Pirates in Iwami and other countries are not a trivial matter for the Wa Kingdom.

Xue Huzi founded the country in Iwami Omori, and the country name was Korea, which was taken from Sanhan, and he called himself the king of Han.

Korea, which was founded by pirates, had roughly the entire territory of Iwami, Izumo, Oki, and Anki in the Wa Kingdom, as well as a part of the lands of Nagato, Zhoubo, Bingo, Hakugi, and Bichu, with tens of thousands of troops under its jurisdiction.

However, Xue Huzi himself only controlled the entire territory of Iwami, Izumo, and Oki, and a part of the land of An Yun and Boqi, and the rest were divided by him to other pirates with a certain strength.

It is conceivable how much this news will shock the Wa Kingdom, which is to challenge the rule of the entire Wa Kingdom, and it is strange that the Wa Kingdom can endure it.

So at this time, even if the news of the Ezo people going south to Mutsu came, the Wa Kingdom would not have time to deal with it, and if they didn't drive the Silla pirates away, they might even threaten Heiankyo.

At this time, Emperor Daigo could only trust Fujiwara Tokihei and appointed him as the general of the expedition to the west, responsible for sending troops to quell the Hankou rebellion.

This is good news for the Fujiwara clan, Sugawara Michizane sent an envoy to the Tang Dynasty, not in the country, and with this identity as a general of the expedition to the west, he can further expand the power of the Fujiwara clan.

Fujiwara Tokihei directly ordered the transfer of large armies from all over the country, and gathered 50,000 troops, known as the 100,000 Heavenly Army, to defeat the so-called Korea established by pirates.

These 50,000 troops can be said to have basically emptied the standing armies of all the commanding countries except for the eastern and northeastern regions.

But if you sit idly by, it is impossible, and in this battle, the Japanese country can be regarded as desperate.

However, the Ezo people were still only active in Mutsu and did not affect other reido countries, so they could not have much impact on the Japanese country.

It is conceivable that if Fujiwara Tokihei had failed to command the army this time, the seriousness of the matter would have been great, and the entire Wa Kingdom might have collapsed.

While the Wa Kingdom was in the shadow of war, the Silla territory in the north was also turbulent.

There is no doubt that the establishment of the Pyongyang Governorate and the Tamna Governorate by the Tang Dynasty plunged the entire Silla into a panic.

Just when the Tang Dynasty set up the Liangdu Governorate, Zhen Xuan, who occupied Wuzhou (i.e., Wuzhen Prefecture), captured Quanzhou (i.e., Wanshan Prefecture) a few months earlier.

After seeing that the Tang Dynasty returned to Silla, he took Wuju as the capital, established Later Baekje, proclaimed himself the king of Later Baekje, appointed officials, and sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty with a large number of gifts in the hope of seeking the canonization of the Tang Dynasty.

Zhen Xuan's title to the throne undoubtedly poured a barrel of hot oil on the already chaotic Silla, and the fire burned even brighter.

In the northern part of Silla, the Northern Plains thief commander Liang Ji attacked the Gong descendants who occupied Songak, and finally Liang Ji was defeated and fled, and the Gong descendants took the opportunity to annex many of Liang Ji's territory, and suddenly became the strongest among the various forces of Silla.

However, in the annexation of Liang Ji and other powerful territories, the troops of the Gong descendants clashed with the Pyongyang Governorate, and as a result, the 8,000 Gong troops were killed by the 2,000 Tang troops.

It is heartening that the newly established Pyongyang Governorate has achieved such a great victory.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yang Shihou commanded his army to sweep through many towns in northern Hanzhou, and controlled nearly half of Hanzhou in just one month.

The expansion of the Pyongyang Governor's Mansion undoubtedly made the local tycoons in northern Silla such as the Gong Descendants very afraid, not to mention that the Tang army in the Pyongyang Governorate was less than 10,000 people, but it was well equipped and had strong combat power, and it was impossible to defeat it without several times the number of troops.

As for the Silla royal family, it was also beyond the reach of the whip at this time, because the Pyongyang Governorate was far to the north, and the territory controlled by the Silla royal family was still separated from the area controlled by the Bow and other rebels.

Fortunately, the Tang army in the Pyongyang Governorate had no intention of continuing to expand, but stopped moving south after garrisoning troops in Haeju and Hwangju.

This also made the bow descendant breathe a sigh of relief, he didn't expect the Tang army to be so powerful, and what was even more infuriating was that the Tang people also stopped supporting him, and the weapons were no longer sold, which was not a good sign.

To be precise, after the establishment of the Pyongyang Governorate, Li Ye ordered the three imperial merchants and the Jinyi Guard to strictly prohibit the sale of weapons to Silla, and at the same time sent sailors to crack down on pirates in the waters between Tamna, Pyongyang, and Tengju.

Li Ye has already regarded this place as the inland sea of Datang, and naturally no one is allowed to threaten Datang's overseas trade.

The return of the Tang Dynasty to Silla is a foregone conclusion, and now the Tang Dynasty is strong, while Silla is in chaos, like the Three Kingdoms era hundreds of years ago.

At this time, no matter which force received the support of the Tang Dynasty, it was very likely to replicate the path of the rise of Silla more than two hundred years ago.

。。。。。。

There is no news about what happened to Wa and Silla to Luoyang, and even if it does, it is impossible to reach the ears of Sugawara Michizane and others, who are still waiting for the results of the investigation on the Datang side.

At the beginning, many people in the mission were a little impatient, but after seeing the prosperity of Luoyang, many members of the mission did not want to leave, and even wanted to study in the more prosperous Chang'an.

For these, Sugawara Michizane could not avoid it, so he could only find a way to return to the Wa Kingdom as soon as possible, he was worried that the layout of the Tang Dynasty in Silla was likely to affect the Wa Kingdom, and the matter of piracy had not been resolved.

While the crowd was waiting, Quy Nhon Sho finally sent someone to deliver a message to them.

"Returning to the university, it is said that the results of the investigation have come out?" As soon as Sugawara Michizane arrived at Hongroji Temple, he couldn't wait to ask.

"Sugawara is not in a hurry, the results of the investigation are indeed out." Quy Nhon Shao nodded, "According to the joint investigation of my Tang Jinyi Guard, the Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple, it was found that the so-called support for the Silla pirates is purely false. ”

"How is that possible? We found a large number of Datang's weapons in the seizure. Sugawara Michizan really didn't believe it.

"Sugawara is waiting for the official to finish." Quy Nhon Shao was a little displeased, but he still explained the set of rhetoric he had compiled before to Sugawara Michizane, "Those weapons were not produced by my official workshop in the Tang Dynasty, but by Yang Xingmi, who had previously seized Huainan.

It is true that someone in the middle sold these weapons to the Silla people, but it is not known whether they were Silla pirates.

Now that the chaos in Huainan has been calmed down, I don't think there will be any follow-up happens. ”

After all, Sugawara Michizane had seen it with his own eyes, and he might not have known it at the time, but when he arrived in Luoyang, he also inquired about what was going on, so when he heard Quy Nhon Shao's introduction, it seemed that there was no problem.

But Sugawara Michizane is not a fool, and he must have some ability to do the position of the right minister of the Japanese country.

In his opinion, Quy Ren Shao's words always mean to throw the blame, but Yang Xingmi is dead, and there is no proof of this death.

"Then dare to ask what happened to the Tang Army found in Tsushima and Sado?" Sugawara Michizane asked again.

"I don't know about Sado, but the sailor has a dock in Tsushima, which he took from the pirates. The sailor stayed there to protect the merchant ships of my Tang Dynasty to Silla.

In fact, there is a proposal here, in view of the rampant Silla pirates, the Tang Dynasty is willing to encircle and suppress the Silla pirates together with the Japanese state, I wonder what Sugawara Sho thinks of this proposal? ”

Sugawara Daozhen frowned slightly, he didn't understand whether what the Tang Honglu Temple Qing said in front of him was true, he always felt that Datang had other plans.
