Du Qi's gaze fell on Fuyu Fan's face. Fuyu Fan's heart thumped non-stop. He didn't expect Du Qi to be so ruthless. He knelt on the ground and said again, "Emperor Xia, I sincerely pledge my allegiance. Please accept me."
Du Qi shook his head and said, "There's no use keeping you. Whether it's the nobles of Xinluo or Baekje, I'll wash them with blood. Without them, it'll be much easier for me to govern Xinluo and Baekje. "
Fuyu Fan sighed in his heart.
In the end, he still couldn't escape death.
Fuyu Fan looked up at Du Qi and gritted his teeth, "Du Qi, Baekje has been established for hundreds of years. Even Xinluo and Goguryeo have a long history. You might be able to occupy these places in a short time. But as time passes, our people will definitely make a comeback. It's impossible for you to occupy these places permanently. "
Du Qi said, "You don't have to worry about this. But I still have to say that after I take down Goguryeo, Xinluo, and Baekje, I'll destroy the three countries and destroy their writing, system, and everything else. Everyone will speak Xia Xia's official language and read Xia Xia's books. Everything about them would change. At that time, they will be a part of Xia Xia. "
Fuyu Fan gritted his teeth and said, "Impossible. You can't reach this step."
Du Qi smiled and didn't say anything. Because to Du Qi, there was no need to explain. It might seem difficult for him to govern Liaodong Peninsula, but in fact, it wasn't difficult. After all, the people of Xinluo, Goguryeo, and Baekje were all oppressed. It wasn't difficult for Du Qi to win the hearts of the people.
Furthermore, Fuyu Fan said that Goguryeo and the other two countries had been established for a long time. But in reality, these three countries were forever imitating the Celestial Empire. The so-called long history was just a joke.
Du Qi ordered, "Men, kill Fuyu Fan."
The soldiers stepped forward and killed Fuyu Fan.
Fuyu Fan was killed, whether it was Xin Luo or Baekje soldiers, they were all uneasy. After all, Du Qi had killed two people in a row. They were afraid that Du Qi would kill them as well. Therefore, they all felt uneasy.
Du Qi looked at the people who were detained.
He pondered.
As for the captured Goguryeon soldiers, since they had arrived in Pyongyang and taken down Pyongyang, they could be dealt with immediately. However, the problem was that the number of captured Xinluo and Baekje soldiers was not small. In addition to the captives they had killed along the way, there were countless of them. It was troublesome to keep them by their side, but they had to deal with them properly.
Du Qi pondered. Suddenly, a plan came to his mind.
It was actually very simple to deal with these people.
After all, he was an ordinary person.
Du Qi immediately arranged for the captured Xinluo and Baekje soldiers to be brought forward. After placing all the captives together, he continued, "All of you, listen up. This Emperor killed his way into Goguryeo not to target you, nor to destroy you. This Emperor is here to save you.
"Whether it is the people of Goguryeo, Xinluo, or Baekje, they are all people of the lowest class. There is no possibility of promotion. They will be lowly people for the rest of their lives.
"This Emperor is here to do three things.
"First, kill all the nobles. For example, Yeon Gaesomun of Goguryeo will be executed. For example, Jinderman of Xinluo, Jin Chunqiu, and Jin Yuxin have already been killed. Next, it will be the same in Baekje.
"None of these people who bully the people will be left alive."
Du Qi spoke frankly. However, when he mentioned this point, many people were still the same. When they looked at Du Qi, there was still a trace of worry in their eyes. They were all worried that they would be killed.
After all, if the nobles died, there would be new ones. It had nothing to do with them.
In any case, they were used to it.
Du Qi was not anxious. He continued, "Second, all the land in Goguryeo, Xinluo, and Baekje will be taken over by this Emperor and owned by Xia Xia. Then, the imperial court will calculate the population and distribute the land according to the number of people in each household. You will be given land to cultivate yourselves. After you cultivate, you will not have to pay taxes. You will reap how much you cultivate.
"As long as there are people, there will be land to cultivate.
"In this Emperor's Xia Xia, all the tillers will have land so that you can all have your own land. This is the biggest change, and also the most fundamental difference between Xia Xia, Xinluo, and Baekje. "
After Du Qi said this, many people were in an uproar. This was because Xia Xia's treatment was simply too good. On the contrary, many of them did not have land in their respective countries. Most of them relied on renting land to cultivate. Their lives were very difficult. This was because the land in the country was in the hands of the nobles. The lowest common people lived a life of exile.
The soldiers began to discuss.
Moreover, countless people were already moved by the benefits that Du Qi had proposed.
Du Qi was not surprised when he saw the people discussing. That was because words alone wouldn't work in order to drive these people. What was needed was actual benefits.
This was the foundation.
Du Qi waited for the soldiers of Xinluo and Baekje to discuss for a while before raising his hand to signal for everyone to be quiet. When the surroundings were silent, Du Qi continued, "Third, I will set up schools in Xinluo, Baekje, and Goguryeo so that everyone who can study can study. Moreover, as long as anyone has made contributions, whether it is great contributions on the battlefield or meritorious contributions to the country, the imperial court will not be stingy with rewards. "
When everyone heard this, they were even more excited.
Especially the soldiers of Xinluo, they were even more excited. Xinluo's bone quality system restricted people's promotion, making it impossible for the poor to be promoted to officials. It made it so that officials could only be officials for the rest of their lives.
It was the same for the people of Baekje.
At least they saw hope.
After Du Qi said a few words, he finally said, "Alright, that's all I have to say. Now, all of you can leave and return to your own places of residence. Wait for my Xia Xia's army to sweep through the various places. "
"All of you can disperse."
Du Qi waved his hand and ordered.
The current Xinluo country could not pose a threat to Du Qi. And these soldiers returning to their own places of residence could further publicize Du Qi's situation. Even if they did not publicize it, and even if the people were indifferent, at least one thing was important, and that was that Xia Xia's strength had left an impression on everyone.
This was very important.
As for the soldiers of Baekje, it was the same. They just wanted to publicize Du Qi's strength.
It made the people of Baekje who still wanted to resist lose their fighting spirit.
One by one, the soldiers quickly left. They did not stay any longer. In a short period of time, other than the corpses on the ground, there were no other soldiers of Xinluo and Baekje.
The army dealt with all the corpses and returned to Pyongyang first.
The army needed to rest for a while.
