After these immigrants simply formed a team in Yingzhou, they headed towards Yanjing City.
In addition, 500,000 immigrants from Liu Yanqing from the northwest also came one after another. They passed through Datong, Xijing, and headed towards Yanjing.
This month, 300,000 immigrants came from Henan. Many of these immigrants are relatives of the people in Hedong.
When the Yellow River flooded, many people came to Hedong from Henan and stayed in Hedong. For example, this is how Yue Fei and his son came. Many of these people's relatives are still in Henan. Although the two places belong to different governments, the people of Hedong
I often write letters to my relatives. Their relatives all know that Hedong has been prosperous in recent years.
I have wanted to come here for a long time, but I have no land! The land in Hedong has been divided up long ago! Now, Liangshan wants to develop the north. There are large tracts of land in the north. As long as the policy is good, you can become rich in a few years after you get there.
!So the people in Hedong wrote letters to their relatives one after another, and their relatives also seized this opportunity and hurried over.
Liangshan's three-year plan to immigrate 10 million people to the north has already completed 1.3 million in just one month!
In the palace of Yanjing City, Gongsun Sheng was overjoyed! But he was also exhausted during this period, because he had too many things to do! These countless immigrants needed to be sent to the north, and after arriving in the north, the land needed to be divided
, arrange a place to live, and also arrange seeds and farm tools for the coming year! In addition, it is cold in the north, and some cold-proof materials must be prepared for these immigrants! In addition to immigration matters, he is also responsible for building roads and ports. For a time,
Gongsun Sheng found it difficult to deal with it.
These days, he only has two hours of rest every day, and the rest of the time is busy! Not only him, but also hundreds of people under him, who are busy every day.
Li Gang couldn't stand it. After discussion, the Ministry of Economic Affairs decided to hand over the port construction matter to Li Gang! Gongsun Sheng felt a little more relaxed.
In addition, the Propaganda Department is also extremely busy during this period! These more than one million people come from the mainland, and their ideas are rigid. The Propaganda Department must provide them with ideological education! And not only under the city of Yanjing, but also along the way.
People will be sent to follow, and even after arriving in the north, officials from the Propaganda Department will continue to educate.
Wu Dong stood on the towering Yanjing City Wall. He looked at the millions of people below. The expression on his face changed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Wu Yong stood beside him, waiting for Wu Dong's order. Wu Yong had just been called up by Wu Dong. Before that, he had been doing propaganda work below.
"Wu Yong, do you know what is the greatest advantage of us Han people?" Wu Dong suddenly said.
"Is it... hardworking?" Wu Yong thought for a while and said.
"Yes! It's hard work! We Han people are much more hardworking than other ethnic groups, especially the people at the bottom. They work hard and never complain. It is they who have created the glorious civilization of us Han people for thousands of years! But we Han people have another characteristic, this
I don’t know if the characteristics are good or bad,” Wu Dong said.
"I wonder what its characteristics are?" Wu Yong said.
"Honest! We Han people are honest! These people at the bottom are very honest! The government bullies them, but they dare not resist! Whenever they encounter injustices in daily life, they just swallow it in their stomachs! As long as they can survive, as long as they can have food.
If they eat, they will accept the rule honestly! Such people are easy to manage, and officials can stand above them and dominate! However, if the people at the bottom are always like this, then this nation will have no future!" Wu Dong
road.
Wu Yong felt a little strange. Isn't "honesty" a good thing? The honest farmers of Badajiao are the best to rule. As for Wu Dong's "no future", he expressed confusion.
"You are responsible for publicity and education. On the one hand, you have to publicize our land policy and let them know that they can live well in the north and the country will take care of them! On the other hand, you have to tell these people that from now on they will have to fight against heaven and earth.
Fight with the land, fight with people! They have to overcome endless difficulties before they can truly take root in the north! Let them have a spirit of adventure and a spirit of struggle!" Wu Dong said.
"Yes!" Although Wu Yong didn't understand Wu Dong's intention, he immediately agreed.
"Also, from now on, your Propaganda Department and the Military Department will cooperate and often promote the spirit of 'conquer'! Let the word conquer be written in the hearts of every soldier! I believe that in a few years, we will be able to obtain the results of the Han and Tang Dynasties.
All territories! However, we cannot just be satisfied with this, we must conquer! Let every Han learn to conquer! Stop being an honest and humble person!" Wu Dong said.
"Yes!" Wu Yong agreed again.
"Go!" Wu Dong said calmly.
The reason why he said these words to Wu Yong today was mainly because he thought of the Americans of later generations! The Americans of later generations all carry with them the spirit of adventure and conquest! When Americans developed the West, countless low-class people came to
There, many epic and touching deeds emerged. He
He hopes that the Chinese can be like that, no longer "honest and humble", but dare to take risks, conquer unfamiliar places, and have that entrepreneurial spirit! He hopes that when the north or the west is developed again in the future, it will be the people at the bottom who actively go there instead of
The government drove the people there.
"The spirit of bravery, the spirit of adventure, the spirit of conquest! I have been promoting these for these years. I hope that this nation can get rid of the more than 200 years of education of the Song people and become as strong as it was in the Han and Tang Dynasties!" Wu Dong said secretly
.
During the Han and Tang Dynasties, the Han people continued to explore and conquer. Ban Chao abandoned his writing and joined the army, Huo Qubing wanted to open up territory for the country when he was less than 20 years old, the Silk Road in the Tang Dynasty, the conquest of the Tianshan Mountains, etc., the Han people in those eras
The national character is fundamentally different from that of the Song Dynasty! In the Song Dynasty, starting from Zhao Kuangyin, the Han Dynasty
People have become depressed and "honest". Without a little bit of bravery and adventurous spirit, this nation has become less and less energetic! Since Confucianism became popular in the world, this nation has undergone "earth-shaking" changes! Now,
He wants to turn it all around again!
"How is the recruitment going?" Wu Dong thought about it for a while on the city wall, then turned around and asked.
"The military department is in progress! Originally we had an army of 500,000 people. Now according to the military department's plan, we will expand to 800,000 people and need 300,000 new recruits! We now have a population of 20 million, and there is no problem in screening out 300,000 new recruits! However,
, the military department said that this
The first conscription was mainly conducted among the 8 million people of Yanyun. Liu Aijing of Datong did the best. He had selected 100,000 recruits from countless young people in Datong, Yunzhong, and Yanmen. These recruits will soon be
Send it to Yanjing City." A secret passage from Wu Dong.
"Very good. There are a lot of things going on in the country during this period, including immigration, conscription, and reform of the military system. Big problems must not arise," Wu Dong said.
During this period of time, the entire Liangshan Mountain was busy, and as the Grand Governor, he naturally had no time to relax! However, he mainly took charge of the overall situation and did not let Liangshan's development direction deviate. In addition, he paid attention to some major events in the following ministries, and the specific details were in each department.
The department is in progress.
"By the way, the Ministry of Law will also send people to the north to implement the law in the newly built settlements in the north, so that the spirit of the law can be popularized among these new immigrants as soon as possible! These immigrants have just come from the south, and they have already escaped from the past.
The government and clans have not united yet, so it is a good time to reform them!" Wu Dong said.
After a while, he asked about the construction of roads and ports.
"The roads between Yanjing, Xijing, and Taiyuan have all been opened! Now Guo Yaoshi is taking prisoners of war to build the road between Yanjing and Tianjin, but this road is very short, and I believe it will be completed soon. The dock construction in Tianjin
It's going well, a small city has appeared there, and officials from Chai Dynasty are there every day." The secretary hurriedly reported.
"Very good! I don't know what the situation is like at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I don't know what's going on with Mr. Luo now?" Wu Dong finally said with a smile on his face.
******
At this moment, Zhenren Luo has brought dozens of disciples into Bianliang City. They are all dressed as Taoist priests. The current Emperor of the Song Dynasty believes in Taoism, so they did not encounter any difficulties along the way.
Bianliang City was prosperous and beautiful, and all the disciples of Master Luo were dazzled by it, but Master Luo still looked calm, as if he turned a blind eye to the prosperity in front of him.
"Master, let's go find an inn first, and stay in an inn tonight! Tomorrow, we will go to a Taoist temple to seek refuge, and then find a way to meet the current emperor!" Luo Zhenren's second disciple said.
"Then what's the trouble? Let's go to the palace today!" Luo Zhenren said calmly.
"Going to the palace?" The disciples around him were stunned.
"Yes! Go to the palace!" Luo Zhen said.
"But if we go to the palace like this, are we afraid that we will be kicked out? Those soldiers can't let us in?" the second disciple asked.
"I have my own idea!" Luo Zhen said.
He went straight forward. The disciples were anxious, but they could only follow him.
