Chapter 474: Overseas Wa Kingdom
Smoke broke out everywhere in the Great Song Dynasty, and wars continued.
The number of people who have fled or directed them has increased dramatically. Jeju Chaojiazhuang is on the verge of saturation and can only expand its territory overseas.
The Wa Kingdom became the first target.
Although the island countries are relatively backward, they have a population of two or three million. The Chaojia army invaded in an all-out way, and the troops invested could not be less, and the preparations should also be sufficient. For example, the blockade of the sea area and the strict prohibition of leakage of rumors must be considered.
Since last year, whether it is the large-scale procurement of food and supplies, or the unremitting training of the army, it is to prepare for a major war overseas.
Grain is constantly being transported to Jeju Island for stockpiling.
Pigs and sheep are slaughtered to make jerky, and all kinds of vegetables are made into canned food. Lumpy dry food made from sugar cane syrup mixed with peanut kernels and sesame seeds......
According to Chao Gai's suggestion, the garment yard sewed summer combat uniforms and light coats for the war. Tai Hospital hurriedly prepared the ointment based on Jinchuang Medicine. Stock up on gauze, medical supplies for alcohol, and teach apprentices......
In fact, all departments of Chaojiazhuang have been preparing, but few people know about it.
In April and May, after more than half a year of training.
In addition to the cavalry, the Guards were the first to skillfully use the mandarin duck formation. The elite drawn from the various armies returned, followed by the infantry, and finally the more or less familiar mandarin duck formation of the naval army.
Army divisions and regiments took turns to go to the Laizhou Naval Base and Judao for military training. Avoid seasickness and adapt to the marine environment in advance.
The 1st and 2nd Divisions of the Guards led by Pohan 5 were the first to arrive on Tsushima Island.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, when the Japanese invaded Jeju Island, Chao Gai was angry and retaliated.
At the end of March, Xiaoguan Suo Li Bao lived up to his trust. Tsushima Island was raided one night, and none of the hundreds of Japanese stationed there escaped. Without exception, they were either killed on the spot or sent to Goryeo as slaves.
Today's Tsushima Island, as well as being built as a forward base.
With hundreds of thousands of stone of grain and various materials hoarded, the officers and men of the Guards were the first to experience the warm and rainy climate, and at the end of May, each of the three infantry corps sent a division to the island to garrison it.
On Tsushima, operatives have been lurking and joining up with large forces. The Einsatzgruppen operates behind enemy lines and has some knowledge of the situation in the Wa Kingdom.
The Japanese people are ignorant and backward, short in stature, and not well fed and clothed. It is rumored that in the pre-Qin period, Xu Fu led the boys and girls to arrive, taught the indigenous knowledge here, farming, and the rudiments of civilization took shape.
To this day, there are people in the temples on the island to worship Xu Fu!
In 710 A.D., Emperor Yuanmei moved the capital to Heijojing, and the Wa Kingdom entered the Nara period, and on the basis of the Tang Dynasty, combined with its national conditions, a relatively complete Japanese legal system was established. Water conservancy was gradually built, and the population increased.
Slowly, in the 12th century.
It was also during this period that the legal system of the state became more and more mature. In terms of identity system, they imitated the good untouchables of the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the boundaries between the good and untouchables were clear and they were not allowed to intermarry. On the whole, good citizens are the main part of the members of society, and untouchables account for about one-tenth and there is a trend of gradual decline.
The largest number of people, the territory of the Yamato regime also gradually expanded at this time, conquering parts of the Tohoku region and southern Kyushu. At present, the Japanese state is basically unified, only because of the chaotic internal problems, and the domestic situation is chaotic.
Knowing this situation, the Chao family army is even more ready to send troops overseas! When the total carrying capacity of the three fleets exceeded one million, the opportunity had come.
Most of the Chao family's army will be put into overseas battlefields.
According to the war plan, all armies must be put into the battlefield to be sharpened.
Chaojiazhuang military division Wu Yong was in charge, and Liangshan Island was dispatched by Zhu Wu in the center.
Chaojiazhuang has entered a state of first-level combat readiness, and in the Great Song Dynasty, it will focus on defense, except for business and necessary military operations, and try to reduce the sense of presence.
Huazi, Hu Sanniang, and Yelu Tali looked at the three cute little babies and wanted children. For the sake of overseas wars, they have extinguished their thoughts.
Chao Gai estimated that it would take two or three months or even longer to go, and while he was still in Chaojiazhuang, he tried to accompany Li Qingzhao's sisters, Master Li's mother and son.
Even if you don't give up, there will be times when you want to separate!
In mid-June, Chao Gai led Shenwuwei to board a ship and go to sea.
……
The current supreme ruler of the Wa Kingdom is Emperor Toba.
Emperor Toba (Japanese: とばてんのう; February 24, 1103 – July 20, 1156) was the 74th Emperor of Japan. (reigned August 9, 1107 – February 25, 1123), the second son of the Empress Dowager. The eldest grandson of Emperor Shirakawa Sadahito, and the eldest son of Emperor Horikawa Zenhito.
In other words, the other bird emperor Chao Gai may not know about it, but this one is more famous. This is a tragic character! Her mother, Fujiwara Hiroko, died shortly after she was born, and she was raised by her grandfather, Emperor Shirakawa. He was made crown prince 7 months after his birth. After the death of his father, Emperor Horikawa, the 5-year-old Emperor Toba ascended the throne, and all government affairs were managed by Emperor Shirakawa.
In the 5th year of Eternity (1117), he married the adopted daughter of Emperor Shirakawa, Fujiwara Shoko (to be Kenmonin) and established it as a middle palace, and the following year he gave birth to five boys and two girls with the middle palace. On January 23, 1123, under the auspices of Emperor Shirakawa, Emperor Toba was forced to give the throne to Emperor Shotoku, the eldest son born to the temple of the Emperor, and the real power was still in the hands of Emperor Shirakawa.
Toba became the Emperor of Toba. Emperor Shirakawa continued to interfere in the politics of the imperial court. As a result, in the history of Japan, there was a peculiar phenomenon of the three emperors of the Emperor, the Emperor, and the Emperor of France, and now it is 1116 A.D., when the struggle for power and profit is the most intense, the government decrees are not compatible, and the country is in chaos.
Similar to the collapse of the court at the end of the Ming Dynasty!
"I tell you, the pirates are greedy, tyrannical and cruel. And he is extremely inappropriate in his private life, saying that the marriage of close relatives guarantees blood. And this time Emperor Toba's wife is very beautiful, and his grandfather took a fancy to her. This kid is not lonely, he is messing around with his grandfather and woman......"
Chao Gai really knew that this Birdfeather Emperor, similar to Li Mao of the Tang Dynasty, was robbed of Yang Yuhuan by Tang Xuanzong Li Longji, who was bored in the army back then, and made fun of these things, if you want to live a decent life, you have to be a little green on your head. It was also at that time that I knew a little about Emperor Toba.
On the Mulan boat, Chao Gai felt the sea breeze, looked at the dense boats around him, and talked about the murderous things of the Japanese robbers. Although during this period, the Japanese rarely showed their fangs and invaded the borders of the Song Dynasty to raid. But there is, and it does not prevent him from changing the tragic war situation in later generations as the attack of the Japanese in the previous dynasty, burning, killing and looting, doing all kinds of evil, and it is very bad!
The military advisers Xu Guanzhong, Hu Sanniang, Yutai and other generals around him, all of them frowned, or cursed this shameless nation in a low voice. Huazi, Hu Sanniang and other female generals blushed and scolded the most fiercely.
Japan has a temperate and subtropical monsoon climate, with hot and rainy summers and cold and dry winters, with four distinct seasons, many earthquakes, and many hurricanes.
Especially in the summer, this is very common!
Everyone was aroused by Chao Gai, scolding and scolding on the boat, before the sky was clear, and suddenly the dark clouds rolled and the wind howled.
Knowing that it was going to rain again, everyone cursed and returned to the cabin. Sure enough, with the wet and salty sea breeze, it was raining more and more, but the wind was not in a hurry, and the sailor put on a special coat.
The flotilla is still sailing.
Half an hour later, the clouds had ceased and the sun was shining on the deck again. This phenomenon has been very common since it came to the sea, almost every day.
Nothing more than being unpleasant.
And every time the rain passes and the weather is fine, the net fishing will be fruitful. The fleet stopped in the Bohai Sea for three or two days before arriving at the forward base, Tsushima.
You can see that the port has been built, and farmers come and go to carry grain.
Han Shizhong had already led the guards to land on the island first.
At present, three infantry divisions are left to garrison, and follow-up troops are arriving one after another.
After learning about the situation, Chao Gai took a short rest here, and then followed the fleet carrying food and weapons to Hokkaido, where he met the righteous people there.
Ainu (Ainu language: Ai
U, Kuyi), is an indigenous ethnic group in the northern part of the Wa Kingdom, or translated as Ainu, Ainu, and Ayinu (Yuan Dynasty, Ming Dynasty: Guwei, Kuyi, and Kuye), and are the indigenous people who live in Sakhalin and Hokkaido, the Kuril Islands, and Kamchatka.
Similar to the Chinese mountain peoples, they were called uncivilized Mao people in the Wa Kingdom. At present, more than 200,000 people live in the deep mountains and old forests, and in later generations, after the genocide, only a few tens of thousands survived.
These people were oppressed and exploited by the Yamato national regime, like serfs. Chao Gai absorbed refugees, just saved an Ainu who escaped racial pursuit, and also returned to Chao Gai, acting as a bridge of communication between the two sides.
Under the joint operation of the Einsatzgruppen and Skynet, the whole family took refuge. It has successively undergone reorganized training and weaponry, and has a contingent of tens of thousands of people. Form an army of rebels and prepare to take revenge and take home the garden!
Approaching the end of May! At night, the mighty fleet sailed into the boundary of the Soya Strait. Passing through Sakhalin Island, this is an indigenous territory where the Chao family army is stationed.
The fleet docked at the dock of the island, and the large group of people on the shore included the generals of the advance team such as Po Han Wu Han Shizhong and Tiefu Tu Han Yong, as well as the natives of the island.
The reason why it is called a hairy man by the Yamato people is because he has animal skins on his body, his hair is scattered, and his body hair is thick, and he looks like a savage. It's just that some of the people at the front are draped all over their bodies and their hair is combed.
Except for being slightly shorter, a bit like a Tibetan person.
Greeted by these people, Chao Gai led the team to set foot on the island for the first time. It indicates a change in the pattern of the island, and also indicates that a major war is about to break out.
Chao Gai, dressed in military uniform, greeted the generals and met with the indigenous leaders. With a translation in a half-baked indigenous dialect, communication is not a problem. It means that the Ainu people will not encounter any discrimination, enjoy the same treatment as the people of the Great Song Dynasty, help each other, and create brilliance together.
These oppressed natives were grateful and invited Chao Gai to visit. Chao Gai and his team happily went, worried about their living conditions. It depends on hunting and gathering wild fruits, and fishing for a living, with little cultivation and difficult conditions. Hungry and cold, and facing exploitation, the number is getting smaller and smaller.
Fortunately, a steady stream of food and supplies has been delivered, and the lives of the Ainu have greatly improved. Last winter, not a single person froze to death and starved to death, to the gratitude of the natives. They train extremely hard and are willing to lead the charge!
