Chapter 968: Supporting the Li and Tang regime

"Generalissimo, madam," Sugawara said, "Actually, yesterday we sent a letter to Tsuruta Castle asking them to send troops to support us.

Calculating the time, we can reach Shikoku Castle tonight at the fastest, or tomorrow morning at the slowest. Therefore, I suggest that the Generalissimo leave the city now. If we meet on the road, we can eliminate the opponent and take away some of the opponent's strength."

Hong Fu Nu said in surprise: "You have actually sent people to Tsuruta City? We only have two hundred people, is it necessary?"

Sugawara smiled bitterly and said: "Madam, you only used two hundred people to change the owner of Shikoku City and completely control Shikoku City. Do you think it is necessary?"

The red-flecked girl smiled coquettishly, not wanting to explain.

Sugawaraue continued: "Actually, at that time we were thinking of letting the Tsuruta family send troops to deal with Madam. Once we succeeded, we would blame Oda Ichiro.

Even if the Tang Dynasty court was angry, it would only direct its anger at Oda Ichiro."

"What a good plan. In this way, you Fuso will have nothing to do, and you can even help the court to eliminate Ichiro Oda. In the end, Datang and Fuso have become a country of brothers. The court will almost always agree to whatever you want." Hongfu Nu said.

"Madam, you deserve the prize, but we still lost. I have a hunch that the Fuso Kingdom will face a disaster."

"Actually, the ancestors of the Fusang Kingdom are also from the Tang Dynasty. This matter can be traced back to the Qin Dynasty. At that time, after Qin Shihuang unified the world, he wanted to be immortal. Then he was anxious to make elixirs and refine the elixirs of immortality, but they all failed.

Already.

Immediately, the First Emperor killed all the alchemists. At that time, one of the alchemists told the First Emperor that there was a Penglai Island in the East China Sea, and he was willing to lead three thousand boys and girls there.

The First Emperor agreed, and this person was Xu Fu.

After Xu Fu led three thousand boys and girls to the sea, they did not reach the so-called Penglai Island, but arrived at Fusang.

In other words, Fusang Kingdom is made up of three thousand boys and girls. After thousands of years of development, it has achieved today's results." Hong Fu Nu briefly told the story prepared by Li Feng.

"Madam, you need to provide evidence when you say this."

"This evidence should be in the hands of Emperor Kogi." Hong Funu said.

"Okay, I hope Madam can show me the evidence one day."

"No problem." Hongfu Nu nodded and said, "But now you should follow the generalissimo out of the city to attack Tsuruta City."

"Yes." Sugawara said.

Li Derjian said: "Mom, why not let the army rest for a while? They have been traveling for a day and a night."

Hongfunu almost forgot about this and said: "I almost forgot, the food has been prepared for everyone. Sugawara, you and the general can go together and we will set off tomorrow."

"yes."

After a night's rest, the Tang army regained its energy and morale. At the same time, the scouts sent by Hongfunu to investigate Tsuruta Castle and Oda Castle the day before yesterday also returned.

Li Derjian and Hong Funu were already standing in front of the military camp. The army had already assembled, waiting for news from the scouts.

The two scouts arrived at the military camp almost at the same time, and immediately came to Li Derjian and Hongfu Nu.

"See Marshal, madam."

"No need to be polite," Li Derjian said.

"Thank you, Marshal."

Li Derjian asked: "How is Oda Castle?"

A scout said: "Oda City has now entered a state of preparation for war, and the whole city has no way in or out."

"Where is Tsuruta City and his troops?" Li Derjian asked.

Another scout clasped his fists and replied: "Reporting to the marshal, two thousand troops were dispatched from Tsuruta City, including five hundred cavalry.

Currently, Tsuruta Castle has sent out a letter asking for help, but it was intercepted by a humble official. The letter is here."

The scout handed the letter to Li Derjian.

Li Derjian took the letter, opened it, and found that it was all written in Fusang script and could not be understood, so he handed it to the man wearing a bamboo hat next to him: "Sir, please help me read it."

This person is none other than Sugawara Ue. There is a layer of gauze wrapped around the bamboo hat, which completely covers his entire head, but does not affect his vision, nor does it affect his eating and other issues.

He took the letter, read it over, and said: "Marshal, the content of this letter is that Tsuruta Castle asks for help from Sakata Castle next to it.

There are currently 50,000 troops in Sakata Castle, which are the emperor's troops. They were originally intended to prevent Oda Ichiro from continuing to expand.

However, to prevent us now, Marshal, I suggest sending troops to attack Tsuruta Castle immediately.

After occupying Tsuruta Castle, we immediately announced that the new lord of the city was the Tang Dynasty Marquis Lantian, so that the Imperial Army in Sakata Castle would not dare to act rashly."

"Okay, I now order Hong Fu Nu to be the general, lead a thousand navy and ten hot air balloons to Oda Castle and occupy Oda Castle.

I personally led a thousand navy and ten hot air balloons to Hetian City to attack Hetian City." Li Feng said.

"Yes." All Tang troops responded at the same time.

Immediately, the army divided into two groups and set off from the north gate and the east gate.

Ichiro Matsumoto became the new lord of Shikoku Castle. His first order was to order the shops to open and the people to work, while continuing to distribute food.

Shikoku Castle has returned to its original appearance, and because of the free food distribution, Ichiro Matsumoto, the castle lord, is very popular among the people.

As for the Tang army and Tang people, they were no longer rejected and began to be accepted.

Immediately after the land, business and other policies came out, the people completely accepted the rule of the Tang Dynasty. Especially those people who did not have land, and those who had been farming land for landlords and aristocratic families, were extremely happy. These lands were

They are planting, but it is difficult for them to have enough food and clothing every year.

As a result, they began to hate those landlords and people from aristocratic families.

Now the city lord is willing to give them the land of the landlords and aristocratic families for free. Even if they cannot sell it, the food grown belongs to them. In addition to paying the food tax, the other harvests belong to them.

Everyone has land, even newly born children have land, men and women have land. This has made those who conceal their household registration or even prefer sons over daughters change their minds.

This method also promotes fertility. Everyone will try to have children, because if you have children, you will have land.

And they are willing to treat the elderly kindly, because they also have land. Even if they no longer have the energy to farm, they can rent it to others. They cannot sell it, but can rent it. This is one of the reasons why the people are happy.

Next came taxes. Matsumoto Ichiro abolished many meaningless taxes, especially poll taxes, labor taxes, etc.

There is also the abolition of slavery. There are no slaves in Shikoku City. This moved the slaves to death. It felt good to be free again.

They don't have to worry about starving to death, because there is food and land for them. Even if they are not satisfied with these, there is still work to do. The construction of Qiuri City requires a lot of people.

As soon as these policies came out, all the people began to support the Li and Tang regime.
