Chapter 138: The authority of the overlord is inviolable
"Hmm, I didn't expect that there were so many Han people in Goguryeo, it seems that this is also very promising for my future layout!" After hearing Jian Yu, Lian Yucheng, and Bo Shetu take turns to introduce the national conditions of Goguryeo, Wang Ze couldn't help but have a crooked idea again.
Wang Ze liked to be in a daze for a long time without saying a word when he thought about things, but he frightened the unaware Bo Shetu and the three, fortunately, Wang Ze quickly recovered this time and asked the three again: "I 'want' to send a few gentlemen back to Goguryeo to recruit poor Han people to come to the East China Sea to participate in the grand event, I don't know what the gentlemen think?" ”
After the three of them suddenly looked at each other with some embarrassment, Jian Yu, who was the oldest in the grade, said with a difficult face: "Little Marquis, although this Goguryeo oppresses the Han people very badly on weekdays, it is also very eager for people, and I am afraid that the little ones will not be able to complete this task." ”
Originally, Goguryeo had always coveted the rich land of the four counties of Liaodong in the Han Dynasty, but in the late Han Dynasty for nearly 200 years, it had been severely attacked by other forces occupying Liaodong, and the population had been increasing very slowly, not to mention, there were many heavy casualties during this period.
It was not until Murong Xianbei was defeated by the Former Qin of the Di Emperor Fu Jian in the war for hegemony in the Central Plains that Goguryeo had the opportunity to occupy all parts of Liaodong one by one, but the Goguryeo people were still very few.
After Goguryeo fully occupied Liaodong County in the sixth year of Yixi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (410 AD), it gradually established Jian'an City, Anshi City, Liaodong City, Xincheng and Buyeo City along the Liao River to the north.
While the land area increased dramatically, the population of Goguryeo became even more scarce, and according to historical records, the population of Goguryeo during the Three Kingdoms period was only 30,000 households, about 150,000.
Even in the Northern Wei Dynasty, when Li Ao, the Wei member of the Wei Dynasty sent an envoy to Goguryeo, after hundreds of years of reproduction and the annexation of many indigenous tribes such as the Kou people and the Wofu, the population of Goguryeo was only 150,000 households and less than 800,000 people, of course, if you add the Han people living in Goguryeo, the population of Goguryeo will be more than 1 million.
Although the population of Goguryeo has continued to multiply in the decades from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the present, the population of the Goguryeo people has been increasing slowly because of the custom of the Han people farming as slaves and the Goguryeo people serving as soldiers to fight in the Goguryeo country, and the successive defeats in the wars against Baekje and Silla a few years ago have led to a large number of population losses, so the Han people in Goguryeo have greatly contributed to the recovery of Goguryeo's national strength.
Under such circumstances, Wang Ze asked Jian Yu and the three of them to go to Goguryeo to recruit Han people, which is simply looking for death, which is a naked and 'naked' digging for Goguryeo!
Hearing Jian Yu's detailed explanation, Wang Ze realized that he was really taking it for granted, as the most populous Northern Qi in the world, there are more than 20 million people in the country, and they are not willing to let the people flee.
In addition, whether it is the Northern Zhou, whose population has just exceeded 10 million, or the Southern Chen, which has a population of just over 4 million, the domestic population management is even more strict.
At the beginning of the year, when he was in Jian'an County, he was faced with the immigration requirements of tens of thousands of people, and he almost broke Han Zigao's generals and officials in Nanchen at that time. Even Nam Chen cares so much about his population, let alone Goguryeo, whose population is less than two million.
Thinking of this, Wang Ze is really a little embarrassed, anyway, Daddy Wang Yong still occupies the land of Sanqi, where there are hundreds of thousands of ordinary people who have fled from the surrounding states and counties, and now they are all placed in the area near Jiaozhou by Uncle Zhu, and they can be transported to Qinjin by ship at any time as long as they are needed.
It's just that it doesn't seem that I need so much to immigrate from Goguryeo, and I seem to only need a part of it, Wang Ze's mind is 'intensely' thinking, and the brain cells are being consumed sharply.
Just when Wang Ze was meditating, Lian Yu Cheng said: "If the little marquis needs the three of me, it will not be fine if he only recruits hundreds of Hanmin every year, these numbers still can't attract the attention of the Goguryeo people, but if the number is too much, the government will definitely find out, and I am fearless when I wait for the fall of the fate, but I am afraid that it will affect the big plan of the little marquis!" ”
Hearing Lian Yucheng's words, Wang Ze remained silent, but suddenly realized in his heart, we only need to quietly recruit dozens or hundreds of people in each county of Goguryeo, and then send these people out when we attack Goguryeo in the future, this is the best propaganda team! Okay, Goguryeo can't run out of our palms.
Wang Ze, who figured out the layout of Goguryeo, was immediately in a good mood, and let them go out after 'handing' to Jian Yu and the others, of course, Wang Ze would let the 'door' of the Intelligence Department closely cooperate with the actions of several people.
Seeing Xiao Yu's old department and tens of thousands of sailor family members crying and crying on board the ship under the urging of Cao An's soldiers, Wang Ze's heart was indescribably comfortable, these people are authentic Han people Wang Ze planned to place them in Chang'men and other places opposite Qinjin, of course, Wang Ze had already thought of a name for the Chang'men' there, which was called Changzhou.
Nowadays, all parts of the East China Sea under Wang Ze's rule are gradually on the right track, and there are 150,000 people in Jeju County on Jeju Island, and the population cannot be increased for the sake of environmental stability.
Qinjin, which has been the main destination of immigrants for more than a year, has now more than 250,000 people after more than a year of immigration, of course, these populations do not include nearly 100,000 Japanese slaves.
In addition to Qinjin Oshima, there are more than 10,000 people on a series of small islands such as Tsushima Island and Goto Island in the surrounding waters, more than 20,000 people on Tanegashima and Toki Islands in the south, and a series of settlements on the Ryukyu Islands, and more than 30,000 people in Yishu County, which was newly established on Yishu Island.
Up to now, the islands under the rule of Wang Ze in the East China Sea alone have a population of nearly 500,000, plus the more than 10,000 immigrants transported back to the East China Sea and the 20,000 people captured this time, as well as the immigrants of the group of ships that are about to arrive in Jiangchuan, the population is almost 550,000, and this data is still increasing at the number of hundreds of thousands of immigrants every year, you must know that the population of Baekje and Silla today is only 100,000.
Wang Ze hummed a little song while his heart was happy with the 'flowers', at this time Liu Wancheng hurriedly ran over, and saw Wang Ze being stupid there, he hurriedly ran close to Wang Ze's ear and whispered: "Little Hou Ye, that Fuyu Wang came just now, and said that the little Hou Ye 'privately' attacked the Baekje naval camp and damaged the 'relations' between the two countries, and now the brothers are stopping him!" ”
"Oh? He came to us to settle accounts? I don't know if this counts as a wicked person suing first! Wang Ze was laughed at angrily, and he 'pulled' out the horizontal knife on his waist and said to Liu Wancheng: "Let's go, I still have to settle accounts with them!" ”
When Wang Ze saw Fuyu Wang, this guy was standing outside the camp of Xiao Yu's army and yelling, and the hundreds of soldiers guarding the 'gate' were closed as if they hadn't heard any sound.
As soon as he saw Wang Ze coming, Fuyu Wang shouted to Wang Ze from afar as if he had seen a savior: "Brother Wang, I am Fuyu Wang, open the 'door' quickly, I have something urgent to find you!" "Both hands also smashed the big 'door' with a 'frame'.
Wang Ze came to the 'door' unhurriedly, and asked the soldiers to open the big 'door' with a wave of his hand.
As soon as Fuyu Wang entered the 'door' and didn't speak, he was stopped by Wang Ze, Wang Ze looked at Fuyu Wang with a smile and asked: "I don't know what happened this time, how should Brother Fuyu give me a 'handover' generation?" ”
Looking at the young man who stopped him in front of him, Fu Yuwang said with some annoyance: "If you want to say that the 'handover' generation should be Brother Wang giving me a 'handover' generation, right?" This is the camp of my Baekje Naval Army! "Although Xiao Yu has always been an independent army since he joined Baekje, it can indeed be called Baekje's naval army.
Hearing Fuyu Wang's rhetorical question, Wang Ze laughed and said: "Since Xiao Yu's department is the Baekje Naval Army, then I will find the main master, I don't know if this time Xiao Yu's naval army poured out to attack my Jeju Island, was it under the order of the King of Baekje or on the orders of others?" ”
Fuyu Wang hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Little Hou Ye, don't you dare to say this, I Baekje has been greatly favored by Xiao Hou Ye many times, and I have defeated the Japanese Navy several times for me to attack, how dare I Baekje attack the territory of Xiao Hou Ye!" ”
Seeing that Fuyu Wang hurriedly broke away with Xiao Yu's navy, Wang Ze despised An An in his heart, and he was worthy of being one of the ancestors of the 'stick' like the Silla people.
Seeing that Wang Ze's complexion had improved slightly, just when Buyeo Wang thought that he could 'mix' in this way, he heard a whistle and saw a large number of soldiers escorting more than a dozen Baekje people dressed as nobles coming over.
Wang Ze asked Fu Yu Wang with a smile: "I also caught so many people in Xiao Yu's naval army camp, if it is said that I am looking for relatives and friends on weekdays, but when Xiao Yu attacked my Jeju Island, I am afraid there are some problems!" And when I entered the camp, they were drunk, discussing how to divide the benefits of Jeju Island. If Brother Buyeo didn't know these people, then I would have beheaded them all!" ”
Buyeo looked at these people and was taken aback, it turned out that these people were all the noble children of some of the eight great families of Baekje, Yan, Mu, Zhen (Zhen), Sha, Jia, Miao, and Jie, and the other few were also the children of the slightly weaker big nobles of the Heiya, Fu, and Gao families.
When Xiao Yu attacked Jeju Island, these people quietly appeared in the camp of Xiao Yu's army, and the reason is self-evident, it seems that it is with the support of most of the families in Baekje that Xiao Yu can confidently and boldly attack Jeju Island.
The mentality of these families is very well understood by Buyeo Wang, who has gradually mastered the maritime supremacy of all parts of the East China Sea since Wang Ze occupied Jeju Island, and although he has not yet shown the intention of levying a maritime protection fee, he has completely controlled the sea throat of Baekje.
This is unacceptable to Baekje, which has always been a powerful country in the East China Sea, not to mention that most of the merchant ships in Baekje belong to these aristocratic forces, and seeing that Wang Ze's power is getting stronger and stronger, they began to be unable to sit still.
Since Xiao Yu came to Baekje, he has been vigorously recruiting soldiers to expand the army, and many people in the Baekje aristocracy, including the Baekje royal family, have always been full of jealousy of Xiao Yu for this foreign naval army that nominally belongs to Baekje but has always been an independent army.
This time, after Baekje sent an envoy to Qingzhou, he learned that the Northern Qi army would attack Wang Yong and would inevitably be unable to return to the East China Sea, so he took advantage of the empty stall where Wang Ze's troops from all over the East China Sea supported Qizhou and had not returned, so Xiao Yu became a temptation for Wang Ze by the Baekje royal family and nobles this time.
But Fuyu Wang never thought that those nobles were so idiots that they would send so many children to Xiao Yu to wait for the benefits, and more importantly, they were all captured by Wang Ze after breaking the water village.
Looking at Fuyu Wang's face, the 'color' was white for a while, green for a while, and red for a while, and he was speechless, Wang Zehe chuckled a few times and said: "It seems that Brother Buyeo doesn't recognize these cats and dogs, so let me cut off their heads and hang them all in the 'door' to show the public!" Lest some people think I'm good-tempered! ”
The dozen or so people trapped on the ground were all from the great nobles of Baekje, and of course they were all fluent in Chinese, and when they heard that Wang Ze was going to behead them all and hang the 'door' to show the public, Buyeo Wang was still on the side and did not speak, so in a hurry, they shouted to Buyeo Wang one by one for help.
After a fierce struggle in his heart, Fu Yuwang hurriedly pleaded with Wang Ze: "Little Hou Ye's subordinates are merciful, these people are all the children of several nobles of my Baekje, they like to play around on weekdays, and it is just a coincidence that they want to appear in Xiao Yu's naval army camp, I hope that Xiao Hou Ye will let them go as soon as possible!" ”
"Haha, Brother Buyeo really thinks I'm a three-year-old kid! Now that the whole Baekje has begun to regard me as an enemy, they are actually plotting against me on Jeju Island, but they want to start a war with me? Wang Ze's eyes were round, and he looked at Fuyu Wang.
Fuyu Wang was a little shuddered by Wang Ze, and he hurriedly said: "This incident must be a misunderstanding, I want to do it with me?" ”
Wang Ze stared at Buyeo and said, word by word: "For the sake of Brother Buyeo's face, I won't kill these people first, I will take all these people to Jeju Island first, and Baekje must give me an explanation within three days, otherwise you and I will be enemies in the future!" Where can several countries in the East China Sea find an ally that can be aligned! ”
After saying these words, Wang Ze ignored the shouts of Fuyu Wang's back, and walked towards the camp by himself, and hundreds of soldiers under the command of Liu Wancheng closed the big 'gate' of the camp again, and guarded it tightly.
Seeing that Fuyu Wang shouted for a long time and no one paid attention to him and left helplessly, Liu Wancheng came to Wang Ze's side and asked curiously: "Little Marquis, are we really going to war with Baekje?" But it's better to teach these 'bastards' who don't know what to do, and besides, the Baekje 'women' are almost the same as the Silla 'women', they are much better than the 'women' of the Wa Kingdom, at least the skin is better than the other! ”
Wang Ze looked helplessly at the dirty face of Hes in front of him, the 'lewdness' and 'swinging' movements in his eyes were so obscene, if there was one more pole, he could dance pole dance, and his mind was unhealthy.
In fact, Wang Ze really didn't think about going to war with Baekje, but these things have already happened, and if he still thinks that nothing has happened, then there will be endless provocations like this one in the future, and it will be more difficult to react when the time comes.
Besides, now that he has mastered the sea power in the East China Sea, and the majesty of the sea hegemon is inviolable, Wang Ze decided that if Baekje really dares not to give himself an explanation this time, he must also wage a small-scale local war against Baekje, otherwise it will not be enough to deter some people in Baekje who have been carried away by a series of war victories.
But in any case, the honeymoon period between Wang Ze and Baekje is over!
