What is the benefit of having more vassal kings?

If there is not much land like before the first year of Chongzhen or earlier, the people of the Ming Dynasty will not have enough to eat, and one more vassal king is one more scourge.

After all, the vassal king is just like Pixiu, it is a horn that only eats and does not pull, taking advantage of the benefits and not doing people's affairs, and digging the corners of the Ming Dynasty, constantly squeezing the living space of ordinary people.

It is the same in terms of land, money or other means of production.

But the current Ming Dynasty is completely different.

After the pacification of Jiannu, a large amount of land was vacated in Liaodong, and the land vacated by Nuergan was even more, even close to one-third of the Ming Dynasty.

These lands themselves are enough to feed the Ming Dynasty's population of less than 200 million, but the East China Sea Fleet and the South China Sea Fleet have taken Luzon and Batavia into the hands of the Ming Dynasty, and this is still without counting Taiwan.

With so much land, and the fact that there is still a Chen Zuqi at the Royal Academy who is constantly researching high-yield crops, maybe one day the grain will suddenly become high-yielding, and it will be easy to feed the existing 200 million people.

Together, these conditions have created a situation where the land is vast and the people are few, and the benefits of having more vassal kings are too many!

Let's not talk about how much land the vassal kings vacated, after all, the current situation of the Ming Dynasty is that there is too much land and too few people.

Not to mention that the vassal kings will make Emperor Chongzhen have a lot of income - if you don't pay tribute, you still want to get a good place?

Just like Zhu Yujian and Zhu Cunji, who chose to replace their fiefs and go to sea in the early days, they not only returned the land of the fief to the Ming Dynasty completely, but also paid tribute to Emperor Chongzhen with a large sum of silver.

The biggest benefit is that it means that it is one step closer to Emperor Chongzhen's dream of turning the earth into a pigsty and a world war is a civil war.

After all, no matter how stupid these vassal kings are, once they have tangible benefits, who wouldn't play with their lives to develop their own feudal kingdom?

And what is the first element of the development of a feudal state?

It's not the army, it's not technology, it's not money, it's the population!

Without population, there would not be enough troops, not enough taxes, and no way to develop any black technology that defies the sky.

In order to have a sufficient population, Zhu Yujian's scum not only recruited displaced people at the beginning, but also distributed the money to settle down, how big of a problem did it solve for the Ming Dynasty, which was already stormy at the beginning?

It's the same now!

As long as there are enough vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, what kind of benefits can these sweet vassal kings not be promised in order to have enough population in their fiefdoms?

Silver? House? Even a daughter-in-law? Didn't you see that Zhu Yujian's scum has already introduced a new policy in Xinming Island, saying that he will give ten taels of silver if he has an extra child?

Once these vassal kings who could not be officials and could only study knowledge became shrewd, Emperor Chongzhen never dared to underestimate their lower limit - there was no minimum, only lower!

Then, the Tui En Decree turned the vassal kings who were originally like elephants into countries the size of donkeys, who was the biggest beneficiary?

It's still Da Ming!

Or Emperor Chongzhen himself will not see this day in his lifetime, but his children and grandchildren will always have the opportunity to see it, right?

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen simply spoke: "What about Shi Aiqing and Xu Aiqing?" ”

Shi Fenglai bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the feudal king and the governor should be governed at the same time, which can prevent the feudal king from sitting big, and prevent the people from being separated from my Ming Dynasty." ”

Lowering his head and glancing at Shi Fenglai, Xu Yushan simply bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the minister seconded what Shi Ge Lao said." If only the vassal king is divided and ruled, the days will be long, and the people of the land will only know that there is a vassal king but do not know that there is a Ming Dynasty, and it is easy to cause trouble. ”

Anyway, Shi Fenglai and Wen Tiren must be looking at each other unpleasantly, so it doesn't seem like anything to add a fire by yourself?

Xu Yushan almost pointed to Wen Tiren's nose and said that he didn't take this into account, and any more martyrdom in the future will be Wen Tiren's responsibility.

For Xu Yushan's thoughts, Emperor Chongzhen naturally saw it thoroughly, but he didn't break it, but nodded directly: "What Shi Aiqing said is good, it is indeed the best choice to rule by dividing the governor and the vassal king." ”

Selling the vassal kings, not only did the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty sell without pressure, but the emperors of Zhu Laosi's line sold it even more easily.

The king of Liao was deposed only because of the promotion of civil officials and his own death? Why does King Ning's family keep thinking about rebellion and death?

King Zhou, King Dai, King Qi, King Min, King Su, which of these princes who already existed when the Ming Dynasty was founded was not cleaned up by Zhu Laosi?

Especially the unlucky Ning Xian Wang Zhu Quan, Zhu Laosi swore to rule the world with him when he raised the army.

When Zhu Laosi really won the world, not only did he not mention the division and rule of the world, but also moved Zhu Quan from Hebei to Nanchang, Jiangxi, and seized his military power.

Otherwise, Zhu Chenhao would have nothing to do when he was full, thinking about rebelling.

When it came to Emperor Chongzhen, it was even more powerful, and he simply wiped out his own uncle Fuwang and his family, which was even more powerful than Zhu Laosi.

Therefore, after selling the vassal kings for a few dollars, and by the way, getting some vassal kings to go to Africa to bask in the sun, Emperor Chongzhen didn't even have the slightest psychological pressure.

The only question is the selection of the Governor.

After all, when Xinming Island was in place, it also involved the problem of the local natives, and it was also the first time to play the replacement fiefdom, so it was inevitable that he lacked some experience, and he had to take care of the combat effectiveness of the Australian natives, so he didn't get a governor out.

Now if you get this part of Africa again, it will be impossible not to get a governor - just those black uncles in Africa, if you give each of them an AK to shoot, you can not die for half a day, and there is really no one in this combat power.

It is estimated that Da Ming can hang and beat them by pulling a guard out at will.

Although he smiled at the combat effectiveness of the African black uncles, Emperor Chongzhen did not dare to take the African sun lightly.

After all, the sun that can bask the black uncles until their brains are degraded, and the power is definitely not so small.

Of course, this may also be a rumor, after all, there are still African students who have been sunburned in Wuhan, which shows that there are places in China that are hotter than Africa.

In other words, no matter how hot the sun is, it should not degrade people's brains, and it may still be a matter of race.

But who is more appropriate to throw over with such a hot sun?

It's definitely not okay to be like Shi Fenglai, and it is estimated that he won't be able to come back if he goes.

If you change to someone else, not to mention whether you have Shi Fenglai's ability and skills, it's still a question of whether you want to go.

Although Emperor Chongzhen has been clamoring that there has never been a shortage of people who want to be officials, there don't seem to be a few people who are willing to go overseas?

In fact, judging from the information that Emperor Chongzhen received from Jinyiwei, many officials were reluctant to go to Liaodong and Nuergandusi, and were only forced to obey because the official position was a division of officials.

If you really can't find a suitable candidate, Shi Fenglai's senior apprentice Li Yan? That Li Xin, who has carried the black pot for himself several times, seems to be a good choice?

Anyway, this guy is now the governor of Java, and he has made some progress in Java, and then throw it to Luzon or Batavia to try? Or simply annex Batavia to Java?

Anyway, these two places are next to each other, not too far away.

The problems that gave Emperor Chongzhen a headache were far more than these.

The territory of Africa has to be properly fished into its own bowl, and there is also the land of the remnants of the Yin Shang people on the American continent behind it, and it will be a little sorry for the ancestors if they don't find it.

But these things can be postponed until later, including Africa, there is no hurry, and the most anxious are Batavia and Luzon.

Just as it was already difficult to emigrate to Java and Majapahit, it is also difficult to mobilize people to migrate to Luzon and Batavia.

It can even be said to be more difficult - to live well in Daming, who wants to run so far?

What's more, Liaodong also has concubines!

After rubbing his forehead, Emperor Chongzhen threw aside the report that Wang Chengen had handed back again, and said, "Let's talk about another thing first."

Luzon has returned to the territory of the Ming Dynasty, Batavia has also been pacified, and now these two places are deserted, not even a single people, is there any good way for a few Aiqing? ”

Wen Tiren quietly glanced at Emperor Chongzhen, who was rubbing his forehead, and secretly said in his heart that retribution was coming.

Don't you love the people like a son? Didn't your old man take the treasury and the money from the treasury to smash it so that the people would be fed?

What now?

How many of the apparently spoiled people were willing to run to Luzon and Batavia?

None of the immigrants who had emigrated to Java and Majapahit in the front were willing to go to give money to the ploughing cattle, but now there are people in Luzon and Batavia who are willing to go?

Funny, isn't it?

Although he smiled secretly in his heart, Emperor Chongzhen's question could not be answered. Quietly glancing at Xu Hongji, Wen Tiren simply bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thought that he could select some old and weak people under the jurisdiction of the Nanjing Military Government, and after they were dispersed, they would be organized into a garrison and move to Luzon and Batavia.

The guards have the responsibility of the border, and they can also play a leading role, and they can also make the people of the Ming Dynasty feel at ease, and they can count them in one fell swoop.

Compared with the Northern Army, the Southern Army was obviously better able to adapt to the environment of Luzon and other places, so it was better to give priority to selecting from among the Southern Army. ”

After raising his eyebrows, Zhu Chunchen also bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal." Most of the people who moved to Liaodong and Nuergandusi were the Northern Army.

The climate in Luzon and other places is very different from that of Liaodong, and the northern army may not be able to adapt to it, so it should move more southern troops. ”

Xu Hongji also had a pain in the egg when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Wen Ge Lao and Cheng Guogong are all soldiers of my Ming Guard, so why do you distinguish between north and south?"

I heard that the East China Sea Fleet fought very well in Batavia, so it can be seen that there is no difference between the north and the south.

If there must be a word, it is also that the southern soldiers are not very adapted to the bitter cold weather in the north, while the northern soldiers can adapt to the warm weather in the south. ”

Emperor Chongzhen rubbed his brows: "Don't make any noise, I have my own plan for choosing where to go to the tunken guardhouse, so let's discuss how to let the people go." ”

After seeing that Emperor Chongzhen stopped the topic of the northern and southern militaries arguing with each other, Xu Yushan simply bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace."

His Majesty wants the people to move, and the people have moved, not to mention that His Majesty has also given many benefits? ”

Emperor Chongzhen nodded, and after quietly glancing at Wen Tiren and Shi Fenglai, he spoke: "Xu Aiqing is reasonable.

In this case, Nanjing's household department in Nanzhili, Huguang, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi and other places, selected five households with more than one million taels, 100 households with more than 100,000 taels, 1,000 households with more than 100,000 taels, 10,000 households with more than 100,000 taels, and 50,000 households with ordinary people.

Oh, by the way, priority is given to those who have a reader in the family. ”

When a person can't get benefits from the rules, he will hate the rules incomparably, just like Emperor Chongzhen who has just crossed over.

But when a person not only obtains the rules, but also has the right to speak, then this person will automatically and consciously maintain the rules, just like the current Chongzhen Emperor.

At the beginning, Emperor Chongzhen would choose to jump out directly and force those people who had some assets at home to relocate, even if someone in the middle was wronged.

After all, the general trend of the world is here, and it is not necessary to know which is more important, the suffering of some people or the suffering of the people of the world.

But in today's situation, it is already a little boring to end up in person, so it is better to push these guys in Nanjing out to carry the black pot.

After all, the Nanjing Cabinet and the ministries themselves have some meaning of the spokesmen of the wealthy businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River, and now they don't bury nails between them, so when will they bury them?

And the key word here is household, not family.

The entire clan migrated together in the past, and it didn't have much impact, it was just to let one clan continue to develop in another place.

And these middle-class families and scholars have been moved, and the remaining clan forces will immediately be greatly damaged, and even those top wealthy businessmen have a great influence - the middle ones are gone, and the remaining top ones are still useful?

After such a combination of punches, the result is that Nanjing's cabinet and various ministries can only choose to unconditionally cater to Emperor Chongzhen and give up being involved with those businessmen - all of them make people grudge and still think about it?

Xu Yushan really wants to ask, have the rich and scholars dug up your ancestral grave?

These demands made by Emperor Chongzhen are obviously ill-intentioned.

Not to mention that those whose family assets are more than 10,000 taels are a bit chaotic and constantly cut off the relationship, just doing this by themselves is enough to make the people of the entire Jiangnan land scold themselves.

Especially if there is a scholar in the family, this condition is even more deceptive - the reader scolds people to lose it!

But between letting others die and dying himself, Xu Yushan still wisely chose to let others die.

Anyway, he is conveying the meaning of Emperor Chongzhen, and the real thing must be the household department, and when the time comes, Zhang Guichang, the head of the household department, will be a grasshopper on a rope with himself, and no one will be able to run.

Presumably, Zhang Guichang did not risk his own death and disobeyed.

After these bigwigs retreated, Emperor Chongzhen simply ordered: "Go and get me a map." ”
