Chapter 1958: King Huo's Provocation
Once these seeds arrived in Guanzhong, coupled with the description of the gold everywhere in the Americas, Fang Jun could almost conclude that the ensuing expeditions to the Americas would be like a carp crossing the river. While most of them are likely to fail and drown in the oceans, some will surely arrive in the Americas.
Predation is the nature of human beings.
Even Han Chinese, who have been taught by Confucian culture for hundreds of years, will have red eyes in the face of unbridled plunder.
"Did Master Hou ever know that the New World was full of gold and silver, and an ordinary river was covered with golden sand, and gold and silver could be mined in any mine? We have found a lot of gold and silver from that tribe, and there is even a dog's head gold weighing more than 20 catties! The land there is fertile and the rivers are dense, and the abundance is not much better than that of the Tang Dynasty! Although its folk customs are fierce, they don't know how to read culture and etiquette, and they are really barbarians who drink blood! ”
Along the way, Tian Yunlai described Fang Jun in detail what he saw and heard in the Americas.
Fang Jun sat in the cabin, drank tea, and said: "I have already brought the dog's head gold and dedicated it to Your Majesty, and the rest of the gold and silver are also quite a lot, but after all, it was the big guy who worked hard to get it, go back and discuss it, and divide it yourself, compared to those seeds, it is really not worth mentioning!" ”
Tian Yunlai hurriedly thanked him.
Fang Jun said again: "Your Majesty will definitely reward you this time, but maybe no one can realize what earth-shaking changes these seeds will bring, and what a huge feat, so the reward may not be too heavy, so you must be mentally prepared." ”
Tian Yunlai hurriedly said: "What did Master Hou say?" When we go to sea to explore, the first thing is not to be rewarded, otherwise even if we are crowned kings and marquis, we have to have a life to enjoy! What we do, one is the ideal in our hearts, we are willing to conquer the vast ocean, and the other is that we are moved by the scene described by the Hou Ye, and we are willing to lie down on this road with our own bodies! Others may not believe what kind of crops these seeds will grow in the future, but how can we not know what we have seen with our own eyes? As Hou Ye said, what kind of merit is to be able to make Datang no longer starving? Even though the reward is limited at the moment, our name will surely go down in history and be remembered by future generations! ”
This man is uneducated and goes smarter than most people.
No one can see the abundance of such barns at the moment, but sooner or later, these seeds will sprout and grow, and their deeds will be spread all over the world!
What can the Emperor reward them?
Even if it is a position of a prince, with their rootless pirate background, they can enjoy peace and stability?
Don't be silly......
Only when the world knows today's merits, and the rewards will naturally make up for it at that time, can this merit be as stable as Mount Tai.
*****
When the fleet arrived at the Weishui Wharf, Fang Jun immediately ordered a carriage to prepare a wagon, unload the seeds, and then escorted by a team of elite soldiers to Lishan Farm.
After placing the seeds and strictly ordering the servants of the middle house in the farm to take strict care of them, they did not allow the slightest loss, so they took Tian Yunlai and other disabled sailors and soldiers, let them sit in carriages, and he rode and led the sailors and soldiers to each other, and entered Chang'an City.
"Hey, isn't this the bald soldier under the command of Fang Butty? I can't see half of them at leisure, but there are so many people at once today, it's strange! ”
"Not to mention, it really looks like a first-class and first-class army in the world!"
"Isn't that nonsense? Fang and Ma leaned across the seven seas, beating those overseas countries crying dad and shouting mother, and even the queen of Silla had to take the initiative to Zen the throne, can it not be strong? ”
"Hey, look at the soldiers sitting in the carriage...... God, where did this come down from the battlefield? It's almost gone! ”
……
The prestige of the royal sailor in the entire territory of the Tang Dynasty, can be called the prestige, this not long after the establishment of the sailor, because of the word "royal", is destined to attract attention as if inlaid with a layer of gold edge, and since the formation of the army, invincible, invincible and strong record, it is even more relished by the government and the opposition.
In particular, the newly implemented "head shaving order" has attracted the attention of the world.
"The body is hairy, and the parents are received" is an ancient precept, but in the era when the doctrine of etiquette has not yet emerged, in fact, the requirements for this aspect are not as strict as in the future, but all men and women in the world have their hair, but the sailors and soldiers have shaved their heads because it is difficult to maintain hygienic conditions when they go to sea all year round, which is extremely dazzling and unusual......
However, because the location of the sailor division is in Huating Town, Jiangnan, which is too far away from Guanzhong, very few people and officials can see a few sailor soldiers throughout the year, so at this moment, seeing so many sailor soldiers waiting to enter Chang'an City through the streets and alleys, the people are naturally curious.
Could it be that he won the battle again and entered the palace to be rewarded?
Fang Jun first placed Tian Yunlai and other soldiers in the yamen of the military department, and he hurriedly rode to the palace.
Inside the yamen, a group of officials and officials looked at these sailor soldiers who were placed in the duty rooms on both sides to rest, and gasped when they saw the wounds left by their bodies because of the struggle against the wind and waves. Although most of the soldiers are civilian officials, they are in charge of the logistics of the Tang Army, the allocation of soldiers, the selection of generals, post-war pensions and other affairs.
In particular, it can be seen that the injuries on the bodies of these soldiers are not fatal, but the bones of the body that have almost been boiled dry are indeed strange......
Guo Fushan is the right attendant of the Ministry of War, there is no chief officer in the Ministry of War at the moment, the position of Shangshu is vacant, he is the second person except Fang Jun, he is not as kind as this person, there is no consciousness above all the people under one person, he is absolutely unwilling to put on a show of qualifications, and everyone laughs when he sees him, and his popularity is excellent.
At this time, the yamen was idle, but it was not time to go to duty, and Fang Jun went thousands of miles to the south of the Yangtze River to bring these soldiers back and settle them here, there must be something important, in the entire yamen, who dares to go first?
Guo Fushan held a big teacup, paced in front of Tian Yunlai, and said with a kind smile: "This official is the right attendant of the military department, I don't know how to call it?" ”
When Tian Yunlai heard this, the head of the military department quickly stood up slowly, and replied respectfully: "The last general is the captain of the Royal Naval Division, Tian Yunlai." ”
"Hehe, don't be restrained, sit down quickly, the official is just chatting casually...... Captain Tian doesn't seem to be very old, and he was born in the army? Guo Fushan sat casually in front of Tian Yunlai and asked with a smile.
In the army of the world, only Zuo Tunwei is different from the royal sailors, but pursues a conscription system, not the government soldier system of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, the soldiers of Zuo Tunwei and the Royal Sailors are either the elites recruited from the soldiers of the government, or they are simply the private soldiers of the major families, and they are paid a lot of money, but they are also more powerful.
However, at present, this recruitment system cannot be fully applied to the entire army......
When Tian Yunlai heard this, he sat down in a proper manner, was silent for a while, and said: "No, the last general was originally a farmer, but later the countryside suffered a natural disaster and became a homeless person, and his family starved to death, so he had to live in the East China Sea and became a pirate...... Later, he was recruited by the Hou Ye, and was entrusted with an important task, and was ordered to lead a fleet across the ocean to explore the New World......"
In this highest-ranking military yamen in the empire, the experience of being a pirate made him feel inferior.
Tian Yunlai didn't care, he was just a low-level captain, whether he was born in a peasant family or a family, even if he was a bandit or pirate, what did it matter? He was just idle and bored, and asked Fang Jun why he placed these people here, but he ran to the palace.
However, before he could say something to show his generosity, someone behind him said: "It's just a sinner-guilty bandit, who can actually steal from the high seat of the Yamen of the Ministry of War?" Does Fang Shilang still have some rules, and can he treat this military department yamen as a market for hiding dirt and dirt? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room changed color!
Guo Fushan had a cold face, stood up, and turned his head to look at the young man who was sitting on the edge of the bed with Erlang's legs crossed......
And Tian Yunlai's subordinates got up one after another, glaring angrily.
This young man has a brocade robe and jade belt, a luxurious body, especially an extraordinary bearing, but his appearance is slightly worse, his body is thin and weak, his face is pale, his eyes are long and his lips are thin, and his face is mean.
A sailor soldier shouted: "Let go of your mother's fart!" We were ordered to sail far away, and we drifted on the sea for hundreds of days and nights, and encountered countless storms and sinister waves, all of which were led by the captain to escape from death, and only then did we create a great feat, how can you be so humiliated? ”
The young man looked sarcastic, dusted off his cowhide boots, and said disdainfully: "A group of pirates and robbers, despicable things like pigs and dogs!" Are you extinct with Fang Jun, or have you expanded your land for thousands of miles, but you have gone to sea and turned around, let alone any merits? Running in front of grandpa to blow the atmosphere, it's really shameless! ”
The sailors and soldiers glared at each other angrily.
The final robe in the army, the friendship between life and death, how can the chief officer of his own family be humiliated like this?
Guo Fushan looked at this young man, his eyes were gloomy, and he sighed: "His Royal Highness King Huo, it's better not to cause trouble for yourself......
