Neon Clothes and Iron Clothes

Chapter 393 Chaos
While talking, I saw a person rushing up to the deck, only wearing a two-tier armor, no helmet, holding two short halberds, rushing into the enemy group like a tornado, chopping left and right, like chopping vegetables. overwhelm the opponent.The surrounding Japanese slashed and stabbed with harpoons, but his halberds danced like the wind, and he couldn't get close to him. He killed seven or eight people in a short while, and the corpses fell to the ground around him. The rest of the Japanese saw this They all jumped onto the ship's side and fled to their own boats. This man even jumped into the Japanese boat, killed several people, and took two boats before he gave up!

"Is this your disciple too?" Wang Wenzuo asked.

"That's right, it's my third disciple named Li Bo who is good at wielding double halberds!"

"Tell him to come up!" Wang Wenzuo was angry and funny: "Just drive the Japanese away. Why do you have to work so hard? What if you fall into the water?"

"Yes, yes!" Cao Wenzong took a thick rope, jumped onto the ship's side, and threw the thick rope onto the Japanese boat where Li Bo was. Li Bo grabbed the thick rope, and Cao Wenzong pulled it hard. Then he pulled him back with the rope, the master and the apprentice cooperated tacitly, and they got on the boat after three or two strokes.

"Hongdu, Hongdu, how do you feel now?" Wang Wenzuo looked at Cui Hongdu who was lying on the bed. The arrow on his right shoulder had been taken out by the doctor. His face was pale and he looked very tired.

"It's not bad!" Cui Hongdu showed a wry smile: "In a moment of carelessness, you actually fell into the way of a thief, which makes you laugh!"

"You can't say that. I am an envoy of the Tang Dynasty now, and I am not on the battlefield. Who would be fully on guard? Besides, you and I were standing together just now. The thief either shot you or me, so your arrow is for me. I'll take it!" Wang Wenzuo patted the back of Cui Hongdu's hand: "Be careful and take care of yourself. I asked the doctor just now. The thief's bow was soft. The arrow didn't go deep into the flesh. It just bleed a little. hinder!"

Hearing Wang Wenzuo's comfort, Cui Hongdu's face brightened a bit: "Sanlang, but this matter is indeed a bit strange. It is only two or three days away from the capital of the Japanese people by water, and there are many ships on the river. How could there be so much water suddenly? Thieves coming? If you dare to besiege a big ship like ours, there may be something wrong in it!"

"Whether there is something strange or not, this is something that the Japanese worry about!" Wang Wenzuo sneered, "I have already ordered the ship to turn around and go back to Nanbajin!"

"Back to Nambatsu?"

"Yes, I have already sent a letter to the Japanese, and I will give him ten days to investigate. He must give me an explanation. No, give Datang an explanation. If he does not give me a satisfactory reply within ten days, I will immediately turn the bow of the boat and return to the hundred. Ji!"

Asuka Kyo, Kawahara Palace.

"What? The envoys of the Tang Dynasty went halfway and turned back?" The prince stood up from behind the table, his face was as cloudy and heavy as the sky outside the window: "What happened?"

"The envoy from the Tang Dynasty was attacked by water pirates on the way, and the deputy envoy was shot by an arrow in the shoulder, but he was fine!" Nakatomi's voice was as calm as usual: "The envoy from the Tang Dynasty said that we would have ten days to track down the mastermind behind the scenes. If there is no result in ten days, he will go back to Baekje and tell the emperor about this incident!"

"Absolutely not!" The eldest brother and the prince came out from behind a few cases, and quickly paced in the room: "We must not let the envoy of the Tang Dynasty go back. Come here, prepare a gift immediately. I will go to Nanbajin to visit the deputy envoy of the Tang Dynasty in person." , you hurry up and investigate, you must come up with a result within ten days!"

"Obey!" Nakatomi Kamazu was not at all surprised by the fierce reaction of the eldest brother, the prince. What the envoys of the Tang Dynasty sent was actually an ultimatum: if the mastermind behind the scenes cannot be handed over, then the attack will be interpreted as a military provocation. There is no need to continue diplomatic negotiations, and military actions are likely to be replaced.

"Wait a minute!" The eldest brother and the prince stopped Nakatomi Kamazu: "Nakatomi, do you think this attack is a drama staged by the people of Tang?"

"It's unlikely! If it's an act, who will accompany the Tang people? To put it bluntly, whether it's the people from Haihai, Qiyu, or even other wealthy families in China, fighting with the Tang people will not do them any good!"

Prince Zhongda nodded. As Nakatomi Kamazu said, the people from the sea, Saitama and other noble families of the Japanese kingdom fought openly and secretly with Prince Zhongda either for the throne or for their own interests. Such a long-term military confrontation with such a behemoth or even a direct outbreak of war will not benefit any of them. They may use the power of the Tang people to eliminate dissidents, but it is unlikely to attack the Tang envoys to fight a full-scale war.

"Since it's not a Tang Dynasty actor acting, then it should be an accident?" The eldest brother, the prince, sighed, "How could such a thing happen at such a critical moment!"

"Actually, it's not surprising when you think about it!" Nakatomi Kamazu said: "The Yamato River was originally the largest channel for sending tribute from various countries to the capital. It is not uncommon to attack and rob tribute ships. Ordinarily, the evil party should not choose Tang Ren's ships, after all, Tang Ren's ships are so big, they don't seem easy to mess with!"

"It's fine as usual, but this time it's different!" Eldest Brother Zhong said, "Your Excellency Zhongchen, time is running out, and you will have full power to deal with the matter of eradicating the evil party!"

"As ordered!"

"In addition, you send a letter to Fuyu Fengzhang, asking him to transfer [-] Baekje people to Jinjiang!"

"A thousand people from Baekje go to Omi?" Zhongchen Lianzu was taken aback when he heard the words: "Your Highness, the envoys from the Tang Dynasty want us to hand over Fuyu Fengzhang, why should his people be transferred to Omi? It's too much trouble?"

"Without him, you have to reserve for the worst situation!" The eldest brother, the prince, looked gloomy, as if the statue of Bodhisattva behind him had a lot of rust.

Contrary to the imagination of most readers, most ancient countries had very loose control over the territory and people under their rule. The control area is generally a point or even a line, not a plane, even if it is only a dozen kilometers away from the capital. It is not surprising that there are large groups of bandits and rebels in the heartland area of ​​tens of kilometers, and Japan is no exception.The Yamato River from Nambatsu to the Nara Basin is the main throat for transporting tribute from all over the world. Many people who live on these tribute boats naturally breed on both sides of the river. The most daring ones are the people who rob the tribute boats. The ruler of the Yamato Kingdom They call it the villain.

Amaterasu Shrine.

"Master!" The spy lowered his voice: "The Chuanyuan Palace is recruiting soldiers, and there are also many people with bows gathered in the Nakatomi's mansion!"

"Katsuragi wants to use force?" Empress Saitama stood up, "This bastard, he's doing his old trick again! Send the order down, recruit the strong men from the territory, and gather in the shrine within two days!"

"As ordered!"

Like a frightened female leopard in a cage, Princess Saitama is scurrying back and forth restlessly. She is very aware of the strength of the eldest brother and prince, unlike those of later generations who can only write various wills, and will only hide behind the curtain when encountering real swords and guns. The difference between the trembling emperor, the emperor, and the emperor is that the blood in the blood vessels of the Japanese royal family at this time is not yet dirty, and the struggle between them is direct and cruel. A warrior who can mount a horse and kill the enemy.Prince Zhong Daxiong is the leader among them. Since the Otomi Incident wiped out the powerful Soga clan, there have been countless royal and wealthy leaders who died under him. Could it be my turn this time?
"Come on, bring a pen and paper!"

Empress Qiyu asked someone to fetch a pen and paper, quickly wrote the letter, and then recruited a confidant: "You immediately take the fastest boat and send this letter to the envoy of the Tang Dynasty. Remember, you must hand it to the Tang Dynasty with your own hands. Envoy!"

Namba Tsu.

On a cold morning with a northerly wind, Wang Wenzuo stood on the terrace of the building and looked at the Japanese people who were coming ashore not far away. Blinking in the pale sunlight.An officer walked in front of the team, and the drummer behind him beat the wooden drum on his chest, "Boom, boom, boom." The sound of the drum was dull and thick, as if hitting everyone's chest.

"This time it's a big man!" Cui Hongdu said in a low voice, his right shoulder was tightly wrapped in a white cloth, with a large bulge, which looked a little funny.

"It's the royal family of the Japanese, either from Haihai, or the Prince Zhong Daxie himself!"

"Brother Zhong, Prince? He came in person?"

Wang Wenzuo didn't speak, he walked down the terrace and said loudly: "Send the order down, line up!"

The meeting between the two parties was simple and direct. The first thing the Prince Zhong said when he saw Wang Wenzuo was: "Your envoy, you can go to the capital with me. This should ensure your safety!"

"What about the thief who attacked me?"

"I have already handed over this matter to Zhongchen Kamatsu! He is my most capable subordinate!" The eldest brother and prince looked directly into Wang Wenzuo's eyes. His gaze seemed to have a magical power, which made Wang Wenzuo feel pressured and wanted to The urge to avoid, but Wang Wenzuo forced himself to look directly at the other party: "What about our conditions?"

"We can talk about these things on board the boat!" The prince said, "We have enough time on the way, don't we?"

"That's good!" Wang Wenzuo had to admit that the man in front of him had a special magical power, able to guide the negotiation in the direction he wanted, which made Wang Wenzuo a little admired and a little vigilant: "Let's take my boat ! Bigger and more stable!"

Under the control of the sailors, the boat left the pier, raised its sails, caught the wind blowing from the side, and began to go upstream in a "zigzag" shape. The eldest brother and the prince looked enviously at the huge hull without a piece of wood. The scull was able to sail against the current, and he couldn't help sighing: "Your envoy, you used this kind of boat to win the battle at the mouth of the Baijiang River, right?"

"The boat played a certain role!" Wang Wenzuo replied: "But in the final analysis, battles are still fought by people!"

"That's natural!" Prince Zhong said with a smile: "After all, the ship needs to be steered by people! However, people who came back from Baekje told me that the Tang army's warships are very powerful. If it wasn't for the failure of the naval battle, the situation would have been in our favour. !"

"Fuyu Fengzhang said that, right?" Wang Wenzuo laughed: "That's not surprising, that guy is a liar, and it's because you listened to his words that you are in the situation you are in today!"

The eldest brother, the prince, showed a bitter smile, and he shook his head: "If I hand him over to you, what will you do with him?"

"If it were me, I would cut off his head!" Wang Wenzuo replied bluntly: "But it is not up to me to decide this matter. I think the emperor will let him go to Luoyang or Chang'an to be with his relatives!"

"Luoyang or Chang'an?" The eldest brother, the prince, laughed: "It sounds really good, but I am a villain in vain!"

"I don't know if a villain is not a villain! But handing him over is not a bad thing to you, to Datang, or even to himself!" Wang Wenzuo stretched out his right hand and pointed at the chest of the eldest brother, the prince: "Unless you still want the second Send troops to Baekje for the second time, otherwise this guy will be a trouble to your country and will not benefit you at all!"

"After the Battle of Baijiangkou, the country has absolutely no idea of ​​sending troops to Baekje!" The prince said in a deep voice, "As for Fuyu Fengzhang, his wife is the beloved daughter of our country's great general Abebirov. Besides, he is poor Ji Lai votes, if you don't give him protection, it will lose the dignity of our country!"

"Fuyu Fengzhang has more than one wife, and we all know how he treats his other wife's elder brother!" Wang Wenzuo sneered, "This kind of immoral person will only cause disaster, Your Highness, you'd better think clearly! "

The eldest brother, the prince, didn't care about the obvious threats in Wang Wenzuo's words. He smiled and turned to the west: "Your envoy, do you know? Although I have never been to Chang'an, I was also a fan of the Tang Dynasty when I was young. "Hanshu", "Zuo "Biography" and "Three Kingdoms", I can't put it down! I really want to go to Chang'an to see it for myself, but unfortunately I have never had the opportunity!"

Wang Wenzuo was taken aback when he heard the words. He didn't think why the other party suddenly changed the topic to Chang'an, so he could only say along the way: "If Your Highness is willing to come, our country will definitely welcome you!"

"It's a pity that I don't have this blessing because I'm entangled in mundane affairs! But I will send more young people to your country, they are more suitable to study than me!" The prince said with a smile: "When I was young, I heard people who went to Chang'an say that However, there are many foreigners in your country Chang'an, many of them are subjugated people, they fled to Chang'an and asked for the protection of the Holy Son of Heaven, and then settled down in Chang'an, and became Chang'an people after a long time, which helped Yu Fengzhang He is also a subjugated person, why does your country not allow the poor country to do the same?"

This guy made such a big circle, so he was waiting for me here!

Wang Wenzuo thought to himself, but said in his mouth: "Your Highness, the continuation of survival is indeed the right way in the world. It is an act of benevolence and righteousness for my Tang Dynasty to do such a thing, but I am afraid that your country will be a little overconfident if you do it. Self-defense is not enough. But if you want to follow the kingly way, disaster will last forever!"

Hearing Wang Wenzuo's words, the eldest brother Prince Zhong's face was a little ugly, and he forced a smile: "Although our country is not as good as the Tang Dynasty, the land is more than three thousand miles away, with a household registration of one million, and 20 soldiers. The city, with the sea as its pond, the outcome is yet to be known!"
