Pirates, or pirates, refer to robbers who specialize in robbing other ships at sea. They are the same nature as 6 robbers who are active on the ground. This is an ancient activity. Since the ship sailed, there have been pirates in the river and pirates in the sea.

Just as water bandits are robbing in river sections with busy shipping, pirates are naturally robbing in the sea where ships pass. With the navigation technology of this era, pirates are all active in coastal waters.

Some pirates are fishermen, and once they encounter a weak ship, they can kill and rob people at any time; some are waiting specifically for economically prosperous harbor cities or routes, becoming full-time robbers.

When it comes to pirates in East Asian waters, many people think of Japanese pirates first. In fact, there are many sources of pirates in East Asian, and for Japan, they are also victims.

When Zhang Yu was in Japan, Simada, the village owner of Anbu, introduced the national conditions of Japan to him. The content of the conversation included pirates on the coast of Japan. The sources were about four: the wealthy minions of various coastal areas of Japan, Silla/Baiji pirates, the Southern Barbarian pirates, and the Sushen pirates.

When the wealthy families in the coastal areas of Japan see merchant ships passing through the waters in front of them, they will inevitably have the intention to instruct fishermen under their jurisdiction and boatmen to attack ships and kill people and rob. This is a normal thing.

The Silla/Baoje pirates are similar. Silla and Baekje have frequent sea exchanges with Japan, and ships travel between the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese archipelago, so they become Silla. In the eyes of some wealthy families in the coastal areas of Baekje, it is natural that it is natural to play a pirate from time to time.

There are islands in the waters south of Zhuzida Island in Japan. Japan calls the islanders the southern barbarians. These islanders often take boats north to harass the various vassal states on Zhuzida Island. Most of the haunted areas are concentrated on the south side of Zhuzida Island.

"On the south side? Isn't the sea area that the fleet must pass through is also there? This time I went to Japan, did you encounter any ships in the waters southwest of Zhuzida Island?"

Yuwen Wen asked, the so-called southern island in which the "Southern Barbarian Pirates" live in Japan should refer to the Ryukyu Islands south of Kyushu Island (Zhu Zida Island). The indigenous people on the island were still in the primitive tribal form at this time.

"When we arrived at the southwest side of Zhuzida Island this long voyage, we did not see a single sailing board." Zhang Yu answered truthfully. Seeing that the man-master did not ask, he continued the topic he had not finished.

In addition to these three types of pirates, there is another type of pirate, which is active in the northwest coastal waters of the island where the capital of Japan is located. These pirates seem to come from the extremely cold land west of the sea. Simada and others quote classics from the Central Plains and call them Sushen pirates.

In the pre-Qin period, the Central Plains called the three major ethnic groups in the northeast, Sushen, Yuiba, and Donghu. The name that continued by the Sushen clan was "Wuji" during the Yuan and Wei dynasties, and is now also called "Mirai".

Many Marine tribes conquered Goguryeo in Liaodong and the northern part of the peninsula. In order to avoid the enslavement of Goguryeo, some tribes migrated northward. Simada and others believed that it was very likely that one of these Sushen (Mihe) tribes came to the coastal area north of Goguryeo, built a boat and crossed the sea to settle in the northwest of the island of Japan.

These sporadic tribes basically fished in that area, and occasionally ships walked southwest along the coastline, conflicting with ships traveling between Japan, Baekje and Silla.

Hearing this, Yuwen Wen remembered the famous "Daoyi Invasion" in Japanese history. It was the Northern Song Dynasty in the Central Plains. At that time, Japan had long been renamed Japan. Its Zidao was once attacked by powerful pirates.

The pirates came in full force, attacking the coastal villages of Beizhu Zidao, looting property and population, and even attacking the berthed ships in Hakata Bay, causing chaos and dispersion to leave in the northern coastal areas of Zhu Zidao.

The Japanese court was so excited that it was crying after being attacked. Later, it was roughly clear about the origin of this group of pirates: they were Jurchen tribe pirates in the northeastern Central Plains, and the Goryeo people called him "Daoyi".

Yuwen Wen only felt his eyes open when he thought of this: your hunting range is not limited to the mountains and forests in the northeast, and they all ran to the sea!

"Master Lang, Sima Village Master privately confessed that we are getting closer to Minister Su and I am afraid that the more jealous we will attract some people, and then the other party will be very likely to attack."

"How do you say this?"

"The Lord of the Lang knows that Suwo has always had close relationships with the so-called "sending people". Among the people who come, there are not only those who come from Central Plains, but also many people who come from Baekje and Silla."

"You...Sima Village Master means that the closer we have to Suwo and Mazi, the more restless the people in Baekje will be, and they will find ways to stop them later?"

"Yes, although the Sima village master did not say it clearly, the meaning is already very obvious." Speaking of this, Zhang Yu added: "Although the Sima village master has been living in Japan for decades, no matter how you say it, you still have feelings for the Central Plains."

Yuwen Wen pondered on the kind reminder of Simada and others, which was very helpful to him. The purpose of opening a sea trade route in Japan was to make money by doing business, but it could lead to unintentional disaster.

Baekje, located in the southwest of the Korean Peninsula, is facing Goguryeo to the north with Silla in the east, and Baekje has always had a very close relationship with Japan.

Many emerging Japanese tyrants have more or less related to Baekje. Among the Japanese ferrymen, Baekje accounts for no less than those of the Central Plains ferrymen. Suwo, who has always advocated the use of the ferrymen, is an important partner of Baekje.

Su I, Ma Zi, admired Buddhism and wanted to promote Buddhism in Japan. Before, he had been relying on Baekje to provide help. Whether it was Buddha statues, Buddhist scriptures or monks, all of them were "produced" by Baekje.

According to Zhang Yu, Sima Dao (Shen Xin Ni), the daughter of Simada and other nuns, also went to Baekje to study abroad this year with several nuns. It can be seen that Baekje has a great influence on Suwo and even Japan.

In terms of politics, Japan's landing at the southern end of the Korean Peninsula, the Renna area, was annexed by Silla dozens of days ago, so the later kings and powerful officials of the Japanese were all trying to "recover lost land", which required the assistance of Baekje.

Therefore, the economic, political and cultural ties between Baekje and Japan have always been very close. Now that Suwo Mazi holds the power of the Japanese court, it is conceivable that the Baccarat attaches great importance to its relationship with Suwo.

The "marriage life" that both parties were happy and fulfilling, but a third party intervened. The third party was generous and a priceless sandalwood Buddha statue could make the Buddha statues Baekje gave to Japan in the past few decades pale.

The third party "directly sold" Buddhist scriptures in Japan from Central Plains. Buddhism is more orthodox compared to the second-hand Buddhist scriptures taught by Baekje; the third party brought in the incense medicine is much higher than the wild flowers on the roadside in Baekje.

The third party can transport high-end, atmospheric and high-end porcelain, silk, cloth, and raw silk. What else can you send to the broken places in the remote and remote areas of Baekje? chrysanthemums?

Thinking from the perspective of others, if someone desperately gives gifts to Yuchi Chifan, making the beauty feel happy and obsessed, then Yuwen Wen, as her husband, can only draw his sword and chop people.
