[Wu Zetian] Queen's Road

Chapter 20 Conquer 10

Wu Xu pinched the oiled paper in her hand and fell into deep thought.

A war with the Wa Kingdom is inevitable, but Datang is not yet ready for the war...

Of course, Wu Xu didn't know that the governor of Xiongjin Mansion had been assassinated to death. If she knew about it, she would worry about Su Dingfang's arrangement.

Wu Dalang, who had already determined to go to the Western Regions to join the army, his eyes lit up suddenly when he heard the news of the sudden change in the political situation of the Wa Kingdom.

"Auntie, I think..." Wu Minzhi had just finished speaking when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sitting above him suddenly gave him a look.

"Aniang, I heard the news in the Chongwen Museum today that the governor of Baekje and Xiongjin Mansion was assassinated and died. I'm afraid this is a good thing done by the secret agents of the Japanese country..." Li Hong is now a young boy, and I don't know why. Not because of the influence of her cousin Wu Minzhi, this baby always likes to put on a straight face and look old-fashioned, in Wu Xu's eyes, she is really cute.

And this child was taught by several foxes, big and small, and sometimes his views on political affairs are so profound that his father, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu, also sighed.

Just like the assassination of the governor of the Xiongjin Mansion, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu first thought of the good deeds done by the remnants of Baekje, and Li Hong just listened to these two reports, and immediately analyzed that the two incidents must be related...

Wu Xu's mind was still a little confused at first, but after listening to his son's words, he suddenly figured out some key things like enlightenment.

She couldn't help but patted her son's straight back and praised: "Good son, you are so smart!"

Hearing Wu Xu's praise, the little boy blushed immediately, and couldn't hold back the serious expression on his face. He couldn't help but put his fist on his chin, and coughed heavily twice.

"Aniang, I think that the situation in Baekje is complicated now, the Japanese state has ulterior motives, and Goguryeo is eyeing the tiger from behind, so I need to ask my father to make an order, and send some troops to go there..."

"The so-called 'heavy codes for troubled times', the lands of Baekje and Silla, the lands of hundreds of battles, the people were displaced, and bandits were frequent... How can there be a place for detention under my Tang Dynasty? I thought the young officials sent this time were all talented. It is excellent, but it has never experienced war, and without the protection of the Tang soldiers, it is inevitable that it will repeat the fall of Wang Wendu..."

Hearing Li Hong's sound analysis, Wu Xu couldn't help feeling relieved.

In the past, she didn't dare to mention bloody and violent things like attacking other countries to her son. With her kind and kind heart, if she heard that she and his father not only destroyed Baekje, which violated the majesty of the Tang Dynasty, but also Taking advantage of Silla's territory, this kid doesn't regard the couple as tyrants? !

It's all right now, her son not only takes it for granted to kill Fanbang Xiaoguo who provoked the empire, but also quite agrees with Datang's move to bring the ownerless Silla into the scope of protection.

Now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also put forward the theory of "controlling violence with violence", asking his father to send a large number of troops to Baekje to maintain law and order, so as to prevent the recurrence of Wang Wendu's assassination...

Wu Xu almost had the urge to cry with joy—her son finally got the hang of it!

With this joy, Wu Xu no longer concealed from Li Hong about her next plan for the peninsula and the Wa Kingdom.

"Soldiers must be sent, but not now..." Wu Xu winked at his son, trying to show off.

However, sitting with Wu Xu's mother and son were Wu Dalang, a scheming boy from the iceberg, and His Royal Highness Lu Wang, the second fat man with unknown attributes.

The two have been quietly listening to the conversation between Wu Xu and Li Hong, the expressions on their faces are very intriguing...

Regardless of Wu Minzhi, Wu Xu believes that with this kid's ingenuity, he can understand the reason why she and Li Xiaojiu won't immediately increase their troops on the peninsula as long as they use their brains a little.

It's Li Erpang's classmate, Wu Xu really doesn't know what's going on with this kid's tangled expression, can this kid really understand such an inscrutable topic?

Thinking of this, Wu Xu couldn't help being teased, stretched out her hands to pinch Er Pang's round face, and asked him with a smile, "Erlang, what are you thinking?"

To Wu Xu's surprise, after hearing what she said, the second fat classmate did not keep silent as before, but tried to answer Wu Xu's question with the most concise words.

"Goguryeo, the lost wolf...Waguo..." At this point, Li Xian frowned thinly, with a look of disgust on his face, "The jackals and vicious dogs must be eliminated!"

"Erlang, you..." Little Li Hong looked at his taciturn younger brother in surprise, wondering why he hated a small island country so much, but at the same time he was very proud of his younger brother's intelligence.

Wu Minzhi on the side also stared fixedly at Li Xian, wondering what he was thinking.

After hearing what the second fat kid said, Wu Xu also restrained her smile, and looked up and down at her second son who was looking at her calmly with deeply puzzled eyes.

Xiao Wu couldn't tell whether her Er Fatty was born smart, or...wearing it? !

Modern people's hatred for Little Japan is beyond the comprehension of Chinese people in this era. Even after being brainwashed by classmate Xiao Wu for so long, Li Xiaojiu still didn't take the Japanese country's affairs too seriously.

And her second fat son's words are simple, but he clearly regards Little Japan as something to be dealt with quickly...

Wu Xu looked at little Li Xian for a while, and finally gave up on examining the attributes of her second son because of the violent fetal movement of the little bun in her belly.

As Wu Xu said, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu did not continue to send troops to the peninsula, but unexpectedly accepted Goguryeo's ceded territory indemnity, not only returned the title of King Goguryeo, but also rewarded the eldest son of Quangai Suwen with a title.

And the hundreds of young officials sent to Baekje soon gained a firm foothold in the 37 counties under the jurisdiction of Baekje's five capitals. They not only recalled the displaced people to their original places, but also took the opportunity to recruit many relatives. The heroic men of the Tang Dynasty served as the guards of the various government offices.

As for the position of governor of the Xiongjin Mansion, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu also followed the unanimous suggestion of the Zhengshitang, appointed Liu Rengui as interim, and ordered him to exterminate the black-toothed bandits wandering around the Xiongjin Mansion.

As expected, Liu Rengui was the unanimously recommended candidate by the Zhengshitang. After taking over the task of guarding the city, he first rectified the army of Xiongjin Mansion, and punished several senior generals who tortured and killed prisoners and condoned soldiers to plunder, and established prestige in Xiongjin Mansion.

Then, Liu Rengui personally led the troops out of the city, lured Heizhichangzhi's bandit army to take the initiative to attack with a strange plan, and used three thousand cavalry to copy Heizhichangzhi's old lair, and then flanked back and forth with the lieutenant general, defeating Heizhichangzhi's main force in one fell swoop , captured the bandit leader Hei Chi Chang Zhi alive.

Hei Chi Changzhi is also a person who understands current affairs. Seeing Liu Rengui's extraordinary use of troops and strict military discipline, unlike Su Dingfang who would connive at soldiers burning, killing and looting, he immediately expressed his willingness to be a pawn under Liu Rengui's command and wipe out the rest of the anti-Tang forces in Baekje for him.

Liu Rengui heard that the reason why the black tooth Changzhi joined the anti-Tang bandit army was because Su Dingfang threatened to kill all the young and strong in Baekje, so he had to stand up and resist.

Liu Rengui was originally not interested in Su Dingfang's banditry habits, so he wrote a letter to His Majesty Li Xiaojiu to forgive Changzhi's crimes, and let him serve in the army and make meritorious deeds.

His Majesty Li Xiaojiu immediately agreed to Liu Rengui's request, and also named the black-toothed general Ningyuan, and ordered him to lead the headquarters to serve under Liu Rengui.

Hei Chi Changzhi is very grateful to Liu Rengui for his kindness, and has been loyal to Liu Rengui so far.

This is something.

However, after subduing the Baekje pirates from Heizhichang, Liu Rengui asked the court to issue the "Tang Calendar" and the name of the ancestral temple of the Li Tang royal family, and made an oath: Dongyi will be wiped out, and Tang Zhengshuo will be awarded overseas. !

This remark spread to Luoyang, Wu Xu admired this uncle with both civil and military skills, and immediately rewarded Li Yifu, Du Zhenglun, Changsun Quan and Xue Yuanchao as recommenders.

At this time, student Xiao Wu had already passed the dangerous period of the first trimester of pregnancy, and began to participate in political affairs again.

The news from the Wa country is reported almost every three days. Wu Xu does not rely on others to analyze the information of the Wa country. He only asks Wu Minzhi and his two sons to help. Xu can also listen to Mr. Li's opinion by the way.

Because of the sudden death of Empress Qi Ming, the country of Wa was in chaos for a while. First, Soga Ishikawa Maro, who had helped the eldest brother, the crown prince, kill the powerful minister Suga, and supported the eldest brother, the prince's half-brother, Gurenxiong, launched an attack. rebellion.

After the rebellion was quelled, the Wa Kingdom's vassal state, Yeyi Kingdom, took advantage of Japan's domestic turmoil and started an independence movement...

After the troubled Crown Prince Chuda spent a lot of effort to settle the rebellion and rebellion, he immediately killed Prince Arima, the son of Emperor Kotoku, who was a great threat to his ruling status, in the name of rebellion. Grab it in your hand.However, the eldest brother, the crown prince, did not take advantage of the situation to proclaim himself emperor, but "proclaimed the system" as the crown prince, and moved the capital to Asuka City, Nara Prefecture.So far, the political system of the Japanese monarchy has begun to take shape.

Wu Xu can only lament that the timing is not right with me, and Little Japan has settled the chaotic situation during the period of her pregnancy. Otherwise, taking advantage of domestic and foreign troubles on the island, there would be no suspense to go there by boat and beat them up. well!

Wu Xu wanted to return to thinking, so she could only focus on the present.

In Japan, the country was too busy to take care of itself, and for the time being, I couldn’t think of the time when I helped Fu Yufeng return to Baekje to restore the country. His Majesty Li Xiaojiu had issued an edict to exempt Baekje and Silla from taxes for three years, and then promulgated the newly revised "Da Tang "Law" to the states.

The people in the old land of Baekje and Silla have gradually become accustomed to the rule of the Tang Dynasty.

This situation not only made Fu Yufeng, who was far away in Japan, jump, but also Guishi Fuxin and Monk Daochen who relentlessly harassed the Tang garrison at home felt that the situation became more and more difficult.

Because, after the emperor of the Tang Dynasty gave several orders, the resistance of the original residents of Baekje was almost completely eliminated.And the newly-appointed governor of Baekje, Liu Rengui, is an upright and benevolent man, proficient in the art of war, and brave and fearless. The monk's army attacked Liu Renyuan and surrounded the city of De'an.

Just when Guishi Fuxin and Monk Daochen suffered heavy losses, the morale of the army was low, and a large number of deserters began to appear, the Japanese side actually broke through the heavy blockade of the Tang army, and brought good news to the two: the eldest brother, the crown prince, will follow Qi Ming's orders. The promise made by the queen when she was still alive is to immediately send the prince of Baekje, Fu Yufeng, back to the country...

The author has something to say: Today I suddenly found that the [Send Red Envelope] button actually appeared, but I just sent some red envelopes, and when I refreshed back, the button for sending red envelopes was gone T^T

For those who didn’t get smashed into the red envelope, I’m very sorry, it’s not that I didn’t smash it, it’s that jj took it again...
