Chapter 1042: Fusang in the Tang Dynasty

Fuso Fukaeura (Nagasaki)

It is currently one of the most active ports in the entire Fuso maritime trade.

Most of the ships set sail from here to some ports in Silla, and some of the brave ones were able to reach the coast of Datang, of course, this route was more risky, because their ships were only about ten meters long, and even when the wind and waves were calm, it would take more than half a month to arrive.

If you are unlucky and encounter strong winds and waves at sea, then this day will be even more bitter, and when the time comes, not to mention that you can make some money and come back, it is possible to capsize the ship directly.

Because there are many people in Fusang and few places, most of the coastal residents live by the sea, of course, the profits of overseas trade in this era have not yet appeared, otherwise the people of Datang would have done this a long time ago, and most of the people are fishing in the coastal areas to live.

Of course, in the past few years, because of the war on the Silla Peninsula, many people have gone from Silla Baekje to Fuso, and they are all people who originally fought against the Tang Dynasty, so when the Tang Dynasty occupied this area, their life can be imagined.

So at the last moment, these people had to flee overseas even if they fought for their lives, and Fusang was chosen by these people as the first object because of its geographical advantages, because of his arrival, which also led to a wave of prosperity in the coastal areas of Fusang.

These people who came were already disgusted with Datang, and the Fusang people were not a good thing, so these people began to have a new idea, that is, to send certain ships to the coastal areas of Datang, because they knew that the defense of the coastal areas of Datang was weak, and the ships of the naval division were basically destroyed, so as long as they planned properly, they could also loot a batch of materials in the coastal areas of Datang.

The Fusang people were very respectful of the Tang Dynasty at this time, and when they heard about the ideas of these Silla people, they all rejected it in every way, but seeing the Silla people transporting things back one after another, this completely stimulated the bandit genes in the minds of these Fuso people.

So they began to attack the Datang coast one after another, but because the boats were too bad, and they didn't know the direction of the ocean wind here, they could only come back three of the ten boats that went out, and the rest of the people were all fed in the sea.

But even so, the Fuso people also think that this is a good deal, at least to make their lives a little better, and they all understand this truth when they are rich and dangerous, if there is no danger at all, then isn't everyone rich?

Today, a few ships came back from the Datang coast, the ships were full of all kinds of materials, although there were not many more expensive materials, most of them were some daily necessities, but as long as they were sold locally, these people on the ship would be divided a little, then they would be able to live the life of a landlord in this life.

Now this is the embryonic stage of a pirate, many people in the inland area don't know, Li Xiang chose to attack Fusang at this time, in fact, the choice is very correct, once such a harvest is spread by them, then these guys will organize coastal robbery teams, and then the Ming Dynasty will only appear in the Ming Dynasty, it is very likely that it will appear in the Tang Dynasty.

This may be the butterfly effect of Li Xiang's rebirth, if the Tang army did not occupy Silla, then this group of Silla people would not have moved to Fuso, and now they are staying in Fusang, and they have such a ghost idea, which also makes the people in the coastal areas of the Tang Dynasty suffer a lot of losses, but after Li Xiang returned to Beijing this time, the coastal areas have strengthened their defenses, so this time the harvest of these Fusang people is not very good.

"Didn't you go twelve boats? Why is it that only one of you has come back? ”

An old man who was unloading the cargo said suspiciously, everyone knows that life at sea is not very good, so there are not many people who come back, but if more than a dozen ships come back to one, will the rest of the people die? That's a high mortality rate.

"Don't mention it, there was a storm on the road, half of the people went directly into it, and when we landed, we happened to run into the local army of Datang, and I don't know what was going on, there was no one there to ambush there before, this time it was actually targeted, we worked hard to grab a small village, so we had this boat of food, and the rest of the people ......"

The luck of the people on this ship is also relatively good, and the way back is all calm, but if there is a little wind and waves, with their heavy load state, it is very likely that the boat will capsize directly, as for the other people, they may have been killed by the Tang army at this moment.

According to the practice of the Tang army, when they found pirates attacking the coast, they would immediately tie up these people, and then tie them to the stakes on the seaside, so that these people would starve to death, and some people would shout at the sea at the end, and the Tang army also used this way to tell the pirates at sea, if you dare to come, this is the result.

There were a lot of people gathered in the port, no matter how many people died, they saw the money in the captain's hand at this moment, a shipload of food and all kinds of supplies, in exchange for a lot of money, enough for them to live the rest of their lives.

As for those who died, it was due to their bad luck, everyone thought that they were the chosen ones, so many people also had Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts, whether to go back to contact a group of people, and then also go to the coastal area of Datang, now Datang is very rich, I heard that the people eat white rice every day.

"Did you steal all this food from the homes of the common people? Is their life good? ”

Some good people have already started to ask here, and everyone who comes back from Datang is like a star, and there are many people around.

"It's much better than our life, let's fish outside all day, that is, get back two or three small fish, just this fish soup to survive today, every family has their own food, at least one dry food a day."

When these pirates finished speaking, these people present were dumbfounded, you must know that they can eat three or five meals of dry food a month, which is already quite an easy thing, the people of Datang can already eat one meal a day, no wonder every time someone goes over, there will be a harvest.

"Datang is really rich!"

Some people look at the West and are already full of worship, and they also want to become the common people of the Tang Dynasty, but it is a pity that they are separated by such a far sea......
