Chapter 437: Japan, you dont want to become like Silla, right?

The former Silla Royal Palace is now the Governor's Mansion on Girim Road.

As night fell, in the houses that were very simple for the Tang people, various officials were still working overtime, sorting out various regulations and rules, and summarizing all aspects of the new territory of the Tang Dynasty to the Eastern Capital.

King Jin Famin of Silla led his ministers to formally surrender, and the good news was sent back to Luoyang. This did not mean that the matter was over. On the contrary, a lot of comfort work was still to come.

How to truly transform the fruits of war victory into national benefits is often more difficult than winning a war.

Fortunately, Liu Rengui was originally the prime minister and was known as the "Scholar General". Under his command, the work was carried out in an orderly manner.

Among the people working overtime, Li Yan stood out.

What he is more concerned about is the gains from this war.

At this time, he put down the collected documents and sighed: "I am really poor!"

An Zhongjing also curled his lips on the opposite side: "This small country has been fighting for years and the domestic harvest is poor. It is really impoverished. How dare you provoke me, the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Yan said: "This is gambling on the fate of the country. If Silla successfully annexes the Ungjin Governor's Palace, divides the land of Goryeo, and unifies the Liaodong Peninsula, the national strength will be completely different. Now it is the result of losing the bet."

An Zhongjing frowned: "Even so, gold and silver here are calculated in 'cents', which is really a headache!"

Li Yan was also speechless.

Historically, Jin Famin presented an apology ceremony to the Tang Dynasty as follows: silver points, copper coins, 120 points of gold, 400 needles, 120 bezoars, 6 pieces of 40-liter cloth, and 60 pieces of 30-liter cloth.

The "cent" among them, according to the calculations of later generations, is that 10 cents is equal to 1 qian, and 10 qian is 1 tael. When converted, it is pitifully small. According to Jin Famin's attitude of begging for mercy at that time, it should not be intentional to give less, but Silla's genuine

I'm so poor that I can't afford to pay more.

Therefore, it is quite embarrassing to win such a poor place. The Tang Dynasty sent troops very smoothly this time. Silla had very few cities that resisted to the end and the number of soldiers lost was not large. It can be called a glorious victory. However, considering the food and grass supplies and the cost of luggage,

There are also the losses that these soldiers originally suffered from farming at home. Even with such a great victory, I am afraid they will still lose money.

The farming dynasty really can't afford to be hurt in a war.

Of course, not to mention the subsequent political impact, the current gains are more than that. For example, the Buddhist temples seen after entering the city are quite luxurious...

Just as he was thinking about it, Guo Yuanzhen, Jin Liangtu and Gong Siguang, who was flying on the grass, came in and saluted in unison: "Liu Lang!"

"Everybody sit down!"

Li Yan smiled and looked at Guo Yuanzhen: "How are the students from the second hall doing?"

Guo Yuanzhen said: "Thanks to Liulang's early preparation, they have studied a lot of the situation in Liaodong before, and now they are able to get started quickly."

Li Yandao: "It is very important to promote enlightenment. Even in Jisu Prefecture, everything cannot be kept intact, but the ideas of the Tang Dynasty must be spread. In this regard, Silla actually has an advantage, because both Chunqiu Gong and Jin Famin

If the emperor is pro-Tang Dynasty, the domestic atmosphere will be very good."

Guo Yuanzhen was a little disdainful: "I'm just learning to walk in Handan and imitating others."

Li Yan said sternly: "You can't think so. If you agree with this attitude, look at the Supi tribe in Tubo. Since they have retained their old customs, they still want to restore their country. Since Silla wants to become a king, it will

To guide them on the right track.”

Guo Yuanzhen reflected and immediately said: "I understand what Liulang meant."

The current subjugation of the country is only due to the political structure. When the Silla people lose all their traditional customs and fully implement the customs of the Tang Dynasty, then they will be completely subjugated.

Li Yan looked at Jin Liangtu again: "Liangtu, you have made great contributions in this battle. Without your mobilization, there would not be so many officials in Silla who would abandon the dark side and join the bright side. I will specifically ask Your Majesty to take credit for you!"

This is the significance of buying horse bones with thousands of gold. If it were not for the role model played by Jin Liangtu, the fifth-grade Feipao, the middle-level officials of Silla were dissatisfied with the suppression of the bone system, but they turned to the Tang Dynasty.

I also had some scruples in my heart. Now that I saw that he could be reused, compared to myself who couldn't be promoted despite his merits, I just chose to surrender.

Jin Liangtu even got his wish and was full of energy: "Without Liu Lang's promotion, how could I be where I am today? We will try our best to appease the Silla survivors and let them love the Tang Dynasty and become true Tang Dynasty people."

Li Yan nodded slightly. Once Silla was destroyed, Jin Liangtu's sensitivity to his past identity suddenly dropped a lot: "Then are you willing to stay in the Jilin Road Governor's Mansion?"

Jin Liangtu knew that he would have a greater chance of making meritorious deeds by staying now, so he was full of enthusiasm for work: "I am willing to stay!"

Li Yan said with satisfaction: "Okay, the requirements of the people at the bottom are very simple. They just need to live a life of food and clothing. After years of fighting here, it's time to recuperate."

Jin Liangtu clasped his fists: "Yes!"

Li Yan finally looked at Gong Siguang: "Siguang, the next task for the Gong Family Chamber of Commerce is quite heavy."

Gong Siguang became a little nervous: "Rokuro, you know what I am doing. Some things that are too difficult should not be left to me."

Li Yandao: "It's not too difficult. It's just that the internal guards received a message. After the fall of Silla, the major slave chambers took action and planned to rob a large number of Silla maids and bring them back to the high families for their enjoyment. Those Silla maids before were not from the Tang Dynasty. I

I can’t control it, if they take advantage of the chaos to rob Silla maids again and profit from it, then we need to investigate them carefully!"

Gong Siguang breathed a sigh of relief: "I understand, our Chamber of Commerce will definitely cooperate with the internal guards. Those slave traders really have no good ones. No matter how many they kill, it will not be unfair."

Others couldn't help but smile when they saw that he had also scolded them. Li Yan saw that he was still alive and flying on the grass in Liaodong, and felt that this person who specialized in selling pets should be able to make a fortune.

In any case, everyone has their own arrangements. Li Yan said solemnly: "The role of the aftermath is not to destroy the country, but also to be a longer battle. We must not take it lightly."

Everyone responded eagerly: "Yes!"

Guo Yuanzhen remembered something again: "Liu Lang, the Japanese envoy has repeatedly asked to see him. Do I want to see him?"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Li Yan raised his eyebrows: "The Japanese envoys came so quickly? It seems that they have been waiting for the victory of the war here... Their self-proclaimed

Is it Japan or Japan?"

Guo Yuanzhen burst out laughing: "What is Japan? How dare those little dwarfs call themselves this? Of course they still call themselves Japanese slaves."

Li Yan nodded slightly.

During the reign of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, the Japanese slave country paid tribute and congratulated him, and Guangwu gave him a seal and ribbon. From then on, it had a fixed title. The word "Japanese" did not have a derogatory meaning at first. It meant respect and obedience, and "wei" meant to follow. With the radical "human", it just happened.

He is an obedient person.

But now, because of the short and ugly appearance of the Japanese people, this word has been linked to the short and ugly appearance, and has become a word of contempt.

In history, the character "Zhou" for King Zhou may also be a similar situation. The possibility of King Zhou having a posthumous title is not high, because the Shang Dynasty did not have a posthumous title system in the standard sense. Zhou was originally the title of Emperor Xin, and was originally the title of Emperor Xin.

It doesn't have a derogatory meaning, but it has a cruel and unjust meaning because of King Zhou.

Since the word "Japanese" has become derogatory, the Japanese country is naturally unwilling to admit it. Just a few years ago, this country has officially changed its name to Japan, but this time the envoys sent still call themselves Japanese slaves.

An Zhongjing said: "I have also seen the little envoys. They have not been summoned recently. They are afraid that they will commit suicide. I don't know why they are so afraid."

Li Yan said with a smile: "This is actually Baekje's fault. When Baekje was in ruins, it went to Yamato Province, the capital of the Japanese state, to ask for help. What they said at that time was exaggerated. Silla relied on its own power and was not close to its neighbors. It attracted the Tang people and overthrew them.

Baekje, the king and his ministers are all prisoners, and they are not chewy."

Everyone didn't think anything when they heard the first words, but they were very helpless when they heard the last words. They all shook their heads and said: "'Slightly chewy' doesn't mean no one is left alive? Even the livestock were killed, and the Turks couldn't do that."

When something happens, no wonder Japan is so afraid."

Li Yandao: "Since the Baekje rebels wanted to ask for help from the Japanese country at that time, they naturally wanted to make the matter more serious. The Japanese country may not really believe it, but the relationship between this country and Baekje is very close, and there are many domestic

With few Buyeo and Sanhan people, we finally sent troops."

"Perhaps out of righteous indignation, or perhaps out of greed to seize the opportunity to occupy Liaodong, they actually sent reinforcements. Then they met General Liu, and the Battle of Baijiangkou broke out..."

"When we attacked Silla this time, our Tang army was still on guard against the Japanese invaders. As a result, the enemy was as quiet as if they didn't exist. We waited until Silla was destroyed before we immediately sent out envoys. It seems we were particularly worried about being implicated."

Only then did everyone understand, but they were not interested in that ghost place of Japan at all.

Silla was so poor, let alone the isolated island country overseas.

But this is really a wrong perception.

Japan's other resources are not very good, but its gold and silver minerals are quite good.

Especially silver. During the Ming Dynasty, China called Japan the "Silver Islands." During that period, Japan also launched a mineral exploration boom. Silver mines were discovered in many areas, making it one of the few silver-producing countries in the world. It is said that at that time, Japan

One-third of the silver in circulation was originally produced in Japan.

At the same time, there was a lot of gold. During the Song Dynasty in history, they began to import a large amount of placer gold from Japan, which is the kind of gold that is as fine as sand. Because during the Northern Song Dynasty, the Buddhist temples in Japan were so extravagant that they built a main hall with gold.

, the Chinese side looks at it with envy.

Of course, mineral resources are one thing, but how to get them is another. To destroy that country just for mining is probably not worth the gain. It would be too wasteful to use the function of Datang Lighthouse in this way. Li Yan's plan is still open

Immigration fees can be as low as 100 million points.

In view of this, Li Yan said to Guo Yuanzhen: "Yuanzhen, go see the messenger and hear how sincere he is in begging for mercy. If it's just empty words, show them Jin Famin's "Book of Begging for Sin".

, ask if you want to become like Silla.”

Guo Yuanzhen stood up and said: "Then I will go. I am afraid that if I go late, the Japanese envoy who no one wants to see will really commit suicide~"

Amid the laughter of the crowd, Li Yan ordered the inner guards again: "Bring Jin Famin here. I want to inquire about the whereabouts of a person, and formally advise His Majesty that the destruction of Silla should start from that person..."
