A group of them arrived at the governor's mansion, which was a renovated ancient building courtyard.

After Su Shu sat down, he sipped the tea on the table and asked Governor Ma Heng for his experience in governing the country.

After he gained a lot of money, he said: "The Governor-General's Mansion of East Japan can be turned into a province of Japan, and Governor Ma Heng is indispensable.

The situation I saw here in Edo Castle is no different from the situation in the mainland of the empire.

It can be seen that Governor Ma Heng is good at teaching barbarians, I will definitely say something nice in front of my father, because my father likes talents like you."

Governor Ma Heng beamed when he heard the eldest prince's promise.

If the backer behind him hadn't collapsed, he would have been wasting his time in office, and it would be too difficult to get into the center.

Ma Heng would not take the risk and contact the eldest prince.

His contact with the eldest prince cannot be kept secret, and he will inevitably be classified as the eldest prince by other forces.

After Su Shu got acquainted with Governor Ma Heng, he asked his doubts.

"Governor Ma Heng, from what I saw and heard in Edo Castle, I found that there are basically no traces of Japanese culture here.

How did Governor Ma Heng achieve this? I saw that the uncivilized indigenous people in Nanyang Province have some customs that have been passed down."

Governor Ma Heng heard the eldest prince's question. This was a good opportunity to show off his talents and make the eldest prince realize that he was definitely not a fool.

"I can't stand what those people in Nanyang are doing.

This is no different from the Han Dynasty's preferential treatment of the Huns and the Tang Dynasty's preferential treatment of the northern nomads.

Once the local situation becomes unstable, these indigenous people will inevitably rebel.

Chinese civilization is extremely tolerant, but it must also use the correct method.

Where is Xianbei? Where is Khitan?

When our ancestors integrated these ethnic groups, they first had to destroy their culture and history.

Use our words to replace the words of these people, and use our history to cover the history of these people.

And it can absorb all the excellent cultures of these ethnic groups, so that they can find a sense of familiarity and identity in their cultural history.

This is my guideline for doing things in Japan.

Only fully Han Chinese-like Japanese can stay here.

The Japanese province does not allow the circulation of Japanese characters and the speaking of Japanese language.

The Japanese who violated this ban emigrated out of Japan as a family unit.

We immigrated to other overseas provinces and vassal states of the empire. At the peak, one million people immigrated a year.

After the Sinicization of the Eastern Japanese Governor's Office reached the standard, I went to the imperial court to request the establishment of the Eastern Japanese Province.

I can guarantee that no one in Japan’s current province is a Japanese.

The best way to eliminate an ethnic group is to eliminate their writing and history.

It only takes a few generations for the Japanese to cease to exist."

After Su Shu listened to Governor Ma Heng's explanation, he was stunned.

Governor Ma Heng was too cruel. He destroyed the county magistrate and destroyed the family.

It’s amazing what a powerful governor can accomplish if he acts ruthlessly.

Governor Ma Heng's methods were efficient and concise, and the obedient Japanese people completed their Chineseization, and they were no longer Japanese people.

The Japanese who did not submit to Chinese culture were directly allowed to immigrate.

Even if these Japanese join a group locally, they are unable to continue to maintain the inheritance of a civilization.

No wonder Governor Ma Heng can boast that there is not a single Japanese in Japan.

Su Shu understood that Governor Ma Heng was fooling around, and his efforts and rewards were not equal at all.

He couldn't understand why his father allowed Governor Ma Heng to do so much in the Japanese province.

Without the secret permission of Emperor Father of the Japanese province, Governor Ma Heng would have been impeached by the imperial censor long ago.

Su Shu couldn't understand why his father wanted to eliminate the Japanese and let this ethnic group completely disappear, but his father must have his reasons.

He had no control over civil servants like Governor Ma Heng.

After Su Shu exchanged a few pleasantries, he left the mansion. He only promised to give Governor Ma Heng a few words of good words in front of his father, but did not promise anything else.

He and Staff Officer Lu Yuanqi returned to the warship, and he saw many people coming to visit the navy outside the military port.

These people shouted words of blessing.

Even Su and Shu couldn't tell which ones were Han Chinese who immigrated from the interior and which ones were naturalized Han people.

Governor Ma Heng's methods are harsher, but they are indeed effective.

Su Shu had heard that at its peak, one million immigrants were immigrated a year, so he knew that Governor Ma Heng's immigration methods would never be too gentle.

Japanese who do not resist can still enjoy basic immigration treatment.

The Japanese who dared to resist were considered criminals and would be forced to immigrate and work as hard labor.

The railways in the empire were built very quickly. In addition to the contribution of engineering machinery, there was also the contribution of these criminals.

Su Shu remembered that he had read information that during the construction of the railway from Chengdu to Kunming, more than a hundred people died for every kilometer.

Looking at the current prosperity of Edo, he still recognized the Chinese system vigorously promoted by his father.

Without this system as a benchmark, even if they took over the Japanese province, the local people would not cooperate with the rule.

The cost for the imperial court to impose its rule is too high, and it will eventually escape from the imperial court's control.

The previous dynasty captured Jiaozhi when the Ming Dynasty was founded, but it was quickly driven out by local forces because it was inconvenient to rule.

Su Shu believed that his father also learned from the lessons of the previous dynasty before arranging this system.

He quickly boarded the battleship Tarzan and returned to his house.

Su Shu took out a pen and wrote down what he was thinking on paper.

The fleet had just set off, and he had gained a lot just by arriving in the Japanese province.

Even Su and Shu could not imagine how much progress he would make if the fleet circled the earth and returned to domestic knowledge.

Early the next morning, the fleet completed supplies at Edo Castle.

The huge fleet continues to sail eastward, and they will travel across the vast Pacific Ocean.

The fleet officially left the territory of the Dahua Empire, and the fleet's ocean-going training was carried out simultaneously.
