Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 367: The strength of Chinese envoys
Latest website: At the pier of Hirado Castle, a flag with a cross pattern was erected. A dozen samurai led hundreds of foot light infantry to control the pier.
134 merchant ships from the Eastern Han Dynasty docked at the dock, mighty and mighty, and there were 400 warships escorting them.
The last time he visited Hirado Castle, Hirado Castle Lord's flag was not a cross.
If the samurai suddenly appearing at the docks is another force in the East, then the problem is quite serious.
"You step back, this is a guest from Xuzhou. I'll take refuge in your Shimadzu family, but your Shimadzu family must not be in Hirado."
Hirato Castle Lord Hirai Yoshimori appeared and stopped the Shimadzu Samurai who were trying to plunder the Eastern Han merchant ships.
The warriors of the Shimadzu family seem to be afraid of the name Hirai Yoshimori, which is why they stop their dangerous thoughts.
Mi Zhu led a group of Xuzhou merchants to disembark, and glanced at the group of warriors of unknown origin, his eyes arrogant.
Mi Zhu is considered a modest gentleman in Xuzhou, but in front of the barbarians, he will inevitably feel a sense of pride. He comes from a vast man, so how can these barbarians neglect him? Dare to provoke the alien race of the Han Dynasty, which one will end well?
The Xiongnu provoked the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Wu of the Han was furious, and sent Wei Qing and Huo Qubing to fight all the way to Mobei!
Wei's Korea refused to pay tribute to the Han Dynasty, so Emperor Wu of Han sent 50,000 troops to destroy it!
Emperor Han Wu wanted to buy a sweaty BMW, but King Dayuan refused. The envoys of the Han Dynasty cursed King Dayuan on the spot. Emperor Wu of Han then dispatched Li Guangli to go on an expedition to Dawan, forcing the nobles of Dawan to kill the king and beg for peace with the Han Dynasty!
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the general Dou Xianyan made a great effort, and he was awarded the title of champion, such as the story of Huo Qubing.
The Han Dynasty was defeated by force, and the princes of the late Han Dynasty who inherited the style of Han Wu even fought wars every year when they disagreed with each other!
At this time, Mi Zhu considered himself an envoy of the Han Dynasty, and went to Dongying to preside over trade affairs. How could he be deterred by the warriors of unknown origin?
Because of the arrogance of Xuzhou officials such as Mi Zhu, the warriors of the Shimadzu family were somewhat restrained, and it was difficult to judge how powerful the forces behind Mi Zhu were.
That's the way the Eastern Ying people are. The tougher you are, the more they fear or even please you, and the weaker you are, the more they will slap their noses on their faces.
It's a pity that this time they faced officials and businessmen who had the style of martial arts in the Han Dynasty!
"Lord Pingcheng, on behalf of the great country, we have come to do business with you. Why are swords facing each other?"
Mi Zhu questioned Hirato City Lord Heiyi seriously.
Ping Yisheng has experienced the national war and knew the terrible strength of Xuzhou animal husbandry, so he quickly pleaded guilty: "This matter is a long story..."
Ping Yisheng invited Mi Zhu to the Tianshou Pavilion in Hirado City, and did not dare to neglect.
Mi Zhu and others held their heads high, they were not afraid of harming themselves at the fair and righteous event.
If they have an accident in Dongying, their lord will destroy the entire Dongying, avenge their grievances, promote the prestige of the Han Dynasty, and follow the story of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty!
If you offend the envoys of the Han Dynasty, you will risk your country being wiped out!
The samurai of the Shimadzu family looked at the Xuzhou merchant ship moored at the Hirado Castle wharf with greed in their eyes. The cargo of each merchant ship may be worth ten thousand taels of silver!
If this wealth can be plundered, the Shimadzu family can at least expand their army by tens of thousands, increasing the possibility of Shang Luo.
But they dare not.
The aliens from Dongying told the Shimadzu family that on the other side of the sea, there is a strong Chinese civilization, which should not be provoked.
The first thing Dongying Yiren considered was not the Liaodong prefect who was as crazy as the Goryeo Kingdom to provoke the Han Empire. The first thing they considered was how not to provoke the Han Empire.
Compared with foreigners, the warriors of the Eastern Ying Warring States did not know the horror of the Han Empire, so there was a scene of trying to loot the merchant ships of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Fubo Corps sailors who were responsible for escorting the merchant ships went ashore and confronted the Satsuma samurai of the Shimadzu family with crossbows.
The main generals of the Fubo Legion Zheng Zhilong and Xu Sheng did not arrive, but the more than a thousand sailors of the Fubo Legion were still fearless. If the barbarians dare to step forward to loot the ships, they will immediately shoot arrows to kill the barbarians in the Eastern Ying!
This group of soldiers also has a very high martial spirit, and the pride of the Han Dynasty is imprinted in their bones.
Although this is Dongying, even though it may be besieged by a steady stream of samurai and wiped out, they will defend the dignity of the big man without hesitation!
They came to do business peacefully, and if the other party wanted to offend, they had to step on their corpses! And the Xuzhou Shepherd Association behind them will never die!
This is the attitude of the Han Empire in dealing with the surrounding civilizations!
Chen Tang said that those who committed crimes against me will be punished even if they are far away. It is not a cliché, but a real person.
Even in the period of separatism at the end of the Han Dynasty, princes such as Gongsun Zan and Cao Cao could still suppress tribes such as Wuhuan, Xiongnu, and Nanman.
The Satsuma warrior saw that the sailors and soldiers of the Fubo Legion were drawn with swords and arrows. They were clearly in the territory of Dongying, but they were invincible.
The Tianshou Pavilion in Hirado Castle, the city master Pingyi hosted a feast to entertain merchants from Xuzhou.
The usually gentle and elegant Mi Zhu was aggressive at this time, still clinging to the matter just now: "Please also ask City Lord Ping to give us a reasonable explanation for Xuzhou merchants, otherwise, it will bring disaster to the country!"
Ping Yisheng felt the strength of the Han envoy represented by Mi Zhu, and signaled to Mi Zhu to calm down: "After you left Hirado Castle last time, I sent troops to fight with the Otomo family and the Shimadzu family. Unfortunately, I lost the battle and was forced to surrender to Shimadzu. After more than five years of expedition, the Satsuma Corps of the Shimadzu family has taken control of Kyushu Island and is accumulating strength to attack Shikoku Island or Honshu Island and compete with Oda Nobunaga for the world. I mean the world , which are the four islands of Eastern Ying.”
Hirai Yisheng coughed twice, in order to prevent misunderstanding, he pointed out.
The traces of Dongying's imitation of the Eastern Han civilization are too obvious.
The Eastern Han Dynasty takes the territory of the Han Empire as the world, and the Eastern Ying takes the four islands as the world.
Eastern Ying civilization, the daimyo corresponds to the princes, and "Shangluo" refers to the action of the daimyo leading troops into the capital. Luo, namely Luoyang. It is similar to relying on the emperor to make the princes, or the Central Plains in the Spring and Autumn Period.
It can be seen that Dongying is somewhat similar to the reduced version of the Eastern Han Dynasty. After all, it is inevitably influenced by the Han civilization.
"You mean that the Shimadzu family occupied Kyushu Island? Now you are just a retainer of the Shimadzu family?"
Mi Zhu's anger subsided, and he was forced to adapt to the changing situation in Dongying.
Originally, he was not a grumpy person, but was offended by the Shimadzu family samurai, thinking that he was despised by the barbarians, so he was furious.
After calming down, Mi Zhu formed an idea about the situation in Dongying.
There are four islands in Dongying, Kyushu, Shikoku, Honshu and Hokkaido.
Among them, Honshu Island has the largest population and the largest number of daimyo (feudal lords) in the Warring States Period. Ruthless people such as Oda Nobunaga, Takeda Shingen, and Uesugi Kenshin are also on Honshu Island.
The second is Kyushu Island. There are also several ruthless people on Kyushu Island, such as the Shimadzu family and the Otomo family.
Again Shikoku Island.
Finally, Hokkaido.
The princes of the Han Empire are trying their best to unify the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the various names in the Eastern Ying are also trying their best to unify the Eastern Ying, wanting to defeat the powerful opponents, successfully go to Luo, promulgate the order of the world to be safe, and end the turbulent times of the Eastern Ying Warring States.
Now Kyushu Island is basically unified by the Shimadzu family. As one of the great names of Kyushu Island, the player Hirai Yoshii lost the battle and chose to surrender to the Shimadzu family.
As the Colonel of Dongdu, in addition to trade, Mi Zhu also shoulders the mission of inquiring about the situation in Dongying.
When Chutian was competing in the Central Plains, he peeped around from time to time. Around the Eastern Han civilization, the population of Goryeo was less than a large state in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the population of Dongying was between one state and two states. Compared with Goryeo, Chutian believed that it was more difficult to conquer Dongying because it was separated by the sea.
The Yuan Dynasty expedition to Dongying suffered a great loss.
"Why does the Shimadzu family occupy Kyushu Island, and you can still be safe and have soldiers, horses, and castles?"
Mi Zhu didn't know enough details about the affairs between the famous names in the East.
Hirai Yoshimori replied: "It's very simple, if I don't take the initiative to surrender, it will take at least two or three years for the Shimadzu family to occupy Hirado Castle, and the big names of Honshu Island and Shikoku Island will take advantage of it. Moreover, The way to conquer the daimyo here is not necessarily to destroy the opponent, it is very different from yours.”
"I see." Mi Zhu asked again, "Now that you are a vassal of the Shimadzu family, is the trade treaty between us still valid?"
Mi Zhu, together with Xuzhou merchants, organized a fleet to transport goods worth hundreds of thousands of taels, and made countless profits at a time. If the trade partner of Hirado City was lost, the loss to Chutian would be more severe than the loss of gold mines.
Hirai Yisheng said: "Please rest assured, the trade between Quxian and Hirado City is still counted. I still control the territory of Hirado area. For the Satsuma samurai, I will take care of them, they dare not mess up. Come."
Mi Zhu is satisfied when he sees that Ping Yisheng intends to compromise.
At least Hirai Yoshimori is different from the Satsuma samurai who died. Hirai Yoshimori, as a player, knows the difference in national strength between the two sides. The name of Kyushu Island is not even the level of state shepherds in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Ping Yisheng has heard that Chu Zimou, the great prince of the Han Empire behind Mi Zhu, already owns almost three prefectures. That's three states!
Adding the entire four Eastern Yingdao islands together, are there the three state universities of Chu Zimou?
Ping Yisheng weighed it in his heart. He couldn't figure out whether it was Chu Zimou's territory or the four islands in the East, but there was no doubt that the man behind Mi Zhu was the Shimadzu family in Kyushu Island. Can't afford it, and as a loser, he can't afford it.
After Mi Zhu and the Xuzhou merchants were satisfied, Pingyi hosted a feast to entertain guests from the Eastern Han Dynasty, and invited a singer to greet Mi Zhu and others.
"General, a team of merchant ships from the Han Empire entered Hirado Castle, with at least 100 merchant ships, and the goods are worth hundreds of thousands of taels. If we can get this batch of goods, our Shimadzu family is more likely to go to Luo!"
The samurai who hit the wall at the pier came to Hirado Castle and met Shimazu Iehisa, the general of the Shimadzu family who conquered Hirado Castle.
"Ping Yisheng is a vassal, and he dares to trade with the Han Empire behind our backs. Every year, he gets a lot of tariffs from the trade. Others say that the Han Empire is strong, and I'm going to meet them for a while."
Shimadzu Jiajiu put down his wine bowl, wore the full armor of the world, and broke into the castle tower.
The samurai of Yoshimori Hirai broke into a cold sweat when they saw the fierce general from the Shimadzu family. Shimadzu Iehisa was a 15-year-old general who blocked the attack of 40,000 enemies with 3,000 defenders.
The wooden door was pushed open, and Shimadzu took a few samurai into the feast of Ping Yisheng and Xuzhou merchants.
The eyes of Mi Zhu and other Xuzhou businessmen fell on Shimadzu Jiajiu, and their faces were unhappy.
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, this was extremely rude.
The Shimadzu family looked at the frail Mi Zhu and Xuzhou businessmen for a long time with arrogant eyes.
"Please continue."
Hirao Yoshimori couldn't afford to offend both parties, so he quickly stopped Shimadzu's family, and whispered: "General, although I surrender to the head of the family, but Hirado Castle is my fief, you must not mess around!"
"Every year you earn at least 100,000 taels of silver from the trade of the Han Empire, and our Shimadzu family will also divide this gold and silver."
"You..." The strong Shimadzu clan in front of Yoshihisa Hirai gritted his teeth, "Yes, the Shimadzu clan can get 30% of it."
"Seventy percent!"
"General, don't go too far!"
The Shimadzu family's strength makes Hirai Yoshimori dissatisfied. The Shimadzu family wants to take 70% of the foreign trade revenue, and the remaining profit of Hirai Yoshimori is pitiful, but Hirai Yoshimori does not want the Shimadzu family to provoke and The war in the Eastern Han Dynasty was a dilemma.
"The one who tried to loot our caravan at the dock, but your Excellency? The Shimadzu family? Who gave you the courage to loot the merchant ships of our Han Empire?"
Mi Zhu took the initiative to provoke the Shimadzu family for a long time and was almost looted by the barbarians, which made Mi Zhu uneasy. If it wasn't for the lord's focus on fighting the Central Plains, he would have encouraged Chutian to destroy Dongying.
The arrogance in the eyes of the Xuzhou businessman is no less than that of Shimadzu Kahisa. Dongying's fierce opponents are also barbarians to them.
Shimadzu Kahisa was only eighteen years old at this time. Although Mi Zhu did not swear, he successfully provoked Shimadzu.
"This is Hirado, and the island of Kyushu is under the control of the Shimadzu family. If the ships of the Han Empire want to trade in Hirado, they must obey orders!"
Iehisa Shimadzu put his left hand on the hilt of the samurai sword and spoke inappropriately.
"Want to make our big man's envoy do his bidding?"
Businessmen in Xuzhou are really not afraid of Shimadzu's threat.
Just as the Shimadzu family had limited knowledge of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Xuzhou merchants also regarded the Shimadzu family as barbarian island owners.
"General please calm down."
Hirai Yoshimori was extremely flustered in his heart, and he couldn't help being flustered, because if he didn't handle it well, the two civilizations would break out into a national war centered on Hirado Castle!
This is not what Ping Yisheng wanted~IndoMTL.com~ Maybe the Xuzhou businessmen represented by Mi Zhu underestimated the strength of the Shimadzu family, but the Shimadzu family also underestimated the power behind Mi Zhu!
Mi Zhu and others have the confidence to take the initiative to provoke the Shimadzu family!
An envoy of the Han Dynasty dared to point at the king of the other party and cursed at him. What is a big name?
"I and the Shimadzu family share 50/50 of the proceeds from the trade with Xuzhou."
In order to prevent the two civilizations from going to war, Ping Yisheng voluntarily gave up some of his own interests.
Shimadzu Jiajiu was angered by the arrogant attitude of Mi Zhu and others. After receiving the promise of Hirai Yoshimori, he pushed back the three-inch samurai sword that had been drawn.
"This group of barbarians dares to provoke us. When the lord unifies the Central Plains, he must instigate... No, propose that the lord destroy the Shimadzu family and force them to lower tariffs."
Mi Zhu and the present Xuzhou businessmen whispered in private. As businessmen, they still wanted to reduce tariffs and gain more profits.
