Chapter 465 Conquer! Renamed the Dongyang Islands and incorporated it into the Daqin territory!
213 BC, the thirty-fourth year of the first emperor.
Five months after Daqin Immortal and His Majesty the First Emperor went to sea for an expedition, the first official good news in writing came from the Fuji Islands.
The Fuzhu Islands were completely conquered by the Daqin army and renamed the Dongyang Islands!
Except for the 180,000 Yayoi people who were corvée, the rest of the inhabitants were the pioneers of the Daqin.
Kyushu County and Dongyang County were successively established.
Haidong Bay in Dongyang County is the main navigation port, and Qingang in Kyushu County is the main military port and shipbuilding site.
Since then, the Dongyang Islands have become the first overseas colony of Daqin and included in the territory of Daqin!
Successfully colonized the Toyo Islands.
The significance of this expedition is far greater than that of Da Qin's victory over the Xiongnu and Baiyue.
These 17 colonies mean that Daqin has the ability to conduct wars and emigrate across the continent.
It is also the first step to take over the world!
After hearing this news, the people of Daqin were immersed in joy and pride.
As a conquered Yayoi, he did not feel shame or grief for it.
They had no country to belong to.
It was their village that once gave them a sense of belonging.
Now, they have found a true sense of belonging.
Life has also taken a qualitative leap.
Even in the Toyo Islands, there are nearly 200,000 Yayoi men working as corvée.
It was also a punishment because its village was full of aggressiveness.
What's more, the term of corvée service is only five years.
If it were replaced by the slave society of the original Yayoi Islands.
It is true that the village has been completely annexed, but everyone will be enslaved in this life, regardless of gender, age, and age.
And Daqin's gentle conquest, such colonial rule, Yayoi people naturally choose to accept.
Since they can't resist, they become them.
Looking at the land and Haidong Bay that gradually disappeared and finally disappeared into the horizon, Lao Zhao felt a sigh of relief, and at the same time he was a little reluctant to part with it.
In just four months, Daqin lost less than 30,000 soldiers of 100,000 soldiers, and they won the Dongyang Islands, which is equivalent to one-fifth of Daqin's territory.
Such a feat is unprecedented.
Although it can be said that such a fast speed is mainly based on the disparity of social development.
But like this colonial war, isn't it just overwhelming social advantage?
Otherwise, I'm not as advanced as you, and I beat you in the past, isn't it courting death?
Lao Zhao sighed for a while, and couldn't help but look at Su Yu, who was thinking about something while looking at the horizon line.
Although it was said that this battle was replaced by the general of the Daqin army two years ago, the result would not be too different.
But he knew that without Su Yu.
Even if Da Qin was able to divide his forces regardless of the civil strife, it would be a fool's errand to want to attack the Eastern Islands.
Not to mention that without steam engines and steam-powered ships, can they safely sail to the Toyo Islands.
Even if they could, how could they colonize when the materials in Daqin Pass were extremely scarce?
After all, half a year after colonization, or even within a year.
All the pioneers of the Qin Dynasty who participated in the colonization had no food source and could only rely on the food reserves in the customs to support themselves.
That's nearly a million people!
Plus all aspects of construction from scratch.
I am afraid that the food, materials, and financial resources that will be consumed are four to five times that of the attack on Baiyue.
If there is no accident, it will only take half a year, and before the first batch of crops in the Oriental Archipelago matures, Daqin will be directly dragged down!
And now, because of the appearance of Su Yu, and everything that preceded it.
Popularize all kinds of crops, improve the grain reserves and comprehensive national strength of Daqin.
Promote the development of science and technology, and pave the way for the development and colonization of Daqin.
The improvement of the economic structure will enrich the treasury of Daqin, and it will no longer be as weak as before.
Only when everything developed steadily together did it finally contribute to the success of this colonization.
Rather than relying solely on military force is sufficient.
"Hey... I have to go back again." Lao Zhao looked at the seagulls constantly soaring in the sky, with a hint of envy in his eyes.
Seemingly hearing the meaning in Lao Zhao's tone, a smile appeared on Su Yu's face.
"You are still an 813 emperor, and a good start will naturally lead to a good end.
"Although the life in the past few months is unrestrained, but if you want to continue to live, you have to see the development of Daqin with your own eyes.
"When the time comes, you will consider whether you want to continue like this."
Lao Zhao smiled bitterly: "That's natural, although I was happy and comfortable during this time, I also have concerns in my heart.
Su Yu smiled and turned her head away, saying nothing more.
He naturally knew that Lao Zhao must also be very concerned about Da Qin in his heart.
After all, this is the country he shot down with one hand.
To him, Da Qin was like his own child.
Even closer than the real biological heirs like Hu Hai and Fusu.
Maybe this is the reason why Lao Zhao is tangled now.
The child is about to leave the house and continue to grow up under his wings.
The old father knew it was time to let go and had high hopes for him, but at the same time he was very reluctant and worried.
Afraid that he will learn badly outside, be bullied, and not go home...
This is simply too much in line with the status quo of the relationship between Lao Zhao and Da Qin.
