At the banquet, Qin Liangyu and others staggered with Li Xiao, and after the two sides became more and more familiar with each other, at this time, Qin Liangyu suddenly asked Li Xiao a question.

info "Tang Guogong, I am really grateful to receive such hospitality from you. It's just that I don't know, what are Tang Guogong's plans and plans next? ”

Qin Liangyu asked like this, and the wine table fell silent.

Ma Xianglin, Qin Yiming, Qin Gongming and others all looked straight at Li Xiao, while Chen Zilong, Jiang Yueguang, Tian Wei and others who accompanied the wine looked thoughtful.

Li Xiao looked around at the crowd, then coughed lightly and said, "Chief soldier Qin, my father does have his own plans for the future, is General Bing Qin interested in hearing about it?" ”

"I wish to hear about it in the next place."

Li Xiao chuckled, and then said: "My father's plan, if it is generally speaking, is to first settle the South Seas, then North Asia, and finally pacify the domestic thieves, and finally return my Chinese homeland to a bright and prosperous country, and return my Han people to a peaceful land." As soon as Li Xiao's words came out, Qin Liangyu and the others were all moved on their faces, full of emotion. Qin Liangyu sighed: "Master Li, your ambition is really amazing to the old body. If everyone in my Ming Kingdom is like Lord Li who shares worries about the country and fights with all their hearts, how can this Ming Kingdom come to such a point. The old body wants to ask, Tang Guogong, where is your plan now? Hearing that Qin Liangyu was so interested in his own planning, Li Xiao secretly thought, anyway, they were already planning to take refuge in themselves and work under their own hands, but they were not good at treating them as outsiders anymore, so it was better to just tell them directly. Qin Zongbing, now this prince is still making every effort to expand Nanyang. Our army has now captured the Philippine islands and divided the acquired Nanyang land into four provinces: Taiwan, Luzon, Sulu and Mindanao. These newly acquired lands are the best place for me to settle the people who are struggling on the verge of death in the Ming Kingdom. Seeing that Qin Liangyu listened carefully, Li Yu continued: "Now, in the territory of Taiwan Province, our army has been developed for several years, and more than 3 million people have immigrated, and the expansion has basically been completed. And now Luzon, Sulu, Mindanao and other places have just been captured by our army, and they are still mostly uncultivated wild lands. It is precisely to vigorously resettle in the past, so as to speed up the progress of development, so that these newly seized lands by our army can become important grain production bases and eternal resting grounds for the Chinese Han people. "Master Li's merits, really far away from the Han and Tang Dynasty famous generals, I admire it very much. So this land of the Philippines, since it has been conquered by our army, how many immigrants do you have to immigrate? Ma Xianglin on the side, although his face was already red from drinking, he was also very attentive to listening. After listening to Li Xiao's narration, he hurriedly interjected. When Li Xiao heard that this Ma Xianglin had already called himself our army, he couldn't help but smile, and then said: "Ma Xuan, this newly acquired land of the Philippines is far more vast and fertile than Taiwan, and this prince plans to immigrate nearly 10 million people there, so as to develop the local area as much as possible." In fact, according to the land area of the Philippines, there are 20 million immigrants in China, and it is completely resettled. Hearing that this Philippines could arrange 20 million people, Qin Liangyu, Ma Xianglin and others were all full of surprise on their faces. To be able to resettle so many people, you can imagine how vast the territory of the Philippines is. It can be seen from this that Li Xiao's work of expanding the land is of great significance to the Ming Dynasty. "Tang Guogong, then all the people in my Kuizhou City have moved to the Philippines." Qin Yiming, who had not spoken on the side, asked. Li Xiao nodded: "Exactly, the people from Kuizhou, the people released by Zhang Xianzhong's department, and the people recently collected from all over the country, there are more than 200,000 in total. My father plans to let them all go to the Philippines to settle. Moreover, because Luzon has arranged for nearly 2 million people to go there in advance during this time, I will resettle all these 200,000 people in Sulu and Mindanao. When Qin Liangyu heard this, he unconsciously sighed again: "Alas, these people of Kuizhou, their ancestors have lived in Sichuan for generations, and now it is better to travel far and wide to settle in Sulu Province and Mindanao Province, which are thousands of miles away, and it is also a matter of making people." As soon as she finished speaking, Li Xiao didn't reply, and her son Ma Xianglin on the side said with a little dissatisfaction: "Mother, in such a troubled world now, there are endless swords and blood everywhere. The people either died under the chaos or died in the ravines, and it can be said that they are struggling on the brink of death. It is the most difficult to save a life like this, and it is better to move the family to overseas settlement, which is a better way out. At least it can save the lives of the whole family and pass on the bloodline, so what is there to be wronged? Qin Liangyu nodded and sighed: "My son is right." In this troubled world, nothing is more important and urgent than surviving. Although it is difficult to leave the homeland, as long as there is new land to take root and develop, live and work in peace and contentment, even if you go to Nanyang, it is not indispensable. "Yes, Mr. Qin is right. The four seas are so big that there is no place for them. As long as you can stay away from the war and live in peace, it is a good situation in the world. Moreover, although the land of Nanyang is still wild and undeveloped, its land is extremely fertile, and it can produce more than 2 stones of rice per mu, but it is much stronger than the land of Sichuan, especially in eastern Sichuan, where there is less land and more stones. Li Xiao also followed. Then Lord Li, now that our army has occupied the Philippines in the land of the South Seas, what places will we expand next? General Qin Gongming also asked. Li Xiao said with a smile: "General Qin, in the land of the South Seas, our army is attacking the island of New Guinea in the south of Mindanao with all its might. It was originally part of Borneo, but it is a much larger island than the Philippines. The island is mostly wild and uncultivated, extremely fertile, and the rainfall is abundant. In addition, there are only more than 100,000 indigenous people on the island, which is really a vast area and few people. It's an excellent place to settle my Chinese people! From the perspective of this father, this place alone is enough to house more than 6 million people. Li Xiao said that Qin Gongming couldn't help nodding, his eyes were full of yearning, and he asked Li Xiao for his life: "Tang Guogong, if you think you can use it in Xia, you also want to go to Nanyang to participate in the battle, and together with the soldiers of our army, you will make new contributions to Tang Guogong!" Seeing that Qin Gongming actually offered to go to Nanyang, Li Xiao looked happy: "Okay, good, Qin Shen will have such an idea, and my father should be satisfied." Well, in a few days, you will go to the Philippines with those people who have gone to the South Seas. When you get there, I will ask Li Dingguo, the mayor of Pingnan Town, to arrange your specific position. Gong Ming, my father also told you that when you go to the South Seas, not only can you participate in the battle on the island of New Guinea, but what bigger battle is waiting for you to participate in the future? "A bigger battle?" Qin Gongming's face was full of yearning. "Yes, after the battle on the island of New Guinea is over, I, the soldiers of Pingnan Town, will continue to attack the islands of Micronesia, as well as Australia and New Zealand, further south, until these lands are firmly occupied, and then we will not stop for the time being. And if these lands are all controlled by our Tang Army, then in the future, in these lands, even if there are more than 20 million immigrants, it is completely possible. Li Xiao said this, his face was full of anticipation. After going down, he will definitely fight hard for Tang Guogong and take all these regions. Qin Gongming said aloud with a yearning expression. Seeing that Qin Gongming was valued so much by Li Xiao, Qin Liangyu and the others were both happy and yearning in their hearts. After the banquet, Li Xiao invited everyone to the living room to talk. After chatting in the living room for a while, Li Xiao listened to everyone's intentions and made the following arrangements for Qin Liangyu and the others. Qin Liangyu, who stayed in Shandong, succeeded Lu Huan, who went to Andong Town as the battalion commander, and succeeded him as the commander of the C battalion in Xingzhong Town. Ma Xianglin went to Sakhalin Island and served as the deputy commander of the B battalion in Andong Town. Qin Yiming went to Jintangcheng, Xuanfu Town, and served as the deputy chief of Dingbei Yingbing. Qin Gongming went to Nanyang and was tentatively appointed as the sentry commander, and the specific troops were arranged by Li Dingguo. After everyone was assigned, they all thanked Li Xiao. Among these people, especially Qin Liangyu, she knew that in the Tang Army, if the commander of any battalion was an extremely important senior position, from the above arrangement, it also showed that Li Xiao valued her. Among them, Li Xiao's concern for her is not limited to this, the reason why he left her in Xingzhong Town, Shandong, is to prevent Qin Liangyu, who is already sixty years old, from suffering from running around and working hard. Of course, Li Xiao's arrangement may not be without a desire to split the Qin Liangyu Group as soon as possible, so as not to make them together and be suspected of being a big deal in the future. Therefore, the three thousand white-pole soldiers led by Qin Liangyu himself, after Li Xiao thought carefully, he dismantled them all and divided them into the soldiers and horses of various battalions in Xingzhong Town. Three days later, more than 200,000 collected immigrants set off from Dengzhou and took Li Xiaojun's naval division to Nanyang by boat. At the moment of boarding the ship and going offshore, many people cried loudly, and many people kowtowed heavily in the direction of their hometown. It's hard to leave your homeland. Every person who goes to settle in Nanyang understands that if he goes, he may live forever and return to his homeland in China. Kuang Zhirong, a squire of Kuizhou, led a family of more than 20 people, collectively bowed to the southwest, and said goodbye forever. Originally, Kuang Shirong's family plus servants had a total of more than 40 people. And now, after the servants were dismissed, there were still more than 20 people left in Kuang Zhirong's family, and the family was finally about to embark on the journey to Nanyang. What made Kuang Shirong even more sad was that in order to prevent the big families from immigrating and forming clan forces in Nanyang, Li Xiao forcibly stipulated that these families should be immediately divided according to households and then transported to different places. As a result, these immigrants cannot form a strong clan composed of families and blood relatives, so that the government management in various parts of the Philippines can be carried out more conveniently and effectively. According to Li Xiao's regulations, one of the three sons of Kuang Shirong's family went to Sulu Province by lot, one went to the Wutuan region in the east of Mindanao Province, and the other went to the Davao region in the southernmost part of Mindanao Province. Kuang Shirong himself, together with his youngest daughter, followed his eldest son Kuang Ruyu to the southernmost Davao region in Mindanao Province to settle down. "May the ancestors bless, after I went to Nanyang, I can revive the ancestral industry, rebuild the door, become the prominent branch of Nanyang, and the Maoduan of the family is also ......" Kuang Shirong, who knelt on the ground, murmured, kowtowed again and again, and two lines of cloudy tears in the corners of his eyes rolled down. After leading the whole family to bow down to their ancestors, Kuang Shirong's family separated from each other and prepared to board the sailor ship to different places. "Brother, dad and sister, please leave it to you." The two younger brothers, with their families, choked up and bowed to the eldest brother Kuang Ruyu. "Don't worry, I will take care of our father and sister, and you should take care of yourself." Kuang Ruyu tried to squeeze a smile on his face and gently patted his two younger brothers on the shoulder. Subsequently, after telling each other to write more letters and communicate more when they arrived in the local area, and let the family contact as much as possible, they wept separately and boarded their respective sailor ships. After more than two hours of busyness, all the more than 200,000 immigrants boarded the ship, and these hundreds of sailor ships slowly set off from the port of Dengzhou. Standing on the side of the ship, seeing the coastline farther and farther away, and seeing the almost endless ocean in front of him surging at his feet, the squire knew the glory and didn't realize that tears were falling again. Farewell, Sichuan hometown; Farewell, homeland of China. After sailing for nearly 10 days, the ships first arrived at Jeju Island, where they were replenished with fresh water and food before continuing their voyage. Then, after another fifteen days, the fleet arrived in Taiwan, and after completing another replenishment, it sailed straight for the Philippines. Eight days later, the fleet first arrived in Sulu Province, at the port outside Hole City on the island of South Tagalu, and arranged for the local migrants to start disembarking. Kuang Zhirong's second son, after leading his family to get off the boat, took his wife and children back to the coast, and bowed to Kuang Zhirong's boat, and then wept. And Kuang Zhirong, who witnessed the departure of his second son, unconsciously had tears rolling in his eyes. The emotion in my heart, how can I say it. The fleet went all the way here, because of the arrangement of two rest places in Jeju and Taiwan along the way, as well as the preparation of medical officers and medicines on board, so the death toll of the displaced people was very small, and among the more than 200,000 people, only more than 1,000 were old and infirm, and died of excessive seasickness. After another five-day voyage, Kuang Shirong and his eldest son Kuang Ruyu's family finally arrived in the southernmost Davao region of Mindanao. In this place where the sea is blue and the coconut groves on the shore are full of excellent scenery, the whole family landed on the shore and finally completed the whole journey from Kuizhou to Nanyang. And his youngest son will continue to take a boat around the southern tip to the Butuan region in the easternmost part of Mindanao, to officially complete this migration journey. Kuang Zhirong stepped on the gangway and went ashore with the help of his son, under the hot and very hot sun, he put up a pergola in his hands, and looked at this exotic southern land a little sluggishly, and unconsciously recalled that it was already tens of thousands of miles away from his hometown in Sichuan. For a moment, he felt as if he had just woken up from a strange dream.
