Chapter 1424 Nobunaga’s Ambition
Chapter 1422: Nobunaga’s Ambition
In recent years, Qin Hao's attention has been focused on the Central Plains. At most, he has only distracted attention on the grasslands. He knows very little about the development of foreign forces.
After all, China is already in chaos today. Even his own mess has not been solved. Qin Hao naturally has no energy or ability to pay attention to the situation in foreign countries.
Although Qin Hao knows little about the situation in Japan, he also knows that the level of chaos in Japan is, to a certain extent, much better than that in China.
After all, the princes who were balanced to Japan were not only Oda Nobunaga, but also Tokugawa Ieyasu, Akechi Mitsuhide, Takeda Shingen, Uesugi Kenshin, etc., many famous princes in the history of Japan.
But Qin Hao never expected that before he had unified half of China, Oda Nobunaga would unify the entire Japan so quickly and send a mission to Luoyang for pilgrimage in the name of Japan.
The Han Dynasty was in civil strife, the feudal lords were separatist, and the country was weakened. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take over China, and no foreign race would miss the opportunity.
So in Qin Hao's view, the Japanese mission was called pilgrimage this time, and it was actually just to find out the truth and prepare for future invasion.
Since there was no information about Japan, Qin Hao could only rely on his own inherent thinking to speculate. Most of his guesses were correct, but he was wrong about one thing.
The chaos in Japan is not much worse than that of the Han Dynasty. Even Oda Nobunaga was unable to defeat all the heroes and unify Japan in such a short period of time.
Today's Japan, like the Han Dynasty, is still in the Warring States Period when the princes are divided. No one can unify the world in a short time.
As the overlord of the Japanese princes, Oda Nobunaga had great ambitions and was never limited to Japan. However, if he wanted to realize his ambition, unifying Japan was just the beginning.
In order to end the troubled times as soon as possible and unify Japan, Oda Nobunaga decided to divert trouble eastward and lure the princes in Japan to invade other countries.
All Japanese people are full of yearning for the main continent of China. Oda Nobunaga grasped this key point. While promoting the strength and prosperity of the Han Dynasty internally, he also threatened that the Han Dynasty was caught in internal strife and was at its weakest.
All Japanese people should unite and seize this God-given opportunity to enter China.
The various princes of Japan are not fools, and naturally they cannot believe Oda Nobunaga's lies, but all the forces have fallen into a bottleneck period of development.
In this situation where neither internal excavation nor external expansion is possible, any spark may ignite the pile of dry firewood in Japan, and the best way to avoid the outbreak of national war is naturally to divert conflicts.
At this time, Oda Nobunaga gave a brand new goal, China, to shift the attention of all citizens from domestic to foreign countries.
It has to be said that Oda Nobunaga's calculation was really powerful. He included all the princes in Japan at once. However, no princes along the way would oppose him, because this was not only conducive to the stability of Japan, but also allowed him to start a war. Expanding territory and avoiding internal friction is simply killing two birds with one stone.
Of course, as the initiator, Oda Nobunaga is naturally the party that benefits the most.
Once the Japanese princes land on the mainland of China, if they succeed in gaining a foothold, they will surely suffer huge losses. If they fail to gain a foothold and fail, the losses will naturally be even greater. But regardless of whether they succeed or fail, they will be It was an excellent opportunity for Oda Nobunaga to unify Japan.
In short, regardless of whether Japan can successfully invade China, there will be no harm to the organizer Oda Nobunaga, but it will still be a big opportunity. However, Oda Nobunaga still hopes that the domestic princes can gain a firm foothold in China, because the longer these outposts support, the less resistance he will have when he conquers China.
I have to say that Oda Nobunaga's ambitions are really big. He has not even unified Japan yet, but he is already laying out China. He is quite willing to swallow the elephant, and he is not afraid of pushing himself to death.
Although Oda Nobunaga advertised to the outside world that the Han Dynasty was weak, magnifying the bad nature of the Han people, and even devaluing the whole of China as worthless, of course he himself did not really think so.
The more Oda Nobunaga learns about it, the clearer it becomes that the gap between Japan and the Han Dynasty is not just one or two aspects, but all aspects of the entire civilization, whether it is ordnance manufacturing, medical care, agriculture, shipbuilding, etc. , Japan is like a baby in front of the big man.
If Japan cannot catch up with the Han Dynasty in these aspects, Japan's entry into China will be nothing more than a joke, and Temujin and Nurhaci set a good example for Oda Nobunaga.
After the establishment of the Yuan, Meng and Manchu dynasties, the foolish Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty packed up all the classics of the Han Dynasty and took the initiative to give them to the two countries.
The two countries created their own new civilization based on the Han civilization, and their national strength developed rapidly as a result, which greatly inspired Oda Nobunaga.
This time Oda Nobunaga sent a mission to Luoyang. The purpose of pilgrimage and to find out the reality of the Han Dynasty was secondary. The main purpose was to obtain the Han Dynasty's various technologies, especially the advanced shipbuilding and navigation technology of the Han Dynasty.
Although the shipbuilding technology of Japan is also unique, compared with the shipbuilding technology of Han Dynasty, it is far behind in all aspects.
Only relying on the Japanese's own shipbuilding and navigation skills, the Japanese army would not be able to land on the mainland of China. Therefore, if you want to conquer China as the first step, you must first obtain the advanced shipbuilding skills of the Han Dynasty.
Oda Nobunaga attached great importance to this mission to the Han Dynasty. Not only did he send his important minister Toyotomi Hideyoshi as the envoy, but he also sent his sister, Oda Shi, who was known as the most beautiful woman in the Warring States Period in Japan, as the deputy envoy. In addition, among the envoys There are also: Hattori Hanzo, the God of Ninja, Zeushen, the master of Wushen Palace, Honinbo Shusaku, the "Queen Saint" in the Japanese chess world, and many other outstanding figures.
Oda Nobunaga regarded this mission to the Han Dynasty as the first step for Japan to break away from the confinement of the island country, so he naturally made extremely sufficient preparations.
Qin Hao was stunned for a long time after seeing the list of the mission. There were many people he knew but did not appear on the list. They were obviously hidden figures of the Baizhao Card.
For example: Oda City was born from Hyakumeka, Kuroki’s character prototype Honinbo Shusaku, and Hattori Hanzo were all born from special Hyakumeka...
It seems that the summoned card has provided talents to Japan!
In the inn, Oda City, who was known as the most beautiful woman in the Warring States Period, was constantly flipping through the "Zixu Poetry Collection" in her hand.
"Nung, moon and new moon…
Suddenly looking back, the man was in the dim light..."
Oda Shi read silently while reading, his eyes full of excitement: "His Royal Highness Qin Gong is really a genius. Not only is he a master of military art, but he also has extremely high attainments in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. How could there be such a person in the world?" Such a strange man…”
