After that, we lost contact.
This place is so poor that even pirates don't come here.
"There weren't many boats that came, but each one was very large."
"The ship is flying a flag with the sun and moon on it, but we don't know which country it belongs to," the official said.
The island is isolated from news.
The officials were completely unaware of the existence of the Great Ming Dynasty.
Kim Bok, however, communicated with his friends through letters.
Knowing that the Ming Dynasty had risen to power,
They even became the suzerain state of Goryeo.
He shouted in a panic, "Quickly summon the officials of the prefecture to welcome the Imperial Fleet!"
A group of people gathered and headed towards the dock.
But then a large number of armored soldiers landed.
He was immediately terrified and turned ashen-faced.
Jin Fu hurriedly stepped forward to pay his respects, and said with a forced smile:
"Kim Bo, the governor of Tamna County in Goryeo,"
"Greetings to the noble sir of the superior nation!"
Xue Daoguang had no intention of showing off his power; he simply asked:
"Can you speak Mandarin?"
No one answered.
The ship's interpreter stepped forward: "Who can speak Chinese?"
Jin Fu quickly replied, "We can communicate by writing; I can write Chinese characters."
The translator said, "This is Xue Daoguang, the Ming Dynasty's Maritime Exploration Commissioner."
"The general leading the troops is General Zhao Xiaozhong, Zhu General,"
"There is also a naval admiral, General Ying, who has not yet disembarked."
Jin Fu quickly led the officials away.
We will pay our respects again.
The translator added, "The Ming Dynasty's fleet frequently travels to and from Tamna Island."
"Fresh water and food will be provided."
"I won't take your money for nothing,"
"I'll trade you cloth."
"Remember to renovate and expand the port,"
“Designate another open space,”
"To provide a place for the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty to set up camp."
"The tatami room also needs renovation and expansion,"
"For the rest of the nobles of the Ming Dynasty."
"sure!"
Jin Fu nodded repeatedly.
The crew and soldiers brought in some cloth.
Jin Fu went to check it out himself.
He quickly exclaimed excitedly, "This is ten liters of cloth?"
The translator said with a disdainful smile:
"From now on, we will use this as the basis for transactions."
"When the fleet returns, you can also exchange it for the island's specialties."
"In winter, the citrus fruits on the island are especially sweet," said Kinsuke.
“These were tributes offered to the king.”
"There are also other fruits and vegetables,"
"There are also many kinds of seafood."
"By the way, there are pearls, and they're all good pearls!"
"We'll discuss trade on our return voyage," the translator said arrogantly.
This thing actually comes from Pyongyang.
Now they identify themselves as citizens of the Ming Dynasty.
They didn't even respect the governor of Goryeo.
Having settled the affairs of Tamna Island,
Everyone should rest for two days.
They then headed towards Tsushima Island.
......
Chapter 3202 Tsushima Island
Tsushima Island was then part of Chikuzen Province of Japan.
It was governed by powerful local lords appointed by the Dazaifu government of Chikuzen Province.
This powerful family was the Abiliu clan.
Abiru Motomori is forty-two years old this year.
His family has been running this business here for generations.
He led his troops to the island after the "Daoyi invasion".
The so-called "invasion of the enemy with swords"
It occurred during the reign of Emperor Zhenzong of Song.
A group of Jurchen pirates from the Liao Dynasty
Under the leadership of the Goryeo pirates,
They crossed the sea to take Tsushima Island as a springboard.
Then they captured Iki Island.
Kill all the Japanese on the island.
They then went to plunder the Japanese coast.
The robbery lasted for almost half a month.
The Japanese imperial court was helpless.
The only option was to have local powerful clans send troops to resist.
After several fierce battles, they killed over a hundred pirates in total.
The Jurchen and Goryeo pirates then fled by ship.
They encountered the Goryeo Navy halfway there.
Defeat those pirates
They also returned 259 Japanese young men who had been abducted.
The main task of the Abiru family
They have been stationed on Tsushima Island for generations.
To guard against pirates attacking the Japanese mainland.
Even the Jurchen pirates,
Everyone knows that Tsushima Island is used as a springboard.
How could the Ming army not take this place?
But there are very few soldiers on the island.
Moreover, they all combined military and agricultural duties.
There are hardly any professional samurai to be found.
One day at noon, the fishing boats hurriedly returned to port.
It brought news that the fleet had arrived.
Abiru Motomori was horrified.
They urgently summoned only a few samurai.
He then ordered the warriors to gather the peasant soldiers.
The peasant soldiers are still busy in the fields.
The assembly speed is too slow.
When the Ming soldiers landed
Abiru Motomori's side
Only a few warriors, including his son,
And a few dozen scattered peasant soldiers.
He was so scared when he saw those big ships that he almost wet himself.
Upon seeing the soldiers in full armor,
I felt a wave of despair.
Abiru Motonori personally rode forward to ask him questions:
"I am the governor of Tsushima, appointed by the Dazaifu government of Chikuzen Province,"
"Where are you from?"
Why did you bring soldiers to the island?
The translator, from Zhejiang, reprimanded:
"Several years ago, the Japanese Emperor attacked a Chinese fleet without authorization,"
"His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty is extremely angry,"
"Today we have dispatched a large army to conquer them."
"If you know what's good for you, kneel down and surrender immediately."
"From now on, I pledge allegiance to the Great Ming Dynasty!"
Abiru Motomori was terrified and hesitant, realizing he had no loyalty to the Japanese court.
Historically, his grandson even fought directly against Japan.
Ultimately, they were defeated and lost Tsushima Island.
Zhao Xiaozhong glanced at the small pony the other man was riding.
This thing isn't even as good as the warhorses of the Southwest.
He simply mounted the warhorse he had brought with him on the ship.
Holding a long spear, he charged forward and shouted:
