Section 492 Helping others is fun
The bathymetric ship sent proved Oyama Iwachi's statement, and if you continue to move forward, you will definitely hit the rocks!
It sounds like everyone is afraid, if you run aground, the trouble is not counted, there is a possibility of losing a boat, and it is not good for the morale of the soldiers. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Do you know the nearby waterways? Jiang consulted the interpreter and asked him.
The widow who went on board to collect taxes could not be underestimated, and he drew the route on the chart with a clear and clear mark, marking the shoals and reefs that were prone to running aground.
"Why are you helping us?" Jiang asked him.
In the cabin, Jiang Zhi invited this widow who had helped Tang Jun a lot to drink tea.
Longjing tea is tantamount to fairy dew elixir for people who have never drunk it, but the Japanese people have no intention of tasting it, and pour tea into their stomachs like cows chewing peonies.
"For revenge!" Oyama Iwachi's eyes shone with hatred.
He told his story that his family was originally a merchant in the Inland Sea (Seto), and there was a large cargo ship that brought Tang goods from Nagato to to Nara, and the business was booming, and the income was not bad.
With this business, his father brought him and his brothers together, and they grew up on the ship, helping his father, and the family worked together to earn money.
But when he was twenty-five years old, their ship was in big trouble, and while docked at Nagato Tokuyama Castle (located below the Kanmon Strait) for supplies, the owner who chartered their ship got drunk at the hotel and revealed that their cargo was fine Tang silk, which was heard by the local wealthy Yuguang clan!
In the age of lawlessness, the wealthy were equated with robbers, except that they were licensed.
For example, Shi Chong, who was known for his wealth in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (the one who got the beautiful green pearl), once made a history of Jingzhou Thorn, and he made his fortune by robbing merchants from afar and making a fortune.
The Yuguang clan then sent a clipper to rob and kill the owner of the cargo and the family of Oyama Iwachi, except for Oyama Iwachi who jumped into the sea to escape.
Pity his family all died in the hands of the Yuguang clan, and even the body could not be recovered---- after the success, the Yuguang clan moved the silk and burned the big ship, and there was no proof of death.
Dashan Yanzhi secretly returned to Changxuan City, and it was easy to find out that it was the Yuguang clan who did it, because his family wore those silks, which were very beautiful and chic, and they couldn't be bought on the market at all.
Oyama Iwachi even recognized the leader of the killers who took action that day, which was none other than a samurai of the Uko clan named Uko Akino.
What's the use of recognizing?
Haoqiang didn't care about this matter being exposed at all, the local government was the Yuguang clan, and the bigger Haoqiang would help a small people to deal with the powerful local snake.
Rely on personal strength to take revenge? It's a pity that he is not a samurai and does not have the force of a single pup.
As for other friends, forget it, friends who are kind-hearted only exist in fairy tales, and they are even more difficult to find.
Dashan Iwazhi had no choice but to obey the words that his father shouted at him when he dived: "Live!" ”
He made a living by running ships in the Seto Inland Sea, and then married a wife and raised a son, and after more than ten years of busyness, he used all his savings and connections to find a position as a tax collector in this Kanmon Strait and settle down.
But in his heart, the thought of revenge haunted his heart all the time, and it became more and more hot.
In his words, he heard the screams and cries of his parents underground!
Finally, he waited for this opportunity to avoid a major accident for the Tang ship, and may even save the lives of a boatload of people!
As a result, the Tang people owed him a favor, and he used this favor to ask the Tang people to go to Changxuan City to exterminate the Yuguang clan!
"You're going to Kyoto, aren't you?" Dashan Yanzhi is rashly authentic.
He said eagerly: "I am very familiar with this sea route, I have followed my father on this sea route since I was born, and I can help you navigate it!" ”
“good!” Jiang Zhi nodded.
In this expedition to the capital of Japan, the Tang Army also prepared nautical charts, but due to the conditions at that time, the nautical chart data was not complete, as evidenced by the almost landslides just now.
Hence the need for navigators, so much!
When the heavens heard their request, they sent a navigator down from the sky, and his request couldn't be smaller, just need the Tang Army to kill people?
Killing people is the profession of the army, and killing people is a piece of cake.
Jiang Shi sent a ferry boat to report the matter to the general Wei Xi and asked him to decide.
At present, it is a little troublesome that the Tang ship has a strong supply capacity, so there is no need to dock at Changxuan at all, but this is not a big problem.
The general's reply soon came: "The Tang people will repay their thoughts, help others for pleasure, and help the Japanese people to avenge, it is up to the former army commander Jiang Zhi to decide." ”
The first thing Jiang Shi did when he was authorized was to get Oyama Iwachi's family on the ship, first, to protect his family, and second, to hold hostages.
He sent an envoy to a neighboring town to intimidate one or two, and the name was: "Your tax collector has gone mad? Our governor was furious and decided to punish the family! Hand over the tax collector's family to appease the wrath of our chief. ”
"Otherwise, you will bear the consequences!"
It's just a small people, it doesn't matter, see the Tang people's boat again, that soldier! The local heroes obediently sent out Oyama Yanzhi's wife, two sons and one daughter.
After they got on the ship, Jiang Zhi ordered five warships to be set up, led by Dashan Yanzhi, and went straight to Deshan City!
……
The trip went unusually well, and left a deep impression on the moving lieutenant.
Oyama Iwachi instructed the Tang boat where to dock at the wharf, went ashore, and went straight to the Umitsu clan's mansion, shop, and wharf in the city, and led the way to Beppu outside the Umitsu clan, and all of them were not left behind.
He was very familiar with the road, and obviously spent a lot of effort, and when he asked, Oyama Iwachi secretly sneaked back to Tokuyama Castle every two years to investigate, and identified the members of the Umitsu clan one by one.
Break down the door and kill when you resist, and if you don't resist, you will stake them together.
Although the Yuguang clan is strong, it is not worth mentioning in front of the world's first violent machine.
So the Yuguang family gathered in the main mansion, and in front of everyone, Oyama Iwachi announced the sins of the Yuguang clan, and then used the sharp knife handed over to him by the Tang army, and slashed the Yuguang clan patriarch and Yuguang Akino, and the other Yuguang clans were cut down by the Tang army!
Don't kill unrelated people, robbed the Yuguang family's property as compensation for Dashan Yanzhi (of course, most of it is military expenses), knowing that the Japanese people believe in Buddhism, so he warned them: "It's not that you don't report it, the time has not come, the fruit of today, the cause of the day before yesterday!" ”
Returning with the ship, Oyama Iwachi, who had taken revenge, became the navigator of the Tang fleet, leading the ship to avoid the dangerous shoals, reefs, and whirlpools dotted with the Seto Inland Sea, and sail smoothly to Kyoto, becoming a qualified leader of the way.
……
Jiang Shi went to the handsome ship to report the military situation to Wei Xi, and was deeply touched: "This trip was really smooth enough, and when we were about to hit the reef, a pilot (navigator) actually fell from the sky, allowing us to avoid danger. ”
The others also said happily: "There are indeed a lot of leading parties." ”
Wei Xi said lightly: "Heaven is standing in a strong army this time, no one would want to fight with giants, the Japanese people are never stupid, there are characters such as Doi Gang, Kibi Zhenzong, and Oyama Iwachi who obey our army, and Yamamoto Fifty-six doesn't want to go to war with Emperor Mi!" ”
"Yamamoto fifty-six?"
"A Japanese name!" Wei Xi shrugged. (To be continued.) )
