Chapter 391

Liaodong Jinghaifu Jeju Island.

It has been turned into a migrant camp, with 50,000 immigrants gathered here.

Every time the number of immigrants reached 50,000, the imperial court would dispatch a fleet to transport the immigrants to Southeast Asia.

Magistrate Ma Kaiheng inspected the immigrant camp.

He is responsible for immigrating many indigenous people from Whale Sea to various parts of the country.

At the same time, we must prepare to accept immigrants mainly from Shanxi, Fujian, and Guangxi.

Ma Kaiheng's master Zhao Zhong took the information and reported to Ma Kaiheng the situation in the immigration camp.

"Master Ma, all counties in Jinghai Prefecture have sent enough indicators.

Fifty thousand immigrants gathered on Jeju Island, waiting for the imperial court to send ships to pick them up."

Ma Kaiheng solemnly explained: "Choose one thousand more people.

From Jeju Island to Nanyang, it is nearly ten thousand miles away, and immigrants will inevitably have headaches and fever.

Once someone dies, there won't be enough."

Zhao Zhong lowered his waist and said, "Master Ma has already ordered us to have a thousand more immigrants in each fleet."

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ma Kaiheng's satisfied look.

As a person who has lost his country, it is his honor to hold a thick thigh.

Zhao Zhong looked at these immigrants. Among them were two groups of nobles who were previously extremely valuable.

These people are aloof and look down on the children from poor families like them.

Now he is being suppressed by the soldiers of the Heavenly Kingdom and is about to be exiled to a deserted island.

Meeting them will be an unpredictable fate.

A person like him who changes careers quickly has now reached a high position.

There are many smart people who realized something was wrong and took the initiative to go to the wealthy cities of Dahua.

For those who immigrated on their own initiative, the Dahua court did not pursue them.

Most of the two classes of nobles who are now being escorted by soldiers to immigrate were on the opposite side of Dahua at that time.

After these people were tried, most of their property was confiscated and their families were exiled.

Most of the immigrant civilians are people from mountainous areas.

They never had enough to eat. I heard that when they immigrated to Nanyang, they would be given land.

These people were extremely excited and took the initiative to sign up to immigrate to Nanyang, with basically no resistance.

This is why immigration camps with tens of thousands of immigrants only need a few hundred soldiers to stand guard.

A military attache wearing a green robe came over.

Wang Kai saw Magistrate Ma Kaiheng.

He said with some complaints: "Prefect Ma, what is the court doing?

During this period of time, we did nothing else but focused on immigration work.

Our people here want to immigrate to all parts of the country.

The Northeast is very close, and it is normal to immigrate there.

After all, the Northeast region, which previously belonged to the Jurchenyan sphere of influence, has a very sparse population.

I can't understand it at all when I immigrate to Shandong, Henan, Sichuan and other places.

The population in these places is very dense and there is no need to accept immigrants.

In the past, only tens of thousands of people were immigrated, but this time it was so big that hundreds of thousands of people were immigrated at once.

We, Jinghai Mansion, only have a few people in total. The imperial court removed nearly half of the population of Jinghai Mansion.

After Jinghai Mansion becomes empty, there are not enough people to farm, so why should we still immigrate here from the country?

Really do this kind of thing.

This is not about taking off your pants and farting, it is unnecessary.

A lot of people's fat and money have been wasted on unnecessary things like this."

Ma Kaiheng looked at Wang Kai, the head of the Jinghai Prefecture's security forces, and complained.

He walked over and said: "Captain Wang is right, the imperial court does have a plan to immigrate from the country.

I was so busy with this some time ago that I didn't even have time to eat.

I think it is very necessary for the imperial court to do this, and it is worth spending no matter how much money is spent.

If we want to maintain long-term peace and order in an area, we must eliminate the indigenous people and let our people occupy this place.

The most labor-saving way is to kill all the locals and be done with it.

Nomads like to use this method. Whether it is Liao, Jin or Mongolia, they all adopted this method after they entered the Central Plains.

We Han people were massacred. This method not only intimidated us, but also made it easier for them to rule.

Our Central Plains dynasty, as a farming civilization, chose a softer approach.

That is to use the inclusiveness of civilization to assimilate these people.

Except for the Mongolian tribes who have always occupied the north.

Huns, Khitan, Jurchen and other large tribes.

There are also small tribes such as the Xianbei and Qiang people, they have disappeared.

But this fusion method is too slow and takes hundreds of years.

The immigration policy formulated by the imperial court can speed up the process at a small cost.

The only price is that you need to spend more silver."

Ma Kaiheng admires His Majesty and the court officials very much. The immigration policy they came up with has very obvious effects.

He has always fully supported this policy. Only when the Han population in Jinghai Prefecture increases, this place will be truly stable.

Now that many of the indigenous people have been removed, the security of Jinghai Mansion has immediately improved a lot.

Ma Kaiheng saw Captain Wang standing there stunned, absorbing what he said.

He continued to inspect the immigrant camp and saw that the porridge in the immigrants' bowls was very thin.

He immediately ordered: "The porridge now is too thin, and this won't work.

We don't have enough food, but there is no food shortage in the immigrant camps.

I have asked the province for instructions on how to have a bumper corn harvest in Liaodong Province this year.

The province provided us with a large amount of cornmeal.

Give these immigrants enough food so that they can travel to Southeast Asia in a healthy way."

Ma Kaiheng inspected the immigrant camp and found that not one of the immigrants starved to death in the camp.

If someone has a headache or a fever, a doctor will treat them.

It would be very good if the logistics support of the immigration camp can be provided to this level.

Ma Kaiheng organized officials to ensure the immigration.

As long as people don't starve to death on a large scale and there's no big epidemic.

In this year's official assessment, there is absolutely no problem in being judged to be excellent.

…………………………

More than three hundred sailboats form a huge fleet sailing on the sea.

There are also warships escorting the fleet.

Zheng Zhihu looked at the fleet he was responsible for escorting.

He said with emotion: "The imperial court has spent a lot of money to directly immigrate more than two million people to Nanyang.

Our Zheng family has also immigrated and developed deserted islands. The cost of each resettlement is very high, which requires at least 10 million taels of silver coins.

This is only the transportation cost for immigrants, other costs require an investment of hundreds of millions of silver coins."

Zheng Cai frowned and said, "Admiral, ten million taels of silver are not enough.

According to the amount I saw in the newspaper, the cost of this immigration is a full 20 million taels of silver coins."

Zheng Zhihu sighed: "The imperial court is really rich! The imperial court is still willing to spend money."

The Zheng family was very rich before, but they were not willing to spend money.

All the money from maritime trade and plunder was buried in the yard.

Everyone's vision can determine everyone's future.

Zheng Zhihu had been trained in the army of the Great China Dynasty, and he couldn't help but recall that the Zheng family had missed many things.

Zheng Cai saw that Zheng Zhihu was a little distracted, so he reminded: "Admiral, let's escort the immigration fleet.

There are hundreds of thousands of immigrants in this fleet. It is understandable that immigrants were injured or killed due to natural disasters.

If we are attacked by pirates and a large number of immigrants die, we will not be able to absolve ourselves of the blame.

We will be arrested directly by military law, and no one can protect us."

Zheng Zhihu laughed and said: "We are escorted by more than thirty warships. Which pirate dares to stroke my tiger beard."

Zheng Cai said with a solemn expression: "Most people wouldn't do this.

Now the pirates in the surrounding areas have been wiped out by us.

But there are Spaniards in the Nanyang region, and their power is very powerful, at least more powerful than our fleet.

[In other words, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, install the latest version. 】

They were originally dominating the Nanyang region.

The imperial court has sent out large-scale immigrants to prepare for the long-term occupation of Nanyang, and these people may not be honest."

When Zheng Zhihu heard this, his expression became solemn and he immediately notified all warships to be on alert.

"No wonder the route planned by the imperial court is a route away from Luzon Island."

…………………………

Sedes, the Spanish ambassador to the Chinese Dynasty, returned to the Chinese Dynasty by ship from Manila Port.

He came to the coast of Guangzhou and saw huge fleets of Dahua Dynasty heading south from time to time.

Phil Reed asked Sides: "Sir, according to the information we have learned, the Great China Dynasty immigrated to Southeast Asia with more than two million people.

This is a population of more than two million. We in Spain do not have this many people in the entire America.

This was the first batch of immigrants from the Great China Dynasty.

The population of the Dahua Dynasty was too large, and they continued to immigrate.

The Great China Dynasty will permanently occupy the Nanyang region."

Sides sighed helplessly and said: "There is no way, our strength is not as good as others, there is no way at all.

The war ended too quickly, giving us no chance to gather our forces.

If the Portuguese and Dutch had done so, they could have dragged out the war longer.

We have made up our minds to intervene in this war.

But the Great China Dynasty is too powerful. If they can wipe out the Portuguese and Dutch in a short time, they can wipe out us in a short time.

When we return to the Dahua Dynasty this time, in addition to steam engines, we must also get the powerful warships and naval guns of the Dahua Dynasty."

Seides had previously convinced the governor to prepare to intervene in this war.

Not in the name of Spain, but in the name of mercenaries.

After putting on a layer of vest, all parties know clearly who the enemy is, but they will not betray each other.

Just as the Spanish were preparing to intervene in the battlefield, they received the bad news that the Dutch army had been wiped out.

The Netherlands and Portugal perished too quickly, too quickly.

All of them were frightened by the strength of the Dahua Dynasty.

No one will act rashly until they understand the true strength of the Great China Navy.

…………………………

The wind was howling, and the waves kept crashing against the ship.

The huge passenger ship kept rocking in the sea.

Captain Li Wentong heard crying on the deck.

He shouted loudly: "The crew took action immediately and arranged all the immigrants into the cabin.

This is just a small storm, not a typhoon. Don't be afraid, the ship will be fine."

Li Wentong spent a lot of words before he allowed these immigrants to return to the cabin.

He was a maritime merchant who was employed by the government and was responsible for transporting immigrants to Southeast Asia.

He has been worshiping Mazu and praying for calm on the road.

I hope this is just an ordinary storm and not a sign of an approaching typhoon.

Li Wentong felt relieved when he saw all the immigrants entering the cabin.

Now this kind of wind and waves will not have a fatal impact on large ships.

But for immigrants who go to sea for the first time, it is enough to make them very scared.

It was getting dark, and it was windy and raining heavily outside.

The ship was pushed up and down by the wind and waves.

"Mom, Wen'er is afraid."

A little girl of four or five years old huddled in the cabin and shivered, listening to the roar of the storm outside.

A woman put down the baby in her arms, picked up the scared little girl, and comforted him.

Wu Zheng, a big man from Shaanxi Province in the room, sighed when he saw this scene.

"What kind of world is this? My life was very difficult before and I never dared to have children.

The emperor went to northern Shaanxi and his life became better.

Unexpectedly, we encountered a severe drought that had never happened in a century.

Even the water in the wells has dried up, and the fields are completely dry. They can only survive by relying on the court to adjust grain from outside.

The township head took us to Nanyang.

We have never been on a ship in our lives, who knew that going to Nanyang would be so dangerous."

Wu Zheng just complained a few words and looked at the wowotou beside the bed.

As little people as they are, as long as they have something to eat, they can endure no matter how great the suffering.

…………………………

At Danmaxi Port, the Governor of the First Fleet of the Royal Navy, Lu Yuanshan, came to bid farewell to the Third Fleet.

Governor Zhang Wanfeng stood on the boat and waved to Governor Lu Yuanshan.

The Third Fleet has been ordered to return to Lushunkou to protect the coastline of northern China.

And removed some officers to form the Fourth Fleet.

The air whistle sounded.

The warships of the Third Fleet slowly left the port, and the Danmaxi port became a little empty.

Lu Yuanshan's original intention was to come to Nanyang to make contributions.

Unexpectedly, the First Fleet was left in Nanyang by the imperial court.

He should have thought long ago that in such a large territory as Nanyang, sufficient troops must be reserved.

The First Fleet stayed in Nanyang, and there was not much fighting around Nanyang.

From now on, we can only watch other brother units make great achievements.

The messenger ran to the dock and reported to Lu Yuanshanhui.

"My Lord Governor, the Governor of Nanyang, Wu Hongyi, has something to discuss with you."

Lu Yuanshan quickly rushed to the Nanyang Governor's Yamen.

Wu Hongyi came out personally to greet Lu Yuanshan.

"Sorry to bother Governor Lu, the Ninth Army is already gathering and is preparing to withdraw from Nanyang when the Nanyang Army arrives.

The imperial court issued an order to immigrate two million people and asked the Nanyang Governor's Mansion to resettle them.

The current Nanyang Governor's Mansion does not have the ability to accommodate so many people.

I really have no choice but to ask the military to help us resettle these immigrants."

An order from the imperial court was sent to the Nanyang Governor's Mansion.

When Wu Hongyi received this order, his brain felt a little dizzy.

The current Nanyang Governor's Mansion manages a population of only over 200,000.

The rest are indigenous people, and they basically just control the tribal leaders and let these indigenous tribes manage themselves.

The imperial court suddenly sent two million people, and it was still a population that had to be allocated land and directly managed.

This is a huge challenge for the Nanyang Governor's Mansion.

There are not that many officials in the Nanyang Governor's Mansion.

Wu Hongyi finally listened to the advice of his subordinates and asked the military to help manage so many people.

Martial control has not yet ended in many places in Southeast Asia.

Let the military assist in management for a period of time, and the Nanyang Governor-General's Office promotes and trains some talents from immigrants to establish effective rule.

As long as the first batch of immigrants are accepted, the subsequent immigrants only need to expand the size of the village to fully accommodate them.

When Lu Yuanshan heard this request, he immediately agreed.

He also made a suggestion to allow immigrants to stay in Java first.

Let these immigrants adapt to the climate of Nanyang, and at the same time confirm that they do not bring diseases.

Only after ensuring safety can they be assigned to various locations in Southeast Asia.

A large-scale epidemic outbreak can destroy their early preparations.

When Governor Wu Hongyi heard this suggestion, he broke into a cold sweat and agreed with Lu Yuanshan's suggestion.

He had always been afraid that immigrants would not adapt to the environment here in Nanyang, and did not consider that immigrants might bring plagues.

Fortunately, it was discovered early and this loophole must be plugged.
