Chapter 108: Japanese

Japan, Heian Kyo.

It was not yet August, and the trees were falling in peace. At the fifth day of the day, the neighborhoods were dark and lonely. Apart from the officials who got up early to attend court, there were only Wuhou who patrol the streets and could not see ordinary pedestrians.

Many officials gathered in front of the gate of the palace city, politely greeting each other, whispering the recent events and secret news in the court. Judging from their positions, they were divided into two distinct groups, but not divided by civil and military affairs, which was quite strange.

On the wide Suzaku Road, a team of extraordinary honors appeared, with a well-equipped guards and a BMW cart. When the officials saw each other approaching, they hurriedly stopped their conversations, and waited respectfully. They were so awe-inducing because it was the car of Fujiwara Toshihide, who had just been promoted from Danayan to the left minister two years ago.

As soon as Fujiwara Toshihide's car stopped, a fleet of cars and horses drove up on the Suzaku Road. The show was also quite large, but the specifications were slightly worse than those of Fujiwara Toshihide. The officials who had not moved in front of the palace gate rushed to meet them at this time.

Fujiwara Tomoehiro, wearing court robes and majestic faces, walked out of the carriage, turned to look at the side, and saw Sugawara Domain, who was promoted from Kwon Danayan to the right minister at the same time as him, appeared. He did not treat each other indifferently as usual, but nodded slightly to indicate.

Sugawara Mayori took the initiative to come forward to greet Fujiwara Tokihei.

After the ceremony, they did not speak and walked towards the gate of the palace city together. Before the court meeting was reached, the gate of the palace was opened in advance. The scene of the left and right ministers hurried into the palace city made the officials look at each other, and the monk Zhang Er was confused.

Fujiwara Tohei comes from the Fujiwara family. The Fujiwara family has existed since the Asuka era and made great contributions in the Great Reform more than 200 years ago, and gradually became a powerful nobleman in Japan. Fifty or sixty years ago, with Fujiwara Ryoya taking office as "Guanbai" and acting as the regent, the Fujiwara family has become the largest noble in Japan.

Not only the Emperor, but many princes’ concubines all have women from the Fujiwara family.

Compared with Fujiwara Tohei, although Sugawara Daoma comes from a scholarly family and is a so-called famous scholar in the world, he can only be regarded as a poor family. The two are the heads of Japanese officials, but their relationship is not harmonious.

When Fujiwara Toshihiro and Sugawara Daoshi came to Taiji Hall, the lights were brightly lit. The waiters were under the steps. When they saw them appear, they took the initiative to greet them and said respectfully: "His Majesty the Emperor has given orders. After the two of them come, they will go directly to the main hall to discuss matters."

Fujiwara Toshihei and Sugawara Noma nodded and followed the waiter up the stairs.

The sixteen or seventeen-year-old Emperor Daigo sat high behind the imperial desk. His childishness had not yet faded, but his eyebrows were full of heroic spirit. When the two ministers were performing their manners, he suppressed his anxiety and his voice calmly made them stand up and sit down.

"Two dear ministers, Heian Kyo received an emergency military report last night that the Tang Dynasty navy had left Jeju and was attacking our country in large numbers! It seems that Fujiwara's previous speculation has come true. The Tang Dynasty is going to attack our country!"

Daigo clenched his fists, his voice began to tremble uncontrollably, and his eyes were mixed with fear, anxiety, anxiety, anger, etc., which was particularly complicated, which made his face look unstable.

The emperor has no surname or household registration, so does this Emperor Daigo.

Sugawara Doshi was shocked, "How is this possible?"

Fujiwara Shigei snorted coldly, looking at Sugawara Domain in dissatisfaction and said in a deep voice: "Several years ago, the Emperor ordered you to send a Tang envoy to the Tang Dynasty to make you go to the Tang Dynasty, but you shirked your responsibility and refused to set off, and in the end it was not done, so that this matter would end in vain!

"If you went to the Tang Dynasty at that time, you would have learned more about the Tang Dynasty. How could this kind of crisis happen that the Tang army had already been dispatched and we were hastily aware of it?"

The incident of sending the Tang envoy a few years ago did exist, Sugawara Daoma hurriedly defended: "At that time, the Tang Dynasty was in civil turmoil, the princes fought against each other, and the imperial authority was lost. It was really not advisable to send the Tang envoy to travel..."

"If the Tang Dynasty court was so unbearable as you said, now in just a few years, how could they send troops to attack us?" Fujiwara Tomoe pressed step by step.

"This..." Sugawara Domain was so choked that he couldn't speak. The news he found was absolutely true. But he never thought that the Tang Dynasty would quell the civil strife so quickly and have the ability to send troops to neighboring countries!

"Okay, now is not the time to argue!" Daigo shouted and stopped the two of them. "The Tang Dynasty is fighting undeclared. How can we overcome this crisis be urgent! What are the insights of the two dear ministers?"

Fujiwara Toshihiro and Sugawara Nomatsu fell silent.

Compared with the Tang Dynasty, Japan was just a wild land with few lands and few people. If it weren't for the fact that countless envoys sent Tang Dynasty risked their lives to cross the black ocean to study in the Tang Dynasty, Japan is still in a slave society.

After sending the Tang envoy back to Japan, he implemented the "Great Reform" and comprehensively imitated the military and political system of the Tang Dynasty and rebuilt various orders in Japan. This led the Japanese to evolve from a slave society to a so-called feudal society.

Although the capital of Japan is called Peachian Jing, the city structure and street area are designed to copy the appearance of Chang'an and Luoyang in the Tang Dynasty. The area of ​​Peachian Jing is only one-fifth of the Chang'an City, but it has set up two counties in a very good manner. I still don't know that one is called Chang'an and the other is called Luoyang.

The city streets that divide "Chang'an" and "Luoyang" also steal the name of Chang'an Zhuque Street, called Zhuque Road, and the Tai Chi Hall in the palace city is naturally also imitating the Tai Chi Hall in Chang'an Palace City.

However, Chang'an City has a palace city, and it is divided into imperial cities. Together, it is called the imperial palace. However, Ping'an Jing does not have so much financial resources to build a majestic imperial city. Only Ping'an Palace is the only one that is used.

At this time, everything in Japan had a strong Tang Dynasty style, including the emperor's claim. However, compared with the powerful Tang Dynasty, everything in Japan was much smaller. To a certain extent, it was equivalent to the difference between a local dog and a tiger.

If the Tang people came here to live, there would basically be no problems except language - if they were studying, there would be no problems with language. The poems, songs, articles, theories, and the essence of the scriptures here all came from the Tang Dynasty.

At the Battle of Pyongyang City, Li Ye went to the front of the formation to talk to Pei Xuanqing, and the language they used was the official language of the Tang Dynasty.

So if there are people from Chang'an, the most intuitive feeling should be to go to the countryside of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, from the facts, all the countries around the Tang Dynasty learned about the Han and Tang civilizations. Khitan, Bohai, Silla, Goguryeo, Baekje, Nanzhao, and Annan were all like this.

It was the Han and Tang civilizations that led them to evolve from a stupid and ignorant slave society to a feudal society, and had the possibility of developing their own sub-civilizations and building a prosperous society under the system of Han and Tang civilizations.

"Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, the Tang Dynasty's invasion this time should be because we have not paid tribute to them on time in recent years as usual. According to the nature of the Tang people, as long as the surrounding countries express their surrender and recognize their overlord status, their army will not attack.

"If we could give some money every year, they would be very happy to live in harmony with us and even help us. It is precisely because of this that the envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty who were sent to the Tang Dynasty were treated with courtesy and could even become officials in the Tang Dynasty.

"So my suggestion is..." Sugawara Domain said this, with a strong look of regret in his eyes. If he had known that the Tang Dynasty could quickly quell the civil strife, he would have to go to Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty, no matter what he said. In this way, the country would not have to face this situation now.

"Enough! You are saying that harming the country and the people!" Fujiwara Toshihei jumped out and sternly said without waiting for Sugawara Domain to finish his speech.

He bowed to Daigo and said, "Your Majesty, I have found out that the navy attacked in the Tang Dynasty has only about 100,000 troops. Why should we be afraid of this little force?"

Speaking of this, he looked upright and said with a righteous expression: "We are not at fault, but the Tang Dynasty fought undeclaredly. This is a rebellious act and a loss of the title of righteousness must be a resentment of heaven and man. How can such an unrighteous teacher accomplish anything?

"More importantly, after the country's maximization reform, the country's power is strong, and now it is different from the past. What are we afraid of just 100,000 Tang troops? Your Majesty only needs to let me take charge, and I will definitely be able to defeat the Tang army!"

When Daigo heard this, his heart was cheered up and his eyes were bright.

He had heard that the Tang army was attacking before, and he was so anxious that he was restless. Now he heard that Fujiwara Toshihei had discovered the number of Tang army early, the truth and truth, and his words were reasonable and well-founded. His heart immediately became much more stable, "Is Fujiwara really sure to defeat the Tang army?"

After hearing this, Sugawara Daoma could no longer sit still and hurriedly retorted: "Your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty is a dragon in the sea and a tiger in the mountains. It must not be easily violated. We should still deal with it with caution! If you can solve the problem with some money and a letter of nationality, why do you have to make a big move? Soldiers are evil things. Once you use a rash sword, blood will flow into a river and life will be devastated..."

"Sugarawa Doma!"

Fujiwara Toshihei called him in anger. He was a nobleman and had always felt superior to Sugawara Daoma. He pointed to the other party's nose and said, "How can you be as timid as a mouse stand in the court? If the Tang Dynasty was really as strong as you said, how could there be the Anshi Rebellion, how could there be the Huang Chao Rebellion, and how could it be taken away by someone to large areas of territory?"

Sugawara Daoma was scolded like this, so angry that she glared at her nose and stared at her. What else did she want to say, but Daigo had already spoken: "You don't have to fight for the two dear ministers, I have decided!"

The two of them looked like they bowed and took the order.

Daigo said with a bright look: "Although the Tang Dynasty is strong, we have learned from them for hundreds of years, and we are no less than them! In recent years, the Tang Dynasty has experienced many wars and national strength has declined, but our state affairs are stable and have been growing. This time, the Tang Dynasty has developed unrighteous troops, with only 100,000 naval troops. I want to see what qualifications the Tang Dynasty has, and let us always bow to them!"

Speaking of this, Daigo stood up from his seat, with a tall figure and high fighting spirit.

He looked at his two ministers with expectant eyes: "I hope you remember that the people of Amaterasu are the best existence on this land and are not inferior to anyone! Even if we are not as good as other countries for the time being and need to learn from other countries, the ultimate goal is not to comply with other countries! But to prove that the people of Amaterasu can also become dragons in the sea and tigers in the mountains!

"Fujiwara, go and fight hard! If you can defeat the Tang army in this battle, you will become the people of Amaterasu and announce to the people of the world that you have truly risen and are about to spread the world!"
