In fact, from the Ural Mountains to the Arctic Ocean, to Vladivostok, to the Trans-Khingan Mountains, Mongolia, this area is too big, the main force of the Great Qing Kingdom is on the side of Iltskuk, the Japanese are on the side of Lake Belga, and if they want to attack Russia, in addition to the places that soldiers and horses can reach, many places in other places Even if there are nearly 60 million people, they cannot completely occupy all this part of Siberia, many places cannot be gone because they are too cold, and many places cannot be gone because they are mountainous, and they cannot go without much value.

The Great Qing Kingdom and Japan are backed by Lake Belga, one is facing Russia, the other is facing the Arctic Ocean, but the expeditionary force of the Great Qing Kingdom and Japan is in the Ural Mountains nearly 10,000 miles away, near the hinterland of Russia.

Because the pressure on the Great Qing Kingdom is obviously greater, Zhang Qiang thinks that the Japanese are actually taking advantage, because this side is far away, and the infiltrated Russians and coalition forces will not have too many troops to attack here, so occupying here, the Japanese who have reached a population of 8 million, as well as the 5 million Tianfang Cultists assigned to the Japanese, and the 2 million Southeast Asian natives and Nanyang natives, are equivalent to recuperation.

However, now the Japanese have not all withdrawn from Goguryeo, and the Goguryeo people are migrating and migrating to the Japanese, which is not decided by the Chinese Empire, but by the Japanese, who have a large population of Goguryeo.

Goguryeo had a population of more than 30 million, and in addition to the loss of more than 5 million, there were also more than 24 million people, in addition to the 2 million people who migrated to the northern shore of the Belga Lake, and the 1 million troops who were conscripted to go to the Qing front, the Japanese side also had nearly 21 million people who did not migrate out.

In order to be afraid that the Japanese would sit big, Huaxia sent an envoy to the Great Qing State to discuss, and Kangxi also felt that it was not good to let the Japanese sit big, so he ordered to send five million people from Goguryeo to continue to migrate deeper to Siberia.

The migration adopted the method of pioneering, building roads, and marching at the same time.

100 kilometers of road, put 100,000 people every 10 kilometers, repair the road, build houses, store food, the first 100,000 people go first, while opening the road, walk 100 kilometers, and then put 10,000 people in each place to meet the behind, the second 100,000 people, go from the ninetieth kilometer, divided into tens, the last part of the population of 10,000 people and the first part of the population of 10,000 people stay, at the 110 kilometers or so to find a water source, find a place to build a city, build a large town and warehouse area.

The next 980,000 people continued to move forward in this way, and their task was to move a thousand kilometers.

The millions of people who followed continued directly along this road, stopping at the first 110 kilometers to rest, and after a month, having had enough rest, they continued to walk, leaving behind 100,000 old and weak women and children every 100 kilometers, plus a thousand militiamen to guard them, and 100 soldiers sent by the Manchu Han and Japanese to run together.

Siberia is 7,000 kilometers long from east to west and 3,800 kilometers wide from north to south, so that only about 5 million people can completely reach the Ural Mountains, and along the way build cities, widen roads, and the 5 million people behind carry food to continue to the front line, and then the young and strong began to strengthen the roads and continue to widen the roads, so that 10 million people and 3,800 kilometers will take about a year to completely open up.

In the end, eight million people were left alive and remained along the route as civilians, cultivating land, farming, grazing, and defending the cities and buildings along the route against the onslaught of wandering Russian fugitives, serfs, Polish and Cossack cavalry.

That is to say, the 21 million people of Goguryeo, and the 18 million people on the Japanese side, were not idle, but opened roads horizontally and vertically over Siberia, built settlements, and connected with the original 60 million settlements of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to form a network of countries.

After five years of operation, Siberia has basically been able to walk and live in Siberia, with 40 million people and members of the Heavenly Sect, as well as nearly 100 million people in Japan's Goguryeo and Qing dynasties, and the carriages of the army can pass.

However, the price was heavy, and the 33 million Heavenly Sect members and people fell forever from the Middle East to the Western Regions, from the Western Regions to Mongolia, to the Russian Far East, and to the Siberian Wilderness.

Thirteen million Goguryeo, three million Japanese, eight million indigenous people from Southeast Asia, indigenous people from Nanyang, Han people from various countries in Nanyang, and naturalized people from the Chinese Empire, as well as 13 million Han Chinese and 1.5 million Manchus from the Great Qing Dynasty, a total of 38 million people fell on the Siberian wilderness and the land from the Middle East to the Western Regions.

There were a total of 130 million people in the Qing Dynasty and the Heavenly Fang Sect, and 71 million people fell on nearly 18,000 kilometers of land because of a series of actions such as building roads, settlements, transporting supplies, and so on.

This is what the Chinese Empire promotes, and it is also what the Chinese Empire is happy to see.

This is not counting the soldiers and horses of several countries who have been attacking all the way for eight years, fighting with the soldiers and civilians of the Russian Far East, as well as the horse bandits, because of the bad weather, various accidents, all the way to the Ural Mountains and the deaths of the population.

In total, it reached seven and a half thousand men, and at the same time eight years of fighting, which cost countless money and food, and countless soldiers, two million fell forever on the thousand-mile front along Chita, Lake Belga, Vladivostok, and along the Ural Mountains.

However, Zhang Qiang had no way to help them, so he could only give them some guns and some food, so that they could continue to develop territory for the Chinese Empire and continue to destroy themselves, while the Chinese Empire continued to accept and stabilize the Northeast and the Goguryeo Peninsula, and continued to immigrate people here.

Because of the expansion of the territory, which is 14,600 kilometers long from north to south and 7,800 kilometers wide from east to west, the current population of the Chinese Empire is no longer enough to immigrate.

In the past eight years, the birth rate of the Chinese Empire has dropped a lot, and now it is only 380 million people, and the people in the north are not willing to move further north beyond the Mongolian steppe, or are unwilling to move to places in southern Europe and Western Asia, many places are drawn and forced to move, and many coastal residents are not willing to go to Australia, the Mara Peninsula and even New Zealand to live, so the immigration work is extremely difficult.

Nearly 8 million people were mobilized because of road construction, and 100 million people were mobilized because of immigration, but they could not fill up two or three large territories in China.

Zhang Qiang finally knew why China was reluctant to expand its territory since ancient times, and the Song Dynasty and even the small territory of the later generations of Yan Kyoto did not want to live in Luoyang, making Guangdong and Yunnan desolate.

Productivity, those places are bitter cold, there is no water and grass, there is no way to settle the place, the most suitable is a small number of nomads to live.

Because of road construction, immigration, land reclamation, etc., although there were driven Tianfang people and the Qing Dynasty, Goguryeo, Japan, Southeast Ocean, Nanyang natives, Han people, and so on to capture the common people to do it, but the Chinese Empire still killed and injured nearly 20 million people in such immigration and turmoil, and broke out many small-scale uprisings and turmoil, and even nearly 10,000 recruits revolted.

A lot happened in the Chinese Empire during these ten years, which was more difficult than destroying the Manchus, defeating the Western colonizers, and defeating the various careerists.

Because of the previous thirty years of recuperation, and because of the ten years of other countries and forces as pioneers in land reclamation, the Chinese Empire finally survived.
