Yamamoto was on his battleship, furiously looking at his opponent.

They had surrounded the Ming merchant ship, and even four warships were almost leaning forward. The rest had to throw a hook and climb up to cut off the head of the Ming people, but unfortunately, his sailors were kept shooting like dogs. The condescending Ming people took the method of round-fire, hundreds of muskets kept spraying bullets downwards. The brave Japanese warriors screamed and fell down in the sound of gunfire. A few of them climbed up before they could swing their knives, and then they were stabbed directly by guns. What's even more terrifying was that the Ming people took out a small hammer and threw it directly on their ship with smoke. Then half of the sailors in the boat were bombed.

This is not a merchant ship, it is like a castle!

"Take the turmeric oil!"

He yelled gritting his teeth.

Throwing the turbulent oil bottle means burning the ship, and the precious cargo on the ship can only sink to the bottom of the sea. If he doesn't throw it away, he probably won't be able to take the ship if he doesn't die.

"Shimazu family members!"

Suddenly a soldier beside him shouted.

More than a dozen ships appeared behind them. Although there was no sign on the ship, you don’t have to guess that this was the Shimazu family who came to pick up the goods.

"Don't worry about them, will the Shimazu family members dare to rebel?"

Yamamoto said contemptuously.

He is the navy of the shogunate. If the Shimazu family dares to attack them, it is clearly intended to rebel. Of course, the other party did not indicate his identity, but it is close to Kagoshima and is the territory of the Shimazu family. The shogunate army arrested smugglers and was attacked by unidentified armed forces here. The Shimazu family could not escape the blame no matter what. The shogunate would still punish him and at least have to cut off the Shimazu family's fiefdom. As long as Shimazu Tsunaki's people are not stupid, they would not do this.

However, he was wrong, he was deeply wrong.

Just as two Japanese sailors bravely threw out the turbulent bottle with Ming people bullets and when a fire ignited on the starboard side of the Fushun, a shell suddenly hit the mountain itself. The broken wood aroused by the solid shells beat the sailors beside him into a terrible grief.

"Bad bastard, are they crazy?"

He looked at the flames that were spewing out of the Shimazu family's ships in amazement.

Of course it's crazy.

When he saw a fire on the Fushun, the little dog who came to receive the goods was red. This was a worth of 50,000 guan! The Shimazu family fiefdom was only 770,000 guan, which was less than one million guan. In other words, this was equivalent to one-twentieth of the Satsuma family's output value in a year. If something happened, the lord had to chop himself into meat sauce when he went back. He was crazy and he didn't care about the shogun army, but even the shogun army would fight. More than a dozen ships that received the goods immediately rushed into Yamamoto's fleet.

Because of their participation in the war, the sailors on Fushun had greatly reduced their pressure and quickly threw out the latest rubber water pipes. The water press on the rack pumped water and quickly extinguished the starboard flame.

The shogunate naval army, which had already suffered heavy casualties, was quickly destroyed by the two sides. The remaining non-dead people were captured, including Yamamoto, who was broken by bullets, and then was pressed on the deck by two Shimazu family members. The little dog exchanged glances with several subordinates, and then pulled out the knife. However, when it was about to cut it down, it was stopped by the owner of the Fushun ship who was watching the fun.

"Bundle it tightly, just give it to me!"

He said sinisterly.

Well, all 80 prisoners, including Yamamoto, were tied up and then threw them into the cabin of Fushun. As for their destination, of course, they were a construction site or mine in the Ming Dynasty.

The heavily injured Fushun completed the transaction quickly and did not dare to delay the return as quickly as possible. Five days later, the scarred merchant ship appeared in Nanjing. Of course, the version of the incident had changed at this time, and it became a legal merchant ship Fushun was intercepted by the Japanese navy on the way to Nagasaki, and boarded the ship to blackmail. After being satisfied, he saw the ship full of cargo and attempted to rob. The crew of the Fushun rose to defend himself and finally relied on abandoning all the cargo and reducing weight to escape the pursuit. However, not only did all the cargo be lost, but ten sailors were also killed, more than 20 were injured, and almost burned by the Japanese sailors.

Then this incident caused a stir in the Ming Dynasty.

By the way, the people of the Ming Dynasty were already very clear about the strength of their country. All the Portuguese Dutch were beaten to the ground, and the Tartars were so strong that they were still caught and the emperor was skinned. It would be rare for us to not bully people with such strength. A small Japanese country actually dared to kill our people and rob our boats. This is to go to heaven!

Fight, beat me!

Then almost all newspapers in the Ming Dynasty had the same argument.

Crime!

Defeat Japan!

Especially at present, the main part of the Ming Dynasty is actually Jiangsu and Zhejiang, especially in southern Zhejiang, which are the core areas of the Ming Dynasty. This place has no good impression of the Japanese people. The main disaster of the Japanese pirates back then was this area, which was borne the original sin. Can this be done without fighting?

And it's not just that.

In recent years, merchants from Jiangsu and Zhejiang have already passed the experimental field of Goryeo and understood what a commodity dumping means, that is, a treasure that eats grass and squeezes out milk. The people of Goryeo eat braised vegetables, use their own hard-earned money to buy cotton cloth and candy from the Ming merchants, and even needles, threads, brains, rouge and water powder have to be purchased from the Ming merchants. Such a cow is insignificant, and a country is full of such cows, which is a treasure pot. Relying on many Ming merchants in Goryeo, many Ming merchants live a beautiful life of spending money like soil.

But unfortunately there is only one such good place.

Fortunately, the Ming army recently surrendered Annan and there were also spice islands, which immediately made a large number of Ming merchants pounce on them like flies, but this is far from enough, especially a country that is close to them, which has not become their cows. This country is Japan. Although there is a smuggling business, it is not the same level as Japan's full opening. However, the Tokugawa shogunate has always insisted on closing the country, and even the Nagasaki trade has set limits every year, so those Ming merchants have long been unable to bear this.

Now they have delivered it to their door.

In addition to merchants, officials and military officials from all over the country were also indignant about this.

The reason is very simple.

The ceremony for Emperor Yang's ascension to the throne is imminent. At this time, the Japanese acts are tantamount to provocation. At this time, they must be beaten. Only by beating them can Emperor Yang be happy and show the majesty of the Celestial Kingdom.

As a result, they were never keen on foreign wars, and even had a lot of criticism from all walks of life in the Ming Dynasty, which last time the Ming army went on a quest to attack Japan, this time they spoke in unison. For the sake of feelings, the merchants, to open the country's doors, officials, and to make achievements, there were shouting and beatings across the country. Even the eunuchs who were resting in the palace were shouting in teahouses to punish the Japanese. This was shocking for the Chinese folk customs.

Then the rest depends on Emperor Yang's decision.

"Order the Beiyang Fleet to go and give me some advice first, don't say we didn't give them a chance."

Yang Feng said.

"So what about the requirements?"

Liang Hong said.

"The first apologizes. The Japanese royal family must send princely members to apologize. I don't care about the messy relationship between their shogunate and the royal family. Since the theoretical supreme ruler of Japan is the king, I must find the king of Japan in this matter and warn them that there is only the king of Japan in front of me, so don't anger me with the emperor who used to usurp the throne!"

Yang Feng said.

This question must be understood!

Japan is only a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, so there is no emperor. The emperor is the one who usurped the throne. He closed the door and was too lazy to care about it, but he dared to take it in public and just wanted to fight.

"Second, of course, it is to compensate for the losses and punish the murderer. They have to compensate for all the losses of Fushun, ships, cargo, treatment of the wounded, pensions for the deceased, and mental damage expenses.

Third, switch, open all coastal ports, allow Ming merchants to trade freely, and allow Ming merchants to purchase industries. In short, Goryeo and Annan treat Ming merchants as well. In addition, the Ming Dynasty will send Prime Ministers to Japan to Japan. The people of Ming Dynasty enjoy extraterritorial legal rights in Japan, which is also to avoid similar tragedies in the future.

Fourth, arrest the Dutch people on the island and hand it over to us. As a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty and the Netherlands, it was inexplicable that the Dutch people were allowed to live during this Ming and Dutch war. Is there any other country in the Celestial Empire? I really think I don’t know if I am far away?"

Yang Feng continued.

Out of the island is a small artificial island that was reclaimed from Nagasaki, which is only two football fields, but it is currently the only place east of the Strait of Malacca where the Dutch flag is hung. There is a special place for Dutch merchants to live in by Japan. Now all the Dutch strongholds on the Spice Islands have been taken down by Luo Zhang's expeditionary force, and there is only the only Dutch settlement area left in the entire East Asia. This time, I just took the grass and beat rabbits to clean up together.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid they won't agree to this, Sanliangzi."

Liang Hong said.

This is for sure. It should be fine to let the Tokugawa family send someone to apologize, but it is completely impossible to let the Emperor send someone to apologize.

As for the third article, it is even more impossible. Tokugawa Tsunayoshi's purpose was to cut off trade between the two sides, prevent Japan from becoming a cow from the Ming Dynasty like Goryeo, and prevent domestic precious metals from flowing out continuously. In the past, there was only Nagasaki, and smuggling was just a few rat holes. Even if the outflow was slow, the third article was to blow up the entire dam, so that Japan's wealth would surge out directly.

Tokugawa Tsunayoshi wouldn't be so stupid.

"Then let them agree!"

Yang Feng said domineeringly.

"Transfer my order, all the Beiyang fleet will be dispatched, target Edo, and order all the warships to paint me with black paint!"
Chapter completed!
