Go back to the Ming Dynasty to be a thousand households

Chapter 305 Negotiations
Ishida Mitsunari thought to himself: "This young admiral from the Tang Dynasty knows so much about our country, could it be my Toyotomi family... or is there some internal thief somewhere?"

But after thinking about it, he couldn't remember who the thief was, or there were too many people to suspect.Whether it is the top five elders or the five adherents, how many of them are very doubtful!
He smiled awkwardly, and said: "My lord sees thousands of miles clearly, and my envoy admires it!"

He took out a letter from a kit in his hand and said: "This is the letter of credence from my country to Lord Shang, please have a look at it, Lord Admiral!"

Azhi came down and took the letter, and handed it to Huang Laifu. Huang Laifu took a look at it. The letter was written in Chinese characters. It was all polite nonsense. Sent you here, what does she want?"

Ishida Mitsunari said respectfully: "At present, the army of Shangguo is approaching the border, and my wife is restless day and night. Thinking about the danger of the war, and the loss of life, the lady hopes that you can retreat and return the captured Japanese prisoners. The two countries will maintain peace. My wife also knows that Qing Our country has offended the Heavenly Dynasty during the long battle, if the Shang Kingdom is willing to withdraw its troops, our country will send an envoy to the Shang Kingdom to plead guilty!"

Huang Laifu said indifferently: "You also know that your Japanese nation has offended me. Heavenly Dynasty, you want to send us away with such flimsy words of apology? It's easy to ask God to send God away!"

Marshal Quan Li of the North Korean capital suddenly stood up, cut his fingers and cursed: "Japanese pirates, you have offended the heaven and the court, and you have committed many crimes in our land of North Korea. I wish I could eat the flesh of Japanese slaves alive! This time! My army is gathered in the Japanese land, and I will never retreat until I trample you Japanese pirates into ashes!"

Ishida Mitsunari reassured himself, and said: "Dare to ask the admiral of Shangguo, if you want to withdraw troops, what are the conditions of Shangguo?"

Huang Laifu said: "Okay, let's not talk nonsense, our conditions are here, can you take a look?"

As he spoke, he took out a note from his arms, Azhi took it, and handed it to Ishida Mitsunari.

Ishida Mitsunari hurriedly opened it to take a look, and saw dozens of articles densely packed on it, which were roughly about trade, land cession, and compensation.

Ishida Mitsunari looked at it one by one, and the first item in front was that Japan must guarantee that it would never invade North Korea in the future, and that it was not allowed to build Korean wooden house warships and Ming Daifukan-class warships.

The latter ones are roughly that Japan has opened eight cities including Nagasaki, Shimonoseki, and Nagoya as treaty ports, so that Ming merchants can go deep into the Japanese mainland for business and trade, and Japan must ensure the safety of Ming merchants.In addition, Daming was allowed to set up consulates and build factories at various treaty ports, designate special residences for Ming merchants, and station a certain amount of troops to protect the safety of overseas Chinese.

Seeing this, Ishida Mitsunari was overjoyed. After the first Korean War, when his own Taiko and Daming negotiated peace, they hoped that the two sides could conduct business and trade. Unexpectedly, they disagreed at the time, but now they won the victory, they agreed instead.

Haha, are all Tang people stupid?
As for ensuring the safety of the merchants from the Tang Dynasty, this is a matter of course. If their safety is not protected, how can they come to do business? ...well, what is this consular officer?There is also a certain amount of troops stationed at various ports... In the current situation, if you don't agree, you have to agree.

Looking at it further, it is a request to cede Tsushima Island and Tottori Castle to Daming.

There is a problem here. If there is nothing wrong with ceding Tsushima Island, then ceding Tottori Castle will be a big problem.Everyone knows that this Tottori Castle is the fiefdom of Terumoto Mori, one of the five elders, and there is also the Iwami Silver Mine here, which accounts for several percent of Japan's silver income... After the Tang Dynasty occupied Tottori Castle some time ago, Mori Terumoto cried to his wife every day, hoping that the Toyotomi family would send troops to help him regain his fief... If there is no Iwami Ginzan, his Toyotomi family will be impoverished rapidly.

This Tottori city needs to be negotiated with the Tang people, even if they pay a certain amount of money, they have to be asked to let it out.

Seeing this all the time, Ishida Sancheng was not surprised at all, but when he saw the last item, he jumped up suddenly: "What, let Japan compensate Ming Dynasty for 1000 million taels of military expenditure, and North Korea for [-] million taels of military expenditure? "

He jumped up like this, blushing and shouting, which shocked everyone present, but everyone was shocked because of his gaffe.It was because of what he said that shocked everyone.

Ma Gui, Chen Lin, Dong Yiyuan, Liu Ting, North Korean Marshal Quan Li and others present at the scene, although they all know that the current peace talks tomorrow will be dominated by Admiral Huang Laifu, they also know that Huang Laifu is mysterious during these times. Draft a peace treaty for tomorrow, but based on their imaginations, they never imagined that Huang Laifu would dare to ask Japan to compensate Daming for 1000 million taels of military expenses and North Korea for [-] million taels of military expenses!
You know, the current financial revenue of Ming Dynasty, including rice, taxes, various silver conversions, and various central and local revenues, is only three to forty million taels a year, and the seven-year court war is nothing more than a fee 4000 million taels of silver.Now it is necessary to ask Japan to pay 700 taels in one breath. This is really... not to mention that all the generals present, even the civil servants, dare not open such a big mouth.

For a moment, everyone gasped, not knowing what to say!Everyone can only say in their hearts, this Huang Laifu spirit is really too big, what a lion!Gu Dadao beside Huang Laifu also bared his teeth, just marveling at his uncle's spirit.

Chen Lin, the chief soldier of the navy, also opened his eyes wide, thinking to himself that there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky, this is it!In the past, I tried my best to corrupt in Guangdong and other places, and I only made a few thousand taels of silver a year, and I was impeached and impeached by the censor!After arriving in North Korea, Huang Laifu promised him that he would give him 10 taels of silver if he successfully marched into Japan. At that time, he was already cheering, but he didn't expect that his appetite compared with Huang Laifu's was nothing compared to Huang Laifu's!

He just kept rolling his eyes.

Marshal Quan Li of the Korean capital listened to Ishida Mitsunari's call. He was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed. He didn't expect that the admiral of Shangguo was so considerate, and he even won the compensation for himself. Up and down, how happy will it be?Even after the wars in the past few years, North Korea is devastated, if it can get so much compensation, it will be worth it.

Moreover, during these times, the North Korean army landed in Japan with the Ming army, and every time they killed people, massacred cities and robbed Japanese land, they gained a lot of benefits and vented their grievances from the war for several years. If they get compensation...

Immediately he was the first to jump out and said: "Japanese thief, you have offended the heavenly court, and now you have provoked the heavenly army to come to the city, and asking you to pay ten million taels of silver is really cheap for you. Don't get cheap and act like a good boy!"

Ishida Matsunari said to Huang Laifu with fiery eyes: "Master Shangguo, the first few clauses of these agreements can still be negotiated. The compensation for the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty is 1000 million taels of silver. The country is small and the power is poor. No matter what I can’t afford compensation, please forgive me, my lord!”

Huang Laifu shouted suddenly: "Bold, you little Japanese envoy, how dare you speak to this admiral in such a tone? Your Japanese country has offended my heaven. Dynasty, you should have this report. Do you think the war between the two countries is a child's play? This treaty does not allow If you doubt it, you better accept it obediently, otherwise I, Da Ming’s [-] cavalry, will crush all of your Japanese islands!"

Ishida Mitsunari gasped and said: "Master Admiral, although our country was defeated in Korea, it is not without strength. If there is no way to retreat, we in Japan will unite, and the lessons learned by the Yuan Bandits are right in front of us!"

Hearing that he dared to speak out threats, everyone present was furious, everyone put their hands on the hilt of their swords and shouted curses, and for a while, they were murderous. Ishida Mitsunari was actually a civil servant in Japan, and he had never seen this kind of fighting. He was frightened from time to time, but he still gritted his teeth and endured it.

Huang Laifu waved his hands to stop everyone's actions, and said with a sneer: "The lessons learned from Yuan Kou? That Meng Yuan is a barbarian, and the heavens despise him, so there should be this reward! My emperor Ming is a majestic Chinese orthodox, protected by the gods, how can it be those fools?" Is it comparable to the captives? Now that our army has landed in Japan for a long time, can we see any gods? In terms of the protection of the gods, you Amaterasu children are far worse than our merciful and compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, Tathagata Buddha, Taishang Laojun, and Mazu Goddess !"

His face sank, and he shouted: "You Japanese country had better agree to my agreement, otherwise when my heavenly soldiers arrive, we will end up burning everything together, and it will be too late for regret!"

"That's the end of the agreement today, pull the Japanese envoy out for me!"

……

Ishida Mitsunari was taken to rest in the post house in Yanyuan City, where his followers had already been arranged here.They were all anxious, seeing Ishida Mitsunari come back, they all asked.Ishida Mitsunari sighed, and when he talked about this matter with his staff and followers, everyone was shocked. The request of the admiral from the Tang Dynasty was so high?
Everyone discussed, among the treaties proposed by Huang Laifu, the first few items can be agreed, but the last one, Japan has absolutely no choice.It's just... Right now, the army of the Tang Dynasty is approaching the city, and the soldiers are pointing directly at the capital and the city of Osaka. The military situation is urgent. If the peace talks are not negotiated, I and my party will absolutely not be able to return to China.

In the next few days, Ishida Mitsunari begged to see Huang Laifu twice, but each time, Huang Laifu insisted on the contract, leaving Ishida Mitsunari helpless.

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, Ishida Mitsunari was sitting in the post house and sighing, when he suddenly reported that it was Mr. Konishi who was visiting.

Ishida Mitsunari was overjoyed. Since Governor Konishi and the Second Army Corps all surrendered and were captured, he never heard from Governor Konishi again.For the Toyotomi family, the current ruling crisis of their family is getting more and more serious. President Konishi is loyal to the Toyotomi family. His Second Army has more than [-] people, and it is also a famous strong soldier in Japan. The Korean War is the vanguard. If Governor Xiaonishi returns home safely with his army, the wings of the Toyotomi family will be greatly strengthened, and the daimyos who are ready to move around will also feel more at ease.

Although President Konishi surrendered to Daming and was scolded in Japan, but for the Toyotomi family, they still value real strength. One of the missions of their Japanese mission here this time is to win these The captured Xingchang Xiaoxi and others were released as soon as possible.

There has been no news of President Konishi, and now he suddenly heard that President Konishi is visiting, Ishida Mitsunari was naturally overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to welcome President Konishi in.
