Chapter 391: Who Cares (Second Update)
Escaped!
The Taiping army in Ruzhou fled!
How could they run away?
Shouldn't they be responsible for defending the land?
Shouldn't we live and die with Ruzhou?
Obviously, they don't have that in mind! Not even more so in mind!
"That's......"
Looking at the battle report sent back from the front in front of him, such a thought came to Zhu Yifeng's heart. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
I was discouraged because the enemy fled without a fight!
!
This is simply nonsense, but the reason why Zhu Yifeng came up with such an idea. The reason couldn't be simpler, he had already planned everything - to capture 100,000 Taiping soldiers and then put them in prisoner-of-war camps.
In the next two years, while using this free labor to build a railway from Nanyang to Zheng County, they were sent to Africa as the first Chinese colonizers to open up Africa.
But who would have thought that these "ducks", which they had long regarded as a meal on their plates, actually flew!
Can you not be discouraged when the cooked duck flies away from its mouth?
"Heroic martial arts, great martial arts...... Fart! ”
Throwing away the battle uniform, Zhu Yifeng scolded secretly.
There were tens of thousands of Taiping troops in Ruzhou, and the reason why the people themselves let the troops fight steadily was to let them gather in Ruzhou, and then surround them in one fell swoop, capturing tens of thousands of free laborers and colonial pioneers.
But who would have thought that these people are good, and give full play to their twisting instinct - escape!
It's just a bunch of gangsters.
"No future!"
Dissatisfied with the secret discussion, Zhu Yifeng can't wait to rush to those people in person now, point at their noses and say, "There is no future for being a rogue"!
It is!
If I had become a rogue, would I have today?
They don't want to think about it either.
How nice it would be to stay in the city of Ruzhou obediently and wait for him to go over and take them prisoner!
When the time comes, everyone will be happy, and Lao Tzu will not kill you.
It's a pity that it's too late to say anything now.
"It seems that this wishful thinking is wrong......"
Muttering to himself, Zhu Yifeng walked to the map, and he stared at Henan on the map.
"100,000 people, 100,000 people are just gone......"
Where are the people who don't!
It is clearly an opportunity to colonize Africa a few years in advance!
"No, you can't let them go for nothing."
His eyes narrowed slightly, and Zhu Yifeng thought of the twists mentioned in the intelligence that were rampant in the countryside, not all of them participated in the Taiping Army, and a considerable number of them were in the countryside, wandering in the vacuum of power, in fact, it was just a group of gangs of singles gathered in the countryside to run rampant.
"Since those people are gone, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite, it's you!"
If you want to blame them, they run too fast...... Besides, Lao Tzu is also for your good.
"The gendarmes everywhere must pay attention to local troublemakers, such homeless people are fierce and ruthless, and are easily instigated and used by others, and they must not be allowed to undermine local stability......
Since you always need to find an excuse and a reason to arrest people, after making this instruction, Zhu Yifeng looked at Zhang Liangji and said.
"Let's do it!"
"All exiled?"
Looking at the lord's instructions, Zhang Liangji asked tentatively.
"Labor reform first, and then exile, this kind of people are so fierce and ruthless, it is the best choice to open up the colonies, aren't they so fierce and ruthless, let them go to Africa and fight those so fiercely."
If it was a gentry, maybe Zhang Liangji would say a few words for them, but for those singles who wander around the countryside and make trouble all day long, he is no stranger to Xuzhou, in fact, there are hundreds of thousands of such people in the countryside of northern Jiangsu.
"The Lord is wise, so that the countryside will be restored to peace, and it will be driven to colonize Africa and open up territory for the country! It's a great thing to kill two birds with one stone! ”
Facing Zhang Liangji's sycophant, Zhu Yifeng shook his head and said.
"Just moving these bachelors overseas is not a long-term solution, and they can't be allowed to go to Africa to marry those black people, right?"
When mentioning blacks, Zhu Yifeng's brows couldn't help frowning, if Africa becomes a colony of China, will it lead to a large number of delicious, lazy, and low-IQ blacks entering China? At the same time, I thought of the "black area" that appeared in Guangzhou in later generations.
And as a suzerain, it seems inevitable that the colony natives will enter the suzerain.
No way!
We must not allow a large number of blacks to enter China!
Almost an instinctive vigilance, thinking of this era, European and American countries are strict about black and white marriages, Zhu Yifeng immediately said.
"No matter how they are, they are still dignified descendants. Intermarriage with blacks is unacceptable, well, to be legally forbidden......"
Whatever concept is, it must be in keeping with the times. In this day and age, blacks are only barely getting the status of "people." Under these circumstances, it is obviously inappropriate for Chinese immigrants to intermarry with blacks, and it is also inconsistent with the moral standards of the times.
"But we're going to find a way to solve it......"
How to solve this problem?
"My lord, in fact, it is not a problem at all, we in Borneo have passed a law prohibiting marrying natives, and children born to aborigines before this do not enjoy immigration rights such as land granting, well, in the future, this can be limited to citizenship, and at the same time, some of their own citizenship rights will also be deprived of ......"
Zhang Liangji, who joined the army as the left member of the military government, naturally knew some of the methods implemented in Borneo to consolidate his rule, including the enslavement of the indigenous people, and he did not object to this, after all, they were not Chinese. More importantly, of course, as far as he knew, the European nations in their colonies did the same with the natives.
"After all, immigrants come to that land as masters, and the natives are equivalent to slaves, and it is obviously not suitable for intermarriage between the two groups, and if they intermarry, it is very likely to lead to the aborigines questioning the high status of immigrants, and it is undoubtedly in line with the overall colonial interests to prohibit intermarriage by law!"
Zhu Yifeng, who has always regarded Borneo as a colonial testing ground, did not express any opinion on this, it was just an experiment, an experiment for future colonial rule, and as a "student", the best way to do it was to learn from those European teachers -- to educate barbarism with civilization.
"So how do you solve women's problems there?"
Zhu Yifeng is more concerned with whether China can establish long-term rule in the colonies than with the fate of the local indigenous people, and immigration is the foundation of the future as an overseas province.
"It's easy, buy!"
Zhang Liangji revealed a well-known "secret".
In fact, in Ezo, in order to make the wranglers feel at ease to live there, the local governor's office instructed some merchants to buy women from Japan, marry them to the wranglers, and make them settle in Ezo. Now in Borneo the same is true, where there are Japanese women, Korean women, and Vietnamese women......"
What the?
looked at Zhang Liangji in surprise, Zhu Yifeng really didn't know about this, in fact, such a disgraceful thing, officials would not report it, newspapers would not publish it, and he naturally had nowhere to know.
"You're saying we buy women from there and marry them off to our immigrants......"
"My lord, although those women are not Chinese, they are better than those uncivilized natives, at least they are also the land of my religion......"
Zhang Liangji, who was only opposed by the lord, hurriedly explained that he knew very well that if there was demand, there would be a market, and if it was forbidden to buy people from Japan, North Korea, and Vietnam, then businessmen would shift their eyes to the country, and when the time came, he would not know if there would be any trouble, and in this case, he naturally wanted to maintain the status quo.
"That's good!"
Without waiting for Zhang Liangji to finish speaking, Zhu Yifeng said with a smile.
"Japan, North Korea and Vietnam are all part of my China, which can be regarded as Little China, and we are the same culture, there is nothing that is not allowed, this kind of intermarriage matters, not only can not be prohibited, but also encouraged!"
The moment he learned the news, Zhu Yifeng figured out the benefits of this matter for China!
Whether it is Japan, North Korea, or Vietnam, perhaps Zhu Yifeng can say "the same language and the same species", but it does not prevent him from being wary and hostile to him. "Locking off Japan" is unlikely to solve the problem, especially as Japan's population grows, and they will inevitably go abroad.
How can we weaken these three countries, including Japan?
Population!
Population is the real bottom of the pot.
Compared with the population of less than 60 or 70 million in the three countries, China has nearly 10 million or even tens of millions of bachelors, and how many women of school age are there in these three countries? Marrying the women of the three countries to the Chinese is to weaken the power of the three countries in disguise.
It's a conquest in disguise!
It is also a kind of destruction in disguise! Every time a woman marries into China in the Three Kingdoms, its population will decrease by several people, and talent is the foundation of a country.
"Let's see what way to do it, to make it all that, well, standardized, official, and not enough to rely on businessmen piecemeal, well, we can make a plan, for example, in the next fifteen years, Japan, North Korea, and Vietnam will marry into China six million, no, no less than eight million! Of course, this plan should be kept secret, after all, they are not stupid, if they really know, we want to hollow out their women, I'm afraid they won't be happy either! In the future, I will find an opportunity to talk to them, and talk about this intermarriage first...... Well, the free marriage treaty, and then let's do it well, and then hollow them out little by little......"
Looking at the lord in surprise, Zhang Liangji couldn't believe what he said, and said after a while.
"This ...... Is this a bit of a misconduct? ”
"What's wrong? Is it not in line with the way of the inner king and the outer right? ”
Asking rhetorically, Zhu Yifeng shook his head and sneered.
"What we have to see is that there are tens of millions of women in China who have no women to marry, and these people are the biggest destabilizing factor, and if we don't solve this problem now, then this problem may solve us in the future. Shi Qing, you remember, when we deal with foreigners, one of the core is "interests first", our interests come first, as for the life or death of foreigners, it is my business. Who cares about the life or death of foreigners, the country is not closed, get out first! ”
