Although there were many ideas about Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Tokugawa Ieyasu did not agree with Toyotomi Hideyoshi's idea of establishing a great Asian empire. But at this moment, the Ming Army gathered outside the city, and the Japanese Empire was about to fall. Tokugawa Ieyasu had the idea of establishing a great Asian empire.
At this moment, Tokugawa Ieyasu agreed with Toyotomi Hideyoshi's idea for the first time, that is, to be strong.
Why was Daming so arrogant? Toyotomi Hideyoshi wanted to surrender, but he couldn't. He must kill Toyotomi Hideyoshi, because Daming was strong enough.
Fushimi Castle was in chaos all night. Toyotomi Hideyoshi's death was too big and too strange. In this case, Tokugawa Ieyasu was quickly elected. Although some people suspected that Toyotomi Hideyoshi was killed by him, after all, many people had seen the attack of the Ninja Army.
But at this time, many people chose to ignore this, and Tokugawa Ieyasu was not without supporters.
So, the hat of killing Toyotomi Hideyoshi was put on Toyotomi Hiuji, and Fushimi Castle officially entered the era of Tokugawa Ieyasu.
But this era did not last long. At dawn the next day, Tokugawa Ieyasu proposed to surrender to Daming. After all, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was dead. The precondition of surrender that Daming did not accept was no longer there. Surrender became a matter of course. Although some people did not agree, this was the general trend.
After all, everyone knew that Fushimi Castle couldn't stop the Ming Army. Once Fushimi Castle was breached by the Ming Army, all of them would die.
When Zhang Weixian heard the news, he was speechless for a long time. He did not expect things to develop to this extent. Toyotomi Hideji was too useless.
In fact, if Toyotomi Hideyoshi died at the hands of Tokugawa Ieyasu, Zhang Weixian could accept it. However, Toyotomi Hideji was blamed for it, while Tokugawa Ieyasu reaped the benefits. This made Zhang Weixian unhappy.
A Tokugawa Ieyasu that was not dirty could not be used. Zhang Weixian knew this very well.
However, since things had come to this point, he could not turn hostile. Taking down Fushimi Castle and pacifying the Japanese Empire was the most important thing.
Since the war in Korea, the Daming had fought for so long and needed to rest. The soldiers' morale was also tired.
Under such circumstances, it was not appropriate to cause more trouble. However, Zhang Weixian made a decision in his heart. Tokugawa Ieyasu could not be left alive. Otherwise, there would be chaos in the future.
Fushimi Castle surrendered. The war of the Japanese Empire was over. The one who came out to surrender was the Emperor of the Japanese Empire who was like a puppet.
Zhang Weixian did not pay too much attention to him, but he also knew that he had to maintain enough etiquette because the Daming would need him in the future.
Jing City, Forbidden City, Wenhua Hall.
Since the beginning of autumn, there had been a lot of things to do in the court. Taxation was the top priority, followed by Qi Jiguang's return to the court. The Daming's Beiding Marquis had completely pacified the grasslands for the Daming.
Buyan Chechen and his family from the Chahar tribe also came to the capital. The arrival of the Buyan Chechen family meant that the Daming had completely completed the mission of conquering the grasslands in the South Desert.
The court was preparing for the offering ceremony. At the same time, it was also Qi Jiguang's conferring ceremony. No one said anything about Qi Jiguang's conferring ceremony. At this point, it was considered a matter of course.
"Imperial Majesty, war report from the Japanese Empire!" Zhang Jing came to Zhu Yijun's side and bowed.
Zhu Yijun took the report and glanced at it. Since the battle of Fushimi Castle, the Japanese Empire had completely pacified. Zhang Weixian provided his arrangements in detail. At the same time, he also emphasized the matter of Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Putting down the report, Zhu Yijun said with a smile, "Let the Grand Council issue an order. Remove the navy and let Zhang Weixian lead the army!"
Although the Daming's army in the Japanese Empire wouldn't exceed thirty thousand, with the presence of the navy, there was no need to worry about any problems.
As the colonization deepened, the manpower would naturally increase. Of course, there were also the North Koreans. In the war against the Japanese Empire, the North Koreans had also contributed. Naturally, Zhu Yijun would give North Korea benefits. North Korea would also station troops in the Japanese Empire. There were about fifty thousand of them, which added up to a hundred thousand.
"Send an order to Zhang Weixian. Since we can't kill that Tokugawa Ieyasu, then bring him to the capital!" Zhu Yijun gave the report to Zhang Jing and said.
Tokugawa Ieyasu was an unstable factor. Zhu Yijun knew this better than anyone else. He was good at forbearance and was also an ambitious person. If he was placed in the Japanese Empire, he would cause trouble sooner or later.
Zhang Weixian knew this, and Zhu Yijun knew it even more clearly. None of the three heroes of the Warring States Period were easy to deal with.
The reason why the Daming could defeat them so easily was because the Ming Army was strong. This reminded Zhu Yijun of modern history.
Was there no one in China?
Did China not dare to die?
Could the generals of China not fight?
Many people died during the War of Resistance. Many people died on the battlefield. But in those battles, most of them were crushed.
In the face of epoch-making technology, individual bravery was really insignificant. They had to push the Daming to the level of the industrial revolution as soon as possible.
As long as the Daming started the industrial revolution and built the steam engine first, the decline of the Daming in this era would not be as bad as in Feng Yu's previous life.
Zhu Yijun was in a daze, but he was more determined. But he did not know how long he would have to wait!
The news of the Japanese Empire's victory had also spread. But in the north, everyone was more concerned about the Grassland War. They did not pay much attention to the battle of the Japanese Empire.
In addition, there were too many news of the war in Korea. The people in the capital had become immune to it. Anyway, they won no matter what war they fought.
The Daming was powerful, and the people in the capital were proud. They walked on the streets with their heads held high.
The sense of national pride had undoubtedly exploded at this moment.
Zhu Yijun naturally wanted to guide all this. When he received the news, Zhu Yijun made this arrangement.
In the following days, Zhu Yijun was unusually busy. First, it was the offering of wealth. Then, it was Qi Jiguang's conferment. These were all things Zhu Yijun had to do.
The ceremony was tedious and boring. But it had to be done. It was for the future generations to see. Work hard!
Qi Jiguang's today will be your tomorrow.
Forbidden City, Wenhua Palace.
Zhu Yijun looked at Qi Jiguang who walked in and said with a smile. "I have prepared some food and wine. You can drink with me!"
When Qi Jiguang heard Zhu Yijun's words, an idea flashed in his mind. It was to drink wine to release military power.
In fact, Zhu Yijun did not have this idea at all. It was only because the emperor of the Song Dynasty was not upright that he would do such a thing. With Zhu Yijun's current reputation, he did not have to worry about this at all.
Zhu Yijun's current reputation was so high that it was terrifying. He was an emperor throughout the ages, a hero of all ages, and he was crowned with great hats one after another.
After the emperor and the minister sat down, Zhu Yijun picked up the wine pot and poured a glass of wine for Qi Jiguang. Qi Jiguang was so shocked that he quickly stood up.
