Chapter 145: Double 11 Pioneering

Wei Gonggong believed that the policy of "changing the land into Han nationality" on the island of Taiwan will certainly achieve satisfactory results, because although the population of indigenous people in Taiwan is larger than that of the Han people, the total number of people in Taiwan is limited, and judging from the information currently known, the total number of indigenous people in Taiwan is about 300,000 to 500,000.

The aborigines are significantly different from the Han people in appearance, with light brown complexion, long, straight hair, less body hair and mustaches, and a particularly round head. If we use the theory of racial division in later generations, then these indigenous people should be called Malays, which are typical non-Chinese races.

However, since the father-in-law decided to change the land to the Han people, he naturally did not classify the indigenous people of Taiwan as an alien race, and he only made a few notes in his private diary, and on any other public occasion, the father-in-law always emphasized that the indigenous people of Taiwan Island were the branch of the Han people.

After the promulgation of the policy of "changing the land to the Han Dynasty", the close indigenous people in the coastal areas, after weighing the pros and cons, came into contact with the Ming army under the leadership of their respective leaders, and within half a month, nearly 40,000 indigenous people from 13 tribes reported the tribal population to the Ming army and received their Han identity certificates.

These new Han people formed 18 townships, together with the 36 townships formed by the original Han people who moved to the island, a total of 54 townships were formed. These 54 townships belong to Taipei and Taichung and have seven thousand households, with a total population of more than 132,500.

On 9 November, Father-in-law Wei went to Yunlin Qianhu Office and cordially met with representatives of the local Hermes-Epitek and the New Hermes-Epitek.

Gonggong Wei pointed out that the Han people on the mainland, under the leadership of the great Emperor Taizu, drove out the Mongol Tatars and created the Ming Empire. For more than 200 years, the Ming Dynasty has never forgotten the Taiwan compatriots, but due to historical reasons, the governance of Taiwan has not been implemented. However, for more than 200 years, the Ming court is still quite concerned about the Taiwan compatriots, and since the emperor of this dynasty ascended the throne, there have been Fujian officers and soldiers who have crossed the sea to Taiwan to help the Taiwan compatriots eliminate the Japanese and Xiyi red-haired ghosts, and the two sides have jointly safeguarded Taiwan's security and forged a deep friendship, which is beyond doubt.

"When we came to Taiwan on the orders of the emperor, we wanted to completely resolve the Taiwan issue. We believe that under the leadership of His Majesty the Emperor, we, the Imperial Army and the Taiwan compatriots, will certainly be able to blaze a correct path for resolving the Taiwan issue with special characteristics and establish our Ming Dynasty's governance over Taiwan. ”

Wei Gonggong stressed that the aborigines of Taiwan are originally a branch of the Han people, so the Ming court, including himself, did not discriminate against the aboriginal compatriots in Taiwan, and he hoped that the vast number of aboriginal compatriots in Taiwan could take the initiative to throw themselves into the embrace of the Ming motherland, and only in this way would the Taiwan compatriots not be bullied by the Japanese and the red-haired ghosts of Xiyi.

"Equality, mutual assistance, unity, and fraternity are our expectations and requirements for you."

Wei Gonggong smoked a self-rolled Chinese cigarette and said earnestly to the representatives of the Han and New Han Families that Taiwan's formal inclusion in the Ming Dynasty will not only provide security for the Taiwan compatriots, but also enable them to obtain a rebirth of civilization.

The father-in-law said that the Ming Imperial Army will unconditionally help the Taiwan compatriots to speed up their development, and at the same time help the Taiwan compatriots in trade, so that the Taiwan compatriots can truly use the resources of the treasure island to improve their living standards, and the regional economic and social development will achieve unprecedented progress in history.

After the meeting, at the strong request of the representatives of the New Han people, Father-in-law Wei drove a sedan chair to inspect the village where the New Han people lived.

During the inspection activities, Wei Gonggong gave clear instructions to the relevant officials accompanying him on how to further improve the level of cultivation and how to help the New Han people increase their production, and asked Fujian and Zhejiang provinces to increase their supplies to Taiwan, so that Taiwan will completely become a treasure island with fertile soil for thousands of miles.

Finally, Wei Gonggong pointed out that the current demand for sugar in maritime trade is very huge, so the villages in various regions should grasp the golden opportunity of the imperial court to vigorously carry out maritime trade, and vigorously develop the sugarcane planting industry.

"As long as you produce it, our family will buy it even if you smash the pot and sell iron!"

Wei Gonggong's "support" made a group of new Han people smile, and they all said that the new policy of the imperial court was really a great savior for the Taiwan people.

"The imperial court cares about you, our family also cares about you, the Ming Imperial Army is the army of the imperial court, and it is also the army of all Han people in the world! As long as the imperial army is here, you can produce and plant with peace of mind and live your own life... But ah, there are still bad people on this island..."

Recently, many savage tribes on the island were unwilling to come into contact with the imperial army, and went their own way, and after the imperial army's announcement was issued, he still committed crimes against the wind and forcibly robbed the Han people of the fruits of their labor, believing that these savages were the main culprits in undermining Taiwan's stability.

The representatives of the new Han people hurriedly showed Wei Gonggong that they were different from those savages, that they welcomed the imperial army from the bottom of their hearts, and that they were willing to become members of the great Han people.

"Very good, after the imperial army came to Taiwan, you all saw it, but did it violate you? Not really! But some tribes regard the imperial army's good-looking treatment of you as weak and deceitful, and they are planning to get along with the imperial army. ”

The representatives of the new Han people said that the only way for the imperial army to crack down on those stupid savages was to crack down.

"Taiwan's stability and prosperity is not only a matter for the imperial army, but also for all of you. Hello everyone, it's really good. ”

At the suggestion of Wei Gonggong, the representatives of the new Han people said that after they returned to their respective villages, they would immediately set up a security team to be responsible for the security of the countryside and on the other hand, to assist and cooperate with the imperial army in fighting the savage tribes, so as to contribute to Taiwan's stability and prosperity.

Subsequently, security teams of varying numbers were soon set up in various villages under the guidance of the imperial army. At the same time, the 1st Brigade of the Taiwan Garrison, which adhered to the spirit of Gonggong Wei's guidance, also spent a lot of money to recruit "righteous soldiers" from various tribes on the island.

With the assistance of the Han security teams of all townships, the "Double 11 Exploration" campaign plan will be launched at the same time in the Taipeiwei area with the assistance of the Han security teams in various townships to launch an offensive against the Bunon, Taroko, Saqilaiya, Beinan, Zou, Lukai, Paiwan and other relatively large and stubborn tribes in the Taipeiwei area, so as to completely solve the scourge of the "savages" in Taipeiwei.

"This offensive will definitely end before the end of December, and at that time, the officers and men of our brigade will celebrate the New Year in Taipei!"

Wei Guangsheng, the ninth grandfather of Wei Gonggong and the commander of the First Brigade, made a bold statement before the war.
