Chapter 590: Su Minggang
Of course, they can't understand Wang Yue's thoughts, and looking at the current situation from Wang Yue's point of view, the most important thing is the stability of Batavia, and after completing a smooth transition, they will talk about other issues.
Another is that the Europeans of this period did not have much national concept. Once they realized the advanced nature of the starting point city and accepted the nationality of the Ming Dynasty, it would not take many years to assimilate them. During this period, the people who came out of Europe to venture out for a living were basically people who had a hard time surviving in Europe. These people really have no feelings for the country, otherwise where did the United States come from?
There is another problem, the Ming Dynasty has never been a maritime country, and the people as a whole lack maritime awareness, Wang Yue welcomes the integration of these European populations and becomes a supplement to the personnel who open up overseas. As long as Daming remains strong, these people will be proud of Daming in the future. If you are not strong enough and you are beaten to death, you may not want to stay.
Last but not least, this is Javanese, and it's better to deal with the local natives, or these Dutch, who are more familiar with the situation here.
Out of the big tent of the Chinese army, Wang Yue returned to the Jinlong RV and froze, and after a while, Judy was cleaned up by Li Xuezhu. The skirts of the Europeans were also changed to the camouflage uniforms of the Tiance Army, and the stupid girl standing there still had a snickering smile on her face. I really don't know what she's happy about, she keeps touching this and there, touching there, is this dress so good? You don't have to look like this hairstyle, right?
"I asked you to show her around, how did you get her like this? That's a lot to do! Wang Yue said dissatisfiedly.
Li Xuezhu asked in surprise: "What, not sisters?" ”
Wang Yue pouted and said: "She has her role, don't you change her, am I so messy?" ”
Li Xuezhu had a strange expression of I believe you, and Wang Yue didn't bother to explain.
Judy was overjoyed when she left, and she had a hairpin on her head, and she refused to take it off. There is an extra lady's watch on her wrist, this is a meeting gift from Li Xuezhu to her, and Wang Yue has a lot of these things. European women don't know much about the backyard relationship of the Ming Dynasty, and they simply feel that they are popular, but they don't know that they are treated as sisters by these women, regardless of whether they will become new favorites or not, it is necessary to have a good relationship.
As an occupier, Wang Yue has to do a lot of things, first of all, the division of the region, that is, the targeted division of the scope of indigenous activities, Nanyang, especially Java, there have been many anti-Chinese bloody cases in history, so Wang Yue has no good impression of the local aborigines.
Batavia, as an overseas territory, will have a military and administrative structure, like Manila, which will be the Military Management Council, which is the transitional body.
In the future, Zhuang Suwen, commander of the Nanyang Detachment, will concurrently serve as the Governor of Nanyang and the commander of the Nanyang Garrison, and will be in charge of the military management of Batavia and Manila, and the Nanyang Detachment will be temporarily stationed in the port of Batavia. Meng Nan, commander of the 1st Brigade of the Security Forces, will be stationed in Batavia, and another regiment in Manila will be replaced by the 3rd Brigade of the Security Forces. In addition to the land forces stationed in Batavia were Japanese mercenaries and newly recruited Dutch mercenaries.
Nanyang is very large, and at present, the Tiance Army only controls two important cities, Manila and Batavia, and will need long-term expansion and continuous immigration to expand the space in the future.
Once the tone is set, it's time for personnel and preparations. When the military administration will end depends on the situation. After the end of military administration, local affairs will be handed over to the administrative organs, but every government department must have a military representative. The approximate length of this military representation's existence also depends on the situation, and this is a special setting because of the distance from the mainland.
What Wang Yue did was to open up living space for the Chinese people, and the land in Nanyang was more fertile than outside the Saiwai and could feed more people.
"Pioneering spirit" is a very heavy proposition, even if such as the Tang Empire's land western expansion and Zheng He's voyage to the West in the early Ming Empire, more connotation lies in the category of "promoting martial arts" under the Eastern tributary system of the Central Empire. The holy power is outside, the king is inside, and the attitude of the "inside" and "outside" of the Central Empire is so clear.
From the perspective of the whole history, the central empire with the Chinese nation as the main body has mostly "solved the problem of internal solution" in solving the problem of population and land. However, with the improvement of productivity, the historical problem of the population trap has become more and more prominent, and as a precocious civilized society, the frequency of "internal solutions" and the destructive effect on its own civilization have also become greater and greater.
After a similar "internal solution" for thousands of years, Europe has adjusted to choose an "external solution" on this issue of the general direction of history. Of course, the impetus for the "external solution" was also related to their relatively low internal productivity at the time, as well as the emancipation of vision and mind after the Reformation.
The so-called great geographical discoveries and pioneering spirit in modern times roughly refers to this period. This pioneering spirit of integrating religion, commerce and colonialism has also led to the movement of people and the spread of civilization in other parts of the world.
We are proud that during this period, the Chinese nation was not conformist, and a large number of Chinese were also stepping towards the outside world. However, there is a regrettable historical phenomenon that tells us that it is still far from the pioneering spirit, and even under the large-scale national demonstration effect of Zheng He's voyage to the West, the pace of the Chinese going out on a large scale is still 150 years late.
During the Age of Discovery, the wave of Chinese going overseas was all labor migration in response to European colonial activities. A typical example is the explosion of the Chinese population in Southeast Asia in the late 16th and early 17th centuries.
The arrival of Western colonizers stimulated the demand for regional trade and labor, and the relatively backward indigenous people of Southeast Asia were obviously unable to provide qualified labor that matched the characteristics of the productive forces of the times.
As a result, driven by the Portuguese, Spanish and Dutch legally, groups of Chinese, either voluntarily or forced, entered the channel of the European colonial movement and began to spread along the trajectory of European colonial activities, and they were still the products of European colonial development in the final analysis.
This is probably the true portrayal of the history of modern Oriental immigration, this passive but extremely tenacious spirit of breaking through, while spreading branches for the Chinese, also writing a lamentable history of "helping others to open up".
"Report to the commander, Mr. Su Minggang brought it." Confidential secretary Li Xuezhu interrupted Wang Yue's writing, but the general framework was completed.
Hearing Su Minggang's arrival, Wang Yue hurriedly got up and greeted, "Come in quickly." ”
