Obviously, taking the opportunity of this auspicious omen, Gou Jian's next words can be "recognized" by God, making it difficult for others to refute and violate.

Hearing this, the tongue Yong on the side had already expected it in his heart, and guessed the intention of King Yue, after all, the auspicious appearance of Wen ray was specially made by him: use the bait to attract them to the center of the river, and then let the sound of gongs and drums and fishing nets scare them out.

Although there are a large number of wizards in the Yue Kingdom, their status is also high, they have a long heritage, and there are many people who have cultivated amazingly, but when it comes to the skill of divination, they are pressed by Xin Wenzi, an outsider who came from afar, and taught the two Liuren Zhanfa "Jinkui" and "Jade Gate" to Fan Li, Wen Chong and others.

And as Fan Li's right-hand man, Yu Yong has also received some guidance from the other party on the art of divination, coupled with the cultivation of the six qi masters in himself, he secretly calculated the migration route of the Wen ray fish, and it is not difficult to do this thing secretly.

Signaling his generals to spread the news of Xiangrui's appearance in the army, it was encouraging, and he glanced at a suspicious witch on the side, and then listened to Gou Jian, the king of Yue, slowly speak, and his tone revealed a deep concern for the future of the country:

"A few days ago, Zhu Ji Ying summarized the people's feelings in the past few months and reported it to me, thinking that the customs and languages of the people from all over the world who moved into Vietnam are quite different from the locals, and it is difficult to integrate in a short period of time, and often there will be conflicts and accumulation of public grievances."

"In order to solve this problem, I came up with a solution not long ago, and I took the opportunity of this auspicious appearance to discuss it with you."

"There is a saying in the Book of Music, 'Those who are happy are the same, the same is a blind date, and the same music and literature are the same, then the upper and lower are harmonious.'" The way of voice is connected with politics. With that, Gou Jian's fingers gently tapped the hilt of the Stepping Light Sword, making a rhythmic sound, as if setting the tone for the rest of the conversation.

"Since music has the effect of unifying people's will and emotions, just as politics can unify people's actions. So in terms of educating the people, can we use music, dance and other methods to cultivate the character of the people and resolve the contradictions caused by the nomads? ”

Before Yu Yong could reply, Qin Yi, another great witch who followed behind Gou Jian, echoed: "That's right. Music has five tones, two changes, eight winds, six rhythms, and twelve tones. These elements can compose different movements and lead people to feel different emotions. ”

"Etiquette and people's hearts, music and people's voices, government to practice, punishment to prevent it. Etiquette, music, punishment, and politics, if the four reach without disobedience, the royal road will be prepared. ”

"The duty of a shaman, in addition to sacrificing to ancestors and gods, also needs to play an auxiliary role in educating the people." Gou Jian glanced at him appreciatively and continued: "Using music, dance and other methods to cultivate the people's broad and easy character will imperceptibly affect people's hearts. ”

"To this end, I decided to set up a new 'Dianle' department, with the big Si Le as the middle doctor, the little Si Le as the lower doctor, and the master and the big Xu Xiaoxu, and do not follow the usual rules, there is no requirement for cultivation, and the position is only assessed according to the level of relevant talents, but it is not aimed at the nobles like Zhou Li, but to carry out the work of 'Zhengyue Chang Law, educating the common people', and gradually standardizing the customs and language of foreign nomads."

"Within three months, a sufficient number of musicians will be selected from Shenwu Mountain, Wuli and other places, as well as from the Quartet Travelers and folk artists, and the standards of dance and music that meet the customs will be set, and then the policy of 'Zhengle' can be implemented. When the time comes, we will need your help and support. ”

Gou Jian's voice became serious: "And after three months, if it is found that there are still people who openly use and spread the wind and rhyme of Waiyi and Barbarian Wu without permission, the offender will be severely punished, and the offender will be punished." ”

After announcing this policy of targeting xenophobia, strengthening the cohesion of the Vietnamese people, and resisting the cultural invasion of the Wu State, seeing that no one raised objections, Gou Jian nodded and continued to talk about the next topic:

"With the proper means to solve the problem of the foreign population and let them gradually integrate into the Yue people, then we can further relax the restrictions in this regard...... Even, not only passively waiting for the nomads to enter Vietnam, but actively looking for them. ”

"Actively absorbing the population? Won't this lead to disputes and conflicts with neighboring countries? Yu Yong was a little surprised, and hurriedly asked.

Because it is difficult to survive, the normal exile and defection to the country of the country are just the nomads, so the people who pay the full amount of taxes in their own country are regarded as the personal property of the princes and nobles, how can they be lured and plundered by others?

"It's not absorbed from Wu, Chu and other countries, but from other sources." Gou Jian's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and the long sword poked out, pointing to the east of the river, which is connected to the East China Sea, and beyond this less obvious dividing line between the river and the sea, is the vast ocean:

"The breadth of overseas is especially better than Jingchu and the Central Plains." Gou Jian's tone was full of yearning and determination for the unknown: "Yizhou, Lanzhou, tens of thousands of miles, there are hundreds of millions of people. There are also the Eastern Anchovy people, divided into more than 20 countries, each with its own ruler, although the country is small and weak, but together, it is also a huge number. ”

"If you send sailors to these remote overseas islands, you can not only hone the recruits you and Fan Li trained, but also establish treaty ports overseas after the islanders surrender, expand the scale of maritime trade, and absorb the population and recruit soldiers from these islanders."

"In addition to Daoyi, Haibu is also full of dragons, with dragons as the core of the organization of a sea community, equivalent to some small countries, mastering the rich resources in the deep sea, after thousands of years of accumulation, the total amount can be said to be countless."

"If I can rely on the power of my Dayue Sailor to let these so-called 'dragon kings' also known as ministers make offerings, maybe they can achieve a more prosperous harvest than Daoyi...... In the end, he outgrew the state of Wu in the north in terms of the growth of power. ”

Yu Yong was a little surprised when he heard this, he never thought that Goujian, the king of Yue, would have such a grand plan, and he actually wanted to launch a large-scale overseas war while making an enemy of Wu, but after thinking about it carefully, it made quite sense.

You must know that since most of the Vietnamese people make a living from fishing, the proportion of the income of the Vietnamese government treasury from agricultural taxes has always been surprisingly low. On the contrary, more than 70 percent of this comes from trade, and about half of this 70 percent comes from maritime trade.

So, for now, Vietnam's economic lifeblood is trade, which in turn depends on maritime security and prosperity. Therefore, overseas expansion is not only for the sake of territory and resources, but also for the sake of economic prosperity and the future of the country.

……

"Simple sailors, I'm afraid it's hard to make those stubborn Daoyi submit, right? If we want these savages from the tribal clan era to cooperate with us, trade goods in an orderly manner, and even join the Waiyue miscellaneous army, most of them will need the help of a large number of wizards. ”

"When the time comes, there will be insufficient manpower in Shenwu Mountain, Wuli and other places, so do you have to let the wizards who guard Yuling also join in it, participate in overseas expeditions, and carry out the work of educating Daoyi and supporting the pro-Vietnamese regime?"

Chongwuwu's face was a little unhappy, he was tall, his face was resolute, he was dressed in a black witch robe, with the ornaments of mountains and peaks, and five jade rings on each arm, and said in a deep voice:

"In the warlike country of the world, the people have not lived in peace, and the social inheritance is not very stable, even if it can compete for hegemony, it has also provoked a large number of enemies and cut off the retreat to normal. It is not a good thing for the state to have more force than it can bear. ”

"Once the belligerent wind blows, it will not only affect the habits of the army, but also further affect the thinking of the bureaucracy, the hereditary aristocracy, and even the royal family, increasing the possibility of internal strife and chaos in their own country, and it is for this reason that the powerful Shang Dynasty of the past collapsed."

"In my opinion, Dayue Guozuo has been in a corner for so long, that is, everything is centered on sacrificing Dayu, and we don't need to worry about other things, so the country and the people are safe, and they are peaceful."

"To tell the truth, looking at Wu Wangfu's way of provoking strong enemies on all sides, I am afraid that we don't need to take revenge at all, we only need to protect and worship Yuling, because the enemy will eventually destroy himself, and we will be blessed by King Yu and will last forever."

This is an attitude of seeking comfort, not merit, but no fault. Guarding Yuling all the year round, he has almost never participated in the affairs of the outside world, and he is in a state of peace, so he will naturally resist this strategy that seems to provoke the enemy in vain.

Hearing Chongwuwu's remarks, Qin Yi on the side couldn't help sneering in his heart, feeling that the other party was too eyeless to see, and he didn't want to follow the sailor to sea, so just close the pass, why blatantly disagree with King Yue?

"After Xu Guonai Da Fei Boyi, King Xu Yan also had the name of benevolence, righteousness and sainthood in the past."

Gou Jian said slowly: "But they did not get real protection because of this, and in the end they were destroyed by the Wu army, and the Xu people scattered in exile, and only reluctantly re-established the temple in the south of the Yue Kingdom, and restored the sacrificial blood food of the ancestors." ”

"Wu has annexed a large number of small countries over the years, it is quite bloated, and it is in a critical period of temporary external reality and internal emptiness, but if the newly acquired land and people are digested, then the situation will be completely different."

"There is some truth to your warlike arguments." Gou Jian said, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "But for now, Yue Guo really can't do it so perfectly, and he must try his best to grab time in order to have a chance to take revenge on Wu." ”

"Otherwise, with the rapid development of the Wu Kingdom, when the two generations of Fucha and the prince and friends have passed, we will re-target the Yue Kingdom, and we will be pressed in the southeast corner and unable to develop, I am afraid that we will no longer have the ability to resist."

"On the contrary, if we open up a vast world overseas, even if we encounter an enemy more powerful than Wu and it is difficult to confront it head-on, we will have more ways to retreat, so as to continue our national glory of Dayue."

"What do you mean......" Chongwu frowned, he began to realize Gou Jian's determination and ambition.

"At the beginning, King Chu Wen was given an eagle, and his claws were very cool, and he was very often an eagle." Gou Jian said, "Just like I got you virtuous ministers, you have the ability to hunt Dapeng chicks, but when the chicks grow into adult Kunpeng with a wingspan of thousands of miles, no matter how strong the eagle is, it is impossible to compete with it." ”

"Now I hear that under the auspices of Wu Zixu and Prince Wu Prince, Wu has rebuilt the Great Wall facing Yue, and the specifications are moving closer to the Great Wall of Chu."

Gou Jian continued: "The protection system is getting better and better, and there are hundreds of gates on the route of the Great Wall of Wu, and they are being built closer and closer to the border of Vietnam. If we continue to build like this, will we still be able to break through by our Vietnamese army? ”

Chongwu's face became solemn, he understood what Gou Jian meant, the strength of the Wu State was not an overnight achievement, but a long-term accumulation process. If they want to take revenge on the state of Wu, then they must seize the opportunity during this critical period.

"So, we need more opportunities and resources. And you, the sorcerers who guard the tomb, whose average quality is far better than those ordinary Yue witches who are miscellaneous people, are an indispensable part of my plan for the development of the Yue Kingdom. ”

Gou Jian looked at Chong Wuwu, said lightly, and at the same time pulled out his sword of step light, the bright sword light illuminated the sky, naturally not on Chong Wuwu's body, but rolled up a ray flying in the air, wrapped it in the sword light, took it back to the river, and threw it on the deck of the sailor fleet.

After all, there is a spiritual fish with cultivation, although it has created an auspicious season for him, but the Yue people pay attention to practicality, so that the soldiers who performed better in the previous military exercises eat them to improve their skills, which is the ideal destination of the Chinese ray in the heart.

Seeing this scene from afar, Qin Yi, the great witch valued by King Yue, and the subordinates he brought, didn't feel anything, but Chongwu vaguely felt the coldness hidden under Gou Jian's flat expression, and couldn't help but feel a slight chill in his heart, sighed silently, and decided to deal with this matter.

"I don't want to."

Yue Wang Gou Jian held his sword forward, stood at the highest place of Cen Shi, raised his sword and pointed directly at the sky, and said in a solemn tone: "Also three months later, Yuling Township, Wuli, and Shenwu Mountain need to each elect 50,000 witches, plus a total of 100,000 local scribes and Quartet travelers, to settle in the Yue State Sailors. ”

"When the new batch of intelligence of various countries is gathered, on the auspicious time and auspicious day, when the wind and waves in the East China Sea are slightly exhausted, the Dayue Naval Division will have 1.5 million and the Dongou Naval Division will have a total of more than 2 million, and will go down the coast in three ways, and expedition to Dongfeng and Yizhou, and reward and punish them for their military exploits.

Ripping the ground? Including Yu Yong and Qin Yi, everyone present was shocked in their hearts, knowing that this was a great top reward. After all, among the vassal states attached to the Yue Kingdom, in addition to the newly added Xu Hou not long ago, there are only three Gu Mibo, Dongou Gong, and Jianzi.

And with the precedent of Prince Xu being awarded the title of Marquis of Xu, seeing that King Yue does have the sincerity to truly divide his own princes, and completely usurp the authority of Zhou Tianzi, instead of just calling him a feudal monarch like other big countries, the attraction will be beyond imagination.

……

When Goujian, the king of Yue, announced his well-thought-out overseas development strategy, thousands of miles away on Huiji Mountain, Zhao Qing had already found the "Feeling Stone" that Shen Ge Wangyi said, that is, the Tushan clan inheritance that Shi Yiguang mentioned earlier.

"'The mother said Huaxu, who was born in Lei Ze, and died in Chengji, with a snake body and a human head, and had holy virtues.' 'The mother is called Nudeng, the daughter of the Wa family, who is the concubine of the young dian, and the Yan Emperor was born with the feeling of the dragon, and the human body is the head of the cow. ''The mother said that the treasure, the Qi Ye, saw the big electricity around the Big Dipper pivot star, felt and pregnant, and gave birth to the Yellow Emperor in Shouqiu in twenty-four months. ’……”

"Does this piece of the 'Sensed Stone' left by the Tu Shan clan actually involve the legal principles of this kind of Sensed Myth?" Carefully observing a square stone the size of a foot and covered with chaotic lines under the extremely dense jungle trees not far away, her heart flashed and she thought secretly. (End of chapter)
