Chapter 204 206. [The Era of Great Voyage] The Founding of the Black Ship

『【((
It was another boring day, Sakai Zongshi sat alone in the large room to deal with official duties.Ninja didn't have any news, he felt it might not be good news.

Suddenly, a samurai rushed in from the outside, and just entered the gate when he fell, and the knife flew. "Black ship!" he cried, "Black ship! Black ship—"

"Pull it down," said Sakai Souji, "first give him ten lashes to wake him up."

The poor samurai was pulled down and whipped ten leather whips, his skin was torn apart and he was dying.But even so, he still mumbled the words "black ship" in his mouth.

One after another, samurai came to report, until the third wave of samurai, Sakai Zongshi finally figured out what happened.

A huge steel ship, flying the flag of the Nanjia Fleet, broke into Edo Bay openly.The shogunate navy defending the sea was defeated almost without resistance.I don't know what hit me at all.I saw a flash of fire on the big iron boat, and the boat on this side exploded.In just half a day, the entire army of the extremely elite navy was wiped out.

why?
Sakai Zongshi couldn't figure it out at all.It was a navy directly under the shogunate, an elite force equipped with ironclad ships and the latest western red cannons.Compared with them, Laidao Shuijun can only be regarded as a few small shrimps.

That's an ironclad ship!

He hammered the table in front of him, causing the pen holder to jump up.It makes no sense!He thought, the samurai who came to report must have made a mistake.The situation of sea battles is changing, and it is not uncommon to not see the flag clearly.Maybe it was the shogunate navy that sank Li Huamei's boat.If Li Huamei kills Lai Dao, she must have the captured ironclad ship in her hand.Those idiots thought it was the shogunate navy when they saw the ironclad ship, and they couldn't recognize it stupidly.

Well, this explanation makes more sense.The navy of the shogunate is extremely elite, how could it be possible to lose?

At this moment, there was a sudden bang, and the entire house in Daguangjian collapsed.Sakai Zongshi raised his head in surprise, and saw the huge fire beams pressing down on him, and then his eyes went dark——

Without such a good thing as time travel, Sakai Zongshi died.

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack!"

The samurai guarding the surroundings ran around like chickens without their heads, completely unaware of where the attack came from.

For no reason, Daguangjian suddenly exploded into a ball of fire.The samurai patrolling under the corridor were blown up to a height of eight feet and fell into a pond tens of meters away.

Someone hastily reported to the shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu.He arrived at the scene less than an hour after the explosion.

It was still too late, when the young general arrived at the scene, he only found half of Sakai Zongshi's right hand.He was still holding a tube of brush in his hand, the ink was still wet, and he was probably writing something.

The young shogun looked around with a puzzled expression. "What's going on here?" he asked.

No one could answer his question.No one could figure out why the place where Daguangjian was located suddenly exploded into a big pit.

"Perhaps... there was gunpowder in it? Someone ignited it?" a very young warrior speculated.

Tokugawa Iemitsu glanced at him and shook his head: "Sakai-san is not that stupid, put a pile of gunpowder in the usual office."

There is a strong smell of gunpowder smoke in the air, really like a gunpowder explosion.However, this doesn't make sense at all.According to the laws of the shogunate, the gunpowder used for firecrackers must be stored away from important organs, and there must be pools around them.An important minister like Sakai Zongshi has countless guards around him.Who can avoid countless pairs of eyes and secretly send a pile of gunpowder to his office?
In all fairness, Tokugawa Iemitsu was not a stupid shogun.He once went into battle with his grandfather Tokugawa Ieyasu and has seen bloody battlefields.However, a cruise missile weighing 200 kilograms flew from the sea surface of Tokyo Bay dozens of kilometers away, and accurately hit the office of Soshi Sakai.This matter was too unreal, beyond what he could have imagined.

It was a weapon beyond the times, so I can't blame him for his lack of knowledge.

On the Red Cossack, the Red Pioneer declared his achievements impassionedly, saying that he just "punished the villains of capitalism severely".It repaired the largest horn on the ship with some stock parts, and has since used it as its own propaganda machine.

Most of the people on board have long been accustomed to the "Red Ghost" yelling, and they yelled at will without changing their expressions.

Just now a team of patrolling marines was approaching, and the red vanguard was not polite at all, so it was suddenly dropped.

Looking at the burning ironclad ships on the sea of ​​Edo Bay, Nan Xiao shook his head.These ships are too slow, and they are almost fixed targets in front of the Red Cossack's double-barreled rapid guns.The Red Vanguard's aim is impeccable.Wind deflection, advance, sea undulations... All ballistic factors were taken into account, and incendiary bombs were specially replaced.One shot, one shot, nothing slipped through the net.

Many experienced shogunate sailors are now dumplings in Tokyo Bay, struggling desperately on the sea.

"Get a few people up, and ask for someone with a higher status," Nan Xiao ordered, "write a letter and ask them to bring it to Tokugawa Iemitsu. Tell him how Sakai Zongshi died. Tell him why Sakai Zongshi die. Then tell him...to surrender as soon as possible."

Standing in the middle of the deck, looking at the smoky Edo Castle, he said, "Tell them, if Tokugawa Iemitsu still refuses to sign the peace treaty by this time tomorrow, the shogunate will have to change a general."

Half a day later, a statement was presented to Tokugawa Iemitsu's case with trepidation.

As the beloved grandson of the first general Tokugawa Ieyasu and the eldest son of the second general Tokugawa Hidetada, Tokugawa Iemitsu received the best Sinology education since he was a child.He could see clearly the written statement in front of him, and there was no need for an interpreter at all.

"Bastard, rude!"

He hammered the table hard, his eyes were burning, staring at the calligraphy in front of him.

The short pleading, only a few hundred words, is extremely demanding.

The shogunate fully "granted" the power to issue Zhuyin certificates to the Nanjia Navy.From now on, Nanjia Navy has 100% exclusive trading rights of all ports in Japan.All foreign merchant ships must obtain a Zhuyin certificate from the Nanjia Navy before they can call at the port for supplies and trade goods.

This is too harsh, it is simply to let the shogunate die.

Is it tolerable, which is unbearable?How about summoning the banner warriors to fight against the pirates of the Ming Dynasty?
The chaotic times of the Warring States Period have just ended, and the smoke of gunpowder has not yet cleared up. Are you going to fight again?
No, it cannot be won. This is simply an unequal war.The pirates of the Ming Dynasty mastered terrible weapons, and once they chose to go to war, destruction was at hand.

destruction?

Yes, Tokugawa Iemitsu is pretty sure the shogunate won't win.

The death of Sakai Zongshi was an extremely ominous omen.

The destruction of a patrolling navy in Edo Bay is the best demonstration for this war.
