Chapter 529: Arrive in the Americas, Colonize the Wa Kingdom, and Turn the Pacific Ocean into the Great Han Inland Sea!
All three sailboats sold out of merchandise and were exchanged for a full stockpile of gold and spice crops.
Everyone has seen gold, but the spices and crops are something new that has never been seen before.
These crops were sent to Chang'an City by fast horses and presented to the Son of Heaven.
When Liu He saw the dry corn and sweet potatoes, he almost cried with joy in front of a group of cabinet courtiers.
These two crops are plants endemic to South America, and I didn't expect this fleet to find South America.
Whether it's South America or North America, it's easy to do it if you've been there once.
This not only expanded the living space of the Chinese nation, but also provided impetus for the development of the Han Dynasty in the future.
As long as there are benefits to be made, the people of Dahan will naturally push Dahan forward.
Liu He immediately issued an edict to print out all the books of secret art that he had copied in the past ten years, and sold them to the whole people at a low price.
"Optics", "Steel", "Chemistry", "Physics", "Textiles......
These secret methods that can create wealth out of thin air are no longer secret methods, but have become knowledge that everyone has at their fingertips.
Many of the things recorded above take a long time to make.
But as long as there is a principle, among the tens of millions of people in Dahan, there will always be people who will stand up and promote the development of the world.
Under the double stimulation of the discovery of the New World and the implementation of new secret methods, the Han Dynasty entered an era of "hurricane advance".
Every day, sailing ships large and small leave the harbor and head south and east to join the gold rush to the New World.
Traveling to the New World was a dangerous affair, so the closer Wa Kingdom became a more realistic option.
A large number of landless or landless people, a large number of concubines and sons-in-law who wanted to prove themselves, and a large number of giant families who wanted to make a profit, began to cross the sea to immigrate to the Japanese country.
Of course, it was still the fleet of the East Fusang Company and the Southern and Northern armies of the Han Dynasty that took the lead.
At this time, the Wa Kingdom was in what would later be known as the "Yayoi Period", and many small kingdoms had already appeared on the island of Kyushu.
It is not so much a small country as a slightly larger village, comparable to the 36 kingdoms of the Western Regions that gradually disappeared seven or eight years ago.
From the late Warring States period to the turn of the Qin and Han dynasties, Chinese people crossed the sea and brought rice and bronze ware to the Wa Kingdom, giving it a civilized form.
Otherwise, the original inhabitants would be more like wild men who drank blood.
Thousands of Han troops landed, and the small states established by the Japanese were powerless to fight back and fell apart.
After the Han army cleared all the obstacles, tens of thousands of Han people came by boat, directly occupied the land that had been reclaimed by the Japanese people, and finally stood firm on the land.
As for the indigenous Japanese people, those who are willing to accept the Taoism of the Han Dynasty can stay, and the Japanese people with a strong sense of resistance will be dispersed and forcibly relocated to the area of Cangwu County to reclaim the wasteland.
The remaining Japanese must learn Chinese, wear Hanfu, and learn Confucianism: those who speak Japanese language privately, wear Japanese clothes, and worship the Japanese gods will be executed in public.
In the original historical line, the Han Dynasty supported the Wa Kingdom for many years and brought advanced agricultural and metallurgical technology here.
Although this can demonstrate the benevolence of the Han Dynasty, it also buries a disaster.
I'm afraid no one could have imagined that this small island country would eventually become a big problem for China.
This is like a savage people, and it makes tens of millions of unjust souls in China unable to rest in peace.
Liu He has the virtue of a good life, and of course he is not willing to slaughter the Japanese people for what did not happen, but he must let them change their blood and replant, and not give them a chance to survive.
In the autumn of the thirteenth year of Dingxin, the Son of Heaven issued an edict from Chang'an to establish the Handong Protectorate in Japan, under the jurisdiction of four counties, Kyushu, Honshu and Beihai.
At this point, the Japanese kingdom, like Korea, was completely incorporated into the territory of the Han Dynasty and lost the possibility of its existence as a state.
This is also another purpose for Liu He to come to this world, that is, to eliminate the potential enemies of Huaxia as much as possible.
The suppression of the suppression, the annexation of the annexation, the fusion of the fusion, the removal of the decapitation.
Eradicating those aliens who do not understand the etiquette and legal system and do not know how to be grateful is a task that must be completed.
With the establishment of the Eastern Protectorate of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty obtained a bridgehead to the west, and the number of people who went to sea was more than ten times greater than the original.
As a result, these islands, which later became known as Midway, Iwo Jima, and Hawaii, were discovered one by one, and docks were built that could be used for transfer.
The road to the sea of the Han Dynasty is getting smoother and smoother - the north and south of America have successively had the Tuntianwei of the Han people.
Of course, the islands also have new names: all of them are named after the 28 nakshatras.
Midway Island was changed to Kakujuku Island, Iwo Jima was changed to Kangjuku Island, and Hawaii Island was changed to Bojuku Island...... Other important islands also have their own names.
Once the Han soldiers and civilians landed on these or other islands, the first thing they did was to lay stone monuments on all sides and in the center.
The front of the stele is engraved with the words "The shore of the land, Mo Fei Han soil" and "The dragon pattern of the Han flag", and on the back is the edict of the discovery of the island and the oath of sovereignty.
In this way, even if thousands of years later, the Han people on the island are lost for some reason, it is still well documented, and China can still claim sovereignty.
The Han Dynasty's activities at sea became more and more extensive, and the silk, tea, and cotton cloth shipped out were exchanged for gold, silver, and spices, which in turn were transported to Europa in exchange for gold and silver.
However, Liu He did not value gold and silver, and these yellow and white things were just "floating wealth" to attract the Han people to move forward.
In order to obtain more gold and silver, the wealthy or poor families of the big men will spontaneously improve their technology and increase productivity.
The blast furnaces for making steel are getting bigger, the grain production is getting higher, the speed of weaving is getting faster, and there are more and more sailing ships sailing the seas......
From manpower to animal power, from animal power to water power, and finally from water power to the power of water and fire......
These changes will start with the Yang Palace, and then with the joint efforts of the entire Han Dynasty, they will progress exponentially and complete the technological explosion.
The secret of the secret method lies not in secrecy, but in precision - only by not hiding private secrets can the secret method be more sophisticated.
In the fifteenth year of Dingxin, Dahan ushered in another bumper year.
The number of Han people in the whole territory has reached 80 million, an increase of more than 40 million compared with the first year of Dingxin, and it is spread all over the four continents.
The total output of all grains in the whole territory is 6 billion stones, which is more than four times that of the first year of Dingxin, and there is no hunger in the world.
The total amount of tax money and grain exceeded 100 billion and 5 baht, which was seven or eight times that of the first year of Dingxin, and the warehouse was full.
Cattle and horses are abundant, galloping roads are longitudinal and horizontal, blast furnaces are spewing smoke, and sailboats are lined up...... The world is more peaceful than it was fifteen years ago.
The most important thing is that with the improvement of productivity and the acquisition of a large amount of foreign land, coupled with the rounds of suppression by the Son of Heaven, the wind of land annexation by the Han Dynasty has finally gradually disappeared.
However, when everything was developing in the direction that Liu He wanted in his heart, a dark cloud condensed in the sky and drifted towards Weiyang Palace.
