Chapter 598: The Great Song Dynasty is really under the Celestial Empire

I don't know when the Khitans became less ferocious, and they no longer slaughtered the tribes of the Zhab people with wheels at every turn. The strong men who were caught by them became property that could be sold for money.

The Jiehe Trading City now has a large number of projects and a very strong demand for labor, so it has become the terminal of the slave trade. In the past few years, at least tens of thousands of barbarian slaves from the Zhubu tribe or elsewhere have been sold to the Jiehe Trading Market.

Wu Haogu asked his men to buy the strong men at a high price and formed a convoy - he did this not to rebel, but to facilitate the management of slaves. The saving of these strong slaves became the core of the slave revolt.

However, there are not many who meet the standards of strong slaves, and Wu Haogu has acquired a total of two or three hundred, of which more than 100 people have been trained into an infantry team, and Wu Haogu has been transferred to Haizhou.

Of course, these hundreds of warriors followed Murong Wang's nephews empty-handed. After arriving in Haizhou, Wu Haogu took out 100 pairs of iron armor from the weapons he had privately intercepted and equipped them.

As for the long swords and rattan shields they used, they were all weapons that could be legally traded, so Wu Haogu had people buy new swords from the blacksmith shop in Haizhou Yanchang, and also had people buy the best shields.

And this escort of hundreds of people is not for the use of Wu Haogu himself, but to give a scene to make the mission of the Goryeo Kingdom full - the Goryeo people are also big now, if they don't show a little prestige, they are afraid that the future business will not be good.

In addition, these people were to be used for the Japanese mission. Of course, I won't really go to Japan, but will be "blown away" by the wind to Tamna......

"Tamna ...... Does Xuanzan want Tamna to be a vassal of my Great Song Dynasty? Tong Guan listened to Wu Haogu's plan, frowned and asked.

Of course, he knew that Tamna was a vassal state of Goryeo...... If the Great Song Dynasty had a conflict with Goryeo on the issue of Tamna, the two sides would tear their faces if they didn't get it right. Will he, the envoy of the army, be arrested by the Koreans? He Tong Guan still has to keep a useful body to fight for the official family in the south and the north!

If it is slaughtered by the Goryeo people like this, it will be a loss for the Great Song Dynasty......

"No, no, no," Wu Haogu just shook his head, "Tamna is from Goryeo, there is no objection to that. The official just wanted to use Tamna as a springboard to open the door to Japan. ”

Of course, there are objections, but they can't be said clearly now, otherwise Tong Guan would not dare to go to Goryeo.

Tong Guan frowned: "I'm afraid Japan is not easy to handle, right?" They have closed the country since the end of the Tang Dynasty and ignore us. ”

"Ignore it?" Wu Haogu laughed, "Is this difficult for me?" As long as shoins, ports, markets, and ranches could be established on the territory of Tamna, Japan's borders would not be closed.

Moreover, there are already Japanese officials coming to us! ”

"Oh? Is it? Tong Guan raised his eyebrows.

"Really?" Su Shi on the side also became excited, "This is something unprecedented since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty!" ”

This is no small matter!

Japan sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty one after another. However, the envoys sent to the Song Dynasty never came, only some Japanese monks came to the Great Song Dynasty.

And the number of times that the Great Song Dynasty moved to Japan was also less than the number of times that the Japanese returned.

Considering that the Great Song Dynasty had so many Ming Jun who surpassed the "mediocre monarch" Li Shimin, he couldn't let the Japanese send envoys to worship, which is a bit faceless!

"Did Japan send an envoy back?" Tong Guan knew that Yuntai Academy now had the power to move Japan, and thought that Su Dongpo had a big face, and the Japanese finally responded.

"The return has arrived," Wu Hao Gudao, "and an official has been sent to us to learn Confucianism." ”

In fact, the transfer of the Yuntai Academy is now sinking into the sea, and the Japanese have not responded at all - the Yuntai Academy's invitation to Japanese Confucians to come to China for re-education is mostly enough for their court to discuss for the first half of the year! And the result of the discussion can also be imagined, it must have been a rejection! The Great Japan now also thinks that it is the Celestial Empire, and it refuses to have an equal fellowship with the Goryeo Kingdom, let alone the imperial exchanges with the Great Song Dynasty? What if the samurai of Japan saw too much of the Celestial Empire of the Great Song Dynasty and yearned for it?

However, it doesn't matter if the Japanese don't respond, Wu Haogu asked his copywriter Wu Chenglan to go to the library of Yuntai School Palace to find a copy of the transfer from Japan to the Mingzhou Prefecture, and then copy it......

"Oh?" Tong Guan asked, "Have people already arrived?" ”

"It's here!" Wu Haogu smiled, "He's also watching the great military appearance of my Great Song Dynasty like us!" ”

"Really?" Tong Guan said, "Then we have to meet quickly!" ”

……

Abiliu's relatives stood on the newly completed Yuntai School Palace building, the four-storey Yuntai Pavilion, and looked at the training scene on the school field below, and the whole person was a little stupid.

In fact, this Abi has been in a state of stunned since he stayed in Haizhou!

Everything here is something he never dreamed of! The houses are tall and sturdy, the walls are thick and strong, the people are richly dressed, and the food is rich and delicious...... Everything shows that the Great Song Empire is the real Celestial Empire!

And now, when he saw the ironclad warriors of the Great Song Dynasty, he inhaled it even more coolly.

Those warriors of the Great Song Dynasty were all shining, and they were wearing iron armor? How expensive should that iron armor be?

If so many ironclad warriors arrived on Tsushima Island, the Abidliu family would probably perish, right?

Not only the Abidyu family on Tsushima Island can't bear it, but even His Majesty's northern samurai probably can't beat these Great Song warriors wearing iron clothes, right?

"Such a samurai...... How many Great Song Emperors were there? ”

"Eight hundred thousand!" Hua Manshan Road, who was standing beside Abiliu's relatives, said, "The Great Song Dynasty has 800,000 forbidden troops, all of them are the same as them!" ”

This ...... The Great Song Dynasty had to have a forbidden army of 800,000 and the same as the Divination Heroes, and the Great Liao Kingdom and the Western Xia Kingdom were long gone.

"Eight hundred thousand?" Abiliu's relatives didn't believe it, "There are so many iron-clad warriors, why can't they destroy the Khitan?" ”

"Because the Khitan has 400,000 iron horsemen!" Hua Manshan sighed, "The iron cavalry is more powerful than the iron infantry, so 800,000 iron armor soldiers can't beat 400,000 iron cavalry." ”

Abidyu took a breath and thought to himself: If the Great Song Emperor took 10,000 out of his 800,000 ironclad soldiers and sent them to Japan, Japan would probably be destroyed!

When his heart was pounding, the sound of hurried footsteps came, and then a voice sounded: "Outside the flowers, the door is extended, and the Japanese state has invited the Song envoy Abi to stay in the first place." ”

Send Song envoys?

Abidliu's relatives were shocked when they heard this name.

"How did you become an envoy to the Song Dynasty?"

Hua Manshan smiled and said gently: "Qinyi, don't you want to be a retainer of Xuanzan?" ”

"Ah......" Abidliu nodded. He didn't make up his mind, but after seeing his sister's new home, he never wanted to go back to Tsushima.

That manor is really more magnificent than Tianmangong!

The walls are all made of bricks...... That's all there is to the Heavenly Emperor, right?

There are also endless delicacies, and those silk satins, and mountains of copper coins (thousands of copper coins are too much to put together...... Abiliu's relatives can't wait to be a woman, and they also make a side room for Hua Manshan!

"Of course!" Abiliu's relatives nodded heavily, "I have already made up my mind to follow His Excellency." ”

"Then pretend to be a Song envoy!" Hua Manshan said, "You will soon be a retainer of Xuanzan, not a retainer of the Hara Fuji family." ”

"It's the Fujiwara family, and the lord of the Abidyu family is the Fujiwara family, the first in Japan."

Hua Manshan waved his hand, "Whether it's Hara Teng or Fujiwara, it's definitely not as rich as we proclaim, right?" Xuanzan is the first rich man in the Great Song Dynasty except for the official family! Your lord in Japan can't control you anymore, what are you afraid of? ”

That's right! Abidliu's relatives didn't expect that there was a royal law in the Great Song Dynasty, but they just felt that the lord of Abidliu's family couldn't catch him, so he was relieved.

……

"It's really an official of Japan!"

Tong Guan looked at Abiliu Qinyi, who was brought to him and wore a samurai brown suit, and arched his hand and asked, "I don't know what the official position of this Japanese official is his name?" ”

"This official is ......" Abiliu was a little stuck when he said this, but he didn't show his stuff, because he was a Japanese official, and it was normal for him to speak Chinese - in fact, most Japanese officials could speak Chinese. Although Abiliu is not a public family, he has been working in Hakata Port, has had more contact with Song Shang, and has also learned a Chinese dialect, but with a Mingzhou accent (Ningbo dialect).

Hua Manshan smiled and replied for Abiliu's kiss: "This is the Japanese Dazai's young eunuch Abiliu's kinichi." The Dazaifu of Japan is equivalent to the Jiedu envoy in the former Tang Dynasty, and is in charge of everything such as the local military and political diplomacy on the island of Kyushu. Shogun Dazai is equivalent to the deputy position of Judge of Tsutsudo. ”

He actually said that he was a young eunuch of Dazai!

Abiliu, who can understand Chinese, blushes a little, but fortunately, his complexion is relatively dark, and he can't see it even if he is red.

"Hay!" Blushing to blushing, in order to become the retainer of the richest man in the Great Song Dynasty, Abiliu also fought hard and nodded stubbornly.

Tong Guan listened to a rough idea, he didn't know how big Kyushu Island was? However, the official equivalent of the "deputy judge of the festival" is not small. So he arched his hand and said, "I don't know why the young eunuch came to visit my court?" ”

"This official is ordered to learn from Confucianism." Abidiliu said in Mingzhou official words.

Tong Guan and Wu Haogu didn't understand it very well, and Hua Manshan said with a smile: "The young eunuch came to the Great Song Dynasty to study the "Tianli Theory", and he also hopes to invite a few doctors from the Yuntai Academy to open a academy in Japan to teach the "Tianli Theory". ”

What Hua Manshan said was said in the forged transfer - this "transfer diplomacy" took place between Dazaifu and Yuntai Academy, and did not involve the imperial courts of both sides.

"I see!" Tong Guan nodded, and looked at Wu Haogu again, "Xuanzan, is there anyone in the Yuntai Academy Palace to send?" ”

"Yes," Wu Haogu smiled, "I have prepared 10 doctors and 100 retinues, and I plan to ask Su Zhongnan to lead a team to Hakata in Japan." ”
