Chapter 52 The Butterfly Effect
The sea is full of blue waves.
Ten thousand golden scales leaped on it.
A snow-white sail shadow, walking forward in the flash of golden light.
Since the fifth year of Xianqing in the Tang Dynasty, Baekje and the Japanese have been conspiring to join forces to attack Silla.
But things in the world are impermanent.
Brother Zhongda finally pushed the Japanese to gather all their troops, but he never thought that Emperor Qiming would die of illness in Kyushu.
After that, the country of Japan experienced great power changes and turmoil.
In Japan, it is not a monolithic part.
If there are hawks like Zhongda Brother, there are conservative doves.
Even a faction that stands in the middle and wants to be at the best of both sides.
After months of turmoil and all the situation is clear, Baekje has already turned over.
Baekje was destroyed by the Tang Dynasty.
Not to mention joining troops to attack Silla, even Baekje no longer exists.
This situation caused the original war-oriented Zhongda brother to be questioned and attacked by the nobles in the Japanese country.
Fortunately, the ghost room helped the letter to Kyushu at that time, and made great contributions to help Baekje restore the country.
It also shows that the Tang army had only more than 10,000 troops in Baekje.
How can Japan fall behind such a good thing of getting a bargain?
After a power game, the opinions were finally unified within the Japanese nobles.
Help Baekje Buyufeng restore the country.
Fuyufeng is the proton of Baekje who was placed in Japan.
The Japanese upper class were very familiar with them.
If this person succeeds to the throne and becomes the King of Baekje, it will be of great benefit to the Japanese in the future.
Just like the Central Plains sent protons to each other during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
If the proton who grew up in his country returns to the kingdom, the national policy will be inclined toward Japan in the future, and the Japanese's political speculation will be taken back a hundred times.
In order to achieve this strategic goal, Zhongda brother made great sacrifices and concessions.
Originally, he had the opportunity to succeed to the throne as the new king after Emperor Qiming's death.
But after this incident, he took the initiative to give in and the Emperor and Takashi succeeded to the throne.
He is the Emperor of Takashi.
Later history books have obscure and melodious words about Gaoshi, and a period of history has been hidden.
This matter has other reasons, so it can be explained in detail later.
Another thing is that at this time, the kings of the Japanese were called kings.
Like Goguryeo, Baekje and Silla on the Peninsula, they are all kings.
In "The Three Kingdoms: Book of Wei", there is a record that the queen of the Japanese, Bei Mihu, sent envoys to visit Emperor Ming of Wei. At that time, Emperor Ming of Wei gave Bei Mihu the golden seal of "Water King".
Therefore, the so-called Emperor Qiming and Emperor Gaoshi should be the correct title of King Qiming and King Gaoshi.
In Japan's "Ancient Times" and "Shuji of Japan" mention the Japanese king as "our king".
The official name of Emperor was to wait until Li Zhi and Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty were renamed "Emperor, Empress", with the sun and the moon shining together, and the two saints came to the court.
He admired the Tang Dynasty and wanted to learn from the good students of the Tang Dynasty, so the King of Wa changed his name to the Emperor.
Press these to not count.
The Japanese navy came here this time.
There were more than 1,700 warships, and more than 60,000 soldiers along with the ship.
Don't think there are few people.
Judging from the Tang system, at least half of a ship is sailor and the other half is warrior.
Behind each soldier and sailor, at least three people must be provided as assistance to help transport food and supplies.
And in the rear, the personnel who coordinated food and supplies were at least ten times more than the soldiers.
From this perspective, 60,000 people were dispatched, and at least 600,000 people were mobilized in the rear.
This is an unimaginable war for the narrow and poor Japanese islands.
It can be said to be a thrilling country.
And what is the power of the navy in the Tang Dynasty?
Liu Rengui has seven building ships under his command, each with approximately 700 people.
There were about 5,000 people in total.
Half of this is added to the Silla sailor who belongs to Silla Prince Kim In-tae.
In addition, there are more than 170 large and small warships equipped with building ships.
The strength of both sides is completely unequal from paper.
Not to mention anything else, just like more than 1,700 Japanese ships lined up along the sea like war, the scene was extremely shocking.
It is boundless to the sky and the earth.
On the Tang Army Naval Tower ship where Su Dawei was riding, An Wensheng, Asuna Daozhen, Su Qingjie and others all showed concern on their faces.
Naval battles are no more than land.
All the generals were all brave generals of the Tang Dynasty who were invincible in Land War and swept across the iron cavalry.
If it is a desperate charge on the ground, even if it faces ten times the enemy, there will be no timidity.
But here is the sea.
The boundless sea naturally gives people a sense of unfathomable and unpredictable.
The generals have no experience in naval battles.
I saw the Japanese warships gathered like ants, and were constantly approaching with the rumbling sound of war drums with strange rhythms.
That kind of oppression is not only not weaker than wars on land, but is more terrifying.
Thousands of enemy ships, white sails are like a city.
Crushing towards him.
Under your feet is the sea.
Even the most powerful tower ships of the Tang army were rising and falling with the sea waves.
A feeling of not being down-to-earth and a sense of vain surged into the hearts of the generals around Su Dawei.
"Ami, there are so many Japanese ships, how can we fight this battle?"
"Don't worry, leave it to Liu Rengui."
"You just believe him so?" Ashi said, "Even if he is really loyal, look at these enemy ships, ten times or a hundred times that of ours, how can we fight this... how do we fight?"
"Naval warfare is different from land warfare."
Su Dawei said confidently: "Winners take all, winners will crush everything. Okay, you don't have to worry too much. I believe in Liu Rengui's ability.
Besides, if he can't stand the Japanese soldiers, I have an alternative."
“What is it?”
"You will know in a while."
Facing Su Dawei who was tightly speaking, Ashi's mouth twitched with anger. If it weren't for the soldiers on the boat, and Baekje Fuyufeng and others, he would have wanted to rush up and tie Su Dawei's neck to ask.
Of course, all this is just thinking about it.
With Su Dawei's cultivation and higher his status, Ashinadao would feel guilty when facing Su Dawei, and his voice would be weaker.
In his life, Su Dawei has been controlled so hard that he can't turn over again.
Fuyufeng and other traitors from Baekje, seeing the Japanese being powerful, lowered their heads and secretly exchanged their eyes.
Many people's minds are becoming more active again.
Among them, two middle-aged men with a slightly similar face to Fuyufeng, their eyes were the most erratic.
Su Dawei glanced at him and saw the two of them in his eyes.
He asked An Wensheng beside him a few questions.
"Who are those two?"
"I am Fuyufeng's brothers, Fuyu Zhongsheng and Fuyu Zhongzhi."
"It turned out to be them."
Su Dawei nodded.
He has long been familiar with members of the Fuyu royal family.
And there are memories of past lives.
According to historical records in previous lives:
In the first year of Longshuo, Baekje's old generals, Monk Daochen, Guishi Fuxin and others made the former prince Fuyufeng the king, and launched the Baekje restoration movement, raised an army to resist the Tang army, and besieged Liu Renyuan at the Xiongjin Governor's Office.
Liu Rengui and the Silla army rescued Liu Renyuan, repelled the besieged Baekje army, and met with Liu Renyuan in the city.
At that time, Su Dingfang had been besieging Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo for a long time. Because the war was unfavorable and heavy snow, he withdrew from Pyongyang.
Li Zhi ordered Liu Rengui to lead his troops to Silla to discuss the issue of Tang army's stay and leave with Jin Famin.
All the soldiers wanted to return to their country, and Liu Rengui replied: "According to the meaning of the Spring and Autumn Annals, the doctor went abroad to exert peace and the country's favorable affairs, and he could exercise his arbitrary power.
Now the emperor is preparing to destroy Goryeo, first destroying Baekje, leaving troops to guard it, and controlling its key points.
Although the rebels are strong, we are very careful. We should sharpen our swords and guns and feed the war horses. When it is not prepared, we will catch it off guard and win every battle. In this way, we can calm the soldiers' hearts.
Then divide the troops to occupy the dangerous area, open up the situation, fly and pass the letter, report to the emperor, and ask the court to send more troops. The court knows the achievements and will definitely support and respond, and the enemy can be eliminated.
Now that Pyongyang has not conquered, Xiongjin has to give up, so Baekje has revived and destroyed Goryeo will be wiped out in which year or month.
Besides, we are now living in the center of a traitor with a mere city. If this city is lost, we will become a fugitive sinner.
Even though he entered Silla, it was like a guest. If something unexpected happened, would it be too late to regret it? Baekje's Fuyufeng was suspicious of the Ghost Room Fu, and his appearance was in harmony and detachment, and he would not last long.
We should stick to the situation and then take advantage of the chaos to eliminate them. We should not act rashly at this time."
Liu Rengui's remarks not only satisfy Li Zhi, but also praised the ministers. The development of the situation was as expected. When the time was ripe, Liu Rengui took the lead and sent someone to reconnaissance the military situation of Zhenxian City built by Fuxin in the Ghost Room.
Then, he led the Silla army to attack Zhenxian City at night, quietly climbed the wall, and entered the city at dawn.
Since then, the Tang army "leads through the road to transport grain in Silla."
In the third year of Longshuo, Japanese generals Mao Ye Chiko and others led 27,000 people to attack Silla.
Sun Ren's army, Liu Renyuan and Silla King Jin Famin led the army, while Liu Rengui and Du Shuang and Fuyulong led the navy along Xiongjin and Baijiang to join the army.
Liu Rengui met the Japanese army at Baijiangkou. The Tang army won all four battles and burned 400 Japanese warships. For a moment, "the smoke rose to the sky, and the sea water was red", and the Japanese army was defeated.
Fu Yufeng escaped and escaped, and his sword was seized.
The prince of Baekje, Fuyu Zhongshi, led his troops and the envoys of the Tara Kingdom surrendered.
This is the original historical script.
According to this history, the war between the Tang Dynasty, Goguryeo and Baekje will last until the third year of Longshuo.
But at this time, because of the flapping wings of Su Dawei's butterfly, history had long become beyond recognition.
In the first year of Longshuo, the Tang army had to catch Fuyufeng, Fuyu Zhongsheng, Zhongzhi and others in one go.
The Battle of Baijiangkou, the first war between the Central Plains dynasty and Japan in history, also came early.
Su Dawei put away his distracting thoughts.
Think about your plan again.
Suddenly I heard a clear eagle sing on my head.
