Chapter 1490 I think you are a little selfish

Facts have proved that the strong are respected.

Before the powerful combat power shown by Dahua, the guardian daimyos of Kyushu did not have any unyielding intentions. When Matsuura Kyoshu rushed to Tangjin to surrender, other daimyos such as Ryuzoji Nobutaka were not willing to fall behind. Although they were a little worried and did not go to Tangjin in person, they all sent their retainers to come.

Tang Jin, the prince is outside the headquarters.

When the envoys from various countries in Kyushu met, they all greeted each other, and they were all on the same island in the past. Japan is an island country, which is relatively more closed.

The wealthy families on each island are basically ruled for generations. Although there are also power changes, they are all about that and some families.

"Let me reveal, are you going to surrender to the country you build in the future?"

"Don't you Feiqianguo plan to surrender?"

“Each one another.”

Those who represent the daimyos were all famous masters, and in fact these people were also considered daimyos. Although Japan now promulgated the tramyos system, the manor system was implemented before. The nobles and landlords occupied the land. On the surface, these lands were owned by the Japanese imperial court. They were just agents and signed in the Japanese letters, becoming famous domains.

The owner of Mingtian is the master, with the nickname and the big name. The nickname is the little landlord and the wealthy self-cultivated farmer. The big name is the nobles and local tyrants.

After the founding of the Lingjing Kingdom, the Emperor also granted the title of the Daming Lord, the most powerful local area, as the guardian position.

Just as the guardian of the Himemaki Kingdom was the Daming Lord Ryuzaoji Nobutaka, but the Daming Lord of the Himemaki Kingdom was not only the Daming Lord Ryuzaoji Nobutaka and Matsuura Qingxiu, but they were also the Daming Lord. The Ouchi family and others were also the Daming Lord, but they did not have a guardian position. Therefore, in name, the Taimaki Kingdom was managed by the Daming Lord Ryuzaoji Nobutaka instead of the imperial court.

But just as the Japanese court cannot effectively control these guardian daimyos, these guardian daimyos cannot effectively control their own domestic territory.

Below various countries, there are also sub-counties controlled by the great families. These great names are only nominally obeying commands and taking the lead in internal affairs, military, public security, etc.

Even these famous masters of the county did not completely control their own county territory, and there were still many small wealthy families in their territory.

The entire Japanese Kingdom was controlled by the Emperor's royal family, court, ministers, and other countries below, as well as Daming of the county, as well as the local tyrants.

This is a rather loose relationship between superiors and subordinates, and it is common for frequent wars between countries, counties and families.

But sometimes, compromise with each other can maintain a balance.

The daimyos from all countries that came to visit were actually not entirely representing the protection of daimyo. They also had their own interests. When the Japanese imperial court was unable to resist Dahua, they also began to find a way out for their families.

The best way out is of course to decline China.

A group of daimyos exchanged views with each other and discussed what conditions to propose to Dahua.

The most talked about is that he envied Matsuura Qingxiu, the old thief who acted the fastest and took a big advantage. Among all the names of Kyushu, the territory of the Songqing family is not the largest and the strength is not the strongest, but because he started early, he got excellent treatment.

A group of daimyos had a great time talking, and they all felt that even Matsuura Qingxiu could get a brigade commander. Who should not get better treatment for these daimyos and their guardian daimyos?

"What is above this brigade commander?" asked Daming.

"I heard that the division commander came, and there seemed to be a commander of the army, the commander of the army, the commander of the north and south yamen, etc." said a famous name from Feihou Kingdom.

"The brigade commander can command five thousand troops, so how many troops can the division commander lead?"

"It seems like it's about 15,000 or 20,000."

"So much?" the daimyo was amazed.

There were 20,000 soldiers. Last time, more than 60 countries in the entire Japanese country sent troops together, they only raised 100,000 troops. On average, one country sent less than 2,000 troops, such as Feiqian Country, there were eleven sub-counties below, and one sub-county sent less than 200 troops.

Although the troops sent last time were not all the troops of various countries and counties, there were very few regular soldiers in Japan, all of them were peasants, and they were summoned in battle. In normal times, each family had some guards.

According to the tradition of Japan, except for slaves, all the strong men have the responsibility and obligation to become the targets of recruitment. Then these soldiers must supply and support themselves, which is somewhat similar to the soldiers in the palace, but not completely similar.

This is even more a heavy military service. These soldiers, mainly composed of farmers, are collectively called defense against people in Japan. Defense against people is not a standing army, it is very irregular, and it is a heavy burden. Farmers can only exempt military service by paying heavy taxes.

When fighting, farmers have to be recruited, which will inevitably affect production. Therefore, in many cases, the Japanese wars are smaller in scale and shorter in time, which is also due to these reasons.

Twenty thousand soldiers, even for a guardian Daming, is a number of soldiers they cannot recruit. Even if the soldiers can bring their own supplies, Daming has to bear a lot. Recruiting 20,000 soldiers will not only delay production in the territory, but will also directly drag them down.

"If this is an army, how many people will it take? The division has 20,000 troops, and the army cannot be 50,000 or 60,000, which army can not be 100,000, how many people can be 100,000, and how many people can be 100,000,000?"

"The Great Hua Empire has north and south yamen and naval yamen, and the three yamen have a total of 600,000 soldiers, and a permanent army."

A Dahua officer came over with a smile and stood there and said to the fussy daimyos.

"The sixteen guards in the South Ya, the ten troops in the North Ya, each army is 20,000, and the navy is 80,000. The organization of the Imperial Army is slightly different from the organization of Dahua soldiers and horses. Now the Imperial Army has only one brigade number, with a 5,000 troops, and is under the jurisdiction of the Third Regiment and the Ninth Battalion."

I heard that the Imperial Army had only one brigade, but these famous men were surprised and a little disappointed. They thought they could all be brigade commanders, division commanders or even army commanders.

"What is this general?"

"I'll introduce myself, I'll go to Liu Rengui."

"Liu Rengui? The one who defeated Ma Hai and wiped out our Yamato 50,000 fleet in one battle?"

"Sea God Liu Rengui!"

A burst of exclamations rang out.

Liu Rengui's name is so famous. Because of the battle against Ma Hai, the Japanese even awarded Liu Rengui the god of the sea and directly called him the god of the sea.

This title made Liu Rengui feel embarrassed. Although he seems to have a great record against Ma Hai Zhan, in the military, people actually don’t take this naval battle seriously, because anyone who wants to fight this battle can achieve such results.

Eighteen battleships of first and second level, whoever comes will win.

"Look for a long time, long time!"

"I'm so excited to see the real person of the Sea God today."

When a group of daimyos saw Liu Rengui, they were as excited as they saw their idols. They surrounded him and asked about this and that, and they were almost over to come forward to ask for autographs.

Liu Rengui originally thought that when Japanese daimyos heard about his name, they would glar at him. Who knew that they still admired him so much.

It's so cheap, it's so cheap.

No wonder it is said that the Japanese tend to be abused. This is true. They beat them so badly, but they all obeyed him.

"Everyone, Liu, on behalf of the Crown Prince, came to meet you on behalf of His Highness and listen to your thoughts on protecting Daming for Jiuzhou."

"Does Your Highness the Crown Prince wait?"

"That's right, I'll come from all over the country, will the Crown Prince not see me?"

Liu Rengui haha.

The Crown Prince had seen Matsuura Qingxiu before, but he only bought horse bones with a fortune. It was not that horse bones could really be worth a fortune. They were just daimyos in each county. To put it nicely, daimyos, but to put it bluntly, they were just county magistrates.

The dignified crown prince is not something you can see just by wanting to see.

If the guardian Daming of Jiuzhou came together, maybe we would meet him together. Now we will come to the county Daming of the Crown Prince so that he would not surrender his own identity to meet them.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is still in charge of official duties. If you have anything to say, you can say it to someone, and you can turn back and tell the Crown Prince."

A group of people still want to talk too much.

Liu Rengui coughed and glanced at him.

The eyes of the blade swept over, and the group of daimyos shut up honestly.

"Come one by one."

The guardian envoy of the Hokkaido Kingdom, Yoshitaka Ouchi, took a step forward, "I am Yoshitaka Ouchi, the retainer of the guardian of the Hokkaido Kingdom, and also a daimyo of the Kolai County. I came to pay homage to the Crown Prince of Dahua on behalf of the head of the family. My head is willing to join Dahua, but I hope to get the guarantee of the crown prince."

A military officer brought a chair to Liu Rengui.

He sat down and raised his legs.

He asked lightly, "What guarantee?"

Yoshitaka Ouchi was stunned for a moment.

"It is to ensure that Dahua will not invade Feiqianguo..."

"stop."

Liu Rengui reached out and called out Yoshitaka Ouchi.

"What's your name?"

"Yitaka Ouchi, Taichung, Gaolai County, Taichung, my Danei family was once the guardian of Taichung..."

Liu Rengui interrupted him, "Okay, there is no need to say that, I am not interested in listening to the glorious history of your Ouchi family, Ouchi Yoshitaka, right? I think you have some misunderstandings. My Dahua came here this time, not to be a visit. To be blunt, we are here to conquer."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince gave you a month's deadline to surrender. We will not give you any guarantees such as non-infringement. If you submit to Dahua within a month, you will be under Dahua's rule in the future. As long as you pay the conquest tax, you will be the people of Dahua in the future, and your private property will be protected by Dahua's laws."

"Do you understand?"

Yoshitaka Ouchi was stunned. What was going on?

"But, but Matsuura Kyosuki joins Dahua, he is not treated like this."

Liu Rengui smiled, "That's because Matsuura Qingxiu is the first to surrender. First, there must be some reward. As for you, if you missed the first place, even if you were second, there would be no reward. You can do whatever you want, surrender, pay conquering taxes, and then hand over the military power and governing power."

Yoshitaka Ouchi stood there and didn't know how to respond, and the other daimyos were all stunned on the spot.
