Just when the great dynasty meeting was held in Xianyang, and Qin Wangzheng and his ministers were discussing the specific details of the ten policies for governing the country, the urgent and excited voices of the messengers sounded outside the palace.

"Report! Report urgently from the Marquis of Ding'an!"

The originally warm atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze, who? Marquis of Ding'an?

Qin Wangzheng's expression instantly condensed. Someone is violating Shu? Who dares to provoke the Qin border? Could it be the overseas person Duoyu mentioned before?

The ministers looked left and right, their eyes heavy.

Marquis Ding'an has always been slow in writing documents. The last time he made an urgent report was when he raided Chu Nan. Something big had happened.

Qin Wangzheng: "Biography."

The messenger lowered his head and walked into the hall in small steps, his whole body trembling slightly.

This place may be something he will never be able to set foot in in his lifetime, but today, he has the honor to appear here and deliver orders to the king and adults.

Guangzong Yaozu!

The messenger's eyes filled with tears and his lips trembled.

And this scene fell in the eyes of Qin Wangzheng and ministers, that is, there is a big problem in Ding'an Hou!

Qin Wangzheng leaned forward with his upper body, his brows furrowed, his eyes sharp, and the hearts of others were also high.

Only the slight breathing of everyone could be heard in the hall.

The messenger's voice was hoarse and choked with sobs: "Ding'an Marquis Nanping Baiyue, please ask the king to establish a county in Nanhai."

Oh, it's Nanping Baiyue. It's not like someone violated the territory. Bashu County is fine.

Everyone let out a long sigh of relief, and a grumpy minister scolded the herald: "Ding'an Hou Kang'an, why are you making such an expression?"

"That's right! It's just Nanping Baiyue but...ah?! Nanping Baiyue?!" A minister reacted, his eyes widened like cowbells, and screamed.

This scream was like a pebble falling into a pond, causing thousands of ripples.

"What? Baiyue? When did it happen?"

"The Marquis of Ding'an sent troops secretly again?"

"Didn't she just return to Bashu not long ago? So soon?"

Some ministers couldn't believe it and quietly asked their colleagues: "What year, month and day is it today?"

"Don't ask me, I'm in a trance."

Prime Minister Wang Wan stepped forward and asked the ministers to maintain order in the court meeting and not to make any noise.

Guo Wei Wei Liao licked the heel of his teeth with his tongue and stuffed the document into his sleeve. What a sin, I spent more than half a month studying Baiyue day and night, and finally wrote a strategy to pacify Baiyue.

As a result, before this strategy was handed over, the Marquis of Ding'an defeated Baiyue.

Meng Wu hesitated and asked: "Your Majesty, this matter..."

Meng Wu scratched his head. Just now, the ministers were studying laws and regulations, but the Marquis of Ding'an came up with this incident.

It was a great achievement to pacify Baiyue, but it was a great crime to send troops privately!

Meng Wu looked at Li Si for help, what should he do? You can't convict Anhou on trial, right? But if you don't ask about the crime, where is the majesty of Qin's laws?

Just when Li Si was considering whether to take the blame for the Marquis of Ding'an, Meng Tian hesitated and said: "The Marquis of Ding'an seems to have written a document saying that he wanted to pacify Baiyue."

Ok?

The ministers were suspicious, when did it happen?

Li Si slapped his forehead suddenly: "Yes, there is such a thing! It is in the last section of the Ten Strategies for Governing the Country."

Ministers...

Marquis Ding'an's ten strategies for governing the country have a thousand words. The first 100 words talk about feelings, the middle 800 words about strategies, and the last 90 words at the end, with only one sentence: "I want to pacify Baiyue as soon as possible." Everyone thinks this sentence is an opinion, not a petition for a fight!

Meng Wu: "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king!"

The ministers congratulated each other awkwardly. None of you here really had any sense of participation in this war.

Qin Wangzheng smiled and said: "Let's see what Ding'an Marquis wrote? Oh? The tribes of Nanhai agreed to accept the jurisdiction of counties? Not bad!"

During this period, there were always people asking for help in private, interceding for the six royal families, and requesting that they be granted even a smaller vassal state.

Once this incident in the South China Sea comes out, let’s see how they can make excuses!

"Second, move the population from the Central Plains to Baiyue?" Qin Wangzheng took a deep breath, this matter was not easy to handle.

At this time, the Six Kingdoms were settled, and the population of the entire land of China dropped sharply, and the population in the north outside the homeland of Chu State was even more scarce.

A few days ago, Wang Wanli Si was still planning to move 30,000 families of Beihe people from the Three Jin Dynasties to Yuzhong to help with farming, so as to provide support for Jiuyuan County in its fight against the Huns.

Li Si even proposed to move 100,000 wealthy families from all over the world to Guanzhong.

Wang Wan: "No! After years of continuous disasters and several years of war, the population of the Central Plains has dropped sharply. It is difficult to cultivate the land in the Central Plains. How can we go to the South China Sea?"

Li Si also objected: "In the land of Baiyue, people from the Central Plains may not be able to adapt there. Moving families and traveling over mountains and ridges will do great harm to the people!"

Meng Wu: "Ding'an Hou means to go south by increasing troops. Firstly, it can maintain the stability of the South China Sea, and secondly, it can speed up the integration of the South China Sea into the Central Plains."

Li Si sneered: "Marquis Ding'an also said that women should be relaxed appropriately, allowing hundreds of thousands of soldiers to get married in the South China Sea and die in a foreign land."

Meng Wu did not dare to speak for Marquis Ding'an anymore. The fallen leaves returned to their roots. This was everyone's insistence.

Meng Tian asked Li Si: "Chu has occupied the South China Sea for a hundred years, can it get help from the South China Sea? Do you have other ideas for managing the South China Sea?"

This time it was Li Si's turn to be speechless.

Migrant populations are not uncommon in history.

Some are for border defense, and some are for accelerating the development of a certain area.

The main reason why Ding'an Hou encountered obstacles when he proposed this matter is that the current population is too small! People are needed everywhere.

Qin Wangzheng's eyes stopped on the document. Many fish also knew that this matter was difficult to handle, so they went out of their way and said a lot in the document.

"Moving the army south, the South China Sea will be permanently fixed in China! The seven countries in the Central Plains have close customs and extremely close cultural and commercial exchanges. They were one family hundreds of years ago. Now that the world has been established, the king only needs to clean up the remaining evil and treat the people of the seven countries well. The Seven Kingdoms of the Central Plains are a family of their own.”

"However, in the land of the South China Sea, the customs are very different from those in the Central Plains. They admire the culture of the Central Plains and fear the force of the Central Plains. If it is like the Chu State, the South China Sea will not change, just like the country of China. Only by using force to suppress it and integrating it with bones and blood, you will Only with me and you in me can we stay in China forever!"

"I know that there is a shortage of people, but there are priorities. The population of the Central Plains has dropped sharply, all due to natural disasters and wars. As long as the king rests and recuperates and reduces taxes, there will be no worries about the population."

"Bashu County farmers cooperated with workshops to develop efficient farming equipment. After being used in spring plowing this year, the results are quite good, and the efficiency has doubled! As long as the equipment is promoted nationwide, farming will be worry-free!"

After Qin Wangzheng thought for a long time, he made the final decision: "Just do what the Marquis of Ding'an said!"

"Here!"

At the same time, "Bashu News" also cooperated in public opinion. It first praised the Marquis of Ding'an for pacifying Baiyue, then introduced the customs and habits of Baiyue, and then interviewed Qin soldiers who fought in the battle.

"The South China Sea is actually a treasure house?" There are abundant seafood and hundreds of kinds of fruits! 》

"A farmer made a surprising discovery: rice grown in the South China Sea yields three crops a year!" 》

"The Qin soldiers stationed in the South China Sea are unwilling to return home, all because there is a magical fruit in the South China Sea!" 》(End of this chapter)
