The Tang Dynasty is so powerful that the world can't resist it.

Fang Jun never thought that if he participated in the war of Linyi Kingdom, he would be able to defeat the Zhenla army, this was not conceit, but self-confidence. If the nomads in the grasslands of the northwest may still have the strength to fight against the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, then these countries in Southeast Asia, which have grown up bathed in the culture of the Han people, have been scum-like since ancient times.

In fact, not only the Tang Dynasty, but any unified Central Plains Dynasty in history has crushed these small southeastern countries in terms of military strength, and teach them to be human beings anytime and anywhere!

Even if the sailors under his command are now elite, there are no less than 3,000 people, and they are equipped with heavy armor and earth-shattering thunder, which is enough to destroy a country in front of these small countries in Southeast Asia without much effort.

Of course, fighting a war is to kill people, and the shroud of a soldier's horse leather is nothing, but the life of every soldier must die worthwhile, which can bring benefits to the country, and can also bring sufficient compensation to his parents, wives and children in his family.

Then, Fang Jun had to weigh whether the losses that he might bear by helping Lin Yi resist the invasion of the enemy country were within the range he could bear. If you can bear such a loss, and you can get a satisfactory compensation from Lin Yiguo, then this battle can be fought.

On the contrary, Fang Jun could even destroy Lin Yi Kingdom by himself without hesitation!

Don't talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, between countries, all actions are a trade-off of interests......

Fan Zhenlong saw Fang Jun deep in thought, and immediately became nervous.

The Sui Dynasty was not established for a long time, because Linyi had not paid tribute to Chang'an for a long time, Emperor Wen of Sui sent the general Liu Fangnan to conquer Linyi. Liu Fang led the army all the way to the capital of Linyi, and took away eleven golden gods who sacrificed heaven and earth in the temple. After that, he retired from the army. In the first year of Emperor Yang of Sui, Emperor Yang sent an army to the south again, and that time he destroyed the Linyi State and divided the territory of the Linyi State into three counties. Fortunately, the Great Sui was not appeased in the country, and the army had to return.

Under the leadership of Fan Fanzhi, Lin Yiguo returned to the country after a bloody and bitter battle.

After that, the Tang Dynasty was established, and King Linyi was taken by the national prestige and was destroyed twice by the Great Sui, and he never dared to make a second time, and paid tribute every year, trying to repair the damaged relationship before......

However, Lin Yi and the Han people fought and made peace, and the relationship between the two sides was always stiff and cold, but the people-to-people contacts were increasing day by day, and the businessmen were in constant contact.

This time, the army of Zhenla pressed the border and went straight to the capital, and the military strength of the Linyi country was absolutely irresistible, and it seemed that the country was about to die again. Fan Fanzhi was desperate and had to go to the Jiaozhou Governor's Mansion to ask the Tang army to go south with a large amount of money to help Linyi resist Zhenla's attack.

Who knows if the Jiaozhou Governor's Office will send troops to come?

Fang Jun's arrival is like the guidance of the gods, maybe this means that Lin Yi's life should not be extinguished!

Fan Zhenlong can let such opportunities slip through his fingers?

If it was really because he failed to persuade Fang Jun, and the Jiaozhou Governor's Mansion could not send troops to lead to the destruction of the Linyi Kingdom, then Fan Zhenlong could only apologize with death, otherwise what face would he have to see the ancestors and ancestors?

Although the Han people have repeatedly destroyed the Linyi State, most of the reasons are just that the Linyi Kingdom sometimes swells and thinks that they don't need to look at the faces of the Han people, but every time they are slapped in the face by reality, in front of the Han army, no matter how brave and daring the Zhan people of the Linyi State are, they are just mantis arms as a car, and they are wiped out......

Fortunately, the Linyi Kingdom was too far away from the Central Plains of the Han people, so that the Han people could not look down on this small land, and each time they withdrew their troops after the occupation, so that the people of the Zhan people could successfully restore the country every time.

But if they are destroyed by Zhenla, who is close at hand, then all the Cham people must flee to the four seas, and the Zhenla people will kill all the Cham people to achieve the desire to occupy this land for a long time......

"Master Hou, Lin Yiguo and the Tang Dynasty are of the same origin, and they have always admired the culture of the Central Plains, and they have always been close to the Central Plains. The Han people did business in Linyi, and the treatment they received was no different from that of the Cham people, and we were all descendants of the Han people for five hundred years! You can't watch Lin Yi be wiped out by Zhenla, the Ji Mi tribe is all wild people who drink blood! ”

Fan Zhenlong couldn't help but cry out, his feelings were sincere, and his feelings were above.

Actually, this is pure nonsense......

The country of Linyi was originally Xianglin County, Rinan County of the Han Dynasty, and General Fubo opened the southern border of Han and placed this county. In the chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty, Gongcao District killed the county order and established himself as the king, and the country has been established since then. After several generations, the king had no heir, and his nephew Fan Xiong was the king.

It can be said that there are many descendants of Han people in Linyi, but the royal family of Linyi has no blood relationship with the Han people.

Fang Jun smiled, is being a brother a history novice?

Since you kid fooled your brother, don't blame your brother for being too ruthless......

"Brother Fan Mingjian, it's not that Benhou is unwilling to help, but the soldiers under Benhou's command are the royal sailors of the Tang Emperor's personal guards, and Benhou has the right to order, but he has no right to provoke the border. If you help Lin Yiguo resist foreign humiliation, it is inevitable that there will be casualties, how can this marquis explain to His Majesty the Emperor? Besides, Lin Yi and Zhenla are thousands of miles away from Datang, and the fight between you and others really has nothing to do with Datang, so how can Datang favor one over the other? ”

Fan Zhenlong was stunned for a moment and gritted his teeth.

He was a wise man, and his father, Fan Fanzhi, had always had high hopes for him, because of the wisdom and decisiveness he showed in his ordinary handling of government affairs.

The soldiers were killed and wounded, and they could not explain to the Tang Emperor, that is, they wanted Lin Yiguo to bear the post-war pension; The war between Lin Yi and Zhenla has nothing to do with Datang, so whether Datang can make a move or not, who to help depends on who knows the current affairs better......

Fan Zhenlong said without hesitation: "Please rest assured, if there are casualties among the Tang Dynasty soldiers, Lin Yiguo is willing to compensate them with ten times the pension stipulated by the Tang Dynasty." If the Tang Dynasty can help Lin Yi defend against foreign enemies, then Lin Yi is willing to spend 100,000 yuan as the military expenses of the Tang army, and all the grain, grass and weapons will be provided by Lin Yi State. At the same time, I also gave Hou Ye 50,000 yuan as a thank you gift. ”

The pension is mine, the grain, grass and weapons are also mine, and you take back 100,000 yuan to give an account to the court, and 50,000 yuan is the reward you promised to send troops, which is your net income......

I have to say that Fan Zhenlong is really thorough.

It's just a pity that he underestimated Fang Jun's appetite too much......

Fang Jun smiled dumbly.

50,000 yuan want my brother to give you his life?

Hehe, as long as my brother is willing, he can make millions in minutes......

He shook his head and said, "Brother Fan misunderstood, he is a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, and he is loyal to His Majesty, how can he participate in the war between the two countries without authorization for a little personal gain?" This is not in the interests of Datang. Moreover, the reason why Ben Hou led the fleet to Linyi Country this time was to come with a mission, mainly to buy 10,000 stone of rice seeds that are harvested three times a year, and 1 million stone of rice......"

Rice seeds are not the same as rice, complete rice seeds can be planted in the ground to grow rice, rice is hulled rice, can only be eaten, planted in the ground but nothing grows......

Fan Zhenlong was stunned and said: "It is only in recent years that our country has discovered rice varieties with three crops a year and extremely high yield, and even the Tang Dynasty has rumors?" ”

Fang Jun's heart jumped,!

Now there really is Champa rice!

Finally arrived at the field he was familiar with, for agricultural things, Fang Jun could kill all the farmers in this era in seconds! Champa rice is such a famous variety, how could he not know the details?

Although it is named after Champa, it is actually native to the Indian Peninsula, later spread to the Malay Peninsula, and then to China in the last years of the Tang Dynasty, where it was popularized on a large scale during the Song Dynasty.

Don't look at the excellent varieties of Champong rice, but in fact, the grain in Linyi, Chenla, Siam and other countries is not high, why? These "wild people" are very lazy, they don't know and don't bother to work intensively, anyway, there is plenty of water in this place, the climate is suitable, and they can receive food no matter how they tinker, so what are you doing when you are tired?

Extensive cultivation and no irrigation measures, rice is planted directly into the ground and left to grow naturally, you know that the yield can be high......

Fang Jun naturally couldn't show his urgent emotions in front of Fan Zhenlong, so he pretended to be calm and said: "I just heard that an Arab Hu businessman talked about this, and when Ben Hou continued to train the sailor, he came to take a look, but I didn't expect it to be true?" ”

Fan Zhenlong's field is repentant.

It's not that he is reluctant to plant rice, but there are very few such rice seeds in Linyi Country, and it is 10,000 stone at once......

But what is it compared to Guozuo?

Fan Zhenlong made up his mind, since he wanted to satisfy this marquis who held the power of the army, then don't pick and squeeze the people who searched and searched a little and promised a little by himself, just take one step and stop this man!

Gritting his teeth at the moment, Fan Zhenlong said magnificently: "No problem, 10,000 stone rice seeds, it can be regarded as handing over to Hou Ye, a friend, for nothing!" As for one million stone rice, after the Zhenla army retreats, Hou Ye only needs to pay half the price! ”
