Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 911 Who does things that are useless? [Ten thousand words, can I ask for a ticket? 】

The power of the Tang Dynasty was so powerful that no one in the world could resist it.

Fang Jun never thought that if he participated in the war of Lin Yiguo, he would be able to defeat the Chenla army. This is not arrogance, but self-confidence.If it is said that the nomads on the northwest grasslands may still have the power to fight against the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, then these countries in Southeast Asia that have grown up bathed in the culture of the Han nationality have existed like scum from ancient times to the present.

In fact, it is not just the Tang Dynasty, but any unified Central Plains dynasty in history has crushed these small southeastern countries in terms of military strength. Teach them to be human anytime, anywhere!

The navy under his command now has no less than 3000 people even if they are elite, and they are equipped with heavy armor and thunder. This kind of strength is enough to destroy a country without any effort in front of these small countries in Southeast Asia.

Of course, people die in war, and a soldier's horse leather shroud is nothing, but the life of every soldier must die with value, which can bring benefits to the country and enough compensation for his parents, wives and children.

Then, Fang Jun will have to weigh whether the losses he may suffer by helping Lin Yiguo resist the enemy's invasion are within the range he can bear.If he can bear such a loss and can get satisfactory compensation from Lin Yiguo, then this battle can be fought.

On the contrary, Fang Jun could even destroy Lin Yiguo without hesitation!

Don't talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, between countries, everything is a balance of interests...

Seeing Fang Jun deep in thought, Fan Zhenlong immediately became nervous.

Not long after the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, because Linyi had not paid tribute to Chang'an for a long time, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty sent the general Liu Fangnan to conquer Linyi.Liu Fang led the army all the way to the capital of Linyi, and took away the eleven golden gods who worshiped heaven and earth in the temple. After that, they retreated.In the first year of Daya, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty sent troops to the south again. That time, Linyi Kingdom was destroyed, and the territory of Linyi Kingdom was divided into three counties. Fortunately, the Sui Dynasty was in trouble, and the army had to return.

Under the leadership of Fan Fanzhi, Lin Yiguo had just returned to the country after a bloody battle.

After that, the Tang Dynasty was established. The king of Linyi took advantage of the national prestige and was destroyed twice by the Sui Dynasty. He never dared to make another mistake. He paid tribute every year, trying to repair the broken relationship...

However, the relationship between Linyi and the Han people has always been stiff and indifferent. On the contrary, the exchanges between the people are increasing day by day, and the contacts between merchants and merchants are constant.

This time, the army of Chenla pressed the border and went straight to the capital. With the military strength of Linyi Kingdom, it was absolutely irresistible, and the country was about to perish again.Fan Fanzhi was desperate, so he had to go to Jiaozhou General Manager's Mansion and asked the Tang army to go south with a lot of money to help Lin Yiguo resist Chenla's attack.

Who knows if the Jiaozhou Governor's Office will send troops here?

The arrival of Fang Jun is like the guidance of the gods, maybe this means that Lin Yiguo's life should not die!
Can Fan Zhenlong let this opportunity slip through his fingers?
If it was really because he failed to persuade Fang Jun, and the Jiaozhou Governor's Mansion could not send troops, which led to the destruction of Lin Yiguo, then Fan Zhenlong could only apologize with death, otherwise what face would he have to meet his ancestors?
Although the Han people repeatedly destroyed Lin Yiguo, most of the reasons were that Lin Yiguo thought that he didn't need to look at the faces of the Han people, but every time he was severely beaten by reality. In front of the Han army, no matter how brave the Zhan people of Linyi Kingdom were Anyone who dares to sacrifice is nothing more than a mantis holding a chariot in front of him, and disappears into ashes...

Fortunately, Linyi Kingdom was too far away from the Central Plains of the Han people, which made the Han people look down on this small piece of land, and every time they withdrew after occupying it, the people of the Zhan nationality could successfully restore the country every time.

But if it is destroyed by Chenla, which is close at hand, then all the people of the Cham people will have to flee all over the world, and the people of Chenla will kill all the people of the Cham people to achieve their desire to occupy this land for a long time...

"Lord Hou, Linyi Kingdom and Tang Dynasty have the same origin and the same clan. They have always admired the culture of the Central Plains and have always been close to the Central Plains. The Han people who do business in Linyi are treated the same as the Zhan people. Counting up to 500 years, we They are all descendants of the Han people! You can’t just watch Linyi being destroyed by Chenla, the Jimie tribe are all savages who drink blood!”

Fan Zhenlong couldn't help but cry out in grief, sincerely, Qiqing is above.

In fact, he is just talking nonsense...

The state of Linyi was originally Xianglin County in Rinan County in the Han Dynasty. General Fubo Ma Yuan opened the southern border of Han Dynasty and set up this county.In the great chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty, Gongcao District even killed the county magistrate and established himself as the king, and the country has been established since then.It has been passed down for several generations. After that, the king had no heirs, and his nephew Fan Xiong was made king.

It can be said that there are many descendants of Han people in Linyi Kingdom, but the royal family of Linyi has no blood relationship with Han people at all.

Fang Jun chuckled, is my elder brother a history rookie?
Since you fooled brother, don't blame him for being too ruthless...

"Brother Fan, it's not because the Marquis is unwilling to help, but the soldiers under the Marquis' command are the Royal Navy of the Tang Emperor's private guards. The Marquis has the right to order, but not the right to start a frontier quarrel. Helping the Linyi Kingdom resist foreign humiliation, it is inevitable that soldiers will be killed or injured. How will the Marquis explain to His Majesty the Emperor? Besides, Linyi and Chenla are thousands of miles away from the Tang Dynasty. "

Fan Zhenlong was taken aback for a moment, then gritted his teeth.

He is a smart man, and his father, Fan Fanzhi, has always placed high hopes on him because of his wisdom and determination in handling government affairs.

The soldiers were killed or injured, and they couldn't explain to the Tang emperor, that is, Lin Yiguo should bear the post-war pension; Who knows more about time...

Fan Zhenlong said without hesitation: "Don't worry, Lord Hou, if there are casualties in the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, Lin Yiguo is willing to pay ten times the pension stipulated by the Tang Dynasty. As the military expenses of the Tang army, all the food, grass and weapons are provided by Lin Yiguo. At the same time, I will also give the Lord Hou [-] Guan as a thank you gift."

Pensions are mine, food, grass and weapons are also mine. You take back the [-] guan and have an account with the court, and [-] guan is the reward you promised to send troops, which is your net income...

I have to say that Fan Zhenlong really does everything.

It's just a pity that he underestimated Fang Jun's appetite...

Fang Jun laughed dumbfounded.

Fifty thousand pennies just want your brother to work for you?
Hehe, as long as my brother is willing, he can earn millions in minutes...

He shook his head and said: "Brother Fan misunderstood, I am a courtier of Datang, and I am loyal to His Majesty. How can I participate in the war between the two countries for a little self-interest? This is not in the interests of Datang. Moreover, this The reason why Hou led the fleet to Linyi country this time is because he came with a mission, mainly to buy 100 shi of rice seeds that are ripened three times a year, and [-] million shi of rice..."

Rice seeds are not the same as rice. Complete rice seeds can be planted in the ground to grow rice. Rice is husked rice that can only be eaten, but nothing can grow out of it...

Fan Zhenlong was astonished and said: "It is only in recent years that our country has discovered rice seeds that can be harvested three times a year and have an extremely high yield. Has there even been a rumor about the Tang Dynasty?"

Fang Jun's heart skipped a beat, what the hell!

Now there is really Champa Rice!
Finally, I have reached the field I am familiar with. Regarding agricultural matters, Fang Jun can instantly kill all farmers in this era!Champa rice is such a famous variety, how could he not know the details?
Although Champa Rice is named after Champa, it is actually native to the Indian Peninsula, and later spread to the Malay Peninsula, and then it was introduced to China at the end of the Tang Dynasty, and was promoted on a large scale in the Song Dynasty.

Regardless of the excellent variety of Champa rice, in fact, the food in Linyi, Chenla, Siam and other countries is not high. Why?These "savages" are very lazy, and they don't know how to do intensive farming at all, and they don't bother to do intensive farming. Anyway, this place has plenty of water and the climate is suitable, so you can get food no matter what you do, so what are you doing?
The cultivation is extensive and there is no irrigation measures. The rice is planted directly in the ground and left to grow naturally. Thinking about it, you know that the yield can be high...

Naturally, Fang Jun couldn't show any urgency in front of Fan Zhenlong, so he pretended to be calm and said, "I just heard about it from an Arabian Hu businessman, so this time, when I continue to train sailors, I come to have a look. , I didn’t expect it to exist, did you?”

Fan Zhenlong regretted everything.

It's not that he is reluctant to part with rice seeds, but that there are very few such rice seeds in Lin Yiguo, and it costs ten thousand stones at once...

But compared with Guo Zuo, what is it?

Fan Zhenlong made up his mind, since he wanted to satisfy the Marquis, who held the military power, then don't push the people around so hard and agree to it, just take one step and calm him down!
Gritting his teeth now, Fan Zhenlong said grandly: "No problem, 100 shi rice seeds are my friend, Lord Hou, and I will give it to you for free! As for the [-] million shi rice, after the Chenla army retreats, the Hou Ye only needs to pay It's half price!"

　[-] words, can I ask for a ticket?You are not stingy with rewards, the younger brother is deeply grateful, there is nothing to repay, I can only promise each other with my body, and I hope you don't dislike it...
