  Chapter 1300 Turning against each other

  If Lu Song cannot be linked to the Central Plains, even if he can continue to do business with the Haidong and Hainan countries while Luzon is playing, it will be miserable.

  Qin Lang didn't intend to do everything, but to use his own resources and technological advantages to build some competitive high-quality industries as his fists, such as mining and smelting, minting coins, or whaling to make wax, or logging and shipbuilding.

  Other industries such as silk weaving, Qin Lang does not plan to touch it for the time being, because he has neither industrial nor technological advantages. It must be impossible to handle the places of Suzhou and Hangzhou.

  But you can engage in entrepot trade.

  Sugar cane planting, sugar production, cotton planting, and cotton spinning, etc., Qin Lang thinks it can be done.

   Of course tea, porcelain and salt can also be produced, but it is difficult to have any industrial advantages, so it is not bad to be based on self-sufficiency.

  In the future, Qin Lang may slowly transfer over the glass and perfume industries of the Qin family.

  As long as there are one or two high-tech industries in hand, it is actually enough for Luzon's long-term development.

   On the side of the Central Plains, Qin Lang is no longer interested. His mind is full of Luzon now. This treasure land is waiting to be developed, and it can be used freely. The future is limitless.

  Take a tram all the way to the Danjiang Reservoir. From a distance, it looks like a sea, with clear water and blue sky, so beautiful.

  I stopped at the reservoir to rest for a few days. Taking a railcar is similar to taking a train, and I don’t feel tired at all. The big carriage is just like the RV.

  However, the scenery here is good. It is actually very good to come down to exercise your muscles and bones, go fishing, and have a picnic.

   These days, the fish are basically wild, and the fish in the Danjiang Reservoir are even more delicious, without any earthy smell. Although they are not as good as the red scales of Mount Tai, they are almost the same.

  After playing in the Danjiang Reservoir for a few days, I simply changed to a boat and sailed directly to Xiangyang.

   "Sanlang, the court is fighting with Silla."

  As soon as he entered Xiangyang, someone came to welcome him and reported him the latest news.

   "A fight with Silla?"

  Qin Lang was a little surprised. Su Dingfang is not a person who does not understand the overall situation. Now that the imperial court has destroyed Baekje, the first enemy is still Goguryeo, and then quickly pacify Baekje.

   At this time, Silla, who just sent tens of thousands of troops to assist the Tang Dynasty in attacking Baekje, is still an ally. Why did the fight start?

"I remember that the new king of Silla, Jin Shengman, was very grateful after accepting the canonization of the envoy sent by the imperial court. He even made a statement saying that he had ordered all the subjects of Silla to change into Chinese clothes and sent rich tributes. Why did he suddenly Fight?"

  It turned out that although Silla had always been very submissive to the Tang Dynasty, it was just a strategy of making friends from afar and attacking closely. At the beginning of Zhenguan, Silla was almost beaten by Japanese, Baekje, and Goguryeo in turn. It had no friends, and life was quite rough.

Originally, Silla had previously formed an alliance with Baekje to deal with Goguryeo. As a result, the Silla people were jealous of the fertile land in the Han River basin that Baekje had captured, and immediately turned their backs and sent troops. When Baekje was weak after the war, they robbed the Han River basin. This can be regarded as completely offending Baekje.

Although the king of Baekje refused to accept it and led troops to fight, he was beheaded by even the king of Silla. Baekje's strength was weak, but Baekje simply collapsed, and at the same time paid tribute to Japan and the Central Plains in exchange for support. .

   Even took the initiative to reach a settlement with Goguryeo, just to concentrate on dealing with Silla.

  As for the Wa country, after the alliance with Baekje, it can naturally land on the peninsula and compete with Silla for the Imna area. Goguryeo also goes south from time to time to fight Silla.

  So at the beginning of Zhenguan, Silla was indeed besieged on all sides, so we had to hope that the Tang Dynasty in the Central Plains could send troops to Goguryeo to help him contain the pressure from the north, so that we could concentrate on continuing to fight Baekje.

  This strategy is still good. Datang did go to Goguryeo, and what he did, he even went directly across the sea to destroy Baekje.

   However, Tang destroyed Baekje, which was not in the interests of Silla people.

   Even the Tang Dynasty destroyed Goguryeo, they didn't want it. What they expect is that the Tang Dynasty, like the Sui Dynasty, would die with Goguryeo in Liaodong, and then lose both, so that Goguryeo could no longer threaten Silla, and even Silla could tear off a few more pieces of flesh from Goguryeo.

   Tang destroyed Goguryeo, so they had to worry that that distant ally would become a powerful enemy around them.

  When Baekje was destroyed, the people of Silla were actually terrified.

  Jin Yuxin, the real power faction in the court, firmly believed that the Tang Dynasty would destroy Goguryeo in the next step, and then Silla would be destroyed in the next step. This is inevitable. They will not leave Silla alone after destroying Goguryeo and Baekje.

  At this time, the Bidam rebellion broke out in Silla, Queen Deman died, and Silla fought again over the issue of heirs.

  Jin Yuxin supports his brother-in-law and father-in-law Jin Chunqiu.

   As a result, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty actually canonized Shengman as the new king. You must know that when Deman sent Chunqiu to the Tang Dynasty to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, he was actually discussing with Li Shimin about the successor of Silla, and Li Shimin basically agreed with Chunqiu.

  But now the emperor Li Yin ignored the tacit agreement made before, and directly established Shengman.

   What dissatisfied Jin Yuxin and others was that Emperor Tang directly set Baekje as an economically controlled prefecture and county, and wanted to engage in immigration, and he was not even willing to rule in Jilin.

  This made Jin Yuxin and others believe that the Tang Dynasty would definitely send troops to Silla after the Tang Dynasty.

   At this critical time, Li Yin sent an **** to Baekje as a military supervisor.

  Emperor asked Su Dingfang to lead the army northward, responsible for sweeping all parts of Baekje north of the Ungjin River, and after completing the task, stationed troops on the Han River line, ready to cross the river and invade Goguryeo at any time.

  The old place of Baekje, south of the Xiongjin River, was handed over by the emperor to Wang Wendu, the deputy general.

  After Wang Wendu received the order, he immediately sent people to see Jin Yuxin and Jin Chunqiu, and asked them to withdraw from Baekje, and hand over more than 20 cities including Baekje Erlicheng, which had been captured previously, to the Tang army.

Jin Chunqiu sent people to see Wang Wendu, and said that these cities used to belong to Silla, and now that the Silla army has recovered them, they should belong to the Silla Kingdom. At the same time, he also asked Wang Wendu to defect to Baekje in the early years and help the Baekje people break Daye City. Maochi, the Silla traitor who killed his daughter and son-in-law, and the two Qianri thieves were handed over to Silla for disposal.

   But this request was rejected by Wang Wendu. The reason was that when the Tang army attacked Baekje, the two men had secretly surrendered to the Tang army and surrendered the city.

  Wang Wendu also reprimanded the Silla envoys, telling them to go back and tell the two Jin Chunqiu, ordering Silla to immediately hand over the occupied Baekje city, otherwise Datang will wipe out Silla.

  He also issued a food and grass task to Silla, asking Silla to provide 2,000 vehicles and 30,000 shi for the Tang army.

   After receiving this reply, Jin Chunqiu, who was still hesitant at first, angrily decided to rebel against Datang together with Jin Yuxin. His daughter was secretly killed by those two traitors. He once swore to the sky that he would avenge his daughter in this life.

  Besides, Queen Deman once reached a tacit agreement with Tang Taizong and supported him to succeed to the throne, but now she did this, which completely disappointed Jin Chunqiu.

  He refused to hand over the more than 20 cities he had occupied, and sent people around to contact the local generals of Baekje, Hao Qiang, secretly inciting them to fight against the Tang Dynasty.

  Under the secret instigation of Jin Yuxin and Jin Chunqiu, and even the support of providing food, grass and equipment, the counties and states in the south of Baekje quickly ignited the fighting spirit of resistance.

Jin Yuxin even pretended to enter Doului City, swore an alliance with the generals of Baekje, and acted as their military advisor. Baekje cities, assisting in defense, pretending to be Baekje soldiers.

   Things have come to this point, Silla is determined to turn against Tang.

  But at this time, Jin Chunqiu is not a king after all.

  The newly enthroned Jin Shengman, the Noble Council and the White Council ordered Jin Chunqiu and Jin Yuxin to obey the will of the Tang Dynasty, hand over the city, and allocate grain and grass to help the Tang Dynasty, and sent troops to assist in the sweeping of Baekje.

   As a result, when the Wang Order was passed down, Jin Chunqiu ignored it at all.

  He directly returned to Jincheng, the capital of the kingdom, with 30,000 soldiers and horses. Using his prestige, he took control of the capital city and the imperial court without bloodshed, and actually seized control of Silla.

  Jin Chunqiu sits in Wangcheng, and Jin Yuxin joins Baekje in the front line to resist the Tang Dynasty. Although he has not publicly played the banner of opposing the Tang Dynasty, he is using the people of Baekje to call for the restoration of the country to fight against the Tang Dynasty.

  For more than 20 cities including Liren, Jin Chunqiu also let the Silla defenders change to the Baekje banner, falsely claiming that all the cities were captured by the Baekje people.

  As for food, grass, equipment, etc., it is also inferred that the traffic was blocked by the Baekje people, anyway, it is all kinds of evasion.

   Asked Silla to send troops to assist in the crusade against the rest of Baekje, Silla only agreed but did not send troops.

Wang Wendu was so angry that he beheaded a Silla envoy, and asked his followers to take the envoy's head back. He warned Silla, accused them of breaking the contract, and threatened that he would not transport grain and grass and send troops for conscription. He would personally lead the troops to Xinluo. Luo asked the crime.

   Immediately afterwards, on the court side, Li Yin was obviously very dissatisfied with Silla's behavior.

  So he made a decree.

  Set up Jilin Governor's Mansion in Silla, granted Silla King Jin Shengman as the governor of Jilin Prefecture, and called Jin Chunqiu into the court.

At this time, in the southern part of the peninsula, the Tang and Luo armies have changed from allies to alienation, and Baekje, with the support of Jin Chunqiu and Jin Yuxin, has become more united. The slogan of restoring the country is loud, not only sticking to the city, but even starting to attack Wang Wendu's Tang Jun.

   Of course Datang is not stupid. By now, the changes in Silla have also been ascertained.

Li Yin was furious in the court, and directly ordered Jin Renwen, the progeny Jin Chunqiu stayed in Luoyang, to be imprisoned. , rebelling against the Tang Dynasty and other crimes, and then ordered Wang Wendu to lead his troops to crusade against Silla.

   "Wang Wendu took command to attack Silla? Why not Su Dingfang?"

   "The sage asked Su Shuai to go north to cooperate with Li Ji to destroy Goguryeo, and Wang Wendu was responsible for the task of pacifying Baekje and seeking Silla."

  Hearing this, Qin Lang couldn't help shaking his head.

   It is estimated that in Luoyang Palace, Li Yin was still complacent. The islanders in Silla were too impatient, and Datang easily made them jump up and reverse, and they happened to be wiped out together.

   But Qin Lang looked at his deployment, and it was too childish to underestimate the enemy.

In any case, Baekje was destroyed in name, but he did not engage in restraints and directly opened up the map, which made Baekje now a mud pit. At this time, the north was still fighting Goguryeo, and drove Silla to the opposite side to become an enemy. It is to be enemies with the three countries on the peninsula.

  Datang’s strength is indeed very strong, but at the same time, it is going to war against the three countries. After all, it is across the sea. It is almost April, and it will soon be the rainy season in summer. It is not easy to fight, and the transportation of food, grass and luggage is not convenient.

  Even if they can win, it is estimated that many unnecessary casualties will be added for nothing this time.

  How could this battle be fought like this, Li Shimin managed to accumulate such a small amount of wealth, and he just squandered it like this. The strategists of Li Shimin's generation were very cautious when they conquered Goguryeo in person, and they did not dare to be self-willed.

  Blind Kiba **** up.

   Don’t make it like in history again, taking Baekje and Goguryeo with great difficulty, but in the end it’s cheaper for Silla. Although the current situation is not as good as in history, when Li Shimin was in power, he punched and kicked the Turks and kicked Tie Le, and Tubo was cramped and skinned as soon as he raised his head, and the Western Turks were now dismembered.

   Ordinarily speaking, there should be nothing that can threaten Datang's power, and Datang will not rush to deploy troops from Liaodong, so that Silla can take advantage of it.

  But some things are hard to say, just like when Yang Guang conquered the Liao Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty in the seventh year of the great cause, didn't the four sides surrender?

  This emperor, he is still acting so aggressively.

  I thought that he had calmed down after being a prisoner of the country for a few years.

   But it's true, if it wasn't for the fact that his nature hadn't changed, he wouldn't have rushed to force Gu Ming's first assistant away as soon as he succeeded.

  Duo Duo is Yang Guang again.

   "Silla is really stupid. Originally, he made meritorious service in conquest of Baekje, and the court rewarded him casually, which was generous enough. In the end, Yelang was arrogant and dared to bark at Datang. Isn't this courting death?"

   "The imperial court has ordered to blockade Silla and prohibit trade with Silla."

  Qin Lang listened to the manager's relaxed and even mocking words, and knew that this might be the view of most people on Silla's rebellion.

  So Li Yin took action against Silla at this time, and most people thought there was nothing wrong with it. Little Silla dared to bully Datang?

  Of course it was directly photographed.

   A small Silla, just like Baekje, it was destroyed in one battle?

  Qin Lang heard that the imperial court had issued a decree to blockade Silla and prohibit trade with Silla, and his head ached.

First Goguryeo, then Baekje, and now Silla, the trade in Haidong almost disappeared at once. For Luzon, which has just started, the trade turmoil brought about by this kind of regional war is really serious. is too big.

   This means that Luzon will lose an important trade market.

  The Qin family has just won a piece of land in Zhuzi, Japan, and is building a free port in the concession. This free port is not only for the country of Japan, but also for business on the Korean Peninsula.

   Now the entire peninsula is fighting, and the imperial court prohibits trade. This is a big blow to the Tangjin Freeport of the Qin family.

  When gods fight, mortals suffer.

   Fortunately, Wa Kingdom was smart this time and was not involved, otherwise Qin Lang's investment would have been in vain.

  Thinking of this, he didn't have the heart to watch the flowers and scenery all the way, so he decided that the female relatives would go slowly according to the original schedule, and he rushed back to Luzon first.
