Chapter eight hundred and seventy third expedition
During the Japanese reigns, Heian Kyo gave orders, more than 60 counties and states in Japan, major noble manors, and a large number of warriors gathered with Heian Kyo to jointly defend the army from the Tang Dynasty.
And at this moment, Jinsan and Jeju Island had already begun to prepare for mobilization.
As a horse-raising land of the Tang Dynasty and a place for training cavalry, Jeju Island did not have many troops, only more than 5,000, and Tai-half was still a groom, so it could only support two thousand people.
Jinshan City, the Kyushu Island, which originally belonged to Japan, is now renamed Jinshan Island, integrating 20,000 to 30,000 Japanese people on the island. Then, from Liaodong and Goryeo, a large number of Han people and Bohai people have moved to 200,000.
The digging of the Rhino-Ka Gold Mine cost tens of thousands of people. In order to suppress miners and maintain order, the army in Jinshan City exceeded 20,000, including nearly 10,000 patrols and police officers.
Thanks to the refining of gold mines and the prevalence of transit trade, Jinshan City developed rapidly and became the pillar of the Tang Dynasty in Northeast Asia.
Zhang Yin failed the imperial examination and returned to Jinshan. After returning to Jinshan, he was hired by Jinshan City and became the magistrate. However, in Shaofu Temple, he was a doctor in the overseas department and belonged to the sixth rank official.
Although the official position is very high, it has its limitations: it can only be promoted in Shaofu Temple.
The Shaofu Temple Minister was only a third-rank official, so he had no good future for becoming a Jinshi. The Minister of the Secretariat was a natural result, and the prime minister could also expect one or two.
More importantly, he can only be regarded as the emperor's personal minister, and he is even more short-lived.
There are eight new counties in Jinshan City. The one he is located in is a north-facing county? The meaning is to the north of Jinshan City, surrounded by the sea on the left? The mountains on the right? It is a very large county with arable land.
It is said that as the population of Jinshan City increases, it will inevitably migrate northward? Leaving this southern mountainous area, yearning for the boundary with more fields and plains.
"Zhang County Magistrate Zhang? Zhang County Magistrate Zhang—" While staying with people to tamp the city wall? A cavalry ran from the southern road, panting.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Yin didn't put on any airs. He was the magistrate? He didn't even have a county town? There was a village under his command.
"The city lord has an order. Because Japan has overestimated its rank and attempts to resist the royal army, the counties in Jinshan City must allocate food and grass."
The cavalry gave the official documents? Zhang Yin nodded and said, "Three Thousand Stones?"
"Now all the money and grain in the county are used to build the city? How many days will it take to raise it."
"The city lord's words will only be done within ten days." The cavalry said seriously, then turned around and left.
"Mobilize troops with Japan?"
Zhang Yin pondered? He had been in business for many years, so he naturally knew the situation of Japan? The king was in his prime? The king was wise and the ministers were clear? There were millions of Dingkou, and there were still tens of thousands of soldiers. Can the court defeat it?
"Even if you fail, only the Hailong Army will be there, the Japanese will not be able to reach Jinshan Island. Why am I doing this?"
Zhang Yin laughed silently. He had been to Changsha and traveled to Jiangnan. He was naturally confident in the imperial court. Japan was naturally no match for it. In his opinion, he could conquer Japan with just the troops from Jinshan Island.
"Come here, we have gathered the chiefs of the locals and the village chiefs. It's time to do our best for the court and the saints-"
As he said, the clerks and officials in Jinshan City were surging on a large scale, shouting a slogan: "Serve for Your Majesty--"
In recent years, for the sake of the grain of tens of thousands of miners, Jinshan Island has been reclaimed and built A, Li and villages on a large scale. Now the grain is self-sufficient and can even be provided to Jeju Island to raise horses.
Jinshan Island is different from other prefectures and counties. It is only under the jurisdiction of Shaofu Temple. It is theoretically considered the emperor's private farm, and its service is naturally fast. In less than three days, ten thousand well-trained troops were recruited.
Immediately, in ten days, 50,000 stones of grain were raised, enough for 20,000 troops and the Hailong Army to eat for two or three months.
Its efficiency is extremely amazing.
By the time Zhou Kui led the soldiers from the Imperial Camp to Jinshan City, there were already many camps with abundant food and grass, and even prepared many hats.
"The country of Japan is raining and raining, which is very similar to Jiangnan. In addition to the hat, I also prepared clogs, ginger soup, etc. to prepare for emergencies."
As soon as Zhou Kui got ashore, he was greeted by the Lord of Jinshan City. However, he directly chose to inspect the camp. When he saw the mountains of food and supplies, he couldn't help but feel extremely satisfied.
"We have seen what Kingsoft City has done with our own eyes and are very satisfied with it."
"However, lord, you are not doing things for us, and don't be dissatisfied with the money and food. If you defeat Japan this time, Shikoku Island will be taken down. At that time, will it be under your Shaofu Temple? How can the imperial court take care of it?"
Zhou Kui said earnestly.
When the army went to war, Jinshan City was the rear, and the food camp was the main camp. Nothing would happen, otherwise the army would have to worry. Therefore, as a viscount, he, would seek envoys, but instead, he would appease Jinshan City.
"How can the lower official be so ignorant?" The Lord of Jinshan City shook his head repeatedly and smiled from the bottom of his heart: "This is what the young mansion should do. Besides, if the army goes to war and provides food and fodder, it will be considered a merit."
"That's good!" Zhou Kui felt relieved. As long as the rear was stable, he would have nothing to worry about.
The army rested for two days, replenished the food, grass and supplies, and then set out to conquer the traitor, the Japanese court.
At the end of June, Tokyo seemed particularly lively with the gathering of summer grains from all over the country. Food was the foundation of commerce, and the entire Song Dynasty also slowed down a lot because of the import of summer grains.
"Your Majesty, Huainan is recovering now and the taxes provided are increasing day by day. I believe that in less than two years, the court will be able to have a lot of surplus food."
Zhao Pu smiled slightly and said softly to Zhao Kuangyin in a red robe.
"Hey, if I hadn't been a little aggressive in the beginning of spring this year and ignored the Khitans and failed, I guess I could have reversed it next year and the Ministry of Revenue would be much more abundant."
Zhao Kuangyin shook his head, blamed himself a little, and then said happily: "I heard that the southern country has not stopped recently. He has actually been on an expedition to the Japanese country thousands of miles away to fight. If he is defeated, that would be great."
"The king of the southern country is young and energetic, always majestic and always fights all year round. Fortunately, it is a wealthy place in the south, otherwise the people would have been resentful and thieves would have risen."
"Your Majesty said so much!" Zhao Pu exclaimed, and then said, "As long as our treasury is full, we can rush our troops south to rescue the people."
"As for Japan, I heard that the country has millions of people, although the land is barren, it is still a big country. The Tang Dynasty is not so easy to defeat it. If it is year after year, its treasury will inevitably be overwhelmed."
