Chapter 523

ps: Don’t subscribe to this chapter for the time being. It’s just a waste of money. It is expected to be revised to normal in three days.

I started to feel cold at 4 o'clock on the 23rd, with a body temperature of 37 degrees + and feeling chills. I drank ginger + brown sugar water and soaked my feet with a Chinese medicine pack. The water temperature was higher than usual but I didn't feel it and it had no effect.

At 7:50 on the 23rd, my body temperature was 38.5. My whole body ached.

On the 24th, my body temperature was 39+. Even if I took medicine, it could only drop to about 38~38.5. It didn’t drop to 37 until the afternoon, and I felt pain all over my body.

On the 25th, fever subsided, slight cough, less phlegm, foot pain, left upper quadrant pain, stomach pain, stomachache, hand pain, headache, and eye pain.

On the 26th, severe cough, less phlegm, foot pain, stomach pain, headache, eye pain, and hand pain.

The above is the state from the onset to the present. Other symptoms have been changing. The only constant is that the body will always sweat. After a while, the body will be sweating. The short-sleeved clothes and long johns on the body will be wet and dry.

It was dry and wet, and the whole body was not completely disabled, but more than half of it was disabled.

PS: The news just now is that this thing has been renamed as Infection, Category B and B Pipe, and immigration control will be completely relaxed on the 3rd. Everyone, take care of yourself and take care of the elderly and children at home.

If you encounter a feudal lord or daimyo who is stronger, then you have to see whether the shogunate's fist is harder or that of the feudal lord. The daimyo's head is stronger. If the shogunate's fist is harder, then the shogunate can kill the disobedient feudal lord or daimyo.

, if the shogunate’s fist is not strong enough, then the shogunate’s orders are actually of little use.

Of course, these feudal lords, daimyo and the like cannot fully control their respective territories, because their so-called control is achieved by relying on samurai, and their ashigaru are more of a facade, and are far less important than

warrior.

As for those samurai... those who are raised by a master are called samurai, and those who are without a master are called ronin. The samurai must help the master maintain the rule of the local area, and the ronin who have lost their master will not care about the life and death of other people. They only care about the life and death of others.

Just take care of yourself.

To put it bluntly, the Japanese country, which has been blown away by countless incurable people in the sky and the earth, is actually similar to the situation in Tianzhu. Tianzhu has castes, and the Japanese country also has classes.

For example, why do those ronin samurai who lost their masters remain ronin instead of finding a job?

The reason is not that they don't want to find one, but that their samurai class stipulates that they can only be samurai. Even if they become ronin and their living conditions are worse than ordinary civilians, they are still not allowed to find other jobs.

It is precisely because of the crappy class structure of Japan that

Therefore, the ronin is also a huge factor of instability - now the ronin of the Japanese country dare not run to become a Japanese pirate, the number of supervisors needed by the Ming Dynasty is limited, and the servant armies of Tianzhu and the Ottoman side are all in the hands of the shogunate.

Unable to find an owner willing to take them in, these wanderers must of course find a way to support themselves.

Let’s take the simplest example: the Tojo family and the Mori family start the film. After the Maori family fails, the samurai who were originally attached to the Mori family may become ronin. They can neither find jobs nor have a source of income, and the only way to support themselves is

The best way is to go to the Tojo family's territory and rob those civilians and untouchables. Of course, the samurai raised by the Tojo family will also attack them, but because the ronin are too mobile, the samurai of the Tojo family will also attack them.

There was no way to clear them out, so the territory of the Tojo family naturally became less stable.

This also means that if Tokugawa Jiaqi wants to completely complete the blockade, he must first get rid of those ronin.

After getting a group of feudal lords and daimyo's promise to cooperate vigorously with the shogunate to complete the blockade, Tokugawa Ieki said solemnly: "Next, the shogunate will send troops to eliminate those ronin who are wandering around and causing trouble. I also ask for your support.

?”

The head of the Satsuma clan, Shimazu Hisamitsu, was the first to respond: "General, you can rest assured that our Satsuma clan will send as many samurai and ashigaru as possible within our capabilities to help the shogunate complete the elimination of those ronin."

Chikuzen, Chikugo, Bunzen, Bungo, Hizen, Tsushima, Hinata and other feudal lords also responded one after another, while the other feudal lords and daimyo couldn't help but frowned.

In Japan, vassals and vassals are different. For example, the Kanto vassals and Kinki vassals are relatively close to the Japanese capital, while the Ou vassals, Kyushu vassals, and Shikoku vassals are relatively far away.

This difference in geographical location naturally resulted in uneven development among the various vassals. Some vassals were relatively wealthy, while others were poor.

The difference in wealth and poverty will be directly reflected in the number of ronin in each domain.

The poorer the feudal clan is, the more rogues there are.

More importantly, the Satsuma clan, Chikuzen, Chikugo and other feudal lords actually have a common name: Kyushu clans.

These feudal clans were originally hanging out on Kyushu Island. The Satsuma clan even sent troops to capture Ryukyu, forcing the Ryukyu king to surrender to Japan and pay tribute.

However, with the strong rise of the Ming Dynasty, Kyushu Island was leased to the Ming Dynasty. The Kyushu vassals originally on Kyushu Island naturally had to move to another place. At that time, some of the better places near Kyoto were already called vassals. These Kyushu vassals were already called vassals.

All the vassals could only be moved collectively to Ezo.

To say that they are willing to do so, they are definitely not willing to give in. Shimazu Hisamitsu, Chikuzen, Chikugo and other feudal lords have not thought about resisting. At least they must find a good place, right?

Unfortunately, the Ming Dynasty did not give them time to resist. After the notice of leasing Kyushu Island was sent to the Japanese country, the Ming Dynasty East China Sea Fleet sailed directly to Kyushu Island, offering to help Shimazu Hisamitsu and others move.

Then Shimazu Hisamitsu and the others quickly moved to Ezo, completely giving up Kyushu Island.

In the Japanese country at that time, Ezo was a poor place. For the feudal lords who were moved to Ezo, the daimyo were as poor as dogs. At least their living standards plummeted, and the ronin in their respective domains also slowed down.

It has become much slower, and the lives of common people and untouchables in the domain have also become difficult.

But for the Kanto and Kinki vassals, it was definitely not a good thing to respond to Tokugawa Ieki's call - to wipe out those ronin, a large number of samurai and ashigaru would have to be sent, which meant that a large number of soldiers would be needed.

To spend, you need to spend real money to do it.

What would the shogunate think if they were asked to obey the orders of the feudal lord and ignore the Tokugawa family? They were dragging each other back and fighting to pay off the ronin who had a nest of chickens!

This was even more unacceptable to the feudal lords than directly using money to support Tokugawa Ieki!

Seeing that except for Satsuma, Chikuzen, Chikugo and other feudal lords, all the other feudal lords were looking at their noses with their eyes and their minds with their noses, Tokugawa Jiaqi secretly resented him while he was smiling but not smiling.

Said: "Actually, the shogunate will directly dispatch samurai and ashigaru to eliminate those ronin this time. There is no need for the feudal lords to send samurai and ashigaru. You only need to prepare some food and grass and send out a few guides.

"

When Tokugawa Ieki finished speaking, all the feudal lords present breathed a sigh of relief but at the same time couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

As we all know, apart from being lustful, Tokugawa Ieki's biggest problem was his greed for money. The problem of his sons and daughters' excessive amassing money can be said to be inherited from Tokugawa Ieki.

Now, such a greedy and lustful person did not choose to plunder all the feudal clans. Instead, he said that the shogunate would send people directly, and each clan only needed to "slightly" prepare some food and a few guides?

Just when the feudal lords and daimyo were hesitating secretly, Shimazu Hisamitsu glared at the feudal lords fiercely and cursed: "Baga! You damn red deer! Now you are thinking about a few samurai and foot soldiers."

When we are young? If we don’t cooperate with His Majesty the General to eliminate those rogues, and wait until Guangge Jianren wins, how can he let us go!"

Hearing Shimazu Hisamitsu's scolding, Matsudaira Nobunobu, the head of the Kawagoe Domain among the Kanto Musashi Domains, was about to have a fit, but he inadvertently saw Tokugawa Ieki glare at Shimazu Hisamitsu fiercely, and then his smile returned to normal.

A plain smile.

Matsudaira Nobu suddenly became alert in his confidence.

Shimazu Hisamitsu, who was already as poor as a dog in Ezo, still sent samurai and ashigaru to help the Tokugawa family. Now he was the first to jump out and scold all the feudal lords, all for the sake of the Edo shogunate.

He behaves like a loyal dog who doesn't hesitate to shed the last drop of his blood, but Tokugawa Ieqi seems to be unhappy?

After thinking about it secretly, a bright light suddenly flashed in Matsudaira Nobunobu's head - thinking at the best, Tokugawa Ieki may really want to wipe out those samurai, and the current performance between him and Shimazu Hisamitsu is just...

He is acting just to lure the feudal lords into taking the bait.

If you think about it in the worst possible way, maybe the real purpose of the Tokugawa family is not to completely wipe out those ronin, but to come to them, the feudal lords! Once the samurai and ashigaru of the shogunate enter the territory of each feudal in large numbers, what will happen later?

It’s hard to say what happened!

Thinking of this, Matsudaira Nobunobu's face couldn't help but become ugly. He glanced at Shimazu Hisamitsu and said loudly: "The Shimazu family leader is right. Now is an important moment for us to work together to overcome the difficulties.

We can no longer look forward and backward at this time!”

As Shimadzu Hisamitsu and Matsudaira Nobunobu expressed their opinions one after another, the other feudal lords suddenly had no way out. Whether they wanted to understand or not, they had to follow Shimazu Hisamitsu and Matsudaira Nobunobu to express their opinions.

They will each send samurai and ashigaru to help the shogunate eliminate those ronin.

Tokugawa Jiaqi was filled with secret hatred.

Just as Matsudaira Nobubu thought, the reason why Tokugawa Ieki proposed that the shogunate send samurai and ashigaru to wipe out those ronin was that on the one hand, he really wanted to wipe out those ronin, so as to avoid any accidents during the subsequent blockade.

.

But on the other hand, Tokugawa Ieqi is trying to coerce the princes to force the imperial court - if these two bastards, Guangge Jianhito and Kanmiya Huihito, dare to send people to do mischief on Tokugawa Ieqi's territory, Tokugawa Ieqiu will

Kawajia Qi was going to kill several minor feudal lords and daimyo of the Kinki clan first, causing chaos in the territory of Mitsukoshi and his son.

As for sending ninjas or getting some leprosy patients to cause harm to the territory of Mitsuo and his son, the Tokugawa family really didn't have such an idea for the time being.

Because the current situation is obviously dominated by Tokugawa Ieqi, and the possibility of successfully ascending to the throne is very high. Tokugawa Ieqi, who has begun to dream of becoming the leader of the country, naturally does not want leprosy to start spreading around Kinki. After all, no matter how poor he is,

The spread of diseases and leprosy is there, and no one can guarantee that they will be able to escape.

It's a pity that Tokugawa Ieqi's originally good plan was ruined by two weaklings, Shimazu Hisamitsu and Matsudaira Nobunobu.

Tokugawa Jiaqi secretly hated his heart, but forced a smile on his face: "Then it's settled. Those rogues who are causing harm to the place must be vigorously eradicated. If you are unable to do so, you can always

You can send someone to ask the shogunate for help, but don't force it."

After all the feudal lords thanked them willingly or unwillingly, Tokugawa Jiaqi changed the topic again and talked about his previous experiences in the Ming Dynasty: "You all know that Jiaqi has been to the Ming Dynasty before, and in the Ming Dynasty

Stayed for a long time.”

All the feudal lords and daimyo present could not help but be a little confused. They didn't know what the weakling Tokugawa Iakichi wanted to say.

Tokugawa Jiaqi, however, thought of himself and said: "During the Ming Dynasty, what Jiaqi felt most deeply was the knowledge of the people of the Ming Dynasty. Even if they were naive, they could still understand a few words, and even the Qing Dynasty

Most of the old people in that period could write their own names, let alone the young people."

The feudal lords and daimyo continued to be confused - the Ming Dynasty was the Shang Kingdom and the father of the Japanese Kingdom. Isn't this a matter of course?

The Tokugawa family looked at the confused feudal lords and daimyo, and couldn't help but sigh: "Our country of Japan has always been called the Little China of the East China Sea. Looking at the entire small broken world, it can even be called the Ming Empire.

His own son, as a result, there are very few literate people in the Japanese country, and there are illiterate and blind people everywhere. Isn’t this a shame for the Ming Dynasty’s kindness to our Japanese country?”

Shimazu Hisamitsu asked tentatively: "What does the general mean?"

Tokugawa Iashi did not directly answer Shimazu Hisamitsu's question. Instead, he clapped his hands and ordered toward the door: "Bring it here!"

After the waiter came in with a tray, Tokugawa Jiaqi pointed to the items in the tray and said: "This is the Japanese steam engine made by Sima Jianghan, the Japanese envoy to the Ming Dynasty, who imitated the Ming Dynasty steam engine. If we can imitate and produce more, we will

Japan can also have its own steam engine."

"It's a pity that Sima Jianghan is only one person after all. It's fine if he is asked to imitate a steam engine, but if he is asked to imitate more things, he will be beyond his capabilities."

"Therefore, our Japanese country still needs to increase the number of Ming envoys sent."

"The general I am telling you this today is to make you mentally prepared. Then you can each choose your own candidates to study in the Ming Dynasty. Each vassal family is limited to three people. In addition, two people will be selected from among the common people in your vassal.

, that is, each domain has a total of five places to send Ming envoys."

After Tokugawa Ieki finished speaking, the feudal lords and daimyo present suddenly became excited.
