Half a month later.
Wang Ben also led the jungle army and many Baiyue tribes, and captured the Fang Kingdom and returned in a mighty manner.
Ying Zheng made a special trip to hold a grand commendation ceremony for the two super commanders Han Xin and Wang Ben, as well as many generals who had made outstanding contributions in the war to conquer Baiyue.
Han Xin was quite happy to get his first achievement.
Although he followed the war god Wang Jian in the north and made many military exploits, the Battle of Baiyue was Han Xin's real first battle!
The meaning is extraordinary!
Wang Ben was also quite convinced of Han Xin. The other party really used his troops like a god, and he was not as good as Han Xin!
In addition, Ying Zheng ordered Han Xin and Wang Ben to take nearly 50,000 captured soldiers from Baiyue and mix them into Qin's jungle army, and undergo rigorous training and running-in.
After preparing to rest for a month, the army set off to conquer many small kingdoms in Southeast Asia and open the way to the Mauryan Dynasty in South Asia.
The passage connecting ancient India and China passed through Myanmar.
In ancient times, when Chinese merchants wanted to send goods to India, or Indian merchants wanted to sell goods to China, they always used the Myanmar Passage as a transit point.
If the Qin army wanted to conquer the Mauryan Dynasty in ancient India, it must open up this passage in Myanmar and firmly control it.
From now on, the grain, grass, baggage, soldiers and other supplies provided by Xiao He will all be transported through the Burma Passage.
According to what the teacher said, Southeast Asia is still very backward at the moment, with only some sporadic tribes existing. They are much weaker than the tribes in Baiyue Fang Kingdom, and there is no comparison at all.
Later, Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia, Malay, etc. were established hundreds of years later.
Within this month.
Ying Zheng issued an edict to merge the Baiyue kingdoms into the Qin Empire, and established four counties: Minzhong County, Nanhai County, Guilin County and Xiang County.
Ying Zheng also transferred a group of civil servants and officials from the Qin Dynasty to serve as officials in the four counties, and the remaining officials used a large number of talented people from the four counties to serve.
Civil and military divisions.
Ying Zheng sent two generals, each with 20,000 troops stationed in the four counties of Baiyue. They were not under the management of the county guards, but directly took orders from the imperial court.
Since the 50,000 elite indigenous soldiers from Baiyue have all been integrated into the Great Qin Jungle Army, plus the Baiyue tribes, the leaders of the Fang Kingdom are dead and migrating, and they no longer have the ability to counterattack.
Originally, Baiyue Land had a small population, so 50,000 elite soldiers was almost the limit they could mobilize.
Forty thousand troops stationed in the four counties of Baiyue were enough to maintain order.
In order for Baiyue to integrate into the Qin Dynasty as soon as possible, Ying Zheng also gave many policy comforts and implemented a gentle strategy.
For example, they will be exempted from taxes for five years; distribute high-quality potatoes and sweet potato grain seeds to every household; build a large number of schools to teach Baiyue children to read and read for free; encourage merchants from the Central Plains to do business in the New Fourth County, etc.
Yingzheng, the four counties of Baiyue, was administered as a local administration, not a colonial one.
He believed that with the promotion of potatoes and sweet potato cultivation in Baiyue, coupled with the influence of Central Plains culture, Baiyue would integrate into the Great Qin in a few years and truly become a part of the Great Qin.
By then, the population of Baiyue will continue to increase and it will also become rich.
It is also worth mentioning that after the Qin Dynasty conquered the entire territory of Baiyue, the system also rewarded Chen Qilin with 5,000 Heavenly Dao Points.
This reward can be said to be quite generous.
Chen Qilin is naturally very happy to have a large amount of income from Tiandao Points.
A month passed by in a blink of an eye.
On this day, Ying Zheng, Chen Qilin and his party came to the beach!
Yes, they were going to take a naval boat led by Tu Sui to go to the Mauryan Dynasty in ancient India.
Taking a boat is more comfortable and faster than taking those land routes with high mountains and dangers.
Ying Zheng ordered Han Xin, Wang Bi, Peng Yue, Zhang Han, Zhao Tuo, Ren Xiao and other generals to lead a million-strong army to conquer Southeast Asia and enter the Mauryan Dynasty.
Before Ying Zheng left, he had already made arrangements. After opening up the passage to the Mauryan Dynasty, Ren Xiao would lead a 20,000 jungle army to conquer the entire Southeast Asia.
The rest of the army, led by generals such as Han Xin, Wang Bi, Zhang Han, Peng Yue, etc., headed straight for the Maurya Dynasty.
To conquer a small and barbaric Southeast Asia, Ren Xiao's 20,000 jungle army is enough.
Ying Zheng doesn't want his army to waste time here.
Ying Zheng also left an edict. After Ren Xiao conquered all of Southeast Asia, he ordered Ren Xiao to be the general in charge of Southeast Asia, and then dispatched some officials from the imperial court to govern it.
Ying Zheng planned to establish three counties in Southeast Asia, namely Myanmar County, Thailand County, and Malay County, and bring Southeast Asia into Da Qin's localized management.
In the near future, the entire Southeast Asia will also be full of vitality because of the Qin Dynasty.
…
now.
Chen Qilin, Ying Zheng and others arrived at the coastal pier.
It was discovered that a mighty and majestic fleet has been docked here. The ten treasure ships are like giants on the sea, which makes people's hearts beat. The other thousands of blessing ships are also neatly arranged and majestic!
On each ship, the Great Qin Black Dragon Flag was flying and making a hunting sound.
Ying Zheng looked at the Great Qin Navy and couldn't help but praise:
"The Great Qin Navy is so magnificent!!!"
Chen Qilin looked at the huge fleet and felt a rare feeling of excitement.
This was his first close-up visit to the Daqin Navy, which was built according to the Ming Dynasty naval ship design drawings. It was also his first time to see the famous treasure ship up-close.
The treasure ship is a huge wooden sailing ship, like a modern small aircraft carrier, 148 meters long and 60 meters wide.
The ship has four floors. Its nine masts can carry twelve sails. The anchor weighs several thousand kilograms. It takes two to three hundred people to set sail... It is not an exaggeration to describe the treasure ship as a giant on the sea.
Chen Qilin looked at the Qin Navy in front of him and couldn't help but think of the Ming Navy.
The Ming Navy was the largest navy in the world at that time. It reached its peak under Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty and owned 3,800 ships, of which 250 were ocean-going treasure ships.
The famous Zheng He fleet was actually just a maritime mobile fleet of the powerful Ming Empire Navy.
The total size of the Ming Dynasty Navy is equivalent to 10 Spanish Armadas.
From the end of the Yuan Dynasty when Zhu Yuanzhang crossed the Yangtze River and the Battle of Poyang Lake to Zheng Chenggong's recovery of Taiwan, the Ming Dynasty's navy never suffered a defeat for nearly three hundred years.
Even at the end of the corrupt Ming Dynasty, the Ming Navy still defeated the powerful Dutch fleet in the Battle of Penghu and the Battle of Liaoluo Bay...
It is a pity that ancient Chinese military has always emphasized land warfare over water warfare, so the glory of the Ming Dynasty navy was drowned because of this.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?" Mr. Ying Zheng saw that he was in a daze and couldn't help asking.
Chen Qilin came back to his senses and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I just thought of something. I hope your majesty can make the Great Qin Navy powerful in the world!"
"Don't worry, sir, my Great Qin Navy will live up to your expectations!"
Ying Zheng took Chen Qilin's big hand and said boldly: "Sir, let's board the ship and go to conquer the Maurya Dynasty!"
Chen Qilin nodded and followed Ying Zheng towards the most majestic main ship, the Treasure Ship.
Swish, swish, swish!
Tu Sui led the 100,000 Qin navy troops to kneel down on the deck and shouted in unison:
"Welcome Your Majesty, Sir, board the ship!!!"
The shouts of 100,000 people gathered together, resounding throughout the sea and sky, making people excited!
