Three hundred and sixtieth chapters on the eve of sending troops
The development of the situation is just as Fan Ning's judgment. Three days later, news came from the Tang County Wharf that the special envoy of the Abe family arrived at the wharf. Novels.
At this time, Fan Ning was listening to the resettlement report of the Kun clan in the government office and received the news of the arrival of the Abe family envoy. Fan Ning immediately asked Yu Xiaonian to receive the Abe family envoy.
"You keep talking!" Fan Ning smiled at Cai.
Cai Zhuo bowed slightly and continued: "Although Sa Wen looks cowardly, this person is actually cruel and vicious. After he became the chief elder, he first cleaned Wu Gan's family. Wu Gan's three sons were all killed by him, and more than a dozen of Wu Gan's confidants also died under his knife. At present, he has controlled the Kun clan, and the other four elders are timid and timid. He has actually become the only decision maker of the Kun clan."
Fan Ning was not surprised. He had long seen through the nature of a person like Sawen, begging for mercy on the outside and cruel on the inside. Such a person is unfortunate to the Kun people, but it is beneficial to the government.
However, Fanning is no longer interested in the Kun clans. He originally planned to educate children in Kunzhou, but Wu Gan's stupid actions have caused rifts on both sides. At the same time, Fanning realized that the Kun clans would inevitably be a major hidden danger in Kunzhou. The best way is to move them to Japan.
Fanning walked a few steps in the room, pondered for a long time, and said to Cai: "Go and notify Sawen, let him go to Han County tomorrow, and I will wait for him there."
Cai bowed and turned around and left quickly.
Fan Ning stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, staring at a osmanthus tree in the yard. He was transplanted from Mingzhou and actually survived and grew very vigorously.
In Fanning's middle and late-term employment plan, the construction of Jinxian and Jingzhou will be focused on solving the problem, the expansion of the horse herd, and the large-scale mining of gold and silver. These three major plans involve the consolidation of Kunzhou's rule, the complete establishment of the horse breeding base, and the financial support of Kunzhou to the court.
In addition, more than 2,000 new immigrants will be moved in next year. Resettlement of these immigrants is also a major event in his plan.
But the plan is not as good as change. The rebelliousness of the Kun tribe and the Qingyuan family's infiltration into Kunzhou made Fan Ning open a new window, allowing him to see the opportunity to get involved in Japan. Since this opportunity appears in front of him, how could he let it go easily?
Just as Fan Ning was pondering, footsteps came from outside the door, and Yu Xiaonian bowed at the door and said, "Magistrate, the messenger is here, he is Abe Raishi's youngest son."
Fanning nodded, "Take him in!"
After a moment, a young Japanese man walked in outside the door, with his moon-white hair combed, wearing a wide and short robe dress, and was very short and strong.
He knelt down and saluted, "Abe Shinji begged the Song army for rescue!"
Yu Xiaonian translated it and Fan Ning smiled and said, "Sashiri Abe who came last year is your brother!"
"He is the eldest brother of the villain, and he is following his father, Zheng Zheng and Yuan Laiyi's army."
Fanning nodded, "Please get up and talk!"
Fan Ning sat down and asked again: "The Abe army is well-equipped and should be able to defeat Yuan Laiyi's army. Why do you still ask the Song army for help?"
Sadaji Abe said anxiously: "We are not worried about Gen Raiyi's army, but the Kiyogen family's army crossed the Ouha Valley and entered the Muro Country. They are siegeing Kaga Castle. There are only one thousand defenders in the city. The situation is critical. Once Kaga Castle is broken, the generals on the front line will be shaken. Abe's army is attacked from both sides, and the entire army will probably be destroyed. My father begged the Song army to rescue Kaga Castle and is willing to give all the gold and silver in the treasure house!"
After listening to Yu Xiaonian's translation, Fan Ning showed a smile on his lips. Of course, he knew that the gold and silver that the Ampe family used to trade with the Song army was only a small part of his inventory. In history, after the demise of the Abe clan, Renai Yoshi and his subordinates made a fortune. The gold offered to the Fujiwara clan alone reached several tons. Renai Fujiwara used these gold to build the Golden Hall of the Nakazun Temple, a building made of gold.
Now the Abe family is facing a crisis of destruction, and they have to take out their inventory of gold to ask the Song army to send troops to rescue them.
“Is this your father’s promise?”
“That’s right!”
Sadaji Abe took out three keys made of gold and presented them to Fan Ning respectfully, "This is the key to the three treasure houses of Abe. My father asked me to present them to Lord Fan Zhizhou!"
Of course, the three keys have no meaning, it is just a statement, but Fan Ning is not worried that Abe Lai Tong will speak without trust. If he dares to play any tricks, the Song army will join forces with Yuan Lai Yi to destroy the Abe family.
Fanning took out a map and pointed to the territorial road along the northern strait of the Muao Kingdom: "In addition to all the gold and silver inventories, all land within fifty miles of the strait must be allocated to Kunzhou. Can this condition be agreed?"
“No problem at all!”
Sadaji Abe immediately agreed. The land was less than one-tenth of that of Muro, and it was covered with mountains and forests. It was a deserted place. Not to mention that it was only fifty miles, even if it was one hundred miles, they could agree.
Fan Ning nodded with a smile, "Then please come back and tell your father that you must stay in Kaga City. Within five days, the Song army will definitely send troops!"
The war roulette in Kunzhou started to rotate again, but there were still 20,000 Japanese workers in Kunzhou. The Song army did not dare to be careless. After repeated negotiations, they decided to leave 1,000 soldiers to guard Tang County and Han County. The remaining 2,000 troops were all dispatched, and one thousand stone warship after another left the Tang County Wharf and slowly sailed towards Han County.
As soon as dawn, Fan Ning led hundreds of cavalry toward Han County at a speed.
At noon, Fanning led the cavalry to Han County. County Magistrate Cao Shi came out. Fanning turned over and dismounted and asked, "Sa Wenke, the elder of Kunzhou?"
"Qi reported to the magistrate, he arrived in the morning and is currently waiting in the county government."
Fanning nodded and asked the cavalry to station outside the city, while he led Xu Qing and two followers to the city.
Cao Shi rode a horse and followed Fan Ning and asked in a low voice: "Is the war going to start in Kunzhou?"
Fanning nodded, "Prepare to launch an attack on the Imperial Kingdom and establish a buffer zone in Tohoku, Japan."
"Will the Japanese court cause a rebound?"
Fan Ning smiled and said, "The Japanese court has always regarded Tohoku as the Dongyi, and has never been their place of importance. The Abe rebellion has exhausted them. Once we gain a foothold in the Exodus Kingdom, the Japanese court will come to ask us. Besides, my ambition is not great, I just want their Akita Castle."
"It seems that the magistrate has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time!"
"It's not a question, it's just the right time!"
The two looked at each other and laughed.
Han County is basically a replica of Tang County, but the area is twice as large as Tang County. It is divided into ten yards, with neat and uniform buildings and chessboard-shaped distribution.
The population of the county is about 1,200 households and 7,800 people. The county is very lively, and the business is concentrated in the center of the county. Unlike Tang County, a tiled tiled is built in the center of the county, and the business is concentrated in the tiled tiled, and basically all kinds of shops are available.
Soon, the group came to the county government office. The county government office was located in the north of the city. The construction had just been completed. The construction of the state government office was being built opposite, and it was almost completed. Behind the state government office were more than a dozen official houses, which had been built, and the craftsmen were building walls.
Fan Ning walked into the county government office, and the father and son Sa Wen, who were waiting in the county government office, hurriedly came up. The two knelt down and gave Fan Ning a big gift, "Meet the Magistrate Fan!"
"Elder, please come up and we will go to the council to speak."
Several people walked into the convention hall, Fan Ning asked Sa Wen and his son to sit down, and Cai was the interpreter for them.
"I want to know, how many of the Kun clan's entire population is, and how many of them are young and strong?"
There were two Kun tribes in Kunzhou last year, one was the Kunzhou tribe, and the other was moved from Jingzhou. The number of people was relatively small, but Wu Gan's strong force infringed on the interests of this tribe, and they moved back to Jingzhou. At present, the Kun tribe in Kunzhou has only the only tribe on the Kunnan Peninsula.
Cai Zhen was a little surprised. He provided all these data to the magistrate himself. He should be very clear about it, so why did he ask Sa Wen again?
But Cai Zhu knew that there must be a reason for the magistrate’s inquiry, so he did not ask too much, but just performed his translation function.
Sa Wen thought for a while and said, "There are 4,342 people in the tribe, including about 900 young men and 2,100 young women, and the rest are the elderly and children."
The lifespan of Kunzhou people is very short, and the average age is only over forty years old. Sa Wen refers to young and strong people over fifteen years old, and he belongs to the elderly at the age of thirty-five. He is not a person in his tribe who is fifty years old, and he himself is only forty-one.
"How many sons and grandsons do the elder have?" Fan Ning asked with a smile.
Sawen patted his son beside him and said, "This is my eldest son, Atu, and there are three underage sons. There are currently two grandsons."
"The Abe family in Mu Ao and the Qingyuan family in Isaiah were also the Hokkien people at the earliest!"
Sawen nodded, "They moved from Kunzhou hundreds of years ago and have gradually been assimilated by Japan, given Japanese names, and their lives are no different from those of the Japanese nobles. They still keep marriages with us by chance, that's all."
"Where are the common Hokkien people in Mu'ao and the country that are out of the feather country? Are they still the same as you?"
"It's different anymore. They no longer hunt, they make a living by farming and fishing. The clothes they wear are not much different from those of the Japanese, but their language is the same as ours."
Fan Ning nodded and then said, "I am considering letting the Kun tribes in Kunzhou stop hunting and farming instead, and transforming from hunters to farmers. What do the elders think?"
Sawen hesitated, "Of course this is OK, we all understand that this is a matter of time sooner or later, it just takes a little time, about five to ten years!"
