Chapter 977: Floating Dream 7
When the news of the victory of Chungju Fortress in the Silla Domain reached Xuzhou, it was already a matter of the middle of October. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Of course, under the overwhelming offensive, similar good news and victories, since the Qingzhou Garrison Army crossed the sea to conquer the east, I have heard a lot, so that people have been a little numb.
This time, there seems to be no surprise.
Although the post-Baekje side rarely gathered tens of thousands of troops on the spot to rely on the city to face the battle, it could not change the entire process of the decisive battle outside the city, which was the result of being crushed by the overwhelming superiority of the Huai army from cold weapons to firearms, from infantry sabers and cavalry. Only when he finally attacked Chungju Castle, he encountered a little trouble.
As the capital of the northern part of Chungcheong-do and the periphery of the Gyeonggi region, it was a relatively rare large city in Silla, completely modeled after the scale and structure of Middle-earth, so it could accommodate a population of 100,000 at its peak. Prior to this, the coalition of more than a dozen local princes had besieged intermittently for several months and had not been able to take it.
On the contrary, because the division was tired and tired by the long-term attack, it was defeated and lost by the enemy's foreign aid.
Now, it is a gathering of people from all walks of life who have retreated and contracted in the post-Baekje kingdom to resist stubbornly; Therefore, as the vanguard and cannon fodder of the Huai army, the local feudal soldiers were repulsed and driven down several times, so Zhao Long concentrated the accompanying field artillery to suppress the city, and then sent people to blow up the blocked city gate and finally made a final decision.
As for the concentration of artillery to break the wall of Chungju, in the subsequent suppression of the city and the law and order warfare in the final part of the city, it is not a commendable thing to behead a generalissimo of the post-Baekje kingdom, capture and kill a bunch of governors, jiedu envoys, economic strategies, defense envoys, assassins, generals, etc.
However, this time things were different, in the battles outside and inside the city, there were a large number of Japanese soldiers from the Fuso Domain, and their fighting will, morale, training and organization were somewhat stronger than those who were coerced by the rabble; Therefore, the time of the follow-up street fighting has also been relatively extended.
And at least the banners of several feudal lords were seized on the spot, and the captures through torture all pointed to the Kwantung princes group headed by the Kira clan to which the Fuso Northern Dynasty forces belonged.
In this way, this behind-the-scenes background and backer related to the Boluo Club is about to come out.
It's just that since the matter involves the Fuso Domain, there is some trouble.
On the one hand, this also means that the war against this "post-Baekje" country is not so easy to achieve a quick victory. At least until it snows this winter, there is no hope and no realization.
On the other hand, although Huaizhen already has more than two mobile and armed forces on the sea, its naval and land military projection capabilities and specific threats are limited to the coastal areas of the Yellow Sea that extend from the inner circle of the Bohai Rim and some of them. For the land of Fuso, which is across the sea from the Silla Domain, it is still a bit beyond the reach of the whip, especially in the eastern country of Fuso, which is located in the north of Fuso;
At present, the maximum extent is to maintain a certain degree of trade and other interests at the southern tip of Dazaifu, Kyushu, which is the nearest Kyushu Prefecture, and to occupy some unnoticed corners, and gather some people to dig up some minerals.
Another reason is that this Fusang Domain itself is a mud pit of endless battles, and with the size of the current Huaibei Province, no matter how much strength is invested in it, it may not be able to achieve immediate results.
Unlike Japan, which was relatively backward and impoverished in the Heian period, the Fuso Domain, which was once a branch of the Li Tang Imperial Family, has existed for a long time in history, bringing about earth-shaking changes in the development of civilization and culture in the local culture and technology.
At least, the Japanese people are famous for being able to give birth and bear hardships and stand hard work, coupled with the development and education inherited from the past dynasties, coupled with the interference and infiltration of many external factors, it can be said that in this time and space trajectory, it has entered the Warring States era of strengthening the layout in advance.
Especially in the later period of the Yiwei Rebellion, a large number of people who were still loyal to Li Tang but could not bear the continuous wars, and even wealthy giants, boarded ships and went to the sea to cross to Fusang to avoid disasters, which almost changed the pattern of the land of Fusang to the emerging Southern Dynasties.
As a result, there was a certain remnant of inertia and influence left over from the Otomi Rebellion, and the various forces were divided into two camps, the north and the south, and the two giant clans, the Genji and the Heiji, who ruled each other, fought each other for more than 100 years.
Even successive dynasties have maintained a limited attitude of intervention, and have only maintained a number of enclaves rich in precious metals, but have no interest in intervening or resolving disputes in the land of Fuso.
However, in the case of the biggest enemy, the Northern Dynasty, which has fallen with a bang, maybe the direction of things that has always been the same will change again, and maybe it will happen.
The historical roots of the civil strife and the antagonism between the two families can be traced back to the reign of Queen Xiaoqian, who was contemporaneous with Liang Gong hundreds of years ago, because the queen of the Japanese kingdom successively favored the monks from the eastern soil, Daojing and Xuanfang, not only went in and out of daily life day and night, but also entrusted all the major policies to the position of monks, which caused the dissatisfaction of the local traditional nobles led by the Fujiwara clan.
Eventually, the conflict between the emerging group of monks represented by the Rokushu of Nara and the traditional aristocracy intensified, and the head of the southern family, one of the four Fujiwara families, the minister Fujiwara Katsuoshimi, launched a rebellion that swept through more than a dozen countries, including Heijokyo, and once forced the abdicated queen Hyoken to flee Gyeonggi and supported King Chunin as the new lord.
However, soon, with the support of the Todo Sangha represented by Master Jianzhen, they made a comeback from Middle-earth across the sea and completely defeated the Fujiwara Oshikatsumi clan who controlled Kyoto, and finally slaughtered Omi Province.
He was renamed King Toku, abolished a series of measures and policies of the Fujiwara clan, and promoted the worship of Buddhism as a basic national policy. In addition, he canonized Daojing as the minister of Taizheng Zen Master, and established monks and ministers such as Dharma ministers and Dharma senators, thus opening the dual era of the state lord and Dharma king in which the Sangha participated in politics.
In the pursuit of the remnants of the Fujiwara clan's southern family, there was Fujiwara Katsuoshimi's fourth son and younger brother, with the help of the sea ships of the people from Middle-earth, who escaped from the pursuit on Kanazawa Island, and fled all the way to the south, and finally settled in Yizhou, one of the leaders of Liang Gong at that time, and since then it has taken root in the local area and re-multiplied, and was re-given the surname at the cost of swearing allegiance, which gave rise to the two major branches of the Genji and the Heping clan respectively.
With the death of the childless Empress Koken, the conflict between the Sangha led by the Rokushu of Nara and the local aristocracy led by the Fujiwara Kita family intensified again, and eventually evolved into a palace rebellion and regime change that lasted for several generations, as well as many wars and rebellions centered on.
At this time, the influence from the Tang Dynasty in China gradually penetrated into the Wa Kingdom with the operation and development of overseas in previous dynasties. Eventually, an angel from the Tang Dynasty was brought in to mediate the internal disputes of the Japanese court.
After a series of operations and negotiations, it was announced that the family surnamed the Wa King would be relocated under the protection of the Tang Dynasty, and the bloodline of the Li Tang clan was introduced in the form of a marriage between the King of Jiangcheng and the King of Jiangcheng, and in addition to the two capitals of Heicheng and Shancheng, Heianjing (today's Kyoto) was built as the new capital, which ended the disputes of the generations and started the process of the Tang people dividing and developing the land of the Wa Kingdom.
Although there were several repetitions and disputes during this period, they were undoubtedly suppressed and eliminated under the strength of Datang Zhongxing, and this situation lasted until the outbreak of the Yiwei Rebellion, which naturally affected Fusang, one of the three overseas feudatories.
Among them, under the banner of avenging the Liang family, with the Genji and the Peace clan of Yizhou as the vanguard, they led the Nanhai all the way to cross the sea and attack the land of Fusang, and finally entered the mountain city of Beijing, exiled the king of Baihe, who had a relationship with Li Tang, and set up a separate line of King Chongde, and opened the history of the two families taking turns to govern in Beijing.
However, it didn't take long for the two families to intensify their conflicts and fight in the court, and the local natives and the former Li Tang feudal clan also took advantage of the situation, and finally led the Taira clan to leave Heiankyo in the old capital of Heijokyo (present-day Nara) and established King Toba, the son of the King of Shirakawa, forming a pattern of confrontation and tug-of-war between the Eastern and Western dynasties.
Among them, there are generations of grudges and attacks between the so-called Zhitong faction in the eastern country (descendants of the Japanese people from the mainland) and the Guiyi faction in the western country (descendants of the Japanese people who returned from overseas); The "Three Capitals and Five Mountains" Sangha who held political privileges and armed themselves with private soldiers, and the intrigue and alliance between the lineage of the ministers of the north and the south.
It's just that although the wars that have lasted for hundreds of years in the land of Fuso are extremely frequent, there are many private battles between various clans and famous lords, and there are few regionally decisive battles, and in terms of the scale and intensity of the wars, they are incomparable with the Middle-earth continent.
Therefore, the ant people in Fusang can more or less get some short-term recuperation and even recuperation, and continue to reproduce and survive in all corners of Fusang.
Of course, now that the Northern Dynasty, as the biggest enemy, is gradually gone, the pillars of the national dynasty who can draw their hands want to change the situation of the confrontation between the north and the south, which is no longer an empty and distant expectation.
After all, with the country's vigor and swallowing the south of the Yangtze River and the huge size of the Central Plains, even if you don't do any substantive action, just a nominal and righteous support is enough to form a chain reaction that breaks the overall environment of Fusang.
Therefore, from this point of view, the princes of Fuso want to take the initiative to get involved and gradually infiltrate, and those corners of Middle-earth are not a realistic direction to seek a way out and actively seek a way out.
However, the direction that the dynasty needs to seek is not necessarily where the interests and positions of our Huaizhen lie. However, this does not mean that I have nothing to do, after consulting and referring to the corresponding staff and staff groups.
I have also preliminarily sorted out that multi-pronged measures and countermeasures can be adopted at present;
On the one hand, it continued to use the banner of the Great Liang of the National Dynasty to create public opinion to actively support and support the Southern Dynasty with the help of the Great Liang of the National Dynasty and the Tiger Skin as the Great Banner, and the Southern Dynasty that was opposed to the forces of the Eastern Kingdom of Fuso; The creation of momentum and pressure on public opinion at least gave the South Korean side the motivation and opportunity to launch another invasion and annexation offensive;
on the other hand, it is to form a mixed naval division composed of warships, troop carriers, and baggage ships, which have a certain long self-sustaining ability; Traveling north along the sea off southern Silla while standby and patrolling in the corresponding sea areas and routes,
Then, while exercising and seeking the enemy, sinking and capturing all ships and transport from Fuso, and trying to blockade and cut off, these backups and supplies from Fuso; If necessary, it can also find an opportunity to land and destroy the corresponding port, at least with the equipment and training of the Huai Army's naval division, even if the number is a little smaller, it is enough to form an advantage in naval warfare;
Because, according to the analysis of the countermeasures of the corresponding staff group, it is not believed that these foreign armies can be self-sufficient just by relying on the territory of the post-Baekje country. Once they fall into serious hardship and deprivation, it is self-evident what these Fuso soldiers and horses will do.
In addition, by increasing the power of the Silla domain in the future, using Silla as a stage and battlefield, and continuing to inflict heavy damage on these foreign aid forces in Fuso, it is better to keep them all in the land of Silla, which will naturally cause some kind of chain reaction that will break the balance in the country of Fuso.
Finally, for the post-Baekje side, the supporting economic warfare requires the joint efforts of the commercial department and the field of foreign affairs; Of course, it was also indispensable to fight for the position of the national dynasty, and then organize a group of Silla princes to represent the past and cry and exaggerate the ambition and seriousness of the land of Fusang since the defeat of the Battle of Baekjiangkou in the early Tang Dynasty, and the large-scale deployment of troops to the mainland again after hundreds of years.
In this case, Liu Qi's several battalions of naval troops, which were responsible for monitoring Pinglu Dao, would be withdrawn, and he would re-accompany Zong Ze as the chief and deputy commander of this mixed ship regiment.
After a series of complicated thoughts and considerations, my heart suddenly moved; Since this Boluo Society is somewhat involved and related to the Gongsun family that is hidden deeper, does that mean that similar results can be deduced?
This Fusang Domain really has the meaning of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon; Thinking of this, I decided to call Aqi over and make it again. (To be continued.) )
