Although the oceanic climate is not scorching and cold, for the people of the Japanese who are still wearing sackcloth, it is still cold and shivering, blowing the cold wind, and a large number of Japanese people are like ants who continue to carry the ore collected from the mountains to the foot of the mountain.

The class differentiation is really very fast, only two months ago, many samurai were still fleeing tribesmen bandits, even a few levels lower than the people of Putong, but now, they have become the ruling class, wearing cotton clothes imported from the Tang Dynasty, wearing leather armor, and picking up whips, they don't have to be a little lighter than the former clan slaves.

"Hurry up, hurry up to Lao Tzu, the great grace of the king of Fujian, this is the only way to bring rice to help you poor ghosts, otherwise how can you poor ghosts deserve to eat rice, and if you don't repay the great grace of the king of Fujian, Lao Tzu will kill you."

Speaking of today's most popular Tang choking, the reprimands of the samurai are endless, and the whips are crackling, Rao is so, and the miners gathered nearby still have to grit their teeth and endure it.

Before, as a nobleman or a member of the imperial court, the annual harvest should be handed over to the imperial court, and the coarse grain soybean meal eaten as pig food was eaten, and now it is cultivated for the samurai manor, so that part of the harvest will be left to himself, and the imperial court will give relief in the famine year, so as not to starve to death, and if you do a good job, you will have a small piece of land that belongs to you, anyway, you don't have the courage to rebel, why can't you bear to live well?

"Good job, you."

Sho kicked on the butt of a miner in the Wa Kingdom, and watched the miner crawl out a few meters away with a rolling belt, and the samurai head Muraguchi Jifu here couldn't help laughing, but before he finished laughing, a whip suddenly came from behind him, and he still screamed through the thick cotton clothes.

"Bastard thing, His Royal Highness the King of Min wants efficiency, you have knocked over all the miners like you, delayed the great cause of His Royal Highness the King of Min, and wants your head!"

Carrying a long leather whip and a curly beard, the mine supervisor scolded his grandson. was whipped up, but the second husband of the village mouth nodded like a pug and came back: "Taijun, what Taijun said is very true, the small one will be changed, this will be changed." ”

Taijun's pronunciation as a wolf is the meaning of the captain, anyway, the Tang people are not the captain, or the captain, it will not be wrong to call it so, sure enough, the beard mine couldn't help but curl up with a smile.

"Okay, there is no need to change it now, but today is the day when the King of Min and the general Zhengyi came to inspect together, and he must pretend to be an image of loving the people like a son to Ben Taijun."

"Hay!" The second husband of the village mouth immediately came to a ninety-degree bow.

At noon, Li Jie and Li You really came, but this time there were thousands of soldiers and horses with him, this piece belonged to Owari Province and was sealed by Li Jie here to get Oda Nobunaga's territory, and Muraguchi Jifu was one of Oda Nobunaga's many brothers, otherwise he would not be the leader of the samurai in prison.

said that it was pretending, but the two husbands at the entrance of the village were really pretending, the spring breeze of the overseer warriors laughing warmly, and the hot rice porridge was personally delivered to the laborers, and the laborers of the Japanese country were like the hawkers who were robbed by the chengguan and sent back, and even the monks of the temple built by Su I into the deer on the mountain came down to Pudu sentient beings.

It's a pity that all the good things were done for the blind man to see, and after such a while, Li Jie and Li You didn't care about whether the gold miners were doing well or not, and he didn't even pay attention to the gold that had just come out.

Attracting Li Jie to this place is entirely because of the sneak attack of the Eastern Kingdom, which is close to the Mino country where Emperor Tenchi is located, and after the end of the Asuka War, the middle brother and the Zhongchen Kamazu and his party are really far away, and they ran to the seaside of Echigo Country in one fell swoop to plan to go to China, and later learned that even the surname was not broken, and the Western Army did not catch up, so he had the courage to return to the Mino country, and succeeded the emperor to engage in a confrontation between the east and the west.

I have to say that it is really war that makes people progress, when Li Jie was busy cleaning up the western country, in the eastern country, Zhongchen Kazuzu was not idle, while continuing to implement some of the contents of the Dahua reform, on the other hand, he also gathered the feudal lords of various clans together, and in two months, he also retrained an unknown number of troops, and Zhongchen Kamazu also started diplomatic means, one of the two envoys went straight to the Tang Dynasty, and the other ran to the subject country Baekje.

There are a total of three shipping ports docked between the Wa Kingdom and the Tang Dynasty, Namba went to Fujian, Jiuzhou went to Jianye, and Echigo went to Denglai, the first two were lost, and the latter one happened to crash into Li You's hometown.

In terms of overall strategy, the eastern kingdom still looks like a comprehensive shrinkage, and it is always the guardian daimyo under Li Jie's seal to harass him, but when Li You succeeded as the shogun, the eastern army suddenly rushed out of the pass and attacked several daimyo territories in a row, which is unusual.

"Could it be that the eldest brother already thinks that he has accumulated enough strength to fight us in a decisive battle?" Bypassing the gold mine in the Oda territory, he walked slowly with the guards, walking on horseback, while Li Jie was still puzzled, in comparison, Li You, who was wearing a big armor of the Japanese country, was much more indifferent.

"Anyway, sooner or later, we're going to have to fight, isn't it just right for them to call? You have to run all the way to destroy them. ”

"Then who got the news and rushed headlong into the hot springs and almost drowned?" Listening to Li You's bragging, Li Jie rolled his eyes and lifted it, and sure enough, a sentence almost didn't let Li You fall off the horse, and finally grabbed the reins, Li You bowed his head without the shogunate general Fan Bei and said: "General Ben didn't hear that the gold mine was attacked, isn't he in a hurry?" ”

This time, the two dogs ridden by Li Jie snorted with disdain, which made the dignified shogun lose face.

A few days ago, the eastern country did not send many troops, a total of only a few thousand people, but still not some samurai but a few hundred small lords can resist, due to the suddenness of the raid, never break the pass to hide a few miles of the three lords' castles were burned, dead about 500 samurai, and when Oda Nobunaga organized a large army to meet the battle, the eastern * team has retreated without breaking the pass.

After walking a few miles in front of him, he arrived at the scene of the incident, which was really a typical feudal lord manor of the Wa Kingdom, Oda Nobunaga was appreciated by Li Jie in the later battle, and the territory soared directly from 10,000 stone to 260,000 stone, connecting into a large area, so he promoted his powerful samurai to a substitute guard, or used the original castle, or built a new mountain castle by himself, and each of the twenty castles managed a territory of 10,000 stones.

The castle was built on a hill, and the farmstead fields were nearby, but unfortunately at this time, the farmstead and the crops on it were all trampled and burned, and more than half of the wooden castle was burned, only the stone foundation was still intact, and the corpses of the samurai and the guardians were also collected, and it seemed that there was no evidence or trace except for the ruins.

"Spread out! Nearby Alert. When he arrived at the place, Li Jie directly ordered loudly, followed by more than 1,000 warriors, and about 1,000 Tang troops immediately dispersed to the left and right, Liang Mengbiao and Wang Fangyi led the horses to guard the left and right, and Li Jie and Li You got off their horses and walked directly to the battlefield.

"Lao Jiu, what's there to see here?" Looking at the dilapidated fortress that smoked like a chimney, Li You yawned boredly, squinted his eyes and complained with a big mouth, and Li Jie suddenly punched his head, and immediately made Li You sleepy, covering his big helmet and screaming at the head.

"You are still a general, you know that you will not be defeated in a hundred battles, and now the Japanese army in the eastern country is different from two months ago, if you are still so careless about the enemy, you, the shogunate, do you still want to be the king of the Japanese land?"

Li Jie hated the lesson that iron does not become steel, and Li You, who listened to it, nodded like a chicken, but unfortunately followed Li Jie two steps, and the shogun complained helplessly: "But, what can you see in this place?" ”

"I can see a lot!"

In his previous life, Li Jie did something, an intern graduate student in the Department of Archaeology, although the university is not well-known, the professor who took him is also very grassroots, and obscene, and the most he does is pastoral archaeology, otherwise he would not have encountered such a tragic incident in West Asia, and a wisp of incense and soul leisurely arrived in the Tang Dynasty, so Li Jie's strongest point is really not marching and fighting, but trace investigation.

"Like here." Pulling Li You, he advanced the burned castle, although the corpses were removed, but the traces of the original place were still there, pointing to the distorted human figure on the ground, Li Jie showed off his analysis: "A total of more than thirty corpses were found from the castle, half of them were servants and miscellaneous servants in the castle, and this castle should have one hundred and thirty samurai, so it means that most of the samurai died outside with the Dai Guardian." ”

"Look outside." Pulling Li You, Li Jie went out again.

"This trace is very chaotic, most of the corpses are also here, this is the main battlefield, the time for the attack of the Eastern Army is very short, and when the daimyo Oda Nobunaga brings people to help, the wooden fortress has been burned with firewood, which means that the dai guardian here was broken and killed in a very short time."

"Fifth brother, you also participated in the training of the samurai, imitating the training of our Datang Circle Formation, even if it is several times the enemy, it is enough to support the last hour, what can break through the samurai formation in such a short time and kill these hundreds of samurai?" Pinching his chin, Li Jie couldn't help but ponder, but at this time, Li You yawned and said boringly: "In addition to using a bow and crossbow array, it is a cavalry!" ”

"The bow and crossbow array is impossible, that is the cavalry, but the impact of the Japanese horses is limited, what is the purpose of this reckless tentative attack?" Rubbing his head, Li Jie meditated again, but after only a moment, he kept his eyes and slapped his head suddenly.

"There are cavalry with quick reactions, and they are very strange and rash to attack, could it be to lure us out?"

As soon as the words fell, the colonel who was in charge of exploring the horses outside galloped back, and shouted as he ran: "General, King Min, the big thing is not good, the cavalry of the Eastern Brigade has poured out of the nest through the pass, and it is not far from here!" ”

"Damn it!" It was really curiosity that killed the cat, pulling Li You, who was stunned, Li Jie immediately roared loudly: "Order the whole army to retreat to the Oda gold mine, rely on the gold mine to resist, send a message to the nearby daimyo, and order them to quickly bring troops to help!" ”。
