Qi Jin and Luo Shangzhi were quite proud of themselves recently.
After joining the Qin Army, they hadn't been assigned to any positions and hadn't participated in any wars. They didn't participate in the Battle of Liaodong and the Battle of Bozhou, so they didn't get any military exploits. They were worried that they would be marginalized by the Daqin military.
But after thinking about it, they felt that it was not impossible. After all, Qi Jin had once led an army to resist the Qin Army. Although the Ming Army in Ishijian Town, where Luo Shangzhi was in, had never resisted the Qin Army and was even an old subordinate of Xiao Ruxun, it had only surrendered after the establishment of the Daqin.
Both of them belonged to the category of surrendered generals that were not favored by the people. Throughout the dynasties, the surrendered generals did not have a particularly good ending. The best outcome was that they were not put in an important position and died of depression. At the very least, they died of old age. For many surrendered generals, it was not unheard of for them to be killed with a borrowed knife.
Qi Jin was the nephew of the former Ming Dynasty General Qi Jiguang. He thought that his identity was relatively sensitive. Luo Shangzhi and Wu Weizhong were all former subordinates of Qi Jiguang. The three of them could be regarded as the only old people who had survived from the previous generation.
They thought that they were going to die of depression, but they were sent to the battlefield in the Battle of Nihon.
Wu Weizhong became a general, and Qi Jin and Luo Shangzhi became the vanguard generals. All three of them were appointed.
They felt quite good. After all, their military career started with Qi Jiguang. The legendary man led them on the road to the army, and the beginning of their military career was the war with the Japanese pirates. In the Jiajing period of the Daming dynasty, they fought bloody battles with the Japanese pirates.
After the chaos of the Japanese pirates on the southeast coast subsided, the generals fell, and Qi Jiguang died. They thought that their military career had come to an end. However, the battle of Jiuchen Korea pushed their military career to a new peak.
In this battle, they met Xiao Ruxun, the man who inherited Qi Jiguang's great cause. Based on the foundation of Qi Jiguang, he defeated the Nihon, the source of the Japanese pirates, and forced it to split into the east and the west. Each ruled separately, and they could no longer pose a threat to the Daming dynasty.
After a few years of silence, the Daming dynasty was replaced by the Daqin established by Xiao Ruxun. At the turning point of this era, they all chose to follow Xiao Ruxun's Daqin instead of protecting the Daming, which had no future.
Just when they thought that their military career had come to an end and they were ready to go home to spend their old age, a conscription order ignited the latter part of their military career.
They were going to fight the Japanese pirates again.
They felt that their whole lives were inseparable from the Japanese pirates. They joined the army to fight the Japanese pirates, and the second peak was also to fight the Japanese pirates. In the later part of their military career, they were still fighting the Japanese pirates.
They even directly destroyed the Nihon nation.
Their fate with the Wokou pirates was truly miraculous.
They were very happy. They made a lot of preparations for this war, and then they wiped out the main force of the Japanese pirates in one go. They directly beat them to a dead end, and they quickly fled.
The Tokugawa clan was too fast, and they couldn't catch up at all. However, the Toyotomi clan was firmly chased by them.
They chased for many days, and even the King of Japan was caught. The Toyotomi clan was still stubbornly resisting, and they were still running away. Qi Jin and Luo Shangzhi continued to chase, playing this game of cat and mouse to the end.
In the end, the head of the Toyotomi clan, Toyotomi Hidetsugu, was still caught. All his guards were killed, and he was the only one left alive.
This person was the son of the arrogant Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who led the war in Korea. For Xiao Ruxun, it was a pity that Toyotomi Hideyoshi didn't die in his hands, but it was also a good thing that Toyotomi Hidetsugu died in his hands.
Of course, it would be better if Tokugawa Ieyasu could also die. However, Tokugawa Ieyasu ran away. According to analysis, he probably ran far to the northeast, and no one knew where there was. The Qin Army had not explored those places, and some exploration teams had already set out.
However, with their credit of capturing Toyotomi Hidetsugu and destroying the central government of Nihon, it was enough to make Xiao Ruxun very happy and praise them.
It was said that after this war, the reorganization of the Qin Army would officially begin. They didn't know which army they would be assigned to continue their military career.
However, based on the contribution he had made this time, it was unlikely that he would be abandoned.
Qi Jin and Luo Shangzhi led the army back and met with Ma Wei and Li Rusong in Kyoto, the capital of Nihon. The servant army of the vassal state was also stationed in Kyoto. In addition to Chai Guozhu's army, the Daqin's army had also arrived in Kyoto.
Ma Wei announced the next strategy, which was to suppress the local feudal forces of Nihon and destroy them all. Then, together with the population screening team, they would provide labor for the construction of the Daqin, and promote the Daqin's annexation of the whole Nihon country.
Then, there was a grand celebration banquet.
A group of generals held a grand celebration banquet in Kyoto. All the captured female members of the Nihon nobles' families were arranged to perform and drink with the generals. Then, they could choose to take them back to enjoy themselves, or directly take them back to the Daqin to be their concubines.
At this time, many people knew that Ma Wei and Li Rusong had joined hands to send all the women of the Nihon royal family back to the Daqin for Xiao Ruxun to enjoy. As for the rest of the female members of the nobles' families, they could take them back to enjoy themselves. If they didn't like them, they could keep them here and directly sell them. It was that simple.
As for the meritorious soldiers inside and outside the city, they could also enjoy women. Naturally, they were not so high-class.
But in this day and age, who cared about this as a soldier? Their eyes were red from fighting in the war, and they finally had time to relax. At this time, any woman could get close to him. Who cared about whether she was beautiful or not?
It was pitch black, and they couldn't see it anyway.
The generals could care about their appearance and figure, but the soldiers didn't care so much. As long as they could have some fun, it was fine.
The generals indulged in joy and celebrated their victory. After midnight, they brought back a large number of female members of the nobles' families to enjoy themselves. Overnight, there was no quiet place in the whole of Kyoto. Wherever the soldiers on night patrol went, they could hear sounds that made people's imaginations run wild.
Then they snickered.
Some soldiers couldn't help but cover their nether regions to prevent others from looking. As a result, they were still seen by their companions and were immediately laughed at as "Juren."
If this could be counted as a Juren, that night, there were tens of thousands of Juren in the Daqin inside and outside the whole of Kyoto.
Only one person was an exception.
Wu Weizhong held a pot of wine and found a high place. He placed a plate of meat and two cups on it. Facing the bright moon in the sky, he raised a wine cup.
"General, your wish has finally come true. Our people will no longer be bullied by the Japanese pirates …"
