Chapter 451 A child is innocent and refuses to make a counteroffer

As soon as the words "Ashikaga Yoshinori" were spoken, Hosokawa Masamoto's face suddenly changed color visible to the naked eye. A few days ago, Ashikaga Yosumi led his army on an expedition. He claimed that he was going to conquer Koei Shin, but in fact he was going to hunt down and kill him.

Ashikaga Yoshinori and his old tribe.

But halfway through, news came that Kyoto City was under siege, so they had to quickly retreat and return to rescue.

Of course, they arrived a step too late. By the time they came back, the Ming army had taken over their old home.

When the Ming Dynasty general in front of him called Ashikaga Yoshizuki's name, Hosokawa Masamoto couldn't help but feel suspicious. He suspected that the Ming army had already had contact with Ashikaga Yoshizuki, and...

Immediately he thought it was impossible, how could Ashikaga Yoshimoto be here? After he fled, he led his old troops all the way to the west. The most likely place to appear at this time was the surrounding defense of Yamaguchi.

Hosokawa Masamoto, who was unsure for a moment, had no choice but to ask: "Have you ever seen Ashikaga Yoshinori in your country?"

His tone was cautious, and everyone could see his nervousness. After all, Ashikaga Yoshimoto, the former shogun, was deposed by him in conjunction with Ise Sadamune, Hino Tomiko and others.

Xia Yuan took in all his reactions, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "It doesn't matter if you have seen it before, or if you haven't seen it before, I just ask you, can Ashikaga Yoshinori be considered the orthodoxy of your Japanese country?"

"."

It was difficult for Hosokawa Masamoto to answer. If it counts, of course it counts, and it is much more orthodox than the current Ashikaga Yoshinori. After all, Ashikaga Yoshinori was born in the clan and was a former shogun.

But Ashikaga Yosumi was just a member of a separate family, and his identity was far inferior to the former.

Even when he, the leader of the shogunate, united with a group of others to launch the Mingying Revolution, which abolished Ashikaga Yoshimoto and replaced him with Ashikaga Yoshiumi, it was because the latter had a low status and lacked legitimacy to control.

Seeing that he was still silent, Xia Yuan kept smiling, "As far as I know, Ashikaga Yoshinori is the former shogun of your Muromachi shogunate, or he is from a direct lineage of some clan, and he is more qualified to be the shogunate than the current Ashikaga Yosumi.

If you don't agree, that's okay. I will go and discuss with Ashikaga Yoshimoto, and promise him to return to the position of shogun. I think he will be happy to agree to all the terms of my Ming Dynasty."

After hearing this, Masamoto Hosokawa hurriedly said: "Your country, Ming Dynasty, must think carefully. Although Ashikaga Yoshitsune comes from a clan, he is not popular among the people in our country. He was deposed because of his unkindness and cruelty.

"

"You know the reason why you were deposed, so for your shameless confusion of right and wrong, I have to go to Ashikaga Yoshimoto and say, when the time comes, let him come over to confront you, and you two can have a good fight.

Damn it, what was the reason for deposing him in the first place? Was it because he was unworthy, or was it because you, Masamoto Hosokawa, wanted to take power?"

Saying that, Xia Yuan suddenly shouted: "Come here, see off the guests, and take this Hosokawa Masamoto out of the military camp for me!"

Hosokawa Masamoto was shocked: "The peace talks are not over yet. Don't you want to talk, sir?"

Xia Yuan asked back: "Don't you disagree? Aren't you also saying that the conditions are so harsh that it's extremely difficult to agree? Since you don't agree, what else can we talk about? Don't waste time. You can go back and lead the army to prepare for war. By the way,

Take the time to choose a coffin of your choice and wait for my army to launch a general attack. As for me, I will go find someone who is willing to agree."

"Sir, I'll wait"

"Don't say anything unnecessary, just say yes or no."

"Sir, are the second, third and fourth of these conditions acceptable?"

Seeing that Masahiro Hosokawa wanted to bargain, Xia Yuan waved his hand, "Come on, kick this guy out!"

"Sir, just change"

"Boom out!"

Several soldiers came in from outside the battalion commander. As soon as they entered the tent, they couldn't help but pick up Hosokawa Masamoto, and then dragged him out. After all, Hosokawa Masamoto was the leader of the Japanese shogunate and had great power. When had he ever experienced this?

Due to the treatment, I subconsciously began to struggle.

However, the height of Japanese people is generally very low. He himself is about 1.45 meters, which is considered tall, but compared with the height of 1.7 meters of soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, he is like a dwarf.

The so-called struggle is not only futile and useless, it is just kicking the legs in the air.

The scene is funny and absurd.

Hosokawa Masamoto could only say loudly: "Sir, these conditions are indeed too harsh. I must be honest, even Ashikaga Yoshinori will not agree to it."

Xia Yuan sneered, "If you don't agree, I won't bother you. Throw this person out, and then pass on my order to launch a general attack on the Japanese camp immediately!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an urgent shout came from outside the camp, "Sir, I agree, I agree!"

"Come on, take this person."

"Sir, I really agreed!"

"Take this person back again."

Soon, Hosokawa Masamoto, who was held up in the air, was held back by several soldiers and then put back on the ground.

Hosokawa Masamoto didn't want to agree, but he couldn't agree. The Ming army had grasped his weakness. He had served as the shogunate leader for many years. He knew Ashikaga Yoshimoto well. This former shogun preferred to act on his own initiative.

.

If you don't make decisions before taking action, you will always act on your whim.

Not to mention, this person has been imprisoned for many years and has accumulated a lot of resentment.

He can guarantee that as long as the Ming army offers a bargaining chip to help him regain the position of general, no matter what conditions are offered, Ashikaga Yoshimoto will accept it without even thinking.

Then, whether it was contacting the old troops or asking the Ming army to borrow troops, all they wanted to do was destroy Ashikaga Yosumi and himself.

Let them die without a burial place, in order to severely vent the evil spirit that has been suppressed for many years, and at the same time take back the position of general that belongs to him.

As for whether the Ming army can help Ashikaga Yoshinori regain his position as general, there is no need to consider this at all. Now most of the shogunate has been besieged by the Ming army, and they are fighting like the third grandson.

Since there is always someone who has to agree to these unreasonable and vicious traitorous terms, why can't it be you?

Besides, you can still live after agreeing.

No one would want to die if it was not necessary.

Hosokawa Masamoto didn't want to, he straightened his clothes and saluted Zhang Mao and Xia Yuan again, "I, the Ashikaga Shogunate, accept all your country's conditions, but your country promised to provide firearms, I don't know how much it can provide.

"

"Oh, it depends on how much money you have."

"silver?"

Hosokawa Masamoto was stunned for a moment, then said: "Could it be that the shogunate wants me to buy it with money?"

"What else?" Xia Yuan's eyes widened, "Why, you still expect me, Da Ming, to give you free gifts? Touch your face to see if it looks big, and see if you are qualified?"

"."

Hosokawa Masamoto choked.

Xia Yuan continued: "I am aware that these firearms are made with hard work and are not blown by strong winds. If you want to have sex for free, you are just dreaming!

But since you and I are about to sign a contract, and the Ashikaga Shogunate and even the Japanese Empire will become my barrier to the Ming Dynasty, I will give you the lowest cost price at that time."

Hearing the lowest cost price, Hosokawa Masamoto felt inexplicably better. He asked aloud: "Then what is the cost price?"

Seeing that they started to talk about the price, Xia Yuan's tone softened a lot, "I wonder what you want?"

"I want the firearms in your country's hands, and the kind of things that emit fire after explosion."

Xia Yuan made a look of admiration, "I didn't expect that your vision is very vicious. These two things are the high-precision technology of our Ming Dynasty. It took countless craftsmen's efforts and money from the treasury to create them. One is called

There are three-eyed cannons, and one is called Thunderbolt General Shencan. To be honest, I really don’t want to sell you.”

"But since we have made our word first, and as a great country, we can't break our promise. Let's do this. I'll sell you a three-eyed blunderbuss for fifty taels of silver, and a thunderbolt general's divine cannon for thirty taels of silver."

, I am a child and I don’t want to be bullied, so I refuse to make any counter-offers.”
