Chapter 202 Wife Dead and Child Missing
If the purpose of Wang Pang's trip was just to drive the Japanese slaves out of Goryeo, then Wang Pang had already accomplished that.
Wang Pang's words confused several people at the banquet. Zhe Kejun, Zhang Ping and others knew Wang Pang very well, and the young master would not do anything about his master's name. These people were determined to follow Wang Pang through life and death. I just wanted to do whatever the young master told me. These people drank wine as if it was a matter of course and stared at Li Enze, Xin Zan and Yeluasi.
Xin Zan lowered his head and looked at the wine glass in his hand. He recalled everything Wang Pang had done since he met Wang Pang. Wang Pang's preparedness and meticulous thinking were beyond the reach of ordinary people; The military discipline from Pyongyang to Goryeo and Tokyo was strict, and the Goryeo people who came along the way regarded the Bohai Navy as their savior. What Wang Pang said just now is not unreasonable. If such a large Liao army stayed in Goryeo for a few months, the food and supplies would be in danger. After the consumption is over, the morale of the army is slightly weakened, and all the previous efforts have been wasted.
But if Xin Zan and Yeluasi are now allowed to lead the team back to the Liao Kingdom and leave Wang Pang alone to lead the three thousand Song army to fight against the Wonu Kingdom, Xin Zan will also feel that things have not finished yet, and he feels sorry for the king. Pang Pang had taken care of the Liao army all the way. This kind of care was due to the fact that Wang Pang did not let these people fight in vain just because he led the Liao army instead of the Song army. Every step he made took the safety of the Liao army into consideration.
Xin Zan glanced at Yelu Asi. The two of them had also discussed this issue in private. As the civil and military leaders of the Liao Kingdom, they were full of respect for the commander-in-chief of the Song Dynasty. Now it was time for a showdown, although Wang Pang's words just now The Liao army was compared with the Japanese slaves, but the two were not obsessed with this.[
Xin Zan and Asi looked at each other and confirmed each other's ideas. Xin Zan said: "Wang Shilang, since the 30,000 Bo navy has been handed over to you, you are our commander-in-chief. We will do whatever you ask us to do."
Li Enze listened to Xin Zan's words and was even more impressed by Wang Pang. An official from the Song Dynasty actually mobilized the Liao army so well. His generals were loyal and brave. This man was indeed a rare handsome man at such a young age. Now If the Liao army withdraws and two groups attack the Japanese slaves, if the Japanese slaves take revenge on Goryeo and bring a large army to Goryeo, Goryeo will not be able to resist now.
According to Li Enze's understanding of Wang Pang, Wang Pangfei wants to negotiate terms again. Under the current situation, Wang Pang has to agree to whatever conditions Wang Pang puts forward, not to mention that Wang Pang never puts forward excessive conditions. Since the ministers of Liao State are like this Having expressed his stance, what else can the King of Goryeo say, who is now stooping to ask for help?
Li Enze smiled slightly: "Wang Shilang, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. As long as we, Korea, are not allowed to cede land and betray the country, we will find a way to repay the national debt we owe. If we, the Korean people, can resist the invasion of Japanese slaves, we will be able to slowly restore our national strength." .Now, there is only one last step left to stop the Japanese slaves from bullying me, Goryeo. Wang Shilang will not just give up and leave me alone."
The king looked around to see Xin Zan and Yelu Asi. What he wanted was Li Enze's words: "Prince Li, I do have two groups of troops to attack the Japanese slaves, but it is not to hold them back." The back legs of the reinforcements, so that we can wipe out the Japanese slaves and scare them. Now there are no Japanese slaves in Goryeo. The attack on the Japanese slaves was Wang Pang's personal doing, so I can't keep the Liao army."
"No! No!" Li Enze waved his hand hurriedly and said: "It is my business, Goryeo, to attack the Japanese slaves. It is my Goryeo who borrowed troops to counterattack the Japanese slaves and completely dispel the Japanese slaves' intention to do it again! The busy king's servant must help."
Hearing what Li Enze said, several of Wang Pang's generals snickered inwardly. This Korean was indeed the Korean stick that the young master mentioned. Now the young master had to pick up the big stick and hit him hard with the stick.
Wang Pang shook his head: "Princess Li, it's not that I don't want to help, how can a 30,000-strong army go to sea? How many naval forces and ships does Goryeo have? If Goryeo's navy cannot go out, and there are no ships, how can we just expect the Liao army to go out? And there are no ships. How to cross the sea?"
"To be honest, Wang Shilang, there are five thousand Goryeo naval forces. The original ships of Goryeo and the warships captured by the Japanese slaves can make up a total of one or two hundred, which can carry 20,000 troops. If this is not possible, we will issue more food stamps. Giving it to the Liao Army can be regarded as the food, fodder and armaments provided by our country." Li Enze said through gritted teeth.
When Li Enze saw the king smiling and saying nothing, he raised his hand and said: "The gold, silver, treasures and materials captured by the Japanese slaves this time can be completely sent back to the Liao and Song Dynasties by the Liao army. This is a tribute to Goryeo."
This is not a small amount of money. Wang Pang, the commander-in-chief, has not yet said what to do with these trophies. Xinzan and Yeluasi also thought that they were sending troops to help Goryeo. Wang Pang also said just now that these are If the people of Goryeo were plundered by Japanese slaves and brought back to Liao, they would be the same as Japanese slaves. Does Wang Pang want to get a piece of the pie?
Wang Pang chuckled: "Xin Linya, General Asi, I have an idea."
"Wang Shilang, we have never done anything like this to help other countries fight wars. As we just said, everything is up to you!"
Wang Pian raised his wine glass and raised it to everyone and said: "What we are sending this time are the benevolent and righteous teachers of the Liao and Song Dynasties. I propose that half of the captured gold and silver be used to help the refugees in Goryeo. The remaining half will be kept It is specially used to provide pensions to the soldiers who died in the war, and the other half is distributed to the Bohai navy who are far away from their homeland to support Goryeo. Now that everyone has come out with me and the war has been going on, those who are willing to stay and continue to fight against the Japanese slaves can organize to return to Liao if they are not willing. country!"
"Ah!" Li Enze was shocked. Wang Pang actually did this. This was something he didn't expect at all: "Thank you so much, Mr. Wang, for your consideration for the Korean people!"
"Princess Li, don't be too hasty to thank me. I still have something to say. Five thousand Liao troops are stationed in Tokyo, Korea. When Korea slowly recovers its national strength, you will have to pay for the food and grass expenses of the Liao army. To attack the Japanese In the name of your country, Goryeo, Goryeo will send 5,000 navy troops and 200 ships, led by me and the Liao army. There will be no problem with this."
"No problem, no problem!" Li Enze replied hurriedly.
There was an imperceptible smile on the corner of Wang Pang's mouth, and the gold and silver stolen by the Japanese slaves were not appreciated by Wang Pang. These were to appease people's hearts. Under the banner of Goryeo's counterattack against the Japanese slaves, he led the Goryeo navy to go out, and the Liao army was famous; Goryeo The garrison in Tokyo has been replaced by the Liao army, and the control of Tokyo is completely in the hands of the Liao army. If Goryeo dares not to fulfill the agreement and return the national debt, the Liao army will be a nail in Goryeo, and it will be driven hard into Goryeo. Even if Goryeo does not cede territory , but now it is time to drink poison to quench thirst. After that, Goryeo will have to obey the orders of Daliao. Liao has garrison. Wang Pang holds Goryeo's "food stamps" in his hand and can control Goryeo's currency and prices at any time. Is he still afraid that Goryeo will not be obedient in the future?
Li Enze didn't know. He just considered that the Liao army had used so much gold and silver to support Goryeo, which was enough to cover the cost of five thousand people for many years. It also garrisoned Goryeo to resist the Japanese slaves. With such a good thing in the world, Wang Pang is really a big deal. A good man, a great celestial being; the Liao army was truly a benevolent and righteous army, so he just knelt down and thanked Wang Pang a thousand times.[
What Xin Zan and Yelu Asi thought was that although they paid half of the silver, the soldiers gained a lot from the trip. The morale of the soldiers who led the troops to fight abroad was more meaningful than how much gold and silver they brought back to Liao. This can be said. Everyone was really happy to have achieved something, everyone toasted to celebrate, and the so-called farewell became the plan to launch the army again.
In the next two or three days, according to Wang Pang's arrangements, everyone was busy. In the end, 20,000 strong Bohai navy were selected to stay. Those who were not left behind escorted the disabled soldiers back to the Liao Kingdom with their respective trophies. The Bohai navy did not want to stay. They continued to fight, but after all, Goryeo could not accommodate so many troops, and it was really impossible to send out more ships. Those soldiers who had to return to the Liao Kingdom left Goryeo with regrets.
The Japanese slaves never expected that Goryeo was about to launch a counterattack. There were reinforcements from the Song Army and the Liao Army, with three hundred ships. What a huge team.
Wang Pang is about to set sail. From the coast east of Busan, Goryeo, when the weather is clear, the island of Wonu can be vaguely seen. It is estimated that the distance is only more than fifty kilometers, but that is not the place Wang Pang wants to go. The place is covered with rocks. , and there is no way to land there. What Wang Pang wants to go is from Nagasaki on Wano Kyushu Island, which belongs to Tsushima Island. It is more than 100 kilometers from Busan to there.
Wang Pang's first target is Nagasaki, and Nong Jifeng's troops have already approached Kagoshima in Kyushu. Japan's Kyushu is about to be in Wang Pang's bag, and Wang Pang's final goal is Heiankyo, the capital of Japan.
Wang Pang was on the last step. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to return to the Song Dynasty. How could he not miss his family during the Mid-Autumn Festival? But Wang Pang knew that if he went back like this, the Japanese slaves would come again, and Song Yingzong would not let him stay in the capital with peace of mind. Yes. If the Japanese slaves invade Goryeo again, all their efforts will be wasted. What's more, Wang Pang really wants to repair the little Japan. He can't leave the Wanyan tribe and Nong Jifeng, the troops who helped him, to the Japanese slaves. , fight! We must fight the Japanese slaves.
Wang Pang set sail with full of longing and expectation. This would be the most critical battle against the Japanese slaves, and he would fight to the Japanese slaves' homeland. After the battle, he could return to the Song Dynasty to see his wife and children. Now Baishi fell into the hands of Song Yingzong. , it will take more trouble to get it, and the worst is to resign and not have a family reunion. I have so much business, and my life will be worried for the rest of my life.
But, can things really go as smoothly as Wang Pang thought? In Tokyo during the Song Dynasty, a fire suddenly broke out on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival and was burned to ruins. Official The theory is that the fire was caused by a servant’s carelessness and the Lantern Festival lanterns in the courtyard. Is this really the case?
It's unbelievable and hard to accept! Yuexia, who had just been returned to the palace, was about to go to Jiangning, where Wang Anshi resigned, to wait for Wang Pang. Yuexia was buried in a sea of fire, and Wang Pang and Yuexia's children disappeared. This , how will Lu Shenyan, Yan Zhihu, Cai Jing, Rouer and others in the house explain to Wang Pang?
After Leng Qing left the capital and returned to Xingqing Mansion with her child in her arms, Li Liangzuo was furious: "Bastard! Who asked you to set the fire? How can my brother and I explain this?"
"Your Majesty! I didn't set the fire. If I hadn't arrived in time, this child would be dead." Leng Qing said in a low voice.
