After so many days of fighting, the army was enraged by the repeated resistance.
If this anger isn't vented, it could be very dangerous. Because if it's not directed at the enemy, it will fall on our own people.
Between the two, killing the enemy naturally is more reliable.
"Yes, is everything resolved?"
Sun Jian nodded slightly, immediately issued the Order to Kill the Hu, and then said solemnly, " The Yamata Nation is stubborn and resistant, so let's thoroughly wipe them out."
Aside from keeping a small group to operate the mines, everyone else should be dealt with to avoid future problems.
If you don't pull the weeds out by the roots, they'll grow back in the spring!
Since the country has been destroyed, it must be done thoroughly to eliminate any future troubles.
Given time, the prisoners of war who were taken to the mines would also be worn down and die in the mines, and eventually the Yamata Nation could be completely wiped out.
Once and for all!
Grunt!
Muren, kneeling on the ground, narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth, saying, "My lord, our Yamata Nation is willing to surrender to the Great Liang. Please, do not start a massacre!"
He wanted to survive, hoping that one day he could make a comeback.
If Sun Jian were to unleash a massacre, even if he survived, he would have no chance to rise again.
"Hehe!"
Sun Jian glanced at him, his expression meaningful, and said, "Don't worry, our Great Liang follows His Majesty's strategy of Win People Over with Virtue. We have always valued peace and will not kill people indiscriminately."
If it weren't for your plot to seize my Great Liang's divine artifact, I wouldn't have ended up like this. So it's all your fault, Muren, for overestimating your own abilities!
Our Emperor is also reluctant to kill too many people. As long as your people no longer pose a threat and no longer hate the Great Liang, we will never indiscriminately kill innocent people!
We are a civilized nation, and we would never kill people indiscriminately.
The reason you killed him is entirely your own fault; you brought trouble upon yourself.
"This..."
Muren's expression changed drastically; his face contorted in agony, and he was consumed by deep pain. This was utterly devastating.
After hearing this, the people of Yamata Nation will probably hate themselves for being the culprit.
Sure enough, everyone around him was looking at him with hatred and resentment, and many of them even rushed towards him.
" Muren, you'll die a horrible death!"
"It's all your fault, you fool! Your greed has ruined the entire Yamata Nation. You will be a sinner against the Yamata Nation."
" Muren, you son of a bitch, I'll make sure you suffer even if I die!"
The venom in those eyes caused Muren to collapse to the ground, his eyes dimming completely.
I'm doing this for the development and strength of the Yamata Nation Yamata Nation!
"Hmph, you brought it on yourself!"
Sun Jian had no time to pay them any attention. With a wave of his hand, he ordered the complete purge of the entire Yamata Nation, slaughtering all those who were uncooperative or hostile, thus achieving complete conquest.
If you have someone to blame, blame your Emperor Muren!
If it weren't for his overestimation of his abilities, His Majesty would probably be eating roasted goat in the Zhennan Dynasty right now, instead of being here.
Great Liang is going to establish a base here, then no scum can be tolerated.
"Kill!"
At a single command, hundreds of thousands of soldiers immediately sprang into action, slaughtering everyone who remained standing. Those still standing, refusing to kneel, were clearly defiant; this was a threat.
Threats must be eliminated!
Under the strong intervention of Sun Jian, Ran Min, and others, hundreds of thousands of troops began to clear out the entire Iai Island, and then, radiating outwards from there.
Meanwhile, Sun Jian entered the palace and opened the palace's treasury.
Looking at the mountains of treasure inside, he couldn't help but sneer, muttering, "Truly a country filled with evil. These treasures must be covered in the blood of innocent people!"
Many of these items were still stained with blood, clearly looted by the Muren. Some were stolen from other forces in the Yamata Nation, and some were probably taken from the Yamata Nation at sea.
There are even many items from the Min River area inside, which should date back to the Great Ning Dynasty.
Judging from the wealth piled up here, it is probably no less than 20 million strings of cash, and there are also a large number of rare items from various places. It is absolutely priceless, and the total value is probably no less than 40 million strings of cash.
Adding in the spoils from other families, this haul is probably going to be phenomenal.
"Hey, we found something good!" At this moment, the guard's eyes lit up, and he handed over a scroll.
"Nice one?"
Sun Jian opened it and his eyes lit up immediately. He exclaimed excitedly, "Hahaha, this is the map of the Yamata Nation's silver mine that His Majesty has been looking for! We obtained it without any effort at all!"
No wonder the Yamata Nation is so rich. Among its more than 4,000 islands, it has more than ten silver mines, including two super-large silver mines, which are open-pit mines.
That's really impressive; if you add it all up, the storage capacity inside would be phenomenal.
There are also two gold mines; although the reserves aren't large, that still adds up to money.
Silver and gold are internationally accepted currencies; they're very stable and represent solid wealth.
"Bastards! They're already so rich, yet they still want to plunder the sea! They're utterly despicable!" one of the guards couldn't help but exclaim indignantly.
This is practically a gold mine, yet the Yamata Nation is still not satisfied; they're practically gluttons.
Sun Jian shook his head. Having gold and silver alone is not enough; it still requires the support of national strength. After all, these things need to be spent to be considered wealth.
Staying in the Yamata Nation only provides resources; frankly, the Yamata Nation lacks a solid foundation.
Moreover, mining is not so easy. Even open-pit silver mines require a large number of people to mine. It's not as fast as robbery.
He laughed and said, "Someone, immediately send someone to investigate and report back to His Majesty. We need technical support!"
After so many days, we finally have some good news to send back. As for the rest of the development, Your Majesty, please make the arrangements.
The Imperial Palace of Great Liang!
After the Yamata Nation was conquered, Lin Yi received immediate feedback from the system, and a golden light rose from the system.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully defeating the Yamata Nation with your martial prowess, fulfilling your inner obsession, and obtaining the national hero Qi Jiguang and the Qi Family Army 300,000 men."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully defeating the enemy with your martial prowess and killing the minister of the Yamata Nation, Jingbian Yilang. You have gained the renowned minister Hai Rui and three thousand talented administrators."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for conquering 4,532 islands with your martial prowess, embarking on the path to maritime dominance, and obtaining one Super Nautical Chart, ten Divine Dragon Transport Vehicle, and one super shipyard."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for subduing others with martial prowess and cleansing the source of evil in the Yamata Nation. You have been awarded the title of Guardian of Peace and are rewarded with one of the Nine Tripod Cauldrons, the Yangzhou Tripod Cauldron!"
"..."
The moment Lin Yi saw the reward appear, his eyes lit up; he had actually encountered a formidable opponent.
Qi Jiguang!
This man spent his life fighting against Japanese pirates, but unexpectedly, he was pulled out of the country, and what's more, his Qi Family Army was also sent over.
