Southwest of Essay Island.

In a mountain ridge near the sea, wooden camps guard the main traffic roads between the valleys.

This is the base established by the Han army in Dongpingzhou crossing the sea.

At this time, Zhang Tong, the chief general of the Han army, was discussing routinely with deputy general Murong Ren and other generals.

As the lords who will enfeoff the Heiyi Island in the future, they are extremely happy during this period of time they cross the sea.

First, the local Eagle people were vulnerable because they were all in a state of ignorance without official system, military system, and text.

When encountering the Han army coordinated with the order, it was like a child resisting the strong man.

Almost no decent resistance was encountered.

Except for some of the offshore Soyuz people with excellent water quality, there are occasional cases of swimming and sneak attacks, there is no other threat at all.

Today, the generals gathered for the next step of planning.

"Yesterday, His Majesty sent someone to send an order to protect these silver mines first and not rush to pursue the Eagle people eastward."

Zhang Tong said proudly.

"So, I have decided that the divisions now maintain their own defenses and find ways to gather the lower-level Eagle people."

"The upper-level chiefs of the Hokkien people are still not allowed to be incorporated."

Follow the rules set by Liu.

On the Hokkien Island, Zhang Tong and others can arrange the lower-level Hokkien men and women for their own use.

After all, the more coolies you are working on mines, the better.

However, the upper-level leaders of the Hokkien were not allowed to be incorporated.

Because the people of the Ekima maintained a strong clan slavery system, the leaders of various forces had a great influence on the tribes.

What Liu Yu wanted was to completely turn the Heiyi Island into a place of education in the Central Plains, not to spread the gospel to the upper nobles of the Hoiyi Kingdom.

Only the dead Emirati people and powerful people are good people.

As for the surviving Eagle people, they will be a cattle and a horse for several lifetimes.

"General, although these silver mines are very large in production, the share they have fallen into our hands is really too small."

As soon as Zhang Tong finished speaking, a general said.

As soon as these words were said, the others stared at Zhang Tong with bright eyes.

Zhang Tongyi looked at it and immediately understood what these people meant.

The human heart is not enough and the snake swallows the elephant!

He pulled his face and said solemnly.

"We just stood firm on the Hei Island and could gain what we have today, which is already a great gift from the emperor's grace."

"If His Majesty hadn't given us the chance, maybe even Lelang County would be unable to stay."

"How could it be possible to come to the Haidong Islands to treason the territory?"

When everyone heard Zhang Tong's words, they immediately lowered their heads with shame.

Seeing this, Zhang Tong did not continue to blame the general who spoke.

"You just need to know that the power of boundaries on this island was exchanged for these gold or silver mountains."

"If we cannot pay our tribute to His Majesty gold and silver, we can only rely on our strength, how can we gain a foothold here in the future?"

Although Zhang Tong's soldiers are well prepared, the supplies they need must be replenished from the sea.

If they reduce the tribute of gold and silver without authorization, there will definitely be a problem of cutting off supplies.

At that time, Zhang Tong and the others who had lost their support would probably gradually fall into the same backward as the Estomans.

Soon, Zhang Tong overwhelmed the greedy little thoughts among his generals.

He instructed everyone to ensure the output of existing gold and silver ores.

The Essians must not be destroyed by it.

"All the Hokkien people entering the mine are bound by military law. Three meals a day must be guaranteed and no one can deduct it."

"But no one is allowed to leave at will. Anyone who fled without authorization will be dealt with fear of the enemy!"

After this period of observation, Zhang Tong and the others already knew.

It is actually very easy to absorb ordinary Hokkien people.

As long as you ensure that you can fill your stomach with two meals a day, you can make those little Eagle kowtow and loyal to you with a touching look on your face.

If it was three meals a day, it would definitely make an ordinary Hokkien loyal to his life.

After all, Zhang Tong heard that the little lord in charge of the Essays usually eats rough and dry rice.

If anyone was eating rice, he drank another bowl of white rice soup.

That would be a rather infuriating "luxury" behavior.

Zhang Tong is still very confident in trying to subdue such a poor group.

When the generals took their orders and retreated, Zhang Tong was about to go on inspection as usual.

The personal soldiers outside the door suddenly came in to report.

"General, our scout, caught a messenger from the Ekima and said he wanted to see the general."

When Zhang Tongyi heard this, he didn't even raise his eyelids and waved his hand indifferently.

"Didn't you say it long ago? I'll see all the messengers of the Ekima, so I'll just kill them."

Since Zhang Tong did not want to make peace with the Essays, there was no need to negotiate everything.

In addition, the waves of Essay messengers I met before were born with a repulsive face that was "arrogant".

Zhang Tong simply called them all.

The personal soldiers heard the order but did not leave as usual.

"General, this person is not a Hokkien, but claims to be a native of Daofang County."

"Take Fangjun people?" Zhang Tongyi was puzzled.

As a former county magistrate, Zhang Tong knew that since the turmoil in the Central Plains, the situation faced by Daofang County and Lelang County has become increasingly dangerous.

At that time, many Han people fled.

Some of them fled to Liaodong, while others fled to Goguryeo.

There are even rumors that some people fled to the Hokkien Kingdom by boat.

"Yes, he claimed to be from Daofang County and asked for an important matter."

"What's his name?"

"When a few of the followers of the Emirates all added him, "Azhizhu". He said that his name was Liu Zhi."

"Liu Zhi?"

Zhang Tong had no impression of this name at all.

However, the name of "a certain master" that can be mixed among the Essians is also considered a considerable leader among the Essians.

If such a person comes to ask for a meeting, he may have some unexpected surprises.

"Take him here." Zhang Tong said in a deep voice.

Soon, the personal soldiers brought Liu Azhi over.

The two Emily people who were accompanying were blocked by the gate, and only Liu Azhi was brought in.

"Old friend Liu Zhi, I have met the Lord and Hou!"

The tall and thin Liu Azhi immediately gave him a gift when he saw Zhang Tong.

"Old friend?"

No matter how Zhang Tong thought, he didn't remember who this person was.

"The villain is from Jizhou. In order to avoid blackmail from Empress Jia, his family fled to Daifang County. He was fortunate to meet the king and the lord!" Liu Azhi said.

"In this way, you are really us Han people." Zhang Tong looked at him with great majesty.

"Yes, yes, absolutely yes." Liu Azhi nodded fiercely.

Zhang Tong had no doubts about this.

After all, the Jizhou accent in Liu Azhi's words is absolutely impossible to deceive people.

"Since you are a Han Chinese, why do you want to be a lackey for the Emirates here?" Zhang Tong asked.

"The villain was stupid. He only saw Goguryeo. Baekje was invading more and more deeply. He did not dare to stay in Daofangjun for a long time. He was afraid that there would be disasters in Liaodong in the future, so he led his tribe to build boats and rafts."

Liu Azhi also said helplessly.
