Since the island of Kyushu was occupied by the Chinese State, and the captain served as the governor of Kyushu, the captain was not idle when Chen Xin and the General Staff continued to blockade and raid the main state of the Japanese State, weakening its war potential.

He took the other islands of the devastated Wa Kingdom as the opposite direction, constantly tempered his political skills, cooperated with the kingdom's tough military policy, and coerced the daimyo from all over the country to move closer to the Huaxia Kingdom with a soft knife, and the effect was not bad, and the Wa Kingdom already had many local forces and secretly connected with the kingdom.

The island of Shikoku was isolated from Honshu, far from the sight and control of the shogun, the Tokugawa shogunate.

Shikoku was originally a large island with a weak sense of existence in the Wa Kingdom, and it was also barren enough to raise many samurai, so it was unable to attack the ruling power of the Wa Kingdom.

At this time, in the face of the danger of Kyushu, and in the face of the poisonous olive branch handed over by the captain, he naturally did not dare to refuse, and he had to wait for his life, and send people and food to work for the governor of Kyushu.

In fact, the increase in taxes this time is also due to the fact that a few days ago, the governor of Shangguo sent a message that he would collect more grain this year, and the price given was extremely attractive, which was full of 200 sharp knives of Shangguo.

It is the standard saber of the Huaxia Kingdom, a powerful weapon that can cut any famous sword made by the local craftsmen of the Wa Kingdom in two.

As early as when this saber appeared in the list of foreign trade of the Huaxia Kingdom, it had already shocked the entire Wa Kingdom.

Many of the craftsmen who had been making famous swords for generations for the emperor, the shogun, and the daimyo of various regions committed suicide because they were unable to create knives comparable to these standard weapons.

If you have these 200 sabers, maybe when the shogunate is overwhelmed by the suppression of Huaxia, your own daimyo will be able to share more land.

This is a major matter that concerns all the samurai retainers in the entire territory, and it must not be sloppy.

Hosokawa knew that this Koizumi in front of him had a son who was a soldier in the army of Huaxia Kingdom, and I heard that it was still that marine, which was a powerful military force that could not raise his head to the general of Zhengyi.

I heard that if you perform well, you can completely break away from the identity of the Japanese people and officially become a citizen of the kingdom, which is really a step to the sky.

What's more, this Koizumi also has a daughter, who was chosen as a maid by the governor of Kyushu, and she is very favored by the governor, which is really his hands and eyes to the sky, not to mention that he dare not offend, even the name of his family, then he must be treated with courtesy.

Hearing that Koizumi said peace, although he was unwilling in his heart, he didn't dare to show it, and put the knife into the sheath stupidly.

But in the end, he still said viciously to the village chief and the village elder, "This time, it depends on the face of Master Koizumi, bypassing you once, if you dare to commit it again, I will not spare you." ”

The peasants, who had sobered a little sober, wept bitterly and packed up the grain that they had worked for for a year, and then sent it to the warehouse of the old man's house under the fierce eyes of the samurai.

The grain from all over the country continued to gather at the residences of the daimyo in various places, and then as soon as it was handed over, it was quickly transported to the seaside, and then, soon, these grains, in the eyes of the Chinese soldiers who looked at them like fools, were sent to the grain collection ships in Huaxia, and were exchanged for boxes of long knives and armor that had long been eliminated in China.

Chen Xin's order to "tap potential" is not just as simple as affecting the Japanese state.

During the Hongwu period, the city of Zhancheng, which sent envoys to pay tribute and request canonization, was also deeply affected. In the past few years, the border of the former Ni-Nan has been very uneven, and several countries have been attacking each other, and the Ruan clan has a slight upper hand, and the surrounding countries are a little out of breath.

The Huaxia Kingdom knocked on the gates of Champa with the trade in weapons and armor, and then "helped" them to relieve the pressure on the Nguyen clan in the north.

Subsequently, it was naturally the set of "balance" principles of later arms dealers that played the regional "balance of power".

After several rounds of training, the small country of Zhancheng no longer dared to blow up the thorns, and demanded from the Huaxia country.

Chen Xin remembers that there was a famous rich coal mining area here, with a large amount of excellent quality anthracite.

This is a great treasure for the growing Huaxia Navy, and the money that the kingdom spends on buying coal every year is gone.

Therefore, when Chen Xin said that there were good coal mines here, the navy directly attacked. It didn't take much effort at all, and this mining area was returned to Huaxia in the weeping of the king of Champa.

However, because he was unwilling to criticize the local laborers too harshly and did not want to invest too many resources, the mining work was not too smooth, and the kingdom still spent a lot of money to buy good coal from the Ming Dynasty and his own country for the time being.

Now, when they heard the news of the lack of military spending, the navy panicked at once, and did not dare to continue so slowly, let alone squander the military expenditure that they thought could not be spent enough.

The original group of kind-hearted and kind-looking comrades of the Navy's external liaison department were transferred back to the headquarters, and a group of iron-blooded officers who had walked back and forth on the killing field were reassigned here.

However, in just a few days, the style of the mining area has taken a 180-degree turn.

The original state of slow-paced, warm-boiled frogs was completely gone, and countless local officials and overseers from the prisons, fields, and mines of Champa drove and intimidated countless local natives who were free of charge and only paid a little food for free, enslaving them to work.

In the deep and cold mine, a batch of mining lamps urgently obtained from Huaxia Kingdom hung on the cave wall, and the short, dark local natives began to earn their lives with difficulty.

The shaking cinders mixed with sweat turned them black, and the teeth that were clenched because of fatigue were also dyed black, and from the inside out, the indigenous laborers who could not be washed were like demons in hell.

From time to time, there are people who carry heavy lumps of coal, as if they were carrying mountains, and they groan in pain because they stumble and fall to the ground, and the mixed with the rolling coals makes this place even more eerie.

Pain, despair, thirst, hunger, the terrible sorrow of those who fell to the ground can break the heart of any ordinary person.

The navy had expected this, and they knew that even the fighting men who came down from the battlefield could not sit idly by and watch this situation, so the ruthless navy invited local officials to help manage the labor.

This group of overseers, worthy of the salary they received, faced this unbearable tragedy, did not hesitate to raise the leather whip in their hands and whipped it on the body of the fallen man with a "snap".

A muffled sound came from the dry body with no flesh, and the man who fell to the ground twitched in the painful beating, and in order not to be killed, he struggled to get up and pick up the coal frame again.

And the supervisor beside him mercilessly scolded the other miners who walked by, "Cheap bones, you all listen to me, Master Meng Huaxia appreciates it, give you a bite to eat, you must know how to be grateful, and you are not allowed to be lazy."

The king has an order, everyone is divided into teams to work, the master of Huaxia set the target, if the individual can't complete the task, kill, and if the team can't complete the task, kill the team leader.

If anyone dares to harm Lao Tzu, I will let him live rather than die first. ”

Of course, both the Wa Kingdom and the Champa were only a microcosm of the influence under Chen Xin's orders, and in addition to the larger scope, there were also a large number of countries and regions that had trade relations with the United Kingdom of China, and began a bloody and cruel "digging potential".

As for what those countries did behind closed doors, there will be no detailed records in the history books of the United Kingdom of China. 10
