Daqin Fusu: It is difficult to start the battle

Chapter 15
"Your Majesty, please kill this room immediately!" Ren Xiao said seriously.

"Oh?" Fu Su frowned slightly: "I remember, you said in the previous memorandum that the Yue people counterattacked fiercely. When the head of Guizhou was out of the city to farm, most of them carried shields, and the soldiers held swords to protect each other..."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I have said this before." Ren Xiao nodded: "The old minister has been in the South China Sea for many years, and I deeply feel the difficulty of integrating the South China Sea into our Great Qin!"

"Since it is difficult, I have heard people say that if you are really powerless, you should follow the law of Chu's covenant." Fu Su looked at Ren Xiao, recalling what was said in the memorial.

The law of the covenant of the Chu State is equivalent to the Zhou Tianzi leading the princes from afar. Most tribes only need to pay the court a symbolic gift.

"Your Majesty, absolutely not!" Ren Xiao said after cupping his hands:

"The counties in the South China Sea, with their vast land and abundant resources, are indeed a great treasure of our Great Qin Dynasty! This time, when I returned to Xianyang, I brought a lot of local products with me, which have been prepared outside the palace."

"Oh!" Fusu's eyes lit up, and he also wanted to see what good things there are in the counties of the South China Sea in this era.

After a while, the eunuch ordered Han Rang to enter the side hall with several soldiers carrying a lot of bundled things.

Most of them are dry goods. Apart from this, what is particularly eye-catching is a long list of things the size of footballs, and black things that look like bamboo poles.

...coconuts, sugar cane! ... Fusu recognized what it was at a glance. The former was okay, and could only be eaten as fruit under the current conditions, while the latter was a source of income that could support an empire!

The Lingnan counties must not be lost! ... Fusu secretly promoted this "chicken rib" in the mouths of many ministers to the third place in the future planning, second only to the Guanzhong counties and the Bashu counties!

Needless to say, the importance of the Guanzhong counties, the Bashu counties are not only granaries, but more importantly, they have mastered the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and can attack the turbulent Chu counties at any time!
Wang Junlou sailed off to Yizhou, and Jinling Wang received sadly.

This is the truth.

But now relying on the current era, can it really control the counties in the South China Sea?

I remember that it was around after the Tang and Song Dynasties that the Central Plains Dynasty gradually took control of the south of the Yangtze River, and it was not until the Ming and Qing Dynasties that the land was reformed that China really took control of Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and other places. ...Wait, change the soil and return to the people?I know what to do now!

"It's a pity that the season is not right, and the road is difficult. Many things cannot be presented to His Majesty... such as prawns that are more than one foot long, big fish that can be eaten by thousands of people, and offshoots with flesh like amber... and more The endless tree of treasure..."

Outliers? ...It should be litchi... Fusu thought to himself.

Ren Xiao pointed to the coconut and said: "This thing is called Xu Yu. It has firm skin and thick flesh, and the juice inside is like milk. It's as sweet as sugar. When you drink it, the fire will eliminate food."

"The minister originally carried a rare treasure called 'Ganjiao', but unfortunately due to the bumpy journey, all of them rotted..."

banana? ...Could it be a banana?If you wait for it to turn yellow before sending it to Xianyang, it will be a ghost if it is not bad! ... Fusu pretended to be shocked, and listened to Ren Xiao's introduction.

After Ren Xiao finished his introduction, he went on to say, "There is a big island outside of Yue County, which is as big as a county in Guanzhong. If this island is included, the counties in the South China Sea are much larger than the Yinshan grassland..."

Well, this should be referring to Hainan Island, but now that the counties in the South China Sea have not been settled, there is no way to annex Hainan Island... Fusu nodded and continued to listen.

"Your Majesty, you should know that in the past, the former king of Qin had a unique insight and ordered Sima Cuo to annex Bashu in one fell swoop. Later, Li Bing built Dujiangyan, so he added another heaven-sent granary. Now your majesty is the king of the world, the co-lord of China, and should be the king of China forever. It is beneficial. No matter the hardships or dangers, the South China Sea must be healed. For the sake of the great Qin Dynasty, even though thousands of mountains and rivers are separated, the South China Sea cannot be abandoned! This is the wish of the old minister."

After Ren Xiao finished speaking, he bowed to the ground.

"I would like to be taught!" Fusu hurriedly stood up, walked out from behind the case, straightened his clothes, and bowed his hands solemnly.

There was a light rain outside the hall, Fusu ordered Li Cheng to deliver the coconuts to the princes, high-ranking members of the clan, and concubines in the harem, and asked two servants to chop open two coconuts outside the hall, and Divide food.

...Well, the taste is mediocre, not as good as the ones from later generations...Fu Su smacked his lips and asked:
"Dare to ask the county captain, what measures are needed for the great rule of the South China Sea?"

Ren Xiao said seriously:

"Your Majesty, this is exactly what I want to say. In the past, the Chu State ruled the South China Sea for hundreds of years, but it still failed to integrate the South China Sea into the Chu State... After hundreds of years, the land of the South China Sea is already full of tribal princes. If it continues For a hundred years, the South China Sea will surely become the most serious and long-lasting internal trouble in the Qin Dynasty, not to mention a single rule, but it will be even more difficult to restore the law of the Chu State Covenant!"

"During the hundreds of years when Chu ruled the South China Sea, there were two types of people in the South China Sea: one was the Yue people who came southward from the counties in central Fujian, they were Baiyue people;

"Most people from Yue gathered on the coast of the Middle East Sea in Fujian. Not many people entered the South China Sea, Guilin, and Xiangdi. They were incompatible with the tribes of the counties and fought fiercely."

"The aboriginal tribes in the South China Sea fish and hunt with wood and stone, cultivate slash-and-burn farming, and worship witchcraft. They are almost like the ancient barbaric tribes."

"Chu State followed the ancient tradition of dividing and ruling the great clans. Not only did it not set up officials to rule in the South China Sea, but it also instigated conflicts among the various clans for the sake of checks and balances, and planted many hidden dangers. All these and so on are the roots of falling into barbaric killings. .”

"Therefore, if you want to rule the South China Sea, I believe that you need the following items."

"I would like to hear the details." Fusu asked.

Ren Xiao thought for a while: "First, it cannot follow the laws of the Chu State. Second, it must migrate the population from the Central Plains to the South China Sea on a large scale, so as to integrate the groups and consolidate their roots."

... I agree with the first one, but what about the second one? ... The old man must not know that in the original history, there will be a few people who will go to Yuyang to guard the border in July next year and start to learn how to bark like a fox! ... What if a large-scale relocation to the counties in the South China Sea, which is known as a place of smog at this time? ...Hehe, I really became Qin II!
Fusu raised his eyes and glanced at Ren Xiao, who was making a long speech, and secretly vigilant in his heart. None of these big men who have left their names in history are easy to get along with. Fill it with soil.

"I'm afraid it's impossible to move the population from the Central Plains to the South China Sea." Fusu said with a smile, "But I have a way, which may solve the crisis in the South China Sea."

"Confucius wrote "Spring and Autumn" and said: "When barbarians enter China, China will enter.So I think we can follow the example of Ba and Ju stories.In addition to the magistrates of the counties and counties in the South China Sea, the leaders of the Yue people were granted the official titles of "Chenbangjunchang" and "Chenbangjungong", so that the Yue people ruled the Yue people, and the Qin people ruled the Qin people. "

"Secondly, set up a school in Xianyang, hire well-learned Confucian scholars as professors, and teach the etiquette of descendants of the leaders of the Yue people, so that they can personally come to our Great Qin."

"Third, set up a school lieutenant under the order of Lang Zhong to send him to the counties in the South China Sea, recruit Yue people to be brave and brave, and station them in Xianyang. His family members will move to Guanzhong and grant them farmhouses."
