Originally, many ministers in the court had a lot of complaints about Xu Mingyang's appointment, but because they were recommended by the powerful Zheng Guochang and Liu Zhilun, they did not strongly oppose it.

Unexpectedly, as long as he was the "King of Hanjiang County", it was easy for him to make contributions, and as soon as Xu Mingyang arrived, the originally precarious situation in Jiangbei was immediately reversed.

Such obvious examples have made many nimble civilian, military and military generals decide.

They began to write letters to their friends, protégés, and former officials who went to serve in the "Hanjiang Province", basically expressing their willingness to serve the "King of Hanjiang County".

Xu Mingyang has made meritorious contributions, he has just been promoted, and it is impossible for him to be promoted again, and it is inevitable to give praise by issuing a holy decree.

At the same time, the "Longwu Water Division" inland river detachment to ensure the safety of the canal was formally established, and the imperial court establishment that Xu Mingyang won was the Hongze Lake Water Battalion, which was equivalent to a garrison battalion, with about 2,000 people.

It does not matter how much money is issued by the imperial court, and the inland river detachment is not only active in Gaoyou Lake, Hongze Lake, Luoma Lake, Weishan Lake, and Dushan Lake, but also extends to Jining Mansion and Yangzhou Prefecture.

It is the task of the "Red Banner Army" in the interior to thoroughly eradicate the Liukou and ensure long-term peace and stability along the Grand Canal between the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, and it is the focus of the work of Xu Mingyang and all civil officials to ensure that tens of millions of peasants and cultivators along the route have their own land.

It is convenient for irrigation here, it is the anointing land of the Ming Dynasty, and the increase in investment in water conservancy facilities should ensure the harvest in drought and flood, and the "Red Flag Army" will definitely not become a bare land and a thousand miles of people will not be able to make a living.

Of the tens of thousands of rogues who were arrested, plus the number of their families exceeded 300,000, except for the beheading of a few hundred heinous leaders, all the rest were sentenced to three to 10 years of labor reform.

These people will be sent to Chifengwei in batches to work as miners, and then two thousand young adults with good performance will be selected among the miners, and next year these people will take their families to the "Hanwei City" on the other side of the ocean to become pioneers.

The homeless and hungry people were coerced into being homeless, living a life of fear and fear, starving and having a full meal and no future, and not knowing when a large family would die.

Many people have been given the opportunity to be reformed through labor, they have a full stomach, they can sleep soundly after finishing their work, and they feel that their lives are much better, and the vast majority of them do not resist the labor reform.

I know that if you perform well, you will be free, you will be paid, you will be able to reunite with a large family, and you will work hard to earn performance.

It is best to use the labor prisoners who have been rogues, seen the light and blood of swords, and have been miners and know how to cooperate in groups to colonize the Americas.

These people are not easy to bully, dare to kill, and will certainly be able to organize effective resistance in case of an attack by barbarians.

In short, colonists should not be too cowardly, or even too kind.

Due to the intervention of Shen Ming, Yan Yingyuan, and Li Guozhu, the civil strife that broke out in the Wa Kingdom became more and more out of control.

In ancient times, the power of warfare was very important, and the Wa Kingdom was an island country, and there was uncertainty in the assembly of troops.

The "Red Banner Army", which had pulled the bias, organized warships to transport the cultist army to complete the assembly, and bombarded the Japanese fleet transporting the shogunate army with a fleet of nine warships, including the Xiyi deck warship Udvoort and Venlo.

This action alone made the shogunate army at an absolute disadvantage in strength three times in a row, and was beaten by the religious army led by Amakusa Tokisada to lose their armor, and the religious army captured a large number of weapons and food, and their morale was even stronger.

So far, Tokugawa Iemitsu, the general of the Japanese Expedition, did not know that it was the Ming Dynasty who was making trouble, because the nine warships were all common to the Japanese people.

The ships were not only flying the Crusader flags, but also the flags of Spain, the Netherlands, and England, and most of the sailors on the deck were blonde and blue-eyed Westerners.

The spread of Catholicism came from the Westerners, and it was the Westerners who attacked the shogunate army, and the initiators of the rebellion of the Christian army were also Westerners.

Tokugawa Iemitsu hated the Westerners so much that he decided to take revenge and ordered the country to be closed and closed, while the slaughter of all the Westerners in the land of the Wa was going on.

Shen Ming used the captured Galen-type Xiyi warships to attack the shogunate army with blonde and blue-eyed captives as sailors, and achieved miraculous results, which directly led to the enmity between the Japanese and the Xiyi countries, and the benefits are self-evident.

Second Lieutenant Marseille Laus has been with the Dragon Warrior for five or six years, and he has made his home in the "Tiger's Den City", with a wife and a pair of children.

He is now the first mate of the Udwater, and has obtained the rank equivalent to the general of the "Red Banner Army", and he receives at least five hundred taels of silver every year, and thirty stones of polished rice and half of wheat.

With this income, Marseille Laus's family of less than 10 people lived a prosperous life.

He was also a Catholic, and of course sympathized with the Japanese who had been slaughtered by the Shogunate, and was absolutely proactive in attacking the Shogunate.

The vast majority of the Xiyi prisoners of war used in the attack on the shogunate fleet were Christians, and they all had a sense of common hatred for the enemy, and their retaliatory attacks were all the more vicious because they continued to find that the Christians who were doing business and proselytizing in the Wa Kingdom were brutally slaughtered.

There were even some devout believers who volunteered to take up arquebuses and join the ranks of the Japanese army.

Not only did the shogunate army not completely exterminate the cultist army in March of the 11th year of Chongzhen and the 15th year of the Wa Kingdom Kanei, but also the army led by Amakusa Toshisada to complete the separation.

The cultist army grew to 80,000, half of whom were young and middle-aged, and 5,000 had arquebuses, and they actually controlled Amakusa, Kami-Amakusa, and occupied half of Kagoshima, and more than 300,000 devout believers followed with all their hearts.

In order to obtain good weapons from the Ming Dynasty, both the Cultists and the Shogunate mined copper, gold, and silver in large quantities, as they had to use these hard currencies to buy expensive arquebuses.

The Japanese war was lively, and of course Shen Ming and the others would not sit idly by, and the "Red Banner Army" took Tsushima Island, the Goto Island, Hirado Island, and Iyaji Island with their hands.

Send all the aborigines on these islands to Chifengwei as miners, and when they can become free people, you need to see if they are completely sinicized.

Yan Yingyuan, Chen Mingyu, and Feng Houdun were again promoted to the first level for their meritorious participation in the expansion of the territory, and due to the addition of new territories, the "Hanjiang Province" was set up with another prefecture, and the government governed Godo County, Pingdo County, and Tsushima County on Jeju Island, with a total land area of more than 3,000 square kilometers.

Yan Yingyuan served as a part-time garrison of the prefect of Jeju Prefecture, and there was a thousand general soldiers and two thousand guards under his command.

Because Zhang Pu recognized the reality, it is also possible that he saw the vitality of "Hanjiang Province", and he did not engage in tandem during this time.

He was recognized for his down-to-earth work, was promoted and appointed, and became the direct ruler of Tsushima Island and Iya Island from the Six Grades Tongzhi.
