Chapter 629 Nagato Guardian!
The Daming military camp near Kiyomizu Temple in Kyoto, Japan, was exercising. A middle-aged man covered in weeds and mud forced his way through the barrier despite the guards at the gate.
"stop!"
"This is the Daming military camp, no one else is allowed to enter!"
"I'm Santiao Mino, the Duke of Kyoto, and I have an urgent matter to see Mr. Wei Mingwei!"
"Master Wei..."
The gatekeeper's attitude softened when he heard the other party accurately calling Mr. Wei's name.
"Then you also stand still first, wait for me to go in and report, and see if Mr. Wei is willing to see you!"
"Okay, okay, I'll wait..."
Wei Ming has been in Japan for a while. Not only did he take over the command of these 1000 soldiers from his predecessor, he also inherited the intelligence personnel trained by the previous special envoy.
At this time, he was writing the official document of His Majesty the Ming Emperor, passing back in detail what he saw and heard in Japan.
"Master Wei, there is someone outside the door claiming to be Santiao Shiye and asking to see him!"
"Three real wilds?"
"What kind of prince does he claim to be..."
"President!"
Wei Ming knew about Japanese culture before coming to Japan, and he knew that the so-called Gongjia was somewhat similar to the honorable family of Ming Dynasty, they were all families of officials and eunuchs from generation to generation.
Although he didn't know what level the Santiao family was, since he dared to call himself a public family, he should have a hereditary position belonging to his own family.
"Bring him in!"
"promise!"
Not long after, the gatekeepers brought Santiao Mitiao into Wei Ming's reception room.
"Master Wei, help me!"
Upon seeing this, Wei Ming hurried forward and helped Sanjo Sanno up.
"What's the matter, but something big happened?"
"My lord Wei, there are unscrupulous people who are instigating the people to attack the palace, saying that they will call on His Majesty the Emperor to expel the Ming people and take back the Ishijian Silver Mine!"
When Wei Ming heard the words "imperial palace", "emperor" and so on, he was already displeased. When he heard that the Japanese wanted to drive away the people of Ming Dynasty and take back the Shijian silver mine, his face suddenly turned pale.
"No reason!"
"Iwami Silver Mine is the land of our Ming Dynasty, what qualifications do you Japan have to take it back!"
"As for expelling the Ming people, it's even more nonsense!"
"I, the people of the Ming Dynasty, trekked across mountains and rivers to come to your country. Not only did I bring you high-quality and cheap products, but I also taught you the official language of the Ming Dynasty for free, and taught you how to read and write. Is this how you repay your benefactors!"
Sanjo Mino broke out in cold sweat when he heard this.
"grown ups!"
"The villain is very grateful for Daming's kindness, and all the sons of the villain have been sent to study in Daming, which is enough to prove the loyalty of the villain to Daming, right?"
"But the unscrupulous people in this country don't understand. They heard the rumor somewhere that the Ming Dynasty mined the Shijian silver mine and dug up the dragon veins of their country, making them unable to have sons..."
Wei Ming sneered when he heard this.
"funny!"
"You also have dragon veins in Japan?"
"Yes, yes, Japan doesn't have dragon veins or anything like that. It's just a joke made by people from the countryside!"
"My lord, now those gangsters have gathered at the gate of the palace, and I request my lord to send troops to eradicate them!"
"Oh……"
Wei Ming's eyes rolled around when he heard this.
Although his status in Japan can be called the Supreme Emperor, both the Japanese emperor and the shogun have to behave like courtiers when they see him.
But for a second-ranked Jinshi like him, coming to Japan as a special envoy was already considered an exile.
Therefore, he has been holding back his energy to make meritorious service, and then returned to Daming through meritorious service, and competed with the elites of Daming in the political arena.
"This is quite difficult!"
"According to the laws of His Majesty the Ming Emperor, our special envoys are not allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries at will..."
Mijo Santiao thought that Wei Ming didn't want to help, so he was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed.
"I beg your lord to help you. As long as the situation is settled, our Kyoto government is willing to give 1 taels of gold to reward your army!"
"1 million taels?"
Wei Ming's eyes turned red when he heard this. He had worked hard for a year and his salary was less than 3000 taels of silver.
This is because Japan is located overseas, and the imperial court gave an additional overseas subsidy of 1000 taels of silver.
Now the public class in Japan pays 1 taels of gold when they open their mouths, catching up with his 20-year salary!
"Since you are so enthusiastic, I will reluctantly help you once."
"But let's not take this as an example. Next time something like this happens, you should find a way to suppress it yourself!"
"promise!"
"Sir, please rest assured. When His Majesty the Emperor returns to the country, we will naturally be able to quell the chaos!"
For the sake of the 1 taels of gold, Wei Ming ignored Santiao Mijo's arrogance.
However, he has objections to the return of His Majesty the Emperor.
In fact, there has been discussion in the court about whether to release the Japanese Emperor. Some people suggested releasing him, while others suggested holding the emperor hostage to order the princes.
Before coming to Japan, Wei Ming also opposed the proposal, but after coming to Japan and learning about the customs and customs of Japan, Wei Ming suddenly felt that it was more appropriate to let the emperor back.
Because there is no emperor in Japan, the daimyo and guardians in various places work in their own way, making it difficult to organize.
With the nominal guise of the emperor, even if they make a fuss, they are relatively restrained, and they will not go too far.
For example, today's riots, if the emperor is there, the emperor can suppress it with his personal prestige, or other troops, so where is it his turn to do it himself?
After Wei Ming reached an agreement with Sanjo Mino, he immediately rushed to the palace with a thousand soldiers.
Kuga Laitong, who was confronting Huashan Great Temple at the entrance of the palace, suddenly saw the Ming soldiers appearing behind him, and his face turned pale on the spot with fright.
"Huashan Temple, you are so cruel, you actually colluded with the Ming people to bully us!"
Huashan Temple saw the backer coming, and suddenly became a little more courageous.
"We are all good citizens under the rule of Ming Dynasty, how can we talk about collusion!"
"On the contrary, you, as a member of the public family, don't think of serving Daming, and don't think of serving His Majesty the Emperor. You incite the people and want to rebel. You are really treasonous!"
"Come here, cooperate with the Great Tomorrow Soldiers, and take down this group of traitors!"
"Yes!"
The guards of the palace ran out of the palace one after another, holding spears, bows and arrows and aimed at the warriors who came to attack.
Seeing this posture for a long time, I secretly thought that I would suffer.
But at this time, he was already on the verge of riding a tiger, and even if he wanted to run, he had nowhere to run.
Therefore, he can only bite the bullet and command the warriors behind him, regardless of whether he is dead or not, let's just pull a few backs first!
"Samurai!"
"The time has come for us to serve His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Follow me, kill these traitorous lackeys!"
Holding a samurai sword in hand, Kuga Laitong rushed towards the gate of the palace.
The group of warriors behind him hesitated for a while, and also felt that this direction was a soft persimmon, so they rushed over with him.
Although the number of palace guards is superior, most of the palace guards are descendants of the public, and they only enter the palace to receive money and food, and they don't know how to fight at all.
On the contrary, the group of ronin warriors that Kuga Raitsu organized on the street were all top battle masters, and they killed the palace guards in just one round.
However, just as they were about to take advantage of the victory and pursue the attack, bursts of firecrackers suddenly sounded behind them.
"Bang... bang bang bang... bang bang..."
After a burst of firecrackers, the warriors fell down in large numbers.
Before they died, they couldn't believe that they were so brave to kill the enemy, and they would be shot to death by the Ming people from behind...
"Ming people don't talk about martial arts..."
"Don't talk about... Wude..."
Although there were constant accusations on the battlefield, Wei Ming still showed no mercy and continued to give orders with a gloomy face.
"put!"
"Kill all these mobs!"
"promise!"
Another round of firecrackers rang out, and another group of warriors fell.
At this moment, Jiu Wo Lai Tong stopped charging, but stared blankly at the Daming army formation.
"Ming people don't talk about Wude!"
"The Ming Dynasty attacked from behind!"
"Da Ming should be damned!"
"If I die, I will die, but I will never let the Ming Dynasty kill me..."
Just when Kuga Raitou was about to commit suicide, a commotion suddenly broke out behind the Da Ming army formation. A group of cows came out of nowhere and crazily crashed into the Da Ming army formation, smashing the Daming fire blunderbuss formation into pieces. .
Seeing this scene, Jiuwo Laitong immediately brought dozens of people to kill, killed a bloody road from a corner of the Daming army formation, and then ran into the alleys in the capital city.
Wei Ming was just a civil servant, he had never seen such a battle before, so he was so frightened that he hid in the carriage on the spot.When he found out that it was a herd of farm cattle charging into the battle, he was so angry that he ordered the soldiers to shoot all the mad cattle.
After examining the dead bodies of the mad cows, Wei Ming realized that the tails of these mad cows were set ablaze, and the farm cattle ran wildly in pain, so they risked their lives to attack their own army.
"Damn!"
"Lockdown the city of Kyoto, be sure to catch the man who manipulated the bull and tear him into pieces!"
"promise!"
Following Wei Ming's order, several groups of soldiers immediately left the army formation and went to the various city gates in Kyoto to block them.
Wei Ming led the rest of the people to clean up the battlefield, and those who could still move were stabbed.
After all the mobs were eliminated, Wei Ming led the army into the palace and sat on the throne of His Majesty the Emperor to give orders.
"Sanjo Mino, you quickly lead the defense soldiers of the capital to search from house to house, and make sure to arrest all the mobs today!"
"Master Wei, I don't have enough official positions. This is the job of a minister of Taizheng. I have little talent and lack of knowledge to do this job..."
Wei Ming roared when he heard the words.
"To shut up!"
"I don't care about your samurai and public families in Japan. I will appoint you as the Minister of the Taizheng now, and let you take charge of the defense of Kyoto!"
Sanjo Mino was overjoyed when he heard the words.
"Thank you, my lord!"
"The villain is so heartbroken, I have to repay the adult for his kindness!"
Wei Ming immediately drafted the appointment document, stamped it with his official seal, and sent an army of ten men to Sanjo Sanno to protect him.
With Wei Ming's official printout and the protection of Ming soldiers, Santiao Minye's affairs were handled very quickly. It took only an hour to take over the defense of the capital city, and dispatched soldiers to search the entire city.
On the other side, Kuga Noriichi was walking in the alley for a while, and suddenly saw a middle-aged man waving to him, and he ran over without thinking.
"Are you just waiting for me for a long time?"
"you know me?"
"Not really, but the Fire Bull Formation just now was arranged by me."
Kuga Noriichi knelt down on the spot when he heard this.
"Lai Tong thank you for saving your life!"
The middle-aged man smiled and said.
"This is not a place for Shane, get in the car quickly, and I will take you to a safe place!"
"Thank you!"
Jiuga Laitong followed the middle-aged man into the carriage, and when he saw the carriage driving out of the city and heading towards Daming's barracks, his face turned pale with fright.
"Benefactor, you are not going to sell me to Ming Dynasty, are you?"
The middle-aged man smiled slightly when he heard this.
"how could be?"
"I'm just spending the night at Qingshui Temple, and I want to take you to Qingshui Temple to avoid the limelight."
"Kiyomizu Temple..."
I thought about it for a long time.
"It's dark under the lamp. The most dangerous place is the safest place..."
"clever!"
"Who would have thought that the thieves who opposed Daming would actually live in Qingshui Temple, which is only a wall away from Daming's barracks?"
Jiu Wo Lai Tong laughed loudly when he heard the words.
"The benefactor is really the reincarnation of Zhuge, who actually came up with such an ingenious method!"
"Dare to ask the benefactor's name, if Lai Tong escapes this catastrophe by chance, he must thank the benefactor for his life-saving grace!"
"I'm down, Yoshihiro Ouchi!"
"You are Nagato Guardian Ouchi Yoshihiro!"
"It's down!"
Kuga Yoshihiro has heard of Ouchi Yoshihiro's daimyo for a long time, and it can be said that Ouchi Yoshihiro is the most loyal to the emperor among the guardian daimyos in the southwest.
It's just that the Nagato generation is located in a remote place, even if Ouchi Yoshihiro wanted to assist the emperor, he was unable to do so.
"Unexpectedly, Yoshihiro Ouchi, who is famous for his loyalty, saved me!"
"Your Excellency Ouchi Yoshihiro, please accept Lai Tong's obeisance!"
Ouchi Yoshihiro hurriedly supported him, and smiled kindly.
"Your Excellency Lai Tong is from a noble family. How can he be compared to a country bastard like me!"
"I am honored to be able to rescue Your Excellency, and it is the honor of my Ouchi clan!"
The two exchanged pleasantries and then went to Kiyomizu Temple. In order to prevent anyone from recognizing Kuga Laitong, Ouchi Yoshihiro suggested that he shave his hair and pretend to be the monk he brought from Nagato.
At first, Kuaga Yorimichi didn't want to shave his head, because he said his body, hair and skin were affected by his parents.But when he heard that the Ming army was about to return to camp, he was so frightened that he quickly shaved off his hair.
That night, General Daming brought people to search the house, and saw that the temple was full of monks, but he didn't find the person he wanted, so he left angrily.
Kuga Yorimichi, who managed to escape the catastrophe, trusted Ouchi Yoshihiro even more, and bluntly said that the other party saved his life twice.
"My lord, thank you for your kindness, my life is yours from now on!"
Ouchi Yoshihiro enthusiastically helped Kuga Laitong up, and then asked kindly.
"Your Excellency Lai Tong, you are not alone, are you?"
Kuga Yorimichi looked at Yoshihiro Ouchi vigilantly after hearing the words.
"What do you mean, my lord?"
"Don't be nervous. I also dislike Daming. I want to serve His Majesty the Emperor, but I hate that there is no way to serve the country."
"If His Majesty Lai Tong does not give up, I am willing to support His Majesty the Emperor with you!"
"This……"
Kuga Noriichi was slightly troubled and said.
"It's not that villains don't trust adults, it's because Zhuming Society has rules, and everyone must agree to accept newcomers!"
"If your lord is not in a hurry, after the limelight is over, I'll call a meeting with everyone from the Zhu Ming Club to discuss..."
"Good good!"
"If this can be done, the Nagato generation will be the base of your company!"
