Chapter 114 Population
Sun Guozhu's eloquent words of tens of thousands of words deceived Maleji and Hu Zhaolong into fear.

In a flash, the sun sets in the west, and several hours have passed.

"King Yi, the envoy will report to the imperial court right now, return to Beijing, and tell the imperial court how powerful he is! Even if Guangzhou is not available, he will seek fiefdoms in other prefectures for King Yi."

"Master Ma, major affairs of the country should not be rushed. You have been working hard all day. Take a rest first and I will see you off in person tomorrow!" Sun Kewang said.

"Then thank you King Yi." Malji said a little tiredly.

"Bachelor, let's go and rest first. We only need to inform Hong Jinglue of Li Dingguo's evil plan nearby. He and Li Dingguo will not be able to reverse it today! There is still time to explain to the court about other matters, so there is no need to rush."

Sun Kewang waved his hand and asked Wan Niance to take Maleji and Hu Zhaolong to rest.

It is already April. It is thousands of miles away from Beijing to Nanning, and it takes more than two months for the envoy to come.

In addition, the matter in Guangzhou was important, and the Qing government also needed time to discuss it.

Moreover, the Qing Dynasty may not have the courage to seal Guangzhou to him.

All in all, Sun Guozhu's deception will not be a problem at all by the end of this year.

By the end of this year, it will be time for him to show off his plans.

Now that the Qing court would anger him, Sun Kewang was still afraid.

If he waits until his [-] soldiers are trained, what else is there to fear from Dragonfly's wrath?
From the fearsome Qing court to the cute dragonfly, all it takes is an opportunity!

"Pass my order to have Wang Dewang's troops from Xunzhou go down the river and surround me in Wuzhou!" Sun Kewang waved his hand.

"Master, what do you mean?" Ma Zhaoxi was startled.

"What do you mean?" Sun Kewang held the Great Seal of King Yi and said, "Did you see it? The Qing government has sealed Guangxi to me. Guilin and Wuzhou will be my territory no matter what."

"Guilin's line of national security and Quanjie will not move in Guxian, but Ma Xiong can get out of Gu's Wuzhou!"

"I see, the king is so wise!" Zhang Hu said with a smile as he looked at King Yi's gold seal, gold book, and the imperial edict of the Qing Dynasty.

"Send these things to Wang Dewang and send some reinforcements. If Ma Xiong doesn't go away, surround him in Wuzhou. Don't use force. If you starve him for a few months, he will leave naturally." Sun Kewang waved his hand. , did not take Ma Xiong seriously at all.

Sun Guozhu's situation is very big, and he doesn't take Ma Xiong seriously at all, who is being defeated by him every minute.

"I obey." Zhang Hu saluted with his hands raised, and quickly asked people to leave with a lot of things given by the Qing court.

"Alas! This King of Yi's golden seal is not only well-made, but it is also made of pure gold!"

Sun Kewang glanced at the seal given to him by the Qing court and sighed.

Who would have thought that the king of Qin, the supervisor of the Ming Dynasty, would use the treasure of the king of Qin, which was actually gold-plated?

If you tell me this, no one else will believe it.

The majestic King of Qin used a gold-plated seal. Sun Kewang, the leader of the country, was really wronged.

"My lord, please calm down. Those people in the Yongli court are not worthy of your anger." Ma Zhaoxi quickly comforted him.

"Gu Ye was emotional for a moment." Sun Kewang sighed lightly.

In the early morning of the next day, Sun Kewang personally walked Malji thirty miles away slowly, and stuffed these kind Tatars with many gifts in large and small packages.

"The Righteous King has treated me like this, and there is nothing Malji can do to repay me!"

"Xiao Wang admires Mr. Ma's integrity. You can afford these gifts!" Sun Kewang said seriously.

"Okay! Thank you King Yi. The envoy will take his leave now. He will come to Nanning for a visit someday!" Malji said with cupped hands.

"Take care, Bachelor Ma!" Sun Kewang returned the favor.

"As the governor of Liangjiang, he was unwilling to plunder the people during the San Francisco Revolution and was dismissed by Kang Kuangshi. Maleji is indeed a human being. I will see you in Beijing someday. I will keep your whole family."

Sun Kewang sighed slightly.

Kang Mazi can actually also be called Kang ore.

He, the emperor who loved the people, asked the officials of the Qing Dynasty to collect 80.00% of the fire consumption.

Damn it, our Ming Dynasty is like this, the fire consumption is only twenty or thirty, the fire consumption of eighty is really admirable!
So in the face of 80.00% fire consumption, the question arises, is the silver ore that we collected in the Qing Dynasty a silver ore?
Although Kang Ore Stone is not as famous as Kang Mazi, it is worthy of its name!

After deceiving our Qing envoys away, Sun Kewang and the jackals, tigers and leopards under his command naturally focused on enriching the country and strengthening the army.

"Your Majesty, the two major camps in Taiping and Lianzhou have been completed. The recruitment of new soldiers has been extremely smooth. Both Han people and mountain people are actively joining the army. One hundred thousand new soldiers can be recruited in an instant!" Wan Niance said.

"Good! Although Guangxi is dilapidated, the situation is much better than when we were in Yunnan."

Sun Kewang laughed.

"What the leader said is absolutely true. Guangxi, including Gao, Lian, Lei, and Luoding, has a registered population of more than two million. Compared with Yunnan, the situation is indeed much better!" Ma Zhaoxi said with emotion.

Many people know that Sun Guozhu is extremely capable in domestic affairs, but they don't know exactly how powerful he is.

This damn place in Yunnan had a registered population of 24 in the 35th year of Hongwu’s reign!

That's right, 35 million!

This 35 is still the result of the Eighth Chongqing immigration.

Yunnan is a huge country with a registered population of 35!

In this era, the world's population has multiplied from more than 6000 million at that time to between [-] and [-] million.

Yunnan's population of 35 is estimated to barely reach about 100 million.In other words, the total number of Han people in Yunnan is basically this small.

Then, natural disasters and man-made disasters occurred.

The people dug up vegetation for food, and eighty-nine died.

Natural disasters are prevalent, and fifty-six out of ten people die.

The sick lay on their pillows and looked after each other, the coffins were all gone, the dead were wrapped in mats and buried in the wilderness as a blessing.

A natural disaster may have killed half of the population due to the inability of the local government to respond.

Sha Dingzhou, the man who had been stabbed a thousand times, was in trouble again.

It is conceivable that when Sun Guozhu first entered Yunnan, how pitiful the population in his hands was!
Compared with him, the registered population of Shu Han is like heaven!

Xiying would not be able to achieve success in Yunnan by relying solely on the Han people.

What is really terrifying about Lord Sun is that when he entered Yunnan, he completed the arduous task of uniting the chieftains.

Use camps to organize households and people.

Set aside all the various ethnic minorities with completely different languages, cultures, habits, and customs from Yunnan and the Han people.

In fact, Yunnan can develop to 20 to [-] hectares of cultivated land, and Xiying can develop to more than [-] people.

The population it mainly relies on is not Han people, but mountain people.

Needless to say, the process was difficult. Sun Kewang was the first to start his business in Yunnan since ancient times.

With a smaller population than the Shu Han, an army of 20 was deployed. Such an achievement is very valuable.

But now after entering Guangxi, Sun Guozhu's conditions are actually much better than when he was in Yunnan.

Guangxi's registered population in Hongwu 24 years was 140 million, several times that of Yunnan.

Guangdong has a registered population of 300 million.

After more than 500 years of development, the population of 200 million has tripled to about 500 million.

After experiencing natural and man-made disasters, seven out of ten died.

Guangxi has returned to its previous state, with about 150 million people. With Gao Lianlei and Luoding under his de facto control, Sun Guozhu's registered population has exceeded 200 million.

Follow the previous policy to recruit refugees.

Although the refugees are gone, there are still many mountain residents in the ravines.

This national unity is really useful sometimes.

Let the Yi, Zhuang, Miao, and Dai people who were driven into the ravines by the Han people return to the plains where their ancestors lived to cultivate, and the entire Guangxi will be full of vitality in an instant.

There are more than 200 million Han people in the hands of Sun Guozhu. If we unite these southwest ethnic minorities, we will ask whether the Qing Dynasty can survive it!
"Okay! We will train troops in the three camps of Nanning, Taiping and Lianzhou respectively."

"With one hundred thousand recruits, we can achieve some success in a few months!" Sun Kewang Long Yan said happily.

The Sixth Administrative Department of Guiyang had already started recruiting troops when it had just settled down in Nanning.

But at that time, there was a shortage of money and food, and our hands were tied.

There is now countless money and food coming from Guangdong and Annan. In view of this, the Sixth Department of Administration naturally relaxed its hands.

"Master of the country, use the grain from Annan to be transported by sea to support the Lianzhou camp, use the grain from Guangdong to be transported by water to support the Nanning camp, and use the Taiping camp to gather the tough mountain people from all over the country!"

Wan Niance smiled and said: "It's just a hundred thousand new recruits. If time is not tight, even if we expand the army by 20 like we did in Yunnan, there will be no pressure!"

Sun Kewang nodded slightly, although the population in his hands seemed to be only more than two million.

But you must know that these more than 200 million people are all people in troubled times!
In the Republic of China, the average life expectancy was only over 30 years. In this era, the average life expectancy under the Qing army's butcher's knife is estimated to be only a dozen years.

These more than 200 million people account for a huge proportion of the effective population.

There are basically no old people who cannot work, but there are an extremely large number of young adults.

In troubled times, if you don't have value and ability, you won't be able to survive now.

You must know that the Qing Dynasty has a population of 10, and all the old and young have taken over the Central Plains.

Sun Kewang has more than 200 million Han people in his hands who can eliminate the old and weak, and can also absorb the mountain people, so he may conquer the world!

"Based on our experience in Yunnan, we will recruit a large number of tough mountain people and train [-] Yi Han elites before the end of this year!" Sun Kewang waved his hand.

"I will obey the will of the king!" Wan Niance and others said with arms crossed.

Not only the Jurchens in the Northeast are tough, but the mountain people in Yunnan, Guizhou, and Guangxi are also tough.

Guangxi wolf soldiers are not empty words.

Just improve the organization, discipline, weapons and equipment of these mountain people.

In a head-to-head confrontation with the Eight Banners soldiers, the Yunnan and Guizhou soldiers were worthy, and so were the Guangxi soldiers!
"The Qing army has entered the southwest. Now it depends on the race against time, whether my [-] wolf soldiers will be trained first, or whether the situation in the southwest will completely collapse first."

Sun Kewang frowned. He no longer threatened the Guangdong and Guangxi areas. The work in Guangxi and other places was also going smoothly, and the Annan campaign was also a success.

It depends on whether Li Dingguo collapses first or whether Sun Kewang makes a comeback.
