- Emperor Mingzheng still made the final decision:
Abdicate!
She knew that she could no longer compete with Ding Yunyi with her own strength. The whole of Japan had fallen into his hands. What role could a palace play?
Abdicating is the last and wisest choice.
Those veterans came to the palace one after another, wanting to see their emperor, but they were ruthlessly blocked by the Huben guards standing at the entrance of the palace.
The safety of the "Emperor" comes first. No one can guarantee whether there will be an assassin hidden among those who meet the Emperor.
This is the only answer given by the soldiers of Huben Guard to these Japanese
The sixth day of June in the thirteenth year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty was an auspicious day, but it was definitely not like this for Emperor Meisheng. On this day, she officially informed Ding Yunyi that she had made up her mind to abdicate.
Ding Yunyi welcomed her decision.
The news finally spread Those so-called nobles in Japan suddenly became panicked. Many of them cried bitterly and expressed that they absolutely could not accept the decision of His Majesty the Emperor. The decision was entirely due to the threat from the Ming Dynasty people.
But most Japanese civilians have no time to pay attention to this.
Indeed, the Emperor is also sacred in their hearts, but now they are more concerned about how to rebuild their destroyed homes.
If a person doesn¡¯t even have a home, how can he care about any major national affairs? This is true in every country.
The most concerned ones are Japan¡¯s so-called four nobles. They will never allow the terrible scene of the emperor¡¯s abdication to occur. This is not only a shame for Japan. And it will also completely shake their status.
In the home of Minamoto Yoshitaka, the four nobles had a rare gathering At this moment, they temporarily abandoned their grudges and their unhappiness with each other.
Japan and its own interests come first.
"I think you all already know the current situation." As the head of these nobles, Minamoto Yoshitaka slowly said: "The fate of Japan is already in danger, and it depends on us now. His Majesty is locked up in the palace, and those The hateful Ming Dynasty people are guarding His Majesty. No one can see it, and all the decisions made by His Majesty are shamefully threatened!"
Ping Masangari immediately said: "Yes, there is a maid who was expelled from the palace. I found her and asked her about the situation in the palace. The maid told me that His Majesty the Emperor has been placed under house arrest. Except for her personal My maid, Asakusa, is inaccessible to anyone. I think your majesty¡¯s situation is already very precarious.¡±
Everyone was silent there, unable to say a word.
Shame, this is Japan¡¯s biggest shame! The supreme monarch of a country has been imprisoned, while her ministers can only sit here and do nothing.
Is there anything more helpless and sad than this?
"Let's rescue His Majesty!" Fujiwara Shinnao, who had a bad temper, said loudly: "Gather all the strength we can muster to rescue His Majesty from the palace. For Japan, I am not afraid of having my head cut off by the enemy's sword!"
"Why are you still silent until now, Tachibana-sama?" At this time, Minamoto Yoshitaka turned his attention to Tachibana Koichi.
Although the Orange family is no longer as powerful as before, after all, they were once a powerful aristocracy. It still has great influence in Japan.
Only then did Tachibana Koichi speak slowly: "It is our responsibility to rescue His Majesty the Emperor, but we are not reckless. How many guards are there in the palace? I think everyone has seen the ferocious firearms of the Ming army. Can we use our own Have you ever thought about using your flesh and blood to resist the enemy¡¯s muskets?¡±
No one has an interface.
Everyone knows the firearms of the Ming army, they are really terrifying.
Kyoto was once extremely strong in the eyes of the Japanese. Under the crazy artillery fire, it collapsed without any resistance.
If you just use your samurai sword and flesh and blood to resist the enemy's firearms, it is no different from committing suicide.
So when Tachibana Takaichi said this, everyone didn't know what to do.
"There is only one way." Tachibana Koichi said slowly: "I'm afraid everyone knows about Taro Matsumoto, who is a shameless traitor to Japan. We also know about Nobuyoshi Akamine, who shamelessly betrayed the general. But I think, Since the people of the Ming Dynasty can bribe our people, why can¡¯t we bribe the people of the Ming Dynasty?¡±
??These words made these nobles' eyes light up.
Yes, everyone is valuable. If you can pay enough money, it is possible to buy them. The people of the Ming Dynasty could bribe the Japanese, why couldn't the Japanese bribe the people of the Ming Dynasty?
Yuan Yizhong immediately asked: "Where can we find such people from the Ming Dynasty? After all, there is not much time left for us."
"I have found it."
Tachibana Koichi¡¯s simple words made everyone suddenly see great hope
"I have found it!" Tachibana Koichi repeated what he had said before: "But the other party's asking price is very high."
"What can he provide us?" Yuan Yizhong asked worriedly.
"Everything we want." Tachibana Koichi replied calmly: "Muskets, gunpowder, and even all the activities of His Majesty the Emperor in the palace. You may not know that once His Majesty the Emperor decides to abdicate, he will immediately was moved away from the palace, and I have already obtained the route initially planned by the Ming Dynasty people."
This news once again stimulated everyone present.
If it is true as Tachibana Koichi said, then there is hope for everything
"Who is this person?" Yuan Yizhong's breathing even became rapid.
"This man's name is Song Baocai, and he is a guard among the people of the Ming Dynasty." Tachibana Koichi paused and continued: "He originally made great contributions, but he never got the rewards he deserved. Therefore, he was full of unwillingness. I successfully lured him with a price of one thousand taels of gold, and he was willing to provide us with the help we needed!"
Ping Jiangcheng suddenly asked: "Master Ju, it's not that I don't believe you, but I'm very surprised that the Ming army didn't enter the city for a long time. How did you find this person in such a short time?"
Everyone¡¯s eyes fell on Tachibana Koichi
Tachibana Koichi sighed softly: "If you adults don't mind, I want to see someone for you. He has been waiting outside for a long time."
Source Yoshitaka nodded.
And when that person came in, the impatient Fujiwara Shinnao couldn't help shouting: "You traitor who betrayed the general!"
Chifeng is announced! The person who came in turned out to be Chifeng Xuancheng!
Chifeng Xuancheng¡¯s face turned red. He stood there motionless, allowing Fujiwara Shinnao to scold him.
Tachibana Koichi stopped Fujiwara Shinnao, and then said slowly: "Yes. This man is indeed a shameless traitor. But his willingness to surrender is actually very simple. He has a wife, he has children, and he does not want to lose everything he has gained. Right, Chifeng-kun?"
Chifeng Xuancheng suddenly fell to his knees on the ground with a plop: "Master Ju, please, please don't hurt my wife and children. No matter what you want me to do, I will agree to you."
In an instant, everyone understood why Akamine Nobuchi would change his attitude again to work for Tachibana Koichi Tachibana Koichi just used the same method. It's just that I caught Akamine Nobucheng's weaknessChimine Nobucheng betrayed the General in order to protect his family, but now, Chimine Nobucheng's family must have fallen into the hands of Tachibana Koichi
"Don't worry, as long as you serve us wholeheartedly and try your best to atone for your sins. I will not harm your family." As expected, just as everyone thought, Tachibana Koichi's words confirmed their guesses: "But , I don¡¯t want to see betrayal again, can you do what I say, Chifeng-kun?¡±
"Yes, I will do everything you say." Chifeng Xuancheng, who was kneeling on the ground, murmured.
Tachibana Koichi smiled and handed over the right to ask questions to Minamoto Yoshitaka. Minamoto Yoshitaka's heart is full of gratitude to Tachibana Koichi. If it weren't for Tachibana-sama, they would still be helpless until now.
He asked Chifeng Xuancheng to stand up: "Despicable traitors are treated with nothing but death, but Japan still needs you for the time being. What kind of person is Song Baocai?"
"I surrender to Song Baocai." Chifeng Xuancheng did not dare to pause for a moment: "He followed Ding Yunyi earlier and made a lot of achievements. But until now, he is only a small defender. Those young people who entered Huben Guard later than him were promoted one by one. This made Song Baocai feel very unfair. When I surrendered, I gave him all my belongings in order to save my life. I soon gained his trust, and he even drank with me and vented his inner dissatisfaction. After Mr. Ju found me, I thought of him first. One thousand taels of gold, Song Baocai. Agree to our request"
Source Yizhong slightly clicked?.
A person who is dissatisfied with his own situation can easily be bribed, not to mention that dazzling one thousand taels of gold?
Minamoto Yoshitaka thought for a moment: "Can he get a musket?"
"Yes, he can get the musket." Chifeng Xuancheng said hurriedly: "There is a special organization in the Huben Guards, called the Logistics and Supply Office, which is specially used to ensure the supplies of the Huben Guards, and Song Baocai is responsible for this. They have their own way of swapping weapons without anyone noticing, and then resell the swapped weapons to us.¡±
"My lords, what do you think?" Yuan Yoshizhong did not make up his mind easily, but threw the question to his companions.
"What are you waiting for? This is our best chance!" Fujiwara Shinnao said without thinking.
Minamoto Yoshitaka set his sights on Taira Masashige. He knew that among his people, this man had the smartest mind.
Ping Jiangcheng knew what the other party meant, and after pondering for a long time, he said: "If that Song Baocai is really willing to assist us, that will be our best chance, but we cannot easily believe that the people of the Ming Dynasty are very cunning. I suggest that we must Take the risk to meet Song Baocai, find out his true purpose, and see if he is really willing to help us."
"Just follow Lord Ping's advice." Yuan Yizhong said with satisfaction: "Chifeng Xuancheng, go find that Song Baocai and tell him that tonight, right here, we need to see him!"
"Here?" Fujiwara Shinnao immediately became anxious: "Master Minamoto, if this is a trap by the other party, then all of us will be caught by the Ming Dynasty people! Who else will rescue Your Majesty?"
"Fujiwara-sama is also using his brain." Minamoto Yoshitada smiled slightly: "But there is no safe place except here. If there is really a danger, let me bear it alone. Tonight and When we meet each other, Master Ping, if you are not afraid of death, please stay here with me."
"I'm not afraid." Ping Jiangcheng replied calmly.
"Thank you, Taira-sama." Minamoto Yoshitada bowed to him: "As for you, Tachibana-sama, Fujiwara-sama, please go back immediately, gather all your retainers, and then contact everyone who is willing to do whatever it takes to rescue the emperor. The dead martyr tells them that Japan's most glorious moment is about to come. The fate of the Emperor and Japan will be reversed by us!"
"Yes, Minamoto-sama, please rest assured, we will definitely gather all the martyrs who are willing to serve the Emperor!" Tachibana Koichi and Fujiwara Shinnao responded loudly together.
Tachibana Koichi hesitated for a moment and said: "Master Yuan, Master Heping will face great danger if you stay here. Do you want to set the meeting place at my place?"
Minamoto Yoshitaka shook his head slightly: "Master Tachibana, please forgive me for what I said. The Tachibana family is no longer what it used to be. You must admit this."
Tachibana Koichi nodded silently.
Minamoto Yoshitaka then said seriously: "But there are also a group of elite warriors in your family, such as Tori Motoaki. He is a disciple of Miyamoto Musashi, right?"
Tachibana Koichi nodded again.
"Therefore, the important task of gathering all the power that can be concentrated falls on you." Minamoto Yoshitaka said solemnly: "If we fail, the future of Japan will be entrusted to you and Mr. Fujiwara. Please do not Let our sacrifice be in vain.¡±
"Please rest assured, Minamoto-sama." Tachibana Koichi and Fujiwara Shinnao looked at each other and raised their voices slightly: "We will definitely fulfill your instructions and fight for the destiny of Japan!"
Yuan Yoshizhong breathed out a sigh of relief, perhaps there was only so much he could do.
I hope Amaterasu can bless himself, the Japanese Empire, and all Japanese people. Although Japan has failed, it may not be without miracles, and this miracle will be born from his own hands!
