Today's problem is not complicated at all. It is simply that Tang Jun is too strong——
It was so strong that when Jin Baiman received the Park family, he even inquired about it. It is said that the Tang army destroyed Silla, and rumors were spreading that China has a destiny, and those who do not follow it will be destroyed.
Where did these four "rumors" come from? Jin Baiman knew at a glance that they must have been made up by the Tang army when they attacked Goguryeo. But when it came time to destroy Silla and even seize the country at the border with Baekje, he didn't even hear the rumors.
never heard of that--
In other words, when the Tang army destroyed Silla and Baekje, they didn’t even bother to find an excuse...
This made Jin Baiman very angry. Recalling the policies of his father in the family over the years, he simply felt that iron could not make steel.
I tried to persuade him to strengthen ties with Goguryeo but he refused. Now...
It is said that when Goguryeo was being destroyed, the king of Goguryeo, Gao Jianwu, and the general Yeon Gaesumun went around asking for help.
This was something Jin Baiman had heard about before the Tang army invaded.
But... there is no way. After all, the connection between Baekje and Goguryeo is still separated by Silla. And although Baekje and Silla have many in-laws, their conflicts with each other have not stopped - otherwise they would not be one country long ago.
Because of this awkward relationship across Silla, it was difficult to handle such a sensitive matter as sending troops to support Goguryeo.
And... there is another point. If Baekje allocates its military forces to support Goguryeo, Baekje's own military strength relative to Silla will be greatly depleted. Who knows whether it will be robbed by then.
So thinking about it now, Jin Baiman could only shake his head and frown secretly. Silla and Baekje were too weak to compete with the Tang army.
Don't talk about military strength and the like. In Jin Baiman's opinion, it's easy to say, after all...
It is said that the Tang army is relocating the population in Goguryeo, and they also issued news about how rich and fertile the land of Goguryeo is. But if you think about it carefully...Silla and Baekje, the Tang army may not do that.
Although there is no evidence to confirm it, Jin Baiman thought about it and found out that the purpose of the Tang army's relocation of the population... This goes without saying, but there will definitely be a cost, and it will be expensive. So...
The land of Silla and Baekje is indeed not as good as that of Goguryeo, otherwise Goguryeo would have taken Silla long ago, and Baekje was used as pasture for sheep and horses.
And in this case, of course the Tang army would not change the population composition of Silla and Baekje!
So, as long as we try to mobilize the nobles of the Park family and the Kim family here, we will have the opportunity to return to Silla and Baekje in the future to encourage the people to follow the uprising and fight against the Tang Dynasty!
But now looking at the state of these people...
It would be very difficult for Jin Baiman to stop himself from rolling his eyes, let alone mobilize this group of people.
The only problem is that if this group of people cannot be mobilized... what should we do next?
…
Several large ships are traveling day and night on the sea. Although they are ships, they can be described as non-stop, and they are rushing to Japan quickly.
Silla and Baekje could not stay any longer, so of course they had to flee to Japan.
But just as Park and Kim were on their way to join their relatives.
At this moment, the four continents of Japan have also received the news. In fact, in addition to taking in the pirates who ran away from Hangzhou, Japan also has many pirates who make a living in Japan.
These pirates usually operate mainly in the Silla and Baekje areas, as well as near the northern part of the eastern coastline of the Tang Dynasty. Their main targets of robbery are fishing villages and fishermen. With the support of their respective feudal lords and the advantage of having soldiers, they run rampant
Very powerful.
However, these are not big forces at the moment, but these pirates are faster at sea than the ships of Silla and Baekje, and the sea routes are more familiar. Before the ships of the Park family and the Kim family have reached the four continents of Japan, they have already
Brought the news to Japan.
After receiving the news, the various forces in the four continents of Japan were naturally shocked.
At that time, Japan had not yet been unified, and was divided into the Japanese state, which was canonized with a gold seal by Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the local Eni people.
At that time, Emperor Guangwu canonized the Japanese state, and the word on the golden seal was "Wei" instead of "Japanese". However, this golden seal canonization also gave the Japanese people their own names, so they simply called themselves the Japanese state. By the time of the Three Kingdoms
During this period, Cao Wei conferred the title again, and the name was permanently fixed.
According to the research of later generations of scholars, the Japanese ethnic group in Japan were actually the Silla and Baekje fishermen who crossed the sea to found the country in the early ancient times.
As for the Ezo people who are regarded as the true native population of Japan, their origins are much older. Japan has not yet split from Eurasia, and they have migrated and settled in Japan since the era when the world was still a supercontinent.
.
Although these two groups of people came to the four continents of Japan in ancient times, they were not on the same road after all. Their customs, bloodlines... everything was different. Therefore, the two groups of people often attacked each other, and they have not been unified for many years.
Although over the course of history, the two groups of people had truces, transactions, and intermarriages with each other, and even their names gradually disappeared over time, their respective characteristics became homogeneous, but in general, the two banners never fell.
, is still in the midst of disputes and conflicts.
The first people to get the news were the Ezo people, and the supreme leader of the Ezo people was the Soga family.
The head of the family, Soga Ezo, was so excited that he almost fainted after receiving the news from the pirates, because...
For the Eni people, although the Japanese claimed to be Japanese orthodox canonized by their superiors, they had many contacts with forces such as Silla and Goryeo, and even intermarryed with them.
However, there is no fear of bloodshed in the war between the Eni and the Japanese. If they are afraid, they are not the Ezo people. But the Ezo people also know that in the vast land next door, there is the most powerful kingdom in the world.
Because this Japanese country has been canonized by the superior country, the Eni people are often afraid in their hearts - but they also want to report it to the superior country. You see, this Japanese people are not honest at all.
The intermarriage between the hostile forces clearly shows that they do not take the honor of the country into consideration.
And now...
The name of this country changed from "Han" to "Tang" for some unknown reason, but since the army of the country destroyed Silla and Baekje, the two major aids of the Japanese country, this is naturally a huge benefit to the Ezo people.
——
Think about it, since Silla and Baekje are hostile to the Tang Dynasty, how can the Tang Dynasty look good to Japan?
impossible.
Therefore, the moment Soga Ezo was informed of the information, he burst into laughter on the spot.
However, Soga Ezo was the head of the Soga family and had the best strategic vision, but the retainers below were a little confused.
After all, what happened on that distant land, what can we be excited about?...
Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Soga Ezo stated the interests again, and the retainers below were immediately overjoyed.
But when the same news reached Japan... the atmosphere was suddenly different!
