Chapter 101: Treat everyone equally

…

From a distance, the island is green, and a corner of the palace is exposed in the trees.

The lush trees cover the yellow and green glazed tile roofs and vermilion courtyard walls.

This looming palace is the residence of the original star lord of Tamna Kingdom, and now the county guard yamen of Tamna County - Tamna Pastoral Palace.

Li Yan intuitively deduced that his location should not be far from the Jeju Pastoral Palace in later generations.

According to Kim Fu-che, during the heyday of Silla, the three grandson brothers of the fifteenth generation of the Go-B tribe crossed the sea to come to the court, and the king of Silla gave them the approval of the eldest son as the star lord, the second son as the prince, and the third son as the disciple.

The star lord and prince are both Tamna Tu, that is, the meaning of king and general.

Later, Goryeo continued the precedent of Silla, still calling the king of Tamna the lord of the stars, and at the same time, for the sake of the lord of the stars of Huairou, he was given the title of general of Unmo and other military attachΓ©s.

In the tenth year of Goryeo's reign, Goryeo reorganized the Tamna Kingdom into a county, but the title of the star lord as a prince was still preserved, and his status was hereditary.

However, this is also a formality.

Now, Goryeo has already "invited" all the star lords, princes, and disciples of the former Tamna Kingdom to Goryeo as guests.

In addition, Goryeo sent a county guard and a battalion of defenders, and the army of the former Tamna Kingdom, including the men of the Tamna Kingdom, were all moved to Goryeo.

The original idea of Goryeo Sujong was to relocate the Goryeo people to Jeju Island and complete the occupation of Jeju Island.

But Goryeo Sujong moved the men of Tamna to Goryeo, and he died.

After the death of Goryeo Sujong, he was succeeded by Goryeo Ruizong, also known as Wang Bao.

In the summer of the first year of Wang Bao's succession, there was a severe drought in Goryeo, and Wang Bao thought that this was a condemnation from heaven, and issued an edict ordering all hundred officials to seal the matter, and bluntly spoke out about the mistakes of the imperial court.

Most of these closures were aimed at Suzong's initiatives.

Among them, there is the entry of Natama into the territory, which was described by the hundred officials as a waste of money and labor - in fact, the real situation is that Jeju Island at this time was remote and backward, and the volcano on the island erupted once a few decades ago, almost exterminating the island's Tamna, so no one intended to go to Jeju Island.

At that time, Wang Bao had to continue one of Suzong's policies, that is, the Northern Expedition to the Jurchens.

Therefore, Wang Bao finally adopted the meaning of the hundred officials and temporarily threw the barren land of Jeju Island aside.

Kim Fu-che came to Jeju Island this time to inspect Jeju Island with Li Senior instead of Wang Bao, wanting to see if the economy of Jeju Island would improve after ten years of governance by Goryeo's "capable ministers", and then decide whether to continue the immigration plan set by Goryeo Sujong.

Coincidentally, the two had just arrived on Jeju Island on the front foot, and they hadn't even had time to send out the people who had notified the Tamna County Guard and the Tamna Commander to come to greet them, and Li Yan and others on the back foot also arrived, and then wiped them out along with their entourage.

……

Before Li Yan and his people arrived at the Mugong Palace, Shan Shiqi and Shi Bao took their men and horses and Li Senior to greet Li Yan, only Deng Fei and Deng Fei's people were not there.

There was still some distance from Li Yan, and Shan Shiqi laughed and said: "The bird defenders of that camp are already vulnerable, and I waited for them to attack them unprepared, so I slashed and killed dozens of them, and they all surrendered on their knees, so it's not fun!" ”

Shi Bao then said: "This battle is so smooth, it is beyond our imagination, if it weren't for a few soldiers who fell off their horses and injured themselves, our army would have had zero casualties in this battle." ”

Senior Li seized the opportunity to show himself: "They have been on this island for ten years, and they have long worn out their fighting spirit, and the king's heavenly soldiers are extremely brave, where do they dare to stop it!" ”

Li Yan said with a calm face: "Are you so sure that there are no other threats on this island?" We've only been on this island for less than a day! ”

As soon as Li Yan said this, the expressions of Shan Shiqi and Shi Bao were all frozen!

Seeing this, Senior Li cautiously said: "Except for the guards of this battalion and the officials in the pastoral palace, there should be no adult men on the island......

Li Yan said: "What if the women and children of Tamluo take up arms to resist our army? Hugh must forget, there are more than 10,000 of them, more than ten times the number of our army! ”

Senior Li said: "This ...... The villain heard that Wang Junshou and the defenders of this battalion have plagued the Tamna people over the years, and the Tamna people should not help the Tamna people......"

Li Yan glanced at Senior Li, then looked at Shan Shiqi and Shi Bao and said, "If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of just in case." ”

Senior Li immediately said: "Yes, yes, what the king said is very true!" ”

Shan Shiqi and Shi Bao said with shame on their faces: "Little brother knows that he is wrong! ”

Li Yan's voice softened a little, and said: "Thinking that you have merit in annihilating the defenders here, I will not punish you this time, all the merits and demerits will be offset, if there is a next time, I will not be spared!" ”

Shan Shiqi and Shi Bao hugged their fists at Li Yan and said in unison: "Yes!" Then he took his men and horses to guard the main road to guard against the Tamna.

After Shan Shiqi and Shi Bao led people away, Li Yan and the others went straight to the Mugong Palace.

Seeing Li Yan coming, Deng Fei stepped forward and said: "The officials here have all been caught by us and put in prison, and now they are guarded by a special person, and the defenders of that battalion have also been taken here by us to be guarded, and I have let people seal the valuables, and wait for my brother to send someone to investigate, in addition, I have let the county guard's house and lobby be cleaned up, my brother can rest first, or he can directly interrogate the county guards and officials here." ”

Li Yan said: "Brother has worked hard. Then Li Yan said to Lu Zhishen: "Master, you divide all the people and Deng Fei brothers, and take care of these people." ”

Lu Zhishen responded: "The Sprinkle family will personally handle this matter." ”

Li Yan nodded, and then said, "Go to the lobby." ”

When Deng Fei heard this, he personally led Li Yan to the lobby, and at the same time sent two clever people to send Chen Liqing and Master Li to the house.

As soon as he arrived at the lobby, Li Yan asked Deng Fei to bring the county guard up.

As a result, the county guard didn't know anything, and he didn't know as much as Li Senior and Jin Fuzhe, and he didn't know Chinese.

Later, through Senior Li's translation, Li Yan learned about the specific situation on Jeju Island from a few officials.

In general, the situation is similar to what Kim Fu Zhe and Li Gao said, there is only this battalion of Goryeo defenders on the island, and there are more than 10,000 Tamna people, the Tamna people are all women and children, the county guards and the Goryeo defenders all regard the Tamna people as an inferior nation, and often plague the Tamna people, plus the Goryeo people forcibly relocated all the Tamna men to Goryeo, which makes the Tamna people break down, so that the Tamna people and the Goryeo people are in trouble!

Wang Lun, who took someone to check the seizure this time, came back and reported: "Brother, there are less than 40,000 stone of grain, and there are a lot of gold and jewelry shells and gold and silver artifacts, I am afraid that there will be no less than 70,000 or 80,000 yuan." ”

Li Yan frowned and said, "Only so much food?" ”

Senior Li said: "This Tamluo people rely on fishing for a living, and they are not good at farming, and I am afraid that these tens of thousands of stone grain are still planted by Wang Junshou!" ”

Li Yan nodded slightly to Senior Li to show encouragement, and then looked at Wang Lun and said, "From now on, Tamna Island will be renamed Jeju Island, and Brother Wang Lun, you will be the Taishou of Jeju Island." ”

Wang Lun said loudly: "Subordinates receive orders!" ”

Li Yan said again: "After a while, you will bring some gifts to meet the respected people of the Tamna tribe, and tell them that we will open a warehouse to release grain, regardless of the old and the young, as long as it is the Tamna people, each person can get two stones of grain, and then tell them that we will try the county guards and the Goryeo defenders, so that they can have revenge and revenge, and in addition, tell them that we respect their beliefs, in short, you have to express our goodwill, tell them that as long as they are obedient, they are ordinary people under our rule, and we will treat them equally." ”
