Chapter 163: Three Thousand Peacekeepers
"Overseas, now our friend of the Huaxia Republic, the slave country, is under the military threat of the Yamatai country. The Yamatai Kingdom www.biquge.info began to rise a hundred years ago, and began to frantically encroach on the surrounding countries and launch unjust wars of aggression, which caused great pain to the people of the Japanese State and also caused the demise of many countries with independent regimes.
The purpose of this trip to the Japanese kingdom with the naval forces was to maintain the peace of the Japanese kingdom, to help these countries that had been destroyed, to restore their regime, and to maintain the security of the Japanese kingdom.
The culprit, Yamatai, should be punished as it deserves, but please note that we are a glorious peacekeeper, not a cruel aggressor.
The dialect of the Wa people is mixed with Heluo language, from the geographical and historical point of view, they may have some kind of common origin with us, and there is even a legend that Xu Fu took 500 boys and girls to the sea to seek the fairy mountain, but the result was to the Wa country.
It is our duty to maintain peace on the ground and to ensure peaceful coexistence among nations. At the same time, we will defend our legitimate interests in the Japanese state, and we may face far more enemies than we are.
Overseas operations will inevitably face a shortage of supplies, a lack of a large amount of food and medicine, and even damaged weapons may not be able to be replenished in time. We are going to face a lot of difficulties, I just want to ask you, are you afraid? On the school ground, Li Wen stared at the decentralized troops and shouted loudly.
This is a carefully selected 3,000 peacekeeping troops, the commander is Zhang He, the deputy general Le Jin, and the chief of staff Xu Bei is one of the former staff officers of the General Staff and is also an old staff officer.
"Always be ready!" Everyone couldn't help but shout, after all, how could they admit it at a critical time? As soldiers, they were always ready! is even ready to sacrifice for the country, otherwise there is no need to join the army at all!
"Let's go!" Li Wen did not talk nonsense, and directly announced the dispatch of the army.
3,000 people boarded the warship, in fact, everyone knows that the sea is unpredictable, even now that navigation technology has begun to stabilize, it is difficult to ensure safety at sea. If there is no such thing as a great wind and waves, 3,000 of them will be buried at the bottom of the sea. It's just that if you know this situation and don't hesitate, then you are called a soldier!
Two months later, they successfully arrived in the Fukuoka area, which is still in the sphere of influence of the slave country, but this time back and forth for more than half a year, the slave country has been beaten by the Yamatai country, and the original territory is equivalent to the land of the three counties of Huaxia, so now there is probably less than half of the county town left.
It can only be said that if it weren't for the fact that there was a port garrison on this side of the coast, and it played a great role in the defensive war, I am afraid that the so-called slave country would have become history long ago.
"It's good if you don't lose the country, even if you lose the country, as long as the lord is still there, there is no problem! If there is nothing left, then there is no point in us coming here. Xu Bei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"It's just a group of barbarians with backward equipment, it's a big deal to directly run over and occupy all of this island, where are there so many concerns?" Zhang He couldn't help complaining, although Le Jin didn't say it, but it was probably the same thing.
In the eyes of these traditional generals, there is no need to occupy such a small country. If you really want to fight, it will definitely be at the crushing level, and you don't need to be afraid of anything at all. Now this kind of war launched in the name of peacekeeping, he feels too constrained and unhappy!
"The Führer once put forward the concept of civil war and foreign war in the barracks, and the enemies of civil war are all our compatriots, so it is better to avoid weapons of mass destruction, after all, no matter which side is killed in the war, it is our motherland that suffers in the end.
We can deal with foreign wars violently, and those enemies who dare to take the initiative to attack us are, after all, self-defense and counterattack. If you take the initiative to attack others, you must occupy the general righteousness, and you must have sufficient reasons and means to appease. After all, war, especially foreign wars, even if we can conquer their lands, will inevitably sow the seeds of hatred.
This thing is very mysterious, the Führer said, this thing can last for generations, and even with the endless continuation of war. It is impossible for us to maintain maximum vigilance at all times, so in terms of foreign conquest, we must first avoid planting the seeds of hatred, subtly in a gentle way, and finally let them take the initiative to join our country, so that we can truly conquer this country, or this civilization! Xu Bei said slowly, just like the pious man who recited the quotations.
In fact, he was also a true devout, compared to Zhang He and Lejin who were nothing more than worshippers.
"Can you put it simply?" Obviously, this kind of esoteric thing, the two generals still can't understand it, just like Li Yu's speech in the barracks, they can understand it, and it's almost these staff officers.
"The people of Baiyue!" Xu Bei gave an example angrily, so the two of them understood.
The people of Baiyue are distributed in the Wuyue region, and they exist in almost the huge Jiangnan. They have existed since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and they are the real aborigines of the land of Wuyue. Later, as the Qin State advanced southward, it began to collide with the Central Plains civilization.
In the Han Dynasty, the relationship between the two sides was still very tense, even if many began to accept sinicization and became the people of the Han Dynasty. It's just that at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, most of the Yue people in Wuyue were severely oppressed, and finally had to flee back to the mountains to become mountain people.
The struggle between Shanyue and the local government has never been heard, from the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the establishment of the Huaxia Republic, there have always been uprisings, and even the Wulingman part, with the establishment of the Huaxia Republic, is still fighting against the local government.
In the original history, the war between the Yue and Sun Wu lasted for more than 60 years, until after the extinction of Sun Wu, it fought with the Western Jin Dynasty. In the end, as the Eastern Jin Dynasty moved south, the living environment was further oppressed, and it was gradually pacified.
Spanning three or four hundred years, I don't know how many generations have fought one after another, and this is true of civil wars, not to mention foreign wars.
"I see!" As soon as Xu Bei said that, Zhang He and Le Jin immediately understood.
"The lord of the lower country is a slave mother bow, and I have seen the envoy of the upper country!" By this time, the lord of the slave country had already come over with her son. There is also a clear matriarchal society in this country, but the people in power are women.
In fact, Li Yu felt that they should not have a surname, and the surname of slave was only given by the imperial court at that time......
Perhaps because of this, the lord of the slave country actually speaks fluent official dialect, regardless of the accent, as a foreign tribal patriarch, it is indeed not easy to do this step.
"The lord of the country is exempt, we are just peacekeepers sent down, not envoys from above." Xu Bei stepped forward and saluted back.
"If it weren't for the help of God, the slave country would have been wiped out long ago, and everything in the slave country in the future will be up to God!" The slave mother is also open-minded, or has no choice at all.
The strength of the Huaxia Republic is too strong, even if she helps her restore the country, I am afraid that I will lose the right to rule the country, it is better to give it up from the beginning, and I can exchange some benefits.
"We are a righteous army, not those cruel invaders. We will help you get back the power of the slave country, and even we will help the other invaded countries to restore their country, and give the evil Yamatai country a certain punishment.
It's just that we are from overseas and have no roots in the Japanese country, so we need to use this port as a transit place for materials and repair weapons and ......equipment on the spot," Xu Bei said solemnly, of course, he did not forget to ask for benefits. He didn't need to bring it up immediately, but he saw the guarded eyes of the slave bow.
It seems that the Japanese people are not easy to fool, and sure enough, as the lord of the country, she will not believe that pies will suddenly fall from the sky. If you don't need to pay anything, it's strange that the other party is completely unguarded.
"Haha, what kind of requirement is this, it's just a port, the lord of the country can call the shots, the port and the surrounding area within a radius of twenty miles, it is the territory of the kingdom, how about it?" Sure enough, the slave mother bow couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, just ask for it.
Finally, he sent two boxes of dog-headed gold, pointed at them and said, "It seems that your country likes these yellow metals very much." These are all things that my grandmother began to accumulate, and it is useless for the slave country to come, and since the kingdom likes it, it is a gift. ”
The two boxes of doghead gold weigh at least hundreds of catties, not to mention the quality, and the full capacity can at least hold more than 300 catties of gold ingots. Considering 500 grams per catty, 300 catties is 150,000 grams. In later generations, the average gold was 250 yuan/gram, and the 300 catties of gold ore was almost 3.75 million!
Even if it is converted into gold coins, it can melt two or three thousand gold coins, and the cost of this battle, not considering the cost of salaries and pensions, is only about a thousand gold coins in terms of pure materials. In other words, these two boxes of dog's head gold almost fill up the cost of going to war.
Not to mention the existence of an overseas territory with a radius of twenty miles, which is still equipped with a port. Moreover, it is only less than 20 miles away from the location of the Kasuga Gold Mine, in other words, in the future, the Huaxia Republic can even mine the Kasuga Gold Mine openly.
In addition to gold, there is also a large amount of iron ore in the Kasuga deposit, which can be processed into iron tools and sold on the spot after being collected. It can even be crafted into inferior (relatively speaking) weapons and sold to slave nations or other countries in exchange for large quantities of gold and silver ore.
According to historical records, the output of silver ore accounted for 40% of the world's silver production before it was discovered in the Americas! Not to mention the Sado Gold Mine, it took more than 300 years to mine before it failed! In addition, in Shinano Province and other regions, there are also very rich and shallowly buried gold and silver deposits!
If China wants to completely enter the gold standard, and even want to meet the circulation needs of the market, it will have to reserve a large amount of gold, silver and copper mines, and according to Li Yu's expected assumptions, the Wa Kingdom will be the main source of precious metals for a long time.
By the way, it is best to export Chinese civilization to become the mother tongue here, after all, the Japanese country does not yet have their own mother tongue, or even really belong to their own. Liculture! The conquest of a foreign nation does not necessarily require the snatching of real swords and guns, and force is always only a last resort! (To be continued.) )
