Yang Yansi arrived at the square of the City Lord's Mansion and didn't say much, he just read out the soldier reward policy formulated earlier.
Any fiery rhetoric, in ancient times, was no more inspiring than a tangible reward.
After reading out the reward policy, the three armies officially started under the leadership of Yang Yanding and fully recovered the territory of Jiaozhi State.
The army went out on the expedition and took away one-third of the soldiers in the city.
After Huyan Chijin and Yang Yansi survived for a few days, they and Yang Yanguang led the 40,000 horses under their command to rush to Miza City.
The two cavalry teams were newly created, and all the armament and training needed to be started from scratch.
At present, the main source of minerals under Yang Yansi is the deep mountains, and the base for the casting of armor blades is also in Miza.
Huyan Chijin and Yang Yanguang were eager to equip their cavalry and start a series of training.
Huang Quan's Shenji Battalion did not return to Miza for the time being, but was sent out by Yang Yansi to accept the homeless people and grass cowards sent from the Great Song Dynasty.
Yang Yansi was not idle, he was in the Licheng City Lord's Mansion and received Wang Mingcheng, who came from Miza to report the situation to him.
In the city lord's mansion, the two sat down.
Wang Mingcheng reported: "Lord Qiqi, in October this autumn, in our Miza City, the big ship built by the boat workshop has been launched. β
Yang Yansi asked: "All of them are big ships carrying thousands of people, how many have been built in total?" β
Wang Mingcheng bowed down and said, "There are a total of one hundred and twelve. β
Yang Yansi frowned, "It's not enough, I'll deploy some more Jiaozhi men to you when I go back, and order them to start work day and night, I need a thousand big ships." β
Wang Mingcheng's face was a little embarrassed, "My lord, the craftsmen in the shipyard are limited, even if you give more slaves and speed up the speed of shipbuilding, it will be very small. β
Yang Yansi frowned and hesitated for a moment.
"Mingcheng, we've known each other for almost a year, right?"
Wang Mingcheng hesitated: "Less than a year, more than seven months. β
Yang Yansi sighed: "Mingcheng, you are also the first old man to take refuge in me, you can say that you have contributed a lot to this battle." β
Wang Mingcheng lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "My subordinates don't dare to take credit. β
Yang Yansi waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be humble, I see your dedication." When the whole territory of Cochin is recovered, I am ready to divide Cochin into three provinces. There is a place in the palace that is reserved for you. β
Wang Mingcheng was stunned, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Instantly, he calmed down.
Yang Yansi is so generous, there must be requirements.
He has followed Yang Yansi for half a year, and as a person who is good at figuring out, he has figured out a little trace of Yang Yansi's way of doing things.
Sure enough, after throwing out the bait, Yang Yansi continued: "Mingcheng, I need you to do one thing to prove that you are qualified to sit in the position of the mansion. β
Wang Mingcheng almost did not hesitate to bow down and said: "Although my lord orders, my subordinates will definitely die." β
Yang Yansi waved his hand and motioned for Wang Mingcheng to sit down, "It's not a difficult matter, you just need to escort the prisoners of Jiaozhi and go all the way up the coast to Liaoguo in exchange for some Han people coming back." β
Isn't that hard?
The replacement of the population in the form of the state is unheard of by Wang Mingcheng.
Trekking thousands of miles away from mountains and rivers, just to replace the population?
Isn't that a bit worth the cost?
Fortunately, Wang Mingcheng is a Han man, and after thinking about it, he understood Yang Yansi's intentions.
Compared with the Han and the Jiaozhi people, one Han person is far more than ten Jiaozhi people.
Especially when it comes to farming.
At present, Yang Yansi is still constantly gathering slang and wingmen.
Yang Yansi's subordinates did not lack soldiers who could fight well, but what they lacked was Han people who could farm.
The Jiaozhi people are lazy and do not produce, and they cannot be compared with the Han people at all.
Wang Mingcheng hesitated and said: "My lord, from Jiaozhi to Liaoguo, the road is far away, far beyond a thousand miles. This time to replace the population, it is inevitable that the gains outweigh the losses, right? Why don't you directly transport the Jiaozhi people to the Great Song Dynasty through Yongzhou, and then transfer the Han people from the Great Song Dynasty? β
Yang Yansi picked up the teacup, glared at Wang Mingcheng, and after taking a sip of tea, he sighed: "You think I haven't thought about this problem?" These lazy people are all sent to the Great Song Dynasty, and they are easy to be debunked. At most, it can only be replaced once or twice, and it cannot be replaced for a long time at all.
The Liao country is different, I believe that the Liao people will use a leather whip to tell these lazy people what it means to be diligent.
Besides, according to my budget, after this series of wars, there is not much of a population left in Cochin.
There is a huge shortage of population, and in order to make up for such a big gap, we need to use more methods together.
Even if it is a cheat and abduction, the number of people in Jiaozhi must be piled up.
You don't want the cochins we beat down to become a wasteland because of the sparse population, do you?
So, what's the point of us knocking it down? β
Wang Mingcheng clenched his fists and said: "My subordinates understand." The subordinates are going to prepare, I don't know how many men are going to be transported over in the first batch? β
Yang Yansi pondered for a moment and said: "I remember that Hou Renbao attacked Jiaozhi, and he should have built and requisitioned a lot of large ships, collected these ships, plus the hundred ships we built, it should be able to transport seventy or eighty thousand people.
In the first batch, 70,000 or 80,000 people were transported. β
"What is the percentage of replacement? Without taking advantage of it, it is impossible for the Liao people to replace us. β
"First according to three to two, if it really doesn't work, two to one, in short, the ratio cannot exceed two to one."
"My subordinates understand."
Yang Yansi said solemnly: "500,000 people, whether you are cheated or cheated, or steal, get enough of 500,000 people." You're ready to go. β
"Five hundred thousand?!"
Wang Mingcheng was stunned, from Jiaozhi to Liaoguo, it took more than two months to travel along the coast, and it took more than two months to come back. It took more than four months to go back and forth, and 70,000 or 80,000 people were transported each time, and according to the proportion, there were only 30,000 or 40,000 people.
According to this calculation, how long will he have to change?
Five years?
Yang Yansi seemed to see Wang Mingcheng's thoughts, and he laughed in a low voice: "You are really an elm head. The ones we sent over were all men with crossed toes, and there was no shortage of sturdy. Why can't you use your brain? Three men with crossed fingers, for one Han male. Why can't one man with a co-chin be exchanged for three Han women and children? β
Wang Mingcheng was pleasantly surprised: "Women and children too?" β
Yang Yansi nodded and advised: "I don't care how many women and children you change, but you must know that the proportion of strong must not be less than half." After all, there is no shortage of women and children in Cochin. β
"My subordinates understand!"
Wang Mingcheng went out of the city lord's mansion and found the relatives of the Wang family who followed him to Licheng.
told the Wang family's relatives about Yang Yansi's promise to give him the location of the mansion.
When the relatives of the Wang family learned about it, they were overjoyed.
