Tai Chi disappears toward the upright path, Qi Lao's posture takes advantage of it. Suddenly he heard the words of the heavens when he was in the new position, and at the beginning of the revolution, he looked at Zhuan Dou Piao.
With dragons and Yan Bule on all sides, two squads Chuiyu subdued their friends. Do not teach the planner to go back empty, rain and dew follow the five edicts.
"The third rhyme of Yuanhuici Zaichen" The third rhyme of Yuanhuici Zaichen
—I am the dividing line —
And on a beach in Penglai County, Dengzhou, Zhou Huaian, who had been here for the third day, was also playing with a few mottled stones while listening to the local preliminary work from Silla and Waguo. report.
The good news is that in addition to several traditional gold mines along the coast between Denglai and Lai, mining has been restored and expanded; the preliminary preparations and operations in the country have also achieved corresponding results. One of the most significant gains is that it was one of the largest gold deposits in Japan afterwards, and it was also the easiest to mine in this era. The Golden Mountain of Sado Island, known as the three-century financial pillar of the Tokugawa Shogunate, has been found.
Therefore, the results of the exploration of the corresponding shallow mining on the island have been completed, and the proposed port trestle and temporary settlements have been established at the coastal estuary. The mottled stones in Zhou Huaian’s hands are samples of raw gold obtained after digging holes in many places in the local area; although they look inconspicuous, they have large and small natural gold particles and gold after crushing and grinding. Crumbs are visible to the naked eye.
But the relatively bad news is that this place has been an island of exile since the Nara era in the country of Japan. Therefore, apart from a few fishing villages along the coast, the huge island is actually extinct, let alone decent transportation and self-sustaining ability. , The source of labor is stabilized; in fact, both the Yuezhou (Echigo Country) where Sado Island belongs to, and the Wa Country of this era are quite poor and backward.
You know, the U.S. country has only a few million registered permanent residences, and the power of the whole country can only maintain and support Heianjing (today's Kyoto), such a city of the Tang Dynasty, as well as the nobles, officials and monks living in it. Our decent life is nothing more than that; as for the jurisdictions of other five-ji and seven-dao local governments and prefectures, it is also the Tuweizi, which is between the Wubao and the stockade in Zhongtu.
Therefore, even on the big island of Honshu, which is the heart of the Japanese nation, there are still many undeveloped wilderness areas and undeveloped hill and forest tribes; even in the vicinity of Heishikyo, the capital city, and other areas of order, there are still a large number of activities. The savage settlements in the mountains and forests exist; it is like the story of the Chinese (inside the city) and the savage (outside the city) in the ancient Spring and Autumn Period.
Therefore, if you want to obtain the labor for the follow-up development of Sado Jinshan, it is not enough to transport the technicians and craftsmen from the mainland. It is also necessary to obtain more basic labor supplements from the local materials to further carry out the follow-up work; At the same time, it is imperative to carry out agricultural reclamation nearby to gain self-sustainability after expanding the scale of mining;
Therefore, as the person in charge of this line, he also came up with a multi-pronged package according to local conditions. On the one hand, he negotiated with the Japanese court, and exchanged the trade share of the imported goods from the regular shipping lines in exchange for the money under the control of the Japanese court. Slaves and tribesmen; on the other hand, they bought and hired the armed forces belonging to Echigo Kokuji, and captured strong men from the local savages and mountain dwellers as a supplement.
Because of the relative geographic isolation and closure of the lonely sea on Sado Island; as long as there is sufficient maritime power to maintain and blockade, the secrecy of mining activities for a long period of time can be ensured; of course, we must also take care of local conflicts. After that, the preparations for armed confrontation and military intervention in disciplinary warfare are after all wealth moving, and there is no shortage of benefits that will stun the intellect.
And with the backward productivity and technical conditions in the local area, too high-end labor is not required; as long as there is enough labor, the ore mined in the pit will be crushed and sieved by the hydraulic organ, and the coarse gold ore will be directly loaded on the ship on a regular basis. The wind and ocean currents directly reach the territory of Dengzhou, and then further smelting and casting are done.
As for conquering the entire Japanese kingdom, I'm sorry, but it is not yet in the basic consideration of the Taiping Dudu. After all, in addition to providing cheap labor for the relatively rich gold and silver veins nearby, the Fusang Islands today are a remote country full of poverty, backwardness and barren land. Even the subsequent maintenance and occupation costs are completely It's the chicken ribs where the gain is not worth the loss.
It is better to take advantage of the overall gap in the political, economic and cultural upstream of civilization to carry out dumping harvesting and influence infiltration, and then indirectly support some interest agents, in the name of the local government, for subsequent squeeze and exploitation of the local area. Compared with the relatively calm and smooth process of Wa Kingdom’s conquest, Silla, which has become a mess of porridge, is much more lively now.
At least, under the call and influence of the banner of Cui Zhiyuan, the leading party, the so-called Southern Expedition Camp with Huainan soldiers at the core has spread its influence across the southern Wu, Kang, and Liangsan of the five capitals of Kyushu, Silla Kingdom. Most of the prefecture; it can be said that with the exception of the northern part of Yangju where King Silla (Gimseong) is located, more than a hundred cities and towns of more than 20 counties, large and small, are under direct or indirect control.
Moreover, in these areas under the direct control of Silla, he also cleverly established a name and used a disguised form to implement many of the policies that the Taiping Army had implemented earlier. Naturally, he encountered fierce resistance of all kinds or resistance from yang Feng Yin violation; it also led to one after another The military riots and local unrest continued. But he never wavered his determination to implement the New Deal.
Therefore, in the course of this confrontation and game, even the royal ambassadors from the capital have disappeared on the road; there are also several great nobles born in real bones and dozens of small and medium-sized nobles above the sixth grade. The chaotic party and bandits were smashed; hundreds of villagers, villagers, ministers and leaders of local tycoons were destroyed by the town or the dead.
Therefore, in addition to not publicly issuing the king’s command to crusade, Cui Zhiyuan’s Zhengnan camp has completely torn his face with Wang Jing, and only the last bit of fragile balance maintained by the fig leaf is left; however, relative to the north, it is getting stronger and stronger. The rebellion and separatist regime of China, the same helpless Wang Jing court did not dare to act rashly.
But in the wrestling that can only fight in private without breaking, it stands on the same level as this local force that spans the territory of the three states, but still belongs to the imperial court in name, and has formed a rather delicate dynamic balance; At the beginning, the Huainan Hakka army was the backbone of the South Expedition Camp, which has expanded to tens of thousands. In addition, there are hundreds of armed civilian camps in various places, and tens of thousands of Ding Zhuangs under the management of Ding Zhuang.
However, at this time, Cui Zhiyuan, who was the first to bear the brunt of the table, was not only removed from his native place by the Cui family of Liupintou, but also because of the lawlessness of Qingliangshan Haichuan Temple under the control of the Liupintou family, and he broke into the Tongdu Temple of Jiuqishan in Suna. Hidden thieves; and was later reprimanded by the Sangha group headed by the Fifth Academy of the Nine Hills of Silla as "the evil spirits of the world" who did not respect the Dharma.
It can be said that among the noble officials of the middle and upper classes, Cui Zhiyuan made close friends, old times, and followers of the low-level head children and Zaiyeshizi who gathered around him, except for a few and most who were eager to turn over and change their status. The beloved, common people, slaves and servants, and Limin, all the others could not bear the pressure in the midst of the rebellion and renunciation, or quit one after another.
In the end, on the contrary, among the few remaining old acquaintances who have also studied Datang, and from the Ministry of Affairs, the Ministry of Education, Chongwentai and other officials of the nearby office of Cui Yanzhu, Park Infan, Cui Seungyou, etc., the same year, formed a group of Bingong students. There are also a few great Confucian king Juren who are in the opposition, who stand relatively firmly on his side, and call them "the current conscience" and "a model of clear flow."
Therefore, the few scholars in Silla split into several factions such as Baowang, Fuchao, Shouxiang, and Funan, and the great Confucian King Juren, the former Central Affairs Provincial Academy Shuzheng Choi Yanqi, and others praised Cui Yanqi. Zhiyuan is called the Funan School or the Reform School with Jin Hae-kyung as the center, and each other posts lists, citing scriptures and censors.
However, at this point, Cui Zhiyuan’s Southern Expedition Camp has also reached a certain bottleneck, and he is temporarily unable to continue to expand the site and control area, and instead continues to consolidate the locality and implement the reform policy. At this time, the chaotic situation in the central and northern states of Silla has finally evolved into several major separatist forces distributed across states in the midst of mergers and chaos.
Among them, in addition to the strongest commander Liang Ji, who has occupied most of Beiyuanjing and Shuozhou; there is also Seda Temple (Heunggyo Temple), one of the nine Buddhist monasteries in Silla, who claims to be the 48th King of Silla King Moon The concubine, and the leader of the party feathers occupied Cheorwon County (now Cheorwon, Gangwon Province, South Korea) and the monk Sunjong from southwest Hanju.
As well as claiming to be a general of the rebel army and leading his troops to occupy Zhuzhou County and annex the Hao Chief Ji Xuan along the coast of Mingzhou; there are also local tyrants who pretended to have been appointed prefects by pretending to have taken possession of Aci in Shafer County and northern Shuozhou; Songyue County Road Envoy Wang Long himself led the five major forces in the northern part of Hanzhou controlled by the proprietor, as well as a military city in Yanbian and Zhai Lei;
While Xiongju and Shangju in the central part of Silla competed for territories and merged and separatist forces, they continued to confront and attack each other; therefore, in fact, they still belonged to the territory under the rule of King Gyeong of Silla, except for In addition to Wuzhou, Kangju, and Liangju affected by the expropriation camp, there is still a large part of Shangju, as well as Hanzhou Zhongyuanjing and Xiyuanjing in Xiongzhou, which hang alone.
As for Zhou Huaian's special explanation, Zhen Xuan, Gong Yi, Wang Jian and other post-Goguryeo and post-Baekje founders who need special attention are still not seen; it is as if they were wiped out in history. But in any case, since the Pinglu army has been decided, and the territory of Hebei has been gradually settled, it will be sooner or later that the investment in the Silla Raiders across the sea will be increased.
However, at this time, an emergency report from Hebei once again interrupted Zhou Huai'an's few seaside vacations. And let him look with some regret at the graceful figure playing in the sea pool specially dug behind the curtain.
"The Pinglu army who went to Songmo and Rao Le's second capital governor's mansion was actually defeated?" (End of this chapter)
