On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Chapter 1247 The Protectorate of Japan

Lin Zhen looked at Date Mitsuru, who was kneeling on the ground, frantically begging for his mercy, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

He knew that he was playing a grand game with the entire country of Japan as his chessboard.

The most crucial piece has been placed.

Next is the time to witness the miracle.

"Pass on my order!"

His voice became cold and filled with an undeniable and absolute domineering aura!

Effective immediately!

"Japan has officially changed its name to the 'Protectorate of Japan' of our Great Qian Empire!"

"The Regent and Regent Akechi Mitsuhide, and the head of the Five Commissioners, Niwa Nagahide, will jointly manage all domestic affairs of the Protectorate!"

"General Date Masamune, commander of 100,000 auxiliary troops, will be responsible for suppressing all rebels within the Protectorate who dare to defy the might of our Great Qian Dynasty!"

"And your first, and only, task is—"

His gaze slowly swept over the three Japanese vassals who had already been terrified by his unpredictable methods.

A cruel, icy smile curled at the corner of his lips, filled with endless murderous intent.

"--war!"

"I want you to immediately adopt the name of the 'Protectorate of Japan'!"

"To the Tokugawa Hidetada's 'Kanto Allied Forces' that are still putting up a stubborn resistance!"

"To the Hojo clan's 'Sagami Navy,' which has always been eyeing us covetously!"

"To the 'Satsuma Hayato' of the Shimazu family, who has established himself as king on Kyushu Island!"

"To all those local lords who dare to declare themselves kings on this land and disobey the orders of the Great Qian Dynasty!"

"Declare all-out war!"

"I want you to wage an endless war of unification in the bloodiest and most brutal way!"

"I will plunge this tiny Japan into a quagmire of endless civil war!"

"I want to turn this place into a gigantic, flesh-and-blood millstone!"

"Grind every rebellious and every potential source of unrest into dust!"

"And my Great Qian fleet will forever remain anchored outside your port."

"I coldly watch you pathetic insects tearing each other apart and killing each other for that pitiful amount of power and land!"

"Until you bleed your last drop."

"Until you give us everything you have!"

"Did you all understand?!"

Lin Zhen's speech was filled with bloodshed, madness, and a shocking declaration of the naked Dark Forest Law.

Like a cold, deathly storm from the deepest hell!

It instantly swept through the entire castle tower of Azuchi Castle!

Let Akechi Mitsuhide, Niwa Nagahide, and Date Masamune, who had just been "appointed" as shogun, be appointed.

These three Japanese "new elites" believed they had already climbed to the pinnacle of power.

In that instant, everyone felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, their whole body turning cold and their scalp tingling!

They finally understood completely.

This Eastern prince is more terrifying than the devil.

He had no intention of leaving any way out for Japan!

What he wanted was not a unified, prosperous vassal state that paid tribute to him.

What he wanted was a colony that was far from divided, perpetually turbulent, and perpetually bleeding, a half-dead colony!

A massive flesh and blood factory that could provide him with a continuous stream of wealth, soldiers, and training grounds!

That's...too ruthless!

That's way too...too toxic!

This is no longer a simple matter of conquest and rule.

This is the most thorough castration and enslavement of a nation, from its very roots and from its very soul!

They're finished.

The entire country of Japan is finished.

Faced with the power of absolute dimensional reduction.

In the face of absolutely flawless, godlike wisdom.

These so-called "heroes" and "tyrants" are nothing but a bunch of pathetic and laughable clowns.

"Your humble servant...yes...yes..."

After a long, deathly silence and despair.

Mitsuhide Akechi was the first to recover from that immense fear.

He spoke in a hoarse voice filled with endless bitterness and resignation.

This represents the entire nation of Japan's devotion to this supreme demon god from the East.

They offered their last, and most humble, act of loyalty.

......

Azuchi Castle, castle tower.

This fortified castle, symbolizing Oda Nobunaga's supreme power and considered the strongest in the land, is still brightly lit and bustling with activity.

Oda Nobunaga's most trusted retainers, including Akechi Mitsuhide, Niwa Nagahide, and Takigawa Kazumasu, were here, drinking and making merry while waiting for the return of their "ruler of the realm."

Unbeknownst to them, a vast spiderweb woven from death and betrayal had already enveloped them and the seemingly impregnable city.

"Report——"

Just then, a samurai responsible for guarding the city gate scrambled in.

"Your Excellencies! Something terrible has happened!"

"Outside the city...a large number of unidentified enemy troops have been discovered outside the city! They are rapidly approaching my Azuchi Castle!"

"what?!"

Upon hearing this, the entire castle tower fell into a deathly silence!

All the military officers who were drinking and making merry were frozen in place, as if they had been struck by a spell.

enemy?

Where did the enemy troops come from?

Wasn't Tokugawa Ieyasu already wiped out by that mysterious Chinese fleet?

Could they be remnants of the Tokugawa clan?

impossible!

How could those bunch of stray dogs possibly have the guts to attack their impregnable Azuchi Castle?!

"Why panic?!"

Just as everyone was filled with doubt and uncertainty, a calm and authoritative voice rang out.

The one speaking was Takigawa Kazumasu, Oda Nobunaga's most valiant general and his most trusted personal guard captain.

He slowly stood up from his seat, his face, which was always full of confidence and pride, showing no sign of panic.

"They're just a bunch of bandits, not worth mentioning."

"Pass on my order! The entire city is on high alert! Archers and arquebusiers, all of you, get to the city walls!"

"I'd like to see which blind fool dares to run wild on my Oda clan's territory!"

However, just when he was still hoping to rely on the strong defenses of Azuchi Castle to fight a desperate battle.

A cold, deathly voice, as if from the deepest hell, suddenly and slowly rose behind him.

"No need, Lord Takikawa."

"Because your enemy has arrived."

Kazumasu Takigawa's body suddenly stiffened!

He suddenly turned around!

He happened to see his loyal and shrewd colleague, Mitsuhide Akechi, looking at him with a smile.

In Akechi Mitsuhide's hand, there was also a cold samurai sword stained with blood.

Drops of bright red blood were slowly dripping from the tip of the knife.

“Mingzhi…you…”
