Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 651
This area of ​​Juqishan County has the only area in Silla that can be regarded as a real blacksmith workshop. It is also an important town when the peninsula entered the Iron Age. Some of the north is the political and cultural center of Silla.

Here has a new name in later generations, called Busan.

When Liumu's fleet arrived at the inner bay of Yeongdo, Jin Baijing, who had been suffering from serious illness in recent years, was already waiting at the temporary pier. Kinderman, Mr. Park, and other nobles from Silla had all arrived.

Liu Mu noticed that Ba Dao was standing beside Jin Baijing.

After getting off the boat, Liu Mu quickly walked up to King Jin Baijing of Silla Jinbaijing and supported him with both hands: "You are an elder, and asking you to come out to greet me really frightens the younger generation. According to the etiquette, I should be the one visiting the palace. The wind here Daddy, I'll help you go inside first."

It has been fifty years since Jin Baijing became the king of Silla. He has seen all kinds of people and all kinds of conspiracies.

But at this time, he was still not sure about Liu Mu.

He knew that his daughter had ambitions to become the first Queen of Silla, but he never expected that Kinderman would find a consort of the Tang Dynasty for help.

There is no helping out of thin air, and no one gives gifts without expecting anything in return.

Jin Baijing couldn't think of what Liu Mu wanted from Silla, and it was definitely not just his daughter.On beauty, on talent, on status.My own daughter is inconspicuous in Datang, and there are countless women from famous families in Datang who are better than her.

Not to mention the noble princess of the Tang Dynasty, only Jin Deman, the daughter of the Xiao family who is well-known in the south of the Tang Dynasty, can't compare.

So what does Tang want?
The reason why Jin Baijing had to meet Liu Mu in person was because he wanted to get an answer, but unfortunately at this moment he felt that he couldn't see through this young man.

At the banquet that night, Liu Mu got drunk after drinking less than ten glasses of wine, and the reason was that he was tired from the journey.

The host and guest left, which made it impossible for the nobles of Silla to continue the banquet.

In the middle of the night, what Jin Baijing never expected was that Liu Mu wanted to meet him, and the place was on a beach in the port.He also requested that Jin Baijing come here alone as much as possible, and if he brought someone with him, he should also bring someone he absolutely trusted.

With endless doubts, Jin Baijing finally chose to meet Liu Mu alone.

On the beach, this location is a sheltered bay, surrounded by calm seas and reefs.

When Jin Baijing arrived, sheds and refreshments had already been set up here.

"Duke Liujun!" Jin Baijing called Liu Mu's title.

"Datang wants Beisha City!" Liu Mu didn't raise his head, nor did he ask for a gift, but just poured a cup of tea for Jin Baijing, and then pushed him over with one hand.

Jin Baijing took a sip of the tea and shook his head gently: "I am old, and I am powerless. Besides, Silla is also powerless to fight Goguryeo. Years of war have made Silla's national strength unable to support a real war. war."

"Baisha City, what do you want?" Liu Mu asked.

Jin Baijing did not answer Liu Mu's question, but said, "There is another name here, the Island of Three Hans."

Liu Mu didn't speak, and quietly listened to Jin Baijing's talk.

Jin Baijing continued: "Mahan, Chenhan and Bianhan. As early as the Han Dynasty in the Central Plains, this place was called the Three Kingdoms of Haidong. After the Fuyu people invaded, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty in the Great Han Dynasty, the nine families of the Buyeo people established Baekje was annexed, and then Mahan was annexed. My Silla was developed from Jinhan, and Gaya was from Byeonhan, which is now a part of Silla.”

"You want the whole peninsula?" Willow asked at this moment.

Jin Baijing did not answer, but continued: "In fact, Goguryeo is composed of some Mohe people, some Buyeo people, some Sanhan people, and some people who fled from the Central Plains. They have nothing to do with the peninsula."

"Goguryeo is very good at expanding." Liu Mu said with a smile at this time.

Only then did Jin Baijing answer Liu Mu's question: "I don't want the entire peninsula. The north is bounded by the Dajiang River, and the entire Wujin Prefecture of Baekje in the south belongs to the Tang Dynasty. In this way, both the north and the south of the Tang Dynasty can garrison troops. It is difficult for Silla to disagree. , but in order to ensure the survival of Silla, half of Tsushima Island will be returned to Silla, and a piece of territory equivalent to Mujin Prefecture will be given to Wa Island."

"Washima, I can't do anything. I, Tang Dynasty, have no interest in fighting Washima. It's just a place of cooperation, where troops are stationed to ensure income, and the Japanese will not expand their ambitions."

Even if Liu Mu hoped that Silla would get involved in Wa Island, he absolutely couldn't agree to it at this time.

"So, give Silla a chance to expand?"

Liu Mu didn't answer, but just played with the tea set silently.

The more hesitant Liu Mu was, the more Jin Baijing felt that Datang might attack Goguryeo in the next few years.

Jin Baijing knows the situation in Yanzhou. The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun are no longer counted as frontiers. There are Khitan, Shiwei, Mohe, and Turkic people on the front line of Goguryeo. Once the Tang Dynasty eliminates the trouble of Jieli, it will definitely Start with Goguryeo.

In Jin Baijing's view, there was only one reason for Liumu to want Beisha City, and that was to suggest a frontline supply point.

Datang's sea transportation is already quite good. After owning Beisha City, it can advance both by land and sea.

After a full quarter of an hour, Liu Mu said: "I can give you a chance to expand, but it can't be Wa Island. I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, don't want to have constant battles among the small countries around the Tang Dynasty. The prince of Funan Kingdom is living outside. If you want to restore the country, you are willing to give up land equivalent to five times the land of Silla and ask the Tang Dynasty to send troops."

"Funan?"

Liu Mu gave Jin Baijing a detailed account of the 200-year historical changes in Funan and Chenla.

In the end, Liu Mu mentioned the most crucial sentence: "Actually, I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, was tempted. Because although most of Funan's land is mountainous, there is a plain area where rice is grown and harvested three times a year. Even if it is rent, There will also bring countless grains to Datang."

Jin Baijing's heart was moved, and he said silently: "Beisha City."

"In fact, I don't need Silla to send troops, I just need Silla to help me with four small things that are not difficult."

"You speak."

"The first thing is to compete with Goguryeo for the Wabei Sea fishing ground, forcing Goguryeo to send its ships in Dandong Port to this side continuously. The Tsushima Strait is not very safe, which will continue to consume its number of ships. Then the Japanese will borrow me. A mercenary landed at Wonsan Port and occupied a small area."

Jin Baijing nodded, the war in the east of the island would attract the attention of the Goguryeo people, and the west of the island would give Datang an opportunity to take advantage of it.

With the strength of the Tang army, as long as Beisha City is captured, it will definitely be able to hold it.

The premise is that the Koguryo water army in the west of Tiaodao Island will not be able to take care of Beisha City even if it only lasts for a month.

Jin Baijing thought he had figured it out. In fact, Liu Mu really wanted Beisha City, and he could attack it directly with artillery and warships. All of this was a conspiracy.
