Sulanan smiled bitterly and said: "Everyone has ambitions and desires. It would be a lie to say that I didn't have such thoughts before. But after meeting the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I was shocked by what His Majesty said. Damn it! Those who are powerful will be punished even if they are far away. Such ambitions are not as good as mine. However, the Ryukyu Kingdom regards the Tang Dynasty as its suzerainty, and it is normal to ask the suzerainty state to accept it. We also know that only the Tang Dynasty can truly let the Ryukyu Kingdom. The people can live a good life." Although Changsun Chong had this idea in his heart, he did not expect Suranan to say it out in person, saying: "Master Su understands the righteousness and I admire you, but this matter should not be rushed, otherwise it will cause trouble in the Ryukyu Kingdom. The resentment of the people will be a thankless task for us in the Tang Dynasty." Suranan smiled bitterly and said: "Haha, it's hard to say, but as long as I live in the Ryukyu Kingdom, I will definitely fulfill what I said today. Although it is tempting. , but the people of the Ryukyu Kingdom can live a prosperous life like the people of the Tang Dynasty, and Su will die without regrets, not because of anything else, just because the people of Su have little requirements, as long as they eat. Just being well-fed and well-clothed is enough, but such a simple request is a luxury. Although the Japanese are hateful, if the ruler of our country is ambitious, wise, does not like luxury, and is good at employing people, the Ryukyu Kingdom will not be without troops to defend against the enemy. The common people are living in poverty and have been oppressed by the Japanese state. To put it bluntly, if the Tang Dynasty was not our suzerain country, we would have been annexed and destroyed by the Japanese state." Changsun Chong was very moved after hearing this, and said: "If it really happened. I will explain it to Your Majesty one day. It is only necessary that the people of the Ryukyu Kingdom are willing to do so. "Thank you, General Changsun," Suranan said gratefully. The prisoners of war have been collected. , it¡¯s time to proceed to the next step. Changsun Chong heard this and said: "You're welcome. Maybe we will become colleagues in the future." Sulanan should have smiled easily just now. He will work with the Tang Dynasty in the future. Doing something good for the people is also right. He can no longer afford the folks who once provided him with hundreds of meals. After a while, the big ship finally docked. Dai Zhicheng was notified of the Clippers and had already led everyone out to greet him. Both sides of the pier were filled with low-level officials and soldiers who had followed Dai Zhicheng to Ryukyu, followed by numerous skinny Ryukyu people. The few ships Dai Zhicheng brought here were already big, but in front of the battleship here. More than one. There were many ships, including captives and more than 30 Japanese warships. The people of the Ryukyu Kingdom have been suppressed by the mighty soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. Look at the armor on their bodies. Shining and shining, look at the spear in his hand. Extremely sharp. It can penetrate even boulders. Dai Zhicheng respectfully welcomed Li Jing, Changsun Chong, Cheng Yaojin, Duan Zhixuan and others at the edge of the pier. As a junior, Changsun Chong can only be at the end, ouch. Oh my god, what can such a short city wall block? The Japanese country has been fighting for so long and has not won yet. It shows how poor the combat effectiveness is. Although Dai Zhicheng is here, Changsun Chong cannot relax. Nothing can happen to these old generals. , tell the people behind you to protect the old generals. Dai Zhicheng has prepared everything, but who knows if there are Japanese spies here. You must know that the royal family of Ryukyu Kingdom were all killed by the Japanese, so we should not take it lightly. Entering the city, the defensive city defenses here were immediately replaced by the Tang army. A steady stream of food was moved off the ships. The people of Ryukyu Kingdom, who had been nervous for such a long time, saw the reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty coming back and lined the streets to welcome them. With the Tang army, we were finally no longer afraid of the Japanese coming over again. The troops of the Tang Dynasty were strictly disciplined. Before disembarking, they received repeated reprimands from Li Jing. When they arrived in the Ryukyu Kingdom, just like in the Tang Dynasty, all disciplines had to be observed. Therefore, after entering the city, they did not disturb the people and did not take advantage of them. Needle and thread. Dai Zhicheng welcomed Li Jing and others into the prepared residence. This was a residence of King Qin in the Ryukyu Kingdom. It was very clean. Apart from the imperial palace, this place was considered a prepared place. Dai Zhicheng reported to Li Jing and talked about the actions of the Ryukyu Kingdom. "General Li, this city is called Baicheng, located in the northern half of Ryukyu Kingdom. I have convinced the local people to rent it to us so that we can grow food and be self-sufficient in food and grass in advance." Dai Zhicheng said solemnly. "Then the Ryukyu Congress will object?" Li Jing asked, this is the most important thing, the reputation of Datang cannot be affected. Dai Zhicheng replied respectfully: "The people of the Ryukyu Kingdom have a very good impression of our Tang Dynasty. If it were not for the Weichen who led the people to govern the country and resist the Japanese country, the current Ryukyu Kingdom would no longer exist. The rice seeds we brought before were here for a year You can plant for four seasons, and you have already harvested one season, which has greatly eased the situation here. Many officials have even surrendered and want to become our subjects of the Tang Dynasty. " "Well, that's good!" Li Jing nodded, "Be careful when you act, don't lose the power of the Tang Dynasty, let alone let people think that we, the Tang Dynasty, are bullying the weak." "Yes, sir!" Dai Zhicheng said respectfully. "It's okay for the time being. You continue to take over the government affairs of the Ryukyu Kingdom and select more capable officials to participate in governance. I hope to restore the normal production order of the Ryukyu Kingdom as soon as possible." Li Jing explained, "By the way, this is General Changsun, and he is also He will be involved in local government affairs. If there is anything he doesn¡¯t understand, please give him some advice." When Changsun Chong heard about him, he hurriedly said, "I will be responsible for you in the future." "This is my duty, General Changsun. You're welcome, who doesn't know that General Changsun is a good hand at handling government affairs? I'm willing to bow down and learn more from General Changsun." Dai Zhicheng said with a smile, whether it is Bagua City, Dingzhou, Hebei and other places, they all show great achievements. On the bright side, with the addition of Chang Sun Chong, the Ryukyu Kingdom can return to normal as soon as possible. The crisis of overwhelming the army has been lifted. We must build a military base first and then we can plan for it slowly. "Well, General Changsun, you can go out with Mr. Dai and get to know him better." Li Jing began to drive people away. He was now making plans to prepare the next battle plan. Dai Zhicheng rushed out of Li Jing's room with his eldest grandson. He felt much more relaxed outside and said, "Just now, the eyes of the people of the Ryukyu Kingdom almost dropped to the ground when they saw our Tang soldiers. In fact, it doesn't matter to them who becomes the emperor. What's important is that they can live a good life. For the vassal country, the Tang Dynasty can give them blessings. Wouldn't it be better if they became the common people of the Tang Dynasty? They also heard that the Tang Dynasty sent troops only because the Japanese country had massacred the country. A village in the Tang Dynasty sent troops out of revenge. You know, the Ryukyu Kingdom was plundered by the Japanese every year. More than one village was burned, looted, and killed every time. This is the most important reason why the Ryukyu Kingdom hated the Japanese." Changsun Chong sighed. , this Japanese country has been plundering the people since the beginning of the country, so this time we must destroy the Japanese country and turn this aggressiveness into servility. "Well, it's good that the people have this idea. Now that we have big ships, we can control it here. Moreover, it can also be used as a resting place for Western business travelers. The trade must be prosperous; the climate here is very hot, and rice can By planting it all year round, you can receive countless amounts of food this year. Even though Ryukyu is a small country, it is rich in mineral deposits and contains many treasures." Changsun Chong added, implying that the territory of Ryukyu Kingdom already belongs to us. From the Tang Dynasty. Dai Zhicheng's heart was surging. He was just a civil servant. If he wanted to expand the territory, it was really not an easy task. Fortunately, he participated this time and won Ryukyu, so he had a job to expand the territory. The merit of earth. It's a little difficult to get a title, but it's absolutely no problem to get a rank, so he has to work hard and try to wear the purple robe. Dai Zhicheng took Changsun Chong around the city and said: "This city is depressed only because all manpower and material resources are used to resist the Japanese invasion. Now that it is better, with a large army, I can rectify the market." "Yes. , It just so happens that we also brought a lot of things from the Tang Dynasty this time, just in time to open a store. The civilians of Ryukyu Kingdom have no money, but the nobles have a lot of money." Changsun Chong looked at the empty store, which was a pity. Dai Zhicheng nodded and said: "That's great. Several embroidery purses I brought before were exchanged. They used gold and silver. They are really rich." Changsun Chong said: "Haha, then this This time we can make a lot of money. By the way, this time we brought more rice seeds. Are we going to plant them ourselves or distribute them to the people of Ryukyu Kingdom?" Dai Zhicheng thought for a while and said: "In order to appease more rice seeds. We can give half a kilogram of rice seeds to a family of Ryukyu people. With these rice seeds, at least they can have enough to eat this year. We take the opportunity to send some rice planting technicians to help them and let them know about the country. Tang was even more yearning for it. The Baixin people were living a good life, and everything was going to fall into place. Changsun Chong heard this and said, "Haha, that's great. Anyway, I brought a lot of watermelon seeds." big watermelon. Changsun Chong rested for two days and then began to fully devote himself to work. He rode his horse and took everyone around to see the surrounding environment. The Tang Dynasty brought very advanced production tools, more wasteland was mined, and even many people from the Ryukyu Kingdom came to learn farming. As for those in the Ryukyu Kingdom who have no land, they are invited to mine and given a lot of wages. These mines were not obtained by the Tang Dynasty for nothing, but they were bought for 50,000 taels of silver. All this money was given to the people of the Ryukyu Kingdom in the form of items, the most of which was food. Many homeless people in the country have found jobs here.?For those who have no ability to work, there are people who are responsible for providing pensions. As long as they come, they will have porridge to eat. The common people saw the sincerity of the Tang Dynasty. The officials of the Tang Dynasty never bullied ordinary people, which made the people closer to the Tang Dynasty. (To be continued)
