Chapter 1699 Dealing with the Three Koreans
For mobile reading, please visit m.
Cao Shu led the Navy to stay in Jeju Island for one night, and sent an order to Sanhan early the next morning.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Three Koreans were still in slavery, and their national strength was declining, and they could not afford to organize a decent army at all.
The Cao family navy landed, but encountered sporadic resistance and the most tragic battle. Benhan only gathered more than a thousand people.
A thousand men with simple equipment and no tactics are worth mentioning in front of more than 10,000 navy led by Cao Shu.
He led the navy to advance into the inland of the Three Koreans. It didn't take long before Cao Shu occupied Benhan.
When Cao Shu occupied Benhan, the news that he received the stone tablet and the East China Sea God Iron from Jeju Island had spread all over the world.
Cao Cao, who was in Yecheng, of course, also received news.
As the scout who had stepped down to report the news, Cao Cao asked Xun Yu, who was sitting opposite him, "What does Wen Ruo think Zirong has obtained these things, what does it mean?"
"What Cao Gong asked was nothing more than the word "God's will." Xun Yu said: "The so-called "God's will" means that the young master attacked the Three Hans and Liaodong followed the will of heaven. He would definitely become the leader of the Han Dynasty and make great contributions to the revitalization of the Han family."
"Wen Ruo really thinks so?" Cao Cao asked.
"Apart from this explanation, is there any better explanation for Cao Gong?" Xun Yu asked Cao Cao.
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Wenruo, you are still half of your words now, which makes people very elusive."
"Duke Cao." Xun Yu stood up, bowed his fists and said to Cao Cao, "Now the power of the court is in the hands of Cao Gong alone, and the strong Cao family is indeed of great benefit to pacifying the world. However, when the young master gets these things, I am worried..."
"There is nothing to worry about." Before Xun Yu finished speaking, Cao Cao waved his hand to him: "Zirong is my son, I can't understand him very much. If he really had a disobedient heart, he would have done it long ago, so how could he wait until now?"
Cao Cao's words made Xun Yu feel a little more at ease.
He bowed and bowed to Cao Cao and said, "I feel relieved if I have this sentence from Cao Gong."
"There are many things recently, and you and I have not been able to talk about a game." Cao Cao asked, "Would Wen Ruo be willing to play with me?"
"Mr. Cao is very happy, so of course I will accompany you." Xun Yu replied.
At the same time, Cao Shuo, who had completely occupied Benhan, was sitting in the palace of King Benhan.
The Sanhans were still in the backward era of slavery, so the royal palace could not be as luxurious as the imperial palace in the Central Plains, and it was even less than the homes of officials in the Central Plains who were high-ranking officials.
Sitting in the palace, Cao Shu was accompanying the state to count his household registration, and Deng Zhan walked in from outside.
"Young Master." Deng Zhan bowed with his fists and greeted him.
"Has the King of Ben been found?" Cao Shuo asked.
"Reporting to the young master, I couldn't find it." Deng Zhan said: "But someone saw him fleeing to Mahan."
"I didn't expect that Bianhan would become so weak." Cao Shuo said: "Since our army landed, they have not even had a decent resistance."
"The gap between the Three Koreans and the Central Plains is more than three to five hundred years." Guo Jia said: "It was not difficult to break through the Three Koreans."
"It's a pity that their king ran away." Cao Shuo said: "Xiao Xiaobianhan has not a large population, and most of them are slaves."
"What are the plans of the young master?" Guo Jia asked.
"Transfer people from the Central Plains to teach them what the Han people said." Cao Shuo said: "Gather all those who have bullied slaves and chopped their heads, telling the slaves that from today on, they will no longer be enslaved by anyone."
"Young Master really intends to do this?" Guo Jia said: "The three Koreans are from the big country. Although they have nothing, they always think that they are a powerful country. The young master taught them too many things, just fear..."
"I understand the meaning of Fengxiao." Cao Shu said: "With the nature of the Three Koreans, they can only be slaves. But after all, we want to occupy this place, and finally merge it into the territory of the Han Dynasty, and then enslave the natives here as before. People from the Central Plains came over and taught them the language of the Han people and other less important things. When we conquer Liaodong, we will move the Liaodong people here. To migrate the Three Koreans to Liaodong, we will also move the Three Koreans to Liaodong. How can there be the Three Koreans in the past?"
"I thought the young master would treat the Izumo people like before." Guo Jia smiled slightly: "I was planning to send herbs from the Nakabara..."
"There is no need." Cao Shu said: "The Izumo people are warlike and barbaric. The most important thing is that they are diligent and willing to take care of themselves, not as lazy as the Sanhans. If I can leave people behind, they will sooner or later become a disaster for the Central Plains. However, the Sanhans are different. Apart from the courage to be self-righteous, this nation has no other advantages. Keeping them will have some use before they are completely integrated, which is much better than destroying them all."
"I understand the young master's intention." Guo Jia held a volume of roster in both hands and handed it to Cao Shu: "There are all nobles of Bianhan, and most of them were captured by us. Please give me some advice."
"Fengxiao has already counted the list, so I don't need to look at it anymore." Cao Shu stood up and ordered Deng Zhan: "Let me find someone who understands the Three Koreans, and I will personally kill the former nobleman of Benhan."
Deng Zhan retreated in response.
Cao Shuo said to Guo Jia: "Bongxiao accompanied me to go there."
Guo Jia got up and followed him and walked out of the room.
Since Sanhan is very backward, their city is also very small.
Not long after leaving the palace, Cao Shuo came to the place where the Benhans dealt with the death row prisoners.
There were two or three hundred brightly dressed men and women kneeling there.
In addition to these people, there was also a crowd of people watching.
The people watching were all dressed in rags, with traces of being tied up by ropes, both men, women, and young and old.
By occupying this place, Cao Shu made people untied their bondage, but there are still traces left. It is obvious that they lived in bondage every day.
Although there were many people watching, their faces were full of fear.
Even though those well-dressed people were tied up and kneeled on the ground, they were still trembling all over their bodies in fear.
With his hands on his hips, Cao Shuo shouted: "The people of Sanhan, those who were enslaved, do you recognize the people kneeling here?"
Of course what he said was the Han people, and someone immediately translated his words into San Korean.
A voice came out of the crowd.
The person in charge of the translator said to Cao Shu: "Young Master Qi Bian, he said these people are their masters."
"Can anyone stand up and tell me what these people have done to you before?" Cao Shuo shouted again.
After Cao Shu's words were translated, the crowd fell silent, and the ragged people looked at each other, and no one dared to stand up.
