Liu Yu felt a shiver in his heart. Indeed, his thoughts just now were somewhat influenced by the cognition of later generations and lacked basic objectivity and rationality. In this era, after all, the Japanese country was not the Japanese that caused serious disasters to China in later generations.
* is a powerful country, but Goguryeo is a small tyrant that has grown from a small tribe to dominate the Northeast. If he helps them destroy Baekje and Silla and unify the peninsula, then maybe he supported Tuoba Si to take the throne.
, so that the past events of becoming the great enemy of the Northern Wei Dynasty will be experienced again.
Liu Yu thought of this and said seriously: "Fat man, you are right, I was a little too impulsive just now. I don't know why, I hate the Japanese country and the Japanese people very much. I always want to find opportunities to destroy them, which affects my judgment."
Liu Muzhi curled his lips: "The Japanese are indeed hateful, no matter whether they are really descendants of Wuyue as he said, or there are other rumors that they are the three thousand children brought by Xu Fu, the alchemist of the Qin Dynasty, when he went to sea.
Descendants of boys and girls, but in any case, on a big island, they slowly rose from a small tribe to dominate, and now they are looking to unify the big island, and even sent troops to the Korean Peninsula to seize iron tools, which also shows their ambitions
, like Goguryeo, this is an aggressive country. If it can be eliminated, it is best to eliminate it and don't give them a chance. However, now is not the time to consider this."
Liu Yu frowned: "In your opinion, if we want to help Baekje, do we have to make friends with Japan first?"
Liu Muzhi pondered for a moment and said: "In my opinion, it is best not to help each other and let them fight on their own. Goguryeo can at least give us war horses, but Baekje and Japan don't have anything we need.
Letting them restrain each other and fight for a long time like this is the best choice. After we succeed in the Northern Expedition and expel the Northern Wei Dynasty from Hebei, we can consider destroying the Northern Yan. By then, when we are bordering Goguryeo, we can consider officially going to war with them.
I have fallen out, but it will probably take many years to realize this plan. It is hard to say whether we will see this one day."
Liu Yu's frown deepened: "Then we don't want the war horses promised by Goguryeo? Moreover, Alan and Heipao have mentioned the curse of the holy tree in the hometown of Dragon City many times. I think it is not groundless. Maybe this has something to do with it.
It is related to the conspiracy of the Tiandao Alliance. One day, we still have to seize Dragon City and go to the place where the Murong tribe arose to see these things."
Liu Muzhi said calmly: "There are many ways to obtain war horses. It doesn't have to be obtained from Goguryeo. Even if you don't help them conquer Baekje, you can also obtain it through trade. Besides, if you really want to fight with Baekje and Japan
If a war breaks out, Baekje and Japan will definitely send out fleets to block the sea routes. Even if our army successfully lands on the Korean Peninsula, it is still unknown whether we can transport the war horses back from the peninsula in the future."
Speaking of this, Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "The best way is not to help the two countries, but to send envoys to advise them to value peace and not to start a war. At the same time, they severely reprimand Baekje and not accept the Japanese as their suzerain.
Otherwise, we will go to aid Goguryeo, and even send troops. As long as we can prevent the Japanese from sending troops to help Baekje for the time being, then we have an explanation for Goguryeo, and they will also provide us with war horses for this purpose."
"While Baekje is still surrendering to us, it does not dare to openly attack Goguryeo's merchant fleet coming and going from us. At most, we can give Baekje a little sweetness and give them some supplies from the Central Plains as rewards. In this way, we can fight against Goguryeo and Baekje at the same time.
To establish trade relations with the economy, neither offend nor help each other, they will rush to please us. In this way, we can stabilize the two powerful vassal countries without sending a single soldier and get what we need from them.
Why not do something like that?"
Liu Yu smiled and rubbed his hands: "Fat man, you still have a way. This sounds like the best solution. Let's arrange it like this, reply to Gao Yunyan, and then arrange for her to go to Jiankang."
A cold light flashed in Liu Muzhi's eyes: "No, Ji Nu, I don't think it's appropriate to go to Jiankang for this matter. Let everyone know at the court meeting that Gao Yunyan came here just for a secret appointment, so he came first
Seeing us, we might as well give her a sweetener and agree to send envoys to Baekje to force Baekje to sever relations with the Japanese country first. In return, they need to provide us with the supplies we urgently need."
Liu Yu frowned: "Will Baekje accept such conditions?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "I don't say they will definitely accept it, but at least they will consider it, because the current Japanese country is also a big threat to Baekje. As the saying goes, it is easy to ask the gods to send them away, but it is difficult to send them away. The Japanese country sends troops once
, helped them defeat Silla, but Baekje did not gain any territory. The seven cities of Kaja that they captured became colonies of the Japanese state. Every year, they had to pay a large amount of iron tools to the Japanese state as a thank-you gift for the war. For them, if things go on like this,
, it’s also unbearable.”
"What's more, the Japanese soldiers were tyrannical in the seven cities of Kaja, committing all kinds of crimes, including rape and robbery. Baekje officials were unable to restrain them at all. If it weren't for the threat of invasion from Goguryeo, I'm afraid they would have sent troops to drive away these Japanese soldiers.
Therefore, if we can show the interests of Goguryeo and prevent them from attacking Baekje in an all-out way for the time being, and first stabilize the territory they occupy before making further plans, then it is possible for Baekje to break off diplomatic relations with Japan."
Liu Yu laughed: "Can Goguryeo endure it? Hasn't Gao Yunyan's father been fighting everywhere since he came to the throne and never stopped fighting?"
Liu Muzhi said calmly: "We were defeated by the Japanese army last time. Otherwise, why would they come to us? We can tell him that the troops of Jin Dynasty still have to put down the demon thief rebellion, and they won't be able to spare time for a while.
Send a large army to assist, but first send envoys to force Baekje to sever diplomatic relations with the Japanese. If this is done, then they can defeat Baekje without the help of the Japanese army. Isn't this just subjugating the enemy without fighting?"
Liu Yu nodded: "That's a good excuse. In order to show sincerity, do we need them to provide one or two thousand war horses first, to open up the channel, and secondly to see if Goguryeo is sincere?"
The fat on Liu Muzhi's face jumped: "The Goguryeo supplies we need most now are not war horses, but ginseng. To cure this plague, a large amount of ginseng is required!"
Liu Yu's eyes widened: "Ginseng? Are you sure that the plague caused by this poisonous insect can be cured with ginseng?"
Liu Muzhi nodded seriously: "Ginseng itself cannot cure this disease, but ginseng can replenish qi and activate blood circulation, which greatly improves the body's ability to fight various diseases. If there are several thousand kilograms of ginseng, all soldiers can take it.
Tang, this condition will surely be cured within three months. We need to discuss this with Gao Yunyan."
