Chapter 279 Volunteering

"You want to go in person?"

Zhu Houzhao looked at Tang Hao in disbelief.

"Why?"

"You clearly know that the current situation cannot be compromised!"

His Majesty the Emperor instinctively wanted to veto this proposal.

Because the current situation in the court is really too dangerous.

It was this damned savage who proposed lifting the vassal ban and bringing the power of the clan into the court to fight against the civil servants and gentry.

Zhu Houzhao really listened, and he really plucked up the courage to try to control or even control these two forces, so that their fight would be under certain control and not completely disrupt the court.

However, Zhu Houzhao knew clearly in his heart that if he could not control it, if his Majesty, the emperor, lost control, the Ming Dynasty would face an unprecedented crisis!

Fortunately, the savages were always by his side. He even handed over the Qinghe Shipyard to Zuo Yidao for guarding, just for the sake of the current overall situation.

"impossible!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

"You clearly know that Zhu Chenhao is plotting a rebellion, yet you still want to leave the capital at this juncture?!"

Zhu Houzhao sternly reprimanded, saying that he couldn't understand why the savages were so impulsive.

"For what exactly?"

"Savage, why do you have such deep hostility towards the Japanese country?"

why?

Tang Hao was startled when he heard this. He was not surprised that Zhu Houzhao could see this. He just didn't know how to answer.

Why is there such deep hostility towards Japan?

Any Han family man would never let these bastards go!

Tang Hao pondered for a long time, and finally changed his words to something Zhu Houzhao could understand.

"In the past, Emperor Taizu Gao, who was known for his iron fist, first thought of solving the Japanese pirate problem with force. Zhou Dexing, a famous general stationed in Fujian at that time, also said, "Gathering water divisions in Penghu and riding the north wind, the Japanese slaves can be wiped out overnight. "However, at that time, the Ming Dynasty was still in ruins in the north and Wuxi was in chaos in the south. Considering the lessons learned from Kublai Khan's defeat, Emperor Taizu Gao finally chose to use diplomatic channels to resolve the Sino-Japanese dispute."

"In the second year of Hongwu, the diplomatic mission of the Ming Dynasty arrived at Kyushu Island, Japan, and conveyed the war message of Taizu, "If he must be a bandit, I will order the boat master to sail to the islands, capture his disciples, reach his country, and bind his king." Threat, unfortunately, before Ming Dynasty’s credentials arrived in Kyoto, they were intercepted by Prince Huai Liang of the Japanese Kingdom of Southern Dynasty who was entrenched in Kyushu.”

"Prince Huairiang was the son of Emperor Daigo of the Japanese Kingdom. He was a headstrong man. He was quite dissatisfied with the contemptuous words such as "lord of the four barbarians" and "chief" in the Ming Dynasty's credential, so he immediately executed the members of the mission. The chief envoy Wu Yong and five others also detained the deputy envoys Yang Zai and Wu Wenhua for three months. Taizu's first attempt to surrender ended in failure. "

"For more than ten years after that, the Ming Dynasty always mistakenly believed that Huai Liang was the "King of the Japanese Kingdom." For this reason, Taizu also rejected the Ashikaga clan of the Northern Dynasty of the Japanese Kingdom and made sincere contributions for six consecutive years starting from the seventh year of Hongwu. Pay tribute, because in the eyes of the great ancestor, the Ashikaga clan is just a mere warlord. How can a great country establish diplomatic relations with rebellious ministers and traitors. "

"So throughout the entire life of Grandfather Taizu, the Ming Dynasty always used Prince Huai Liang as its negotiating opponent, asking the Japanese government to restrain the Japanese pirates who harassed the Japanese. However, the Southern Dynasty represented by Prince Huai Liang was always in a weak position in the Japanese civil war. Huge military expenditures and control The poor resources in the area made them unable to deal with the problem of Japanese pirates. Therefore, the Japanese pirates continued to harass the Ming Dynasty, and the two sides were unable to reach an agreement. "

Zhu Houzhao's face was full of confusion. He didn't understand what the savage said at this moment had anything to do with the savage's hatred of the Japanese country!

"After that, Grandpa Taizu had a certain understanding of the domestic political situation of the Japanese country. This self-taught "emperor immediately" even wrote a Yuefu poem "Japanese Fan Xing" to express his contempt for this rogue regime. Taizu In the poem, the grandfather not only accused the Japanese government of "the king is unruly and the people are thieves, disturbing the lives of the gods and ghosts", but also ridiculed Prince Huairiang for "the king and his ministers were barefoot, talking and frogs croaking, and they were aspiring to jump into the beams of Tianxian". However, even so Taizu I have no interest in transforming Japan.”

"Therefore, although he lamented that "if we know now, the Japanese slaves will change in the future", he finally accepted the Huai Liang Guo Shu's "Since ancient times, peace is the most important thing, war is the best, to avoid the destruction of living beings, and to save lives." "The hardships of the common people" suggested that the Japanese country be included in the Ming Dynasty's "Countries that will not be conquered in the fifteenth year."

Zhu Houzhao listened patiently, but in the end he couldn't help it.

"Savage, what exactly do you want to say?"

"These are Hongwu's past events. What does it have to do with your hatred of Japanese people?"

Tang Hao looked up at Zhu Houzhao in a daze.

"Grandfather Taizu once said that if you can control it now with a wave of your hand, the Japanese slaves will change like this in the future!"

"And I once dreamed about the scene where the Japanese invaded China and all the people were devastated."

Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao was stunned.

The Japanese invaded China?

How can this be?

How dare they do this in such a small country?

"These bastards implemented the "Three Guangs Policy" in China, killing everyone, burning them all, and robbing them all!"

"Wherever they went, they created inhumane massacres. They used cruel methods such as burying them alive, hacking them with knives, and burning them, leaving behind corpse pits with rivers of blood and mountains of corpses!"

"In addition to the massacre, they also enjoy abusing women. They rape women day and night. Some women were raped several times a day. Some women with good looks were even raped by these bastards in a line. They deliberately did it day and night, deliberately not giving these women any time to breathe. Some women committed suicide because they could not bear the torture of these bastards..."

"They also captured these women to serve as military prostitutes. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese women were captured by these bastards and became military prostitutes. They had no human rights. In the military camps of these bastards, each person had to endure an average of nearly 400 Japanese bastards' torture and humiliation every day..."

"They even attacked children, sexually abusing little girls to death, and stripping little boys of their skin and flesh and eating their hearts raw..."

"Enough!" Zhu Houzhao's scalp numbed and he felt sick. He immediately shouted angrily, trying to stop Tang Hao from continuing.

Even though he was a psychopath, he felt that these bastards were too perverted, so perverted that he couldn't listen to them at all.

However, since Tang Hao had spoken, he would not stop there. Instead, he pointed at his eyes and looked at Zhu Houzhao in a low voice.

"So you ask me why I hate these bastards so much? Why do I personally lead the army to slaughter Japan?"

"Because I have seen it with my own eyes. I have seen the decline of China, I have seen the wailing of Han women, and I have seen the hell scene that is like purgatory, which happened on this land of China!"

Tang Hao's eyes were bloodshot, and veins on his forehead were already bulging. Obviously, he was furious!

It was the first time that Zhu Houzhao saw him in such a terrible look. For a while, he was frightened and speechless.

After a long time, His Majesty the Emperor spoke pitifully and tentatively.

"But what about the capital? What about Zhu Chenhao? What should I... do?"

"You will be gone for at least one or two years. What if I get into trouble, what if Zhu Chenhao rebels..."

Tang Hao regained his composure and patted Zhu Houzhao on the shoulder.

"I will only take 10,000 soldiers from the capital, leaving Xu Tianci to command the rest!"

"Xu Tianci is the descendant of the famous general Xu Da, and he is cautious and prudent. I will ask him to keep an eye on the situation in the capital. If Zhu Chenhao makes any unusual moves, he can suppress it instantly with his ability, so you don't have to worry too much."

"In addition, we have sent Ma Yong and Deng Boyan to Japan before. It is estimated that the two of them have already provoked a civil war in Japan, so it won't take too long. Counting the sailing time, I will return to the capital in a year at most!"

Speaking of At this point, Tang Hao deliberately joked: "If you can't hold on for a year, then let's not bother. You should be a tyrant and I should be a dandy duke!"

"Bullshit!" Young people can't stand provocation the most. "I can definitely suppress you in just one year!"

"I'm just worried about you. Don't die in the vast ocean or in the foreign land of Japan. I'll have to collect your body when the time comes!"

Tang Hao was stunned when he heard this, and then burst into laughter.

"Then it's settled. I'll go to mobilize troops to prepare for the expedition. You should also ask the Ministry of Revenue to make arrangements. Go early and come back early!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Hao turned and left.

He would never be absent from the massacre of Japan.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the back of this guy and couldn't help feeling uneasy.

"Savage, don't charge into battle, you hear me?"

"If you really die in Japan, I will go to war in person at all costs to avenge you, do you understand?"

Tang Hao couldn't help but raise his mouth slightly when he heard this, then stopped and raised his hand in response.

"Your Majesty, let me be willful this time!"

Zhu Houzhao smiled bitterly and finally acquiesced to Tang Hao's departure.

They both knew that it was not necessary for Tang Hao to go there in person to exterminate Japan. It was the best choice for him to stay in the capital, so that he could respond to emergencies in the capital at any time.

For example, Zhu Chenhao suddenly started to rebel!

For example, the various conspiracies of civil officials and gentry against the royal family and vassal kings!

Zhu Houzhao, the young emperor, was still a little naive, so he had no confidence that he could suppress these two forces at the same time.

However, when Tang Hao said those words, Zhu Houzhao could only choose to follow his wishes.

After all, this was the first time that Tang Hao had made a clear request to Zhu Houzhao since they met.

Therefore, even if it was just to let Tang Hao go out and be unrestrained, Zhu Houzhao could not refuse.

In fact, Zhu Houzhao also wanted to be unrestrained like this, and he also wanted to see the sea!

Unfortunately, because of that damned orthodox emperor, Zhu Houzhao may not have such an opportunity in his life.

"Grandpa, you are such a scumbag!"

Dongguan Hall Camp.

Tang Hao summoned all the generals as soon as he returned here.

"This time, I will lead 10,000 soldiers to the battle."

"There is only one goal, to destroy the Japanese country and crush all the disloyalty!"

As soon as Tang Hao finished speaking, the one-eyed Lei Xiong immediately knelt on the ground.

"My Lord, I beg you to kill me!"

"If you don't take me with you, I will immediately crash into you!"

As soon as Lei Xiong said this, everyone was stunned at first, and then they all laughed.

Tang Hao also felt it was funny for a while, and joked: "Who the hell did you learn this method from? You have a knife in your hand and you don't know how to kill yourself. Do you have to kill yourself to show me?"

Lei Xiong smiled and touched his bald head and muttered: "That's what it means anyway. You must bring the general with you. The general has been waiting for this day for too long!"

"One-eyed Lei, you look a little ugly!" An Guo mocked angrily, "The Marquis has taken you with him to cut off all the camps every time he goes on an expedition. Doesn't he leave a way for the other brothers to survive?"

"That's right!" Chang Kuohai complained: "I am also going to the first camp. If the Marquis does not agree, I will roll around and show you..."

"Hahaha……"

Everyone was laughing so much.

This silly Chang Lengzi actually knew that there was going to be a fight, yet he still told such a joke.

Tang Hao glared at Chang Kuohai angrily, and then said: "Go, everyone go!"

"You leave the lieutenants to continue training, and then select 1,500 elites from your own camp to accompany me on the expedition to Japan!"

This time Tang Hao sent troops with only 10,000 Beijing troops, also out of consideration of the current situation.

The capital is the capital after all, and no accidents are allowed, so forty to fifty thousand soldiers must be left behind to suppress all disobedience.

Furthermore, this is a cross-sea expedition against the Japanese country. The more troops there are, the greater the losses. It does not take so many troops to kill a mere Japanese country.

However, considering that this time he was going to destroy the country, he must have accomplished the feat of destroying the country. Tang Hao also wanted to take the opportunity to let his generals and soldiers become officers and nobles. It would be best to use this achievement of destroying the country to promote a knighthood. Come out and help him in the court.

After setting the standards, the generals immediately went to select the elites, and Tang Hao kept Xu Tianci.

"Godsend, this is the Admiral's belt!"

Looking at the admiral's badge in front of him, Xu Tianci was stunned for a moment, and then immediately fell to his knees on the ground.

"Don't be nervous. Among the brothers who are staying in the capital, I'd better keep an eye on you!"

"You have a stable temperament and are proficient in military strategy, so I will temporarily leave the Beijing army to you to take charge of the troops to prevent any emergencies!"

Xu Tianci's expression changed after hearing this, and he solemnly took the admiral badge.

"I have already made an agreement with His Majesty. I estimate that a deputy of the Jin Yiwei will come over soon to cooperate with you in commanding the troops. Don't have any other ideas. This is the rule. It is best to be an old acquaintance like Leng Hantie."

Xu Tianci nodded. He really had no idea and was even a little worried.

Because this is a soldier of the Beijing Army, the strongest warrior capable of subverting the entire capital. No one except Tang Hao, the Marquis of Zhongshan, is qualified to take charge.

Now that His Majesty the Emperor has sent the Imperial Guard to assist, Xu Tianci can feel at ease.

"The other one is Yang Yiqing, Minister of the Ministry of War. You don't need to pay attention to him. You should train your troops and do what you should do. But you must always be vigilant. Once someone in the capital makes trouble, you must remember that you have not received His Majesty's orders from the Jinyi Guards. We must not send troops without authorization, do you understand?"

Xu Tianci nodded repeatedly. He could not see His Majesty's will and would never send troops!

The reason is very simple. Tang Hao, the Marquis of Zhongshan, can mobilize troops without an edict, but Xu Tianci cannot. If he really does this and falls into someone else's scheme, he will definitely die without a burial place!

"I will leave a letter for Yang Yiqing. You can just give it to him when he returns to Beijing."

"The main thing you should be on guard against is Prince Ning Zhu Chenhao, this idiot. But come to think of it, he won't really have the guts to rebel in the capital, but you can't take it lightly..."

Tang Hao gave Xu Tianci instructions and finally felt relieved.

"In a year at most, he will return to Beijing."

"It's been a lot of hard work for you during this period!"

Xu Tianci said solemnly: "The general will definitely live up to the high hopes of the Marquis!"

Sure enough, while the two were talking, Leng Hantie rushed over. From today on, he will cooperate with Xu Tianci to take charge of the Beijing army as a member of the Imperial Army Qianhu.

Tang Hao also gave Leng Hantie a few words, and then hurriedly left the camp and returned to his Marquis Mansion.

After all, he is about to go on an expedition again, and the little wife at home still needs to comfort him with a few words.

However, when he just arrived at the Marquis Mansion, he unexpectedly saw the carriage of the British Duke Zhang Mao.

Speaking of which, since the last time Tang Hao forced Zhang Mao to break one of his playboy son Zhang Lun's legs in order to seize power and establish his status as the number one martial artist, the relationship between the two broke down instantly. Zhang Mao I haven't had a visit since then.

On the contrary, Tang Hao's wife Zhang Jingshu went to the British government residence to visit the old man from time to time, saying good things to Tang Hao in the hope of easing the relationship.

Today is strange, Zhang Mao actually came to visit.

Tang Hao suppressed the suspicion in his heart and walked quickly to the lobby, but did not see his second uncle Tang Er, only the expressionless British Duke Zhang Mao.

Well, it was a little embarrassing, but Tang Hao still took the initiative to salute Zhang Mao.

"I met my grandfather."

"Um...are you back?" Zhang Mao stroked his beard, "You want to lead an army to conquer Japan?"

"Yes, we will set off today!" Tang Hao was not surprised at all. After all, Zhang Mao was once the number one martial artist. If he wanted to know the information about the court, he didn't need many methods.

"Is it okay to bring someone with you? It's all about sharing some of the credit with them. It's also good for you!"

Zhang Mao made his request straightforwardly without any nonsense.

Tang Hao thought for a moment and then nodded.

"Xianning Bo Qiu Yue, right?"

"I can't hide it from you!"

The two smiled at each other, everything was self-explanatory, and they were too lazy to talk about the intrigues.

This time, Tang Hao readily agreed, which eased the stiff relationship between the two, at least they could chat and laugh.

But before they had talked for a few words, Zhang Mao changed the subject and accused Tang Hao with a smile.

"Although you are now the Marquis of Zhongshan, the emperor's first confidant, and you are too busy with government affairs to spare time, but I have warned you that Shu'er is my precious granddaughter, you must not let her suffer any grievances..."

Hearing this, Tang Hao was subconsciously confused. He thought that it was because of the matter of Hu Ji that his wife told Zhang Mao, so the old man came to the door to ask for punishment.

"Grandfather, I have explained the matter of Hu Ji to Shu'er. If Shu'er is still not satisfied, I will order someone to send Hu Ji away..."

"What the hell are you talking about?" Zhang Mao scolded.

Isn't it because of this Hu Ji?

Tang Hao was stunned.

Seeing his bewildered look, Zhang Mao couldn't help but laugh and scold: "You, you are really stupid!"

"Shu'er is pregnant!"

Pregnant? !

Tang Hao's head exploded, and a touch of ecstasy surged in his heart.

He finally found his roots in the Ming Dynasty, wasn't he?
