It's November, and it's autumn. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
When it is a faint distant mountain, a bleak falling flower, and the autumn wind is smashing, there is probably only a remnant scene, and the day when the warbler flies and swallows dances is also fluttering away in the sunset.
However, in Chang'an, the capital of the empire, it is not the scene of depression in this season, but it seems to be a lively scene of the New Year.
When the news of the surrender of the Wa Kingdom came back to Chang'an, the emperor was overjoyed and the people were excited.
The king of Hejian County and Jingyang Hou escaped death, and after returning home, they led the Tang Dynasty Navy Division, swept the Wa Kingdom with twelve naval warships, occupied Osaka, and then occupied Fujiwara Jing, the capital of the Wa Kingdom, without bloodshed, and the lord of the Wa State wrote to ask for surrender, and from beginning to end, the matter of the Tang Dynasty without any damage to a soldier has been spread throughout the Tang Dynasty with the mouth of the courtiers, with the newspapers, and with the word of mouth of the people.
The lord of the Wa State and the important ministers of the Wa State court have been escorted by the Tang Dynasty Marines to Chang'an. The good news came first, the emperor feasted the ministers, opened a curfew for three days, and the people took to the streets one after another to enjoy the joy of victory.
"Before, there were Li Jing's 3,000 elite horsemen who broke Dingxiang, and then, Su Dingfang's 200 people rushed to kill the tooth tent and captured 10,000 people. Now, there are Li Xiaogong and Xia Hongsheng with twelve warships to destroy the Japanese kingdom without losing a single soldier! I'm not afraid of your jokes, I've been so happy that I can't sleep these days! In the Liangyi Palace, Li Shimin said to his confidants and ministers. These people were summoned by him to discuss the next step in dealing with the Japanese state.
"The Wa Kingdom is disrespectful to the Tang Dynasty, and this time it was destroyed by the twelve warships of the Tang Dynasty, which is letting the world know that no one can offend my Datang Tianwei, and it can also alert the surrounding subject countries." Yu Shinan said.
Li Shimin nodded with a smile, and said: "The reason why I am happy is not only because of the defeat and surrender of the Japanese State, but also because of the changes in the Tang Army. I think that in the founding of the Tang Dynasty, I have experienced countless wars and turmoil, every time there is a war, thousands of people are recruited at every turn, the battlefield is rushed, the horses gallop, the long soldiers fight each other, and the short soldiers are connected, even if they win, the soldiers are more than half of the casualties. Now, with Xia Hongsheng in the military academy with a variety of tactics blended, in the military machine workshop to make all kinds of new weapons, my Tang Dynasty soldiers will gradually not need that old-fashioned things. Just like this time, destroy the country! Unexpectedly, they didn't lose a single soldier, and the Japanese and our Tang soldiers didn't fight in front of each other, let alone line up against each other, and they had already collapsed. Nowadays, the army is not limited to the tactics of war, and the utensils used are changing with each passing day. I remember that in Xia Hongsheng's Jingyang Academy, there is a very eye-catching and conspicuous big character on the wall, oh, it is still the handwriting of Yu Shaojian, written with the sentence 'Gou Rixin, and Rixin, **** new', this new in the army is what I am happy about, and this 'new' is very useful, very beneficial, and even more overjoyed! ā
"Your Majesty is truly an enlightened saint!" Zhu Suiliang listened to Li Shimin's words and said: "Tang Zhi, "Pan Ming" said: Gou Rixin, **** new, and new. "Kanghe" said: Be a new people. "Poem" said: Although Zhou is an old state, its life is renewed. It is the gentleman who does everything he can. Shang Tang engraved in the words of the inscription, if there is faith in one day, there is something new in the day, and the new is new. It is also said in "Kanghe" that people should abandon the old and seek the new. "The Book of Songs" also says: Although Zhou is an old country, its destiny is renewed. People of high moral character seek perfection everywhere, which is in response to the enlightenment of His Majesty! ā
These words came out of Zhu Suiliang's mouth, which sounded a little strange, because Zhu Suiliang has always been a little conservative and relatively conservative.
But Li Shimin was also relieved to hear it, and couldn't help laughing a few times.
After laughing, he got to the point, and said to everyone: "I have summoned you here today to ask you what you think about how to deal with the Wa Kingdom in the future. ā
Datang dealt with the surrounding defeated countries, and most of them had two ways before. First, the defeated country bowed to the Tang Dynasty, paid tribute at the age of the year, and served the Tang Dynasty with the courtesy of the ministers, and named the emperor as the king, and he was the minister, and the position of the lord of the country must be sealed by the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty made him king, released the captives, appeased him more, and asked him to manage the original land, or establish a state of bondage. This method is the method of Huairou, which has always been respected by Kong Yingda, Zhu Suiliang and Wen Yanbo. Second, the Tang Dynasty divided it from the original country into states and counties, moved the people in, and the people lived together, although they still had their people under the official jurisdiction of their land, but they had to follow the decree of the imperial court. This is the method of occupying land, which is mostly respected by generals in the army, and Wei Zheng and others.
Later, when Xia Hongsheng came, there was another way. His captives were used as war criminals, and they were used as conscripts and reformed through labor. While working, while instilling ideological and political education, once the time limit passed, as the Tang people scattered all over the place, the original place of the country, the new state and county of the Tang Dynasty, moved into the Han people, and was appointed by the imperial court to appoint officials, so that the people learned the Tang Dynasty, and gradually carried out the policy of cultural assimilation. This method is the most liked by the bigwigs in the army, but it is hated by Kong Yingda and others. Because his heart is too dark, and he has no saint's heart. For example, the previous Turkic Jieli tribe was divided into several states after it was destroyed. Before the change, either the captives were returned, and then a lot of rewards were given to appease, and Jieli was called a vassal. Either they will be driven out of the country and placed in the state. Now, because of Xia Hongsheng's attention, those Turkic captives have become the laborers of the Tang Dynasty, and the Turkic land has become an ordinary state and county under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, which must be managed by officials appointed by the imperial court. Not to mention other long-term things, just those prisoners of war who replaced the people as conscripts and became laborers made Datang get countless benefits.
Therefore, someone immediately said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the previous method of disposing of the Turks has many benefits, and it can still be practiced as a method for disposing of the Japanese state." ā
The person who spoke was Wei Zheng, and as soon as this remark came out, it was immediately echoed by several generals in the army.
"It's not proper, the Japanese country is not as good as the Turks, there is a sea barrier in it, and it is inconvenient to come and go, if it is under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, then it is not all spent on the road to and fro!" Some people are in favor, and naturally some people are against.
"Definitely. This battle was also different from that of the Turks. The Turks were defeated and captured, so there were those captives for labor. And the Wa Kingdom surrendered on its own initiative, how can I, the Tang Dynasty, arrest the people of its country for conscription? ā
"It is precisely because of the inconvenience of the exchanges between the Wa Kingdom and the Tang Dynasty that the Tang Dynasty should take charge of its affairs. Otherwise, in a few years, wouldn't the Wa Kingdom be a Wa State again? Wei Zheng retorted.
Listening to a few people arguing, Li Shimin suddenly smiled and interjected: "By the way, I have decided to change the land of the Japanese Kingdom to the Tang Dynasty Dongying Road, as the first colony of the Tang Dynasty and the land of the Tang Dynasty. ā
Li Shimin's words made everyone in the room stunned, although they couldn't understand the meaning of the words that Li Shimin had said before, but they all understood the meaning of Li Shimin's last sentence. (To be continued.) )
