Chapter 726 God's Will
"this--"
Yu Liangtai's answer was a bit beyond Yang Zhen's expectations.
Just now when Yu Liangtai talked about how to avoid future troubles, what came to Yang Zhen's mind was the tragic scene of a fire burning the ship, so his mood suddenly became extremely gloomy at that time.
But now it seems that Yu Liangtai's so-called elimination of future troubles was just to banish the ship where the dead rat was found to the sea.
From this point of view, my own psychology is much darker than that of Yu Liangtai and others.
"Very good. This is a good decision. You did nothing wrong."
Yang Zhen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. The words he finally said made Yu Liangtai and Yuan Jin suddenly look up at him, and Yu Liangtai's eyes lit up even more.
Facing Yang Zhen, who had no intention of pursuing any responsibilities, Yu Liangtai suddenly knelt on the ground, bowed his head and saluted Yang Zhen and said: "The governor can understand the hardships of the humble minister, and the humble minister can't thank you enough!"
"Get up, get up, get up, it doesn't have to be like this. Just talking about the matter, your handling is not wrong in itself. It's just that at the beginning, the inspection should be more strict. In the future, immigrants must be strictly quarantined when boarding the ship. This will not be an exception!"
"I understand the humble position!"
After Yang Zhen asked about the situation after the fleet transported immigrants to Yingzhou Island, he then asked about the situation when they passed Ganghwa Island on their way back.
When talking about this process, Yuan Jin and Yu Liangtai no longer avoided the important points and were cautious as before, but simply and quickly explained the process.
This time it was Yuan Jin, the commander-in-chief, who was reporting to Yang Zhen and everyone present.
"Yu Haichao, who is in the camp of Vice Admiral Yu, has traveled back and forth between Yingzhou Island and Ganghwa Island. He is familiar with the sea route, so our return trip from Yingzhou Island was very smooth. Although we encountered some Korean warships on the way, they only dared to stay far away.
Follow and don't dare to come near.
"It's just that the humble officials and others wasted some time when they arrived at Ganghwa Island to negotiate with the Korean people. Fortunately, the Korean people were afraid of our powerful force, and because of the secret agreement the governor had made with the Korean people before, the Korean people were weak and weak, and finally
On August 26, 20,000 shi of rice were delivered in full.
"The rest is the matter of Monk Dubu, Shen Qizhou, and Liu Zhiman boarding the ship and following them. The governor already knows these, so he will not repeat them in his humble position.
"However, it is worth mentioning that when we arrived at the mouth of the Qingchuan River to request the delivery of ore, neither Monk Dubu, Shen Qizhou, nor Liu Zhiman wanted to go ashore and meet Liu Lin, the Ping An soldier! I don't know what they were saying.
What kind of medicine are you selling?"
After listening to the general story described by Yuan Jin, Yang Zhen thought for a while and seemed to understand something, but he just nodded slightly and did not ask any more questions.
Because Yuan Jin and Yu Liangtai also traveled on the sea for a long time and were very tired from the journey. After Yang Zhen talked with them, he immediately asked Zhang Degui to accompany them personally and arrange a hotel for them to stay and rest.
But the meeting did not end. After they left, Yang Zhen, Qiu Zhenhai, Zhang Chen, Li Lu, and Yang Shen continued to sit around and talk.
"Captain, I have never been to Yingzhou Island, but when I was in Dongjiang Town in my early years, I heard that going east past Yingzhou Island is the boundary of Japan's Fusang Kingdom, which is what the Governor often calls the border of Japan."
After Zhang Degui led Yuan Jin and Yu Liangtai left, everyone served new tea, and then the guests and hosts sat down. Among them, Qiu Zhenhai couldn't restrain the doubts in his heart and immediately started talking.
"Will the ship where Vice Yu banished them to fend for themselves at sea - will it float across the ocean and all the way to that Japanese country?"
"That's right, Governor, I have also seen it on the surrounding geographical map that I collected from the Kanghua Remaining Mansion in Chaoren. Starting from Yingzhou Island and going northeast, there is the Japanese Tsushima Domain, going southeast
If you go there, you will find the Japanese Nagasaki Islands, Hizen, Kagoshima and other feudal domains, all in that direction!"
Qiu Zhenhai's words made the remaining people's eyes brighten. Zhang Chen, who had obtained the map of Li Dynasty and its surrounding areas on Jianghua Island, clearly stated the east of Yingzhou Island and the distance between Yingzhou Island and Yingzhou Island.
Several place names facing each other across the sea.
Of course, these places currently belong to the Japanese state.
However, precisely because these places now belong to the Japanese country and are inhabited by Japanese slaves, when everyone heard what Qiu Zhenhai and Zhang Chen said, not only were they not worried, but they were happy for a while.
And it's a joy of schadenfreude.
Especially Yang Zhen, when he thought that the Tsushima Domain, or the Hizen Domain where Nagasaki Port was located, and the Kagoshima Domain with the Hizen Domain on Kyushu Island, might be unlucky because of this, he felt a little overjoyed.
.
"The sky is really clear, the sky is clear! If this is true, then it is really God's will! Hahahaha——"
When Yang Zhen thought about the future epidemic of plague on Kyushu Island, he couldn't help laughing.
As far as the public is concerned, the Japanese pirates are feuds of the Ming Dynasty.
Personally speaking, Yang Zhen himself hated the Japanese slave country even more deeply.
But even so, Yang Zhen never thought about deploying manpower to divert the plague disaster spreading in the north of the Ming Dynasty eastward - to the Japanese slave country.
First of all, it is not easy to do this.
The Wonu Kingdom was different from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it was also different from the Li Dynasty on the peninsula. It was separated from the Ming Dynasty by a vast ocean. Even if I had such an idea, it would not be so easy to implement it.
Secondly, Yang Zhen still has his own moral bottom line.
Although hundreds of years later, the Japanese slave country used the plague against Yang Zhen's own compatriots, but if it were him, he would not be able to lower his moral standard to the level of the Japanese slaves.
Therefore, when the plague in the pass spread to Denglai, Hejian and other places, his only idea was to control it and not let it spread to Jinhai Town.
At the same time, we should try our best to help the government in Denglai prevent the epidemic, curb the spread of the plague as soon as possible, and minimize the population losses caused by the outbreak.
He never thought about taking advantage of the increasingly severe plague in the north of the Ming Dynasty to eliminate the active forces of the Qi Qing and eliminate the Li Dynasty population on the peninsula or the Japanese slave population on the Japanese slave islands.
After all, Yang Zhen still has a modern soul and is not a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.
In his opinion, even if he wanted to attack the Japanese slave kingdom east of Yingzhou Island in the future, he would have to use the strength of his own army to crush them instead of resorting to a plague.
However, this time, a small unintentional mistake by Yu Liangtai and the others might have sent the plague to the Tsushima Domain or Hizen Domain of the Wonu Kingdom.
Is this really God's eyes opened?
Of course Qiu Zhenhai and others didn't know what they did to their compatriots during the invasion of the Japanese slave country hundreds of years later, but Yang Zhen, the time traveler, knew everything.
They used all means including biological and chemical weapons, yes, biological weapons, including the plague.
"This is really a deliberate attempt to plant flowers without blooming, but unintentionally planting willows to provide shade. If Yu Liangtai and the others make an unintentional mistake this time, they will create a terrible situation for the remnants of the Japanese pirates who invaded our coast in the Ming Dynasty and the Japanese slaves who tried to occupy the Chinese territory.
A little trouble is a good thing!"
Yang Zhen is now unable to deal with the Wonu Kingdom in the east, but that does not mean that he has always tolerated the existence of this enemy.
If there really was something that shouldn't be on the ship that Yu Liangtai and the others were exiled from, then of course Yang Zhen would be very happy to see that they could eliminate several "powerful vassals" on the Kyushu Island of the Japanese slave country in advance.
Even if they can't be eliminated for a while, it would be good to be able to severely damage those powerful vassals.
In this case, when Yang Zhen leads the fleet to land in the future, at least the resistance encountered on Kyushu Island and places near Kyushu Island will be smaller.
"Create a little trouble for the Japanese slaves?"
Yang Zhen's deliberately understated statement made the generals present look at each other in confusion and murmur to themselves at the same time.
For them, if the rats on the ship really died of the plague, then once the ship arrived at Nagasaki Port or Tsushima Island, the result would definitely not be just a little trouble for the Japanese slaves.
.
Considering the size of Tsushima Island and the population of Tsushima, once the plague really comes to the island, the entire population of the island may be wiped out.
Moreover, if it is only limited to Tsushima Island, it will be good for the Wonu Kingdom.
The worst case scenario was that the plague was carried by ship to Nagasaki Port, and then spread to all the feudal lords on Kyushu Island through Nagasaki Port, and then spread to the entire Wano Kingdom through places close to Kyushu Island.
If this is the case, it is definitely not a little troublesome, and the entire Japanese slave country may be destroyed because of this.
Even if they were lucky enough not to be wiped out by the plague, the Japanese slave country would definitely suffer a sharp decline in population and its vitality would be severely damaged.
Qiu Zhenhai, Zhang Chen, Li Lu, and Yang Shen were all Yang Zhen's most trusted confidants, and of course they all knew about Yang Zhen's resentment towards the Japanese slave country.
At this time, looking at Yang Zhen who was laughing so happily, thinking about the heavy damage that the Japanese slave country might suffer from this, they quickly nodded and started laughing.
For them, they may not know much about the past events of the anti-Japanese war in the southeastern region of Jiajing Dynasty, but they are familiar with the story of the army entering the dynasty to fight against the Japanese in the late Wanli period.
In their view, the Japanese slaves were a feud of the Ming Dynasty and an old enemy of China.
In this case, when dealing with the enemy, you have to be ruthless and use all possible means.
This little episode that occurred when Yu Liangtai and his fleet were transporting immigrants to Yingzhou Island was a surprising surprise, but it was an unexpected surprise that no one had dared to think of before.
To them, since you are an enemy, it doesn’t matter how you die, as long as you die!
Does it make any difference whether he died from the plague or from the sword?
