Chapter 860: Drowning Babies [Asking for Subscriptions * Asking for Monthly Passes]
"I finally understand why no one has done anything to you in the past Qin kings!" Jin Yao sighed.
Accept Yelang, that is, you are uncomfortable with your finances.
It is even more difficult to develop Yelang than to develop Xishu.
The first is to re-comprehensively survey Yelang and draw a standard map, and the second is that the Hengduan Mountains are really canyons and ravines, and the kind that looks at the mountains and runs dead horses.
At that time, building roads and bridges will also be a large investment.
"So, when can I go to Xianyang?" Jin Zhujun looked at Jin Yao with blazing eyes, full of expectation.
"......" Jin Yao was silent again, no wonder you thought about surrendering the first time you were defeated.
This is a long time known that Yelang is poor, and he wants to go to Xianyang to enjoy it.
"Someone will send you to Xianyang!" Jin Yao sighed, a headache, this Yelang was defeated, but how to arrange it in the future is a big deal.
"General Sima, I'll leave it to you next!" Jin Yao turned his head to look at the Sima family of the nobles in Shuzhong.
Controlling Yelang still needs locals to do, and the Sima family has been operating in Xishu for many years, and they also have a lot of intersections with Yelang, which is most suitable for post-war recovery and stability.
And they are going to continue to go south and conquer the King of Dian!
"Whoa!" The Sima family master nodded.
In fact, he couldn't understand why Xianyang wanted to conquer Yelang and do such a thankless and rewarding job.
If you can't get anything from conquering Yelang, you will only have hundreds of thousands of mouths to be fed.
The point is that Yelang is also forgotten, the king of Dian is poorer and more rugged than Yelang.
"How you fight Yelang, how you beat the King of Dian!" Jin Yao chose to divide his troops to the south, and led one road by himself, Li Xin, Jiang Lu all the way, and Lu Li Xun all the way, and the three roads marched together to attack the king of Yunnan.
It's just that the King of Dian seems to have known about the arrival of the Qin army for a long time, and also knew the result of the battle between the Qin army and Yelang, so there was no resistance at all.
"The King of Dian said that it was a country, but in fact, it was incomparable with Yelang, Yelang and Jin Zhujun could control the entire Yelang, but the King of Dian was independent, the tribe was autonomous, and the King of Dian did not have absolute control over the Kingdom of Dian at all."
This is the information given by Jin Zhujun.
Unlike Yelang, the Dian King is a tribal alliance, and the Dian King is only the nominal king of the entire Dian King Zone, but has no control over the tribes.
Therefore, under the coercion and temptation of the Qin army and the promise of painting a big cake, the tribes of the Dian King voted quickly, and it can even be said that they were waiting for the arrival of the Qin army.
But they heard that after the Qin army, they would build them roads, build bridges, teach them some farming techniques, and bring them things they didn't have.
Especially their children, in the future, they will have the opportunity to enter the Qin State, go to Xianyang to serve as soldiers and eat food, and even be able to go out of the mountains, learn culture, and become officials in the court, instead of staying in the mountains for the rest of their lives.
Therefore, the speed of the surrender of the Dian king also depends on the speed of the Qin army.
"Remember to ask them if there is any news of the peacock, it is best to find a way to the peacock!" Jin Yao still ordered all armies to pay attention to the news.
If you can find a direct road to the peacock from Yelang of Dian, then it will be much easier and more convenient to attack the peacock in the future.
It's just that there is indeed a road from King Dian and Yelang to Peacock, but it is not suitable for the march of the army, just some thorny and muddy beast roads.
It is possible for a small army to march, but it is not suitable for a large army to conquer, especially in the vast frozen soil, even if Daqin wants to build railroad tracks, it is extremely difficult, and it is not as good as opening up the road from the Western Regions to Peacock in terms of cost performance.
In the end, after half a year, Yelang and Dian Wang were destroyed and incorporated into the territory of Qin.
"Class teacher, return to the dynasty!" Jin Yao didn't plan to continue to go south and west, and if he fought again, Qin Guo really couldn't afford to raise this mouth waiting to be fed.
Hearing the news of the army's class division, the courtiers in Xianyang also breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, Yelang and King Dian are different from other rich places, there are really poor mountains and bad waters, and to conquer there, the Qin State needs to mobilize endless resources to smash into it, and then there is not much to be gained.
"I really don't understand, why did the Dragon Monarch insist on conquering Yelang and the King of Dian!" Even Fusu can't figure this out, and no one in the whole Xianyang can figure it out.
"Before the Qin State annexed Xishu, who would have thought that Xishu would become a country of abundance comparable to Guanzhong?" An Qisheng said calmly.
Although he didn't understand it, he believed that Jin Yao was not untargeted, and there must be a reason for him to do so.
Moreover, if the Qin State can create a Xishu of the country of abundance, can't it create a second one?
In particular, they have learned that Yelang and the Dian King have developed water systems, and there is indeed the possibility of becoming the second country of abundance.
Now what they have to do is to send officials to govern Yelang and the King of Dian, and at the same time re-conduct a comprehensive survey of Yelang and the King of Dian, and find the second country of abundance.
The army returned to the court, and Ying Zheng also returned to Xianyang after his first eastern tour, waiting for Jin Yao's return.
"Not bad!" Ying Zheng looked at Fusu and nodded with satisfaction, but he didn't say anything, even if he killed Hu Ji, it was as if nothing had happened.
After Jin Yao returned to Xianyang, he also stopped and began to preside over the construction of the track from Xianyang to the Western Regions.
Ying Zheng taught Fusu for a few months, but he couldn't sit still anymore, and started the eastern tour again to inspect the world.
Daqin has also entered a high-speed recuperation, and the number of newborns has far exceeded that of any previous era.
"Drowned!" Fu Su looked at the note uploaded in the pass in his hand, and then handed it to Feng Quji.
Feng Quji also frowned, Daqin is in a waste and does not raise waste, but the number of children that a family can support is also leisurely, and therefore, under the clan etiquette, every household wants more boys, so if it is a girl, they will find a way to drown.
And it's not just one place, not just Guanzhong, but the whole of Daqin.
"Let the Tingwei Mansion issue a decree prohibiting similar incidents, severely punish all families who drown female babies, and at the same time urge the local government to do a good job of prevention, if it happens again, all local officials will be listed as subordinates in the annual examination!" Fusu said solemnly.
"Whoa!" Feng Qujian nodded.
Local officials must also turn a blind eye to this kind of thing, so it must be restrained by a new decree issued by the Tingwei Mansion, and then urged to implement it.
Only when it endangers itself can local officials dare not fail to implement it seriously.
"After all, it is a palliative rather than a cure!" Feng Qujian said in a low voice.
In the final analysis, it is because the people are too poor, otherwise they would not have published this next volume.
"Daqin doesn't support waste people, as long as he has the ability, he can have a way to feed his family, everything else is an excuse!" Fusu did not agree with Feng Quji's statement.
