Mingshi

Chapter 1154 Meeting the Japanese Envoy
"Yes!" Wang Wenxiu whispered.

"That's why you reported to His Majesty, and His Majesty sent me here."

There was silence in the hall, Luo Xin squinted his eyes, and shouted to the outside: "Daqing, go outside the city, and ask General Qi to lead five hundred soldiers into the city."

"Yes!"

Lu Daqing responded outside, then left in a hurry.Wang Wenxiu asked tremblingly:
"Sir, are you?"

Luo Xin waved his hands and said, "Go and send someone to invite the Japanese envoys over and tell them that I want to see them."

After the words fell, Luo Xin closed his eyes.Wang Wenxiu had no choice but to immediately send someone to inform the Japanese envoys.About three quarters of an hour later, footsteps sounded outside, Luo Xin moved his ears, opened his eyes, and said lightly:
"There are a lot of people, more than one hundred."

"There are 28 officials in Wa, and 120 and six warriors."

At this time, through the opened gate, Luo Xin saw a group of Japanese people appearing on the Qingshi Road outside the gate.Crashing into the lobby, the leader of a Japanese envoy was about to salute when he heard Luo Xin's faint voice:

"Why are there so many people coming in? Leave three behind and leave the rest."

The Japanese envoy was stunned, squinting his eyes and looking at Luo Dao: "May I ask your Excellency?"

"Roxin!"

The Japanese envoy's expression changed, Luo Xin's prestige was like thunder to his ears.When I was in Wa Kingdom, I had heard of Luo Xin. Luo Xin killed Wang Zhi, Xu Hai and other four pirates, which had greatly deterred Wa Kingdom.After arriving in Daming, I heard that Luo Xin had wiped out 8 people in Korea.This made these Japanese people have a deep fear of Luo Xin. After hearing this, only three people were left behind, and the rest returned to the door.Then he bowed deeply to Luo Xin and saluted:
"Da Dao pretends to meet Lord Luo."

Luo Xin looked at him indifferently and said: "I know what you are here for. It is not impossible to ask our Ming Dynasty to send troops. However, sending troops cannot be done in vain. Your Wa Kingdom needs tens of millions of taels of silver as military expenses."

"My lord!" The Japanese envoy was stunned, but still maintained a respectful expression, bent down and said, "Lord Luo is famous, and we are well-known in the Japanese country. Originally, when Daming was invited to send troops, we should have sent tens of millions of taels of silver. It's just that Now our country of Wa is being invaded, even if we have mines, we can’t mine them. We promise that as long as Daming can send troops, our country of Wa will definitely give us the tens of millions of taels of silver, but we just ask Daming to send troops first.”

Luo Xin said indifferently: "Are you a civil servant or military officer in Wa Kingdom?"

"Civilian." The Japanese envoy looked at Luo Xin with some puzzlement.

Luo Xin frowned and said: "Even if you are a civil servant, haven't you heard that soldiers and horses go first without moving food and grass?"

The Japanese envoy's expression became ugly, Luo Xin's words were very clear, that is, if your Japanese country doesn't give you money first, then don't even think about our Ming Dynasty sending troops.

and……

He could feel that Luo Xin didn't want to send troops at all.He knew in his heart that it was impossible to fool Daming into sending troops. Since fooling couldn't work, the only thing left was threats.He straightened up slowly, looked at Luo Xin who was sitting high on the head, and said in a concentrated voice:

"Lord Luo, although our Japanese country cannot give money to Daming first, we Japanese pirates can also do something for Daming."

"What's the matter?" Luo Xin's smile was still faint, even with a hint of sarcasm.

This made the Japanese envoy feel very uncomfortable, so he said in a condensed voice: "Our Japanese country can help Daming order those pirates not to harass Daming."

Luo Xin's eyes narrowed slightly, and the killing intent flickered in the slits of his eyes, which made the Japanese envoy's heart tremble.What caused Luo Xin to kill was the word "order" in the sentence of the Japanese envoy.He didn't say extermination, but ordered. What does this mean?
This means that the Japanese pirates at sea are under their command.Of course, Luo Xin knew that those Japanese pirates might have had some relationship with this person in front of him before, because they were all defeated Japanese warriors, and they would cooperate with the current Japanese country, but if they ordered them, they would be bragging.

However, whether it is blowing or not, this is a threat from the other party.Even if Luo Xin threatened him, it was also a threat to Daming.Facing this kind of threat, Luo Xin always throws it back.

"boom……"

The ground trembled slightly, and there was a thunderous sound of horseshoes.The Honglu Temple officials sitting on both sides breathed a sigh of relief.Just now they saw the tense atmosphere between Luo Xin and the Japanese envoy, and there were more than 100 Japanese warriors staring at them outside the gate. Although Honglu Temple also had government servants, they were counting on them...

Forget it!

They all knew that Luo Xin sent someone to invite Qi Jiguang to lead the troops, so when they heard the sound of horseshoes at this time, they knew that it was Qi Jiguang who had come.Their tense mood also relaxed.

"Ta Tata..."

There was a sound of dense footsteps, and five hundred soldiers rushed in, surrounded the Japanese envoys with a "crash", Qi Jiguang glanced coldly at the Japanese warriors, and then strode into the gate , saluted Luo Xin and said:
"The last general, Qi Jiguang, has seen your lord."

The face of the Japanese envoy changed, Qi Jiguang and the others knew it too well.That is definitely a tiger general, and beat the pirates so badly.Seeing that Qi Jiguang led the soldiers to surround the Japanese people outside the door, his face turned pale.

Could it be that Daming united with that Huaxia country?

"My lord, what is this?" the Japanese envoy suppressed the panic in his heart and asked in a concentrated voice.

Luo Xin looked at the Japanese envoy calmly, and after a while, said lightly:

"You just said that your Japanese country can help us, Daming, and order those pirates at sea not to harass Daming?"

"It's pirates, not Japanese pirates!" The Japanese envoy hurriedly explained.

Luo Xin waved his hand indifferently and said, "Well, it's a pirate. Can you order the pirates?"

Luo Xin's eyes suddenly burst out with killing intent, and he said coldly: "It's an order! Is it?"

The Japanese envoy's cold sweat began to flow down. At this moment, he felt that he had just exaggerated.Luo Xin is going to kill them.What orders did you say!Doesn't that mean that the Japanese pirates at sea were instigated by them?Hastily shook his head and said:
"Lord Luo, I made a slip of the tongue just now. It was not an order, but to help Da Ming destroy those pirates and prevent them from harassing Da Ming."

"Yes!" Luo Xin calmed down and said, "I have roughly understood that there are probably less than 1 Japanese pirates at sea today. I will give this officer the heads of [-] Japanese pirates, and I will consider sending troops."

"My lord...our country is being invaded right now, and I really can't find enough energy. If Da Ming can help our Wa country, after our country is pacified, we will definitely help Da Ming wipe out those pirates, so that Da Ming won't be harassed in the slightest."
