Chapter 103 The road ahead is long, the loyal bones are paved
Hojo Toshizo really had no choice but to be a living person, hoping that Zhao Wei could help him rescue the second city.
However, Brother Shi Zong is still too naive!
If you change someone, because of the same position between the two countries, you may have really taken the lead.
But Zhao Wei... This guy is just a bitch, who dares not cheat? Not to mention you, Hojo Toshizo.
It’s just a meat bun to beat a dog, and there is no return.
Just the second day after Hojo Toshizo entrusted the important task, Daozhu Wang and Ma Erye quietly left Kamakura Castle.
The two of them came to a steep seashore called Katsukata, a seaside outside Sagami Bay, with the customs clearance documents issued by the Japanese and holding the banner of the envoys from the Mongolian Yuan.
The shore here is steep, shallow water, and there are many dangerous shoals. Whether in Japan or the Yuan army, they will never get close to them. Even Japanese fishing boats rarely sail here.
At this time, a warship without any flags was docked here.
On the ship, Yan Haiwa, the commander of the Song naval army, and Zhao Ye, the king of Song Lu.
When Wang Sheng and Ma Erye were following the boat, Zhao Ye couldn't wait to greet him.
"Wang Duan Ning was a rash act. Didn't he agree to go to save Wen Xiang? Why did he come to Japan again? Why didn't Taoist priest and Xiao Yi dissuade him? Why did Mr. Xie let the trouble?"
"Oh, you guys are talking! This place of the four battles in Japan also involves me, and I'm talking about it! But why?"
The little mouth was like opening the floodgates and discharged the flood. Mr. Ma rolled his eyes speechlessly. We wanted to say, but can you shut up first?
He stole an empty gap: "The fourth brother is here and there is a reason for the fourth brother! Your Highness doesn't think about it. Your Highness is a hundred times more dangerous in Dadu, and he has never complained. If King Lu is afraid, he can go back to Fusang!"
This was not polite at all, and Zhao Ye was completely silent and could not break out for a long time.
Haiwa couldn't stand it and defended Zhao Ye, "Brother Xiao Yi, please say a few words! Your Highness is just as kind as you see you, and you rarely do this in normal times."
After that, he grinned, "Tell me quickly, the fourth brother gathered us all to Japan, but I want to find the bad luck of the Yuan army?"
Ma Erye smiled and punched Haiwa, "I know how to fight and kill! No."
Take out a sea map from your arms, which is a detailed map of the sea near Japan.
"Pick a group of elite sailors and soldiers, and you can take ten large 500-material ships here."
Haiwa looked at it, "Muo?"
"right!"
Mr. Ma took out another Hojo Toshizo's command to enforce power, "Take this to Muro's Japanese army, and they will give us ten large ships to take over. Then, along with our ship, hang the Yuan flag, and drive into the west coast of Japan on Jordan Island to wait for my news."
Jordan Island is a deserted island next to the west coast of the island, and is a place where criminals in Japan are exiled.
Therefore, neither the Japanese navy nor the Yuan Dynasty navy would come to this island easily. Haiwa hid here, which was very safe.
More importantly, Jordan is not far from Kanazawa and can be reached in just one day.
After Zhao Wei finished his work, he could transport the craftsmen away immediately.
He told Haiwa and Zhao Ye all the plans of Zhao Wei, "When the time comes, we will see you again! Take the man and send him back to your hometown immediately."
Master Ma's eyes were green, "More than 10,000 craftsmen! Even if they can't be transported away, no one of the three thousand swordsmen can be missing."
Haiwa is absolutely irresistible, but Zhao Ye frowned and interrupted, "Since all the craftsmen are in Ishikawa, why not pick up people in Ishikawa and go to Kanazawa?"
Mr. Ma was not obeying him, and he was deeply concerned, "We also think Ishikawa is more convenient, but... but the fourth brother said that his intuition told him that Hojo Toshizo didn't tell the truth, and Kanazawa must have hidden a big secret."
Zhao Ye was speechless, looking at the map and thinking, what secrets can a newly built Buddhist temple hide?
After assigning the task to Zhao Ye and Haiwa, Ma Erye and Taoist Master did not dare to stay for too long, and returned to Kamakura in a hurry.
At this time, Kamakura Castle had already started to move.
Without the worries of the two cities, Hojo Toshizo didn't want to stay for a moment. He had already begun to rectify the military and civilians of Kamakura and evacuated Muro in a planned manner.
As for another factor that restrains Hojo Toshizo Sect - the Emperor. Haha, it was no longer a problem when I learned that Zhao Wei was an envoy to negotiate peace.
When the emperor surrenders, it is up to Zhao Wei and Xie Dieshan to decide. As long as it drags on for a long enough time, it will be enough for Hojo Toshizo to evacuate.
However, he did not expect that Zhao Wei was not just "drag" when it comes to the issue of the Emperor, but he actually gave Hojo Toshizo a big gift.
Three days later, Zhao Wei took the reply letter from Hojo Toshizo to Commander Hakuyan and prepared to leave Kamakura and rush to the battlefield of Kanazawa and Ishikawa.
In the official letter, Hojo Toshizo was quite polite, saying that he would carefully consider the possibility of surrender.
In fact, it is still a delay, used to hand over the mission to Zhao Wei.
The night before leaving, the shogunate ministers invited the envoys of the Yuan Dynasty to be kind to each other.
However, Zhao Wei was a little surprised. He stayed in Kamakura these days, but there was an old acquaintance who had never seen him.
This person is Xie Zhongyuan, the Han aide next to Hojo Toshizo.
Today's farewell banquet was attended by everyone in the shogunate, and Xie Zhongyuan was naturally among them.
However, whenever he had eyes with Zhao Wei, he would dodge, and he seemed to have no desire to have further contact with Zhao Wei.
Taking advantage of the opportunity that everyone was drunk and confused after 30 years of drinking, Zhao Wei took the initiative to sit next to Xie Zhongyuan, "Brother Xie is hiding from me?"
Zhao Wei has this kind of personality and will never go around when he can go straight.
Xie Zhongyuan was not panicked when he heard this and raised a wine cup to Zhao Wei, "Then Zhongyuan will give you a glass to Your Highness, just to be accompaniment!"
“…”
It is neither far nor near, neither salt nor light, and a light sentence that not only avoids Zhao Wei's questioning, but also shows enough politeness.
And Zhao Wei was like a punch in the cotton, as uncomfortable as he would be.
"What the hell is going on?" Zhao Wei was speechless, "Although you and I only met in a hurry last time, at least they were from Song people, so they had to kiss a lot. Why did this time..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xie Zhongyuan drank the wine in the cup and smiled bitterly, "Song people...hehe, your highness is still too proud of Xie."
Turning to look at Zhao Wei, "I was born in Japan, am I still a Song Dynasty native?"
"This..." Zhao Wei was speechless, Xie Zhongyuan was just talking to death.
I kept silent, just waiting for the following words from Zhongyuan.
I saw him drink three more cups in a row, and then he gave up with a red look.
Shaking twice, staring at Zhao Wei again, "What's wrong with each of them for their own lords?? I'm not bad at treating me well, what's wrong with getting rid of the clichés between the Central Plains and Your Highness?
The Song Dynasty has fallen and fled far away from the sky. I thanked Zhongyuan and only wanted a place to live. What's wrong with it?
He led Japan into Fusang and competed for territory with the Song Dynasty, but how many people in the Song Dynasty had only taken up? How much place could it occupy? Why can't others share it?"
Asked questions one after another, Zhao Wei was confused.
I was afraid that he would really drink too much, so I let the Yuanren listen to the deadly things, so I had to say, "Brother Xie is not wrong, Wei is not blamed."
Xie Zhongyuan sneered, "You are not guilty? What's the use of you? My father blamed me! My father also said that I am a traitor."
Zhao Wei: "..."
Zhao Wei was also speechless, looked around and smiled awkwardly, "Another Lord is really... a loyal and righteous man. He has been away from the country for so many years and has not forgotten his hometown. If it is convenient, please tell him Wei's respect."
Xie Zhongyuan: "It's too late, no chance!"
Zhao Wei: "What does it mean?"
Xie Zhongyuan: "He has returned to Zhongyuan."
"Return..." Zhao Wei was puzzled, "What are you going to do when you return to the Central Plains?"
Xie Zhongyuan did not answer, and copied the wine pot, drank it with a teapot, and hopped it splashed.
Finally, he grabbed Zhao Wei's shoulder and wanted to tuck his fingers into the flesh.
"Your Highness... Take care of it all the way! One day, if you get your wish, don't forget... Along the way, many loyal bones of Song people pave the long road... Don't forget... My stupid old father... is called Xie Guoming!"
After saying that, Xie Zhongyuan struggled to sit up and staggered to attend, which attracted everyone's attention.
Zhao Wei was still confused and stared at him disappearing into the night.
A loud tone came from afar:
"I was originally... the black-hearted wolf on Fengxiang Kankan!"
"Worship the moon on the earth and the hills...Capture sheep in the hills..."
