Zhuge Weidao just mentioned two conditions, and Tokugawa Qi Zhao already felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave!
A person of his status certainly knows the importance of heavy industry and navy to Japan, otherwise Japan would not be desperate to develop heavy industry and navy.
If Japan has no heavy industry and no navy, then Japan will always have to rely on "Japan's manpower and material resources to please Zhuge's military advisers". If it wants to turn around and counterattack, don't even think about it.
Seeing that Tokugawa Qi Zhao was silent, Zhuge Weidao then continued to put forward conditions - he still had more conditions! The dog leashes given to Japan could not only be two, but a few more were needed to be safe.
"Japan's financial efficiency is too low, and Ming capital and management must be introduced." Zhuge Weidao continued, "In addition, Japan's currency is too confusing, incompatible with East Asia and Southeast Asia, and is very inconvenient. If Japan really wants to
If you accept the help of the Ming Dynasty and become a member of the Ming Dynasty system, you should give up your own currency and use the Ming Dynasty's silver yuan as the only legal tender."
Without its navy and heavy industry, Japan just lost its room for growth and the possibility of resisting the Ming Dynasty. But it was still a bit difficult for the Ming Dynasty to completely control Japan. But once Japan completely handed over its financial sovereignty to the Ming Dynasty, it would be equivalent to giving up everything.
They were all given to Ming Dynasty and allowed to be used by Ming Dynasty.
Hearing this condition, not only Tokugawa Qi Zhao's expression changed drastically, but even Zong Yixi was shocked.
"Strategic Advisor," Zong Yixi reminded, "The Daikoku family's Ginza is also one of Japan's minters!"
Zhuge Weidao glanced at Zong Yixi and said, "Master Zong, do you really think that as the military advisor of the Zhuge family, I need the money from the Dahei family?"
Yes, he doesn't need it!
If Zhuge Weidao is not a military advisor now, of course he needs the Dahei family's money - but now, he is one of the eighteen military advisors of the Zhuge family! The Zhuge family's family property is extremely huge, and it is all controlled by the military advisor group.
The benefits of participating in the management of family property have greatly exceeded the wealth that the Dahei family can provide.
In addition, the Zhuge family can always seize the opportunity to make a fortune, and their military advisors are good at calculating, so money is just a number to the people in power of the Zhuge family.
Zhuge Weidao added: "Japan's agricultural product market must also be opened. Japan cannot be self-sufficient in food. The people look short and small, with yellow faces and thin muscles. They are just hungry! They don't even have to eat, but they still have so much energy to do it.
Live and fight? So Japan must import a large amount of food to feed the people first, and then consider other things."
Let Japan open its agricultural products market, of course, in order to destroy Japan's rice industry in one fell swoop!
At the same time, the purpose of feeding the Japanese people is to make Japan permanently dependent on imported food. Of course, Japan does not have enough rice to eat, but there are two ways to solve the problem. One is to import, and the other is to suffer from hunger.
Japan now only imports a small amount and mainly relies on starvation to solve the problem of food shortage.
In Japan today, if a family can eat three meals a day, including rice, and still be full, it is definitely not an ordinary family.
This situation is quite miserable, but the Japanese have long been accustomed to being hungry. However, it is easy to move from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to move from luxury to frugality. If we start to feed the Japanese now, then in ten or twenty years, the Japanese will
I forgot how to starve. Then suddenly one day, if the Ming Dynasty cuts off Japan's overseas food routes, Japan will immediately fall into chaos.
If Japan loses its heavy industry and navy, relies on the Ming Dynasty for its energy supply, food supply, and its finance and currency are completely controlled by the Ming Dynasty, then Japan can be said to be completely controlled by the Ming Dynasty. It is simply a fantasy to want to get rid of the Ming Dynasty's control.
If any Japanese investor has such thoughts, they don't even need to send troops from the Ming Dynasty. They just need to create a financial crisis and at the same time strangle Japan's food supply, causing Japan's domestic rice prices to skyrocket. The Japanese devils who can't eat enough will have to
The government was overthrown.
"Your Excellency, Military Advisor," Tokugawa Noriaki's face was already a little gloomy, "If we agree to your request, what kind of development space will Japan get?"
"Space for development?" Zhuge Weidao smiled slightly, then glanced at Wang Wen, "Counsel Wang, what did Charlie Yilu explain?"
Hearing this, Tokugawa Qi Zhao's heart skipped a beat.
Despite all their calculations, he and Shimazu never expected that the Ming Navy would be so powerful, that it could severely damage the Revenge, sink the Indomitable, and capture Charles Elliot.
And once Charlie Elliot is captured, some things cannot be hidden!
"Military advisor, that Charlie Eryu confessed that their route from Yokosuka Military Port to Osaka was completely arranged by the Japanese side, and the Japanese side also arranged two gunboats to lead the way."
Zhuge Weidao smiled and said: "What a coincidence, our route to Mito via the Seto Inland Sea was also arranged by Japan, and the Japanese shogunate navy also arranged gunboats to lead the way!"
"And Charlie Eryu doesn't know yet that we will come from the Seto Inland Sea and enter the Kii Channel through the Naruto Strait."
"This shouldn't be the case!" Zhuge Weidao looked at the expressionless Tokugawa Saiaki, "At that time, the shogunate's naval staff insisted that Shimazu Sairyo should be on the Revenge, right? Did he know that the four Ming warships would be on that day?
Passing through the Naruto Strait in the early morning?"
Tokugawa Qi Zhao's face was livid, "Military advisor, do you suspect that Shimazu Qi Liang colluded with the East India Company's pirate ships to attack you and the Ming Navy? Is this because of Daikoku Kong?"
"Haha," Zhuge Weidao smiled, "Commander Wang, have you found those four boats?"
"No," Wang Wen said, "there is no trace. After the airship lost track of them, there was no trace of them again! In addition, the naval intelligence department, coast guard, home fleet, Nanyang fleet, as well as the navies of Siam and Annan
, none of them have been spotted. Never! These four ships seemed to appear out of thin air."
"Appeared out of thin air and disappeared out of thin air." Zhuge Weidao sneered, "It seems that these four camouflaged attack ships will never appear, right?"
Tokugawa Qiu Zhao said calmly: "Maybe we can look for it carefully."
"It's time to search carefully!" Zhuge Weidao said, "Mitozaemon Commander, thank you for hosting our Ming Dynasty. Now I have told you the conditions. There will be written documents to be handed over to the lord of the sect later!
If His Highness agrees to our conditions, then the shogunate will only need to hand over a petition."
"A certificate of surrender?" Tokugawa Qi Zhao frowned, "What certificate of surrender? What kind of certificate of surrender does Ming want?"
"What kind of certificate of surrender?" Zhuge Weidao said with a smile, "The monarch-class Revenge is undergoing repairs in Osaka Port, right? It is the best certificate of surrender!"
Tokugawa Qi Zhao was speechless when he heard Zhuge's conditions. The Ming Dynasty was so shameless that it allowed Japan to hand over the Revenge to them without going to war with the British Empire.
If Japan were to do such a thing, it would become a mortal enemy of the British Empire. From now on, it would have no choice but to follow the Ming Dynasty wholeheartedly, and it would be impossible to change its family.
Zhuge Weidao said: "After handing over the certificate of surrender, the two parties can start formal negotiations. After that, there will be a formal cooperation agreement and covenant. From now on, all warriors who follow the Ming Dynasty will enjoy the same benefits as the Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers."
In addition to military pay, you can also get corresponding land grants on the newly conquered lands of the Ming Dynasty!
In addition, the Ming Dynasty will also establish vassal states in the newly conquered lands. As long as Japanese samurai make meritorious services, they can become nobles of the vassal states just like the meritorious officials of the Ming Dynasty! In the future, they will become officials in the new country. You Japanese
There should be many warriors in the country who cannot be arranged, right? There is a way out if you follow the Ming Dynasty!"
"What if we don't agree to Ming's conditions?" Tokugawa Qi Zhao asked coldly.
Zhuge Weidao glanced at him and said with a smile: "Then we will fight until you agree!"
