0813 Bloody Year

Fang Degang changed a document and put it in front of Liu Pei and said: "Aso Zhi and his son recruited nearly 3,000 samurai and peasants from all over the country, and after general training, they devoted themselves to the development of Nanyang. According to current reports, they have fought dozens of battles with the local natives, capturing nearly 10,000 slaves in the wasteland. And now some of the victims in Taiwan have been evacuated. ”

Liu Pei frowned after hearing this and said, "We must speed up the progress again!" Now there are nearly 400,000 people stranded in Shandong, which is a huge powder keg! Now I can still try my best to hide it from the government, but after a long time, I can't hide it anymore! I have worked hard to buy land and open up wasteland, but with the existing land in Shandong, it is difficult to accommodate these hundreds of thousands of people! I estimate that at least 300,000 people will have to emigrate from Shandong to you this year in order to barely digest Shandong's problems. ”

Fang Degang listened to it and said with a hideous face: "This is a task that is simply impossible to complete in a short period of time!" How is it possible to immigrate 300,000 people this year? ”

Liu Pei said solemnly: "It's impossible, it must be completed!" Otherwise, you won't be able to hide it from the local government! After all, that's hundreds of thousands of people, not hundreds of thousands of grasses! ”

Fang Degang said loudly: "But I need more time, more materials, and more manpower!" That's it, and I can't guarantee that it will be done! ”

Liu Pei said categorically: "There is no time, if you lack something, go buy it!" If you don't have any hands, catch it! Buy it! Go for Hire! Go ahead and do whatever it takes! I will use the people I get back to die, don't worry about casualties! ”

Fang Degang sat on the chair after hearing this, lowered his head and said, "But in that case, what will the history books say about me?" ”

Liu Pei stood up, patted him on the shoulder and said, "The most worrying person about this question should be me, you just did these things under my orders." And there are some things that will not be recorded in the history books! ”

A Brief History of the Development of Asia and Southeast Asia published by the Kingdom of France

"In this way, under the order of Emperor Liu Pei, the year known in history as the 'Bloody Year' began!"

According to relevant statistics, Emperor Liu Pei obtained nearly 40,000 slaves and workers from Korea and the Wa Kingdom through purchase and employment! According to the limited records, the fate of those slaves was generally not good! Most of the deaths are due to disease, animal attacks, mosquito bites, and accidents at work. Most of those who survived chose to become naturalized and became Chinese nationals. ”

"The most interesting thing about them is that most of the Japanese are willing to participate in the Foreign Legion rather than to work. And perhaps out of their cruel nature, they are more interested in the position of overseer! Therefore, since the beginning of the development of Southeast Asia, almost all the slave overseers in all the frontier sites have been filled by Japanese people! They effectively organized the slaves to carry out the work, and the work progressed quite quickly, but the consumption of the slaves was a little high! ”

"As for the dozen or so other former Westerner strongholds in Southeast Asia, the pioneering operation is also in full swing! Pioneering operations there were mainly carried out by the Foreign Legion and the local garrison. They provoked war by sowing discord among local tribes, and then bought war slaves on both sides. At the same time, they also planned to raid some small tribes to obtain slaves. ”

According to incomplete statistics, at least 80,000 local natives were converted into slavery that year. And most of these natives were also consumed in that year, and the main reason for the loss was still due to disease. Animal attacks and industrial accidents. ”

"But the most surprising thing is that many indigenous people are willing to take part in this dangerous work. Later, we figured out that the natives who fled to the frontier were all slaves of the tribe. In many cases, it is an indescribable temptation for them to eat well! And in the development point, the most abundant supply of Emperor Liu Pei is food! He spent a lot of money to buy a huge amount of rice from the Jiangnan area for everyone to eat! ”

"And the local garrison has shown their extreme dexterity. All the natives who defected would be placed in relatively safe jobs. And implement the sinicization of them.。 Therefore, the highest survival rate is precisely those natives who have voluntarily defected. At the same time, they were also the first batch of natives under the rule of Emperor Liu Pei! ”

"Yes

In this way, under the work of more than 100,000 slaves of various ethnic groups, the whole of Taiwan and Southeast Asia was developed. Forests that haven't changed for millions of years have been cut down, mosquito-breeding pools have been filled, ferocious beasts have been hunted, and countless settlements have been carved out along rivers, with more than 500,000 people settled! It has to be said that this is a huge miracle! ”

In the whole process of resettlement of the victims, Emperor Liu Pei also collected qualified personnel from the victims to form a force of 30,000 people. After a short period of training, these recruits are put into policing. It has played a very big role in the public security work in various localities. And they quickly adapted to the local life and began to take the initiative to devote themselves to development! ”

"Unfortunately, these recruits were not fully trained, and they had to go back to the furnace the following year to retrain. But this method directly resettles a large number of people! Because Emperor Liu Pei's military salary was quite high, he recruited 30,000 recruits, which was equivalent to 30,000 families being resettled. They relied on military salaries to live a subsistence life. ”

"So after the bloody year passed, Emperor Liu Pei used the corpses of more than 100,000 foreign slaves to open up a new home for more than 700,000 victims! Although some people still die from disease and other accidents during the migration, it is a negligible loss compared to the overall number of people rescued. ”

"And because of the high temperature in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, there is plenty of sunshine. The land was fertile, and the settlers produced enough to produce eighty percent of their food rations that year. This relieved Emperor Liu Pei of a rather heavy burden and pulled him back from the brink of bankruptcy. ”

In fact, the Dutch, Spaniards, and English were all frightened by the image of Liu Pei the Great! All they saw was a giant dragon head and his roaring mouth, but not his fragile body! ”

According to the documents at the time, the more than 20 warships sent by Emperor Liu Pei at that time were all the warships he could squeeze out! If all the Westerners at that time could unite and concentrate all their forces to confront, I am afraid that Emperor Liu Pei could only choose to retreat or conduct real negotiations! ”
