In the first year of Huangwu, Guanzhong finally ushered in a long-lost bumper harvest.

The smell of ripe ears of wheat fills the air, and the fields and villages are full of gold.

The wrinkles on the faces of the people were also relaxed.

Tang Bin and Wang Jun sent troops to harass them several times, but they were repelled by Meng Yu and Meng Guan, who were waiting for them.

The Jin army could not disturb Guanzhong, but the Qin army and cavalry of Bingzhou drove straight into Youzhou, and captured more than 2,700 Wuhuan Han people and more than 100,000 stones of grain.

The people of Youzhou either went south or moved into Liaodong, and the three Xianbei tribes of Liaodong took advantage of this to grow a wave.

After ascending the throne, good things happened one after another.

At this moment, Yang Zheng was busy meeting with the envoys of the Western Regions.

The defeat of Wusun was full of deterrence to the countries of the Western Regions, and after Sima Yan usurped Wei, the so-called orthodoxy of the Central Plains also disappeared.

Great Qin completely became the suzerain of the Western Regions.

Feng Qi sent a message from Kangju Wanli, and he should take this opportunity to integrate the Western Regions in one fell swoop.

Yang Zheng has long had this intention.

In this era, the Western Regions were rich and full of melons and fruits, and it was still an important place for trade between the East and the West.

The Xuanyi Lang sent out in previous years has been fruitful.

Although all countries are very wary of Daqin, the people's goodwill towards Daqin continues to increase.

Shu brocade, books, tea, and porcelain can be equivalent to gold in the Western Regions, and commoners and nobles flock to it.

The Xuanyi envoys directly set up "Qin Pavilions" in the big cities of various countries to teach the common people the Chinese dialect and the ways of Confucius and Mencius.

Osmosis is often pervasive.

Qin's national strength could not be actually occupied on the land, so it had to be occupied in people's hearts and minds.

Of course, the countries of the Western Regions are not fools, and they know that there will be endless troubles if they continue like this.

Rong Lu seized the Qin Pavilion in the territory, but in a blink of an eye, the two thousand iron horsemen of Yin Chun, the governor of Xizhou, were killed at the door of the house, and even the king and the civilians were all served in a pot, escorted in a prisoner car, and sent to the countries, and then escorted to Chang'an.

The nations were instantly honest.

Several alliances in the Western Regions were defeated by the Qin State, and it was no longer possible to do anything militarily.

War is everything.

So in the end, they have to go along with it.

Acquiescing to the existence of the Qin Pavilion, the Qin Pavilion has also become an existence that the king cannot provoke.

The Chinese dialect has gradually become the official language of the Western Regions, and the nobles of various countries say no, but their bodies are very honest, and they have long secretly studied Chinese classics.

Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet.

They know the situation in the Western Regions best.

War is the best way of communication between civilizations, and it is also the most direct and effective.

The strength of the Han, Wei, and Qin dynasties had a profound and lasting impact in the Western Regions.

Naturally, it will attract a lot of loyal fans.

What's more, the Chinese civilization standing at the top is completely incomparable with the scattered civilization of the Western Regions.

Yang Zheng combined the methods of the beautiful country in later generations, and after discussing with Wei Qian for a long time, he formulated eleven decrees.

First, the kings of the kingdoms must be canonized by Great Qin to be considered orthodox.

Second, the princes and nobles must go to Chang'an to study, for as little as three years and as long as five years.

Third, the countries of the Western Regions did not have the right to command the army in the future, and were commanded and trained by the soldiers, Sima, and Xuanyi orders sent by Chang'an.

Fourth, all countries should unify commercial taxes and not levy them privately.

Fifth, Chinese is the official language of communication.

Sixth, in addition to setting up the Qin Pavilion, countries should also set up a Xuan Xuan to teach the way of Confucius and Mencius.

Seventh, if there is a dispute between countries, they are not allowed to attack and fight privately, which can be adjudicated by the Governor of the Western Regions, and if there is any objection, it can be appealed to the Chang'an Emperor.

The latter articles are the content of the etiquette system, stipulating the rank and status of the king of the Western Regions, the size and color of the palace, the wearing of clothes, the size of the carriage, and so on.

The main principle is that military power belongs to Great Qin, and political power and financial power still belong to each country.

When Pang Qing read it, the envoys of various countries were dumbfounded.

"Is Your Majesty going to destroy us?" The envoy of the Turtle Kingdom couldn't sit still at first.

Yang Zheng is used to it

On formal occasions, he wore armor with a long sword, and the armor was covered with a layer of dark colored clothing to show the martial style of the Great Qin.

"You are wrong, this is to ensure the long-term stability of your country's fortunes in the Western Regions, your king is still the king, your people are still your people, and the army is still yours, Daqin will assist you, and from now on you will be responsible for the safety of all countries, and you will no longer have to fear the invasion of foreign enemies, and let the Western Regions become a ceremonial state, isn't it good? In addition, I may allow your king to have a guard of five hundred men."

The status is different, and the intensity of speech is not the same.

Yang Zheng felt that he didn't say a word, and he was invisibly majestic.

Several envoys rolled their eyes, "This matter is too involved, we have no right to make it, and we need to return to the country."

Look at the sky and bid, and pay back the money on the ground.

The integration of the Western Regions was originally a long process, and the minds of all countries were the same, such as the small countries of Jimo, Ronglu, and Wuqiang, and there were only two or three thousand people in the country, and they could hug the thighs of the Qin State, and they would not have to be bullied in the future, of course they were willing.

However, the slightly larger countries of Qiuzi, Shule, and Shanshan have always had ambitions for expansion.

"It's okay, you can go back and think about it, I'm waiting for your good news in Chang'an." Yang Zheng was not in a hurry at all.

With a knife in his hand, of course he didn't panic in his heart.

Time is also on Daqin's side.

After the occupation of Wusun, the countries of the Western Regions were like fish on the chopping block.

It's best not to agree, Yang Zheng doesn't mind sending iron horsemen to destroy them again.

However, it is impossible to fully occupy the Western Regions, and the cost of ruling is too great.

But linear occupation is doable.

Yang Zheng is still interested in pocketing some wealthy commercial and trade towns.

Today, Yang Zheng's reputation as a tiger and wolf is not only widely spread in Middle-earth, but also in the Western Regions.

Some scholars in the Western Regions regard Yang Zheng as the monarch with the strongest desire for land in the past three hundred years in Middle-earth, and only Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty can compare with him.

Yang Zheng asked Yang Wu and Yang Hong to continue to entertain envoys from various countries.

These envoys are also chicken thieves, and they want to go to the military camp with all their might.

In particular, he was very interested in cavalry.

There are also people who observe the blacksmiths, paper mills, and weaving workshops......

These places have long been forbidden, and no one is allowed to enter.

However, Taixue is open to them, especially the library and Confucian classics, they can read it however they want, and each person also gave a set of hardcover editions of the Four Books and Five Classics for free.

Du Kuan and Zhang Wei, who were in charge of the reception, were a little overwhelmed, "Why is Your Majesty so stingy? In this way, I am afraid that it will hurt people from afar."

According to the rules of the past, when the envoys came, the court often gave gold and jade, Shu brocade, etc., tens of thousands.

Yang Zheng glanced at him, "I'd rather be stingy with them than waste the people's suffering."

Money is spent where it should be.

At present, the trend of frugality has just improved, and there is no need to be generous to outsiders.

Besides, Daqin is already poor, Yang Zheng has always sought truth from facts, and will never slap a swollen face and become fat.

I am frugal and frugal, do I still have to feed outsiders?

Isn't that a shit?

Du Kuan said, "Although it is good to be thrifty, I am afraid that they will despise my Great Qin."

Confucian scholars are more face-saving.

These envoys were dressed in gold and silver one by one, covered with Shu brocade, and inlaid with various gemstones, compared to the Great Qin monarchs and ministers looked a little shabby.

Everyone wears cloth clothes and sheep furs, not even mink furs, and the clothes are not colorful.

Du Kuan and Zhang Shu are both strong and powerful, and they have been rich for generations, so they naturally talk about pomp.

Yang Zheng sneered, "Contempt? I hope they have this dog's guts, and the prestige of Great Qin is not piled up with gold, but with bows, swords, and horses."
