Shimazu Kokusa was stunned when he heard Takawa Shizaemon's words, and frowned and asked, "Takawa-kun, are you actually selling iron cannons to the Uesugi family?"

Takawa Qizaemon continued to apologize, "Damn Mi Masan, Satsumatsu, it was indeed our fault this time. The Zheng family will give Satsumatsu some compensation!"

Shimazu Kokuha doesn't care about any compensation at all now, and just wants to figure out why the Zheng family gave Uesugi iron cannons.

Iron cannons are prohibited items. The Zheng family sold iron cannons to the Uesugi family, so what shameful transactions are there between the two parties?

Besides, hasn’t the Zheng family always been a good friend to me, Shimazu?

Shimazu Kokusa suddenly felt like he was being scumbag.

"Takawa-kun, let's talk about the compensation later!" Shimazu Kokusa said seriously: "Aren't we the best friends? You have to tell me why the Zheng family sold iron cannons to the Uesugi family?"

Recently, the Ming Dynasty imposed a "punishment of tribute" on Japan, causing turmoil among the Japanese.

The former Daming Ming, who had already given up, had long accepted the fact that he was under Tokugawa and was exploited by Tokugawa's family.

However, after the Tokugawa family had a feud with the Ming Dynasty, many foreign daimyos had some ideas in their minds, but the Tokugawa family was powerful and they dared not reveal it.

Takawa Qizaemon was the brother of Zheng Chenggong, the first vassal lord of the Ming Dynasty, the first vassal lord of the Yanping vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vassal vas

Now Takawa Shizaemon actually sells iron cannons to the Uesugi clan, which makes Shimazu Kokusa have to think more.

Takawa Qizaemon showed a smile on his face, straightened up, and changed into a embarrassed look, "It's better not to know this Satsumatsu."

The more he didn't say it, the more Shimazu Kokuha wanted to figure it out, "Takawa-kun, is the Uesugi family surrendering to the Ming Dynasty and helping the Ming Dynasty attack the Tokugawa family!"

After the Ming Dynasty broke off diplomatic relations with the Tokugawa family, the Tokugawa family has been very nervous recently and has strengthened its control over Daming. There are also rumors in various parts of Japan that the Ming Dynasty may attack Japan.

Takawa Shizaemon said helplessly: "Okay! I'm going to show up, Satsumatsu knows that because the Tokugawa family is unwilling to join the new tribute system and their relationship with the Ming Dynasty is destroyed, the Ming Dynasty hopes to find new forces in Japan and replace the Tokugawa family. The Ming Dynasty did not want to attack the Tokugawa family, but to support the Uesugi family and become the new general!"

Shimazu Kokuha's eyes shined, and his men made the Tokugawa family catch him. The iron cannon and the people were sent to Edo together, which was a stolen person.

Now the Tokugawa family has determined that the Shimazu family has purchased iron cannons from the Ming Dynasty and colluded with the Ming Dynasty to make mistakes. Shimazu Kokusa was yellow mud and she was not shit or shit, and she couldn't explain it clearly.

The Tokugawa family now sends people to ask him to go to Edo. Shimazu Kokusaki knew that if he went there, he would go there but not return and would become a hostage and prisoner of the Tokugawa family.

Before hearing the news that the Uesugi family bought the Ming Dynasty iron cannon, Shimazu Kokusa was about to admit his bad luck and go to Edo to apologize for his crimes. He explained that he hoped to protect the Shimazu family's ban. However, after hearing the explanation that the North supported Uesugi, Shimazu Kokusa changed his mind.

If only Shimazu family were there, then he would not be able to confront the Tokugawa family and could only pretend to be a grandson to live, but with Uesugi and Dai Ming, Shimazu family felt that they could take a gamble.

"Why is the Uesugi family?" Shimazu Kokuhi said suddenly: "After Uesugi Kenshin's death, the Uesugi family has been getting worse every year, and now its strength is far inferior to my Shimazu family. Takawa-kun, we are friends, why don't we choose Shimazu family?"

After learning that the Ming Dynasty supported the Uesugi family, Shimazu Kokusa felt an unbalanced in his heart. The Shimazu family did not get any benefits, but took the blame for arms smuggling, which was unfair.

Takawa Qizaemon said: "I didn't ask Satsumatsu before, but Satsumatsu was hesitant at that time, so the court turned to support Uesugi."

At the beginning, Shimazu Kokusa thought the Ming Dynasty wanted to attack Japan, so he naturally hesitated and did not want to help the Ming Dynasty rule Japan. Now that he learned that the Ming Dynasty wanted to support the new general, the situation was naturally different.

Shimazu Kokuha regretted it for a while, "Does the Shimazu family still have a chance?"

Takawa Qizaemon said: "As long as you are willing to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will welcome it. However, whether you can become a general depends on the Shimazu family itself."

Shimazu Kokuhi nodded and asked, "I understand. However, the Tokugawa family is strong and I don't know what support the Ming Dynasty can support the Shimazu family?"

Takawa Shizaemon: "If Satsuma Morima fell from the sea, with our relationship, I will provide the weapons needed to attack the Tokugawa family. In addition, Uesugi, Ida, and Maeda will also send troops to respond and join the army of the downfall."

Shimazu Kokuha fell into deep thought. If he went to Edo now, he would definitely be under house arrest by Tokugawa. If he did not go to Edo, the Tokugawa army would most likely launch an attack on the Satsuma clan.

Tagawa Qizaemon saw Shimazu Kokusa's expression and continued: "In addition, the Ming Dynasty can also support the three thousand elite Japanese soldiers of the Shimazu family!"

In the early days when Zhao Ming crossed the sea, his men recruited many Japanese soldiers and formed a Japanese army.

This Japanese army participated in the Qing war many times, but after Zhao Ming became the regent of the Ming Dynasty, he did not incorporate the Japanese army into the Ming army, but stayed in the Han Dynasty.

Shimazu Konoha heard the words and gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Shimazu family joins the army of downfall."

A few days later, a fleet arrived on the Satsuma Peninsula, and three thousand Japanese soldiers walked down from the ship.

This Japanese soldier did not wear Ming Dynasty armor, but replaced it with Japanese armor. He was the leader of the former Toyotomi family, the samurai Mori Katsushiro, a samurai master of Nagasaki Mori.

Most of the three thousand Japanese soldiers were descendants of Toyotomi Samurai who were implicated after the demise of the Toyotomi family.

Because they lost their vassal lords, they became ronin, went into exile to Nanyang, and became Zhao Ming's subordinates.

At this time, three thousand Japanese soldiers boarded Kyushu Island, Maori Katsukashi, Sakamoto Gintoki and others couldn't help but kneel on the beach, pick up the soil, and take a deep breath.

Edo Castle, Honmaru, Tensou Pavilion.

The fourth generation shogun Tokugawa Ietsunobu, Tokugawa, looked gloomy after hearing the spy's report.

Satsuma Masashima Tsukihiro indeed colluded with the Ming Dynasty. Not only did he refuse to go to Edo, but he also actively prepared for war in Satsuma and blatantly fought against the Tokugawa Shogunate.

In addition, the Ming Dynasty actually sent three thousand remnants of Toyotomi to land in Samo and form an inverted coalition.

This is already openly an enemy of the Tokugawa family. If the shogunate cannot pacify Satsuma, how can the Tokugawa family rule Japan?

As a country that had just fought the Warring States Period, the Tokugawa family's blood was still there, and Japan also had enough elite soldiers and was not afraid of the Ming army. Tokugawa's Izunobu had a gloomy face and said coldly: "It's over here, what else can I say? Let's start the war!"
