Chapter 185: The Frustrated Uncle Sun Kang
After Xue Maoxun and Cheng Wuzhong completed the handover of the garrison, they learned that Ning Zi, the captain of the Chifeng Guard, often reported from Tsushima that the Tsushima Island he had captured by order was not a country, but the land of the Wa Kingdom. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info worried that the Japanese would send a large army to attack, and asked for countermeasures.
Lu Zhaolin, who was promoted to the governor of the Xingzhou Governor's Mansion, discussed with Xue Maoxun and Cheng Wuzhong that it was unwise to withdraw the army from Tsushima before His Royal Highness Ming was borne, and he ran away before the Japanese army came, fearing that he would be attacked and raped and feared of the enemy.
It was decided to send a clipper back to Pyongyang to clarify the situation in Tsushima, and it was up to King Yan to decide whether to defend or withdraw.
In view of the fact that Chi Fengwei belonged to the unity army of half peasants and half soldiers, and was about to return north for grain harvesting, the Ningzi permanent unit stationed on Tsushima Island needed to be replaced.
Considering the possible counterattack of the Japanese army, Xue Maoxun ordered the commander Zheng Liuqi to lead his battalion to Tsushima Island to replace Ningzichang's troops, and Wu Sanhe's battalion stayed in Xingzhou, and he personally led the remaining 1,400 soldiers and horses to Tianshun City in the Ryukyu Islands, and took up the post of governor of Liuqiu to conquer the entire Liuqiu Islands.
In the past few days, Uncle Sun Kang has been in a terrible mood, unable to swallow and depressed.
"Ah Yan, this is a fish soup made with the yellow-lipped fish that I just caught this morning, it is delicious and the meat is tender, come and try it......"
"Roll"
"Ah......h
Uncle Sun Kang waved his hand impatiently, and pushed Tiansun Lingzi, who was holding the fish soup with a flattering smile, to the ground, and a delicious and expensive yellow-lipped fish soup that was going to sell at a sky-high price in Datang was scattered all over the ground.
Tiansun Lingzi fell to the ground, and the hot fish soup splashed on Bai Jie's little hand, which was hot and red. Holding his injured little hand in pain, Tiansun Lingzi didn't dare to cry out with tears in the corners of his eyes, and looked at his uncle Sun Kang in fear.
Uncle Sun Kang, who was in a depressed mood, glanced at Tiansun Lingzi and said angrily: "Why don't you get out of here?" ”
"Whoa."
Tiansun Lingzi wept and cleaned up the broken bowl on the ground and left in embarrassment.
Uncle Sun Kang, who was pacing back and forth, became more and more depressed, and roared: "Why? The Ryukyu Islands were built over a period of more than half a year, and the fact that they have the current civilization is also the result of the management of the poor roads. Now a piece of paper is about to be handed over to the poor road, and in the Ryukyu Governor's Mansion, the poor road is just a small Tianshun City county order? ”
Three days ago, Xue Maoxun led his troops to Tianshun Castle on Okinawa Island in the Ryukyus, summoned Sun Kang, who had been the king of Tu for more than half a year, and announced the latest appointment of King Yan.
First, the small Ryukyu was changed to the Ryukyu Islands, the Great Ryukyu was the island of Taiwan, the island where Tianshun Castle was located was Okinawa, and the other unnamed islands were also named in turn.
Second, the Ryukyu Governor's Office was set up in the Ryukyu Islands, with Xue Maoxun, the general of the Chaos Guard, as the governor, conquering other islands, and setting up prefectures and counties to naturalize the islands.
For most of the year, Shusun Kang spontaneously organized the Shimayi army to conquer the islands north of Okinawa Island and Amami Island, and at the beginning of the year, he sent troops southwest to conquer Ishigaki, Miyako and other southern Ryukyu islands.
On each island, the original Daoyi village community was disorganized and mixed into the village and village organization of the Tang Dynasty.
Because there were more than 50,000 people in the entire Ryukyu Islands (there were as many as 70,000 or 80,000, but due to the bloody conquest and suppression of the rebels by Shusun Kang, a large number of Daoyi Qing died, resulting in a great decline in population), there were 10 townships in Lishang, and among the 50 sergeants left here by the southeast expedition team, they were selected to serve as village leaders, and each had 100 Yi soldiers.
Together with the 500 soldiers stationed at Linggong Castle and personally commanded by Shusun Kang, there were 1,500 soldiers and horses under the control of Shusun Kang in the entire Ryukyu Islands.
However, what Shusun Kang did in the Ryukyu Islands was not reported to Li Yuyu, and when the Southeast China Sea expedition returned, it did not return to the Ryukyu Islands due to a storm at sea. Therefore, the great changes that took place in the Ryukyu Islands due to Shusun Yasu are not known to outsiders.
As a result, Li Yu only served as the county commander of Tianshun City in the Ryukyu Governor's Mansion, and the remaining 50 people were given positions according to the merits made by Xue Maoxun in the conquest of the Ryukyus.
It was Xue Maoxun's announcement that caused the calm Ryukyu Islands to suddenly surge.
Shusun Kang did not want the fruits of his hard work to be picked up, and only got the post of a county magistrate, and the other fifty people were dissatisfied with the position of the township leader who had been obtained through hard work and was now in a pending state.
To the dissatisfaction of their uncle Sun Kang, who stayed in the Ryukyus at the beginning, King Yan promised most of the reclaimable land of the Ryukyu Islands to the Chaos Guards who came.
Xue Maoxun brought 1,400 Chaos Guards with actual combat experience, well-equipped and with high morale.
Although Shusun Kang had 1,500 soldiers and horses in his hands, although those soldiers were trained, their equipment, tactics, and physique could not match the Chaos Guard.
Although Shusun Kang was not convinced, he couldn't afford to resist at all, and on the surface he respected the will of King Yan announced by Xue Maoxun, but behind his back, he sent someone to immediately summon Shixiang Township and other soldiers who stayed behind to discuss countermeasures.
"Dao Chief, we can't just give up the Ryukyu that we have worked so hard for more than half a year to that Xue Maoxun."
"By the way, I haven't heard of who the surname Xue is, but he picked our fruit before the battle, and the brothers are not convinced."
"Especially the soldiers and horses brought by the surname Xue have to share more than 140 acres of cultivated land from the Ryukyus we have played, how can this make the brothers here embarrassed? We haven't carved out more than 1,000 acres of land yet. ”
……
In the hall, the fifty people seated were furious, and they denounced Xue Maoxun and the Chaos Guards led by him over and over again, and the Chaos Guards were like great enemies.
"Why don't we gather soldiers and horses and do chaos down?" A fierce-looking man with a big beard proposed in his heart.
"That's right, the Ryukyu Islands are separated by thousands of miles from the East China Sea to Andong or Datang, let's destroy the Chaos Guard, and no one will go back alive to report who will know that we did it."
Someone asked angrily: "The armor and weapons of the Chaos Guard are not comparable to us, and those soldiers under our command are even worse, most of them don't even have an iron spear." What's more, we don't have the advantage of numbers, so what can we do to destroy the Chaos Guard? ”
The proposer chuckled and said, "There are more than 50,000 islands in Ryukyu, and we can recruit eight or nine thousand young people, under our command, we can use the number of people to kill the Chaos Guard by surprise, and we can't destroy them?" ”
"Knock"
"Confused, stupid." Uncle Sun Kang slammed the table and loudly scolded the proposer: "Our soldiers are distributed across the archipelago that stretches for thousands of miles, and the Chaos Guard will not notice the collection of young and strong soldiers and horses from various islands? Transporting the Chaos Guard is the ten ships of Jiaolong Haihang, can we easily destroy them? Don't forget how we managed to capture the Ryukyu Islands with a few hundred men. With the thousands of islands we have collected, we can beat the Chaos Guard, first of all, which of you can get thousands of steel knives for the poor road......"
The proposer was scolded by Uncle Sun Kang, and lowered his head in frustration, and some of the movers woke up in a cold sweat, thinking deeply that they really didn't have the strength to defeat the Chaos Guard.
In addition to Shusun Kang, the remaining fifty people in the hall were just toiling people living at the bottom of the society in Datang, who had no knowledge and no talent, and dealt with problems simply and rudely.
Throughout history, it will be found that few rebels from the bottom of society succeeded, and the process was full of corpses and blood, leaving infamy for eternity.
"Then the brothers can't just hand over their rights and let the Chaos Guard take our merits to ask King Yan for credit, right?" Someone asked cautiously.
"Of course not."
Uncle Sun Kang said with a smile: "Yonaguni Island, the westernmost island of the Ryukyu Islands, is only a two-day sea route from Taiwan Island. ”
"What does the Taoist mean?"
"Didn't Xue Maoxun think that we had beaten the Ryukyus, he had no battle to fight on his 10,000-mile expedition, and the Chaos Guard had no merits to ask King Yan for credit? Then let's point out to him the place where he can get military exploits, that is, the island of Taiwan. ”
Others still don't understand what kind of medicine is sold in Uncle Sun Kang's gourd, and they touch their heads, you look at me, I look at you.
Uncle Sun Kang despised this group of fools in his heart, and continued: "The poor road in the western part of Taiwan Island was also explored back then, and there were many people on the island, brave and good at war, and they liked to cut off people's heads, and the area was much larger than the small Liuqiu, which was enough to tempt Xue Maoxun to lead his troops to obtain military achievements. But the island is full of miasma, think about the Three Kingdoms, Sun Quan sent Wei Wen, Zhuge Zhi to the sea to ask for 10,000 people to reach Yizhou (Taiwan), due to the epidemic of the epidemic, the water and soil are not adapted, and the people who died of the disease are nine out of ten, and they return in embarrassment. As long as Xue Maoxun went to attack Taiwan, the miasma and barbarism on the island were enough to make it difficult for him to come back alive. Even if he escapes back, Poor Dao can take the opportunity to join him in front of King Yan, get rid of his position as the governor of the Ryukyu Governor's Mansion, and then show us the merits of the Ryukyu Governor's Mansion, isn't this Ryukyu Governor's Mansion still ours? ”
When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed in their hearts, and they all complimented their uncle and grandson Daochang for his outstanding wisdom and outstanding living Zhuge in the world.
