Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 826, Immigrating millions to the Western Regions again
In the capital city, it is the Lantern Festival, and the whole capital city is still immersed in the celebration of the festival. The streets, large and small, are very lively, and the rich and well-off people in the capital city are strolling around leisurely.

"Sell newspaper~sell newspaper~"

"Great victory in the Western Regions, great victory in the Western Regions~"

"Our Da Ming army conquered the Western Regions in the first battle, wiped out [-] enemies, and captured Mahemu, the Khan of the Chagatai Khanate!"

The newsboy with newspapers on his back yelled loudly as he walked. With the spread of the sound, people soon surrounded the newsboy. In just a short while, hundreds of newspapers carried by the newsboy were sold. empty.

"Haha, Daming is mighty!"

"Great victory in the Western Regions!"

Everyone who got the newspaper browsed it very quickly, and then couldn't help applauding excitedly. It was exactly as everyone expected and expected.

Victory in the Western Regions.

In the First World War, the Western Regions were settled, the Chagatai Khanate was wiped out, Mahemu was captured alive, and the army was still advancing westward, preparing to seize the more fertile Hezhong area.

All of a sudden, all the old and young men in the capital began to talk and talk in every corner of the capital, eloquently and eloquently, as if they had personally experienced this battle.

As for those illiterate people, while they can only itch, they are constantly looking for people who can read newspapers to explain in detail to themselves.

Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, and the Daming country is not only the country of the old Zhu family, but also the country of every Daming person.

Soon, fireworks and firecrackers became famous in the streets and alleys of the capital, and the mighty waves of the Ming Dynasty echoed in the capital one after another, resounding through the sky.

In the imperial palace of the capital, in the study of Emperor Hongzhi in Qianqing Palace, Emperor Hongzhi once again summoned all the ministers to discuss matters, and the grown-up prince Zhu Houzhao was also called to attend.

Emperor Hongzhi's health is getting worse and worse. He also intends to slowly cultivate the prince's ability to participate in and discuss state affairs. He called Zhu Houzhao over, listened and looked more, which was also a kind of exercise. If one day he suddenly left, Although the prince is small, he is not completely without any ability to govern the country.

A huge picture of the Western Regions and Central Asia was hung in front of everyone. Emperor Hongzhi was in a very good mood, and said with a smile on his face: "The Western Regions have been defeated, and Ma Hemu has been captured alive. It’s time to get busy.”

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, His Majesty!"

When Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others heard this, they also smiled and congratulated Emperor Hongzhi. They also breathed a sigh of relief. The Western Regions have been conquered. Now there are merchants buying cotton and wool from the Western Regions and transporting them back to Daming continuously. The cotton and wool prices in Daming also began to gradually fall.

The textile factories we invested in can continue to operate, and we can continue to make money, and the pension is preserved.

"Haha, it's all due to the unity of our monarchs and ministers, and the brave soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who fought against the enemy. This time, I will reward my soldiers of the Ming Dynasty properly."

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he burst out laughing happily. This feeling is still very good.

In the past, although they were blown up to the sky by them, Emperor Hongzhi still had self-knowledge, knowing that he was not capable of writing or martial arts.

It's different now. Wenzhiwugong is enough to compare with those famous emperors in history. Among other things, just regaining the Western Regions and setting up the Western Regions Chief Envoy is enough to make the Ming Dynasty and the Han and Tang Dynasties comparable.

What's more, Emperor Hongzhi has no intention of stopping until now. Liu Jin is still continuing to attack the Hezhong area in the Western Regions.

When the Western Region is stabilized, next year or the year after, Daming will continue to go west to occupy more territory, and hit places that have never been hit before.

Hearing Emperor Hongzhi's words, all civil servants couldn't help but thump in their hearts. It seems that the power of the military general Xungui Group is about to rise again.

In the past, everyone would have stood up to oppose it, but now, everyone knows the benefits of having a strong military.

At least when you need land to grow cotton, the Ming army can help you fight it; when you need to dump cloth, the Ming army can use cannons to open the opponent's country; even the overseas private colonies that are emerging now cannot do without a powerful Ming army Be a strong backing.

Everyone's interests are gradually linked to the powerful force of Ming Dynasty. With the strong force of Ming Dynasty, they can also enjoy many benefits and benefits.

So let's reward the reward, and no one will stand up to oppose it, not to mention that military merit has been the highest merit since ancient times, and since the dragon's merit is a bit unrecognizable, this is the real great contribution.

"The Western Regions have been conquered, and according to the Nanyang side, we have set up the Chief Envoy of the Western Regions, the dispatch of officials, and the garrison of the Western Regions. These things must be done properly."

"The Western Regions is different from our land in the Central Plains. There are many large and small tribes here, but we Han people are very few. If we want to rule the Western Regions for a long time, we still need to emigrate to the Western Regions in large numbers as Liu Jin said."

"What do you think about this?"

Emperor Hongzhi soon changed the topic to the main event this time, which was immigration.

Over the past few years, the immigration has never stopped. From the very beginning, they immigrated to Ryukyu, then to Nanyang, then to Liaodong, and then to the provinces of Nanyang. At the end of the year, a large number of grassland herdsmen migrated to Australia. I have never heard of it, and the financial expenditure in this area is also very large.

"Your Majesty, the policy of emigration mentioned by Liu Jin is a national policy for the long-term stability of the Western Regions and even Central Asia. It is a good strategy for consolidating the territory of the Western Regions of our Ming Dynasty. A hundred years later, the descendants of Yan and Huang will multiply and grow in Central Asia and the Western Regions."

"I thought that Ming Dynasty not only wanted to immigrate to the Western Regions, but also wanted to immigrate to the Western Regions on a large scale."

After thinking about it, Liu Jian stood up for the first time.

The importance of immigration has also been gradually reflected. In the provinces of Nanyang, there were too few and too few Han people, and the rule over these places was very weak.

However, with the migration of a large number of Han people to the Nanyang provinces, like the cells of Nanyang, quickly touching every corner of the Nanyang provinces, Ming's rule suddenly became extremely stable.

Although there are very few foreign nationalities in the Liaodong area, Liaodong was not developed because of insufficient population, and a treasure land was left barren.

Hundreds of thousands of people migrated to Liaodong in the winter of the [-]th year of Hongzhi, and a million people continued to migrate to Liaodong in the [-]th year of Hongzhi. After preliminary development in the [-]th year of Hongzhi, the entire Liaodong region quickly became a prosperous province. .

Among other things, the grain produced in the Liaodong region alone not only meets the local needs of Liaodong, but can even be exported to the Beijing-Tianjin region of the Ming Dynasty on a large scale, becoming an important production area.

Secondly, Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated, and the development of animal husbandry is also extremely favorable. There are already commercial companies building pastures here in Liaodong, and more and more cattle, sheep, and horses are being produced. In the future, there will even be a trend comparable to that of the grassland province. .

That's the beauty of immigration.

At the beginning, I felt that it was a waste of national power, laboring the people and wasting money, etc., and the people who migrated were reluctant, but now, the benefits gradually emerged, consolidating the territory and territory of Ming Dynasty, developing these areas, and greatly eased the situation. The huge population pressure on the Central Plains provinces.

Of course, this is for Daming.

For the capitalists of Ming Dynasty, it is even more necessary to migrate a large number of people to these places.

The plantations in Nanyang, the farms, forest farms, and pastures in Liaodong, whether it is planting cotton or raising cattle and sheep after the Western Regions, no one can do it, so we can’t rely on foreigners, right?

Therefore, we must support the imperial court's immigration to the Western Regions. If there is no need to say it, all hands are in favor. If someone immigrates, their cotton, cattle and sheep raising in the Western Regions will be guaranteed.

"Your Majesty, I think what Liu Gong said is reasonable, not only emigration, but also large-scale emigration."

"The northwestern region is vast and sparsely populated, and our Han people are rare. If we don't immigrate to the real border, the rule of the Western Regions will be unstable."

"Didn't Liu Jin say in his memorials that he is seizing the Hezhong region, which is the most fertile region in the entire Western Region and Central Asia. As long as the Hezhong region is well managed, the Western Region will be stable, and it can be used as a basis in the future. The stronghold expands to a wider area."

"I think that we should immigrate at least one million people to the Western Regions this year. The imperial court organizes immigration to the Western Regions, and at the same time encourages individuals to immigrate to the Western Regions, encourages groups to go to the Western Regions, and consolidate our rule in the Western Regions of Ming Dynasty."

Li Dongyang also stood up and stated that Zhang Kai would immigrate millions to the Western Regions.

"A million immigrants?"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but widen their eyes slightly. It was another million-dollar immigration plan.

"Your Majesty, what Li Gong said is reasonable, but the Western Regions have always been a place of bitter cold, and the people are afraid that they will not be willing to immigrate to the Western Regions. Therefore, I think that the immigration policy of the Western Regions should be given more preferential policies. For example, in terms of land, taxation More preferential policies will be given.”

Xie Qian also nodded and said.

Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Xie Qian spoke, and others naturally followed suit. The core is one, they must immigrate to the Western Regions, and large-scale emigration to the Western Regions is required.

At least one million people must immigrate to the Western Regions, preferably two million or three million. Anyway, the more the better, the Western Regions are very large, and the Hezhong area is also very large and very rich. Without a few million people, it is impossible to occupy them. such a vast area.

"Haha, since the opinions of all the dear ones are very unified, let's do it according to this meaning. From Henan, Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Sichuan provinces, a total of two million immigrants will go to the Western Regions, one million will be in various places in the Western Regions, and one hundred will be transferred to the Western Regions." Wan resettled to the Hezhong area!"

After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi laughed happily.

Well, what I want is this kind of feeling, the monarch and his ministers are of the same heart, and it is easy to handle things, unlike before when people were bullied about everything.

　Is the population of the Ming Dynasty [-] million? If there are [-] million here and [-] million there, will there be not enough people~
