Lin Mu straightened his waist unconsciously after seeing the docile look of the Japanese on the wharf from the moment he landed.
"Mr. Lin, please get in the car."
The small flag officer who received him greeted him, got on an ox cart and walked slowly towards Kyoto.
Along the way, Lin Mu saw those Japanese people working in the field honestly, some carrying burdens, and even unicycles that he had never seen before.
"This is already Daming's territory."
The small flag officer said proudly, "all literate Yingzhou people must learn again. In the future, they must speak Daming dialect and write Daming characters. As soon as the deadline comes, if they still can't learn, they have to work hard."
Lin Mu said curiously, "what about the people? Do you want to learn Daming dialect?"
"Of course." the small flag officer said confidently, "as mentioned above, the next step is to let everyone learn Daming dialect and try to forget the ugly Japanese within 20 years."
"Twenty years!"
Lin Mu thought of the time when his family moved from Fujian to Ryukyu. He couldn't help sighing: "in the past, he always thought Daming was far away, but now Daming is around. It's good!"
……
The next morning, when Lin Mu arrived in Kyoto City, he was surprised to find that it had become a big construction site.
"A city will be built here. It will be called Penglai in the future."
The small flag officer went to negotiate with people and soon returned to the car. The ox cart entered Penglai City.
Sanshen mountain in the East China Sea, Yingzhou, Penglai and abbot.
Today, Japan is named Yingzhou, and Kyoto is renamed Penglai, which makes Lin Mu feel a little clouded.
The ox cart stopped outside a large courtyard. The small flag officer got off and said a few words to the sergeant guarding the gate. Then he turned back and waved, "Mr. Lin, follow them in."
"Thank you for taking care of me all the way."
Lin Mu arched his hands and thanked, and then followed the sergeant into the courtyard.
All the way, he stopped outside the front hall, and then the sergeant went in and reported.
Lin Mu is a little nervous. His trip is supposed to be illegal, but he can't help coming.
After waiting for a while, the sergeant came out and said, "Mr. Lin, please come in. Your highness and Xinghe are here."
Lin Mu went in carefully, glanced at the head and sat down with two people. He didn't dare to look carefully and saluted quickly.
"Get up."
Zhu Zhanji sat upright and asked, "you're here for something important?"
Lin Mu said nervously, "Your Highness, small... Small..."
"Don't panic. Relax. Your highness won't order someone to hit your board, will you?"
Fang Xing comforted with a smile.
"Your Highness, the three Ryukyu countries have been practicing military recently. The young people are worried that they will be implicated under the chaos, so please kindly allow us to take refuge."
Zhu Zhanji was stunned, looked at Fang Xing, and then said, "you can wait and be at ease. The Daming army is on the side of Ryukyu. If they dare to fight you, they will naturally seek their own death."
Lin Mu blinked and said in surprise, "Your Highness, but... The three Ryukyu countries have Daming titles!"
Fang Xing covered his head and smiled bitterly. The former Daming was so kind to his vassal countries that even his people lost their self-confidence. He felt that Daming would not care about them in case of an accident.
Zhu Zhanji was also embarrassed. He frowned and said, "when you go back, there will be a mission. After that, you can live at will in Ryukyu. If someone provokes, the king can come in an instant."
Seeing Lin Mu's hesitation, Fang woke up and said with a smile, "the Japanese state has been destroyed. Do little Ryukyu dare to disobey Daming? Don't worry. Follow the mission in a few days and let the Ryukyu people see the majesty of Daming."
Daming's majesty?
Lin Mu went out with others. In the next few days, someone took him around Penglai City, but the temple was not among them.
Three days later, Lin Mu got on the ship with the three people's mission and went all the way to Ryukyu.
From the East China Sea, the Ryukyu Islands can only be regarded as a small place, and the small ones can't be any smaller.
But Ryukyu's position is very important.
From Yingzhou to Ryukyu, and then to xiaoryukyu, this string of large and small islands is a maritime defense line, a pearl chain defense line.
At the same time, it can also be used as an important offensive base.
It is said that the mission is headed by Wang He, followed by Jia Quan, and even Qi Huo with a bodyguard.
……
Naha, when the huge figure of the treasure boat appeared on the beach, 36 Han people on the island rushed out before the Ryukyu people found it.
"It's Daming, it's Master Wang!"
Wang he and others on board were preparing to go ashore in a small boat. They could not help but hesitate to see those crazy people running towards the shore.
"Who are those people?"
Jia Quan saw several white haired old men running stumble, but he still refused to stop. One of them fell on the beach. Two young people went to help him, slapped him away, and then got up and continued to run.
Lin Mu's eyes were filled with tears: "those are the thirty-six surnames that migrated from Fujian in those years. Every family such as US worships the memorial tablets of our ancestors and offers sacrifices on time. We just wish we could not return home."
Wang he was surprised, then moved and said, "wanderers! Wanderers who left their hometown for Daming!"
Several people hurried ashore in a small boat. When Wang he got off the boat, he was more anxious. A dog almost came to eat shit on the soft beach.
After stabilizing his body, Wang he picked up one old man and then went to help another. But when he turned around, he saw that the old man who had just got up knelt down again.
"I saw a big ship like this. How many years? How many years!"
Seeing the old man crying, Jia Quan was a little sad.
As a bodyguard of royal guards origin, Jia Quan saw many life and death, joys and sorrows, and he thought he was numb.
But today he was sad to see the muddy tears and the white foam from the shouting at the corners of his mouth.
Wang he helped up the kneeling and the kneeling. He was tossed and sweating. At last, he had no choice but to say, "our family came by the order of his Highness the emperor's grandson. Let's get up."
These people got up and stood respectfully.
Wang he coughed and said, "Your Highness heard that there was some trouble here. He was worried that our people would suffer losses, so he asked us to have a look. By the way, he warned these natives that our people in Daming are precious! No one is allowed to mess around! Otherwise, Master Wang will come in Yingzhou in an instant and destroy this morning food!"
"Father in law, is this true?"
An old man asked excitedly, his body still trembling, and his children and grandchildren hurried forward to hold him.
Wang he glared and said, "why isn't it true? Your highness said this himself. There are Xinghe and Bo on the side. Who dares to talk nonsense?"
"But the devil?"
An old man with poor eyes asked blankly. His children and grandchildren stamped their feet anxiously, and then hurried to ask Wang he for a crime.
"The small one is... Last year, I heard someone say that Daming had a demon God who specialized in killing Japanese pirates and building a mountain of heads to roll the heads of those Japanese pirates. OK! This is Daming! If the small one is not old, he must go to find Xinghe Bo and fight under his old man's command!"
