From Soldier To Emperor - Chapter 424

The news that the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty was captured by Richard and Richard was willing to protect private property was spread to the Southern Song Dynasty. Song Taizong, who was on his way to Quanzhou (the state capital farthest from the Ming army), received this decree and was almost caught. Spit blood out of anger.

But no matter how Song Taizong insulted the defenders for being unfaithful and unrighteous, it couldn’t change the situation, and the bad news came to Song Taizong’s little court one after another!

The Northern Territory and most of the coastal provinces controlled by the Southern Song Dynasty successively responded to Richard’s orders, and even many state capitals directly raised the banner of Ming State and declared that they were under Richard’s rule!

Richard also refused to come. Even though his army was thousands of miles away from the city of surrender, he still accepted his surrender, and even agreed to the official appointment form submitted by the surrender state capital, which is equivalent to admitting that they are Mingguo in disguise. Neifan!

After all, those surrendered state capitals have their own systems and their own guards, which is no different from a Fan Zhen!

But now Richard can’t take the time to take care of them, so let them hang the flag first.

Of course, the banner of the Ming State is not so easy to use. All the vassal states and prefectures that join the Ming State must send troops to attack the unattached Southern Song prefectures around them!

Those feudal towns who surrendered to Mingguo not only did not refuse this order, but began to sharpen their swords at the surrounding Southern Song Dynasty prefecture with enthusiasm!

As a result, in order to avoid the military disaster, a large number of state capitals took the initiative to hang up the banner of the Ming State, and sent a surrender to Richard to become a minister!

As more and more Southern Song prefectures changed their courts, the remaining prefectures saw that the situation was not good, and they were trapped in the siege, and they also learned how to submit a surrender form to Richard.

As a result, with the exception of a few insensitive or stupid state capitals, all the land under the Southern Song Dynasty, except for Quanzhou where Song Taizong’s small imperial court was located, were all ‘determined’!

In just one month of work, the Southern Song Dynasty has changed!

The Southern Song Dynasty, which occupies half of the country, has become a warlord with only one state…

Those stubborn and stubborn loyalists could not hold on for a week under the siege of the vassal town that surrendered to Ming Kingdom…

First, the vassal coalition forces that surrendered to Ming were too large, and they were completely superior in strength.

Secondly, the Southern Song Dynasty lost popular support, and only the high-level stubbornly resisted their loyalty. The soldiers below were not willing to fight a defeated war. The result was collapsed when touched, and naturally they were quickly wiped out…

During this annexation, the vassal towns that surrendered to Mingguo began to grow stronger, and their army also got actual combat experience!

As for Richard, he was busy leading his troops to pursue Quanzhou, and kept ordering the siege of the Southern Song court from the state capitals surrounding Quanzhou.

However, the result was unexpectedly good. Before Richard’s army set off from the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, it was heard that Quanzhou was attacked by the coalition forces of three vassal towns. Song Taizong’s small court once again used the advantage of running away and fled to the wild Ryukyu Island. Lingering on…

In fact, the reason Quanzhou was breached so quickly was related to the early escape of Emperor Song Taizong’s little imperial court.

Song Taizong naturally did not swear to resist when he ran away from the Quanzhou government, but the fight was over before he waited…

Richard was a little dumbfounded in the face of the Southern Song court who had fled overseas. He had no navy available…

But it doesn’t matter, there are naval forces in the coastal towns of the Mingguo Fandom, so Richard issued an order to chase down the Southern Song court. As long as he can get the head of Song Taizong, Richard is willing to make the king!

After the Southern Song Dynasty became the ‘indigenous’ of Ryukyu Island, Richard began to prepare for the ceremony of enthronment.

The place of enthronement is in Jinling City!

Richard practices a system of multiple capitals. Qiuci is one capital, and Jinling on the eastern mainland is an important companion capital.

After ascending to the throne, Richard officially proclaimed the emperor and named Ming Gaozu. However, Richard banned the traditional way of calculating time with the Imperial Empire in the Eastern Continent, and instead used the Ming calendar as the only legal time calculation method.

In other words, even if Richard died his son and succeeded to the throne, he would use the Ming calendar to calculate time instead of becoming the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Richard did this naturally to simplify the time calendar.

Richard ascended the throne and claimed that the Empress did not take action on the Ming Dynasty vassal towns all over the south, but only merged the areas around Jinling to the separatist vassal towns in Sichuan.

Firstly, Richard did not have so many officials to settle the place, secondly, Richard did not have so many troops to fight a civil war…

Those vassal vassals are all credited. If Richard took away their rights directly, what would outsiders think?

The feudal towns are easy to overthrow but not easy to stand up. The most important thing is that Richard’s military strength is too small. Although the military strength of those feudal towns is very weak, they can’t stand their large numbers!

Therefore, Richard spent half a year to digest the fruits, and at the same time tried to appease those vassals during this half a year, gave them complete autonomy, and let those vassals put their guard down.

It is precisely because of Richard’s gentle policy that the coastal towns made efforts to build a fleet of ships, and then this fleet carried a coalition of coastal towns to land on the wild Ryukyu Island.

Then he easily defeated the Southern Song Dynasty’s small court with only four figures…

This time, Song Taizong has no place to escape!

In December 15th of the Ming calendar, Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty was defeated and killed by the rebellious army, the Southern Song Dynasty was completely destroyed, and Ryukyu was divided by the landed feudal towns…

If there is no Ryukyu Island as a reward, these feudal towns will not work so hard.

However, Ryukyu Island in this era is a wild land, full of headhunters, full of miasma, and low development. Except for the better-looking map, there is not much production.

Those headhunters who do not obey discipline are the biggest obstacle to the development of Ryukyu Island!

Although they are savagely and backward, they still occupy a geographical advantage in the jungle and mountains, and they have to pay a great price for extermination, and the gain is not worth the loss.

In January of the 16th year of the Ming Dynasty, Richard, who had just received a tax of 20,000 Qiyun coins, exchanged 16,000 Guards and began to incorporate the feudal town.

Although the Fanzhen was legally affiliated to the Ming State ~www.mtlnovel.com~, because Richard did not establish a centralized rule there, the total war system was not recognized, and Richard naturally could not establish a systematic administrative building to increase taxation.

This is also the reason why Richard must destroy the Fanzhen!

In the name of the emperor, Richard first sent people to divide and disintegrate the weak feudal vassal, Xu Yironghua and wealthy, and then threatened them with the army, letting them hand over military and political power.

Of course, Richard would not spoil his reputation, and deal with the officials of the town who took the initiative to surrender military and political power. Basically, he could obtain a duke or even a prince who could not be hereditary.

At the same time, they would not pursue the fertile fields that they had embezzled, Richard. This method is still very useful. In the face of the powerful Ming army, there are only a few who dare to work hard.

The Southern Song Dynasty was so strong that they were destroyed, let alone these vassals?
