The most arrogant in history

Chapter 831 Fish of the North Sea.

Ye Kun shook his head and smiled:

"It is obviously impossible to dig a canal now. Even if it can be dug, the utilization rate is very low, and the gains do not outweigh the losses. However, I have considered building a railway from Yinshan to the city of Yanran."

Ye Kun was no longer able to dig the Grand Canal in the north.

Digging is not possible either, as there is little rain in the north and the canal lacks water replenishment.

Unless, you really start digging from Lake Baikal all the way south.

This will require approximately 10,000 excavators and other large construction machinery.

But so far, Ye Kun has not built a single excavator. Even if there are 10,000 excavators, there is not enough diesel supply.

Qin Siyuan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, can we build a railway to Beihai Camp?"

"I will thank God if we can build it to the great city of Yanran."

Ye Kun shook his head: "The current national strength and technology cannot support too much construction. Beyond the great city of Yanran, the population in the north is even smaller, so building a railway is a waste."

The great city of Yanran was later called Ulaanbaatar.

Building a railway here would be a major project on the same level as Yu the Great’s flood control project.

Even if development goes smoothly, it will take several years for such a project to be put on the agenda.

Ye Kun continued, "What I was going to talk about just now was Beihai Lake. In addition to having a quarter of the world's fresh water, Beihai Lake also has rich fishery resources. Have the soldiers of our Beihai Camp ever gone fishing in Beihai Lake?"

Qin Siyuan nodded: "In the summer, we often go fishing. There are a lot of fish over there, big and fat."

Ye Kun smiled and said, "You guys make the arrangements. I'm going to go walk around the lake and take a look."

Qin Siyuan nodded and arranged for the emperor to travel.

At nine o'clock the next morning, Ye Kun led more than 300 people to inspect Beihai Lake.

Beihai Camp is still sixty miles away from the lake.

Everyone rode on horseback, and the snow on the ground had not melted yet.

Two hours later, we arrived at the lake.

Ye Kun held the telescope and looked at the bottomless blue lake, feeling filled with emotion.

In the world before Ye Kun traveled through time, this big lake once belonged to China.

Unfortunately, it was later stolen.

Putting down the telescope, Ye Kun rode his horse along the lakeside and said to his entourage, “This land not only has fresh water and fishery resources, but also oil and natural gas underground.

Our current technology cannot exploit the oil and natural gas here, but our descendants can. If we conquer this land, it is equivalent to saving money for the descendants of China.

Therefore, the descendants of Yan and Huang should remember to never give up this land! "

Huo Qing smiled and said, "Your Majesty, according to the current situation, in another 20 to 30 years, the whole world will belong to us. No one can compete with us, the descendants of Yan and Huang, for even an inch of land!"

Ye Kun laughed out loud, feeling very proud.

Qin Siyuan pointed to the azure blue water and said, "Your Majesty, in the summer, there are many big fish in the lake, and there are many that we have never seen. Every time we come here to fish, we get thousands of kilograms."

Ye Kun nodded and said, "We can build some stone houses by the lake and station a group of soldiers there to fish. We can make our own fishing nets and boats."

Qin Siyuan shook his head: "That won't work, unless there are people stationed here all year round. In winter, no one can live here. Some remaining Huns will destroy our stone house."

Ye Kun frowned: "Didn't they say that there are no Huns nearby?"

Qin Siyuan smiled and said, "Those remaining Huns are extremely hungry and will also come to fish."

Huo Qing held up the telescope and suddenly called out in a low voice: "Your Majesty, not far ahead, there is a group of people fishing. They look like the remnants of the Xiongnu... They are carrying bows and arrows, and there are also guards."

The guards became nervous and protected Ye Kun.

"What are you afraid of? Let me see."

Ye Kun didn't care. He asked for a high-power telescope, set it up on the ground, and adjusted the direction to see.

It can be seen very clearly under a high-power telescope.

About five miles away, in a shallow bay of Beihai Lake, there were one or two hundred people fishing.

They looked like the remnants of the Huns, dressed in rags and small in stature.

There were twenty or thirty men, holding bows and arrows, looking around and patrolling.

Ye Kun saw it clearly and said with a smile: "The cavalry will surround them and capture these people alive. Don't let any of them go, and don't kill them at will."

Look at these guys, they are all pitiful people.

It looks like they can hardly survive.

Qin Siyuan nodded and smiled at Huo Qing, "General Huo, protect the emperor, and I will lead the troops to encircle him."

"Okay, I'll wait and see what General Qin will do." Huo Qing laughed.

Qin Siyuan waved his hand, and he and his men divided into three groups and quietly left.

Ye Kun stood where he was, watching the movement ahead through a telescope.

Half an hour later, Qin Siyuan and others had completed the quiet encirclement and suddenly launched an attack.

The Huns were so shocked that they lost their direction and retreated towards Ye Kun.

Huo Qing led his troops and marched forward, firing warning shots and shouting, "You won't be killed if you surrender. Get down!"

Several Xiongnu men drew their bows and arrows, wanting to fight to the death.

With a few gunshots, all the Hun archers fell to the ground.

Everyone rushed forward and surrounded hundreds of Huns.

The Huns no longer dared to resist. They dropped their weapons and knelt down in the snow.

Half of the people here are women, and some are half-grown children, who are already crying out of fear.

Huo Qing sent people to search the Xiongnu and disarm them. They brought them to Ye Kun and shouted, "This is the emperor of our Han Dynasty. Why don't you kneel down and worship him?"

The Huns could also understand Chinese, and they knelt down one by one.

"You all should stand up and talk."

Ye Kun sighed and said, "Now, within the four seas, wherever the sun shines, wherever the rivers flow, and wherever the sea water covers, it is the territory of our Great Han Empire. All the people in the world are the people of the Great Han Empire of China.

The imperial court has already issued an order that all Xiongnu people can go to live in the interior. Why do you still have to suffer in this icy and snowy place?"

An old man who could speak Chinese raised his head and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, we Xiongnu people have lived on the grassland for generations. Why are you chasing us so relentlessly and not letting us go?"

"Because when you Xiongnu were strong, you didn't let the Han people go."

Ye Kun sighed: "You kill me, I kill you, when will the revenge end? I occupied the prairie to put an end to this kind of mutual slaughter. Many of you Xiongnu people have gone to the interior, living a good life and living a peaceful and happy life.

I promise that after you go there, you will have enough food and clothing like the Han people!"

The old man shook his head and sighed, "Your Majesty, please let me die on this land and be with my ancestors."

"Your ancestors were from the Xia Dynasty, and we are of the same bloodline and bloodline."

Ye Kun continued to persuade: "I will take you to the Central Plains. That place is also the homeland of our common ancestors. What's wrong with that?"

The old man continued to shake his head: "We only know how to herd horses and sheep, not farm."

"I will give you land and let experts teach you how to farm!"

"But……"

"No buts, you only have two choices."

Huo Qing stepped forward and interrupted the old man in a stern voice: "Either you obey us and follow us. Otherwise, I will force you to immigrate, send your men to hard labor camps, and give your women here as rewards to unmarried soldiers!

If you voluntarily immigrate, your family can still be together. If you don't obey, we will have to force you!"
