Chapter 281: The Verge
When Park Yonghe rebelled, Kaesong led pirates into the city, resulting in the fall of Pohang City and spread to Jincheng, Jin Famin was furious and wanted to behead Park Yonghe's whole family, and sent Kim Yuxin to lead 10,000 troops to recover Pohang, and at the same time ordered Jin Yuanshu to immediately set off to the northern border pass to prepare for war, and Naima Bianshan sent an envoy to Pyongyang to confuse the Huangkou child.

When Kim Yushin arrived in Pohang, the entire city was in ruins due to a raging fire, which was learned from the refugees who had escaped from the city. After the pirates broke through the city, they plundered the city, and took away its property, young men and women. The traitor to Kaesong, Park Yong-hwa, was extremely hateful, more vicious than a pirate. The pirates were ready to retreat, and he led his men to kill all the young and old in the city, and set fire to the city.

Li Yu looked at Wang Aoke's report, and was pleasantly surprised, he actually annihilated the Silla Eastern Naval Division, and also surrendered more than 3,000 Silla puppet troops. After this blow, Silla was left with only 300 warships of the Western Naval Division. In addition, 10,000 Silla men and women, 100,000 stone grains and 200,000 pieces worth of property were looted and transported to Pyongyang for storage.
Now, the grain that was originally planned to lead the army south in the autumn is all there. Li Yu smiled almost and sighed: "It's really much faster to grab the money than I am fortunate to have earned it." ā
Li Yu wondered if he would order the Yellow Sea and East China Sea fleets to annihilate the Western Naval Division stationed in Haikou County, northwest of Silla, and clear away the hidden dangers.
Xiao Shu entered the palace and played: "Your Highness, the Silla envoy Nai Mabian Mountain came to ask for a meeting?" ā
"Huh? How did he get here? Noisy. ā
"Whoa."
Li Yu put away Wang Aoke's recital, sat on the couch, and after a while, he felt a little hot, and had to ask the flowery twin maids beside him to make the fan bigger.
The weather in Pyongyang is really not warmer than Liaodong in winter, and not cooler than Jiangnan in summer, so Li Yu really wants to go to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to cool down in the season.
Naimabiansan entered the main hall, saluted Li Yu, and then said a lot of compliments on Li Yu's benevolence, and then complained about the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and then mentioned the pirates who had recently ravaged the shores of Silla.
Li Yu was deeply shocked and asked, "There are a large number of lawless pirates on the south coast of your country?" ā
"Your Highness, exactly. This gang of pirates is entrenched in the South China Sea and Geoje Island, harassing the coastal counties every time, and doing all kinds of evil in captivity. After successively attacking more than a dozen cities on the east and south coasts of our country, killing and injuring tens of thousands of our soldiers and civilians, and displacing hundreds of thousands of people......"
"How many pirates are there?" Li Yu asked knowingly.
Naimabianshan paused and said, "There are probably more than 10,000 people." ā
"Haha!" Li Yu smiled shamefully: "You Silla has 300,000 soldiers, but you can't handle more than 10,000 pirates? According to the king, you go back and tell Jin Famin that you simply pack up your belongings and move the whole clan to Chang'an to settle down, and the land and people of Silla will be merged into the Tang Dynasty, maybe his generation can still enjoy the joy of family in Chang'an? Otherwise, judging from his current ability to govern the country, in a few years, these more than 10,000 pirates will be able to break through Jincheng and take Jin Famin and his people captive as slaves and maids. ā
Li Yu humiliated his country in public, and Naimabian Mountain blushed and retorted unwillingly: "His Royal Highness King Yan, the reason why my country can't solve this gang of pirates for the time being is that His Royal Highness is eyeing my Silla. The king had to garrison his army on the western and northern borders to defend the borders, allowing the minority to raid the weakly defended eastern and southern coasts. In the course of the battle with the pirates, I found that to the indignation of the Silla monarchs, the warships piloted by these pirates were all Lou ships and Mongchong owned by the Tang naval divisions, and the Silla naval divisions were defeated, and the eastern and southern naval divisions were all destroyed. I don't know if this group of pirates has anything to do with the Tang Kingdom and His Royal Highness? ā
Li Yu smiled: "Due to the demise of Goguryeo, a large number of sailors recruited by the Tang Dynasty later lost their usefulness, and they had no source of livelihood, and many people chose to sail to sea to make a living. Perhaps it was these poor men who were making a living at sea who were ravaging the shores of Silla at the moment. According to the king, go back and persuade the king of Silla to give this group of pirates ten thousand taels of gold and silver, and enough food and cloth every year. With a livelihood, the king is confident that the pirates will never risk their lives to go ashore again. ā
Li Yu's mouth full of nonsense shocked Naima Bianshan, this is the Tang Guoyan King who is full of economy, benevolence and righteousness, courtesy and faith? Talking nonsense with your eyes open, what is the difference between this and a scoundrel in the market?
If Li Yu knew that Naimabianshan despised him from the bottom of his heart, he would definitely teach him a good lesson: What does it mean to be shameless for the interests of the country!
Only the most shameless leader in the world can bring a country to prosperity and power, and govern the country with personal morality, which is the work of a fool, and I am ashamed of it!
Isn't Liu Bang in history the benchmark among such figures?
Xiang Yu, who was noble-born, virtuous, ethical and faithful, looked at the martial arts of the world, used soldiers like gods, and it was difficult to have an enemy in the world, so what? is not dead at the hands of Liu Bang, a villain who was born a scoundrel, has no faith and no righteousness, has been defeated and defeated repeatedly.
Don't mention far, take this dynasty as an example: at the end of the Sui Dynasty, when the world was divided, two great heroes rose in the east and west, Li Tang in the west and Dou Jiande in the east.
On the benevolence of the people, the centripetal force of the people in the ruling area, the Xia regime established by Dou Jiande directly threw off the Tang Dynasty street when Gaozu was in power. After Dou Jiande was captured and killed by Emperor Taizongwen in the first battle of Tiger Prison, Henan to Hebei, it can be said that the people all the way are the clothes and tombs of Dou Jiande.
But, what's the use?
Regarding whether the pirates had anything to do with the Tang Kingdom, Naima Bianshan and Li Yu argued in the hall for an hour, and Li Yu denied that it had anything to do with it.
He had to express sympathy and verbal condolences for the tragic plight of the people of Silla, and he made undisguised contempt for Kim Famin and the Silla courtiers, which made Namabiansan so angry that his face turned red and he almost walked away.
Naimabianshan endured his anger and said goodbye, and returned to the post house, and Li Yu received an urgent report from Li Shangdan, the governor of the Seoul Prefecture Governor's Office.
"After the arrival of Kim Wonshu, the new commander-in-chief of the northern army of Silla, he stepped up the stockpiling of grain and grass, built siege equipment, and mobilized troops. He also requisitioned Silla and settled in its territory of Beiyuan Xiaojing, and established 3,000 people of the Ansun Division, the remnants of Goguryeo to report to Germany, hoping to have the image of attacking the north. The garrison of the Seoul Prefecture Governor's Mansion has only four guards and armies, and it may be difficult to resist the 100,000 Silla army heading north, so please make a quick decision and send troops to help. ā
At the same time, Yoo In-won, the governor of the Xiongjin Prefecture who guarded the southwest and northeast corners of Baekje, also hurriedly played: "Silla's 50,000-strong army in Baekje is being deployed, and Silla scouts frequently enter to spy on the military situation. ā
Li Yu put down the two-point report, "It seems that Jin Famin jumped over the wall in a hurry, this is to fight before the blood is drained by me." They all sent generals to the border gates, and sent envoys to question the pirates? This Kim Famin is really interesting. ā
"Someone." Li Yu shouted outside the palace: "Go to the post house and arrest the Silla envoy Naimabian Mountain, and leave it for the flag to be sacrificed when you go out on the expedition!" ā
"Whoa!"
Several guards rushed into the post house with leg cuffs, and pressed Nama Bianshan, who was tasting tea, directly to the ground, and put on the leg cuffs.
Nama Bianshan shouted and protested from beginning to end, but it was useless, the guards thought he was too noisy and stuffed a ball of stinky socks directly in his mouth, and then quietly pulled all the way into the cell.
At this time, the border between the two countries was covered with dark clouds and tense swords, and the war was about to break out and blood flowed.
