Chapter 782 The "forced naturalization" policy of King Lu's leadership

Author: Linglinghou

Of course, there was no big meat dumpling for the natives today, but Zhu Zhixi asked someone to take more than a dozen dried sea fish for the Sosa tribe to take back.

These sea fish are made in the direction of salted fish, and are of higher practical value to the Sosa tribe.

The next day, Yang Shang was worried that the Sousa tribe would not be able to figure out the time, so after breakfast, he rushed over to bring over the 100 young men who worked in the Sousa tribe yesterday.

In fact, there were nearly 200 young and strong natives in the Sosa tribe. Even if the leader led 100 people to work, the remaining people still had certain hunting abilities, but the gains were definitely less than before.

Last night, the leader of Sousa brought the salted fish back. After roasting it, he found that it had a salty smell. He was still excited and cheered.

So, as soon as Yang Shang came today, the leader of Sousa brought a hundred young men and women to follow him impatiently.

Of course, the leader of Sosa would not order a hundred people, either a large or a small one, but Yang Shang helped him.

After coming to the immigration base, each of the young men from Sosa first drank a bowl of fish porridge. Or fish soup, because there is more fish and less food.

Even so, the hot porridge with salt and a little other ingredients still satisfies the locals' drinking, and then started working under the guidance of Yang Shang.

In this way, King Hui led an additional native labor team.

However, Zhu Zhixi and Yu Zan couldn't help but shake their heads slightly as they watched these natives work, not satisfied with their work efficiency.

In their opinion, the natives could be more diligent and faster to do things. Now it is still too casual and cannot be compared with the people of the Ming Dynasty.

After thinking about it, Zhu Zhixi came to Yang Shang and said, "Master Yang, please go to the other two tribes to hire a group of natives, and then organize them into two native labor teams."

Yang Shang had this idea, and immediately patted his chest and promised: "No problem."

With the Sousa tribe as a demonstration, it is indeed easier for Yang Shang to hire people from two other tribes to work as a laborer - just bring people over and let them understand the experience of the Sousa tribe here.

Even the leader of Sosa helped to convince.

These three parts are similar to each other, and their languages ​​and gestures are generally connected, making it much easier to communicate.

In the end, the Xiwa tribe, which had more than 200 people, was employed fifty people, and the Dongbu tribe, which had more than 300 people, was employed eighty people.

After having three labor teams, Zhu Zhixi immediately asked Yang Shang to convey something to them.

Every day, Huiwangling will assign tasks to three labor teams. Which labor team completes quickly and well can receive additional rewards.

For example, a large clay pot that can be used to cook food, a wooden utensil that can be used to hold water or liquid food, made clothes, etc.

As for iron tools, Zhu Zhixi advocated not to give it to natives for the time being.

It’s not that I am afraid that the natives would transform iron tools into weapons like the Mongols, but now that the Hui King’s Corps has no source of iron tools, and iron tools are more precious.

When Yang Shang arranged according to Zhu Zhixi's intention and tried it out for three days, the working efficiency of the three native labor teams was indeed greatly improved.

"Say Sa!"

Zhu Huiyan heard the leader of the Sousa tribe shouting "title" and carrying the young and strong tribe to work hard, and couldn't help but say to Yu Zan, who was following him: "The way Zuo Changshi drives the natives is indeed

good."

Zhu Huiyan knew that Yu Zan was actually a little dissatisfied with Zhu Zhixi, who was only 30 years old, being the left chief of the Hui Palace, and he did not like Zhu Zhixi's style of some of the children of officials and gentry.

Zhu Huiyan didn't like Zhu Zhixi's style at first, but she understood that since Princess Kunqing recommended this person to come, she must have some talent.

Now it seems that although Zhu Zhixi's character may not be so noble, his talent is really good.

Looking back, Zhu Huiyan asked again: "Have the prospecting team not harvested yet?"

Although the people are now tight to open up the fields, Zhu Huiyan still selected dozens of people and formed two prospectors with two prospectors as the core.

Because there are many mineral deposits required to build a territory, from the more common clay mines, coal mines, iron mines, and more rare copper mines, silver mines, gold mines, etc., as long as one is found, the development of Huiwangling can be accelerated immediately.

Therefore, Zhu Huiyan attaches great importance to the progress of work in this area.

Yu Zan shook his head and said, "The two prospecting teams within a radius of five miles have been seen, and there are no other discoveries except for an ordinary clay ore.

Now the prospecting team is planning to explore the area within a radius of five to ten miles, and it will take at least ten days to explore it."

Zhu Huiyan nodded.

I knew in my heart that Wang Ling could only take his construction slowly, and it was useless to be anxious.

···

The fifth day of the fifth month of the eighth year of Zhaowu.

King Lu (Jervis Bay, New South Wales).

Zhu Yihai has been here for more than a month, and the immigration base at the port has basically taken shape.

"drive!"

When the sun was far west, Zhu Yihai returned from outside on a horse and brought back hundreds of native prisoners.

If there are men and women and children, there are no native elderly people - old people are rare in native tribes.

These natives were tied with their hands on the back and tied to a long rope, so they could only line up in two long lines and walked slowly.

They were already timid, fearful, and weeping.

At this time, we came to the immigration base and saw the tall log houses built by the immigrants in the past month, as well as the construction sites where they worked hard around them. The unfamiliar and shocking scenery made them even more scared.

"Hurry up!"

Bang!

The personal soldiers walking on both sides of the native captives saw that there were natives who were walking slowly, shouted loudly and even whipped them.

Of course, their whips are not heavy, and most of the time they are just whipping the air to scare the natives.

As for the few native children, they sit on the flatbed truck carrying the captured ones, which will not drag down the speed of the team, nor will they have to suffer from the hard work of long-distance travel.

This is not because Zhu Yihai and others are kind, but because he regards these natives as property and even the source of some of the people in the future, so he naturally does not want to lose them easily.

The immigrants working on the construction site on the road couldn't help but watch this scene.

Only a few people looked at the thin natives and showed a look of sympathy, and most immigrants were pointing fingers and talking excitedly—

"The king has broken through another native tribe. Is this the tenth one?"

"It seems to be the tenth, or maybe the eleventh."

"This time, in addition to the young and strong natives, many female natives have been captured. I don't know when it will be our turn to get married."

"Hey~ You kid really want to take a native wife? You have no future. When you make money, whether you go back to the Ming Dynasty to get a wife or buy a Japanese or Korean wife, it is not as good as a native wife? You can also be ashamed to take it out."

"Do you think I really like native women? I'm dark, thin and ugly. Isn't this too long to hold it in, and I can't wait."

"You are anxious that the woman can't marry a good man, and you are anxious that the woman can't marry a good woman."

"What if he doesn't matter, maybe I can make a lot of money to get my concubine in the future!"

“···”

Many immigrant young and strong men looked at the native women who had been captured and their eyes were lit up.

This scene happened because the policy of King Lu’s ruler against the natives was completely different from that of King Hui.

After discussing with the left, right chief, personal military commander and other civil and military officials of the royal palace, Zhu Yihai now adopted a policy called "forced naturalization" against the natives.

Forced naturalization is just a nice sound, but it actually enslaves the natives to accelerate the construction of the King of Lu, and at the same time force the natives to naturalize.

More than a month ago, after landing here, Zhu Yihai decided to open up fields and log and build houses as the first priority, and then formed a prospecting team to explore the nearby mountains and forests.

Afterwards, he divided the eight hundred personal troops into two parts - 300 people stayed at the immigration base, and 500 people were led by him and his personal troops to sweep away the surrounding native tribes.

After defeating the landlord tribes, they tried their best to capture them. Except for those old and weak, the others were brought to the immigration base.

After bringing it back, the native men were incorporated into the labor force and some immigrants and personal troops supervised the hard work.

The native women first came from the personal army who had made meritorious people and immigrants selected a group of married women, while the remaining ones were organized into another labor force to supervise and do some gentle work.

If a native person tries to escape or even resist, he will be punished according to the situation, and in severe cases, he may even be hanged and displayed in public.

In short, the natives who were enslaved by high-pressure means and force.

"Well!"

Zhu Yihai simply turned over and got off the horse and handed over the horse to a servant in the royal palace to take care of it. Although he brought horses from the Ming Dynasty, there were not many, only twenty, most of which were used for reproduction, and only a few were used for it.

His mount is used to convey urgent time to the messenger to ride.

Seeing that the left and right chiefs were waiting in front of the temporary palace gate, Zhu Yihai laughed heartily and said, "Why are the two chiefs waiting here again? Didn't they say that there is no native tribe in Yingzhou?

The lonely personal army cannot be broken, why both of you worry about it?"

The Left Chief Zheng Zunqian smiled and said, "The King has read it wrong. We will congratulate the King on Triumph here."

Zhu Yihai waved his hand, "A native tribe with more than 500 people will be defeated if it attacks, so how can it be called triumph?"

He spoke modestly, but the smug smile on his lips could not be hidden.

At this time, the right chief Xue Wen frowned and asked, "How many young and strong are the king capturing the local people this time?"
