Chapter 69 Policy towards the Japanese State
Zhang Mo was indeed very active in the Wa Kingdom, and the most direct point was to help the Yamatai Kingdom unify Kyushu.
At the same time, he forced the other party to declare himself a minister to Li Ming, saying that he would pay tribute every year, and at the same time took back all the Taoist methods, as well as some of the lost martial arts and exercise cheats. However, none of them are exercises above the prefecture level, let alone the heavenly level.
"What am I expecting......" Li Ming smiled wryly when he looked at the list of loot at that time. Although there were Lian Qi scholars in the pre-Qin period, they only developed for about 20 years, and then after 400 years of development in the Eastern and Western Han Dynasty, they had the current level. Those who can be taken away by Xu Fu almost do not have a book of exercises and martial arts above the Xuan level, and the Taoist skills are similar.
However, since Qin Shi Huang burned books to pit Confucianism, such Taoist books, especially the basic part, have all been lost. Without the basic part, then the difficulty of getting started is increased several times. In addition, the surviving Nanhua, Lang Evil and Dunjia Dao, as well as the subsequent establishment of the Heavenly Master Dao, further monopolized the Taoist secret books, and the imperial court of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also forbade the folk to learn the arts, which is even more rare and valuable in terms of Taoism.
"Actually help them unify? What do you think? Li Ming felt a little speechless, after the reunification, Yamatai either tried every means to go north, or went eastward, and the result was a further expansion of power.
"Except for the men of Yamatai, the men of other tribes have been killed by their subordinates. At the same time, the subordinates brought over by the subordinates, it seems...... Quite a few were left over there. The widow is very enthusiastic and is desperate to get the favor of Huaxia Erlang...... The subordinates and Hao Lang thought that they could assimilate the Japanese people...... "Zhang Mo said slowly.
After a pause, he continued: "Daoist Hao Lang also plans to build the larger island in the east into a real immortal cultivation resort, where the vegetation is very well preserved, and there are even some spirit beasts and demon beasts. What he meant was to preserve the vegetation and natural features over there, and build enough Spirit Gathering Arrays so that both elixirs and spirit beasts would have a supply point. ”
"The Japanese people are far away from the Central Plains, and now we are watching, so we can still be like dogs. If we can't control them, we'll revert back to being a wolf. We teach them all the manners and cultures, and they will eventually attack us. This is not alarmist, you also know that they are all boys and girls brought by Xu Fu, and the descendants of the local natives, so do you think they and my Han people can still be regarded as the same nation? Li Ming asked rhetorically.
"It's a subordinate's mistake!" Zhang Mo didn't expect Li Ming to react so much, and he didn't care so much, he apologized first.
"My lord, it's good to be cautious." Guo Jia came forward to intercede, "Besides, the matter has not yet reached the point of no return, and further improve the measures." ”
"Tell me about it!" Li Ming suddenly returned to his seat and sat down.
"The lord said to his subordinates before that the Japanese country is rich in minerals, so why don't we let the Japanese help us mine and help us graze? Shen Yan also described in the war report that they mainly cultivated slash-and-burn farming, and the food they grew was not enough to catch more fish on the beach. Then simply don't let them grow food, we provide food in the past, let them exchange livestock and ore...... At the same time, it was stipulated that they would not be allowed to leave Kyushu Island, and at the same time, the work of Huaxia should be further implemented. Hundreds of years later, the Japanese people will be completely gone! Guo Jia said slowly.
"How many hundreds of years can an empire ......," Li Ming smiled bitterly.
"The lord is the founder of the empire, so the explanation left behind is the ancestral precept, and future generations must abide by it." Guo Jia said with a smile.
"You're already planning to put me on the throne, aren't you?" Li Ming immediately realized Guo Jia's intentions.
"The lord has already occupied the Central Plains, and the troops of Gan Ning and Zhou Tai have advanced towards the side of the Yellow River one after another, recovering Yanzhou and Qingzhou, but it is just around the corner. Yuan Shao doesn't look at the majesty of Hebei, the long defense line can completely drag him down! Up to now, no one can stop the lord from claiming the title of emperor and continuing to bear the title of the Duke of Chu of the Han Dynasty, but it is a little unreasonable. Guo Jia pleaded.
"Don't forget, we are on the side of the Qing monarch under the banner, so until we achieve this goal, I will not be the emperor. In the final analysis, there are a lot of people who still want to be loyal to the Han Dynasty in these years, but they only say that Kong Ming of Huiji Academy is completely in Chu Ying, and his heart is in Han, and he is afraid that he will secretly run to Guanzhong in the end after learning all his skills...... If it weren't for Zhuge Ziyu's sake, and his younger brother Zhuge Jun was still obedient, he would have been slaughtered a long time ago! Li Ming said indignantly.
If you can't use it for me, then you can't cheapen others. It's just that this also reflects a problem, the Han has loyal ministers. In fact, even Zhu Jun has found Li Ming in private, hoping to treat the Han royal family well.
"Don't talk about that, I won't be the king if Yuan Shao is not destroyed, remember this basic principle!" Li Ming looked at Guo Jia, "What we want to talk about now is how to deal with the Wa Kingdom!" ”
"The head of the family is too worried!" Zhang Mo stepped forward, "The Japanese people have not yet formed an inherent script, and their language is still relatively close to the dialect of Guanzhong, which is the old Qin dialect. They don't even have a true religion, just a few ancestor worship compiled from a reverie of their ancestors. They have not yet formed inherent customs, not even laws and basic morals.
Do you know why the soldiers under him are left there? Because the women there will come to the barracks in the middle of the night, and they will take the initiative to seek a partner, instead of waiting for the man to come to them! They have no concept of partnership, not even of marriage, but are purely like animals, only the instinct to reproduce. The subordinates mean that they have the possibility of sinicization, at least at this stage, and they only need to be completely convinced that they are the people of China! ”
Li Ming couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, indeed, his concept came from later generations. It was only after the Sui and Tang dynasties that the Wa people developed an independent system of writing, customs, and civilization. Before that, it was a blank slate, whatever he wanted. Obviously, he was making a bit of a fuss, and he had to watch out for the Japanese people as a flood beast, and he was completely scaring himself.
"Who can call the shots in Yamatai?" Li Ming looked at Zhang Mo, "I mean, who is the principal?" ”
"In the past, we saw in Luoyang, it was the woman called 'Himiko', who made good use of the ghost way to deter ordinary Japanese people from worshiping her, fearing her, and then submitting to her. Susanoo and Tsukiyomi are her right and left hands, speaking of which she is already married, she has a son who is thirteen years old and has already married, and her daughter-in-law is already pregnant with a child. Zhang Mo replied.
"She seems to be only about thirty years old, right?" Li Ming was speechless for a moment.
"Yes, her bloodline is pure, and she looks no different from the Han Chinese...... During this period, I also asked my subordinates for pleasure...... It's just that the subordinates didn't agree......" Zhang Mo said a little shyly, not because he didn't want to, but because Lu Qiling was watching closely by his side at that time.
"Hao Lang didn't start?" Li Ming looked at Zhang Mo with interest.
"Yes, she found Hao Lang later......" Zhang Mo said with a smile, Hao Lang's character was naturally disrespectful.
"Let Hao Lang control the religion of Yamatai by controlling Himiko, I only allow Taoism to appear in Yamatai, all other religions, even the so-called ancestral beliefs are not allowed, even if there is ancestral faith, it must be the ancestors of Huaxia!" Li Ming looked at Guo Jia, "I agree with your suggestion to the Japanese State. As an additional note, fifty percent of the Yamatai people who migrated to settle in China focused on those pregnant women who were pregnant in these months! ”
"My subordinates understand!" Guo Jia nodded in agreement.
