I really didn't expect that there would be such a large population!

I always thought it was three or four million people, but the exact number was sorted out by the Bureau of Statistics, and everyone was surprised!

And then there is ecstasy!

I think that at the beginning, during the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao won Qingzhou, and Zhao Yan was not engaged in this state, but said: "Yesterday, according to the household registration of this state, a total of 300,000 people, can be described as a big state!" ”

Yan Changwu got a population of 5 million, which is really not simple.

Five million people came from the Ming Dynasty, but unlike China's Spring Festival, the high-speed rail arrives in the morning and evening, and from the southeast port to Southeast Asia, there are thousands of miles of sea, relying on sailboats!

The southeast province has shown superb transportation capacity, the migrants are transported, do not die on the way, do not bear the epidemic, arrive in the far south, do not adapt to the water and soil, can survive, participate in the movement of migrants, in addition to paying hard work, the key is to "have a heart!" ”

They knew that for every additional immigrant to the Southeast, the Southeast's strength would increase!

Therefore, they are doing a career, working hard, and are rare "caring" for immigrants, solving their problems, providing them with good conditions, and striving to let them stay and live and work in peace and contentment.

At first, there were very few immigrants in the southeast province, but now the propaganda has reached the home and penetrated into the hearts of the people of the Ming Dynasty, and the people know that they can't survive, and there are still southeast provinces to take refuge in.

The transportation capacity has doubled, and today's Southeast Province has a huge naval fleet and fleet, and the number of ordinary ships alone has reached an astonishing five thousand!

At that time, the Dutch, the "sea coachman", owned more than 15,000 merchant ships, and in less than 15 years after the rise of the southeastern province, they continued to build ships, reaching one-third of the level of the Netherlands, and the trend of increasing was accelerating.

People under the age of 20 and over 10 in the southeast province can swim, many people can operate boats, and in the harbors of the dotted Southeast Asian cities, the boats are dense, full of boats, and it is common to see children of a few years old, skillfully operating sailboats, and they can also shoot muskets!

With such a large number of talents, the Chinese have transformed into a maritime nation in Southeast Asia, and it is inevitable that the southeast province will become a maritime power.

It controlled the maritime trade east of the mainland, and at the same time, the South China Sea completely became an inland lake for the Chinese, and it was also an inland lake for the Chinese in the seas of Southeast Asia.

At the beginning of the second year after the Southeast Province controlled the Strait of Malacca, more than 100 large Chinese merchant ships could not wait to pass through the Strait of Malacca and sail to the Indian Ocean.

From time to time, there were indigenous ships that went out to sea at night to attack large ships, and the waterways were not safe, and Chinese businessmen preferred to take risks and try their best to seize business opportunities and open up new markets.

……

Rising Sun, headquarters of the Southeast Fleet.

This is a six-storey coastal building, full of style, the southeast government building, especially like to be by the sea, looking at the sea to be steady.

Hong Xiguan got out of the rental carriage, paid the fare, and looked around.

There is a landmark building on the avenue where the headquarters of the Southeast Fleet is located, which is the white sail standing in three pieces, called "Feng Zhengfan Hanging", and others call it "Three Blades"!

He walked to the gate of the headquarters, he showed his ID, and the guards saluted him and let him go.

Entering the headquarters, I saw the spacious hall, surrounded by large murals, showing the great achievements of the Southeast Fleet, there were ---- first defeated the Dutch fleet, the battle of Dingding----- defeated the Fujian Naval Division, the Dutch came to invade Taiwan, the three Batavia battles, etc., now the scaffolding is erected, and the mural of the "Battle of Aceh" is being built, and when it is nearing the end, Hong Xiguan can't help but stop and watch.

On the screen, the Johoreites are on the left, the Acehnese are in the middle, and the southeast fleet is on the right, flanking the left and right, causing the Aceh fleet to burst into flames and fall into a dire situation.

Looking at the mural, there are also shark tracks, swimming towards the Acehnese who have fallen into the water!

Hong Xiguan showed a knowing smile, the battle of Aceh, the baby shark can be full!

In this battle, not a single ship of the Southeast Fleet sank, and there were very few soldiers who fell into the water, and many Acehnese and Johoreans fell into the belly of sharks.

He went all the way to the top floor, and the officers he saw were full of temperament, and I have to say that people rely on military uniforms, and the military uniforms of the Southeast Army have big caps, short-sleeved military uniforms, military trousers, and various small symbols, which are very powerful.

Officer Hong Xi found the waiting room outside the fleet commander's office, where there were many people waiting to be received, most of them senior officers, all of whom were neatly dressed and sitting quietly.

He went straight to the officer in the attendant's room outside, showed his ID, and said that the commander had been summoned and had been ordered to come.

Soon an officer led him into the fleet commander's office, where there were mahogany tables and chairs, but it was not luxurious, this was the old nest area of mahogany, and it was full of mahogany!

What is striking is the surrounding map, including Southeast Asia, the Ming Dynasty and the world map!

The world map shows the four oceans and seven continents, and each country is marked with it.

It's crude, but it's already the best map of its time.

To Hong Xiguan's surprise, in addition to Chen De, the commander of the Southeast Fleet, Gan Hui, the chief of the general staff, was also present, which made him realize that today's events were unusual.

The two bosses were in high spirits, the rule of the Southeast Mansion was quite solid, and Yan Changwu also released various important positions, in addition to being a leader, he also had more part-time jobs, for example, the part-time military alone had the Minister of War, the Chief of the General Staff, and the Commander of the Southeast Fleet.

The Southeast Fleet is a sub-unit with overlapping functions and powers, and there is a funny thing in which Minister of War Yan Changwu and Chief of General Staff Yan Changwu discuss matters, and Chief of General Staff Yan Changwu orders Yan Changwu, commander of the Southeast Fleet, and Yan Changwu, commander of the Southeast Fleet, and Yan Changwu, commander of the Southeast Fleet, to find Yan Changwu, Minister of War, want equipment.

That's what is written on the official document, which is out of place!

But he can't do both, he's afraid, he's afraid that others will rebel!

He was born as a little pirate, and he can sit in a big position, why can't others?

After so many years of painstaking management, everyone truly recognized his status as Yan Changwu, and he was no longer afraid of others rebelling, so these positions were released, but he was still the Minister of War and ----the Minister of War was in charge of personnel and finances, which was not trivial!

Hong Xiguan saluted: "I've seen Commander Chen and Gan Shenza!" ”

"You may be seated!" Chen De gestured.

Gan Hui spoke first: "Captain Hong, your foreign language is very good?" ”

"Don't dare to be, learn some!" "I can speak Japanese, English, Spanish, Dutch, Portuguese, Latin, a little bit of Italian and German, and several native languages of Nanyang!" ”

Then, in various languages, he said "Hello! The two CEOs couldn't help but laugh when they heard it.

His language has a pure voice and is very proficient, not the kind of stammering Chinese foreign language.

"You can!" Gan Hui clapped his hands.

If you ask further, it turns out that Hong Xiguan's battleship has the most foreigners, and there are naturalized soldiers of almost all races, so Hong Xiguan often talks to them in foreign languages, and he is gradually familiar with all kinds of nonsense.

Chen De and Hong Xiguan's father Hong Sheng are close to each other, seeing that his son and nephew are excellent, he is happy for his old friend in his heart.

Gan Hui thought: "After learning a foreign language and passing the exam, you can get an allowance of 5% of the basic salary, up to 25%, many soldiers are working hard to earn this extra money, but the soldiers who can get the highest allowance are only a handful, and Hong Xiguan is one of them, his military affairs are very busy, his record is good, but he still speaks fluent foreign languages, and his talent is his ability!" ”

The two bosses glanced at each other, and Chen De said in unison: "We are ready to send you to sail around the world!" ”

"Ahh Hong Xiguan was taken aback!

It seems that it is very effective to worship the ancestor mother before going out today!
