Chapter 143 Everyone Has Different Ideas

Daimyos, look at me, I look at you, no one said anything, Tokugawa Ieyasu glanced around the daimyos in the room, out of breath: "We are standing in the same position! The Taige is different! He is fighting with his own headquarters now, and he will have a reason to fight with our people at that time! Ming soldiers are fierce, and we will lose tens of thousands if we fight. You can lose tens of thousands ? You think my family has a great career, but I can say that I can't afford to lose even ten thousand!"

The daimyos looked ugly, and their eyes were full of calculations.

"In the eyes of the Taige, we are both foreign daimyos, and we are the ones to be guarded against. If the Taige wins, we may not be able to benefit. If the Taige loses, we will suffer together. The Ming army will kill us, and they will not care who we are. Who is the direct descendant and who is not the direct descendant, you don’t need me to explain this truth, you should understand it, right?”

Tokugawa Ieyasu's hands kept tapping on the small table in front of him.

Everyone here is an animal of interest, and no one will fail to understand this sentence.

"Then, at least you need to come up with the exact method, let us think about it..."

A veteran daimyo spoke.

Tokugawa Ieyasu nodded: "I understand this, I will prepare as soon as possible, but everyone should think about it, once this news is accidentally leaked and Taiko finds out, we really have no way out, or follow what I said , another day, another day, or, go all the way to Hei with the Taige, and fight with the Ming army, how to choose, you should be very clear in your heart."

At the same time, in Toyotomi Hideyoshi's mansion, Kuroda Rushui knelt and sat on the cushion with some care, feeling the unusual eyes of the old man opposite him, feeling worried.

"Guanbingwei, tell me, how many years have we not sat together, drank tea and chatted like this?"

Toyotomi Hideyoshi personally poured a cup of tea for Kuroda Rusui, and then brought the teacup to Kuroda Rushui. Kuroda Rushui quickly took it, and said: "I can't remember the years in the mountains, about seven or eight years ago. Now, since the Taige established the world, the country is safe and peaceful, and the people are rich, so naturally there is no room for Rushui."

"You don't tell the truth!"

Toyotomi Hideyoshi's words startled Kuroda Rushui, the hand holding the teacup trembled, and after finally calming down, Kuroda Rushui hurriedly said, "Rushui dare not tell lies."

"Then why didn't you tell me about the war in Korea? Don't think that I'm getting confused when I'm old. The good news comes one after another. It stands to reason that the King of Joseon's letter of surrender and Ming's letter of begging for mercy should arrive. But until now there is no news, I wrote to ask Hideo, Hideo was vague, and what made me even more puzzled was that I haven't received letters from President Konishi and Kiyomasa Kato for a while."

Toyotomi Hideyoshi picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "Xiaoxi will write me a letter in half a month, and Kato will write me a letter of peace in seven days. Now, I haven't had a letter in almost a month." I have received their letters and peace letters, Guan Bingwei, tell me, did something happen to them?"

Kuroda Rushui was uneasy. These days, his eyelids were always twitching, and he always felt a little dazed. He didn't know why. Years of experience instinctively gave him an ominous premonition, but he couldn't get any information from his son. The effective news made Kuroda Rushui a little worried.

Facing the same problem with Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Kuroda Rusui instinctively sensed that there was a problem, but he didn't know what the problem was. He was familiar with Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and he knew that if he made a bad guess at this time, he would also I don't know how Toyotomi Hideyoshi will change his face. At this time, Toyotomi Hideyoshi seems to be calm and breezy. In fact, drinking the bitter tea is a reflection of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's uneasy mood.

He is very disturbed!

"Rushui guesses that Xiaoxi-kun and Kato-kun may have reached the territory of the Ming country, and it is not convenient to write letters, and it is not easy to send them. The army is marching towards the territory of the Ming country, and they are attacking everywhere, so there is not much time. Pass the news to the country, and when the overall situation is settled, Taige will definitely receive countless good news!"

After Kuroda Rushui finished speaking, she lowered her head and waited cautiously for Toyotomi Hideyoshi's reaction.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi put down his tea bowl.

"hahahahahahahahahahaha--"

Hearing this kind of laughter, Kuroda Rushui secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He was sure that he had passed the test at risk.

"I just said, the army is progressing so fast, and North Korea has fallen long ago. How could it be defeated? You don't know. Yesterday, someone told me that he heard the news that the war in North Korea was very bad, and many people died in the battle. The army was driven to Busan to defend the local area. I said how is it possible? A month ago, Konishi was still in Pyongyang. Why, it can be done like this in less than a month? When my favorite generals are all trash? I cut them off on the spot His head! Now it seems that you are the most sober officer, Bingwei! Hahahahaha!"

Hearing Toyotomi Hideyoshi's wild laughter, Kuroda Rushui's heart was as cold as if he had fallen into an ice hole. While forcing a smile and calling "Taiko Wansheng", he was worried about his son's fate.

It is impossible for Toyotomi Hideyoshi to believe in his own defeat. Kuroda Rusui is very convinced of this, and calmly he is basically sure that those rumors are actually true. I can't think of any other way to change this situation. The only way is to withdraw as soon as possible before the whole army is wiped out, and then send envoys to discuss peace. This can save the last trace of vitality.

However, the existence of Toyotomi Hideyoshi makes this possibility infinitely lower. According to Kuroda Rusui's guess and Kuroda Nagamasa's family letter, Kuroda Rusui can easily speculate about the tricks of the invading army. Let Taige, who is obviously not in the right state of mind, continue to be happy and continue to live in his dream, so as to cover up his failure.

But they never thought that the better the dream now, the worse the situation will be in the future. They have no worse situation, right?Now that the army has been defeated, and the entire army is about to be annihilated, Taige is still dreaming that the army has already started to attack the Ming country, and Taige's mental state is very strange, which aggravates Kuroda Rushui's worries.

Kuroda Rusui felt worried for himself, for Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and for the future of the whole of Japan like never before. For the first time, he felt a sense of confusion that he could not get out of the situation.

In contrast, Zhu Yijun's current feelings are quite different from those of Kuroda Rushui, and it can even be said to be the complete opposite.

The source of this emotion is Xiao Ruxun's secret report from October 27th. Zhu Yijun received this secret report on the evening of November [-]th. After opening it and reading it, I felt my heart was pounding and I was about to jump out. up.
