"So, the Tang people are really good people! It was really unnecessary for us to raise troops in the first place!" Da Shude sneered.
"You can't say that. If we didn't have troops to resist, the Tang people would have thought that we were weak and could be bullied. They would have treated us like dogs and horses and behaved wantonly. But after three years of bitter fighting, the Tang people also knew that we Baekje people should not be insulted lightly. , must be governed by good officials. In this way, our hardships were not in vain!"
After hearing Hei Te Changzhi's words, everyone's faces looked much better. Look at Hei Te Changzhi. These people were willing to follow Fuyu Fengzhang and abandon their homes and careers to come to Japan. They were all die-hards among the die-hards in the Restoration Army. Even now that Brother Zhongda and Fuyu Fengzhang are dead, and the Japanese have become Wang Wenzuo's hawks, and they are at the end of their rope, this group of people can still lose their heads and refuse to be soft-spoken. At this time, Hei Te Changzhi said to them that He was praised so highly for raising an army, so naturally he felt a lot better.
"Hei Te Changzhi, you haven't been with the Tang Dynasty for a long time, and you don't know any other skills. You are getting better and better with your words!" Da Shude smiled and said: "But you dare to say this in front of us. You must not dare to say even half a word in front of Tang Ren, otherwise you wouldn’t let Tang Ren cut off your head and play it as a ball? Brothers, don’t you think so?”
"Hahahahaha, not bad!"
"That's right, he's just saying this in front of us. He wouldn't dare to say it in front of the Tang Dynasty even if he had a hundred courages!"
"That's natural. People like him are two-faced, they are humans to their faces and ghosts behind their backs. Otherwise, how could they be alive today!"
Facing the ridicule from everyone, Hei Te Changzhi seemed to have heard nothing and kept his expression as usual. After everyone's laughter gradually subsided, he smiled and said: "You are wrong. In fact, those words just now came from Wang. I just repeated what the governor said!"
"What, the King's Governor? Which King's Governor?" Dashude couldn't help being surprised when he heard this.
"Of course it is the Governor of Xiongjin Governor's Palace, Wang Wenzuo, who is also the consolation ambassador of the Japanese Kingdom in the Tang Dynasty, and the Zuofu Palace personally granted by the Japanese Queen!"
"Is it him? Impossible, how could he say such a thing? Black Teeth Changzhi, you are lying again!"
If we now select celebrities from the Tang Dynasty among Baekje and Japanese people, Wang Wenzuo will definitely be among the top three. For these Baekje exiles, they are even more thunderous, full of hatred and fear. If they can say all kinds of obscene words, ridicule and abuse to Heijia Changzhi, they can't even curse Wang Wenzuo. There is no other reason. The repeated defeats have driven fear into their bones. Even if they want to curse, they will subconsciously swallow it back when they reach their lips!
"This is all true. If you don't believe it, you can ask Governor Wang for confirmation in person if you have the opportunity in the future!" Black Teeth Changzhi said with a smile: "Captain Wang also said that in his life, he valued the most persevering warriors. The more he persisted in resisting until In the end, he respected each other even more. He also said that most of his achievements and wealth came from us. When he first went to Baekje, he was just a team leader. If we just did nothing honestly, he would He only served as a garrison soldier for one year and then returned to his hometown. He couldn't even become a captain, so how could he be where he is today?"
After listening to Heijia Changzhi's words, everyone believed a little more in Heijia Changzhi's words. The reason is very simple. The first part was okay, but the last part was really taboo. If Wang Wenzuo hadn't taken it seriously, As I said, even if Hei Chi Changzhi had some courage, he wouldn't dare to make it up. But the second half of the words treated them as targets for gaining credit, which made them feel even more uncomfortable after hearing it.
"Well, let's not talk about this for now!" Dashude coughed twice and avoided this embarrassing topic: "Hei Te Changzhi, why are you here this time? Are you trying to persuade us to surrender?"
"Persuading you to surrender?" Hei Te Changzhi laughed: "If you were willing to surrender, you wouldn't have followed Fuyu Fengzhang to the Japanese country in the first place? I'm not a fool, how could I do it in vain?"
Hearing Hei Te Changzhi's words, Da Shude's face looked much better: "Then what are you doing here? You know, many of us are going to kill you!"
"If you want to kill me, wait until I finish what I said!" Hei Te Changzhi said with a smile: "I have nothing else to do here. I just want to ask you what your plans are next."
"What's your plan?" Dashude's face turned gloomy again, and he sighed: "There's nothing to hide from you. We have no way out now. The Japanese have sent people here two days ago, so let's We have a deadline to leave, otherwise we will have to fight each other, and where else can we go now?"
"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. Who told you to side with Brother Zhong in the first place!" Hei Te Chang said: "In the eyes of the newly ascended Japanese king, you are all members of the rebels. It's already very difficult to let you leave within a time limit. Be polite!"
"Hmph!" Dashude snorted coldly: "Speaking of which, our end has nothing to do with your family's King Commander. He is really the bane of us Baekje people!"
"Hahaha!" Hei Te Changzhi said with a smile, "What you said is true, but Governor Wang really has no intention of dealing with you. He spends all his thoughts on attacking the eldest brother, and you are just suffering a disaster!"
"It's a disaster for a fish in a pond, you said it well!" Dashude said with a bitter smile: "Our group of little soldiers and crab generals are really not worthy of the old man's special efforts to deal with it. It's just that we don't have the eyesight and happened to stay in the pond next to the city gate. Here, that’s why I’m unlucky, isn’t it?”
"All this has passed!" Hei Te Changzhi said with a smile: "Those who are dead are dead, and those who are alive have to look forward. Governor Wang has a way, I don't know if you are willing to take it!"
"A way? Let's go back to Baekje?" Da Shude asked.
"No!" Heiji Changzhi shook his head: "I won't hide it from you. After the king put down the rebellion, he redivided the land of Baekje. You followed Fuyu Fengzhang and fled to the Japanese country, and you have all been classified as rebels. , even if you want to go back now, there is no place for you in Baekje!"
"Where is that? Tang Dynasty?" Dashude showed a wry smile: "Now it seems that there is only one way for us to go!"
"No, it's another place!" Black Teeth Changzhi said: "You have lived here for a while. You should know that there are some small islands in the southwest of Kyushu Island, right?"
"You didn't say it was Ryukyu Island, right?" Dashude's face suddenly turned dark: "Wouldn't it be worse to die than to go to such a ghost place? Anyway, we are mortal enemies with him, so he deserves to torture us like this. righteousness!"
"Don't talk nonsense and miss the good intentions of the King's Governor!" Black Teeth Changzhi shouted: "The Governor is an upright person. If he wants to take revenge on you, he only needs to do nothing. Naturally, there will be Japanese people to do it for him, so why waste so much effort? ? Those islands are important places, and if you occupy them, you will benefit from them!"
"Benefits? A few desert islands in the sea, what other benefits can there be?"
"Have you ever eaten stone honey?" Black Teeth Changzhi asked.
"No!" Dashude turned around and asked the people behind him: "Which of you has ever eaten stone honey?"
Everyone shook their heads, and only one person replied hesitantly: "I haven't eaten it either, but I heard from the monk that it is an extremely precious medicinal material. It tastes as sweet as honey, is as solid as stone and is very light. I don't know if it is this." !”
"That's it!" Kuroto Tsunezhi smiled and said: "The first benefit is this stone honey. The land and climate on Ryukyu Island are very suitable for growing sugar cane, and this stone honey is born from sugar cane. Think about it, If I give you a place that can produce such precious medicinal materials, will the Governor Wang harm you?"
"Is there such a thing?" Dashude exclaimed: "The King and Governor even know this, it is really amazing, but we are old enemies with him, why should such a good thing happen to us?"
"Wrong!" Black Teeth Tsunezhi sneered: "The enemies of Governor Wang are Fuyu Fengzhang, Onimuro Fukunobu, Nakadai, and Anbei Hirafu. As for you, you are just Fuyu Fengzhang's subordinates! Fuyu Feng When Zhang was still alive, Governor Wang would naturally pursue him closely, but now that Fuyu Fengzhang is dead, unless you continue to fight, you are not his enemy in his eyes, do you still want to fight?"
"No, no, no!" Dashude waved his hands quickly: "I don't want to, I don't want to! Fuyu Fengzhang is dead and has no descendants left, so why are we fighting?"
"I don't want to fight either. It used to be for the sake of restoring the country, but now there's no one named Buyeo, so why fight?"
"Yes, if there is really no way to survive, just fight to the death. Why fight to the death when there is obviously a way out?"
"The Commander-in-Chief did not forget old grudges and gave him a new path. We are grateful before it is too late. There is no trace of betrayal!"
Hei Te Changzhi saw that everyone's attitude had changed, and he couldn't help but admire Wang Wenzuo more and more. Before he came, he was originally prepared to die, but Wang Wenzuo smiled and said: "You don't have to worry too much, if I guessed it Yes, your trip this time is probably a near miss. As long as this group of people doesn't cut off your head as soon as they meet and don't give you a chance to speak, otherwise you have a 70-80 chance of winning. In the final analysis, They are brave as long as they are brave, but they are just trapped beasts who know they will die. As long as you give them hope, they will naturally fall apart. Despair can certainly make people brave, but in the end they cannot bear the blow of hope!"
"In addition to Shimi, Ryukyu Island has a second benefit!" Hei Te Changzhi said: "You have all heard of Yangzhou, right?"
"Yangzhou? Of course I've heard of it!" Da Shude didn't ask anyone else this time: "Yang Yi Yi Er, I heard a monk say in the past that this is the richest city in the Tang Dynasty!"
"That's good!" Hei Te Changzhi said with a smile: "The Governor Wang said that this Ryukyu Island has a maritime trade route to Yangzhou of the Tang Dynasty!"
If there are still people asking about the first benefit, then no one has spoken out about the second benefit. If you talk about sugar cane plantations, Iwami Silver Mountain, Sado Jinshan, Jiangnan silk industry, Hokkaido whaling and fishing, you Kilns and Spice Islands are cash cows, and the wealth that can be brought by controlling trade routes is the Federal Reserve. In ancient times, most of the profits from ocean trade went to middlemen, not to producers and end-sellers. Take the high-tech and high-profit silk manufacturing industry recognized in ancient times. From the origin of China to Macau, the cost is at most twice as much, while from Macau to Lisbon it is conservatively estimated to be ten times, and even to Japan it is seven to eight times.
The traditional trade route between China and Japan is from Shandong - Korean Peninsula - Kyushu Island, Japan - Seto Inland Sea - Nara, Japan. The advantage of this route is that you can sail all the way along the coast without worrying about getting lost, and it is very safe. But the problem is that the war between the Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo affected the safety of this route. Although you can go directly to Baekje from the end of the Shandong Peninsula without passing through Goguryeo, it will be very troublesome if it is blown to the coast of Goguryeo by strong sea winds. If another waterway between Japan and the Tang Dynasty could be found, especially if it could lead directly to a major trading port like Yangzhou, the wealth it could bring would be simply astronomical.
"What's wrong? Why don't you say anything?" Black Teeth Changzhi asked.
"Oh!" Dashude laughed awkwardly: "It's nothing, it's just that we haven't made any contribution to the Governor. Why is it our turn for such a good thing? It feels a bit fake!"
"You can judge for yourself in the future whether it is true or false!" Hei Teochang said: "Anyway, these words were told to you by the Governor Wang. You can decide to accept or reject them!"
"Accept, accept!" Dashude hurriedly said: "The Governor is magnanimous when he spares our lives, let alone other things. We can't be ignorant of good and evil, right?" His last sentence was to ask others of.
"Yes, yes, although we are stupid, we are not ungrateful people!"
"Please also ask Brother Chang to go back and report to the Governor. As long as he gives the order, everyone will set off immediately!"
Dashude was relatively calm. He pulled Hei Te Changzhi aside and whispered: "Brother Hei Te, it's not that we are trying to shirk the blame. It's just that if you want to go to Ryukyu Island, you need guides, sailors, and ships. These are all It can't be prepared in one or two days, and the Japanese have restricted us to leave within half a month! Isn't this too hasty?"
"You should have ships and sailors, right? How else could you come to Japan from Baekje? As for guides, as far as I know, the trade between Japan and Ryukyu is very frequent, so it shouldn't be difficult to recruit, right?"
"There are still ships, but since we came to Japan, they have been dragged ashore. They have not been used. Many of them are damaged. They need to be repaired and the sailors have to be recruited again!"
"I understand?" Hei Qichang said, "Is one month enough?"
Dashude gritted his teeth: "I'll hold on tight!"
"Okay, then in one month, I will go and negotiate with the Japanese for you!" Hei Te Chang said: "In one month, the deputy general of the King's Governor will come, you must be ready by then. Got it!"
"The acting officer of the King's Governor?" Dashude was startled: "What's wrong? It's not you?"
"Of course!" Hei Te Changzhi lowered his voice: "How important this matter is. I am from Baekje, and you are also from Baekje. If you let me command you, wouldn't it be suspected of colluding to hide the truth from your superiors? Mo. He said that the Governor Wang didn’t send me there, so even if he really asked me to go, I would find a way to turn it down!”
Today I asked the editor about recommendations. The recommendation mechanism of Qidian.com is really complicated. If you fall behind for a niche article like this, you will fall behind step by step. If readers of a certain type of book like to read books and talk about it later, then this type Books will only become more and more marginalized and eventually become extinct.
