Five days later, the second fleet led by Teng Zhong returned to Langya Harbor.

In mid-December, Emperor Eight Troubles and the second group of traitors were escorted back to Xianyang.

Xianyang, Xianyang Palace, Chaohui.

“…… So far, Qindong Island has all returned to Great Qin, this battle killed 100,000 enemies, captured 52 traitors, captured the traitor Xu Fu, and the leader of the Yi people, Emperor Baji...... Please ask Your Majesty to increase the number of counties in Qindong Island! ”

Zhao Shanben's voice fell, and all the officials congratulated in unison: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, Your Majesty for 10,000 years, Daqin for 10,000 years!" ”

I nodded slightly, the easy conquest of Wajima had been expected by me, and there was nothing to be surprised about.

"Now Qindong Island has been decided, so Qindong Island is divided into six counties, respectively named the southern end of Dokdo as Daiyu County, the southeast Dokdo as Yuanqiao County, the main island from south to north as Penglai South County, Penglai County, Penglai North County, and the northern Dokdo Island as Pingliao County. Men were sent to survey the terrain and then divide the counties. ”

I looked at Li Si: "Li Xiang, this matter will be handled by you." ”

Li Si bowed and said yes.

"Zhang Han, tomorrow all the rebels and Yi leaders will be escorted to the southern suburbs of Xianyang to behead the public!"

"Obey orders!"

I glanced around and continued, "In addition, how to rule Qindong Island, everyone, let's talk about it. ”

Yu He got up and said: "Your Majesty, the general's report said that Qindong Island is very suitable for growing rice, and the rice brought by those traitors can already achieve three crops a year in some places, and the minister thinks that it can make the local Yi people plant rice on a large scale, so that not only can the local garrison provide grain and grass, but also produce enough in the future to be transported to the Great Wall by sea for military needs." ”

Feng Zai continued: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Qindong Island is lonely overseas, and in addition to increasing the number of troops stationed there, it is also necessary to rotate the garrison at a fixed time, otherwise I am afraid that after a long time, the soldiers will miss their hometown and cause chaos." In addition, officials and doctors should also be sent to educate the local Yi people. ”

Ge Yue stood up and agreed: "The minister agrees with the proposal of the Imperial Doctor and Feng Xiang. ”

Everyone basically didn't know much about the island, and they all spoke out in agreement.

After everyone's voices gradually stopped, Li Si stood up and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal." However, the minister thought that the premise of all this was that Great Qin could guarantee his rule on Qindong Island! ”

I smiled slightly, and it had to be Li Si: "What is the best plan for Li Xiang?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has not been in contact with the Yi people, but it can be seen from the Xiongnu and Donghu, I heard what the report said, the Yi people have not even been civilized, so it is necessary to ensure that the Yi people can read Qin characters and know Qin rites after two or three generations at most, before that, it is not appropriate for Daqin to teach the Yi people on a large scale the art of agricultural and industrial medicine, otherwise it will be unassimilated, and it will be rebellious after it is strong!"

I nodded in agreement and looked at everyone: "What do you think?" ”

Li Si's proposal was reasonable, and everyone naturally had no objection, but Yu He got up and said: "Your Majesty, what Li Xiang said is very much in favor of the ministers, but if you want to civilize the Yi people in three generations, I am afraid that Great Qin will consume a lot." ”

"You have a point." I smiled and said, "Since it costs a lot of money and food to educate them, then simply don't educate them." ”

Everyone was a little puzzled, and Yu He was puzzled: "What does Your Majesty mean?" ”

"Great Qin's occupation of Qindong Island is just a chance for the Qinnan Fleet to fight in preparation for the attack on the Qinnan Peninsula and the Mauryan Empire on the Kunlun South Peninsula, and I never intended to spend too much energy on Qindong Island. The only useful resource on the island is the Yi people, maybe some silver deposits, and the purpose of Great Qin is also to let them grow rice and mine mineral deposits, so it is better to keep them in an uncivilized state, not allow them to learn any words, and only select some obedient Yi people to assist the Qin people in managing them, so that they can be used by Great Qin without investing too many resources, what do you think? ”

"This ......" Everyone was a little dazed for a moment, so what was the difference between those Yi people and slaves?

Li Si thought for a moment and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, will this move provoke a rebellion from the Yi people?" ”

"Definitely, but I don't think there's a need to worry, they don't even know how to use iron tools, how can they resist? Even if they resist, it is easy to solve, and the six counties are ordered to build a city like Yongcheng to ensure that there is water and grain storage, and the Yi people are not allowed to enter the city, they can only live in the outer city, if they resist, the Qin people in each county only need to stick to the city, and then send a large army to kill it directly. ”

Tai Yue couldn't sit still a little, got up and said carefully: "Your Majesty...... Will this be a murderous crime? ”

I snorted coldly and said lightly, "Do you have a better way?" If it is true that all the Yi people rebelled against Great Qin, I would be happy to hear it, and directly send the Qin army to slaughter the entire Qindong Island, Nan Shizuo reported that the population of Qindong Island was only about 1.5 million, and 100,000 had been killed, and the remaining 1.4 million would be killed very quickly. ”

Everyone was speechless, as if there really was no more one-size-fits-all solution than killing them clean.

After discussing for a long time, the general rules of the "Yiren Law" were formulated directly at the court meeting, with only three simple contents:

First, the Yi people are slaves, and they are not allowed to enter the counties and ports, leave the pavilion, intermarry with the Qin people, keep books privately, and learn etiquette.

Second, Yi people over the age of fifteen must pay ten stone of grain every year as a tax, which can be replaced by mineral deposits of the same value and other equivalent items recognized by Daqin, and those who cannot pay can be made up by the people of the same pavilion, and those who violate one pavilion and twenty-five households will be punished with lifelong servitude;

Third, Daqin is only responsible for checking the population of the Yi people, collecting taxes, and does not directly manage the Yi people, and the Yi people themselves elect the pavilion chief to manage, and the pavilion chief must truthfully report the household registration and pay the taxes on time.

Later, he instructed Li Si and others to further refine the law of Yiren, and the central idea was to weaken his mind and punish him harshly!

The court meeting dispersed, and Li Si and the four of them walked out of the Xianyang Hall together.

Yu He glanced at Li Si strangely, and arched his hand: "Li Xiang, Your Majesty seems to be particularly disgusted with Yiren?" The same was true for the last time Kunlun slaves were treated, why is that? ”

Feng Zheng and Zhang Han also looked at Li Si, Li Si shook his head slightly, stroked his goatee and said: "The old man doesn't know, His Majesty just said that they should not be educated, but the matter of Yiren has not been mentioned to the old man." ”

Feng Zheng nodded, and then sneered and said: "It is said that the Yi people are not as tall as the sword, and they are also extremely ugly, not as good as my Daqin's children, Feng is going to go to the southern suburbs of Xianyang tomorrow to have a look, can the princes go with you?" ”

Li Si shook his head: "I'm old, I can't make up for this excitement, and the old man won't accompany Feng Xiang." ”

Yu He's face was as black as iron: "It's an ugly barbarian like a mountain spirit and a ghost, what is there to see, the old man won't go." ”

Zhang Han was the youngest, scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Feng Xiang, you are already pregnant, and Zhang should not go to that fierce place." ”

Feng Zai: "...... Leave! ”
