Seeing this, Li Dan and Yan Siqi could only thank Cao Ling. They brought more than two thousand people with them to escort the money and food. It was still very easy to loot a broken city!
Not long after, the Imperial Alliance Army was seen withdrawing from Anzhong City. Matsudaira Kubo rode a horse and galloped in front of Cao Ling, dismounted and knelt down and said: "Report to the Commander-in-Chief, the Imperial Alliance Army has been ordered to withdraw from Anzhong City!"
Cao Ling nodded slightly and said: "You have done a good job. I promised you that you could massacre the city for one day, but Anzhong City was given away by me, so you just feel aggrieved!"
Although Matsudaira Kubo did not want to part with the women and property in Anzhong City, on the surface he looked frightened and said: "The commander-in-chief has a duty to humble himself and he should be respected. How can he say that he is aggrieved?"
Cao Ling waved his hand and said: "A grievance is a grievance, and I am not an unreasonable person. Let's do this! I allocate 200,000 taels of silver to the Imperial Association Army, which is regarded as compensation for the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Association Army. !¡±
Matsudaira Kubo's eyes lit up, and he kowtowed: "Thank you so much, Commander-in-Chief!"
Cao Ling nodded and said, "Go and rest!"
Matsudaira Kubo immediately resigned, and then ran to tell the Imperial Alliance Army the good news. Sure enough, when Matsudaira Kubo told the dejected Imperial Alliance Army the good news, these guys immediately howled like chicken blood!
One day was not long. Li Dan and Yan Siqi's people looted Anzhong City. There were Han and Japanese people among them, but there was no difference in their attacks!
Although these people had been told before entering the city that they must abide by the "Slaughter Restriction Order", after a day of massacre, more than 10,000 people died in Anzhong City, and countless women were raped and humiliated!
Because people can be considered as looted goods, many women were robbed, and there was no telling how much property was robbed. In short, after the casino was over, when Li Dan and Yan Siqi¡¯s men left, they all had incomparable expressions on their faces. A satisfied smile!
After the massacre of the city, Cao Ling ordered people to guard the surviving Japanese in Anzhong City to build the Jingguan as usual, and then packaged and sold the remaining young men to the accompanying support fleet, and then the purge army continued towards Kyoto!
After conquering several cities one after another, Cao Ling's evil reputation has completely spread throughout the Japanese country. However, because the Tokugawa family was destroyed, many Japanese lords were leaderless, so they could not organize a resistance force at all!
When Cao Ling¡¯s army arrived at Zuohe City, the famous name of Zuohe City, Kato Jiaichi, was already waiting outside the city with a large amount of gold, silver, treasures and food!
Kato Yoshiichi was only in his twenties, and he encountered such a thing not long after he took over as the daimyo. The already weak Kato family knew that they could not resist the Ming army, so they decided to surrender directly in exchange for a chance of survival!
Facing the surrender of the Kato family, Cao Ling was actually very happy. After all, he came to conquer the Japanese country, not to annihilate it. Now that someone might surrender, he naturally would not give up this thousand gold to buy horse bones. Chance!
So when he saw Kato Yoshiichi, Cao Ling had a bright smile on his face, and even got off his horse and helped Kato Yoshichi up. Kato Yoshiichi was naturally very happy about this, and a big stone fell to his heart!
Cao Ling helped Kato Jiaichi and said straightforwardly: "I came here to attack the Japanese country under the imperial decree of our emperor. It was to eradicate the traitors for the Japanese country. Who would have thought that after the traitorous Tokugawa family was destroyed, his party members still refused to repent. , not only did not abandon the dark side, but also dared to make enemies of our heavenly soldiers. In order to fulfill the emperor's order, I had to resort to thunderbolt methods, which resulted in a lot of killings. This was not my intention. Fortunately, Japan still has Kato. A person like the head of the family, who understands righteousness well, can lead the whole city to surrender, so that the murderous karma on my commander's body can be reduced!"
Wang Quan translated Cao Ling's words, and Kato Jia almost cried when he heard it, and said in his heart: "You fought all the way here, and I don't know how many people died, and you dare to say that was not your intention? If it weren't for my Kato family, Those retainers are greedy for life and afraid of death, I'm afraid my Zuohe City is already a scorched earth now, right?"
Although Kato Jiaichi was secretly complaining about eating Cao Ling, the look on his face was very suitable for the situation. He even squeezed out a few tears because of his efforts!
Just as the tears fell, Kato Yoshiichi said with great affection: "Shogun, you are indeed a bodhisattva. I feel that you don't need to mind those who died. They deserve to die for trying to block your way. They should die in front of you." Hands, I can only say it is their honor!¡±
Seeing that Kato Jiaichi was so knowledgeable, Cao Ling patted him on the shoulder and said: "It's best if you understand me. Since you have surrendered, I won't embarrass you. As long as you donate three hundred thousand taels of silver, four Thousands of stones of food and grass will give you peace of mindBe your city lord! "
Kato Kato heard Cao Ling's conditions, which can be said to be painful and happy. Three hundred thousand taels of silver and one hundred thousand stones of food and grass are definitely not small sums for the Kato family. If they can take out these belongings, the Kato family will already be hurt. It hurts my bones, but if I can use these things to save the Kato family and Saga City, it¡¯s worth it!
Cao Ling was very considerate and knew that his loud mouth had already caused heavy losses to the Kato family, so he pointed out a clear path for Kato Yoshihiro!
Cao Ling pointed at the guys behind him who were supporting the fleet, and whispered to Kato Jia: "Since the head of the Kato family is committed to the Ming Dynasty, I can't let you suffer. Those people are my maritime merchants in the Ming Dynasty. They buy slaves and all kinds of things." For goods, the Kato family can cooperate with them, and I believe that the Kato family will make a fortune soon!"
Kato Yoshihiro was quite puzzled by Cao Ling's words, and he said awkwardly: "Sir General, I, Zuohe City, have very few resources and poor people. I really don't know what we can do with the Ming Dynasty maritime merchants!"
Cao Ling saw that the young man was not enlightened, so he said directly: "The products of the Japanese country are poor. Where can I find anything that Ming Dynasty can like? But the Japanese people can endure hardships and are good materials for slaves. The Kato family can do maritime business with Ming Dynasty." Cooperate and go to other vassal states to capture slaves. This is a very profitable business!"
Kato Yoshito¡¯s eyes suddenly lit up. The Kato family was considered weak among the neighboring vassals. Originally, Kato Yoshito was worried that without the suppression of the Tokugawa family, the surrounding vassals would attack him!
Now, as long as we can cooperate with Daming, we not only don¡¯t have to worry about being annexed by others, but we can also take the opportunity to expand our territory. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Thinking of such a bright prospect, Kato Jiaichi immediately knelt down on the ground, kowtowed to Cao Ling and said: "The general supports the Kato family in this way, Jiaichi will definitely swear to serve the general to the death!"
Cao Ling was very satisfied with Kato Jiaichi's attitude, smiled and helped him up and said: "Master Kato, remember, you don't want to serve me to the death, but to serve the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty to the death. If you do this, Wrong, you and I will both be in big trouble!"
Kato Jiaichi was shocked, knowing that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly apologized: "The general taught me that I was reckless. I swear that from now on, the Kato family will serve His Majesty the Ming Emperor to the death!"
Cao Ling then nodded with satisfaction and said: "That's right! From now on, the Kato family must work hard. As long as you become an example of Japanese daimyo's loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, His Majesty will not be stingy with rewards!"
Kato Jiaichi burst into tears and said: "These are the support of the general. The Kato family is loyal to His Majesty the Ming Emperor, but they will not forget their kindness to the general. Jiayi boldly prepared a banquet, which can be regarded as a blessing for the general. Please also invite General, don¡¯t refuse!¡±
Originally, Cao Ling was the commander-in-chief of an enemy country and should not easily accept Kato Yoshiichi's banquet, but Cao Ling didn't care at all. He laughed and said, "The master of the Kato family is so kind, and I am not polite!" ( Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
