Father can be an enemy to the country

Chapter 847 Let’s face reality

After Shao Erlai Pi returned to the central army tent, he heard Wang Bi say in a deep voice:

"Don't think that unconditional surrender is the worst result. The worst result is not accepting surrender! There is a world of difference between the two. At least the vast majority of you can save your lives, and you may even have a chance to keep your glory and wealth!"

"You have already missed the opportunity to surrender conditionally. Do you want to miss the opportunity to surrender unconditionally again?" Wang Bi continued:

"From the moment our army officially attacks Ono Castle, we will no longer accept surrender."

Then he waved his hand and said: "Send off guests!"

"Please!" The soldier said with a straight face, extending his hand to invite them out.

Several emissaries had no choice but to resign.

Yang Shiqi sent them to the west gate, and the envoy asked him through the interpreter: "After the official attack on the city, do you really not accept surrender?"

Yang Shiqi warned sternly: "In fact, last year, our emperor sent an envoy to issue an ultimatum. You ignored it at that time, so you should not accept your surrender anymore. It's just that our Highness has a good life and gave you another one." Opportunity, but in the end you still don't cherish it. There is a saying in our country, do it again and again, not again. You should do your best."

"We have two million people in Kyushu. If we really want to resist to the end, with your small force, we can exhaust you all!" A warrior finally couldn't help but said angrily.

"Our Da Mingguang army has four million, and we are just an insignificant vanguard." Yang Shiqi said with a cold smile:

"Now that your true and falsehoods have been discovered, there is nothing to worry about. Do you think our government will continue to increase its troops?"

"..." The samurai wanted to say that we in Japan also have Honshu and Shikoku, but when he thought of the tragic situation in the Kanmon Strait, he couldn't say anything.

"The appetite of an army of 100,000 people is completely different from the appetite of an army of 10,000 people." Yang Shiqi said seriously: "Think it over for yourselves."

"Thank you." Zhengzhi nodded heavily.

"Oh, by the way." Yang Shiqi seemed to have remembered it last, and whispered: "Let me tell you something, Korea already knows about our army's attack on Japan. Their king and regent Li Chenggui are actively writing letters, I sincerely ask my emperor’s permission for them to send troops for reinforcements.”

"Ah?!" After hearing these words, several emissaries couldn't hold back. Shao Erlai Pi said excitedly: "What does it have to do with them?!"

"Goryeo is already a province of our Ming Dynasty, how come it doesn't matter?" Yang Shiqi said lightly: "Besides, Goryeo has suffered from Japanese invasion for many years, and everyone from top to bottom has a score to settle with you."

"..." This is what the Japanese fear most.

One is that they had a deadly feud with Goryeo. When the Yuan Dynasty attacked Japan, the Goryeo Kingdom made great efforts. Later, when the Japanese pirates retaliated, they did not dare to provoke the Yuan Dynasty too much, for fear of triggering the Yuan Dynasty to attack Japan for the third time.

Therefore, the Japanese pirates always stared at the weak and shameless Goryeo and looted it. Every time they came out in large numbers and penetrated deep into the territory of Goryeo. The King of Goryeo, who often fought, left the capital and hunted in the north to escape.

If the Koreans were allowed to counterattack Japan, they would definitely come back with crazy revenge.

Furthermore, in the hearts of the Japanese, being defeated by the Ming Dynasty and surrendering to the Ming Dynasty are actually relatively easy to accept. Many people even have a vague feeling that their father is back again.

But it would be completely unacceptable to be pooped and peed on by a Korean.

"We absolutely cannot let them come!" the Japanese said in unison.

"Then it depends on which of you is faster." Yang Shiqi smiled. His Highness really has a thorough understanding of the Japanese and knows all their pain points.

In the next few days, the Ming army moved their positions step by step while conducting the final sacking of Dazaifu.

Now not only the houses of the top dignitaries such as the emperor, princes and young masters have been completely wiped out. It is already the turn of ordinary Kyushu rich people’s homes to suffer...

When the Ming army set up artillery in front of Daye Castle and prepared to fire, Daye Castle finally raised the white flag coquettishly.

Then, under the watchful eyes of the 10,000 Ming troops, the city gate slowly opened. Nijō Kagerayi, Shao Er Yizheng, Otomo Takashi, Shimazu Yoshiguro and other senior officials of the Southern Dynasty came out of the city in white clothes and surrendered.

Prince Huai Liang was also imprisoned in a prison car and given to the Ming army.

Wang Bi was riding on a tall horse, watching with indifference as Nitiao Sect Lai, accompanied by his second son, Lai Cheng, and Otomo Akashi, bowed through two rows of Ming army spears and came to him.

Nijōri knelt down and bowed to offer the surrender.

"Are you the king of Japan?" Wang Bi asked in a deep voice.

"No, I am a Japanese Guanbao Nijojiao Lai." Nijojiao Lai replied respectfully.

"You are not qualified to surrender and let your king come." Wang Bi said calmly.

"General, forgive me, we... His Majesty the King is ill and cannot serve him personally." Nijojiao Lai hurriedly said: "In our country, when the king does not care about human affairs, General Guanbai does it for him."

Wang Bi had expected this. His Highness had already told him that the emperor had a semi-god status in Japan and would never come forward easily when it came to matters of faith.

Then he said with a straight face: "If the king doesn't surrender in person, what is unconditional surrender? Then please go back. It won't be too late to surrender after he recovers."

Having said that, Hu Bo and the Ming army over there were not slow at all in taking over the city defense.

"This..." Nijiao Jiaoyuan and others looked embarrassed when they heard this. They had all read the history books of the Celestial Dynasty. We know that in the Chinese dynasty, when a country surrenders, the king must wear plain silk, disheveled hair, hold a seal in his arms, and personally ride a sheep cart out of the city to surrender.

But they don't have such rules. A few people forced themselves to explain. The emperor is a god on earth, and he has never had to and cannot be humiliated like this.

Wang Bi listened patiently for a long time, and when he saw that the Ming army soldiers had taken over the defense of Daye City, he followed His Highness's instructions and snorted: "It doesn't matter if he is sick and cannot be worshiped personally, then hand over the three artifacts. "

As he spoke, he said with an impatient look on his face: "All kings who surrender must hand over their national seals. Your national seals will not be sick and cannot see people, right?"

Nijo Kyorayi didn't expect that they even knew about the three artifacts, so he had to beg with a grimace: "The divinity of our king comes from the three artifacts, so the king cannot be called a king."

"Isn't this nonsense? Doesn't the jade seal of any monarch have this function? Are you the only one who insists on doing something special?" Yang Shiqi, who was beside Wang Bi, said at this time: "Let's talk about the Battle of Dannoura in the Kanmon Strait two hundred years ago. Your King Mingde jumped into the sea holding Tian Cong Yun Sword, one of the three artifacts, and the subsequent kings used fakes to make up the numbers, so it didn’t stop them from becoming kings?!"

"..." Nijiao Jia Lai almost fainted. This time the Ming people came really prepared and knew their history too well.

The Tian Cong Yun Sword is indeed a fake, so those myths about the Emperor are self-defeating.

It's just that everyone needs this demigod to maintain the country's existence, so they all choose to ignore this.

But when the people of the Ming Dynasty exposed the truth, it was finally time to face reality.
