The Shimabara Rebellion, or 'Shimabara, Amakusa Rebellion', had a great impact at the end of Japan's Warring States period, and the final consequence was that Tokugawa Iemitsu paid a huge price to extinguish the rebellion, but it also led to the completion of the 'closed country' of the Wa Kingdom, and completely entered a state of lockdown and closure.
Zhu Xu was limited to 'remembering' this battle, and didn't know anything else.
But he knew that this was an opportunity to insert into the Wa Kingdom, and he couldn't miss it!
Zhu Xu saw that Fu Tao was a little excited, and said with a smile: "The Japanese people have always been cunning, and it is not strange at all.
Now that my Ming Dynasty basically controls the sea lanes in East Asia, the Dutch will not dare to mess around without my permission.
They brought the news to me as nothing more than a test of my mind. ” Fu Tao thought about it and said, "Your Majesty, what should I do?"
We can't let the Japanese state stop, if they think that I am a big deceitful, I am afraid that they will invade Korea again. ” Zhu Xu's eyes suddenly cold, and he said coldly, "It is said that Tokugawa sent a general to Jiuguo Island, and the army under his command is said to have more than 100,000 people, ready to extinguish this rebellion in one go." ” Fu Tao looked at Zhu Xu and did not speak this time.
Zhu Xu turned to the tea cover and said as if talking to himself: "More than 100,000 troops, hehe, the strength of the Tokugawa shogunate is really surprising to me......
As long as the Tokugawa shogunate goes to war, the navy will bombard the Kanmon Strait and cut off the supply of more than 100,000 troops. ” Fu Tao's heart was cold, more than 100,000 troops had no supplies, this was unimaginable!
After Zhu Xu finished saying this, he looked at Fu Tao again and said: "It's okay to meet that Japanese man, the drama is better, no, just really come, these silver mines will be mine's in the future, it won't be long before I can get them, and the preliminary preparations must be done!"
” Fu Tao understood and said, "Yes."
The minister will come to the field tomorrow and deliberately drag him. ” More than 100,000 troops, one more day is a day's consumption!
It is not only the huge grain and grass that is consumed, but also the morale, morale, and will of the army!
Zhu Xu nodded, and suddenly said: "The currency replacement should be intensified, and it is best to complete it in the next two or three years. ” Fu Tao bowed down and said, "Yes."
The minister has been increasing his efforts this year, and the local yamen have been asking all the government, traders, and people to use the old currency, and the proportion of the imperial court's expenditure on the new currency is also increasing, tens of millions of dollars per year. ” Zhu Xu saw that Fu Tao was so confident and did not hit him.
Even Fu Tao underestimated the Tibetan silver of the Ming Dynasty.
Not to mention these years, since the Tang Dynasty, the silver flowing into the Central Plains Dynasty has not been broken, billions, how can it be exchanged for three or two hundred million to replace it completely.
Now Daming is in a transition between the old and the new era, many things are new, and many things are no longer the same.
Most of Zhu Xu's current reforms are 'precautionary', and officials are still vague about their responsibilities and the future, especially the real situation of the affairs under their management.
These are all things to take slowly, not in a hurry.
Zhu Xu was patient, explained a few words to Fu Tao, and then looked at Cao Huachun and said, "Let the people from the Military Intelligence Department come to see me, and there are also people from the General Staff Office." ” Jinyiwei's military intelligence agencies and personnel are now quietly and orderly assigned to the military intelligence department.
"Yes."
Cao Huachun said.
After Fu Tao left, he didn't say much, He Xilian, the director of the Military Intelligence Department, and Qian Jinxiao, the director of the General Staff Office, appeared in front of Zhu Xu's royal table.
After listening to Zhu Xu's words, He Xilian pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, the situation on Jiuguo Island is quite complicated, according to the information collected by the ministers.
The rebellion on Jiuguo Island was actually caused by Catholicism, most of them were Christians participating in the war, and the leader was a young man of sixteen or seventeen years old, Mingjiao Shiro Shizhen, who had fifty or sixty thousand young men in his hands, and was now gathered near the original city.
The Tokugawa shogunate sent to conquer it was called Itakura Shigemasa, who was a close confidant of Tokugawa Iemitsu, and combined with the troops of the surrounding countries with 30,000 or 40,000 troops, it was reasonable to say that it should be able to be easily destroyed, but it had already been defeated three times and suffered heavy losses.
Tokugawa Iemitsu was angry and was already about to replace him.
At the same time, behind these rebels there are also the shadows of the Ida, Otomo and other feudal states, and of course, the Satsuma Domain. ” Zhu Xu nodded slightly when he listened, and the understanding of the Military Intelligence Department was still relatively detailed.
"What does the Staff Office have in mind?"
Zhu Xu looked at Qian Jinxiao, the head of the staff office.
Qian Jinxiao stepped forward, took out a map of the Japanese kingdom and spread it on Zhu Xu's imperial table, and said: "Your Majesty, the Japanese kingdom is really a disaster for my Ming Dynasty, and I must not let the people of the Japanese kingdom set foot on North Korea again."
The minister thought that in addition to letting the Japanese state consume in Jiuguo Island, I also needed to put enough pressure on the Japanese country, and the staff office made several plans.
First, the Satsuma clan supported the rebels and continued to fight against the Wakoku shogunate, and at the same time, I took the Ming Dynasty step by step to annex the slightly more remote feudal states around the Wakuni kingdom, such as this Tsushima, and even on the island of Shikoku.
In addition, the minister felt that the northernmost island of the Japanese kingdom, which connected Sakhalin Island, could be taken.
The Wakoku didn't care much about this island, and there were only a few feudal states on it, which could be easily taken, and it was very close to Edo, which would definitely give the Tokugawa shogunate a huge deterrent!
” Zhu Xu listened, his eyes looked at the map, and he couldn't help but flicker.
Qian Jinxiao's words aroused Zhu Xu's great interest.
Qian Jinxiao glanced at Zhu Xu's side face, and hurriedly continued: "Your Majesty, if you can establish a naval and army base on this island, step by step, whether it is to deter the Japanese people now, weaken their strength, or destroy the Japanese in the future, it will be of great benefit." ” Zhu Xu squinted, his fingers slowly tapped on the table, and the sound of pony hooves sounded.
He Xilian did not move, and glanced at Qian Jinxiao.
The General Staff Office is responsible for drawing up operational plans and the Military Intelligence Service is responsible for gathering intelligence, and the two are separate but mutually reinforcing.
Qian Jinxiao was calm on the surface, but his heart was unusually boiling.
The last time Mongolia's affairs, the Generalissimo's Office contributed limitedly, and the Japanese Kingdom was different this time, if it could be led into the Ming Dynasty, it would definitely be a famous achievement in history!
This is far away, and it can also enhance the reputation of the Generalissimo's Palace, consolidate their position and power, and strengthen the internal planning of the Generalissimo's Palace.
After a moment, Zhu Xu raised his head and said, "The Generalissimo's Mansion immediately formulates a detailed battle plan, and I will summon Xiong Wencan and King Tang to enter Beijing." ” This time it is not a large-scale operation, it is a deterrent, the mobilized fleet will not be many, it will not take too long, and the Ming can still bear it.

"Yes!"
He Xilian, Qian Jinxiao bowed and said in a deep voice.
Ichiro Tanaka did not live in a post house, but chartered a restaurant, and in his house, all the utensils and habits were Wakoku.
At this moment, he knelt in front of the small table, sipping tea, and said with an intoxicated face: "The Ming people are in the Central Plains, and it is really in the world, and this tea is not available in my country." ” In front of him, kneeling sat two samurai, with dark and indifferent faces, one of them bowed his head and said, "Palace, let's leave as soon as possible, if the Ming people find us, they will definitely not let us go." ” Tanaka Ichiro did not have the restraint in front of Fu Tao and Hu Lianshan before, his facial features were tough, calm and calm, holding a teacup in front of his nose, gently fanning it with his hand, looking drunk but not drunk, and he couldn't extricate himself.
The two samurai looked at each other and waited.
After a while, Ichiro Tanaka put down the teacup and said, "Did I ask you to inquire about the matter clearly?"
” One of the samurai said, "Yes."
We have investigated, and the court of the Ming people is very complicated, and the Ming people themselves can't figure out who has the final say.
But their emperor has the supreme right, this emperor, he listens to the queen mother's words very much. ” "Daisho?"
Ichiro Tanaka's expression moved slightly, and he said thoughtfully: "So, what does this queen mother like?"
Where are the weaknesses?
” The two warriors frowned, and one said: "Palace, that's the Queen Mother, you want everything, living in the deep palace, it's difficult for us to get close." ” Ichiro Tanaka looked at the two samurai with a calm expression, and said, "Then, what are the other effects?"
” "There are a few people who have successfully bought them, but they are all petty officials and have little influence, and they can't detect the specific ideas and strategies of the Ming Dynasty against the Japanese state."
A bushido.
As soon as he finished speaking, the two warriors suddenly bowed down and said, "Dazheng Office!"
” One was dressed in a big red shirt, looked like he was in his early twenties, his facial features were as delicate as carvings, his posture was enchanting, and his every move was fragrant, and he came out of a house not far away.
