Chapter 361 Feudal Meaning

Seize overseas, once and for all!

Lu Diaoyang looked at Shi Yiwen with shock and couldn't speak, then asked.

"You, what do you mean? I, I, have a ban on the Ming Dynasty."

"What's the use of a ban on the throne?"

Shi Yiwen looked at Lu Diaoyang and asked back.

"Gei Master, even if there is a ban on the vassal state, wouldn't King Heng be released? Now when they are in Shenxing, they will take out a King Heng, and in the future, there may be someone who will take out other sects!"

"What do you think you should do?"

"The solution is very simple, which is to regain the feudal ways of Zhou officials, and to enfeoff the various vassals overseas and place them in Nanyang. In this way, the Ming royal family could be empty, so the court naturally would not need to pay their descendants and save a lot of expenses. As for the royal family, they could also pass on their families overseas to ensure that they had no food and clothing...

Lu Diaoyang looked at Shi Yiwen in shock. He listened to his suggestions and did not speak for a long time. He finally said something.

"Isn't the overseas territory of the local king? We can't send troops to capture cities and plunder land for the vassal kings!"

"There is no need to send troops. Most of the lands in the South Ocean have their own national conditions. The places where the Tu Wang actually manages are actually a hundred miles around the capital. The vast majority of the local people don't know what the country is. Otherwise, there wouldn't be Westerners building cities and ports in various parts of the South Ocean. The master of the Pavilion did not know anything. This time I went to Nanyang, I would have no effort to open a hundred miles of borders for my Ming Dynasty from the hands of the Tu Wang."

Listening to Shi Yiwen's experience in Nanyang, Lu Diaoyang felt that the words and words he spit out of his mouth made people feel a little unbelievable. Unheard of place names floated by his ears, making him not know what to do for a moment...

"…Chancheng is at least the Mekong River estuary south, nominally belongs to the Khmer, but in fact it is a fertile land of unlimited land. If you build a city here, you can place a vassal king's mansion, and then to the Malay Peninsula, there is Johor at the southern end of the peninsula, and most of its land is occupied by Aceh. However, most of the land occupied by Aceh is only remotely bound, and you can build a royal city in the north. To the east, to the north of Borneo, the local rule of Sulu is also a place where the rule is not ruled. You can build a royal city while sending envoys to rent forever, and then along the coast to the south, you can build a royal city between Sanfa and Brunei Tuguo. Although there are several lands in Borneo, four to five royal cities can be established along the islands, and there are countless islands on the ocean to the east. Those islands are of different sizes, which can be used to resettle the royal families of the Ming Dynasty..."

At some point, Shi Yiwen and Lu Diaoyang's conversation had shifted from being enfeoffed to being immigrated.

"And for the Ming Dynasty, there is another advantage in the overseas enthronement of the vassal state, which is that it can accommodate a large number of refugees. Now the population of our Ming Dynasty is increasing, and land annexation is becoming more and more intense. Every year in disaster year, there will be at least hundreds of thousands and millions of people becoming landless refugees. These refugees gather and will inevitably incite trouble in it. If there are refugees in chaos, they may become bandits. At that time, even if the imperial court attacks, it will consume a lot of money and food. Instead of doing so, it is better to encourage the vassal state to attract refugees to the overseas enthronement and grant land there. In this way, the vassal states have obtained population and refugees have obtained land. As for the Ming Dynasty, internal troubles will be reduced."

Lu Diaoyang, who was pondering silently, weighed this matter in his heart while looking at Shi Yiwen and asked.

"Is this so easy? Can the Tu Chiefs really let the land be cut off without a single soldier?"

"George, there are many countries in the South China Sea, and there are constant discussions between them, such as Myanmar's attack on Siam, Siam's attack on Khmer, Annan's attack on Champa, and the big country bullies small countries, and the small country just struggles to survive. With the prestige of our Ming Dynasty in the South China Sea, we only need to build a city to allow the small country to receive the protection of our Ming Dynasty. Just like Siam now, Ayutthaya was captured by the Burmese army more than ten years ago, and Siam became a vassal state in Burma. The local kings were eager to get rid of Myanmar's rule and be independent.

We can give certain support in exchange for Siam to cede the territory of the south. As for Guangnan, Guangnan has repeatedly invaded Chameng, and we can also make profits from it, so that Chameng will cede the land, so that Guangnan will not pose a threat to Chameng again. Of course, after the princes gain a foothold in the future, they will attack the unjust officials, so that things will happen in the future. After all, the so-called country in Nanyang is actually just a city, and it is naturally easy to conquer the palace and guard..."

"The Guard..."

He listened to Shi Yiwen's suggestion to Lu Diaoyang and said in shock.

"Can you still have to return the guards to the vassal kings?"

"Of course I have to pay it back!"

Shi Yiwen answered immediately.

"If the guards are not returned to the kings, what will they use to establish a country in the barbarians of the South China Sea? Especially the natives respect the power but do not have virtue. If there is no intimidation from the three guards of the vassal kings, how could they respect the power of the vassal kings?"

"Returning the guards to the palace, even if the court agrees, the palace will not agree. After all, it has been difficult for so many years to implement the ban on the ban. As soon as you open your mouth, you will return the guards to the palace and lift the ban on the ban. Now that there is the rebellion of King Heng again, how can the palace agree?"

Shaking his head, Lu Tiyang thought for a while, and then said.

"You can set up prefectures and counties, and the court will directly send troops. As for the vassal kings, some vassal bans can be abolished, such as asking him to collect local money, grain and miscellaneous taxes, the court naturally does not have to pay for money, grain and grain, which can solve the problem!"

"Set a prefecture or county?"

Immediately, Shi Yiwen shook his head and said:

"As the saying goes, it is beyond reach. Just like when the expedition of Annan, it was Bunan who occupied the area with troops, but later rule was a troublesome. If it was not done well, it was another Annan Rebellion. Moreover, I am afraid that few people would be willing to go there to be officials. Even if someone went there, the sky was high and the emperor was far away, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not impose excessive taxes, do evil and cause trouble, and the court would have to deal with it. Just like the officials sent to Annan back then, they only knew how to impose excessive taxes and finally forced the locals to oppose the locals. Even if the court chose the best, the court would have so many good officials to be assigned."

After saying that, Shi Yiwen shook his head again and analyzed carefully.
