Chapter 10: The Caravan Arrives

Li Yu came to Anton with great effort, not only for the high-quality timber here, but more importantly, it is far away from the center of the Tang Dynasty, and it is a place that has just been captured. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info has become the protector of Anton, so isn't it convenient for him to act cheaply?

Taking advantage of the Goguryeo rebellion and Silla's plot against Anton, he seized the opportunity to seize control of the entire Andong and imprisoned the Dadu Protector of Andong.

From now on, there is no need to be afraid, there is no need to hide Tibet, and you can do whatever you want.

Taking advantage of the abundant iron ore in Liaodong, the excellent shipbuilding timber resources, and the ice-free ports of Beisha City and Baekje, a large shipyard was built to build new seagoing ships to develop overseas trade, paving the way for overseas exploration.

Anton is the starting point of all dreams in Li Yu's heart, and this starting point requires a lot of human resources to develop Anton's various mineral deposits.

In ancient times, there were no large-scale machinery, and it completely relied on manpower and animal power to develop various mineral deposits, which belonged to typical heavy manual labor, and the consumption of human resources was great.

Therefore, it was destined that Li Yu would not be able to devote the hard-recruited Han people to such extremely dangerous heavy physical labor.

So where does the massive human resources come from?

Naturally, it is most appropriate to use the captives captured through the Ping-Goguryeo rebellion.

The captives didn't need to eat, let alone pay for their work, they didn't have to worry about life and death, and who else in the world was more suitable for the heavy work of mining and logging?

As early as the beginning of Li Yu's planning, he focused on the human resources in the Andong area early.

The captured prisoners are not enough, Li Yu has more sinister intentions, anyway, most of the barbarians in the Andong region are not subject to the governance and education of the Tang Dynasty, and the forced conquest will be used to weaken the strength of the barbarians in the Andong region to resist the rule of the Tang Dynasty.

Why did you force that general Matsui to stage a bloodthirsty scene in front of the captives?

Isn't it because of the lack of manpower that it is necessary to use people like Matsui who voluntarily surrendered to manage those Koreans who were forced to surrender?

If the hatred between the two is not allowed to be irreconcilable, how can Li Yu rest assured that he will let the troops surrender to the prisoners he captured?

After agreeing with the generals on the matter of taking prisoners, Li Yu has been thinking carefully about the specific matters in the future, except for the banquet of the soldiers in the past few days.

The general plan has been drawn up for three years, as long as there is no big mess, there is no big problem, the key is to realize the process in the plan.

You are the leader, you can't just stare at the result, if you are not careful, you will lose everything, and your dream will become a mirage.

After thinking about it too much, his head hurts, Li Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly in front of the window, why did he come to Liaodong with the luxurious life of a vassal king?

Whether in his previous life or in this life, Li Yu is just a covetous and hedonistic supremacist at heart.

Why did you let the comfortable and comfortable vassal king of Chang'an live and go to the cold Youzhou to be the governor of the distant territory?

Now he is even more at the risk of being suspicious and condemned by his father, queen and mother, to privately recruit soldiers and horses, and also go to Liaodong, which is even more bitter and cold, to fight the Goryeo people to the death, and after the Goryeo people have to fight the Silla people, I feel that there will be an endless battle when I come to Andong.

What is it all about tying your life to your belt?

Although he traveled to the Tang Dynasty and became a noble one-word king, Li Yu did not forget the bits and pieces of his previous life.

There is no China after Yashan, and there is no China after the death of the Ming Dynasty. For Li Yu, a history buff, whenever he thinks of this sentence, he can't stop feeling sad in his heart.

Some people say that this is just a fabrication made up by the Japanese in order to weaken the national self-confidence of the ZG people, and the Chinese civilization has been passed down for 5,000 years and has never been broken, but this statement is nothing but nonsense.

But how do they know that if the cultural essence of a nation is to be inherited, it must rely on the elite of the nation.

When the elite of this nation died out in large numbers under the slaughter of foreign races, what was passed down was only the skin of culture, not even hair, only painted skin.

After the death of Yashan and the Ming Dynasty, the elite of the entire Chinese society either died under the butcher's knife of the Mongols and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, or they were unwilling to be slaves of the country or commit suicide or go into exile.

After the social elites, who are the bearers of the essence of the entire Chinese culture, are physically wiped out in a short period of time, how much of the essence of Chinese culture can be handed down?

When the Mongol Yuan and Manchu Qing commanded the traitorous literati to emasculate and tamper with thousands of years of Chinese civilization, and compiled ruling books such as "Twenty-Four Filial Piety" and "Disciple Return" to maintain their enslavement of China, they could weaken the Han people's spirit of resistance and restore the country and domesticate the servility of the Han people.

In particular, the Manchu Qing Dynasty burned and tampered with countless Chinese civilization classics through the Daxing Literary Prison and compiled the Siku Quanshu, in a vain attempt to achieve the sinister goal of enslaving China forever.

After the death of the Ming Dynasty, after nearly 300 years of purposeful and planned destruction of Chinese civilization by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, what is left of the so-called Chinese civilization that has never been broken?

Only one is left in the coat of 5,000 years of Chinese civilization, which is actually full of the essence of Manchu slave culture.

In his previous life, he saw the Qing palace drama that filled the TV screen, one slave after another slave on the left, and then a large number of brainless fans regarded the former shame as the glory of envy now.

A group of strange people who don't know the national costumes that their ancestors have inherited for thousands of years are regarded as kimonos and hanbok, and there is even a big joke that girls wearing Hanfu in public are recognized as kimonos by angry young college students and are forced to strip.

The ancestors of China have spirits in the sky, and when they see their descendants behave like this, will they still think that they are the descendants of China?

Driven by this deformed and perverted social and cultural psychology, the so-called inheritors of Chinese civilization who do not know their ancestors talk about integration and tolerance, and they are very heartbroken when they hear this.

In his previous life, he was just one of the many people who were unknown, and his heart ached but he was powerless and unable to change reality.

But now, the former passerby, and today's me, His Royal Highness King Yan of the Tang Dynasty are gradually having the ability and strength to change the heavens and the earth, will the history of China repeat the mistakes of the past?

No! Li Yu's heart is absolutely not allowed.

The Tang Dynasty was the peak era of Chinese civilization, but it declined due to the Anshi Rebellion, which finally led to the tragedy of the two deaths, and the essence of Chinese civilization was lost, and it was gradually assimilated by the West.

For more than ten years, Li Yu often said to himself in his heart: to continue the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, to let the Chinese civilization stand forever in the East, and not repeat the mistakes of the previous life.

Although the turtle still has a long life, he is only a hundred years, can he influence thousands of years of history? Circumventing the Mongol Manchus, there would not have been another Mongol Manchu?

As much as God gives Huaxia, it will make Huaxia lose as much as it wants.

China is located in the east of the Eurasian continent, with a superior natural environment, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the largest area on the whole earth and the most suitable for human habitation.

Even North America has lost a point in the overall natural environment comparison.

But next to it is the world's largest barbarian breeding center, which is destined to make it impossible for China to have a relatively peaceful external environment like Europe and the Americas.

The dispute between China and the barbarians, history has proved that it will only end when one side completely eliminates the other, or when China, which represents the agricultural civilization, rises in modern science and technology, so that the barbarians have no ability and strength to defeat civilization.

Li Yu, who penetrated the dark clouds of history, knew that he could not permanently affect history, and figured out a development path that would prevent China from being taken advantage of by the Siyi and perishing when it was weak and in civil strife.

"Look, there's a caravan coming out of the city."

The soldiers defending the city shouted when they saw a large caravan outside the city, and many other soldiers rushed to the city to stand on guard.

No one knows whether this caravan is a spy sent by the enemy or a real caravan, and the only way to be foolproof is to defend tightly without knowing the details of the other party.

"It's from Datang."

"No, it's our caravan from the Yan Palace."

The soldiers in charge of guarding outside the city approached and checked only to find that this was their caravan from the Yanwang Mansion, and the leader was not Mr. Cui Xuancui, a red man next to His Royal Highness?

"Your Highness, Mr. Cui has taken the caravan to Anshi."

Hearing the report from his subordinates, Li Yu stopped pondering and jumped up from his seat excitedly.
