It's the New Year again, Zhu Youxiao has been in this world for three years, Zhu Youxiao has brought great changes to the Ming Dynasty in this world in the past three years, and the threat of the Northeast Jurchens will no longer be there, and now Xiong Tingbi has trapped them tightly in the Changbai Mountain, and most of the Jurchens have crossed the Yalu River, and they are fighting with the Japanese people. Judging from the news that has come so far, the Japanese are really not their opponents. First of all, the firearms of the Japanese people are not strong enough, although there are cannons and fire guns, but the range and rate of fire are pitiful, in the distance of fifty zhang, the fire guns can not hit, the power of the cannons is a little farther, the defense is more than enough and the attack is insufficient, as long as it is in a field state, in most cases it will be defeated by the Jurchens, the casualty ratio is only five to one, the Jurchens who continue to cross the Yalu River form a team of nearly 100,000 people, and they are basically occupied by the Jurchens north of Pyongyang, Nearly 50,000 Jurchen troops had already slaughtered the people of the Wa country in the plains south of Seoul. In terms of defending the city, the Japanese are a little better than the Jurchens, but the Koreans can attack the city, countless Koreans brave the artillery fire to attack, and the Koreans in the city may have a civil strife when there will be, forcing the Japanese to send troops to Korea all the time, even so, they can only fight to the death in the south, as for the attack to the north, basically it is not very likely.

In the northeast, because Zhu Youxiao's immigration policy was very favorable, and the threat of the Jurchens was no longer there, a large number of people from Henan, Shandong, and Hebei migrated to the northeast. According to Xiong Tingbi's statistics, about 20 million people have entered the Liaoning area, Zhu Youxiao encouraged them to continue to migrate north, the conditions are more favorable, at the same time Zhu Youxiao encouraged them to establish a militia reserve system, and in accordance with the modern way to set up county, township, village three levels of government, fortunately, all immigrants from all over the country, according to Zhu Youxiao's method, try to let the immigrants from all over the country live together, break the original clan management system, and carry out effective government management, so as not to have some ambitious people gather to make trouble or carry out any independent rebellion in the future, Although it may not be big, it has to be guarded against.

In the northwest region, Yuan Chonghuan and Sun Yuanhua, Hong Chengchou, and Lu Xiangsheng have trained 30,000 Hetao light horses, and Zhu Youxiao's task to Yuan Chonghuan is to train 50,000 Hetao light horses, but the time is too short, mainly because the supply of horses and materials is limited. Zhu Youxiao decided that the Hetao light cavalry would be trained so much, and the rest would be trained into 70,000 cavalry, that is, when marching, riding horses should be the mainstay, and when fighting, the ground would be the mainstay, and the Hetao light cavalry could be replenished at any time, and the Hetao light cavalry would always maintain the assault force of the Hetao light cavalry. Don't worry about Li Zicheng's rebellion in the future, the displaced people are gone, Li Zicheng is still called Li Hongji, Liu Zongmin and Li Guo are now all working as generals under Yuan Chonghuan, because they performed well in the battle with Bu Shitu Taiji, and now the three of them have become generals who lead thousands of soldiers, and many of the other Li Zicheng's later subordinates have now been discovered. Hao Yongzhong, Tian Jianxiu, Liu Fangliang, and Yuan Chongdi, these famous generals, were really unwilling to be lonely, and they joined the army together when they encountered wars, and now they have all become officers under Yuan Chonghuan, and each of them has thousands of people, all of whom are guerrilla generals. Hong Chengchou likes the brave and murderous Hao Yongzhong, Hao Yongzhong also likes "Hong shaves his head", they are mixed together, every time they fight, Hong Chengchou presses the formation, Hao Yongzhong leads the charge, and the two complement each other. Tian Jianxiu is polite and polite, and Lu Xiangsheng treats him well, this person is exquisite, and he is good friends with Yuan Chongdi and Liu Fangliang, so all three of them are generals under Lu Xiangsheng.

As for Sun Yuanhua, Zhu Youxiao means that he has to get him back to the capital, let him serve in the army is a bit of a waste of talent, go back and let him and Bi Maokang put together, let them add Lei Mingtian to engage in cannons, the current cannon can only be regarded as a small cannon, and they have to be allowed to develop a medium-sized cannon with a range of more than five miles, as for the large artillery, I am afraid that the smelting technology of this era cannot be reached at all, that requires real cannon steel, and there is no good smelting method now.

Since the people and horses of Bu Shitu Taiji passed along the Yellow River like locusts, Yuan Yingtai began to carry out the large-scale migration and construction of the entire northwest, except for the Mongols who have begun to sinicize the Sunang Taiji tribe, there are only a few scattered minority villages, under Yuan Yingtai's vigorous rectification, these people have also begun to be sinicized. The northwest region has now begun to establish a modern three-level management mode at the county, township, and village levels, and the government's management model has entered the grassroots level, and all localities can be effectively managed.

In addition to supporting the military construction of Yuan Chonghuan, Yuan Yingtai actively resettled for the local area on the one hand, and arranged production on the other hand, and the most important grain production base in the northwest region was the Hetao Plain, known as the south of the Yangtze River. Yuan Yingtai thought of introducing corn and potatoes suitable for planting here from the mainland, which quickly satisfied the food supply of the year, and began to build water conservancy in his spare time, repaired the original irrigation system in the Hetao area, and prepared to protect the environment according to Zhu Youxiao, raise grass and fix sand, and vigorously improve the entire ecological situation in the northwest.

After all, there are only more than 100 million people now, and the population of 1.3 billion people in the Celestial Empire era is not as exaggerated as the 1.3 billion population, although the output of wheat and grains is still very low, and the coarse grains such as potatoes and dried sweet potatoes used as grain can already allow people to eat three full meals a day, plus Zhu Youxiao transported a lot of beef and mutton from the north, and even horse meat, plus chickens and pigs raised by the common people, People's lives have improved a lot.

If you want to get rich, build roads first, use the leisure time, Zhu Youxiao began to organize the construction of roads, and now the Fu King Zhu Changxun changed his original stingy habits, coupled with Zhu Youxiao's enlightenment and help to him, Zhu Changxun united several little princes to donate a large amount of food, so that Zhu Youxiao recruited tens of thousands of people, began to repair the road from Luoyang to Chang'an, and then continued to repair to the west, and has been cultivating Yinchuan in Ningxia and Lanzhou in Gansu. Now the actual control territory of the Ming Dynasty is up to the modern Hami, and the Hami guard is set up. However, it was only confined to a narrow area in Gansu, and the south of Gansu was already controlled by Bu Shitu Taiji, and further south belonged to the Wusi-Tibetan control area. During the powerful Chengzu period of the Ming Dynasty, this area belonged to the sphere of influence of the Ming Dynasty, and now it is out of control, Zhu Youxiao intends to regain this land into the possession of the Ming Dynasty and implement effective control, which must have a road that can be used by soldiers. There is also the Xinjiang area, which is now also divided into several forces to occupy, fortunately, it is not all *, Zhu Youxiao means that it is best to sinicize them, otherwise, these ethnic groups that have been separated from the Mongol series will be driven west as much as possible, and it is best that they can become a buffer zone between Russia and the Ming Dynasty in the future, and take advantage of the situation to compress Russia's sphere of influence, Zhu Youxiao is really unwilling to be neighbors with the Russian nation, this guy is too aggressive, and he fights with people. Now that the Russians have crossed the Ural Mountains and destroyed the Siberian Han Kingdom, Zhu Youxiao now has to think of driving these aggressive Russian fur merchants back. It's a headache, it costs a lot of silver.

The Daming Officials School has now been renamed the "Daming School of Administration", from the first year of the Apocalypse to now has recruited three batches of students, the first batch of students graduated after two years of study, Zhu Youxiao arranged them mainly in the grassroots level of several northern provinces, let them infiltrate the new administrative style to the rural areas, and gradually establish a new type of administrative management system, the new ideas, the concept of the country into the consciousness of every young person, establish the concept of the country, realize that they are a member of the country, and have the idea that only with the country can they have a home.

Daming Technical School was renamed "Daming Technical College", the first batch of students have entered the work, except for a part of the excellent students, Zhu Youxiao let them continue to study under the hands of a few big bulls, the rest have entered the factory, through the expansion of the next two years, the scale of Daming Technical College has expanded to nearly 3,000 people per session, skilled workers are the basis of industrialization, Zhu Youxiao has to pay attention.
