There was a rush of footsteps at the door, and then I saw Zhu Jishi's figure appear at the door of the main hall, followed by Han Siluo, Wang Dehu, Ren Yijiang and other senior generals in the military. It was probably a few people who had a small meeting before they hurried over. Zhu Jishi didn't know if he was deliberately disguised at this time, with an angry look on his face, and he said something to the generals around him from time to time. The expressions on the faces of all the people who stood up and waited also changed rapidly, and no matter how good they were smiling just now, they all became solemn at this moment, and some of them also showed expressions of righteous indignation. Zhu Jishi has been an emperor or king for almost 20 years, and his power has been achieved. No matter whether it is the government or the opposition, no one dares to disagree with him. In other words, the comrades who dare to disagree with Emperor Zhu are still working and studying in Europe!

"Long live the emperor......"

Everyone bowed and saluted, and Zhu Jishi smiled and beckoned, motioning for everyone to sit down - Emperor Zhu's current style has gradually "modernized". Although it has a rather traditional name, it is actually a conference room. The civil and military officials all sat in meetings with the emperor Lao Tzu. The etiquette of kneeling is also becoming less and less adopted, and most of the time bowing is sufficient.

Zhu Jishi sat down on the main seat at the top of a rectangular conference table, and said with a smile: "Pan Qingjian of Annan has come to deceive us again, and there are a lot of good words on the seal of the minister, but there is no big saying that although there are three households, the Ming will be more than the death." But who doesn't know their thoughts? Vietnam was the land of China in ancient times, and it was only ** out in the Song Dynasty, and when they were in the Li Dynasty, they raised troops to the Northern Expedition. Hundreds of thousands of people were slaughtered in the three prefectures of Qin, Lian and Yong. What a great martial art! It's time for Lai Li to rise. Their Vietnamese did not obey our Ming Dynasty and rebelled for ten years, and finally forced Emperor Xuanzong to withdraw his troops. What kind of deference do such unruly people pretend to be in front of me? ”

These words are equivalent to a death sentence for Annan, who has just obtained **! However, the ministers of civil and military affairs present here had already been mentally prepared. Emperor Zhu has never revealed even a little bit of good impression of the people of Annan, and he is determined to destroy his country and his clan!

However, Zuo Zongtang, the left minister of the cabinet, just shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the current Annan, including the territory around Phnom Penh, which originally belonged to Zhenla, has a population of about 4 million, of which Ding Zhuang is no less than 800,000. After the transfer of power by the French. The Annan court began to increase its troops like crazy, claiming to raise an army of 500,000. If you really want to destroy his country and his people, I am afraid that it will be protracted and there will be heavy casualties, and this military expenditure will not be enough if there is no 30 or 40 million. ”

He was embarrassed, thanks to the North American war and large-scale construction in the past two years, the financial income of the Ming court has grown rapidly, and in the past 16 years of recovery, only the financial revenue of the central level has exceeded 250 million silver dollars. Combined with local revenues, it exceeded 450 million silver dollars. Compared to the Manchu Qing Daoguang years, it has increased tenfold! However, the growth of Daming's fiscal revenue has always been unable to catch up with the speed of spending, and it has been 16 years since its recovery. Because of the reason that compulsory education began to be promoted throughout the country and support the North American war, the financial deficit of the Ming court was also as high as 50 million yuan. originally planned to save some flowers in the seventeenth year of recovery, but he didn't expect Emperor Zhu to think about using troops against Annan again.

Zhu Jishi didn't care much, and said with a smile: "If the money is not enough to spend, let's make up more deficits, this year's financial income should always exceed 500 million, even if there is a deficit of 50 million, it is not too much, and this bond can still be issued." It is a good deal to exchange these 50 million for a Nanjiaozhou province. Not to mention anything else, there are tens of millions of acres of cultivated land that can be reclaimed in the Jiulong River Plain alone, and one acre of land is not worth a silver dollar? He paused, and then said: "And if we don't need troops this year, if we delay it, the Annan people will only be more prepared, and this battle will only be more difficult to fight!" ”

Zhu Jishi stood up and paced as he spoke, and he was really in high spirits. "Little Annan has been a thorn in the coffin for more than a thousand years, the Song Dynasty has suffered from them, the Mongols have suffered from them, our Ming Dynasty has also suffered from them, and the pseudo-Qing Dynasty has also suffered from Annan! If not, this thorn will end here, and I am determined to take advantage of the peak of the Ming Dynasty's military strength to eradicate it in one fell swoop! ”

Zuo Zongtang frowned slightly, "Is the emperor going to slaughter his race?" That's millions of people, and I'm afraid it will have a negative impact both internationally and locally. ”

What really embarrassed Zuo Zongtang was the three or four million Vietnamese. The slaughter will not leave any trouble, but the Ming Dynasty is now one of the three great powers, and is still seeking the position of the leader of Asia, so it is necessary to pay attention to the international influence. If such a degrading thing is done, what will the natives of other parts of the South Seas think? What will Indian Ah San think? What will the true theological believers in Central Asia think? And what will the Mongols, Koreans, Japanese, and Ryukyuan people who have begun to integrate into Chinese civilization think?

Zhu Jishi stopped, his eyes also showed a bit of solemnity, no matter how he said it, he was a three-good young man who had been educated by the party for many years in later generations, and naturally knew that national issues were major issues, and if they were not handled well, they might cause turmoil and division in the country. The GCD of later generations did an excellent job in this regard, and both the Soviet GCD and the Yugoslav GCD handled the domestic national issue very well.

"Of course I won't slaughter their people." Zhu Jishi waved his hand and said in a solemn tone, "I have always advocated protection for the weak clan. Zuo Xiang, when have you ever seen me slaughter a clan? ”

Zuo Zongtang thought for a while, sighed, nodded and said: "For the barbarian people, they should still focus on education, and they really don't respect the people ......who are educated."

Zhu Jishi waved his hand and interrupted Zuo Zongtang and said: "Those who really don't respect education, as long as they don't openly oppose the Ming Dynasty, they should also protect their right to survive." I am prepared to implement the policy of national integration and the method of national protection at the same time. For those who are willing to integrate into China, they will be treated equally, and those who are unwilling to integrate into China will also be designated as autonomous territories for them to live in, and ethnic autonomy will be implemented within the autonomous territory, and the imperial court will not interfere in principle. As for the people of Annam, I intend to do so, and never let their race perish. ”

"The emperor is a benevolent monarch." Zuo Zongtang had an admiring expression on his face, but he thought in his heart: "This Dominion can't be the Indian reservation of the New World, right?" Find a backcountry and enclose the Indians, and leave them to fend for themselves, and the number of Indians will be reduced and fewer......"

Zhu Jishi nodded, "Since Prime Minister Zuo also approves, then my Ming Dynasty's national autonomy will start from Annan!" After the capture of the land, the people of Annam will be screened immediately, and anyone who has Chinese blood or is really willing to be a citizen of the Ming Dynasty can obtain Ming citizenship. However, they can no longer live in Annam, and when they are scattered and settled in various places, over time, they will be integrated with our Chinese race, which is the method of ethnic integration. Those who do not have Chinese blood and do not want to be the subjects of the Ming Dynasty will all move to live in the Annam National Autonomous Territory, which is the law of national protection and autonomy. The two laws are carried out at the same time, and those who are willing to integrate into China are all Chinese people, and those who are not willing to integrate into China can also get the right of autonomy and self-government, which is the best of both worlds.

As for the Annam National Protection Leader, Zuo Xiang, and Broken Army, where do you think it is better? ”

"Or Kamchatka?" Han Si and Han Dashuai opened his mouth and said. Similar to Kamchatka, there are still many places in the Ming Dynasty, all of which are vast and sparsely populated and rich in resources......

"Kamchatka...... Place is nice, just too far away. Zhu Jishi shook his head, he estimated that there would always be millions of Annamites who were unwilling to integrate into China, and if they were to be transported to Kamchatka, the cost of the road would be too great. Let's include the area south of Cardamom Hill in Phnom Penh, the plains around Kampong Son Bay, and Phu Quoc Island. In addition, the people of the Dominion have the opportunity to apply to become Ming citizens once a year and leave the Dominion forever. I will give another Duke of Annan to govern this autonomous territory, and if Pan Qingjian is willing to take refuge in the Ming Dynasty, the position of Duke of Annan will be given to him.
