Chapter 258: Deceive Zhu Yuanzhang to attack Japan! Ye Xuan: Attacking Japan in the first battle is the best choice!
In the imperial study room.
The bronze crane and copper stove exudes curls of incense. The incense is lingering, and the aroma is elegant and calming.
Zhu Yuanzhang wears a Yishan crown with two dragons playing with pearls. Most of his gray and white mixed hair is covered in the Yishan crown, and only the police hair and the hair on the lower back of the head are exposed.
He has a crescent-shaped gray and white beard all over his philtrum, and a gray and white beard on his chin.
The beard should be neat and not messy.
Bags under eyes with wrinkles.
The face looks old.
However, his brows and eyes revealed the temperament of someone who had been in a position of power for a long time, full of majesty, but at this moment, this majesty was tinged with a bit of astonishment.
Attack Japan?
He wanted to attack the Fanbang barbarians in the south, but the Fanbang island overseas was not included in his plan.
Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard.
Japan's national strength is acceptable.
If a war was launched against Japan, it would be terrible if Ming's troops were trapped there and unable to withdraw.
At this time, the Kamakura period in Japan had long ended.
This is the Northern and Southern Dynasties period.
The era of confrontation between the Northern Dynasty of Kyoto and the Southern Dynasty of Yoshino in Japan.
There are currently two emperors.
History books call it "Two Emperors in South Beijing in One Day"
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered whether it was feasible to attack Japan.
During the Yuan Dynasty.
Kublai Khan twice wanted to attack Japan.
Then, it all failed miserably.
In 1274, Kublai Khan ordered Hong Chaqiu to lead 440 men, 15,000 men, and 900 warships across the sea to conquer Japan.
They originally wanted to attack Kitakyushu in Japan first.
Japan at that time was in the Kamakura period.
So many soldiers and warships.
It stands to reason that Japan can be conquered.
However, a typhoon appeared in Japan.
Most of Kublai Khan's warships were wrecked or destroyed.
Most of the soldiers drowned or disappeared.
Kublai Khan could only withdraw his troops.
The next year, Kublai Khan saw that Japan could not be conquered by war, so he wanted to send envoys to surrender.
However, the envoy was directly executed by Japan.
Kublai Khan was very angry about this.
In 1281, when Kublai Khan destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty and unified China, he began his second journey to conquer Japan.
This time, he sent 150,000 people.
The troops divided into two groups.
Want to attack Japan.
However, after Kublai Khan's army, the Yuan army, landed in Japan, they were intercepted by Japan.
The casualties were huge.
Afterwards, the Yuan army at sea encountered another typhoon.
These hastily built warships simply could not withstand the torment of typhoons.
Therefore, the losses were heavy.
Kublai Khan's second conquest of Japan also ended in failure again.
Then, Kublai Khan did not want to launch the third expedition to Dongni.
But due to various factors.
Not implemented.
Although the Mongolian army of the Yuan Dynasty was good at land warfare.
The cavalry is strong.
But he is not good at naval battles.
In addition, Kublai Khan was unable to capture Japan because of the favorable weather and location.
But no matter how you explain it, it is difficult to cover up the fact that the Yuan Dynasty conquered Japan twice and failed miserably.
Through this incident, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that it was very difficult to attack Japan.
Japan occupies a favorable geographical location.
They wanted to fight overseas.
To win.
I'm afraid it's difficult.
Kublai Khan's two disastrous defeats at that time were naked lessons learned.
More than 900 warships were even dispatched.
Fifteen thousand people.
None of them defeated Japan.
If the Ming Dynasty wanted to attack Lower Japan, it would probably be very difficult.
The hot tea on the table exudes steam, has a delicate fragrance, and blends perfectly with the scent of incense without any conflict.
Zhu Yuanzhang rubbed his thumb on the side of the tea cup and lowered his eyes slightly, covering up all the emotions in his heart, making it difficult to understand what he was thinking at the moment.
"Love you."
"Don't you think the islands in the south are easier to fight?"
"The people on the southern islands are all barbarians from other countries."
"Whether it is weapons, financial resources, military power, etc., they are far inferior to our Ming Dynasty. Our Ming Dynasty only needs to dispatch iron cavalry to suppress them easily and make the southern archipelago a colony of our Ming Dynasty."
"As for Japan."
"Although Japan is now divided into the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there are two emperors.
"But strength cannot be underestimated."
"Decades ago, the Yuan Dynasty led an army to attack Japan, but what was the result?"
(bhdg) "Ai Qing is so knowledgeable and talented, so he probably doesn't know the fate of the Yuan Dynasty.
"We want to capture the colony."
"I want to plunder their wealth."
"Rather than want to waste our Ming Dynasty's human, material and financial resources."
"If we can't defeat Japan, we will only lose my wife and lose our troops. Even if we are not businessmen, we know that we cannot do such a loss-making business."
"My dear, what do you think?"
Zhu Yuanzhang analyzed the matter so clearly that he felt that Ye Xuan should understand the pros and cons.
Unexpectedly, Ye Xuan would still make mistakes.
It seems that no matter how resourceful Ye Xuan is, he is just an ordinary person.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought quite proudly.
He thinks Ye Xuan will definitely agree with his point of view.
"Your Majesty, I don't think so."
Ye Xuan said.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened instantly and he looked at Ye Xuan blankly.
He suspected that he was hearing hallucinations in his ears.
I analyzed it so clearly.
Didn't he understand?
Isn’t it clear whether to attack those southern islands or Japan?
Although Japan is an island country.
But the strength is there.
And it has superior geographical advantages.
If the Ming Dynasty wanted to attack Japan, it would probably be difficult to get any benefits.
On the contrary, it is the Southern Islands that are easiest to attack if they have the foundation but not the foundation and the strength but not the strength.
Zhu Yuanzhang secretly took a deep breath, suppressed the shock on his face, and stabilized his expression, "We would like to hear what Aiqing thinks.
He would like to hear Ye Xuan's opinion.
In his opinion, Ye Xuan made a mistake and now he is just trying to save the situation. What can he think?
Zhu Yuanzhang's dark pupils flashed with teasing.
Ye Xuan didn't know what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking, so he really analyzed the pros and cons for Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Concession, the countries in the south are not very strong and are easier to attack, but the terrain and forces there are complicated and difficult to defend after they are defeated.
"Moreover, Ming's strength far exceeds that of those countries."
"Those countries are also like a piece of scattered sand."
"However, when those countries realize how powerful and terrifying the Ming Dynasty is, their local indigenous people will probably unite together and form a large force to resist our Ming Dynasty's invasion."
"As a result, those countries are stubbornly resisting.
"By familiarizing yourself with the terrain."
"Even if our Ming Dynasty is better than the other side in terms of equipment, soldier quality, etc., the other side cannot let us please. If they want to hide and fight guerrilla warfare with our Ming Dynasty, it will be even more difficult for our Ming Dynasty to deal with it."
"Under various factors."
"It is not a wise choice to fight those countries in the south in the first battle."
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly.
Unexpectedly, Ye Xuan actually gave the reason.
There is reason and evidence.
But he had to agree, what Ye Xuan said did make sense.
