Chapter 577

Zhou Tai led the land combat division to launch an attack on the Yamatai Kingdom on Yanhuang No. 1 Island, and the fire scared the natives away.

He successfully passed through the narrow and dangerous area and repelled the ambushed indigenous soldiers of the Yamatai Kingdom in one fell swoop.

Four marine regiments surrounded the Yamatai Kingdom's Kyoto City and wiped out the indigenous rural tribes scattered on the outskirts of the city one by one.

However, many natives saw that the Xiakou army was too powerful and fled into Kyoto city.

After another month of suppression, 20,000 Marines reached Kyoto City.

Looking at the low city wall and many sections surrounded by wood, Zhou Tai was speechless. This is the capital city.

It seems to be inferior to the county towns in the Central Plains area.

Of course, at this time, Kyoto City had a population of more than 200,000, and with the mobilization of Himiko, the number of soldiers suddenly increased to more than 100,000.

It means that all the people are soldiers.

But what?

The weapons and equipment held by the natives were extremely simple, with few bronze weapons and no iron weapons.

Most of the natives were holding sticks, stones, bows and arrows.

The bows and arrows that are a bit harmful to the Marines are the indigenous bows and arrows, which are all coated with poison. Once they puncture the body, they will be poisoned immediately.

"Send a soldier to persuade Him to surrender and tell Himihu that if we continue to resist to the end, our Xiakou army will attack the city.

Once the city is defeated, we will wash the city with blood. If you have the sense to open the city gate and surrender, this is their only chance to survive."

Zhou Taidao.

"As you command!"

Send orders to soldiers.

A Marine holding a white flag and a native slowly walked to the front of the city gate, which was only a hundred steps away.

"King Himihu in the city, indigenous soldiers, and indigenous people, listen up. We belong to the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals of the Central Plains Empire.

Come to recover the four islands of Yanhuang, come to liberate you indigenous people, and let you live a good life in the future. Don’t make fearless resistance.

It's useless. You have the wisdom to obediently give up resistance, open the city gate and surrender. Surrender to our heavenly soldiers and generals,

You natives don't have to worry about not having enough to eat or having enough clothes to wear. You just need to do some simple labor.

You can exchange it for food. You don’t have to worry about it all day long. You can make a living by hunting. Think about it carefully.”

The soldier said.

The soldier was about to ask the natives around him to translate when he suddenly heard a woman on the city wall speaking, still speaking in Central Plains dialect.

I was very surprised all of a sudden.

King Himihu is indeed a descendant brought to the Yanhuang Islands by Xu Fu. He had to learn to speak the Central Plains dialect since he was a child.

"People from the Central Plains below the city, you said you are not here to invade us, but to liberate the people here, then why do you want to invade our territory?

You wantonly attack our ships and kill innocent people. This place does not belong to the Central Plains. This is your bandit logic."

Himihu scolded.

The Marine Corps soldier was slightly startled!

Hahaha!

The Marine laughed loudly.

"There should be Queen Himihu on the city wall! Since you haven't forgotten to speak the Central Plains dialect, it means you have not forgotten your ancestors.

Isn’t the blood flowing on your body the blood of the Chinese people? Xu Fu deceived the first emperor of the previous dynasty and went overseas to find some elixir of immortality.

It was purely to deceive the emperor and commit the serious crime of annihilation. Xu Fu knew that the deception would not last long, so he begged for ships, sailors, and various craftsmen.

Boys and girls went to the Yanhuang Islands to escape the First Emperor's pursuit. Although Xu Fu committed a serious crime of deceiving the emperor, he could be forgiven because he discovered the Yanhuang Islands.

Now the Central Plains Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals are coming to kill, the purpose is to recover the Yanhuang Islands and completely make the natives on the Yanhuang Islands submit to the Central Plains Empire.

Queen Himihu, please do not hesitate and surrender to our Xiakou Army as soon as possible. Otherwise, you will become the target of being killed by the heavenly soldiers and generals of the Central Plains.

I’ll give you one day to think about it. If you don’t surrender at this time tomorrow, we will not accept surrender again and we will kill you without mercy.”

The soldiers led the natives back to the formation.

After hearing the words of the Marines, Queen Himihu felt in her heart the advice passed down by her ancestors from generation to generation.

They are people from the Central Plains. They followed the Great Master Xu Fu to escape from the Central Plains and took refuge in the Yanhuang Islands. They are not local aborigines.

There were originally tens of thousands of Central Plains people who followed Xu Fu to the Yan and Huang Islands, but the number of Central Plains people who actually lived on the Yan and Huang Islands was only about 2,000.

It was more than 2,000 people who brought planting technology, smelting technology, various handicrafts, shipbuilding, medical skills, etc. to the four islands of Yanhuang.

Only then did Yanhuang No. 1 Island slowly develop into a country.

Over the years, it has been invaded from time to time by the other three islands of Yan and Huang, and wars have continued. It can be said that it is not easy for Yamatai to survive!

As time slowly extended, the entire Yamatai Kingdom was also controlled by some big families, and now Himiko is actually a puppet.

Fortunately, Xu Fu established a system to confuse people's hearts, allowing all generations of Queen Himihu to exist.

Of course, after hundreds of years of development, the blood of the Central Plains people in Himihu has become increasingly thinner.

Generation after generation, they have been married to local aboriginals and have acquired aboriginal blood.

No matter how you say it, generations of Himihu still feel that they are from the Central Plains and are superior to the local indigenous people.

Himihu returned to the palace with the civil and military ministers of Yamatai Kingdom to discuss how to deal with the Xiakou Army's attack.

"Let's talk about it. Should we surrender to the Central Plains people or resist to the end? What the Central Plains people say makes sense.

As long as we surrender to the people of the Central Plains, our citizens don’t have to worry about food, clothing, or a place to live. The Central Plains is a powerful empire.

It is very developed in all aspects, there is no need to go hungry, and people no longer need to rely on hunting for a living."

Himi shouted.

From the heart of Himihu, she was willing to submit to the Central Plains Empire and knew that she could not resist the Central Plains people's attack.

Seeing the shiny swords and guns of the Marines, the Yamatai indigenous soldiers all held wooden weapons in their hands.

Not an opponent of the same level.

"My Lady Queen, are the words of the people from the Central Plains reliable?"

Taro Aso said.

The Aso family is a super big family in the Yamatai Kingdom. They are in charge of part of the Royal Guards, and their influence, power, and strength in the Yamatai Kingdom are huge.

"As far as I know, the people of the Central Plains are a very honest country. They are very kind to the people.

It is inherited from Confucianism, law, military strategism, agriculture, Zongheng and other theories. In particular, Confucianism is broad and profound, and always prides itself on benevolence and righteousness."

Himi shouted.

"Her Royal Highness, if we surrender to the Central Plains people, what kind of good treatment will our families receive? We won't be treated the same as the indigenous people!"

Taro said under the bridge.

The Hashimoto family is also a big family and has great influence, strength and power in Kyoto City.

In the city of Kyoto, he is considered a super being, not comparable to other families. He also controls part of the Royal Guards in the palace.

One of the few major families that truly controls the Yamatai Kingdom.

"The people of the Central Plains are peace-loving and will not invade other countries easily, but the people of the Central Plains also do not raise idlers.

If you want to get food, clothing, and a good living, you have to pay. There is no free lunch in the world, and everyone must be mentally prepared for this.

It is impossible for us to just sit back and wait to die after surrendering."

Himi shouted.

The queen despises these ministers in front of her. They all want to get something for nothing and only want to exploit the fruits of other people's labor.

Of course, in Yamatai, these big families do not have to work and can exploit the indigenous people here wantonly.
