    But what makes Maori Asaki even more chilling is that the Ming soldiers around him did not show a look of ridicule towards them. These soldiers in khaki military uniforms with faces as cold as the cold wind had strong murderous intent in their eyes.  Obviously they did not come to the Japanese country to have fun, but to kill!

    After calming down, Maori Qianming began to think about how to tell the general of the Ming Dynasty to delay at least three days. At this time, he had a sense of responsibility that the survival of the Japanese country depended on him, but what to do about this matter specifically?  Maori Qianming was really unsure!

    finally!  Mao Li Qianming was brought in front of Cao Ling. Looking at the Ming Dynasty general who was riding a tall horse with a stern expression, Mao Li Qianming felt deep down in his heart that he was dwarfed by Cao Ling, even though he didn't want to admit it.  Lowered your stance!

    "I'm the shogunate veteran, Asaki Mouri. I wonder what this Ming general with such a high surname has done to lead an innocent army to our country?" Asaki Mouri leaned on his horse and asked very politely!

    "Lao Zhong?" Cao Ling looked at Maori Qianming and said with a smile: "I heard from Matsudaira Kubo that your Japanese shogunate is full of strange official positions, such as Da Lao, Lao Zhong, Daimofu and the like.  Thinking that that old boy Tokugawa Hidetada actually sent an old man here, tell me, what are you doing here?"

    After listening to the interpreter's translation, Maori Asaki felt really confused. He had clearly stated his purpose just now, so why was the Ming general still asking him what he was here for? Moreover, he also mentioned Matsudaira Kubo. It seemed that this time  The Ming Dynasty's attack on the Japanese country had something to do with Matsudaira Kubo. For a moment, Maori Asaki didn't know whether to answer Cao Ling's question or ask about Matsudaira Kubo!

    But Asaaki Mouri had helped Tokugawa Hidetada handle government affairs for many years after all. He stabilized his mind a little and still asked humbly: "The general sent me here to ask why the Ming Dynasty attacked the Japanese country. Could you please  The general of the Ming Dynasty told me that if there is any disrespect to the Japanese country, our general is willing to ask the leader of the Japanese country to sincerely apologize to the Ming Dynasty!"

    "Hmph!" Cao Ling twitched the corners of his lips and sneered: "Tokugawa Hidetada is clever, but his little cleverness is of no use. Although your Japanese country is not very good, the Emperor of the Ming Empire has taken a liking to it.  Here, we plan to use the land of the Japanese country to build a garden for entertainment. You Japanese people just work as slaves for His Majesty. Go back and tell Tokugawa Hidetada and ask him to surrender immediately with his family and deployment, otherwise I will kill everyone in Jiang.  Everyone in Hucheng!"

    Maori Qianming's eyes widened, and after a while he said: "This is really outrageous. Even if the Ming Dynasty is powerful, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty cannot just treat the Japanese country as a garden to enjoy, and he must also treat the Japanese  It is unacceptable for all Chinese people to be treated as slaves!"

    Cao Ling looked solemn, raised his fists to the sky and said: "You Japanese have also studied the Four Books and Five Classics. Don't you know that the whole world is not the king's land, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers? What's more, your king is always dispatched.  The envoys paid tribute, which shows that the Japanese country has always yearned for the Ming Dynasty. This time, our Majesty, the Ming Dynasty, has graciously accepted the Japanese country. This is a great favor. You, the Japanese country, should be extremely grateful. You old man dares to push back and resist.  , don¡¯t you want to live anymore?¡±

    Before Cao Ling finished speaking, the cavalry escorting Mao Li Qianming immediately showed their short crossbows. Being pointed at hundreds of short crossbows, Mao Li Qianming's hairs stood up. The guards around him also held their swords nervously.  But these people all know that there is no way they can do anything under so many short crossbows!

    Although he felt greatly insulted, Maori Qianming still maintained a clear sense. He lowered his posture and said as tactfully as possible: "My lord general, Ming Dynasty is a country of etiquette. I believe in Ming Dynasty."  His Majesty the Emperor is also a benevolent monarch. Please tell His Majesty the Ming Emperor that the Japanese country is willing to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty 500,000 taels of silver and 500 beauties every year. I only ask His Majesty the Ming Emperor to let the Japanese country go!"

    Mouri Asaaki also got instructions from Tokugawa Hidetada, and now he is setting prices completely randomly. Anyway, what he wants in his mind is to delay it for three days as much as possible. As long as the shogunate's army is ready, these Ming people will naturally not have the opportunity to be arrogant again.  Then the humiliation suffered today will naturally be repaid twice as much!

    After Mao Li Qianming opened the bid, Cao Ling's face showed a smile. In Mao Li Qianming's eyes, that smile represented stupidity and greed. This also made Mao Li Qianming feel relieved. As long as Daming covets silver and beautiful women  , then your task will be completed!

    Who knows that at this time, Cao Ling took out a roll of imperial edict from his arms, held it high above his head and shouted: "Since the Japanese country is willing to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, let Tokugawa Hidetada come to receive the edict!"

    Gross profitWho would Ming have thought that Cao Ling still had this hand?  He was a little overwhelmed for a moment, but Cao Ling would not give him a chance to make excuses, and said directly: "I know that Tokugawa Hidetada dare not come out, so it is up to you to accept the order. Kneel down and accept the order!"

    Mouri Asaki was even more confused this time. He was a veteran and was not qualified to accept the Ming Emperor's imperial edict on behalf of Tokugawa Hidetada. What's more, he was just here to delay time. If he really knelt down to accept the imperial edict, he would be regarded as a Japanese country in the future.  Winning this battle is also a huge stain on him. If he is taken advantage of by someone with intentions, it will be extremely detrimental to his career!

    Just when Mao Li Qianming hesitated, Cao Ling's face turned cold: "What? You don't want to accept the order?"

    Maori Asaki hurriedly said: "I am an official of the Japanese country, how can I kneel down to accept the imperial edict of the Ming Emperor? Why don't you ask the general to hand over the edict to me, and let me forward it to my general, what do you think of the general?"

    Cao Ling listened to Mao Li Qianming's words and sneered: "I have said that the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers. I, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, am the common master of the world, and the imperial edict is your Majesty's will.  If you don¡¯t kneel before the imperial edict, you are deceiving the emperor, and that will lead to death!¡±

    Mao Liqianming saw that Cao Ling was threatening him like this. Although he was scared, he still held on and said: "The Japanese country is not the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and I am not a minister of the Ming Dynasty. I will not accept this holy decree!"

    Cao Ling still held the imperial edict high and said in a cold voice: "You have a lot of backbone. Then let me see how much backbone you have. Keep him and kill his guards!"

    As soon as Cao Ling finished speaking, the expression of the interpreter beside Mao Li Qianming changed. He pulled out his sword and prepared to resist, but Cao Ling's cavalry moved faster. There was only a sound of bow strings, and the interpreter beside Mao Li Qianming  The guards were all out of range of the hedgehogs. Such a change directly scared Maori Asaki out of a cold sweat!

    Cao Ling stared at Mao Li Qianming with cold and bloodthirsty eyes, and asked: "Kneel or not kneel? You can live if you kneel. If you don't kneel, you will die now. However, I believe that not all people in the Japanese country will be like this."  For a person with such integrity as you, I believe that someone will eventually take over this imperial edict, but you won¡¯t be able to see it by then!¡±

    This passage was translated by Wang Quan, who was beside Cao Ling, to Mao Li Qianming. After listening to this passage, Mao Li Qianming felt aggrieved and frightened. In the eyes of Japanese people, the Ming Kingdom was a huge but not dangerous country.  Monster, even after the defeat in the Korean War, many Japanese people did not have much respect for the Ming Dynasty!

    Some people even think that given the strength of the Ming Dynasty, it can be said that the Japanese country was able to compete with it for eight years, which can be said to be the glory of the Japanese country. So after the Korean War, the Japanese country was not as powerful as the Battle of Baijiangkou in the Tang Dynasty.  Later, he sent envoys to learn from Ming Dynasty!

    But today, the impression Daming had on the Japanese people was completely overturned. Daming was no longer the gentle and gentle man who could even be bullied from time to time. Instead, he became an extremely violent giant!

    Moreover, Mao Li Qianming knew very well that Cao Ling's words were correct. If he didn't kneel, someone would kneel. Mao Li Qianming felt that it was not worth risking his life for this matter of kneeling or not, so in desperation, Mao Li Qianming  Ming could only dismount and kneel in front of Cao Ling. Beside him were ten guards who were either dead or still wailing!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
