Sakata Arii took a deep breath and walked towards the fire.
"Sakata? Are you still alive?"
Just before walking to the temple, a surprised voice came out.
Immediately afterwards, a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, in tattered clothes and with a samurai sword on his waist, rushed out.
Apart from this young man, other people in the ruined temple also cast their eyes on this side.
When everyone in the temple looked at Sakata Arui lightly, they all ran towards Sakata Arui excitedly.
"I didn't expect you to be alive. We waited for you here all day and didn't see you back. We thought you were beaten to death by those soldiers."
There were seven or eight people who rushed out, and they were basically teenagers from seventeen to twenty-three.
These teenagers have one thing in common, that is, the clothes on their bodies are very tattered.
"Where did the clothes you wear come from? Why is it exactly the same as the uniform of the army that appeared in the city today? And it also has armor?" said in surprise.
"Okay, let's go in and talk about it first. You probably won't believe this matter when you tell it."
Sakata Arii said and walked towards the temple.
All the teenagers in the ruined temple followed behind Sakata Arui, looking at him excitedly.
Sakata Arii knelt beside the fire in the temple, with the samurai sword at his waist across his lap.
"Let's talk about how you survived first. The soldiers who suddenly appeared today were terrifying. One-eyed and the others were almost killed. I remember that you were also near the place where they made trouble. How did you survive? An identical military uniform and a new samurai sword?"
The boy who saw Sakata Arui first looked at Sakata Arii curiously.
This young man is called Ying Musong, and he is also a wild samurai.
In Shuri Castle, there were not a few wild warriors like them before.It's just that many of them have been beaten to death by Zhao Wen now.
Sakuragi Matsu and Sakata Arii and these people in the ruined temple are all wild samurai.
Because of their young age, they were often bullied by those young and strong wild warriors in the city, so they united spontaneously.
And this ruined temple is their gathering place.
The one-eyed samurai Sakuragi Song mentioned was the wild samurai who had been oppressing them all the time. This one-eyed was also a well-known wild samurai in Shuri Castle, who stayed in the port all the year round.
The chaos in Shuri Castle today was stirred up by the wild samurai headed by One Eye.
Sakata Arii let out a long breath, and said slowly: "We have to start from the beginning.
Wasn't my sister sick before, so I thought about going to the streets to try my luck and see if I could get some medicinal materials.
But who knows, as soon as they walked into the street, they suddenly saw Cyclops running towards the street from the direction of the port.
They shouted as they ran, saying that the enemy was coming and wanted to massacre the city.
They not only yelled, but also attacked the shops on the street, snatching the things in the shops.
You also know that our group of people and Cyclops have been at odds with each other, and in addition to the chaos that the street was hit by them at that time, I plan to go back first.
But within two steps, the army rushed over.You will know what happened afterwards. "
"That army is really terrifying, and the weapons in their hands are too terrifying. They beat people to death at a distance of dozens of steps.
I watched helplessly as One Eye was beaten into a sieve, and blood kept oozing out of my body.
After I came back, I originally wanted to go to your house to look for you, but the streets were full of patrolling soldiers, so I didn't go, and waited for you here until now. "
When Ying Musong remembered the scene he saw on the street before, his body kept breaking out in cold sweat.
If it wasn't for his fast running and his small body, he would have been beaten to death long ago.
"But you haven't mentioned the clothes on your body yet? And your sword." Sakuragi Matsu pointed to Sakata Arii's samurai sword and asked curiously.
Sakata Arui stroked the samurai sword, with a smile on his face, and told what happened after meeting Zhao Wen.
The people sitting around the fire looked at Sakata Arii blankly, unable to speak for a long time.
"You didn't lie to me, did you? Someone took you in? Is this true or not? You were taken in? Are you lying to me? We wild warriors are like rats, and everyone hates them. How could anyone take them in?" ?”
Sakuragi Matsu looked at Sakata Arii and said in disbelief.
"Your Excellency is not comparable to ordinary people. Your Excellency's troops are powerful, and his soldiers are the ones who suppressed One-Eyed's riot today." Sakata Arii said again.
As soon as Sakata Arui finished speaking, the entire ruined temple was filled with the sound of gasping for air.
"The adults who took you in were actually the ones who suppressed One-Eyed and the others today? Are you lying to me? Such a powerful adult would take you in?" Sakuragi Song pointed at Sakata Arui with a look of horror.
Sakata Arei said: "Why is this impossible? My lord wants to form an army of samurai, and specially asked me to gather those wild samurai who don't have a lord."
"Really? Did this lord really say that? Doesn't that mean that I will also be a samurai with a lord in the future? From now on, I will no longer be a wild samurai without roots?"
Not only Yingmu Song, but also the wild warriors in the ruined temple became excited.
……
The next day, just after dawn, Sakata Arui took Sakuragi Song and the others towards the port.
After arriving at the port, under the guidance of the patrolling soldiers on the port, he led Ying Musong and the others to Zhao Wen's big tent.
Zhao Wen looked at the seven or eight people in the big tent, and said to Sakata Youjing who was standing in front of him, "Are these the wild warriors you summoned?"
"My lord, these people and I are best friends. My lord wants to form a warrior army, so I specially recruited them to come to see my lord, and ask my lord to give them a chance."
Sakata Arii said respectfully to Zhao Wendao.
"Can you guarantee their loyalty?" Zhao Wen asked.
Before Sakata Arii could speak, Sakuragi Matsu drew out the samurai sword from his waist.
He said to Zhao Wen in broken Chinese: "If you don't believe me, I can dig out my heart."
Looking at this posture, Zhao Wen couldn't help but slander: "Why is it always this posture, I will plan my heart every now and then."
"Okay, I don't need you to dig out your hearts. I will accept you people, but you must remember that if you dare to betray me in the future, your end will be miserable." Zhao Wen Looking at these people, he said seriously.
When these wild warriors heard that Zhao Wen agreed to accept them, they were so excited that they knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zhao Wen non-stop.
"Daniu, lead them to change all the clothes on their bodies, and let them have a full meal. All of them are as thin as monkeys."
Zhao Wen pointed to the seven or eight wild warriors and said to Zhao Daniu.
"Thank you sir!"
Sakata Arii saluted Zhao Wen and was about to leave.
"You wait a moment." Zhao Wen called to Sakata Arui.
Sakata Arui was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly stopped, standing quietly beside Zhao Wen.
Zhao Wendao: "The people you summoned are not enough, they are far from enough."
"My lord, the number of wild samurai in Shuri Castle was not many, and you slaughtered some of them. If you want to gather a large number of wild samurai, you can only go to Japan." Sakata Arii replied respectfully.
"Waguo?" Zhao Wen squeezed his chin, his eyes were shining brightly. "If you are sent to Wa country, how many wild warriors can you get me?"
"As long as my lord sends me to the Wa country, I dare not say that I can get 1 to [-] for the lord, but there is still one or two thousand. The most indispensable thing in the Wa country is the wild samurai." Sakata Arui replied.
"Since that's the case, if you prepare for a few days, then I will send you and the people you summoned to Wa country.
When I go, I will equip you with weapons. After you arrive in Wa Kingdom, you must gather a large number of wild warriors for me. "

"By the way, after I send you to the Wa country, I will also send a team to go with you at the same time." Zhao Wen looked at Sakata Arii and said slowly.
Now the Tokugawa family is in power in Japan. Since the death of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the rule of the Tokugawa family has become more and more stable.
Today's Wa country is generally relatively calm, and there are no major disturbances.
But this peaceful Wa country is not what Zhao Wen wants to see. Only a chaotic Wa country is the best Wa country.
Only by letting the Wa country become chaotic first, can it take over better in the future.
"When you are in Wa Kingdom, I hope you don't insult my reputation, no matter what you do, don't be afraid.
If anyone dares to deal with you, you will shoot me.Remember, behind you is me, no one can touch me. "
Zhao Wen's tone gradually cooled down, but Sakata Arii became more and more excited.
The last thing this group of blood-licking people fear is chaos.
In a way, chaos is what they love best.
"The subordinates must follow the teachings of the adults carefully, and will not insult the name of the adults."
Sakata Arii saluted Zhao Wen and said loudly.
Zhao Wen waved his hand and said calmly, "Okay, you go down first."
……
A few days later, several ordinary ships headed for Wa.
These ships belonged to the royal family of the Ryukyu Kingdom. Although the Ryukyu King was ruled by Samofan before, the Ryukyu King also had some ships in his hands.
Among these ordinary ships were Sakata Arui, Sakata Miyuki, and Sakuragi Matsu.
In addition to these people, there are more than 50 soldiers with live ammunition, led by a soldier named Li Chengming.
This Li Chengming was one of Zhao Wen's personal guards. He had followed Zhao Wen for a long time and was loyal to Zhao Wen, so Zhao Wen sent him out to lead the fifty soldiers.
Each of these fifty soldiers is equipped with a 56 punch and 40 guns. As for the ammunition, they are also fully equipped.
The target of these ships is Nagasaki. In this era, the Tokugawa shogunate implemented a closed-door policy, and only Nagasaki was an open port.
After sending these people away, Zhao Wen sent people to Phi Island to transport some craftsmen and cement, and began to build a bastion on the port of Naha Port.
The location of the bastion is where Zhao Wen stationed his soldiers and horses.
When Zhao Wen directed the craftsmen to build a bastion in Naha Port, the Shimazu family of Satsuma Fan also got the news that the Ryukyu Kingdom was robbed.
In the southwestern part of Japan's Kyushu Island, in the mansion of the Shimadzu family, the daimyo of Satsuma, Mitsuhisa Shimadzu, the son of the owner of the Satsuma family, Shimadzu Kahisa, sat in the hall, looking gloomy at the generals and retainers in the hall.
Iehisa Shimadzu was the son of Yoshihiro Shimadzu, a man of the Warring States Period in Japan, and the first ruler of Satsuma.
Now that he is getting older and his health is getting worse, he handed over the affairs of Satsuma to his son Mitsuhisa Shimadzu.
Today, Mitsuhisa Shimadzu handles all matters in Satsuma Fan.
"Can any of you tell me what's going on?" Mitsuhisa Shimadzu knelt on the main seat in the hall, and slapped the table in front of him fiercely, his face full of ferocity.
The retainers and generals kneeling in the hall lowered their heads, not daring to look at Mitsuhisa Shimadzu.
Nakamura Hisamitsu and the others will send people back to Samofan once a month.
In addition, Mitsuhisa Shimadzu asked Ryukyu to collect [-] shi of grain before sending it this month.
But Mitsuhisa Shimadzu waited and waited for almost half a month, and there was no news at all.
Not only was there no movement in Ryukyu's food, but there was also no news from Nakamura Hisamitsu and the others.
Even if they didn't get the food, they should at least give a message.
Since Ryukyu was captured, the garrison on Ryukyu would send money to Samofan once a month, and even if they didn't get any money, they would report the latest developments of the Ryukyu Kingdom.
But since this month, Mitsuhisa Shimadzu has not seen anyone who came back from Ryukyu.
Such an uncharacteristic thing had to make Mitsuhisa Shimadzu suspicious.
After waiting for several days, Mitsuhisa Shimadzu had no choice but to send troops to Ryukyu to inquire about the news, but who would have thought that Ryukyu had been snatched by a general from Ming Dynasty.
All the troops left on the island were killed by the Ming general.
The Ryukyu Kingdom was a cash cow of Satsuma, so it was gone, and Mitsuhisa Shimadzu was naturally very angry.
"Can any of you tell me what's going on? Where did this Ming general come from?"
Mitsuhisa Shimadzu's face was full of gloom. He looked at the people in the hall and asked in a cold voice.
Everyone in the hall looked at me and I looked at you, but no one dared to speak.
Now Mitsuhisa Shimadzu is in a rage, and few people dare to touch his bad luck.
Looking at the furious Shimadzu Mitsuhisa, Shimadzu Hisaki, the elder of the Shimadzu family, said, "Da Ming, this is an extremely powerful empire.
