The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1806 Self-sufficiency, supporting war with war

"Pass it a hundred miles, let the news slowly walk on the road. Anyway, we are not in a hurry. General Cheng and His Royal Highness King Wu are in Jincheng on the Xiongjin side. The entire Silla is under the control of Xiongjin. Don't worry, it's not too far from Jincheng to Wa Kingdom, just let the navy replenish it. I think the navy will not be too short of food and grass now, the whole Kyushu Island is not small, and we don't have to stay It means Kyushu Island." Xuan Shijing said.

To support the war with war, the army is outside, if you want to eat and not go hungry, you can only do this, just like what the Japanese people did on the land of the Central Plains during the war of aggression against China. Don's army is so benevolent that they are like gods, angels, and Buddhas.

As Xuan Shijing said, Liu Renyuan and Liu Rengui's two naval teams are living well on Kyushu Island. What advantage, maybe there was an advantage before, but after Liu Rengui took down the entire Dazaifu, the Datang Navy gained a firm foothold on Kyushu Island, and their advantage was gone.

Today's Wa country is poor, how can it be compared with the rich and oily Tang Dynasty, isn't the war fought for money?In addition to money, it is the people in the army. Datang is not comparable to Japan in terms of money or people. Therefore, the two navy teams took Dazaifu as their base and swept Kyushu Island directly, taking Kyushu Island into their pockets. , and then levied the army's supplies on Kyushu Island.

Even the Wa Kingdom itself didn't come to collect taxes in this area, so it's all cheaper for the Datang Navy.

Before the court's definite decree has come down, the navy will not go too far, at least it will not let the common people on Kyushu Island starve to death. As for the Japanese prisoners of war, they will all go to reclaim wasteland and pull Going to farm, who knows how long the Datang navy will be stationed here, over time, self-sufficiency is the long-term solution.

Transporting the supplies of the army from Jincheng or Zhanluo Island to this side is okay for a short time, but it will be too troublesome if the time is long. The only consumption on the road is a large amount of food and grass.

But now the people on Kyushu Island see that although Tang Jun has confiscated food and grass from them, he has no intention of starving them to death, so these people are still very stable now, and seeing Tang Jun letting prisoners of war farm and reclaim wasteland, they are heartbroken. It is also a little bit more reassuring. Although there are family members of these people among the prisoners of war, at least their lives have not been harvested by the Tang army, and what they do is just farming.

All of this is still within their acceptable range.

Liu Rengui is a veteran in the battlefield, he has a good idea of ​​how to deal with the land he won, and how to manage it.

The navy of the Tang army is on Kyushu Island, and the large force is still stationed in Dazaifu. While preparing food and supplies, while training soldiers, they are always sharpening their knives under the eyes of Emperor Qiming, just to let her see it and make the whole Japanese country afraid .

If they weren't afraid, how could they give it to Tang if he wanted something?

Liu Rengui and Liu Renyuan joined forces, and now the biggest thing they do all day is to frighten the Wa Kingdom and the Qi Ming Emperor.

Whether you're honest or not, I'm sharpening knives here.

"That's true, but a temporary rest is also a good thing for our sailors." Li Chengqian said: "After all, the battle has been fought for so long, and it is time to rest. This is our bargaining chip, our advantage."

"That's right, on the Wa side, anyway, the road has already been given to them, so it's up to them to choose how to go." Xuan Shijing said.

Up to now, under this situation, Datang is determined to win the silver mines in Shimane Prefecture. Even if the Wa Kingdom disagrees, it cannot stop the pace of the Datang Navy.

In fact, wanting a county and returning the entire island to them, Xuan Shijing also thought about the future generations. Doesn’t Yingjiang have a military station in the island country?
Why not use this trick for Datang?Datang does not want an island in the country of Wa, but a county. That county is very close to Jincheng, and it can be used as a military base for the Tang Dynasty in the country of Wa. Anyway, after the silver mine is obtained, it will definitely be mined, and the army will be stationed there. It is also good for Datang.

There is really no need for Datang to ask for such a piece of land between the Asian plate and the Pacific plate. If it really belongs to Datang, the imperial court will wait to pay for disaster relief in the future.

There are earthquakes every day. Although most of them are small earthquakes that cannot be felt, there are also major earthquakes. Do you want the court to lose money?
Datang doesn't want money-losing stuff, just mines.

Xuan Shijing didn't have such a grand plan. He said that the plan would be hundreds of years later, or thousands of years later.

"The matter of the Japanese silver mine was brought up several years ago, but I didn't expect it to be realized so soon." Li Chengqian sighed.

"The hearts of the people are not enough to swallow the elephant, so it's not their own death. If they don't take the initiative to provoke Datang, he doesn't know how long he will have to wait and what method he will use if he wants to take down this mine. It's all right now. It's simple and clear." Xuan Shijing laughed.

Qi Minghuang, an old woman, is getting bigger and bigger as she gets older, and she is also greedy for enjoyment. For such a person, as soon as Silla offers some benefits, she will be able to take the bait and expand to the point where she wants to take benefits from Datang. , Now it's all right, let's play with myself.

That's why Xuan Shijing secretly suggested to Li Chengqian that the people from Baiqisi could do something in Namba, that is, to help restore Emperor Qiming.

Big things can't be done, but small things can still be done, for example, in the struggle between Emperor Qiming and the eldest brother prince, Baiqisi can be a shit-stirring stick, trying hard to pit the eldest brother prince.

After so many years of observation, I got to know Emperor Qi Ming, and now I am able to target this old woman with ease.

Xuan Shijing will not admit that he is scheming or black-bellied, which are the basic operations of political struggles between countries.

"Then what do you think is the chance that their Emperor Qi Ming will agree to this matter?" Li Chengqian asked.

Xuan Shijing shook his head, I don't know: "Maybe, it's [-]-[-], or, Emperor Qiming is afraid of fighting with Datang from the bottom of his heart, cutting off a piece of meat, hurting for several years, and calm down quickly, or, that is We really pushed them to a certain point, but forced out their backbone, and we want to continue fighting with Datang."
