Tokugawa Iemitsu looked at his trembling niece with a gloomy expression.

Not to mention that it wasn't Hiko's fault, even if it was her, Tokugawa Iemitsu could not do anything to her. Although the royal family has always been a puppet, the shogunate has changed generation after generation, and the royal family has always stood firm, which shows the importance of the emperor in Japan.

Tokugawa Iemitsu's power is far greater than his father and his ancestor Tokugawa Iemitsu. Even Tokugawa Hideyoshi was not as good as Tokugawa Iemitsu's Hideyoshi. After all, they all conquered the major names with force and succeeded in the Guiluo and Tokugawa Iemitsu's shogun. Through a series of sharp means, his control has penetrated into every corner of Japan.

But even so, Tokugawa Iemitsu did not dare to do anything but touched the Emperor. He was filled with a raging fire in his heart and stared at Emperor Akimasaki Hiroko and said, "Where is your father?"

The empress of Emperor Gomizuo is Tokugawa Iemitsu's sister. The two are not very different in age, so they should have a good relationship, but their relationship was in the same position as the same water and fire more than ten years ago, and they fought openly and secretly, and never stopped.

Xingzi was worried about something, so he bit his lip and said, "Uncle, I will take this matter with all my strength."

Tokugawa Izumi's face twitched violently and said coldly: "You take it? How do you take it? The edict of the emperor's seal to attack me spread throughout Japan. I don't know how many people asked me to step down! Matsuhira Nobuzu was defeated and the navy was destroyed, and 30,000 elite shogunate soldiers were buried under the sea! The Ming Dynasty was eyeing it, and the soldiers gathered in Guanmen Strait, and they could break through at any time and set foot on the Kyukuni Island! Some people took the opportunity to cause trouble, their attitudes were striking, and they all collected samurai, but they no longer obeyed the dispatch of the Mu Mansion... The island of the country is now in chaos... Do you think I should pass the throne now and go to the temple to secretly repair it?"

Tokugawa Iemitsu was originally full of anger, but in the end he pressed him down and didn't say much.

Hiroko could feel the anger of Tokugawa Iemitsu. Even though she was young and a puppet, she could understand the difficult situation facing Tokugawa Iemitsu.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Uncle, I am willing to marry the Ming Dynasty and the emperor, and ask the Ming Dynasty to stop the army."

The root of all is the invasion of the Ming Dynasty. As the Emperor, Hiroko planned to sacrifice her in exchange for peace in Japan, and also to relieve the confusion between Tokugawa Iemitsu and her father.

When Tokugawa Ikawa heard this, he became very angry and instinctively refused, but then his brows frowned and his eyes flashed.

The old man behind Tokugawa Iemitsu also looked slightly moved, looking at Tokugawa Iemitsu without saying anything.

For some reason, Tokugawa Iemitsu suddenly disappeared, but still looked angry and said, "You are all staying in the palace now, and you must not have any contact with the outside world. Also, tell him that if you are honest, otherwise I will let him shut up forever!"

Listening to Tokugawa Iemitsu's unconcealed murderous intent, Xingko's pretty face turned pale and bit her lips without making a sound.

Tokugawa Ikawa left the palace and entered the carriage, and said in a cold tone: "I surrounded the palace, and no fly is allowed to fly in and out!"

"Yes!" A samurai bent behind him and then quickly made arrangements.

Not long after, the shogunate army surrounded the palace and no one was allowed to enter and exit.

If it weren't for the stimulation of the daimyos everywhere, Tokugawa Izumi would have hoped that the palace would be washed away by snow.

Soon he returned to the general's mansion, Tokugawa Ie-kun was kneeling and cooking tea expressionlessly.

There were two old people kneeling in front of him, both of whom were loyal to the top five in Japan. The two of them lowered their heads slightly and looked solemn.

An edict from Emperor Mingzheng put the Tokugawa shogunate into an extremely embarrassing situation, losing the righteousness of commanding Japan and resisting the Ming Dynasty. Now, there are some voices from various places, not only those external daimyos, but also those of the shogunate daimyos, and even the shogunate relatives.

These voices are not groundless. For example, Tokugawa Iemitsu's adoptive mother openly broke into the palace a few years ago and forced the emperor to come out to see her, a "slutty woman". This incident was a humiliation to the emperor and was attracted by Emperor Gomizuo.

The whole country of Japan was naturally talking, and the voices accusing Tokugawa Iemitsu had not stopped.

In addition, Tokugawa Iemitsu was extremely harsh on daimyos everywhere, not only heavy taxes, but also kept their wives and children hostages in Edo. They also stipulated a six-year interview, which made them almost on the road for the whole year and almost lost control of the vassal states!

Now the disaster is surging, the Ming Dynasty attacks the Rising Scarlet, and Tokugawa Iemitsu is in charge of recruitment in various places. It can be said that one conflict after another was catalyzed and expanded at this time.

Fujita, the old man from the family, said, "Kun, things have not reached that point. Izu Shu can defend the Guanmen Strait. As long as the Guanmen Strait is another move, the Ming Dynasty will have to quit at most two months."

The autumn will begin to freeze in two months, and the war has lasted for so long, so we must rest. In a winter, we have to fight again next year.

Another old Songmu Road, "The public, although there are some discussions everywhere, are still controllable. As long as the strait is closed, nothing else will be a problem."

Although the two of them were cheering up Tokugawa Izumi, they also mentioned the fact that the Tokugawa Izumi's third generation of cultivation and resting, Japan has a good foundation. With Tokugawa Izumi's control over various places, no one can make a big splash.

After Tokugawa Ie-kun took a sip of tea, his face looked bad. He looked up at the two of them and said, "How long do you think Izu Mori can last?"

The people here are very clear that the artillery of the Ming Dynasty was already in combat power. Now more than 100,000 troops gathered, and Aoyama Tadatsushi only had 80,000 people. Even if they fought head-on, Aoyama Tadatsushi seemed to have no hope of victory.

Fujita hesitated for a while and said, "Izu is skilled in guarding military tactics, has been in battle for many years and has been in two months. It should be not difficult."

There is no such thing as "reasonable" in the matter on the battlefield.

Matsuki Road, "Don't worry, the newly recruited 30,000 people have already set out and will soon arrive at the east coast of Guanmen Strait to meet Izumao."

For Japan, the Shumen Strait is their portal. If this portal is held, Japan will be safe. If it is lost, Japan will be in danger.

This place is very similar to Shanhaiguan in the Ming Dynasty and is an fortress that cannot be lost!

Tokugawa Iemitsu is not a fool. He looked at the two of them and said with a faint look: "How long can the food and grass in the Guanmen Strait last?"

Eighty thousand plus 30 thousand means more than one hundred thousand, plus the previous one, the total number is more than 200,000 troops. Even if the food and grass in Japan has a good foundation, it cannot withstand consumption, not to mention, I don’t know how long it will last.

Fujita's expression was slightly condensed and turned to look at the pine tree.

The pine wood had a bad expression and said, "Before Naito Temple left, he raised food and grass for a month, closed the strait, and it would be no problem to hold on for a month."

This answer exposes the empty words they made Tadatsushi Aoyama last for two months.

But Tokugawa Iemitsu was not angry, and knew everything, and said lightly: "You guys say, how should we deal with it now?"

Fujita's eyes flashed slightly and said, "We need time to let the Ming army stop."

Matsuki was not as good as Fujita to understand Tokugawa Ieki and thought to himself: "It is probably impossible to stop the Ming Dynasty. If it is impossible to fight head-on, I suggest that Izumao take the initiative to attack. If it can defeat the Ming army's agility, it may change some situations."

Tokugawa Iemitsu ignored Maine Ki's words and looked at Fujita and said, "How can I let the Ming army stop?"

Fujita bowed and said, "Get married to the Ming Dynasty, the Emperor married into the Ming Dynasty."

Tokugawa Iemitsu listened, with no expression on his face and no words.
