate, so they are also waiting for the opportunity.

But it’s different with the Japanese pirates.

To the east of Taizhou in the Ming Dynasty, more than 200 miles away on the sea, there is an unnamed island. The island is not small and has forests. There are many birds and animals in the forests, and even fresh water resources.

There are also many people living on the island. There are many tents built on the island for people to live in, as well as cabins and caves for people to live in.

Then on the open space by the sea, there were a lot of clothes, salted fish, and even bacon hanging out to dry. It looked like there were quite a lot of people there.

But if you look closely, you will find that the people living here are very dangerous.

I saw that most of them were men, about five or six hundred of them. They all looked ferocious, had many scars on their bodies, and spoke in an abusive tone.

Yes, these people were none other than the Japanese pirates who had suffered from the Ming Dynasty for a long time. The composition of the Japanese pirates was complex, including pirates from the coast of the Ming Dynasty, Japanese warriors, ronin, and even merchants.

However, this group of Japanese pirates is mainly composed of Japanese people, and there are more than just this few people in this group.

Their people are everywhere on dozens of islands around. In total, there are at least tens of thousands of Japanese pirates.

At this moment, the leader of the Japanese pirates was discussing matters in a wooden house on the island.

In the cabin.

The leader of the Japanese pirates was wearing Japanese clothes, with a Japanese sword on his waist, and was kneeling on a mat. Several other Japanese pirate leaders were sitting next to him.

What was striking was that next to the Japanese pirate leader, there was a man wearing Ming Dynasty clothing. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Hu Weiyong's nephew, Hu Lu.

At this moment, the Japanese pirate leader Taro Kojima looked at Hu Lu and nodded.

"Please rest assured, Hu Sang. Tell Lord Hu that we will continue to harass the Ming border and will not let down the weapons, equipment and supplies Lord Hu has given us."

Taro Kojima said this, but he was even happier in his heart.

Baga will not continue to harass the Ming Dynasty. By robbing the Ming Dynasty, they can not only get things but also get support. Why not do it?

During this period, they robbed and took away countless amounts of food, oxen, money, and women.

Now, I don’t know how many women from the Ming Dynasty are imprisoned on dozens of islands around here. It feels so great.

So Taro Kojima decided that he must continue. He wanted to rob more things: food, treasures, women, he wanted them all!
"Chief!" But just as Taro Kojima was daydreaming, a Japanese pirate came in to report.

"Our scouts in the Ming Dynasty have sent us news!" "Oh?" Upon hearing this, Taro Kojima's face immediately became serious.

"Tell me, what's the news?"

"Hmm..." But when the Japanese pirates saw Hu Lu here, they hesitated again.

"Bakayaro!" Seeing this situation, Taro Kojima immediately cursed the Japanese pirates.

"Hu Sang is our most distinguished guest. If you have something to say, just say it!"

Taro Kojima didn't dare to provoke Hu Lu. The reason was simple. Even though he now occupied so many islands and had more than 10,000 people, he was still very proud of himself.

However, his current development was inseparable from the help of Hu Weiyong. If he were asked to fight against the Ming court on his own, he would not dare to do so.

So he must have to look at Hu Lu's face, how dare he offend him.

"Yes, yes." Upon hearing this, the Japanese pirates immediately spoke up.

"Our scouts reported that Taizhou City in the Ming Dynasty will hold a jade fair. Many dignitaries in the Ming Dynasty will go there to buy jade."

"Is that so?" Upon hearing this, Taro Kojima's face showed joy.

"The Jade Fair, all the dignitaries are here? They must bring a lot of money to buy things. If we rob them, won't we make a fortune?"

"Besides, these high-ranking officials will definitely bring along their beautiful wives and concubines. We will rob them all at once, hehe, Yoshi!"

The more Taro Kojima thought about it, the happier he became, and he couldn't stop laughing.

"Yoshi, Yoshi!" The other Japanese pirate leaders were also delighted when they heard this.

"Hmm?" Seeing this situation, Hu Lu seemed very calm and spoke while looking at Taro Kojima.

"Calm down, Kojima-kun. There will probably be a lot of Ming army garrisons at this kind of event. Can we defeat these garrisons and rob these dignitaries?"

"Yes!" Hearing this, Taro Kojima suddenly calmed down.

The reason why these Japanese pirates were able to rob so many things in the Ming Dynasty was simply because they avoided the Ming Dynasty’s official troops and only robbed ordinary people. Otherwise, they would not even know how they died.

After all, the combat effectiveness of the Ming Dynasty's official army is still very strong, and they are not the useless troops of the Jiajing period.

"What should we do?" The other Japanese pirate leaders also frowned. Are they going to just eat the fat meat that is right in front of their mouths?

"Yes." Taro Kojima also frowned.

Such a big piece of fat, are you really not going to eat it?
He looked at Hu Lu, his face anxious: "Hu Sang, can't we fight?"

Hu Lu frowned when he saw this situation. These Japanese pirates were really greedy. Do ten thousand bandits want to fight against the Ming army?

But he also knew that he probably wouldn't be able to persuade these pirates not to do this. The reason was simple: these pirates were greedy and he couldn't stop them.

After thinking about it, he decided to think of something for these Japanese pirates, and then looked at Taro Kojima and spoke.

"Kojima-kun, you should first find out the deployment of Taizhou's troops. If there are not many people, you can attack. If there are too many people, you still have to be cautious."

"I understand!" Taro Kojima was happy to hear this.

"I know, you Chinese have an old saying, hehe, misunderstood as a hero, if there are too many people from Taizhou, we will just run away and not fight."

Then he looked at the Japanese pirates who came to report the news and said, "Immediately send the scouts lurking in Taizhou to investigate!"
