If you really want to incriminate yourself, you can just take the corpse of a Tang Dynasty person and say it was killed by the Japanese. You can't refute it, but you can also seize a few Japanese and coerce them into admitting that they were the ones who killed them. You can even say that they were killed by them.
Killed by the Emperor's order...
Anyway, now Abe Hirafu no longer wants to investigate whether what Fang Jun said is true. As long as Tang Jun really wants to find an excuse to stay on Sado Island, there must have been witnesses and physical evidence, and the Japanese country does not want to admit it.
Will not work.
what is this?
Bullies don’t bully like this, right?
The mere sight of Sado Island didn't worry him. What really made him angry and scared was what if the Tang people were as shameless as the Marquis in front of him and took a fancy to the Japanese country and threw a body there and said it was owned by the Japanese.
Kill, and then send troops to attack and occupy the territory...
Then wouldn’t the Japanese country be destroyed?
In the end, His Majesty the Emperor may have to move to the land of the Tang Dynasty...
But he really didn't dare to go to war with the Tang Dynasty.
Not only did he not dare, not even the emperor dared.
Although the Japanese country is isolated in Japan, there are not a few domestic merchants. These merchants travel to Tang Dynasty, Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje, Nanyang and other countries, and constantly transmit news from the outside world. How did the Tang Dynasty Navy go on a killing spree in Linyi Kingdom?
Supporting the nobles of Linyi State to kill all the original royal family, the news has long spread throughout the Japanese country.
Only countries like Goguryeo, which had resisted the Sui Dynasty's millions of troops, had the courage to go to war with the Tang Dynasty. The Japanese would never dare to do so, especially with the crazy rise of the Tang navy, even those who originally wanted to go to war with the Tang Dynasty
I no longer have any intention of secretly gaining some advantage behind Goguryeo...
Datang is a fierce tiger that cannot be messed with.
However, now that he did not provoke the tiger, the tiger came to his door...
Abebirov could only grit his teeth and hold back his anger, and asked: "I wonder how much compensation the Marquis said? His Majesty the Emperor must never apologize. He can increase the amount of compensation as appropriate."
It is absolutely impossible for His Majesty the Emperor to apologize. Even if Asukakyo is occupied by the Tang army, he will never apologize. That would damage the majesty of the Emperor. The Emperor is a god, how can he condescend to apologize to a mortal?
The worst that can be done is to pay more compensation. I think the ultimate goal of the Marquis in front of me is just to blackmail a sum of money. It can not only save the face of the Tang Dynasty people who were tortured and killed, but also take the opportunity to line their own pockets and make a lot of money...
…
If only one Tang Dynasty person died, even if ten people died, how much would it be worth?
Even if the Marquis wanted to make a lot of money, it didn't matter. After all, he got caught this time and it was all about losing money.
Fang Jun frowned slightly and asked, "Can you make the decision?"
Abehirov said: "Naturally."
He is a confidant of Emperor Kogi and has a very close relationship with Prince Katsuragi. If such a critical matter is decided at the moment, he will definitely get the permission and affirmation of the royal family.
Fang Jun nodded and said: "Very good, there are eight people from the Tang Dynasty who were tortured and killed, and no one has paid 10,000 yuan in compensation. Is there any problem?"
Accidents and diseases are inevitable when going to sea. There is always a high probability of death in a ship with more than ten thousand people. This time eight soldiers died when going to sea. However, in order to prevent the corpses from rotting and causing plague, sea burials have already been carried out.
After that, eight corpses among the Japanese and Eni people were transferred and put into Tang army uniforms.
If we can blackmail a sum of compensation, it can be regarded as a small compensation for these eight families...
Abe Hirafu was a little distressed, 80,000 guan... The coins of the Tang Dynasty were widely circulated in the Japanese country, and because of their good quality and exquisite production, they were deeply loved by the nobles. 80,000 guan is almost equivalent to half a year's land rent in the country of Yue. If
Armed with it, the army can be equipped with eight thousand people...
But who said the Tang people had big fists?
I can only swallow my anger and say: "No problem! I will have someone send the money tomorrow..."
"wait!"
Fang Jun interrupted Abe Hirafu and said: "This is just compensation for the dead Tang people. Do you think that's the end?"
Abehirov was dumbfounded: "It's not over yet?"
Fang Jun said angrily: "Nonsense! Just because you Japanese killed innocent people indiscriminately, more than a hundred warships of the Navy stayed on Sado Island. The ships were worn out by people eating horses and chewing horses. They even delayed their trip to the Ryuki Kingdom to submit the credentials of His Majesty the Emperor.
And later return to the East China Sea to escort our country’s merchant ships...this lump sum is not money?"
Abebirov felt dizzy...
Can all these be blamed on the Japanese country?
Why the hell no one invited you here!
But he has learned his lesson. The young and temperamental Marquis in front of him is not a good person. He will start a fight without saying a few words. What if this person is really a ruthless person and starts a fight in anger...
Wouldn’t he be the sinner who provoked the war between Tang and Japan?
I'm afraid that by that time, no matter whether the Japanese nation wins or fails, the emperor's first decision is to kill him so that he can have an explanation to all the noble kings...
Abebirov cannot bear this responsibility.
He could only grit his teeth and ask: "How much compensation do you think the compensation would be, Your Majesty the Marquis?"
Fang Jun pulled his fingers and began to settle the accounts for Abebirov: "Food for tens of thousands of people costs 1,800 guan per day. If you pay the compensation one day later, we will have to stay one more day, and the food expenses will increase.
There will still be people here who get sick due to acclimatization, so they have to spend money to buy medicine, right? Your Japanese country's medical level is not good, so you have to send medicine from the Tang Dynasty. It's thousands of miles away, and each delivery is only three to five thousand guan, right?
?This does not include those who died due to illness. If they died, they would be compensated even more... Your Yue country also has warships, right? These things cost the most money. It is okay to sail near seas. If the navy of the Tang Dynasty sails across the ocean, the warships
The ship's maintenance and upkeep is essential, as well as the repair of the sails. I'm afraid this trip will cost a hundred and eighty thousand yuan..."
On his side, blah blah blah, finger by finger, Abebirov almost collapsed.
It can be seen that without three to five million yuan, the Marquis will definitely not leave.
Three to five hundred thousand dollars!
Oh my gosh, how much does that cost?
Even if he is a dignified national guardian, it is impossible for him to spend so much money at once.
Never seen it before!
Do you think the Japanese country is as wealthy as your Tang Dynasty?
You don't even know if your hair is full or not, how do you know how much it costs?
Dare the lion open his mouth!
He was about to refute and argue, but Fang Jun hadn't finished speaking yet...
"...Don't think that these are enough. To tell you the truth, I don't care about any of this! What I care about is the reputation of the Tang Dynasty and the power of the Tang Dynasty! Tell me, if you are not severely punished, what will happen in the future?
Goguryeo and Baekje also followed the same example. They did not treat the Tang people as human beings, and they captured and killed them whenever they wanted. Where is the power of the Tang Dynasty, and where is the majesty of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty? The majesty of the empire is priceless!"
Abehirov no longer knew what to say, so he could only subconsciously ask: "Your Excellency, Marquis, you have said so much... Can you give an accurate figure on how much compensation is required before the Datang Navy is willing to withdraw its troops?"
Fang Jun sat there, looking distressed, and reprimanded: "Is there something wrong with your brain? Didn't I tell you that majesty is priceless! Of course, you must not know about the enslavement and murder of the Tang people, General.
His Majesty the Emperor must be even less aware of it, it’s all the underground people who are doing whatever they want..."
Abehirov nodded repeatedly: "It's official, I really don't know..."
"It's over if you don't know? Now that the person is dead, the impact has already occurred, and the surrounding countries are watching. If something is not handled properly, others will follow suit, and the dignity of the Tang Dynasty will be lost!"
Abebirov was about to cry: "Your Excellency, Marquis, what do you want?"
He was really convinced. The Marquis opened his mouth and started talking loudly. He couldn't keep up...
Fang Jun said: "It's very simple, there are two ways."
Abebirov said quickly: "Please give me your permission, the Marquis."
"Either, compensation of one million yuan... Don't say anything yet, don't think it's too much. Not to mention the loss of military expenses, it will definitely not be less than this price. The most important thing is the majesty of the Tang Dynasty! The majesty value of the Tang Dynasty
How much is it? Priceless! You have already taken advantage."
Fang Jun is confident and confident.
Abebirov was crestfallen: "To be honest, this money... not only can I not get it, not even His Majesty the Emperor can get it."
Although the emperor is the lord of the Japanese country, in fact, the Japanese country has numerous vassals, most of which are independent. Only when something big happens, such as a war, will they respond to the emperor's call. After the war is won, they still have to compete for the spoils. Most of the time, the emperor's
Orders don’t work at all, let alone asking everyone to pay?
The only place that can be controlled by the emperor is as big as Yamato. The annual tax revenue is only three to five million guan. Officials need salaries, the army needs military expenses, the palace needs maintenance, ministers need rewards, and most importantly, the emperor also needs to eat...
...I will pay you all and let the emperor starve to death?
So this is absolutely impossible.
Abebirov asked tentatively: "What is the second way?"
