Neon Clothes and Iron Clothes

Chapter 582 The Samurai's Destiny

"I just want the master to come back sooner!" Fujiwara Bubi smiled and said, "As the saying goes, if you can't break it, you can't stand it. In Haidong's situation, it's better to break it than to continue like this stalemate!"

"Fujiwara is no match, you are so bold!" Cao Wenzong was surprised and angry: "Have you forgotten your identity? If it weren't for the Lord's kindness, you might still be practicing hard in some monastery in Chang'an now? today?"

"Cao Lang-jun, it is precisely because I have not forgotten my identity that I said these words!" Fujiwara Bubi said: "And this is not my own thought, Brother He Ba, Brother Yuan, Brother Zhang, Brother Shen, they all think so too! Whether it’s from the Wa Kingdom or from the Xiongjin Governor’s Mansion, we all hope that the Lord will come back one day soon and lead us to show our strength and make the sea calm!”

At this point, Fujiwara Bubi took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Cao Wenzong. In the letter, he made a generous statement, asking Wang Wenzuo to remember his soldiers and the people of Haidong, and to return as soon as possible. At the end of the letter, there are many Ten signatures and inscriptions with different handwritings are all important generals who stayed in the Wa Kingdom and Xiongjin Governor's Mansion. There are Tang people, Baekje people, Goguryeo people, and Wa people. , Yuan Aolie and others signed.

"Heba, even you—"

"I can't help it!" He Bayong spread his hands, his face full of grievances: "I still say that this is Sanlang's foundation, and the throne is Sanlang's flesh and blood, everyone tied their heads to their belts Working hard, there must be an explanation in the end, right? He is the only one who can give us an explanation, and we don’t recognize the others! He went to Jiannan Road to fight desperately with the Tubo people. What if something bad happens, what should we do?" Here, he smiled: "Old Cao, why don't you leave a name behind?"

"Me?" Cao Wenzong snorted coldly: "Forget it, I'm not as courageous as you!"

"Since Mr. Cao Lang doesn't want to leave his name, forget it!" Fujiwara Bubi put away the letter paper, and put it in his arms carefully: "Whether you leave your name or not, we are all like-minded companions, so don't be arrogant." Outer heart!"

The brand new straw mat made the soles of his feet a little itchy. Cao Wenzong yawned, and after urinating the last drop of urine in the urinal, he fastened his belt, regardless of the news brought by Fujiwara Bubi and He Bayong. What a displeasure, the hospitality they gave themselves was impeccable, new room, new sheets, new quilts, new straw mats, everything new, have to admit a lot of work has been done in their absence , Nambatsu is like a newborn baby, growing up every day. When I left, it was still a large wilderness, and now it is a thriving city.

Thinking of this, the original anger gradually disappeared from Cao Wenzong's heart. No matter how bold and reckless these guys were, they still completed their work well, and their actions were a bit reckless, but this further reflected their respect for True loyalty to a common cause.Yes, Cao Wenzong himself was a part of it and could benefit from it, so no matter what he said during the day, deep down he still hoped that they would succeed.

After a while, Cao Wenzong found that he was too excited to fall asleep. He stood up and walked to the window. Judging from the sky outside the window, it should be past midnight.He simply wiped his face with the water in the wooden basin outside, and walked to the corridor outside, the night air made his bare skin a bit cool.Damn it, the job assigned to me by the Lord is to quell the rebellion in the Wa Kingdom, and then go to trouble the Silla people, there is no need for me to cause trouble.Thinking of this, Cao Wenzong felt that his heart had calmed down again. He returned to the bed and soon snored evenly.

In the early morning of the next day, when Cao Wenzong woke up, he felt full of energy all over his body, and his original troubles and exhaustion were swept away. After meeting again with Fujiwara Bubi and He Bayong, the two showed great confidence in putting down the rebellion .

"These rebellions are not a problem!" He Bayong said with a smile: "Old Cao, you have stayed here too short, and you don't know the local people well. Let's put it this way! Rebellions are actually very common here. , just like rain, it will come every once in a while. So it’s not difficult to solve, believe me, you don’t need to do it yourself, even the bear can solve everything!”

"How could this happen?" Cao Wenzong asked doubtfully, "Is it because the locals are rebellious or the officials are too greedy?"

"It should be said to be both!" He Bayong glanced at Fujiwara Bubi: "Am I right? Brother Fujiwara?"

"Although I really don't want to admit it, it's true!" Fujiwara Bubi smiled and said, "Let's put it this way! Compared with the officials of the Tang Dynasty, the officials of our country who are officials in the neighboring countries are much more greedy. The people in remote neighboring countries are also stubborn, so I really can't say which one is the real reason for so many rebellions!"

Although every pore of Heba Yong and Fujiwara Bubi is full of the prejudice of the exploiting class against the working people of the Japanese country at that time, their evaluation of the warriors who were officials in the remote neighboring country at that time is still relatively close to the truth, the state of the Tang Dynasty What kind of virtues are county officials?The reason is very simple. In the extremely rough political structure established by Wang Wenzuo, almost all Japanese officials had no salary.

Of course, these warriors would never let themselves go hungry, and they would naturally have a way to fill their pockets.And the residents of remote neighboring countries are not good stubble, limited by the level of productivity at that time, there are no atomic small peasant families on the East Asian continent in Japan, but a large number of villages and tribes, and the central government is also unable to implement "knife hunting orders" A type of decree is used to disarm ordinary people, so various rebellions and civil uprisings are the norm.It's just that these rebellions did not have a unified banner and no lofty political goals. They failed time and time again under the suppression of the powerful conscript army sent by the Wang regime centered on Kinki, with samurai as the backbone.

In the eyes of Hebayong and Fujiwara, this kind of rebellion is not necessarily a bad thing. Anyway, as a regime where foreign military conquerors occupy the core of the upper echelon, they are very clear that their own rule is based on their own powerful force and cooperation with the local samurai group. Needless to say about the former, the latter is based on the benefits to these warriors.And every time the rebellion is successfully suppressed, it will become a feast for the Japanese samurai group-villages, shrines, tribes, and old forces participating in the rebellion will be deprived of land and property, and a considerable part of it will be distributed to those who have made meritorious service.And if the person who goes to suppress fails, it can just happen to be removed from the samurai group, so as to achieve the goal of survival of the fittest.

Take Yuan Aolie's lecture to his subordinates as evidence: As warriors, you have neither noble blood nor profound knowledge.The only things you can rely on are the bows and arrows in your hands and the armor on your body. If you can’t defeat the enemy on the battlefield, then you have no value in existence. Either you win and your family name will continue, or you will die and your family name will be cut off. This is you fate.For this kind of cruel and somewhat paranoid order, the Japanese warriors felt very happy.

In fact, in nearly all battles with rebels, the samurai suppressors were outnumbered, and most of the time the rebels outnumbered the suppressors by double, triple, or more.In field battles, almost all the samurai took the initiative to attack. Even if they were finally defeated and desperate, the samurai would either rush into the enemy's line and die in battle, or commit suicide.The reason is that most of the samurai have achieved their social and economic status with great difficulty. They have not forgotten their own situation before Wang Wenzuo came to Japan. Compared with being deprived of their status because of cowardice, they would rather use One's own life is exchanged for a good reputation, leaving a chance for future generations to make a comeback.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that Heba Yong and Fujiwara are no more confident in dealing with the plethora of local rebellions-the mining of gold, silver and copper mines and the increasingly prosperous maritime trade not only filled the treasury of the Wang regime, but also provided a The sea power enough to dominate the Seto Inland Sea, and the samurai group organized using the advanced weapons and tactics of the East Asian continent have proved their loyalty and strength. The barbarians in the vast wilderness of Northeast Asia recruited a large number of mercenaries.

This increasingly plump raptor is already flapping its wings and trying to take off, and the only thing that can hinder it is the iron chain tied around its neck. As long as the iron chain is broken, it can soar into the sky and go straight to the sky.

"According to what you said, then my trip was in vain!" After hearing what Fujiwara Bubi and He Bayong said, Cao Wenzong sighed in disappointment: "These 1000 people are all seven-foot-tall men. It took so much effort!"

"How could it be!" Fujiwara Bubi smiled and said, "These 1000 people have greatly increased our prestige. When the news spreads, many rebels hiding in the dark will definitely not dare to act rashly. Yuan Aolie can also Come back sooner!"

"Is the battle on Yuan Aolie's side tense?" Cao Wenzong asked.

"It's hard to say I'm nervous!" He Bayong said with a smile: "In my opinion, his bones are itching, and he just wants to exercise his muscles and bones. Rebellion among the Ainu people is a common occurrence. To the east, fight until the end of the land. Therefore, Fujiwara Bubi named him the Great General Conquering the Barbarians in the name of the Great King, and went to conquer the Ainu people!"

"Is this possible?" Cao Wenzong frowned: "Isn't it good to start provocatively while the Lord is not here?"

He Bayong and Fujiwara Bubi both laughed, which made Cao Wenzong very uncomfortable. Usually this kind of smile appears on the faces of elders who face ignorant teenagers.Obviously, the two of them didn't think there was anything wrong with Yuan Aolie's actions. It could even be said that Yuan Aolie's actions were supported by the two of them.

"Old Cao, you don't know, the farther to the east of this country, the flatter and fertile the land is, which is suitable for reclamation and farming. It is said that there are gold mines. Wouldn't it be cheaper to leave such a good place for those Ainu people? Everyone!"

"Land? Gold mine?" Cao Wenzong looked at He Bayong in surprise, his face looked so strange: "He Ba, is it not enough for you to have so many farms? Do you want more?"

"Ahem!" He Bayong coughed a little embarrassedly: "Of course I have enough, but you have to think about future generations, right? Lao Cao, you also have children, so you can't let them have nothing to eat, right?"

Cao Wenzong was speechless, and after a while he shook his head: "Of course I have a child, but if you do this, be careful to burst the child's stomach!" Then he stood up and rushed out the door go.

"Old Cao, old Cao!" He Bayong called twice, but he didn't stop Cao Wenzong. He looked outside worriedly, and shook his head at Fujiwara Bubi: "This guy, why is he still such an idiot, hey, Will he talk nonsense about things here with Saburo, that will be troublesome!"

"Brother He Ba, you don't have to worry, who is the master? How can you listen and believe?" Fujiwara Bubi said with a smile: "No matter what Cao Wenzong said, the master will at least give us a chance to speak!"

"That's true!" He Bayong nodded: "We did this not for ourselves, but for everyone, and for Saburo himself. Saburo will never blame us!"

"In fact, we also followed the master's strategy!" Fujiwara Bubi said: "Before the master left, he made an alliance with all the warriors to kill the white horse. If the Wang family is not the king, the world will attack him together; if there is no one who ascends the city and beheads the army, Those who make meritorious deeds will be condemned by the whole world! Isn’t that what we did? We also opened gold mines and opened up trade, which is also supported by the Lord. The Four Heavenly Kings Temple, the Giant Buddha Statue, and the sugar trade are all It was the Lord who ordered it at the beginning. Over the past few years, we have not only provided financial support to the Xiongjin Governor's Mansion, but also filled the treasury more and more. These achievements are obvious to all! Based on these alone, the Lord will never blame us!"

Listening to Fujiwara Bubi's list, He Bayong's originally tightly locked brows gradually loosened, and his lips slightly turned up, showing a smile: "Shen Faseng is in Baekje, and Cui Hongdu is with Saburo. In terms of meritorious service, the two of them are inferior to each other." I!"

"The most important thing is your loyalty to the lord!" Fujiwara Bubi said, "If the tiger falls into the flat river and the fish swims in the shallow water, the lord will live in Jiannan forever. Is it a long-term plan?"

"That's right!" He Bayong swung his fist violently: "If you want to be punished by Saburo, I will let him come back sooner!"
