Chapter 1876 I want to make progress

"In addition, the Governor of Xingwen ordered him to settle the affairs of Sado Island and come to Silla to take charge."

"Here!"

Wang Xuance bowed and accepted the order.

He knew that Fang Jun must return to Chang'an with Queen Shande.

Strictly speaking, what Fang Jun did in Silla violated national law. As a potential ally of the Tang Dynasty, Fang Jun wantonly intervened and caused chaos. If investigated, the guilt will not be light. Silla was different from the Japanese state. Although the Japanese state repeatedly submitted to the Central Plains Dynasty to show its submission, the Central Plains Dynasty never took it seriously. No one cared whether it was dead or alive.

Of course, Wang Xuance understood Fang Jun's motive for intervening in Silla's internal affairs so blatantly, and he heartily agreed with it.

How many years have passed since the Zhou Dynasty, but no emperor has ever canonized his heirs in a newly attached land or a newly acquired country?

The reason why the Zhou Dynasty defined the territory of the Xia Dynasty was precisely because it ennobled eight hundred princes and placed them all over the world to protect the capital!

However, there were many objections in the court to the canonization of the prince as king of Silla.

No one can handle this kind of matter unless Fang Jun goes back and personally participates in it. When it comes to influence on His Majesty Li Er, looking at the court, no one can be better than Fang Jun.

Jane is in the emperor's heart...

Fang Jun stood at the gate of the royal city, turned around, and warned: "Whether it is Silla, Goguryeo or Baekje, their movements must be closely monitored and must not be careless. At present, Goguryeo has already mobilized heavy troops to In Liaodong, the unpredictable Silla attached itself to the Tang Dynasty, which will inevitably make it panic and alert, and it will send troops at any time to defeat us before we have a stable footing. "

Wang Xuance naturally knew the importance and replied: "I will save my time by taking a humble position. I will definitely work carefully and pay close attention to the developments in Goguryeo and Baekje. I will also closely monitor the disturbances in Silla."

Fang Jun looked at the battlefield in the distance that had gradually become silent, and said: "Let's go back to the dock area and prepare. I will return to Datang tomorrow morning."

"Here!"

Wang Xuance followed suit and followed Fang Jun back to the east dock of the city.

The Japanese country has now become a mess.

The Suga family rebelled and usurped the throne, which aroused strong dissatisfaction among the Japanese people, especially in various feudal states. People were angry and scolded! However, because Musashi, Izumo and other vassal states had previously failed to unite to attack Asukakyo, they were defeated by the Tang army. Therefore, everyone was frightened and did not dare to form an alliance to attack the Soga clan again.

But just because you don't dare to attack doesn't mean you are willing to do so!

Since ancient times, the inheritance of the emperor has been endless, and no one has ever questioned the emperor's identity as a descendant of Amaterasu. Therefore, for thousands of years, the power that everyone has fought for is just an illusion. The emperor commands the heroes, and one person is inferior to ten thousand people. !

However, now, the Soga family has brazenly usurped the throne, overthrowing the belief of the Yamato nation for thousands of years in one fell swoop, causing the inheritance of the emperor to collapse. He can be called a traitor and a thief, and has lost his morality...

How can various feudal countries be subdued?

If I had known this, I could do it too!

I don’t know how many feudal lords sighed with regret. In the past, they were afraid of the faith of the Yamato nation. No matter how ambitious they were, they could only respect the emperor as the lord of the Japanese country. They did not dare to think of replacing him, for fear of destroying the emperor. The inheritance caused the anger of Amaterasu, causing disaster to fall from the sky.

But look now, the Soga clan doesn’t have much power either...

This makes everyone regret it. The history of the Japanese country is chaotic. If we go forward a few hundred years, there are countless families and tribes that once gained power and looked down upon the Japanese island. If everyone had been more courageous, how would it be the Soga family's turn to seize the throne of the emperor today?

It's too late to regret!

It's just that the Su Wo family climbed onto the big and thick leg of the Tang Dynasty, which made all the feudal states very afraid.

According to legend, in the battle of Asukakyo, each Tang army was like a tiger descending from the mountain with wings on its ribs. It could summon the divine thunder with open hands, which blasted the allied forces of Musashi, Iga and other countries out of their minds. They had no ability to resist and were completely defeated... …This makes the feudal states dare not make mistakes.

When the Tang Dynasty signed an agreement with the Su Wo clan, all the feudal states were ready to take action... It turned out that the Tang Dynasty was helping the Su Wo clan just to seek benefits!

That’s no problem. Whatever Suga can give, we can also give!

You can even give more!

As long as you get the throne of the emperor, no matter how much you give, you will still make a lot of money!

Didn’t you see that the Ezo people who had been driven into the ice and snow of Ezo Island, now with the support of the Tang Dynasty, not only restored their ancestral land, but also separated themselves from each other and became on an equal footing with the Japanese country?

As a result, many feudal lords secretly sent people to Sado Island and Namba Tsu to contact the senior officials of the Tang Army, hoping to have the opportunity to receive "guidance" from the Tang Army in terms of politics, economy, military, etc., and to deepen strategic cooperation. .

If you can support us in raising troops to fight against traitors and clear the world, then we can completely sign a new agreement like Suga's, and it doesn't matter if it goes too far...

At that time, Fang Jun had already set off north to Silla, and naturally it was Su Dingfang who made the decision.

Su Dingfang's military quality is absolutely top-notch, but his political quality is inevitably somewhat unqualified. He feels that even though he has made outstanding achievements in the past, he has been repeatedly suppressed and failed to receive fair treatment, just because he is dull and does not know how to flatter his superiors. He never wanted to live through the hard life of being ignored for a day, so he devoted himself to studying ways to please.

Fang Jun does not need to ask for help. The son of the Prime Minister and the emperor's son-in-law is his benefactor. He only values ​​his military talent. As long as he can conscientiously handle the things Fang Jun tells him, over there is The best kind of flattery.

In addition, as the commander of the Royal Navy, he naturally becomes the emperor's retainer. With this relationship, if he cannot take the opportunity to lick the emperor and make him feel comfortable, wouldn't it be a failure? Extremely?

It's a pity that he is not a flatterer after all, and his talent in this area is extremely close to zero. After thinking hard for a long time, he came up with a method that most people would be happy to accept - give money!

Su Dingfang doesn't have much wealth of his own. How rich can you expect a person who can't even flatter someone to be?

But fortunately there is a gold mine on Sado Island!

Although this gold mine actually belongs to His Majesty the Emperor, gold needs to be mined from the mine, and then the ore has to be smelted. If you are lazy, you can produce ten kilograms a day, and if you are diligent, you can produce a hundred kilograms a day. The difference here is just Big!

As long as he works conscientiously and expands the speed of gold mining on Sado Island, then ship after ship of gold will arrive in Chang'an and be unloaded into His Majesty's inner treasury. How can the Emperor not be overjoyed?

Therefore, Su Dingfang didn't care what Fang Jun was doing on the other side of Nambazu. He identified Sado Island, had food and accommodation on the island, and carried a whip to drive away the hard work of those who had fallen here from Japan, Ruki Country and other places, working day and night. Mining in the mountains!

As for whether the miners would die from excessive fatigue... Su Dingfang didn't care at all.

We're not from the Tang Dynasty, so who cares?

Since he is a foreign slave, he doesn't care whether he is dead or alive. He will work for me while he is alive. If he is dead, he will find a way to buy another batch. Anyway, the Ezo people have conflicts with the Japanese from time to time, but there are prisoners. , they were all sold to Sado Island, there were so many slaves...

This is not that Su Dingfang is looking down on human life, but that since ancient times, the Han people who were influenced by Confucian culture have not regarded barbarians as human beings.

What is a barbarian?

The people in the east are called Yi, and they are given tattoos; the south are called barbarians, and they have carved inscriptions on their toes; the west are called Rong, and they are given clothes and skins; the north is called Di, and they live in caves with clothes and feathers...

Barbarians such as the Japanese and Liugui are not the descendants of the Xia, they are just two-legged beasts. What does it matter whether they are dead or alive?

Governor Su, who is dedicated to progress, has become an "overseer"...

After receiving Fang Jun's order, Su Dingfang was a little unhappy. What's so fussy about that damn place in Silla? The land is barren and the population is sparse, and it is sandwiched between Goguryeo and Baekje. There is no room for maneuver at all. All we have to do is wait for the millions of tigers of the Tang Dynasty to destroy Goguryeo and Baekje in person after His Majesty personally conquers them.

Now we have to mobilize the navy to stabilize the situation and be on guard against Goguryeo and Baekje taking advantage of the chaos to attack. It is really a waste of energy. The most important thing is to delay our own progress...

However, he had always regarded Fang Jun as his benefactor and respected him very much. Naturally, he did not dare to disobey his orders. He immediately summoned his soldiers and left a squadron of more than ten battleships and more than 500 soldiers. Led by the captain, he stood firm Sado Island, supervising mining.

He led a main fleet of more than 10,000 people and set sail for Silla.

However, before the fleet left the port, they found that the Japanese fleet consisting of countless sampans and pointed boats was approaching in a mighty manner. The Tang army was shocked, and the cannon jackets of the bow guns were torn off, and Wait for the situation to go wrong and fire immediately!

Suga Minta stood on the bow of the leading warship and yelled at Su Dingfang, but the distance was too far and he couldn't hear clearly what he was shouting.

Su Dingfang breathed a sigh of relief, ordered the fleet to relax its guard, and then sent people to drive the warship forward and pick up Suga Minta to the flagship.

Suga Mingtai jumped on the flagship, saw Su Dingfang, stepped forward to hold his hand, and said enthusiastically: "I have a delivery for you!"

Su Dingfang was confused, delivery? What kind of goods?

Minta Soga opened his mouth and said with a smile: "The country of Iga helped the tyranny, and was attacked by my subordinates in the past two days. A total of more than a thousand young men and women were captured, and they were all brought to you..."
< br>

Su Dingfang was stunned at first, and then looked helpless.

Because he remembered the human trafficking agreement that Fang Jun had made with Suga Mingtai. Now, he, Su Dingfang, a dignified Tang general and naval commander, has actually become a human trafficker... (End of this chapter)
