In fact, there is a problem that neither Liu Mingqi nor Liu Mingjing expected.

Everyone is preparing for the Japanese to kill Jiangnan.

What if they don't come?

Isn’t that just a preparation for nothing?

Liu Mingqi didn't think much about this.

It is much better to be prepared for nothing than not.

I think the rest of the people think so too.

So, will the Japanese come? When will they come?

The monarch, ministers and people of Dakang had no idea.

Similarly, many people are also confused on the Japanese Island far away overseas.

Several generals in their thirties were discussing this matter in the Tenshou Pavilion, located in Osaka Prefecture.

"Why haven't moved yet! I can't wait!" Guoshan Zuozhi, who was dark-skinned and like a hard-working peasant, had a loud voice: "What's the lord doing? Have you been blinded by the villain again?"

"Shut up!"

Nobuzuone Ikeno, one of the three gods, scolded: "Can you criticize your lord? When did you miss it over the years? Is it necessary for you to think about it?"

"yes."

Hiroya Uemura, who is one of the five major guard generals next to him, said: "It should be just a matter of planning. The lord will not let such a big thing go!"

"How did it do it?" Kuroyama Zuozhi sneered: "It's April now! The next two months will be the best weather and the tsunami disasters are the least. If we don't take advantage of this time to attack Dakang Jiangnan, what are we waiting for? Should we wait for the heavy rain typhoon in June and July to bury our heroic son-in-law at the bottom of the sea?"

After a pause, he rushed in front of Nobuzuo Ikeno and said, "Senior Ikeno, ask Senior Oshima! Have their naval army started to assemble? Has the work of recruiting ships begun? None of them!"

Shigejian Oshima, one of the three gods whom he named, was sitting cross-legged beside him and drinking tea silently.

Hearing this, he shook his head without realizing it.

Nobutsu Ikeno, who scolded Kokuyama Zuoto, suddenly became dumbfounded.

He actually had doubts in his heart, but he chose not to say it out.

"well!"

Katayama Koshiba, the last of the three gods, couldn't help but sigh at this moment: "Yes! As the saying goes, you must not miss the opportunity, you will never come again! Now Qiyan and Muro Wai are fighting Dakang in a mess. All their attention and army are gathering towards the north!

In addition, they have been suffering from natural disasters in recent years, and there have been great cleansings inside and outside the court! If you miss this opportunity, I, Japan, will have a chance to rise and grow in the year and year!"

Katayama Koshiba is the most persevering among the three gods.

Even he has such anxiety, and it is conceivable how the rest of them think.

At this time, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open.

As the sound rang, everyone looked back and immediately climbed up from the tatami, standing solemnly.

The first person to come in was a middle-aged man.

He is not tall, looks a little ugly, and he exudes a gentle aura and a faint smile on his face.

Such a unique charm will make people unforgettable at a glance.

He was followed by an old monk, who was very thin, and he was the first Japanese military advisor, Hidese Takeda.

"Master!"

Everyone saluted.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?" The person who came smiled and waved his hand, "Sit down, let's talk about it!"

While speaking, he sat in the middle.

This person is naturally the lucky one of Toyokawa, the general of the Japanese conquering the barbarians.

At the age of 47 this year, he has been in charge of Japan for more than fifteen years and is the most powerful person in Japan.

Looking at his confidant beloved players below, he looked both depressed, expectant and anxious, Toyokawa was so lucky that he couldn't wait: "What? They all couldn't wait? Haven't you heard of it before? Isn't you anxious to eat hot tofu?"

"Master!"

It was still Koyama Zuochi who spoke, "The good news that Mr. Takeda brought back from Dakang is the best opportunity for me in Japan in thousands of years! Now our allies have started fighting one after another, but we still do not move. The generals really can't figure it out, I'm so anxious!!"

He obviously did not take the sentence "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

It's not his fault.

Jiangnan is such a big piece of fat, which idiot doesn’t covet!

Toyokawa Matsuki smiled, "The situation is not clear now. If we go to Jiangnan too anxiously, we may suffer heavy losses and not worth the gain!"

"Didn't Qiyan and Shiwei have moved?" Nobuka Ikeno said in surprise: "As far as the Feiying passes the letter, the Western Qiang and Uighurs are about to move. Although Nanzhao is sloppy, they have set a time to launch it this month at the latest. How can the situation be unclear?"

"General Ikeno doesn't know anything." Takeda Hideen next to him said in a soft voice: "Qiyan and Muro Wei seem to have moved, but in fact they are not very active.

According to our spies' reward, the Qiyan Helda Suo tribe just fought a battle outside the Datong Great Wall defense line and stopped completely. There was no progress in more than half a month.

The same goes for Shi Wei. After they captured the first vanguard city of the Jinzhou defense line, they only surrounded Jinzhou City and wandered around Ningyuan City through Jinzhou City, without any conflict with the Dakang army."

"Qiyan has no benefit this time. They can fight a battle seriously and attract the Dakang army around Datong, so that the Dakang Imperial Army dare not move in order to protect the Gyeonggi area. It is a great achievement." Guard General Hiroshi Uemura also said in a deep voice: "And they, the Western Qiang, the Uighurs and Nanzhao, have little to do with us. The key is Shi Wei!"

"right!"

Toyokawa nodded with gratitude.

Among his many generals, they are roughly divided into two factions.

One is the three gods and the other is the five guards.

Among these three gods, Nobuzuone Ikeno, who is stoic, honest and resourceful, is the leader of the three gods.

Among the five guard generals, Hiroya Uemura's biggest advantage is his calmness, as stable as an old turtle, but when it was time for him to be radical, he did not hesitate at all and knew how to make choices.

Now Hiroya Uemura’s analysis is obviously seeing the key points inside.

"The Western Qiang, Uighurs, begging Yan and Nanzhao to fight Dakang, which only adds icing on the cake. Only Shi Wei to fight Dakang is our most important allies and... tools." Toyokawa Masaki said without any concealment: "If they do not put great pressure on Dakang, how could Dakang send more troops to rescue the Liaoxi Corridor? How could it be possible to transfer the Northern Navy?

The Northern Navy is everywhere, and there is a partial division of the Southern Navy. How much sacrifice does it take to break through the blockade and go to the land of Dakang? Isn’t it painful to throw the lives of the soldiers on the sea in vain?”

Kuroyama Zuozhi was stunned, but he couldn't refute it.

He really wanted to say that he could just rush over and kill, but the power of the Dakang Navy is obvious to all.

With their strength and no damage, the Japanese navy would definitely suffer a great loss if they wanted to fight them head-on.

Even if all the warships are pressed up, they will probably only chew off half of the strength of the Northern Navy.

Otherwise, in the past few decades, Japanese pirates and troops would have rushed into Jiangnan again and again to burn, kill and loot.

Even the ship cannot pass, let alone the troop transport ship carrying sergeants. The people on the boat feed the fish directly. Who do you think is willing to do such a loss-making business?

"So in the final analysis, the Mushiwai people need to attack more fiercely." Takeda Hideen said: "But they have not made any further moves now. What do you think is this for?"

"Haha, do you need to say it?" Katayama Kochai sneered: "Didn't we just want to get the ripe from the fire and attract Dakang's imperial guards to rescue Jiangnan, so that they can't rescue Liaoning... Then they can directly conquer Jinzhou and Ningyuan, eat up all this area, and occupy this area?"

"So we have to wait." Toyokawa Mayuki said: "Our purpose is not to kill Jiangnan, but to obtain immeasurable benefits from Jiangnan. As long as the premise of this benefit does not appear, we cannot act rashly, otherwise thousands of warriors will die in vain on the way, and we will be sinners in Japan!"

Zuozhi Guoshan still couldn't help it: "Lord! What if they keep moving and want to wait for us to move? Isn't it wasteful both sides?"

“No.”

Takeda Hidezen shook his head and said, "They have already placed bets, dispatched a huge army of nearly 300,000, and spent countless money and food. Could it be that they just returned it without success? It's impossible! So they will definitely fight!"

"They can't delay time." Ikeno Nobuzuka also nodded: "We are amazing but we can't get anything, but they are embarrassed... It is said that the third prince is the most powerful contender for the throne! What should he do if he goes back in shame this time?"

"So I've already sent them a letter to the Flying Eagle."

Toyokawa said leisurely: "Our 300,000 Japanese troops were blocked by the Northern Navy and the Southern Navy! If they wanted us to help relieve the pressure and defeat Dakang together, they must restrain the Northern Navy."

"Constraint alone is not enough!" Takeda Hidezen shook his head: "If the Northern Navy was only restrained, then their strength was not damaged. In the end, when we returned, we would close the door and beat the dog, and there was no room for resistance! That was the dilemma!"

"right!"

A short man next to him who had never spoken showed a cruel smile: "As long as they create opportunities for me, I will try my best to bite half of the bones of the Northern Navy!"

His name is Guiteng Inaozong, the largest name in Kyushu. He has five pirates and Japanese pirates in his hands, and the total navy force exceeds 20,000.

Although the quality of these people is not as good as that of the Dakang Northern Navy and Southern Navy, they are equally fearless and often fight with the Southern Navy.

"They definitely didn't expect you to rush to the north. That's our chance!" Toyogawa Matsuyuki looked at him: "Your Highness Guiteng, Japan's century-old national destiny is here, and you are the prerequisite for us to decide victory. Please fight to the death and make a fortune for us Japan!

I, Toyogawa, made a vow here. Even if you kill all your troops, no one dares to touch the Guiteng family's territory. And the Guiteng family has priority distribution rights for gold, silver, jewelry, women and children obtained from Jiangnan! If this vow is violated, I will be struck by lightning! I will never be reborn in hell!"

Guiteng Inago nodded after hearing this: "The general is so serious! This is related to the national destiny of our Japan. My Guiteng family will definitely fight to the death!"

"Actually, we still have a lot of strength to unite." Takeda Hidezen gave an idea next to him: "Are there still fewer pirates between Yizhou and Luzon? You can call a few and let them fight the Dakang Navy with us!"

Guiteng Inaozo frowned, "They are fierce and have no credit, so it's not a good idea to ask them to work together. What's more, they have no interaction with the Northern Navy, and they don't have to offend them at all!"

Takeda Hidezen smiled and said, "But if the Northern Navy of Dakang is in trouble, then the Southern Navy will definitely divide its troops to defend the Jiangnan waters of Dakang. The Southern Navy's strength is weak, isn't it just convenient for them to grab merchant ships and monopolize the waterways, and Dafa Tefa?"

"You said this...it makes sense."

Guiteng Inagori was thoughtful, "If we could win over all the top three, we would at least add five or six thousand people, and our strength would be further enhanced. With His Highness Oshima's naval army, maybe there would be a real problem!"
