Chapter 568 How dare you shoot!(1/2)
Because of the misjudgment of Zhao Hongyu and the others, Takeuchi Hitoshi believed that these strange foreigners did not dare to bombard Osaka Commercial Town at all, so Takeuchi Hitoshi did not issue an order to evacuate the residents here.
In fact, he didn't know that the strange foreigners on the other side could not use common sense to infer the principles of their behavior.
What he didn't know even if he didn't appear, someone from the other party would find trouble and make trouble in Japan.
Therefore, no matter what, the shelling will definitely not be as he judged.
bluff?
Scaring people?
Hehe, Takeuchi Hitomi never thought that the people he faced didn't need this at all.
"I don't believe they really dare to fire, a bunch of bluffing guys!"
Takeuchi Hito stood at the dock with his hands pinched his waist, watching the warships on the sea shouting loudly to his subordinates around him.
"You all remember that these strangers have malicious intentions towards the Ishida Shogunate. You must spread my words, and no port in Japan will provide help to these people in the future."
In Takeuchi Ren's opinion, if these people don't agree with him, they don't agree with the Ishida Shogunate. Who made him the father-in-law of the current shogun Hiroshi Ishida?
Who made his daughter the most favored by the general?
Well, that's it. He now represents the shogunate.
The face of the shogunate has to be maintained by him.
The more I think about Takeuchi, the more I think this is the reason.
His men also felt that Takeuchi was right.
I think these foreigners are just bluffing and scaring people at all.
Although their warships look quite intimidating, do they really dare to fire?
You know, no matter how sharp their warships are, they are only fifty-two.
If they fired the gun, this nature would be different.
At that time, I will challenge the Ishida Shogunate.
The Ishida Shogunate would definitely react to such a provocation.
The best way for provocateurs is to use force.
Therefore, how could these foreigners have a way to resist in the face of the shogunate's military force?
After all, the shogunate represents the entire country of Japan and even controls half of the military power of Japan.
As long as these foreigners are not fools, they will definitely think of these things, right?
Therefore, no one thinks that the strangers at sea will really fire.
However, Takeuchi and the others did not find anything strange, that is, the many southern barbarians who were originally on the streets of Osaka Commercial Town suddenly couldn't see any one.
At the same time, even some merchants from the Ming Dynasty left the Commercial Town one after another.
It turned out that among the Southern Barbarians in Osaka, there was a merchant from Portugal.
This businessman has been to Manhattan in the Americas and has traded with Manhattan.
Therefore, he knew about the war between the Song Empire in the Americas and the war between the Iroquois.
Even, including at the beginning of last year, when the British gathered more than 400 pirate ships to attack Manhattan, he was there.
He knew exactly how strong military power was without it.
Because he knew the power of the Song Empire, he persuaded those Europeans in Osaka to leave this place of right and wrong immediately.
And he promised confidently that these guys from the Song Empire would definitely fire.
Because he knew the Song Empire very well.
The Song Empire is a typical country where you don’t give me face and I will beat you to the point of being convinced.
This country will not swallow its anger due to its strong military strength.
When this guy talked about this with the Europeans, some Ming merchants were also there.
After all, when he was talking, his European companions were talking about business matters with the merchants in the Ming Dynasty.
In this way, under his persuasion, the European merchants from the Ming Dynasty quickly left Osaka Commercial Town and came to a barren mountain not far from Commercial Town.
Everyone must believe me, these guys from the Song Empire will definitely fire.
By that time, if we stay in Osaka Commercial Town, we will be destined to die.
This Portuguese knew that even now, no one would believe him.
But for the sake of insurance, I just came out with him.
Therefore, he once again made a promise to everyone's chest.
Among these merchants of the Ming Dynasty, many of them had some doubts.
Because this guy kept saying that those strangers were from the Song Empire in the Americas.
The merchants of the Ming Dynasty in the Americas didn’t know, but the Song Empire sounded a bit familiar.
How could the Ming people not know about this Han country established since the Tang Dynasty?
But, wasn’t the Song Dynasty destroyed?
How could there be such an empire in the distant American continent?
Fortunately, because they do trade all year round and always deal with foreigners, these Ming merchants in Osaka speak fluent Japanese and Nanman languages.
Therefore, they understood the Portuguese.
I have to say that the language talent of ancient people was really strong.
"Sir, what is the origin of the Song Empire in the Americas you are talking about? Can you give me a little explanation? We don't know where the Americas are. We just want to know what the Song Empire is going on."
Anyway, everyone has left Commercial Town at this time, and the place they are now in is considered safe.
Therefore, it is better to take this opportunity to let the Southern Barbarians solve their doubts.
The person who asked about the question was an old man in Ming Dynasty clothing and a four-in-one unified hat over fifty years old.
Around him, there were also many Ming merchants of different ages gathered. From their faces, they were very interested in this.
Seeing so many people looking at him, the Portuguese businessman nodded.
Perhaps, taking this opportunity to get closer to these Ming people will also have some benefits in the future.
By then, the guys from the Song Empire fired, and they would just save them.
According to Dongfang, he is their "suppressor"... hehe.
Anyway, I have nothing to do now, so why not explain to them the origin of the Song Empire in the Americas and help these people relieve their boredom.
These Ming people are usually very proud and don’t want to make a relationship and talk.
Now that he has such a good opportunity, how could he not seize it?
"Okay, I'll tell you the origin of the Song Empire. This is not news in the Americas. Any European businessman who has been there will be clear about it."
This European businessman began to explain to everyone using his strange Ming language.
The old man among the Ming Dynasty merchants who first spoke up and raised his doubts was the capable butler of a nobleman in the capital of the Ming Dynasty. This time he came to Japan just to check the accounts.
By chance, he could not have imagined that he would still get an overseas wonder.
"If you want to talk about the origin of the Song Empire in the Americas, it actually has a great relationship with the East."
The Portuguese merchants said this, which attracted the eyes of the Ming Dynasty merchants.
"The citizens of the Song Empire in the Americas all claim to be the Yanhuang ethnic group and are descendants of the Song Dynasty hundreds of years ago."
hiss!
Is there something like this?
What a strange thing. Didn’t the people in the Song Dynasty all sacrifice their country on Yashan?
Yes, yes, are there still the remains who survived?
Don't make a noise, listen to this person who continues to say it.
The old man in the lead interrupted everyone's whispering, making them all quiet.
However, he was shocked.
"Yashan?" This Portuguese has a good hearing. He heard all the words that the Ming merchants whispered to each other just now. Among them is the word Yashan. "Oh, Yashan, it seems that those Song people said the same."
All of a sudden, the merchants of the Ming Dynasty became focused.
"It seems that they said that many people survived after jumping into the sea in Yashan. But under the threat of the Tatars, they could only cross the ocean to find a place to survive. And many ministers survived at that time. They also brought a child with the royal blood of the Song Dynasty. In this way, they went through a lot of hardships and arrived in the American continent."
This is really amazing.
Immediately, a Ming merchant lowered his voice and expressed his voice to his companions around him.
What's even more amazing is that these Song Dynasty survivors actually created a huge country.
To be continued...
