1008. Overview of the South
"Come, crabs, hairy crabs." "Also, there will be a large plate of sea cucumbers, as for all southern seafood!" ……
And Jingwen immediately asked with some heartache: "Why do you all want seafood?" ”
Of course, Jingwen was heartbroken, because the transportation was inconvenient in this era, and Chang'an was inland in the inland, and it was very far away from the coast. Therefore, it is not easy for Chang'an to eat seafood, Jingwen asked people to get it from the coast, and then sent it to Chang'an with living water. But even so, the seafood that can be transported to Chang'an is not one in ten. Therefore, the price of these seafood is very high, and most people cannot afford to eat it. But these grandsons actually specialize in ordering seafood, which is really a dead person.
"Nonsense, you have a treat, of course I ordered food, this time I see that I don't eat poor you!" Fang Yi said viciously.
Yes, Jingwen knows the cautious eyes of these guys. Fang Yizhi and Du Gou, the two prime ministers, do not have their father's prime minister's belly at all, but they are so cautious and compete with Jingwen in this regard. But who let Jingwen make them suffer at that time, so they all retaliated like this.
However, men's friendship is sometimes very simple, Jingwen poured a few cups of those highly distilled "cat urine", and then these two guys were no longer angry, but looked like two brothers.
"Brother Jingwen, I heard that you have been very lucky lately, it's really amazing! You actually went to Goguryeo and immediately abducted the queen back. Brother, I am very jealous, you are not only married to a princess at a young age, but also a queen. Really, our queen there, don't mention it! Du Wei said.
And Jingwen immediately asked: "Do you also have a so-called queen there?" ”
"Of course there is, it's not a good thing that your old subordinate Wang Xuance did!" Fang Yi said directly.
"What's going on?" Jingwen asked.
And Jingwen listened to the explanations of these two guys, and then he knew what was going on in the south. At that time, Jing Wenbao promoted this Wang Xuance to serve as the chief of the Guangzhou Governor's Mansion, and was actually in charge of the affairs of the Guangzhou Governor's Mansion. And this is remarkable, directly grasping the administrative power of many state capitals near Guangzhou. Real power is great.
And Wang Xuance has not forgotten his mission, that is, to open up the Silk Road on the sea and find a way. First of all, he got some ships, and then ordered people to open up sea routes. And he sent three teams of more than 100 people, and then let them go to sea along the coast. These are some bold people, and they are obviously not simple people who dare to go to sea. And one of them actually killed along the coast to the area of Vietnam, which is equivalent to later generations, and at this time it was called Linyi country.
"You don't know, this Linyi country is actually our Chinese territory as early as the Han Dynasty. And they rebelled several times to become independent, and then they were all conquered. The most recent time was during the Sui Dynasty, when Emperor Yang of Sui sent Liu Fang to conquer them. But later, they also took advantage of the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty. And then it was restored. Where are they now at ease! As soon as Wang Xuance's men left, more than 100 people should have defeated more than 1,000 of them, and the army there was simply a group of parallel goods. Originally, the people in Wang Xuance's hands were not elite, and they were all third-rate in our Tang Dynasty, but they were still able to be ten with one, what a mess they were! ”
Du Wei did not shy away from laughing at those Lin Yi troops, because the soldiers under Wang Xuance were all third-rate troops of the Tang Dynasty. According to the regulations of the Tang Dynasty, civil and military officials were separated. However, it is not absolute, and some local officials have some ordinary troops in their hands. However, these troops were also third-rate among all the armies of the Tang Dynasty. And these third-rate troops actually beat more than ten times the troops of Linyi Country to lose their armor, which is obviously speechless.
Lin Yiguo thought that the Celestial Empire had come again, so they immediately organized a large army to come over and want to encircle and suppress it. But after they knew that there were only more than a hundred people, they didn't dare to do anything. And Wang Xuance's subordinate is also shrewd. There is no direct conflict. Both sides are also spending there, and they are both rat traps. Although the people of Linyi were outnumbered, they were worried that if this army was destroyed, then the Central Plains would send a large army to attack again. And the commander of the Don army also knew to be careful. If you reluctantly attack, you are afraid that you will be destroyed, so neither side dares to make the first move. ”
"After that, that Linyi country actually took the initiative to ask to become a vassal state of my Datang again, and then be loyal to Datang!"
Jingwen listened to this. Immediately smiled. This Wang Xuance still has some skills, and he actually sent people to Vietnam in the later generations, which is not simple. However, this was once Chinese territory, but it is also a marginal area. Judging from the fact that they can often return to the country, the ruling power of the Central Plains here is already very weak, and it is impossible to control it deeply, which allows them to return to the country frequently. However, sooner or later, the Central Plains will fight back again, so this can't be given up.
Wang Xuance didn't dare to make a decision on his own, that is, let them send their own people to Chang'an to pay tribute. Next, Wang Xuance didn't care about them, but drew sea charts everywhere, preparing to study a trade route. Du Wei continued.
Jingwen frowned and asked, "Chang'an has not received any news from the envoy from Lin Yi who came to pay tribute!" ”
"None? They promised well, saying that they would come to Chang'an to pay tribute! Fang Yi asked directly.
And Jingwen said with certainty: "No, Chang'an has not received any news that people have come to pay tribute." None of them came to claim that they wanted to become vassal states, so Wang Xuance was deceived! ”
"Good! These guys dare to fool us! Fang Yi said angrily.
Fang Yizhi felt as if he had been insulted, and obviously promised Lord Wang Xuance to come to Chang'an to pay tribute, but the other side immediately didn't send anyone over at all, it turned out that everyone was blind! As a big country, how can this be tolerated by others?
"No, I'm going back, I'm going to Champa in person, and settle accounts with them!" Fang Yizhi said with a hot-blooded young man.
"Champ?" Jingwen was a little curious, as if the word was somewhat familiar.
"Champa is also the capital of Linyi Kingdom, and their capital is called Champ!" Fang Yi said directly.
"Champ? Champa rice? Jingwen immediately began to think of an incident that had been mentioned in the middle school textbook that year. (To be continued......)
