130 The Battle of Qiantang

Another old man said: "More than that, they had dinner at a family at noon, and when they left, they killed their whole family, took blood and soaked wine, saying that it was a big body to nourish their bodies. The pregnant women in that family bet that they were a man or a woman, so they cut out the baby and verify it. There were also local rich families who were kidnapped and blackmailed by them. If the money they took out was not enough, they sawed the people into pieces and sent them back..."

Yang Ling's face turned blue and she said tremblingly: "Don't say it, don't say it anymore!"

The old man said to the previous person: "Sir, let's treat them as human beings, but they don't treat themselves as human beings. It's fine if they kill and set fire to such a fire. What do you think isn't a beast? They also like to capture women and pretty boys the most, and even I, an old man, can't even say anything about the ugly things they do!"

Yang Ling could no longer listen, so he turned around and walked towards the door. As soon as he walked to the door, Zhang Fubao in the room roared: "Kill them! The surname Yang, if you still want to keep them alive, I...I...I will draw talismans every day!"

Yang Ling paused, then he didn't look back and walked out of the hall quickly. In the west wing, several Japanese pirates were tied to pillars. Yang Ling walked in with a gloomy face. Zheng Baihu and several fanzis stood up and saluted, "I've seen the adults."

Yang Ling nodded and said, "Well, thanks to you today, remember to restrain the corpses of soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country. After returning to Beijing, I will definitely give a lot of pensions. Brothers who participate in the war today must be rewarded!"

After he said that, he turned his head and swept his eyes over the Japanese pirates one by one. Finally, he saw a man wearing Han women's clothes. His eyes touched him and hurriedly avoided him for a while. Yang Ling walked over and stopped in front of him and said, "Who are your leaders, how many people are there in total, where do they usually move?"

The man who knew Japanese language he found quickly repeated it in Japanese language. The man heard it without saying a word. Yang Ling smiled faintly and said, "Do you think we don't know what powerful means to deal with you? Do you pour boiled water?" His cold eyes surround the man and said, "If you pour boiled water on you, then use an iron brush to dip salt and brush it down layer by layer, what do you think? Or insert the red-burned iron rod directly into your thigh..."

Yang Ling said that the Jinyiwei used the means to deal with prisoners. Before the man next to him had translated, cold sweat oozed out of the man wearing a woman's clothes, and suddenly said hoarsely: "If I ask...I ask. Will the sir, will you spare me?"

Yang Ling was stunned, then furious and said sternly: "Are you a Han person?"

The man was trembling when he shouted, but he still said stubbornly: "I...I can't live, so I've just walked on this road. They are all real Japanese people and they can't help me. I'm willing to say it."

Yang Ling's eyes fell on the woman's light green shirt on him, and he twisted a corner of the shirt and asked, "You snatched this dress back? Her master...what is that girl?"

The man's face changed. The clothes were peeled off from a young woman when he was robbed in Fujian last year. The woman... that woman..., he remembered the last horrible appearance of the beautiful young woman, and couldn't help but have a clever cold war.

Seeing that he was stuttering and lying, Yang Ling suddenly turned around and calmed down his thoughts of strangling him to death, and then said one by one: "You say it, I will let you die quickly! This is the only condition! You have no second choice!"

The man was stunned for a moment, chewed Yang Ling's words again, and then realized what he said, and his eyes couldn't help but look in fear. Yang Ling said coldly: "Have you decided? I don't have to know your situation. If I don't say it, I won't give you a second chance!"

Seeing Yang Ling walking step by step towards the door, the bandits who had tormented people with all kinds of strange methods finally couldn't help but shout: "Sir, stay, I will do it, I will do it all, I will only ask you to leave me a whole body."

The man told them all the things he knew. In fact, his intelligence was not very valuable. These Japanese pirates were wandering everywhere and had no fixed residence. The Ming Navy currently wanted to go out to sea to encircle and suppress the enemy, and there was no strength. If you want to deal with them, you should wait until they come to the inland robbery before imposing severe punishment. And what is expected is: they will definitely come!

However, Yang Ling unexpectedly heard more about the situation in Japan from this person. The shogunate was declining and could no longer control the daimyos in various places. The daimyos and samurai leaders from all over the country were very eager to trade with the Ming Dynasty to strengthen their own strength.

Some of these forces had secret channels to smuggle from the Ming Dynasty, so they also opposed the rampant Japanese pirates to avoid affecting their business. Moreover, these official smuggling teams not only secretly traded with merchants along the Ming Dynasty, but also had a sea-trading line with Luzon and Nanyang. These information is not available for the time being, but may not be useless in the future. Yang Ling secretly remembers it in his heart.

What surprised him even more was that the general currency of Japan was actually the copper coins of the Ming Dynasty. Japan had tried to make its own currency, but the copper coins they made were of extremely poor quality and they were worn and broken in no time, becoming a pile of broken copper and iron. Therefore, they could only use the currency of the Ming Dynasty as the general currency of the Japanese country.

After the Ashikaga family no longer surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, the two countries cut off trade. Japan urgently needed a large amount of copper coins, but could not obtain them. It was simply unimaginable that a country had no currency, so the official could only smuggle or even act as pirates.

Yang Ling was stunned for a while after hearing this. He did not expect that the Chinese currency could be completely used as a replacement for the currency of another country. The hatred and hatred of the inhuman Japanese pirates did not make him lose his mind so much that he believed that blindly killing the poke was the only way to completely solve this group of maritime disasters.

Yang Ling thought to himself: The Japanese pirates on the sea must be fought, and they must find a way to wipe out them. However, the root cause of this group of disasters will not be eliminated. If this group is eliminated, a new group will be produced. For long-term stability, it is necessary to clear and block the block and go hand in hand.

He was not sure about asking the emperor to trade Japan after returning to Beijing, because he had no confidence to suppress the resistance from the court, especially the three ministers of the cabinet. It seemed that in history, Liu Jin was the dominant family when he was in power. If he was the master of the court, this guy who was ignorant and could only make money would not be a resistance, but he did not remember exactly when that happened, and he had no time to wait.
