The plundering of the people of Chin and Liem greatly affected the transportation of iron ore, and when a large number of transport ships gathered to transport people to Lien in March and April, the iron ore in the ports of Luzon Cebu and other places had been piled up; For the time being, there was no need for so many alien laborers, so Tian Yanwu simply drove 100,000 people to the beach to clean them up, leaving only 100,000 alien laborers to continue mining iron ore. www.biquge.info The lack of steel on the side of Chicken Coop Harbor did not slow down the construction process of the ironclad ships, and only two 5,000-ton iron ships were launched in June, and the remaining eight ships were only poured keels and stopped in the shipyard, and the construction began to resume until the end of June, and the construction was completed in September.

Ryuqiu relied not only on iron boats, but also on the wooden boats built by the chicken coop shipyard, the number of wooden fishing boats and transport boats that were built like dumplings in the water continued to increase, and a large number of fishing fleets roamed the east coast all year round, and now produced enough seafood to feed the whole island.

The population of Ryuqiu jumped to three million; 400,000 in the south and 2.6 million in the north. There was no shortage of food, clothing, shelter and transportation, and the new arrivals quickly became stable islanders, looking at this new world with a new mood, and then joining this new world and becoming new industrial workers.

Joy always comes inadvertently, and when the rest of the Third Division finally arrived at Jilong Port in June with 10,000 people from Lianzhou Hong Xinxian, news came from Yuanfu that Yuan Qi was pregnant! For a while, Fu Ning's mouth was bigger than his fist, and he hurried home from the General Staff Department after work. As soon as he entered the Yuan house, he was hugged by Yuan Qi and gave him a mouthful, which made the female doctor standing next to him blush. After asking the female doctor, it was confirmed that Yuan Qi was indeed pregnant, three months old, and her pulse was stable. Fu Ning didn't know how to take the pulse, and took the female doctor's hand in a daze and asked the female doctor repeatedly, "Are you sure?!" The female doctor who asked was at a loss.

In the blink of an eye, it has been eight years since Fu Ning came to this world; At the beginning of the summer of the fourteenth year, he inexplicably came to Xiaoyang Village from the original world, and later in the winter of the sixteenth year, Yang Wenshi gave birth to Yang Antai to him, and now it has been six years; If Xiaoyang Village is still around, his son should be six years old; Alas! The past is like smoke and the wind is gone, leaving melancholy in my heart! Fu Ning sighed; If you have a child, you will miss your parents, although Yuan Qi is only two months pregnant, Fu Ning might as well imagine what his future will be, but before he can imagine the future, he thinks of his elderly biological parents, and finally can't hold it back anymore for a while, and cries loudly.

This is also the first time that Fu Ning has cried bitterly in eight years, when Xiaoyang Village was slaughtered, Fu Ning was just red eyes and tears, but he didn't cry; And now he suddenly cried out because he missed his parents. Fu Ning's feelings are very strange, thinking that when he was young, his dearest grandmother died of illness, and he once smiled at the funeral to receive the condolences who came to mourn, but two months later, he suddenly remembered that his grandmother cried all night. In psychological terms, this is an emotional depression that is not conducive to mental health; But Fu Ning is not illiterate psychologically, and naturally regulates his psychology; But "saints also have times when they can't suppress the fire", Fu Ning can't hold back the thoughts of his parents in his heart no matter how much he adjusts his psychology, and now he finally cries bitterly, and the endless thoughts of his parents that have been pressed in his heart for eight years are finally triggered at this moment and cry out loud.

Yuan Qi began to think that Fu Ning was crying with joy because he was about to have his own child, but he didn't expect Fu Ning to pay attention to her, but just hid in a side room by himself and cried bitterly. Yuan Qi was very confused, and everyone was also very confused; Many people gathered outside the wing room to try to persuade them, but they couldn't figure it out; Until Fu Ning cried all night, wiped his tears and walked out with a smile the next day, and then calmly dismissed everyone to do things, everyone was still confused; Only Lao Yue sighed and said, "He must have remembered some tragic past!?" Alas! ......, it's all fate......! ”。

Xiao Yanglan is already fourteen years old, and she cried weakly and took Fu Ning's hand and persuaded, "Uncle Ning, don't cry......"; Looking at Xiao Yang Lan, who had already grown tall, Fu Ning suddenly had the feeling that her children had suddenly become a child; hugged Xiao Yanglan fiercely, "Uncle reminds me of my father!" ......, do you miss your own mom and dad? ……！ ”

"I want to ......,"

"We have to ...... well, Daddy and they want us to ...... well!" , lovingly rubbing Xiao Yanglan's hair, Fu Ning felt that his mood was unprecedentedly calm.

"Hmmm! ……。 ”

――――

When Chen Siyuan, the "King of the Great West", was plundered to the chicken coop, he couldn't see the situation clearly, and he still called "this king" one by one; Fu Ning asked the Third Division about what Chen Siyuan had done in Gaozhou, and then directly ordered: "Kill!" Throw it in the sea and feed the fish! -- Fools who slaughter the people and mutilate the people's livelihood! What's the use of keeping him! ”； On the contrary, Hong Xinxian was valued by Fu Ning, this simple peasant man not only cooperated with the actions of the Third Division when he was in Lianzhou, but also took the initiative to prohibit the chaos and harm the people, Fu Ning appreciated his point, although Hong Xinxian made a mess, he was pure, such a person is in line with Fu Ning's vision; So Fu Ning ordered Hong Xinxian to be trained as a reserve officer.

The General Staff Division has not been able to come up with a suitable strategic direction, and Fu Ning has not been able to find a suitable strategic direction for the time being, but stabilizing and developing Liuqiu and actively preparing for war are the best choices for Liuqiu at present; As a result, the construction of various warships, transport ships, fishing boats, etc. was greatly accelerated, and the new immigrants from Guangxi were properly resettled, quickly stabilized, and transformed into industrial workers in large numbers, and the army was reorganized and expanded; The new plan was to abolish the army, reorganize and expand the entire army into one Guards Division, seven Marine Divisions, and two naval fleets, totaling 70,000 men, and the army should be completely reequipped with new equipment, and all the old munitions piled up in the warehouses of the military factories would be used for training and quickly consumed. The comprehensive and frantic expansion of armaments, education, industry, commerce, and militarization are the major themes of Liuqiu.

In August of the 22nd year of Qianping, Yanshantang of Tingfeng Pavilion reported: "In June, the imperial court confronted the Bohai State in Liaodong, and the Han people armed Li Xinbu with 100,000 people confronted Ningyuan; In July, the battle was fought outside Ningyuan City, and Li Xin's troops were defeated and scattered; The court officials and soldiers won a tragic victory, the casualties were very serious, the king of Beijing County Shuimu was seriously injured, and the sores recurred and died, and the court ordered his son Shui Rong to succeed the king of Beijing County; The rest of Li Xin's troops were annexed by the Jurchen armed Erba tribes."

At the end of September, Yanshantang reported: "In August, the leader of the Erba tribe, Alba Hulu, killed the old King of Bohai, proclaimed himself the King of Bohai, and moved the capital to the city of Fular Tangwang in northern Liaobei." Huaiyangtang came to report: "Haizhou patrol history Wang Zongran fought with the Japanese in the East China Sea, and beheaded 4,000 Japanese invaders; The court was very happy and showed its merits; After careful investigation by the hall, this Wang Zongran is the king Zongran of Xiaoyang Village, Wuqiao Township, Tusi Prefecture in May of the 17th year of Qianping; He first entered the Beijing camp with the prince, and in February of this year, he was transferred from the Beijing camp to Haizhou, Jinling Province, to serve as the history of Haizhou patrol; In July, he beheaded the Japanese in the East China Sea, and there were actually 1,000 Japanese and more than 2,000 bandits. At present, Wang Zongran is stationed on Gaogong Island in Haizhou with a section of Haizhou Zhenhai Camp. ”

Fu Ning urgently ordered the Navy's First Fleet, which was training off the coast of Jilong: "Pretending to be a bandit, rushing to the sea off Haizhou, and contacting the Huaiyangtang intelligence officer in Haizhou; The camera raided Gaogong Island in Haizhou and captured Wang Zongran alive!! At the same time, he ordered the Intelligence Department to report to Luo Yingfei, "Quickly contact Huaiyangtang, so that the intelligence officers in Haizhou will closely cooperate with the naval fleet and be sure to capture Wang Zongran alive." Now that he has the opportunity, Fu Ning is eager to find out the truth about the slaughter of Xiaoyang Village back then.

However, when the first fleet arrived at the sea off Haizhou, Wang Zongran went to Haizhou City again, and the navy had Fu Ning's order not to land in Haizhou City, so the intelligence officers had to provoke the soldiers stationed on Gaogong Island to gather and fight before leading Wang Zongran to Gaogong Island, and then the navy launched a surprise attack at night, completely annihilated and captured the garrison of Gaogong Island, and captured Wang Zongran alive, and the intelligence officers and the navy immediately withdrew to Liuqiu. And the military report from Haizhou Zhenhai Camp to the imperial court urgently was: "It is the direction of Gaogong Island at night: the sound is loud and the fire is abrupt. Pingming sent people to the island: only six corpses were found; General Wang Zongran, the commander of Haizhou, and 1,190 officers and soldiers, have not been heard from; There is no sign of the thieves. ”

In October, all 10 5,000-ton ironclad battleships were launched, and only some of the remaining guns had not yet been loaded, so the five old ironclad ships that had been used for two or three years finally began to be dismantled; In the following December, 10 3,000-ton ironclad ships were launched, the main ships of the navy were completed one after another, and the new naval recruits who had been trained for three to five months boarded the new ships one after another. After the real establishment of the navy, the ambition of belligerence and expansion was completely revealed, and the formulation of a new strategic expansion direction began to become urgent.

When the collective forces are gathered to a certain extent, a "momentum" will be formed, which is called a "diachronic wheel" in academic terms, and the current situation of Liuqiu is such a situation; The army is always a hawk, and the navy is the hawk of hawks; The sufficiency of equipment, the perfection of training, and the encouragement of the forces behind them converged into a force that swept the mountains and seas, so the navy cried for war all day long, and simulated war with all the surrounding forces as imaginary enemies; Xiaoliuqiu, which has only tens of thousands of people and is a land of projectiles, was also included in the plan. The stability, development, industrialization, and colonial plundering of Luzon in recent years have made the people more or less aware of the importance of industrialization and plundering expansion, and almost everyone expects more wealth and more power; And the expression of this concentration of will is the expectation that the army will bring more land, more people, and more goods; All departments, departments, and all walks of life are fiercely discussing where to fight and where to grab; Fu Ning could not refuse everyone's ardent expectations, and before the final decision was made, diverting the attention of the army became the best choice at present, so the tentative strategy was to let the navy train troops, clear out pirates, occupy Xiaoliuqiu and establish an advance base, so as to win a buffer of three or five months, while having time to think about the final strategic plan.

The British court is a behemoth, and it is easy to break him and difficult to clean up, so it is not appropriate to stimulate him for the time being. The surrounding forces also included the Wa Kingdom, Goryeo, Balhae Kingdom, Champong State, and the Later Li Dynasty of Annam; Xiaoliuqiu suspiciously ignored that the situation of the Later Li Dynasty, Goryeo, Bohai State, and the capital was closely related to the situation of the British Dynasty, so it was not appropriate to annex it for the time being if there was no suitable time; As for Champa, it was on the verge of annihilation, and there was nothing needed in that place now; Ayutthaya, Taungoo, and Sulu are all a little far away, and Borneo and Sulu are almost savage archipelagos; After exhausting the method of elimination, there is only one place left, and that is the Wa State; However, the current population of the Wa Kingdom is too large, and it is too troublesome to clean up, and with the 70,000 troops of Liuqiu, it will not be possible to clean up those huge indigenous populations in two or three years.

After thinking about it, under the condition that the surrounding situation remains unchanged, the Wa State has become the only suitable direction for sending troops at present; The ambition of the navy could not be transferred or suppressed for a long time, and in that case, Fu Ning would also lose the allegiance of his soldiers, so it became inevitable to send troops to the Japanese country.

The process of occupying Xiaoliuqiu reported by Zhang Qi made Fu Ning very different; Fu Ning's order to the navy was to occupy and integrate, because Fu Ning did not have a plan to clean up the people of Liuqiu, but wanted to integrate the people of Xiaoliuqiu into the Han people of Liuqiu; Because in Fu Ning's memory, Xiaoliuqiu was a place very similar to the Fujian culture in the Ming Dynasty, and the language and culture were very similar, so it had the conditions to integrate in. Fu Ning knew that ethnic integration was generally a difficult process, laborious and laborious, and often not a generational thing, so Fu Ning was mentally prepared to clean up the indigenous people after failure; But Zhang Qi's report actually opened Fu Ning's eyes, it was not occupation but reception, not integration but reunion; The army did not fire a single shot, and they were warmly received; When Zhang Qi announced Fu Ning's order, "All subjects of Xiaoliuqiu: exempt from agricultural taxes, free education, and enjoy all the same rights and responsibilities as the people of Liuqiu and Han; Such as: the right to trade, open mines, free passage, be an official, join the army, and so on in the territory under the jurisdiction of the Ryukyu forces! After that, the little Ryukyu people were even more enthusiastic.

The original plan of three to five months to straighten out Xiaoliuqiu, which Fu Ning had envisioned, had lost its meaning, because there was no interference from the so-called "integration problem", and after the navy left some personnel to establish the naval advance base, the remaining people began to march towards Nagasaki according to Fu Ning's new orders.
