Reborn as Liu Hong: Building a Divine Great Han Empire

Emperor Ling of Han was the last powerful emperor of the Han Dynasty, a figure who could have altered the course of history, yet he became the root cause of the empire's collapse.

Fate ha...

Chapter 768 If you're going to do something, do it like Ban Chao

Before long, Ma Han's guide arrived before Chu You with the information he had gathered.

"Your Excellency, according to these natives, this place belongs to Yamatai. Their leader is a man named Shejinlu. They are just a group of fishermen and do not know the location of the Dog Slave Kingdom."

They said the tribe that this fishing village belongs to is currently at war with a neighboring tribe. Perhaps we could ask their leader.

"Shejinlu? What kind of lousy name is that?"

Chu You was slightly taken aback and couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.

Afterwards, Chu You gathered the soldiers of the escort delegation, the head of the Royal Trading Company, and the accompanying noble families together to discuss the next steps.

After some discussion, everyone unanimously decided to abandon all those countries that were slave-owning, slave-trading, or black-toothed, and to fight wherever they went.

After all, according to the newly promulgated navigation regulations of the imperial court, wherever they saw was their territory, so they were too lazy to wander around.

Subsequently, all four thousand people on the twenty ships disembarked and went ashore. As for the fishermen, they were all captured and enslaved, and began to help them move goods and build camps.

Just as the guide Mahan had said, those fishermen were extremely obedient to the strong; they would do whatever they were told without the slightest resistance.

That night, after taking stock, it was found that the people who came to the archipelago this time, apart from the merchants and heads of various families, included 300 Han soldiers in the escort mission, plus sailors and guards, totaling 3,700 combat-ready men.

Of course, the engineering students in charge of exploration were also capable of killing with their swords, but they were too important to be lost, so they were excluded from the combat sequence.

In addition to some goods, these people also carried a large number of bows and arrows and swords on this voyage. Their idea was to rob if they could win, and trade if they couldn't.

"Then let's go tomorrow and see the fighting strength of this country's soldiers!"

After some discussion, Chu You, with a gleam in his eyes, made his final decision.

As an envoy of the Han Dynasty, one should act like Ban Chao, who slaughtered the country and its people and expanded the territory of the Han Dynasty. How wonderful that would be!

"Is your esteemed envoy present?"

Inside the tent, Chu You had just lain down when Ma Han's guide came over.

Chu You frowned: "What is it?"

"Your Excellency, the local people have offered you two young women, and they hope you will accept them!"

As they were talking, the guide led two women in.

Chu You looked up and saw that the two women were wearing clothes that looked like bed sheets, and their pale faces were smeared with blood-red blush.

"What disgusting thing is this? Get it away right now!"

The two women's makeup was so disgusting that Chu You quickly waved his hand, signaling the guide to take them away.

The guide paused for a moment, then hesitated and said, "Your Excellency, if you do not accept them, according to these natives, you will have angered them, and they will be killed and drowned at sea as soon as they return."

"Huh? There's such a rule?"

Chu You was slightly taken aback, then glanced at the guide and said, "Fine, they're yours!"

The guide's eyes lit up upon hearing this: "Thank you for your generous gift, Your Excellency!"

With that, the guide led the two women out of the tent.

Early the next morning, Chu You left two hundred men to guard the camp and the boats, and led the remaining three thousand eight hundred men away from the fishing village, escorting the fishermen, and marched in a mighty force towards the tribe where Shejinlu was located.

On the march, Chu You was quite surprised to see the fishermen leading the way. He hadn't expected that these natives would shamelessly lead outsiders like himself to attack their own people.

After walking for about two hours, passing through a dense forest, Chu You and the others arrived at a hillside.

Five miles down the hillside, there was a tribe of about two thousand people, which was the tribe that the fishermen called Shejinlu.

Looking at the exposed tribe and the low wooden houses, Chu You and the others couldn't help but show disdain.

Subsequently, Chu You ordered the entire army to split into four groups and surround the tribe from four directions.

Before long, Chu You, who was in charge of attacking from the south, led his men to a thicket about 300 meters away from the tribe.

Seeing the tattered weapons the tribal soldiers were carrying, Chu You didn't bother with any tactics or strategies and simply led his men to charge forward.

The Han soldiers, clad in iron armor, charged at the forefront, with Chu You and the others following closely behind.

"Brothers, follow me and kill them! These dwarfs are like children; one of us can take on a hundred of them!"

As he charged forward, Chu You also kept encouraging the sailors and guards behind him.

However, to Chu You's surprise, these sailors and guards were all desperate criminals recruited by aristocratic families and merchants at great expense. They were extremely fierce, each one charging forward with ferocity.

When the soldiers patrolling the tribe saw the enemy approaching, they shouted loudly and drew their wooden bows, firing arrows at the Han soldiers charging in front.

Unfortunately, their wooden bows and bone arrows could not pierce even the leather armor worn by the sailors, let alone the iron armor of the Han army.

"Kill!"

Meanwhile, teams responsible for the other directions also stormed into the tribe.

Seeing that their bows and arrows had no effect whatsoever, the soldiers in the tribe immediately began to scatter and flee.

The reason why there is bloodline suppression among animals is due to the fear of facing a powerful opponent.
