Chapter 1060 Admonition
[Recite the URL three times silently. Do you remember it? If not, I will ask again in the next chapter. It would be best if you could share it on Facebook for me]
"Goryeo is currently following the example of Daesong from top to bottom. Even the royal edicts I sent to Goryeo officials are written in Daesong's name. Your Highness, please rest assured." The Goryeo king glanced at the other kings and spoke first.
Zhao Xu looked at the humble Goryeo king with a satisfied look, "That's great."
The Goryeo king's diligence was within Zhao Xu's expectations.
Goryeo is only five or six hundred miles away from Daesong's imperial capital Yancheng, and the navy's warships can reach Goryeo's royal city in two or three hours.
If he, the Goryeo king, does anything that displeases Daesong, his reign will be over.
Daesong will not allow unstable factors to appear in a place so close to the imperial city.
"Your Highness, the implementation of Dasong characters in the north of our Yuzen Kingdom is going smoothly, but in the south, the position of the southern vassal states has encountered some resistance and caused some riots. However, the little king is calming the chaos and will never delay your orders." Hojo Kawakage said with a guilty look on his face.
In this regard, he is indeed not as good as Goryeo. His Goryeo is very good at changing its direction from top to bottom.
"We are facing a similar situation." Ono Town and the other two said.
Zhao Xu frowned when he heard this.
He never expected that the plan of unifying characters and industrial standards in the East would go smoothly.
These kings and their forces appointed by him were loyal to him, but there were always people in their country who sang against them and even had hostility towards Dasong.
It was just because they knew that Dasong was very powerful that they chose to obey on the surface.
When they encountered things such as the implementation of characters and industrial standards that they were unwilling to do, they began to show their true colors.
"If you don't make a decision when you should, you will suffer the consequences. This has been the case since ancient times." Looking at the four people, Zhao Xu reminded them with a serious tone.
Hojo Kawakage and the other four are currently his subjects.
They did not do their job well, so they would naturally be reprimanded.
"This time when we return to Japan, we will order the northern soldiers to go south. Those who violate the will of Dasong will be killed without mercy." Hojo Kawakage said hurriedly.
Although the King of Yan only raised his voice slightly, he was scared and sweated.
During this period of time, he also got to know the King of Yan.
It really fulfilled the saying of Dasong tradition: those who obey will prosper, and those who disobey will perish.
They were loyal to Dasong, and the King of Yan was naturally friendly, but if they had any other intentions, they would probably die.
He admitted that they had some luck in dealing with the opposition of the South to the implementation of Dasong's writing and industrial standards.
They were ambiguous about the voices of opposition in the South, thinking that it was not worth going to war for this matter.
But obviously, the King of Yan did not think so.
"So do we." Ono Town and others followed suit, looking terrified.
"I hope you won't disappoint me again." Zhao Xu said lightly.
"I absolutely wouldn't dare." Hojo Kawakage wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Now he regretted not taking decisive measures to deal with this matter.
This time, the King of Yan led them, and he had thoroughly seen the true strength of Dasong, so how could he dare to go against the King of Yan's wishes.
In the future, even if the King of Yan said something casually, they would carry it out to the end.
After Goryeo and Japan, Luzon and the five southeastern countries also introduced the situation of promoting writing to Zhao Xu one after another.
Among them, Luzon, Funan, and Nanzhang Kingdom promoted it very smoothly, while Jiaozhi and Pyu Man encountered a similar situation as Japan.
The north of Jiaozhi is easy to say, because they are all people from the Central Plains who migrated there in history, and the south is the sphere of influence of the Jing tribe of Jiaozhi, who have a low recognition of Dasong and are only subdued by Dasong at the moment.
As for Pyu Man, it is naturally the Burmese tribe, a tribe that was ruled by Dasong.
In response to these situations, Zhao Xu naturally ordered Jiaozhi and Piaoman to use iron-blooded means like Dongying.
But he also understood these situations.
When Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, he unified the wheel gauge and the writing system, but he was still fiercely opposed by the nobles of the six kingdoms, causing constant turmoil.
It is conceivable how difficult it is for him to make the wheel gauge and writing system the same throughout the East.
However, he cannot not promote it just because it is difficult. Even if the completion rate cannot reach 100%, it is good to achieve 80% or 90%.
Moreover, he is still very young and has plenty of time to do this.
After all, when he is old, the world will basically enter the end of the modern era.
It will be too late to do these things at that time.
After saying this, Zhao Xu ordered everyone to go back and wait for the abdication ceremony.
In two days, he will ascend the throne and officially become the emperor.
…
Calcutta.
When Zhao Xu made the final preparations for the abdication ceremony.
The high-ranking officers of the Western Alliance, including the Governor of India Bolt, the British Army General Wesley, the Frankish Army General Goller, and the Navy General Malfoy, all appeared in the port destroyed by the Dasong fleet.
Because today is a very important day.
The reinforcements they have been waiting for day and night have finally arrived.
At this moment, the warships on the sea outside the port looked like a wall pressing towards the port from afar. There were more than a hundred warships that they could observe, not to mention that there were more warships blocked by other warships.
"The Parliament and Her Majesty the Queen finally took the opponent Dasong seriously." Malfoy looked at the huge fleet and was excited.
The humiliation of defeat lingered in his heart until now.
Now, he finally has the opportunity to take revenge on Dasong.
This time, he wants revenge on the Dasong Navy!
"It should have been done long ago, but it's a pity that we underestimated this opponent the first time, otherwise we wouldn't have lost Malacca so easily." Wesley clenched his fists, his hatred lingering.
Bolt also breathed a sigh of relief, he said: "At least we have saved Tianzhu, and with Tianzhu as a frontline fortress, we can retake the five southeastern countries, Australia, Luzon, and Java."
Everyone nodded, and the decadent mood caused by the defeat in Malacca was swept away.
What remained was a strong desire for revenge.
After waiting for half an hour, the fleet arrived at the port, and the warships docked at the port.
Because there were too many warships and not enough berths, many warships could only stay at sea.
Officers and soldiers could only come to the shore in small boats.
This time the reinforcements were also composed of soldiers from many countries.
The officers and soldiers of various countries in Tianzhu immediately recognized the people sent by their own countries and hurried forward to greet them.
After meeting, some familiar officers and soldiers immediately hugged each other and cried, talking about their companions who died in the war.
This made the officers and soldiers of the second batch of reinforcements furious, and they kept cursing Dasong and vowed to take back the blood debt from Dasong’s army in the next war. Some soldiers even shouted slogans, which triggered the supporting officers and generals to shout in unison.
"Destroy Dasong and avenge the dead soldiers!"
"Destroy Dasong and avenge the dead soldiers!"
"..."
The shouts continued for a long time.
