Chapter 337: Self-inflicted iniquity, do not live

Du Dalei's blood was boiling, and he said with all his fists: "Boss, this task belongs to me!" In a few years, when our fleet has a certain size and the guards are mature, I will definitely lead the fleet to storm Tokyo, and there will be a Tokyo Massacre to destroy Little Japan! ”

Zhao Zi was rejoiced: "You are talking nonsense again, now the capital of Japan is not Tokyo at all." ”

Du Dalei was surprised: "Now the capital of Japan is not Tokyo? Where's that? ”

Zhao Zizhong explained: "Japan is now in the Heian period, and the capital is Heiankyo, which later became Kyoto. It's not far from Osaka. ”

Du Dalei asked, "Boss, what is it in the peace period?" ”

"The Heian period in Japan began when Emperor Kanmu moved his capital to Kyoto in 794 (784) and ended with the establishment of the Kamakura shogunate in 1192.

At the end of the Nara Dynasty, the contradictions between the imperial court and the aristocratic forces intensified. In order to weaken the power of powerful nobles and monks, Emperor Kanmu decided to move the capital from Heijokyo to Nagaoka in Yamashiro Province in 784, and in the 12th year of Enryaku, Prince Hayara's resentful spirit, he planned to build a new capital in present-day Kyoto City, named Heiankyo, hoping to obtain peace, auspiciousness, tranquility, and peace.

Since Emperor Kanmu moved the capital on October 25, 794, before the new capital was completed, historians often regard 794 as the beginning of the Heian Dynasty (some regard the decision to move the capital in 784 as the beginning of the Heian Dynasty). ”

Du Dalei opened his mouth wide: "So that's the case!" Kyoto must be bustling now, right? ”

Zhao continued, "Kyoto is located in the central and western part of Japan's main island of Honshu, in the northern part of the Kyoto Basin, only 5 kilometers east of Lake Biwa, Japan's largest lake, surrounded by the Tamba Mountains, the Hira Mountains and the Kibune Mountains on the east, west and north.

The Takaya River and the Kamo River converge in the city to form the Kamogawa River, which flows south into the Kamogawa River, and finally merge with the Yodo River, which flows into Osaka Bay.

Due to its location in the basin, Kyoto's climate is somewhat inland, and the temperature difference between the four seasons is not large, with an average temperature of 14°C~15°C throughout the year. It is a world-famous tourist attraction with a pleasant climate.

Heian Kyo, the capital city of Japan at the end of the 8th century and from the 9th century onwards, imitated the capital cities of Chang'an and Luoyang in the Tang Dynasty of China in terms of shape and layout, especially the imitation of Chang'an Castle. In terms of overall planning and layout, it is modeled on the east-west symmetrical layout of Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty at that time, and the modulus size of Fang City is similar to that of Luoyang, the eastern capital of the Tang Dynasty.

The central axis of Suzaku Avenue is divided into two parts, Zuojing and Youjing (Zuojing on the east side and Youjing on the west side), according to the Suzaku Street in Chang'an, Heiankyo is called Zuojing and Youjing (the west side is Ukyo).

Located in the center of the northern part of the capital, the palace of Heiankyo is equivalent to the combination of the palace city and the imperial city of Chang'an Castle in the Tang Dynasty, while the inner wrap and the main hall of the palace are equivalent to the palace city (Taiji Palace) and Taiji Hall in Chang'an.

Outside of the Imperial Castle was the capital city, where ordinary officials and commoners lived. The city covers an area of about 20 square kilometers, and the streets are vertical and horizontal, symmetrically intersecting, and it is a beautiful city in the form of a chessboard. Because the area where Ukyo was located was swampy, it was gradually deserted, and the main development of the city was concentrated in Sakyo. The aristocratic housing area was densely concentrated in the northern part of Sakyo, and the poor began to live along the Kamogawa River, which was beyond the eastern limit of Heian East, triggering a trend of eastward expansion. During the period of the Imperial Palace, many temples and palaces were built around the Kamogawa River and the Higashi-Shirakawa River, which flows through the east side of Sakyo Daiji-do, and many temples and palaces were built to make Tokyo more prosperous, so the Japanese people always like to call Kyoto 'Luoyang' and 'Los Angeles'.

Kyoto became the capital of Japan in the 8th century until the mid-19th century, when the capital moved to Tokyo. During this period of about 1,200 years, Kyoto flourished as the political, economic, and cultural center of Japan. As a result, there are many temples and shrines that took time to build, and 17 historical sites, including Kiyomizudera Temple and Nijo Castle, have been designated as World Heritage Sites. ”

Du Dalei asked curiously: "Boss, how do you know so much about things in Japan?" Have you studied it specifically? ”

Zhao Zi nodded emphatically: "Yes, I have studied it, when I served in the army, the Japanese right-wing forces were extremely dishonest, and many of our comrades-in-arms were very angry. So we've all taken a closer look at the history of Japan. ”

Du Dalei saw that hundreds of people had gathered at the entrance of the village, and the guards were maintaining order, so he hurriedly said: "Boss, when you have time, you can tell me about the history of Japan." Now that I'm taking the villagers to the beach, let's arrange for them to get on the boat. If you delay the time, you will not be able to set sail for Taiwan today. ”

Zhao Zi nodded emphatically and said, "You go, I'll watch here." Let's act as soon as possible. ”

Du Dalei greeted, and the three boys obediently followed him and walked towards the entrance of the village.

Everyone was busy until noon, and arranged for more than 400 people who were willing to leave immediately onto five merchant ships.

Zhao Zizhong sent three warships to escort the convoy and put Guo Jintao in charge of the transportation operation.

He instructed Guo Jintao: "Old Guo, when you arrive at the mouth of the Tamsui River, immediately tell Zheng Debao that he should treat these villagers with kindness and power, not too harsh, and not blindly soft."

You have to take care of their lives, but you can't let these people be idle, you have to let them work, build wooden houses, build fire pits, and then find a suitable place for them to dry salt.

As soon as you unload these people, food, and supplies, you return here. I'm going to keep collecting villagers, and I'm guessing I'll have to get more than a thousand people. ”

Guo Jintao agreed, solemnly saluted Zhao Zizhong, and then boarded the warship.

The fleet slowly left the dock and headed out of Penghu Bay.

At this time, Zhai Xiaoshan came over and said:

"Mr. Zhao, some villagers have a lot of opinions about us, saying that we have thrown away iron farm tools, tools, and iron tools such as iron pots, which is definitely too wasteful. They insist on taking all these things away, what do you think should be done? ”

Zhao Zizhong slapped his head: "I'm really confused!" You can't leave these things behind, take them all away. Iron is very precious now, how can I forget about it? ”

Zhai Xiaoshan nodded and continued: "Master Taiqin is trying to persuade these villagers, and he has played a great role. He said he wanted to go to other islands to see if anyone would like to go with us. ”

Zhao Zizhong immediately said: "You send two teams to follow him and protect Master Taiqin." Then send a boat to take him around the surrounding islands, and if anyone wants to go with us, take them with him. ”

------------ ---------- -------------

Three days later, Taichin brought back more than 300 people from the other islands, all of whom had been looted by the pirates and could no longer survive.

Together with the more than 600 villagers on Penghu Island, nearly 1,000 people gathered on the beach, waiting to set off for begging.

Zhao Zizhong, Du Dalei, and Boris were very busy, and took the guards to arrange food for these people, maintain order, help them pick out the personal belongings they brought on the ship, and throw away some clumsy furniture.

Some people didn't give up, crying and trying to take all these things away. Taichin offered kind advice, and some people heeded the advice and threw away all the furniture.

A small number of people still did not agree, and made a big fuss, and they were entangled with the guards.

Zhao Zi became angry and ordered the guards to beat these people hard, and then threw them out, leaving them to fend for themselves.

Tai Qin was a little unbearable, and said to Zhao Zizhong: "Master Zhao, let's give these people a chance to change." They are indeed wrong, but God has the virtue of a good life, they have nothing left, and staying here is a dead end. Have mercy on them and save their lives. ”

Zhao Zizhong said solemnly: "Master Taiqin, we will not take in those who do not obey orders. As the saying goes, 'Heaven is forgivable.' and thou shalt not live. The way they are is completely self-inflicted, and I will not be merciful. When these people come to the outrage, they are an unstable factor, and I am afraid that if they have a small dissatisfaction, they will encourage others to make trouble. ”

Tai Qin thought about it and said, "Master Zhao, you see if this will work, I'll go talk to them." If they repent and are willing to obey your commands, we will take them away. If they are obsessed, they will be left to their own devices. ”

Zhao Zizhong looked at the villagers who were worried in the distance, and said to Tai Qin:

"Master, talk to them. I give them one last chance and take them away if they are willing to obey our orders. If they get to the boat and try to make trouble, I'll throw them into the sea and feed the fish! Tell them about it. ”

Taichin sighed and went to find the villagers.

After about half an hour, Taichen returned. His face was a little worried, and he said to Zhao Zizhong:

"Hey, Master Zhao, it's really a lack of people's hearts! Some people agreed, but a few people put forward a lot of conditions, and the Sprinkle family couldn't listen to it, so they could only let these people fend for themselves. ”

Zhao Zizhong sneered: "Master, people's greed is unlimited, we can only save those who are willing to obey orders, and others can't help." ”

Zhao Zizhong ordered Zhai Xiaoshan to bring over all the people who were willing to obey the order, and the others ran away with sticks to prevent them from peeping around.

Zhai Xiaoshan immediately rushed up with dozens of guards, singled out those who were willing to obey, and brought them back to the beach.

Then he gave the order, and the wolf-like guards rushed forward and beat the dozen or so people who stayed outside the makeshift camp to cry and cry for their mothers, and they all fled.
