Steel Dynasty - Chapter 587
[Chapter 587 Hypocrisy]
“What? Don’t you want to!”
Yue Yun’s voice was cold. He didn’t want to waste words with the Three Mountain King anymore. If he didn’t obey, he could change him.
He could easily control an island with a population of only 200,000.
A cold sweat broke out on the back of King Sanshan. In fact, he had no ability to challenge this army. Moreover, before this army came, the power of the kingdom was controlled by Hu Hai. Now he just wants to take this opportunity to regain power.
“Yes, yes.” King Sanshan smiled and said, “It’s just that the angels also saw it. My king has been harassed by the Japanese country. It is a good thing for the angels to drive away the Japanese pirates this time. But as soon as you leave, the Japanese pirates will be very dangerous.” They will come back soon, and the kingdom will be poisoned by Japanese pirates again, so Xiao Wang hopes that angels can station troops in the kingdom to prevent Japanese pirates and preserve the eternal peace of the kingdom. “
Yue Yun said lightly: “As long as you can obey His Highness King Qi’s order .
, the position of King of Three Mountains has always been yours. I will ensure that people like Hu Hai will not appear again. Of course, garrisoning is also within our consideration, but in the end it all depends on your performance. “
This time to seize the Kingdom of Three Mountains, follow the instructions.
Xiao Ming originally planned to garrison troops. In the past, it was the indifference of Dayu that led to the eventual annexation of Sanshan Kingdom by Japan.
Yue Yun holds the trump card in his heart, and also knows that the current Three Mountain Kings have no real power. His purpose in saying this is just to completely control the Three Mountain Kings.
Although the Three Mountains Kingdom will be incorporated into the territory of the feudal state this time, Xiao Ming currently has no redundant officials to send to the island, so the Three Mountains King will still serve as the ruler of the island, and will be supervised by the garrison on the island. The kingdom truly became the first overseas colony of the Chongqing Kingdom.
“My little king obeys the angel’s command.” The three mountain kings were overjoyed.
When Hu Hai was on the island, he was just a puppet. Now that he truly has the power of the king, he doesn’t care who he pays tribute to.
Yue Yun nodded with satisfaction. He was satisfied with the attitude of the three mountain kings, otherwise he would have to spend more time to find another king.
Next, Yue Yun and the three mountain kings determined the tribute materials.
After the Japanese occupied the Sanshan Kingdom, the Sanwang Kingdom provided a large amount of food to the Japanese every harvest season.
Although there are only 200,000 people on the island, because of the pleasant climate on the island, the food harvest is abundant every year, and the harvest is quite considerable.
“The angel came at the right time. The rice in this field is about to be harvested. This food can be sent to Qingzhou. I hope the angel can say a few good words for the little king in front of King Qi.” King Sanshan said.
Yue Yun briefly talked about the situation in Qingzhou when communicating with him, and now he also has some understanding of Qingzhou.
“It’s natural. As long as the food arrives in Qingzhou, His Highness will be very happy, and your status will become more and more stable.” When he landed, Yue Yun noticed the rice in the field. The ears of the rice were already turning yellow. Ready to harvest immediately.
When the Three Mountain Kings heard this, they expressed their thanks again.
In addition to rice, another source of income for the Three Mountain Kingdom is fishing. Yue Yun went back this time to teach the craftsmen of the Three Mountain Kingdom the trawling technology.
In this way, the Three Mountain Kingdom can continue to provide seafood to Qingzhou.
After talking about the supply of food, Yue Yun finally talked about building a bastion. Since it was decided to garrison the army, the bastion must be built.
The reason is very simple. This time he only plans to station a thousand troops on the island. With these thousand troops combined with the defense of the bastion, even if the Japanese pirates attack here, reinforcements will have time to come to support.
After all, there will be food in the bastion and artillery on the wall, and a thousand people will be enough to resist the Japanese pirates for a period of time.
After explaining the island’s plan clearly, Yue Yun was invited by the Three Mountain Kings to have a dinner together. He had arrived in the morning and now it was night, so he could only rest on the island.
The next day, he sent a warship back to send back the news of the occupation of the Sanshan Kingdom.
Five days later, the news of the capture of the Shanwang Kingdom reached the Qingzhou Prefecture.
“Can the Three Mountain Kingdom provide 600,000 shi of food for Qingzhou this time?” Pang Yukun said in shock.
Fiji was confused, “Your Highness, Chang’an also has tribute records from the Sanshan Kingdom. The Shanwang Kingdom only paid tribute to some corals and gold and silver statues. Why did it provide so much food to Your Highness this time?”
“This is not the time. At that time, the Sanshan Kingdom was a vassal state of Dayu, but now it is our colony.” Xiao Ming said lightly, and now the status of the Sanshan Kingdom in his heart is only in this category.
After all, this is a country independent of Dayu, and the people do not yet identify with Dayu. However, after he implements education on the island, this place will eventually become the Hawaii of Dayu, not the Hawaii of Japan.
Fiji had just come into contact with the concept of colonies. He said: “Your Highness, is this appropriate? The way to conquer the world should be kingly rather than tyrannical. If we do not follow the way of mercy, then people will lose their hearts. In the future, many foreign countries will regard Dayu as the dynasty. “Shangguo.”
Hearing this, Xiao Ming frowned and said: “Mr. Fei Ge, the way to govern the world should be kingly rather than tyrannical, and the way to dominate the world should be tyrannical instead of kingly. Now that the world is undecided, this kingly way Is it too early? Moreover, the surrounding barbarians are afraid of power and have no morals. Our country of Chongqing has been very kind to the surrounding barbarians, but we are often bullied by them when we are poor and weak. At this time, have they ever thought about treating the surrounding barbarians? The kindness of Chongqing to them.”
“Your Highness, this…” Fiji was immediately speechless.
After a pause, Xiao Ming said: “You keep saying kingly, why did the kings of the Chongqing Kingdom treat the people like a dog, but treat the barbarians like honored guests.”
Fiji’s face turned white and red, red and white again, This time Xiao Ming seemed to be very angry, and he lamented in his heart. He finally understood why Qingzhou was so unique, because Xiao Ming’s ideas were already very unique.
When Pang Yukun saw Fiji being scolded, he swallowed his words. In fact, he and Fiji had the same views. Now that Fiji blocked the knife, he stopped talking.
Xiao Ming was originally very happy with the news that the Three Mountains Kingdom had been obtained, but at this time everything was destroyed by Fiji. He waved his hand and asked Fiji and Pang Yukun to go back.
What Fiji said this time was full of the so-called benevolence and morality of Confucianism, but the prevailing rules in the Age of Discovery were more barbaric than anyone else, and what he was most indignant about was that history from ancient times to the present has been filled with Fiji’s kind of people who “would rather be with outsiders than others.” The idea of being a domestic slave”.
In fact, many people misunderstood the tribute matter and thought that the Great Yu State took advantage. In fact, this was not the case, because after each tribute, the Great Yu State would give several times the value of things to the envoys of the vassal state for them to take back.
Even in the Ming Dynasty, the Japanese country took advantage of paying tribute, and even paid tribute twice a year, because this was a sure-profit business for the Japanese country. It was like giving a hundred yuan to someone and shouting “boss”, and then being dismissed. The man who called me boss happily gave this man 10,000 yuan, which was extremely stupid.
Because of this, he now came to this era to break this cycle of thinking. From now on, Dayu will not be a hypocrite, but a real villain. He will conquer and plunder externally and be merciful at home, because in his view, This is a normal country.
However, Fiji’s words also made him finally figure out why the dynasties changed and the people had no nostalgia for the court. In fact, the people have a strong balance in their hearts. Since you treat me as a national scholar, I will repay you as a national scholar. If you treat me with carelessness, I He must be revenged against the enemy.
