Tang Dynasty

Chapter 877: Wild death will not be buried (continued)

Views:

In Jiangling City, the craze and enthusiasm that just ended the National Games has not yet passed, but it is still immersed in various concerns and speculations about the pregnancy in the back residence of the Dudu Mansion. And in the case room of the official office of the Metropolitan Government, Zhou Huaian was also getting an emergency report from the north.

"So throughout the winter, all parties in the Central Plains, such as Hedong and Henan east of Tongguan, fought again? This involves seven or eight powers!"

Zhou Huaian couldn't help asking:

"Back to the Lord, now it's not only Henan, but also the three towns of Heshuo north of the big river.

Since the Huainan strategy, Li Shicheng, who has been in charge of the outreach department in the Kanto region, said in a low voice:

"In addition to Weibo Town, which is temporarily on the defensive, and Chengde Town, which has already confirmed its march into Jingxing, the sea route to report to Lulong Town is also sending out troops... It's just that the movement is still unknown, and it needs..."

"Well, it's not bad to be able to make such a big step... Our army's layout in the North is still shallow, there is no need to rush to get results immediately... It is better to accumulate and lurking!"

Zhou Huaian nodded;

This is also thanks to the various business travellers who travel along the sea and rivers and waterways controlled by the Taiping Army to traffic southern products and travel all over the north; among them, whether to make money or not to make more money is to make less money. The key is to be able to find out. News, and first-hand information on developments that have seen and judged with your own eyes.

However, the timeliness of the specific delay is full of metaphysical probabilities, and the things obtained are mostly rough, which can only be used as a reference for a certain overall situation, and there is a lack of data and samples that can be specifically analyzed. Subsequently, Li Shicheng offered a new essay:

"This is the news of Silla Kingdom sent back from Dengju Cargo Station from Pinglu..."

"Silla Kingdom, it's actually him?"

Zhou Huaian couldn't help but sighed and thought of the magical country of later generations that changed the feudal two-shift system to the modern era, and treated the performers as slaves and maidservants.

Of course, compared with the Japanese side, which is rich in gold and silver and is predestined for limited conquest and occupation; as a traditional vassal and subject of China, Silla has a less sense of existence. Because of its mountainous area and limited land production, in most stages of history, only the worship that went down the tide was greater than any Central Plains dynasty or nearby threatening forces.

However, no matter how small a country with few people and a poor country, it has accumulated a lot of corresponding benefits and industries after long-term business and trade with China and Turkey. And these dismembered or indirect benefits, along with the surface power of the Taiping Army, which gradually controlled the navigation rights of coastal areas, gradually moved into the hands of the peripheral forces supported by the Metropolitan Government.

Originally, this matter was intended to be handed over to Kong Liluo, a naturalized man dispatched from the South China Sea, but he awakened a certain interest after the War of Wenzhou, and volunteered to change his career and ran to lead the army to fight. In addition, compared with the internal struggles that are only limited to the upper echelons of the country, the situation in Silla is now chaotic and unclear. This matter has been dragged down until recently.

You know, this year is the second year of the reign of Kingman, the third queen of Silla. After the "Jang Baogao (Gongfu) Rebellion" decades ago, the Silla Kingdom fell into a deteriorating and continuous decline, and now it is even more so that Wang Ling can't get out of Jincheng (now Gyeongju, North Gyeongsang Province, South Korea). , And the local tycoons and army heads lined themselves up in the name of city owners and county guards.

Therefore, according to the normal historical trajectory, the peasants will riot in a few years, ushering in the so-called post-Three Kingdoms era in North Korea. The heroes who set off a chaotic war for hegemony, such as Zhen Xuan, Gong Yi, Wang Jian and other figures, should still be dormant in the grassy state, waiting for the opportunity of the future. In a sense, the effect of this easterly corner is also a copy of the China-Earth incident in a sense.

As the root of all this, Zhang Baogao is also a rather inspirational legend in the history of Silla. He was originally a trafficked slave and maidservant, but later became a small school in the Wuning Army before being supported by him. I felt very pitiful, and the powerful Tang people and merchants from Middle-earth at that time ransacked the coastal areas of Silla and kidnapped the local women to sell for the Silla maidservants for profit, which made the people of Silla feel deeply miserable. Tradition.

Even Zheng Nian from his hometown fled back to China and built the Fahua Temple in Chishan to spread the Tiantai Sect of Buddhism in China. With this as a foundation, he gathered believers and established the so-called Qing navy (town) while reclaiming and training. And cutting off dissidents, while monopolizing multi-national sea trade, including Silla's maidservant, became a major force that could interfere with the change of Silla's kingship at that time.

But after all, he is the origin of a humble person, and his own existence is a serious threat and challenge to the existing ruling order in the new country. Therefore, after marrying a daughter to the new king he supported, he was united by the noble ministers to booby and banquet; and the Qing navy's power also fell apart, and it became the continuous disruption of the Silla country for decades. Banditry.

During this period, many people who claimed to be Zhang Baogao’s descendants and subordinates continued to center and set off rounds of rebellion and turmoil; and in the long-lasting encirclement and suppression, the ruling order of Silla Kingdom from the center to the locality was gradually dragged down. And sustaining power. It also allowed various local tycoons and generals that had been suppressed on the path of advancement to rise up, and to stand apart from Wang Ling in fact.

The root cause of all this is to involve the remains of a very weird slave clan in Silla Kingdom-the bone quality system. A kind of ancient Joseon’s three-surname royal family and six aristocratic generations, a strict social hierarchy that determined political and social status by kinship as a bond.

The three royal families of Pu, Xi, and Jin have the highest status and are called "Holy Bone" (the first bone). The large and small nobles are divided into "true bone" (or second bone), six-headed product, five-headed product, and four-headed product. Wait for four levels. Only the "Holy Bone" and "True Bone" nobles can inherit the throne. According to different identities (bones), other nobles held different official positions. National affairs must be decided by the "Hebai" meeting attended by the king and the nobles of high-end bone products.

Each bone product is self-enclosed and does not marry each other to ensure the purity and orthodoxy of the blood. Therefore, what came down in the same line as the Japanese country on the other side was the intermarriage system that was criticized by later generations. Because according to the corresponding requirements, people in bone products can only marry female relatives of the same race and family. In contrast, the Zoroastrian pros, the step marriage on the grassland, and the German orthopedics are all weak, and they are catching up with the fine traditions of the ancient Egyptians.

In a sense, as long as the human body in the bone product is strong enough and determined, even if you want to forcibly achieve the family bucket achievement, it may not be necessary. However, the incarnation of the Jiuhua Mountain Jizo King Bodhisattva who walked in the family, Sun Jin Qiaojue, the king of Silla, has been passed down to later generations. It is not that he is tired of the bone system and the remains of the slave clan that violates the normal human relationship. Want to escape.

In addition, similar to the caste system in India, there are various low-level classes under the social hierarchy, such as the third class, the second class, the first class, the common people, and the slaves. These classes are non-skeletal classes. These people do not have surnames and are not allowed to use the Chinese characters (Chinese characters) from the heavenly kingdoms. Therefore, they can only add bow characters to their titles. For example, even Zhang Baogao, as a powerful minister supporting the new king, is in Silla. The country can only be called Gongfu.

Therefore, as for those who leapfrogged and inferior orphans intermarried and stayed behind, the whole class would not hesitate to knock them out of the mortal world and become a low-ranking place; generations cannot stand up. It is also the source of the maternal inheritance system of later generations of North Korea (evil children, low caste). So once the kingship weakened, these extremely repressed local forces burst out together and became the current situation.

But what I didn't expect was that Wang Qinian, who was able to open up the situation in the quagmire territory of Silla, had never felt the presence of the former head of the Department of Trade and Commerce, and now is still transferred to the (logistics) preparatory bureau Wang Qinian. In other words, after the Jiangdong strategy was over, he led several ships back to the north to explore the way. And when they had to dock at Chishanpo (now Rongcheng Shidao Town) on the coast of Silla due to wind and waves, they used the name of the former Huainan Jiedushi.

The contemporary Huainan Jiedu Envoy Gao Pian, who was the “Ding Minister of the Kingdom” and “One Pillar of the Southern Sky”, was equally famous and spread to the land of Silla. Therefore, under the banner of the Huainan Festival Ya procurement envoy and the Bohai Gao's banner, Wang Qinian and the others, unexpectedly went along the coast unimpededly into Liangju on the east coast of Silla, and finally arrived at Jincheng under Tuhan Mountain in Dongyue of Silla. Beijing;

As the saying goes, there are still three kilograms of nails in the broken ship, although the decree of the royal family's declining authority cannot work. The kings and ministers of Xinluo, headed by the Queen of True Saints, were still very enthusiastic in Linhaidian, and met this line of envoys from "Huainan"; after receiving gifts such as bronze mirrors, tea balls, lacquerware, and splendid embroidery, they also presented seal skins. Local products such as, cloth, jade, etc. are regarded as sincerity.

Of course, the more important thing is to obtain the permission of the king of trading rights to Silla. Although the royal power is now weak and the decree is difficult to get out of Jincheng, but with this righteous name, coupled with the military base of the sea ferry group, and the follow-up support as the backing, it is enough to occupy a place on the coast of Silla.

On the other hand, although the local area of Silla is poor and ill-fated, the king's capital, which is home to the nobles from all over the world, has developed into a possession with the support and maintenance of the five capitals of Kyushu and Silla. There are 178,936 households and 1,360 squares. It is known as a metropolis with “no thatched cottage in the city, with walls connected by corners, and the road is full of songs, day and night”.

Therefore, for those who cross the sea, even in Zhongtu, it is known as the "Huainan Products" in the southeast of Fujia; they also have great interest and desire for consumption. Especially the books, pen, ink and paper of Tangdi are more than ten times more profitable in the local area. Even at the Hebaek meeting, the decision to establish the so-called "Huainan Pavilion" was made in Jinhaekyo (Gimhae City, Gyeongsangnam-do), one of the five small capitals in Kyushu.

Therefore, when Wang Qinian and his entourage returned with full load, they organized a second larger ship group to set off. The so-called Huainan delegation has become more and more "deserved of its name". Not only are there genuine officials and generals of the old Huainan Festival Ya in the team, but even the corresponding documents and seals are authentic authentic works of the high county king who has been reduced to a prisoner. It can be called more or less.

Later, in the name of protecting business roads, after expelling and defeating several local groups near Jin Hae Kyung, the proprietors (county guards) and castle owners (county magistrates) with powerful backgrounds; now the city defense of Jin Hae Kyung in the southeast of Silla, Already in a disguised form, he is in the hands of the armed forces stationed in the local ship regiment; but on the face of it, he still honors the prince Jin Kyu of the Shida (Silla official name, nicknamed Da Yin) sent by Jincheng.

As for the remaining empire between Liangzhou and Kangzhou, the city owners, proprietors, and military owners who formed their own sides, all of a sudden became loyal ministers respecting the royal family, and began to take the initiative to communicate with the Huainan Ship Group. Good and in touch. However, at this time, Wang Qinian put forward a new proposal and request to the rear.

I just hope to find a Silla named Cui Zhiyuan in the area controlled by the Taiping Army. His surname is King Jinggui of Silla. At the age of twelve, in the 9th year of Tang Yizong's Xiantong (AD 868), he sailed westward into the Tang Dynasty by boat. He first studied in the capital city of Chang'an and traveled to Luoyang. In the first year of Emperor Xizong Qianfu's first year (874 AD), he was appointed as the Lishui County Lieutenant. After his term expired, he was appointed as the shogunate by Gao Pian, the Huainan Jiedu ambassador.

Therefore, although this monarch is not a big deal in the bureaucratic preface of the Tang Dynasty, his experience in studying abroad in the celestial dynasty, as well as being an official official, made him a sensation in the hometown of the east country and the land of Xinluo. Sexual reputation. In particular, Cui Zhiyuan’s "Book of the Yellow Nest" proposed by Cui Zhiyuan, "It is not only that all the people in the world want to kill, but also the ghosts in the earth have discussed the shame", which was recited by the world and received the "gift of the fish bag." Honor.

Therefore, in Wang Qinian's proposal, if the pride of the Silla child can be found and used by the Metropolitan Government, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to the future management and business development in Silla. For this week, Huai'an was naturally just an extra effort to explain.

Therefore, in the short term, there is no longer any need to worry too much about the situation in Silla. You only need to wait until the earth-shaking peasants riot a few years later, and then wait for an opportunity to act; thinking of this, Zhou Huaian mentioned The pen wrote down some precautions and key points, so that people can be transported to the north by sea, so as to avoid unnecessary losses caused by unexpected events.

PS: Strictly speaking, the one-eyed dragon under this time and space will have to face the besieged by the four forces. If you have time, you can find the map of Zhanghedong Road or Taihang Baxing Road. (End of this chapter)
