Chapter 287: The Southwest is settled, and the world is at peace!
A month later.

The Li Dynasty was completely destroyed.

Murong Fu destroyed the foundation of the entire Li Dynasty with absolutely cruel violence, especially the educated grassroots bureaucrats of the Li Dynasty, who were basically slaughtered.

The royal family of the Li Dynasty were all slaughtered!
Ministers and generals, all slaughtered!
Elite troops, slaughtered completely!
All the local big families were slaughtered!
Kill, kill, kill!
Kill, kill, kill!

It is exactly that "Heaven created all things to nourish man, but man has nothing to repay Heaven. The Emperor of the Great Ming said, kill, kill, kill!"
The Lancang River has been dyed red, and the entire Li Dynasty's dynastic edifice has been quickly destroyed by Murong Fu.

Murong Fu's move forced a self-contained feudal dynasty back to the primitive tribal stage.

If the land is saved and people are lost, both people and land will be lost.

People and land are saved, and people and land are saved.

This principle can also be applied in reverse. After Murong Fu applied it in reverse, he came to the conclusion that in order to occupy a place and completely incorporate it into the territory, the local people must be "lost". If the local people are lost, naturally both the people and the land will be lost.

The Indians are the best negative example. When there were only a few hundred thousand Indians left, no matter how strong the legal system was, the land was returned to the Angolans.

Therefore, while Murong Fu was killing people in large numbers in the local area, he began to prepare to migrate Han people from Fujian and other places where land was scarce to Dali and Jiaozhi, in order to carry out a major population change.

The collapse of the Li Dynasty also represented the collapse of the ruling structure of the entire Jiaozhi region.

But it doesn’t matter, because Murong Fu continued to move Dali’s original team to the Nanyue region.

These Dali noble officials quickly replaced the original local ruling group, firmly seized various interests, and cooperated with Murong Fu to suppress local resistance forces.

They were even more loyal than the Ming army. Murong Fu was the only sun in their hearts, and Duan Yanqing was just one of the stars surrounding the sun.

And being a master in South Vietnam is too easy.

They were originally masters in Dali. When Dali was forced to change its system of native officials, Murong Fu asked them to come to Nanyue to be masters. They had no choice but to obey and soon accepted the request and quickly integrated into the roles of various masters.

Although Nanyue is not as developed as Dali, it doesn’t matter. The Ming Dynasty can provide all the enjoyment that the masters need.

The masters of Dali only needed to consider how to exploit the local people and import luxury goods such as porcelain, silk, tea, and glassware from the Ming Dynasty and enjoy them. The Ming Dynasty had a lot to consider.

Duan Yanqing was crowned as the King of Nanyue under Murong Fu's enthronement, with the same status as the Prince of Daming County.

He appointed Duan Yu as the crown prince of the King of Nanyue and Gao Shengtai as the prime minister of Nanyue. Duan and Gao joined forces to support the situation of Nanyue.

It’s just that in the past, the Gao family was the powerful and the boss.

Now the situation has changed. The Duan family has Murong Fu as their backer, and Duan Yu's sisters are all Murong Fu's concubines. They can at least influence his wife. How dare Gao Shengtai not be humble?
The Duan family's in-laws were so terrifying that Gao Shengtai had no choice but to submit.

Gao Shengtai privately said with envy: "Brother Zhengchun is really amazing. All his illegitimate daughters are as beautiful as flowers, and they are all favored by Emperor Hongwu. Why don't I give birth to a group of beautiful daughters? What a pity!"

He only had one daughter, Gao Mei. Gao Mei's appearance was far inferior to Wang Yuyan and the others, and she did not catch Murong Fu's eye.

Moreover, it seems that Murong Fu has a preference for the girls of the Duan family. No one knows why. Could it be that the women of the Duan family in Dali can really make men feel great?

Gao Shengtai had no choice but to accept the fate of the Gao family becoming a vassal of the Duan family.

With the pillow talk of the Duan family girl outside and Duan Yanqing's Six Meridians Divine Sword inside, Gao Shengtai feels that he is walking on thin ice throughout his life.

However, after the establishment of the Nanyue Kingdom, Duan Yanqing tried his best to create a peaceful world for his son Duan Yu.

The main reason is that Duan Yanqing understands Duan Yu, and knows that Duan Yu's belief in Buddhism has made him foolish, and he is too soft-hearted and has done bloody things like suppressing the natives. He must take charge of everything personally in order to completely stabilize the Kingdom of Nanyue.

So, Duan Yanqing personally led the troops and used the Six Meridians Divine Sword to fight against the tribes of Nanyue, killing them so hard that blood flowed like a river, and earned the nickname "Sword Emperor of Southern Sky".

Abbreviated as Nandi.

The Southern Emperor Duan Yanqing also has the surname Duan.

The entire Li Dynasty's most essential territory in the north was annexed by the Ming Dynasty.

At this point in the southwest, the Ming Dynasty controlled Bashu, Tubo, and recovered Dali and Jiaozhi, and already had the prototype of a unified empire.

However, due to Murong Fu's brutal killing, there are still many fish that escaped the net in the local area, and they are constantly resisting the Ming Empire. But the Ming Empire is not the Qin Empire, and Murong Fu is not Qin Shihuang. He still has the card of martial arts power.

"When Qin Shi Huang conquered Nanyue, he failed once, mainly because the local terrain was complex and the miasma was very strong, making it easy for the Qin army to be ambushed. Later, Zhao Tuo pacified Nanyue, but he also proclaimed himself the King of Nanyue." Murong Fu said confidently, "However, the miasma has been restrained by Xue Muhua, and there are experts who have investigated the terrain. I am also calling on the elites of the martial arts association in the country to come and make achievements. It is costly to send out a large army to deal with small groups of guerrillas, but letting martial artists deal with them is like a cat catching a mouse, a professional match!"

The same is true.

It is difficult for the army to deal with small guerrilla groups and local indigenous people scattered in the jungle.

If too few troops are deployed, the effect may not be achieved.

Too many troops were dispatched, and they fled as soon as they heard the news, making the army's efforts in vain.

Not to mention the army of the feudal dynasty, even the superpowers of later generations were deeply troubled by the "talking tree", trapped in the quagmire of endless security wars, and were forced to withdraw.

But martial arts masters are different.

Martial arts masters have sharp perceptions, can run fast, and jump high. They cannot kill regular troops, but they are most effective at killing guerrilla fighters.

For example, at this moment in the mountains and forests, a group of unruly people are hiding in the mountains, waiting for an opportunity to resist.

"That Emperor Murong is not a human, he is a demon. He doesn't regard us as human beings at all. He kills us at will." An indigenous leader said angrily, "All the noble people I knew were killed by him. It's terrible."

The natives were silent.

They are not high-ranking officials, but they have served high-ranking officials and have a sense of national consciousness.

As soon as the Ming army arrived, all the dignitaries of the Li Dynasty, from the emperor to the local officials, were brutally killed by the Ming army. Now the Lancang River is still red.

Most of the people expressed their obedience. They changed their Chinese surnames when asked to do so and paid taxes when asked to do so.

After all, the Ming Dynasty was very powerful, and it even had the "Thunderbolt Thunder and Fire Bomb", which could launch thunder and fire in an instant. The army of the Li Dynasty was defeated in this way.

But there are still some people who have their eyes on the Li Dynasty, such as these natives, so they go into the woods, ready to wait for an opportunity to act.

In any case, it is impossible for the Ming Dynasty to always focus on Jiaozhi. They will wait for the main force of the Ming army to leave and then attack.

"Fellow villagers, I'm using your heads to gain military merit, don't be angry!" Suddenly, a voice sounded not far away.

But suddenly, a group of martial artists in strange costumes appeared from behind the trees and started killing the natives.

With the help of martial arts and poison techniques, these natives were quickly killed, and the martial artists began to process the human heads with lime, preparing to return in exchange for merit.

"Master, after this wave of exchanges, our merits will be enough, and our Five Poison Sect will be able to obtain the Bone-Dissolving Palm created by Ding Chunqiu back then." A disciple said excitedly.

"Yes!" The leader laughed, "It's a pity that these natives are getting fewer and fewer. We, the Five Poison Sect, arrived too late and didn't catch any remnants of the Li Dynasty. We can only use the heads of these fellow villagers to slowly accumulate merits!"

It turned out that these people were exactly those from the Five Poisons Sect.

The Five Poison Sect is a third-rate martial arts sect. They were called upon by the Martial Arts Association to come to South Vietnam to establish merit.

Their goal is the "Bone-Dissolving Palm". To redeem it, one needs 200 merit points, which means the heads of 200 fellow villagers.

After half a month of hunting, the Five Poison Sect finally achieved its goal.

There were many martial arts sects like the Five Poison Sect, and those unruly people in Jiaozhi who tried to resist the power of the Ming Dynasty in the deep mountains and forests were almost all killed.

The army, martial arts heroes, and the Kingdom of Nanyue are exactly the three swords that Murong Fu uses to pacify Jiaozhi!

Now it seems that these three knives are working together, and the entire southwest has become stable.

The Khitan and Jurchen in the north were fighting each other to the point of being exhausted. No one dared to offend the Ming Dynasty. The Jurchens even accepted Murong Fu's enthronement. Wanyan Aguda suddenly became Wang Jingzhong, the patriarch of the Langya Wang family in Liaodong. On the Khitan side, Xiao Yuanshan, the father of Xiao Feng, the King of the Southern Court, was still in Murong Fu's hands.

The current situation is very good, and Murong Fu is also preparing to return to the court.

After all, the first year of Hongwu was almost over.
