After occupying the coastal islands, in order to strengthen the rule of the mermaid clan and assimilate them into the big family of the Condor Empire as soon as possible, Ning Yuan immediately adopted a series of governance measures.

First of all, Ning Yuan reused the mermaid people of the original Blue Shark Tribe and the Black Shark Tribe and used them as the backbone to form the framework of the Marine Corps.

Secondly, for the mermaid family, Ning Yuan adopted a management plan of separating the military from the government.

The warriors of the merfolk clan are under the command of the generals of the merfolk clan such as Xie Yu, but the ordinary people of the merfolk clan are under the direct jurisdiction of the officials designated by the Condor Empire.

Xie Yu and the other mermaid warriors must strictly abide by the laws and regulations of the Condor Empire's army, and they are not allowed to leave the barracks without permission, except for designated holidays.

In addition, in order to strengthen his control over each island, Ning Yuan also built small castles on some large islands, and built teleportation arrays, and built shipyards in some places with natural harbors, and each island, no matter how big or small, would have a fleet.

At the same time, he also brought some merfolk to settle along the coast, lakes and rivers on the mainland, and immigrated some of the Terrans, elves and orcs to the islands.

In this way, even if some merfolk have bad intentions, it will be difficult for them to make any waves.

For those who survived the White Shark Clan's mermaid tribes, Ning Yuan adopted a pacifying strategy of radish and stick.

He first broke up all the women and children of the White Shark tribe as a family unit, and then sent them to different areas to settle down.

In the settlement, Ning Yuan will provide them with a house, a month's food rations, and a stable job, and the school-age children of the mermaid tribe will also get the same learning opportunities as children of other ethnic groups.

Although hatred is difficult to dissolve, time will dilute everything, even if some people hate Ning Yuan again, after they leave their clan, in order to survive, they must bury this hatred deep in their hearts.

And as time passes, this hatred will slowly fade, and when they are completely accustomed to everything here, they will be unwittingly assimilated into the multi-racial empire of the Condor Empire.

For those mermaid warriors of the White Shark Tribe, Ning Yuan was not so merciful.

After building a water prison to help them grow new arms, Ning Yuan sent them all to the mine to be reformed through labor.

For those mermaid warriors who have families outside, Ning Yuan implements the tactics of attacking the heart.

Every day, they will be explained and taught by special personnel, and if they want to be free and reunited with their families, they must identify with the Condor Empire, otherwise they will have to stay in the mine for the rest of their lives.

For those who are alone, although Ning Yuan did not give up on them completely, he did not have much hope for them.

Most of these people, most of their families and relatives died in that encirclement and suppression battle, and their hatred for Ning Yuan towards the Condor Army was even more deep-rooted, and it was difficult to influence them.

For them, Ning Yuan's original intention was to let them die of old age in the mine completely.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't give them a chance at all, after all, some people will eventually figure it out after labor reform.

Therefore, Ning Yuan would go to the mine every three months to personally visit those who "figured it out" and give them a chance to regain their lives.

Although Ning Yuan couldn't really see their hearts clearly, with the cheating artifact of attribute panels and loyalty, he didn't need to know their true thoughts.

Merfolk warriors with a loyalty of more than eighty, Ning Yuan would immediately return their freedom and allow them to join the navy of the Condor Empire.

Mermaid warriors with a loyalty of more than sixty but less than eighty, Ning Yuan will let them continue to stay in the mine for transformation.

In order to encourage them to speed up the renovation process, he will give them better care in life, not only will they live better than others, but they will also eat more abundant food.

For those merfolk warriors who couldn't see the attribute panel, or whose loyalty was less than fifty-five, Ning Yuan would execute them all on the grounds of ill intentions.

These people want to fish in troubled waters to deceive Ning Yuan, they are simply looking for death.

There is no longer any need for these diehards to continue to reform, so it is better to send them back to the West as soon as possible, so as not to cause further incidents in the future.

Because the special abilities of the merfolk in the ocean are not possessed by other races, if they betray, no one else can do anything with them except their own race.

So in order to completely control this mermaid army in his own hands, Ning Yuan finally came up with a solution after boiling countless brain cells, and this method was the marriage plus proton plan.

In ancient times, in order to win over some gate lords and consolidate their dominance, emperors would often marry some gate valve women as wives, or marry their daughters to the sons of those gate valves.

Ning Yuan didn't have any heirs now, so he simply married two beautiful mermaid women, who were from the Blue Shark Tribe and the Changshan Tribe respectively.

Marrying the woman of the Blue Shark Tribe was not only to completely tie Xie Yu to his chariot, but also to announce Xie Yu's special status in the Condor Empire to the mermaids of other tribes.

Marrying a woman from the Changshan tribe is to prevent the Blue Shark tribe from being dominant.

The Changshan tribe is the largest mermaid tribe near the Changshan Islands, and they are the nominal leaders of all the mermaid tribes in that area, as long as these two mermaid tribes can be stabilized, the mermaid tribe on the Liaodong Peninsula can be completely stabilized.

Of course, marriage is just a means, and it is not necessarily insurance, after all, a woman's status in ancient times was like a commodity, which could be discarded at any time, so Ning Yuan added another insurance on the basis of marriage, that is, the proton plan.

Although the proton here still means hostage, it is not a relatively inferior hostage guarantee that puts the other party's eldest son under house arrest in his own hands, but a more advanced means of hostage control.

After determining the officer framework of the Marine Corps, Ning Yuan immediately rewarded these officers, and the reward was some "mansions" and land near the lake and river.

The mansions that His Majesty the Emperor gave to his courtiers had to live in themselves, and these naval officers usually stayed in the barracks, so the only people who lived in those mansions were their families.

The mansions that Ning Yuan rewarded them were all near Lake Victoria and some inland lakes without exception, so the families of those naval officers naturally entered the hinterland of the Condor Empire.

Ning Yuan just used some incentives to successfully make them willingly send their families under his nose to be hostages, that is, to buy people's hearts, but also to reassure themselves, it can be said that they kill two birds with one stone.
