Section 428 The absurdity of history

The people of Licheng Harbor did not understand why the pirates took away the young men of their family, and suspected that the pirates did not keep their word, and their family pillars were still transported to an unknown place to be used as slaves and slaves. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The local people began to feel angry and resentful, and hatred and rebellion were brewing.

However, this potential storm did not need to be solved by the Northern Army, and the surrendering officials led by Cui Shibiao consciously and voluntarily made up excuses to appease them.

The mood of the surrendering faction at this time was very happy, and there was no frustration of being a prisoner.

Because they heard the news that the local Goryeo traitors who had first formed a gang with the pirates proudly revealed the news, they realized that this group of pirates was the army of the Southern Empire that had been trading with Goryeo by sea.

There was no need for the Goryeo traitors to say anything more and try to prove anything, Cui Shibiao and they linked the pirates with the rare giant ships used by the Southern Empire, and they immediately woke up and believed it.

It turned out that the object of surrender and submission was actually the Southern Empire, which was so rich and terrifyingly powerful.

It turns out that the people have long had a plan to annex the peninsula, and they have been planning for a long time, and they have been taking care of the security of the peninsula and conniving at the corruption of the peninsula for many years......

That's really ...... Is...... Haha, it's so damn good.

Why didn't you think about it before?

Lao Tzu hit the luck, surrender right, surrender well, surrender wonderfully, surrender croaking.

As a result, they reassured the local people, saying, "The pirates have established a country, and they are the incomparably rich and beautiful southern power that we Goryeo people envy so much." The climate is warm and humid all year round, flowers bloom every month, fruits grow every day, and sweet rice is ripe three times a year, and there are too many to feed the cattle and sheep. How rich is that country's property, how strong the country is, we have been doing business with others for so many years, we all understand, this is needless to say, right? People are not rare at all, the peninsula is a cold and barren land, the only thing lacking is people, civilized people like us, not those indigenous savages in the south, who occupied Jeju Island for today. The purpose of this is to remove the population of the peninsula......"

As for what the truth is, they can't know it from the soldiers of the Northern Army who have a strict sense of military discipline and secrecy, and they don't care.

They only care about their own future and fate, only care about whether they can enjoy wealth and glory again in the new power group, and who cares about the life and death of the grass people. It is imperative to work hard according to the pirate's intentions and try to get the desired profit.

"Rest assured, everybody. Your men go first, to build a house in the south and divide the fields, cattle and sheep, to enjoy the richness, beauty and generosity of the empire, and to welcome great things first. Think about it, if your woman is transported away first, wouldn't that be really scary? ”

If you engage in women first, that is, they will be taken away like the invasion of the Liao army, and the remaining single men and the old and weak will definitely not end well. This principle is easy for the people to figure out. This one figured it out, hehe.

This era is not the era of the Internet with access to information, what do ordinary people know? What do you know?

Looking at history, you will find that whenever the country and the nation are in danger, the people's usual tricky and clever can not be used, they will be like headless flies, stupid to death, regardless of the unpopular court, regardless of the Qing officials or corrupt officials, as long as the ruler is the backbone of the local people, a flickering and a quasi, the official says that it is good to fight to the death, the people will feel that it is so reasonable, and obey the command of the official to send them to death; When officials say that surrender is correct, the people will feel that it is reasonable, and that surrender is indeed good and right, and blindly follow the surrender.

In the course of thousands of years of human history, the common people have been betrayed by corrupted and failed rulers again and again in exchange for life preservation and benefits, but they will still believe in the rulers in disasters from generation to generation.

It's an unbreakable law.

Naturally, the antagonistic mood and storm that had been brewing in the Licheng Port area quickly disintegrated. Many people are very grateful to the surrender faction who sacrificed the city, which made Cui Shibiao and other shameless people happy, and they were a little ashamed when they were excited.

At this time, thousands of large ships such as the Southern Navy and giant merchant ships of the Cangzhao Empire had already arrived. When he came, he took the 450,000 households of the Great Song Dynasty, Mizhou, Dengzhou and other coastal areas to settle in Tuntian, and transported them together.

The Xiang army in these places had already been persuaded by the infiltration of the Cangzhao spies, and they guarded themselves on the coast honestly tuntian to collect grain and guard the coast, just so that they could suddenly and collectively escape from the Great Song Dynasty, a country that is becoming more and more like a cannibalistic hell.

The very few military ruffians in the Xiang Army, who are unreliable and usually take pleasure in bullying their poor colleagues in the camp, have been eliminated by spies before, and have even been united by the Xiang Army to take the initiative to create various incidents, and clean up with collective strength by means of brawls and assassinations.

Cai Jing originally strongly advocated moving the Xiang Army, which was useless for military equipment, to the coastal Tuntian in order to reduce the financial burden.

The military attaches who manage the Xiang Army on the northern coast no longer enjoy the treatment of regular national officers, the essence is that they have been abolished from their official positions by the imperial court, and their regular future is gone, and the only thing left is to bully the Xiang Army to make money and enjoy themselves, how can they care about the life and death of the members of the Xiang Army.

How can anyone be a fool who can mix with officials.

The military attachés were well aware that over the years, the Great Song Dynasty had many new crops, many of which were high-yielding. It stands to reason that if there is more grain and more variety, the people should have a better life. The truth is even harder. The number of refugees and displaced people has increased, and there are more and more robbers and bandits. This is all caused by the excessive greed of the bureaucrats, landlords, and tyrants, colluding with each other, and working together to exploit and coerce.

They were laid off in disguise, naturally they had no way and no backing, and now they don't ask for anything else, as long as their subordinates don't rebel and don't resist oppression and exploitation, even if they die as a powerful soldier and ruffian accomplice who can be used, they will not really find out the cause and investigate the responsibility.

It's just a minion, and if it's dead, it's dead. As long as you are an official and have the power, will there be a shortage of good manpower?

The Xiang army was tired and miserable, and they couldn't vent their grievances.

If it is for a few military ruffians who have become too big and offended too many people and have been sent to their deaths in retaliation to ask their subordinates, stimulate the dissatisfaction and anger of the overall Xiang army, and cause a mutiny or even kill officials to rebel, then it is called stupidity.

It's not bad to have your subordinates kill a few unpopular bad ass colleagues and vent their anger, which is conducive to pacifying and stabilizing the situation.

The military attachés calculated clearly, and at the same time they were wary of their subordinates not to commit murder and become addicted to find him trouble, but the Xiang army has been stable, and what they never expected was that there would be such a day, when the subordinates suddenly burst into trouble, not only daring to kill him and his cronies, but also daring to kill nearby towns, killing all his family members and the corrupt officials and bullies in the town, robbing them of their accumulated family property, and then disappearing along the coast with everything useful.

Cai Jing in the capital couldn't help but be taken aback after receiving the report.

This old thing had experienced the vicious incident of hundreds of thousands of displaced people in the southern coastal area of the Tuntianxiang army collectively killing officials and robbing the local defecting pirates, and at that time, the means were suppressed and reported, and the emperor did not know it, so he did not get angry and punished him, the one who had the idea of dismissing the Xiangxiang army in the first place. His phase continued peacefully.

Although Cai Jing was old, he was an extremely smart politician, and at that time he thought of the Tuntian Xiang Army on the northern coast, and was worried that such a thing would happen, but he concealed the Southern Incident from the emperor, so there was no enough reason to ask the emperor for instructions to remove the Xiang Army from the coast, in case there would be any more defections to the enemy.

In order to cover up his incompetence and culpability in decision-making, the old man could only secretly ask the coastal government to strengthen the management and supervision of the Tuntian Xiang Army, and at the same time pondered in his heart that the pirate base forces in the South China Sea had the geographical advantage, so they had the ability to bewitch and suddenly quickly remove the difficult Xiang army on the southern coast, but they might not have the ability to raid and remove the northern Xiang soldiers who were far away from the pirate territory. In short, there is a fluke mentality. Unexpectedly, the mutiny still happened. It happened so suddenly, so quickly, that it couldn't be cured.

can remove hundreds of thousands of people at once, such pirates are too powerful to be terrifying, and with the water power of the Great Song Dynasty, I am afraid that they will not be able to do one-fifth.

Through this incident, the old thing realized that the pirate force was far more powerful than he had imagined before, and it had become the climate, and it was not something that the Great Song Dynasty could contain.

The Liao State, a strong enemy in the north of the Great Song Dynasty, is now in a predicament, and it cannot pose a deadly threat to the Great Song Dynasty as before, these years, Lao Cai Jing has always felt that his life is good, and he has caught up with the period of being the prime minister of the Taiping, so he does not have to worry about the disaster of the Great War of Annihilation, and he is really relaxed and comfortable, and he does not want the Great Song Dynasty to be threatened by a major threat from the sea.

In the history of the Han court, the country was so threatened by the sea for the first time that it could not be governed.

What makes Cai Jing happy is that the pirates came to rob the population wealth, but did not occupy territory, they should only want to gain a foothold overseas, not hit the mainland. Even if they wanted to fight, the pirates should not have that power, otherwise they would not be willing to succumb to those small desert islands.

Of course, if the pirates continue to rob like this, the population will grow, and the army will grow, and one day they may not have the strength to seize the mainland. At that time, the Great Song Dynasty was in danger.

The old stuff knows this, but doesn't care.

By then, he would have died long ago, and it had nothing to do with him what happened. Descendants have their own blessings. Whether it is a blessing or a curse, it is the business of posterity, and it will be borne by posterity. He, the predecessor, can't manage so much, and now he has to deal with it to continue to hide from the emperor.

As for the lack of population along the coast, the most important thing in the Great Song Dynasty is the population, and there are so many poor and sour people that they cannot be resettled, so the displaced people can naturally be easily filled. The Xiang army defected, but it was stupid to have completed the spring ploughing production. Fill in the population and then manage the fields, and the coastal state capitals will not have to worry about paying their taxes in the summer. In this way, the incident and the guilt of the prime minister were perfectly concealed to the emperor.

Zhao Yue didn't care about how Cai Jing was busy trying to wipe his ass for the aftermath caused by his robbery, he was concerned about the affairs of the new immigrants.

These Xiang Army is a mixture of the descendants of the old Xiang Army, the Xiang Army military households and the bankrupt and unemployed people who were incorporated into the Tuntian Army, and they are the poorest and most miserable collectives in the Great Song Dynasty, and even the homeless people do not have the freedom at least, and they are truly a group with nothing.

The Great Song Dynasty has valued literature and light military force for hundreds of years, and the society seriously discriminates against soldiers, who girl would be willing to marry a lowly ordinary soldier, not to mention that there is still no way out for the Xiangjun soldier who has been managed to work hard to death?

There are daughters in the Xiang Army, and under normal circumstances, they are not willing to find a box soldier as a son-in-law, and they do everything possible to marry their daughters.

The displaced people newly organized into the Tuntian Xiangjun used to be free people, and they had land or property in their hometowns, and many of them had small families. But a large proportion of the old box army is singles. There are forty or fifty-year-old singles with a hard life, but there are not many such people. Under the conditions of hard work and humiliation, it is easy to die when the army is in the van, and it is difficult to have a large number of men who live past the age of thirty or forty. The young box army is the main body. In short, a piece of singles.

These people first came to Jeju Island by boat, got a haircut, and then bathed several times to get rid of the parasites such as fleas that had not been cleaned up after bathing and washing clothes at their home in Tunjeonjeong...... Stationed in the camp vacated by the army on the peninsula, collectively trained, and accepted the new ideas and new rules of the empire, in the end, it is a soldier with a sword and a gun, at least with some military qualities, no matter how unbearable it is, it is better than ordinary people, and it becomes the paramilitary organization of the empire in the north, and is responsible for guarding Jeju Island and working at this time.

In fact, Jeju Island does not need to be guarded at all.

The closest to Jeju Island and the most threatening is the Wa Kingdom. But at this time, the Japanese kingdom was already in chaos, and the Japanese were either busy dealing with the Goryeo who had killed the island, or they were busy farming to make a living or fighting each other for power and territory, and they had no boats or the strength to go to sea to make trouble.

Zhao Yue is in the name of guarding the town, adding tasks to these new soldiers who have joined the empire, so that these people who come with Great Song swords and guns feel that they are useful in the new country, can find some identity, self-confidence and comfort, and can live and work with peace of mind.

Given that there are too many singles in the Xiang army. Zhao Yue changed his policy towards the population of the occupied territory, leaving behind the able-bodied and obedient women under the age of 35 and boys under the age of six in Lichenggang, and all the other men, women, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled who had no skills were transported to the Wa Kingdom to survive and reproduce.

Zhao Yue didn't want to eliminate the sticks, but just to change the survival of this villain nation.

If the sticks have no wives or no future partners to marry and reproduce their races, they will definitely be more courageous to kill the women who rob the Japanese people.

This can be regarded as a small increase in the strength of the Korean people to deal with the Japanese people.

In addition, the women left behind are also used to solve the problem of the singles of the Xiang Army, so that the Xiang Army can feel the love and warmth of the empire for themselves, and become closer to the empire, and also form a new family, which is convenient for raising the Goryeo children left behind, and strengthening the Goryeo people left by Sinicization.

The large number of crops in the peninsula's fields that are managed by no one is cultivated, as well as the extensive work of eradicating weeds and transplanting pastures, also requires manpower. On the other hand, Korean women are generally very docile and very old-fashioned towards men, even if they are resentful and unwilling for a while, they will always be better than men to use uniforms.

Besides, people will always bow to reality.

They have tasted the sweetness of being citizens of the empire, and they will never have to live the miserable days of being oppressed by others in the past, what is there to be dissatisfied with for a lifetime? Even though some women can't be the former official wives and misses, they are extremely unwilling, but under a strong system, how dare they resist?

They are actually lucky, obedient can work and live peacefully and even be very happy, but they are not like the compatriots on Wajima who live in turmoil and fighting every day. (To be continued.) )
