(Thank you for the precious monthly ticket of the imperial sunset world, thank you for floating in Europe, fgxr2011, not left or right to choose to take the middle route of the reward, thank you, the Spring Festival is about to be celebrated, here to give readers a big early year, I wish readers a happy year of the horse, all the best.) ）

I don't know what the reason is, although in the first year of Chongzhen, there were a lot of immigrants in the imperial court, but the administrative division of Taiwan has not been very important, and this is the case in history.

During the Southern Song Dynasty, Taiwan was under the jurisdiction of Jinjiang County, Fujian Road, and in the Yuan Dynasty, the imperial court set up an inspection department in Taiwan, but at that time, the imperial court valued the Penghu Islands, and Taiwan was under the jurisdiction of Tong'an County, Quanzhou Prefecture, Fujian Xingzhongshu Province.

In the Ming Dynasty, the situation did not change much, in the early Ming Dynasty, because of the need for conquest, all the people of Taiwan Island were relocated to live in Zhangzhou and Quanzhou coastal areas of Fujian, the imperial court abolished the Taiwan Inspection Division, during the Yongle period, the setting of the Inspection Division was restored, and some Taiwanese people also migrated back, and in the Wanli period, the Dutch and the Spaniards occupied Taiwan, and the imperial court rarely noticed this place, and all the administrative divisions did not change.

In the final analysis, this is the imperial court's contempt for Taiwan, believing that Taiwan Island, far away from the mainland, is just a wild land, which is not worth investing much energy in construction, and the indigenous people there are not yet civilized, and in the eyes of many imperial court adults, they are just like primitive people.

Su Tiancheng is very aware of the importance of administrative divisions.

Whether or not the administrative division of a place is set up is reasonable, which directly affects the development of the place, and if the division is reasonable, the government can exercise jurisdiction over it well and let the people accept education. It can also promote economic development, and unreasonable zoning will waste a lot of resources and increase the burden on the people.

So, before leaving Taiwan, Su Tiancheng needs to do something. It is to plan Taiwan's zoning.

Because of the cruel oppression of the Dutch and the Spaniards, coupled with a period of conquest, the life of the people of Taiwan is very difficult, and the population is not very large. It is still very desolate, far from what the island of Taiwan will look like hundreds of years later.

The 20,000 soldiers of the Jiangning Battalion who came to Taiwan all have to stay in Taiwan, and the families of these soldiers will also come to Taiwan in a short time. According to Su Tiancheng's estimates, at least about 200,000 people will be immigrated. When you come to Taiwan, you need to do a good job of zoning, set up Fuzhou County, and establish a city in the shortest possible time to start managing Taiwan in an orderly manner. Let Taiwan begin to develop rapidly.

Chichicheng, the governor's palace of Song Ke, has been turned into a temporary command center for the Jiangning battalion.

Su Tiancheng, Qu Qingze, Wang Dazhi, Song Sijun and others are all here, in front of them. It is a huge sand table, and all the topography of Taiwan, including the Penghu Islands.

The sand table cannot cover all the terrain and landforms of Taiwan, and it can only be roughly displayed, which is not much different from the map.

Su Tiancheng took great pains to set up Taiwan's divisions, and his initial plan was to set up Taiwan as a province, but it would not be set up in accordance with other provinces under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and would not set up so many official posts, and Taiwan Province would set up one governor, not three divisions, and the governor would be the supreme governor of Taiwan, and he would be fully responsible for military and civil affairs, and set up a governor's yamen, and the number of all officials would be controlled within 20 people, which would be divided into two aspects: military and civil.

Under the governor, three prefectures, three prefectures and ten counties were established.

The three blockades are Taipei Prefecture, Taichung Prefecture and Tainan Prefecture, and the governor's yamen is set up in Tainan Prefecture.

The three prefectures are Keelung, Chiayi and Kaohsiung, of which Keelung is directly under the jurisdiction of Taipei Prefecture, and Chiayi Prefecture and Kaohsiung Prefecture are under the jurisdiction of Tainan Prefecture.

The ten counties are Penghu County, Hualien County, Pingtung County, Yunlin County, Nantou County, Changhua County, Miaoli County, Taoyuan County, Yilan County and Hsinchu County.

For example, Taipei County is not set up under Taipei Prefecture, and the prefect's yamen is directly responsible for all matters, while the rest of Taichung Prefecture, Tainan Prefecture, Keelung Prefecture, Chiayi Prefecture and Kaohsiung Prefecture are all set up in this way, and the purpose of this setting is to minimize the number of officials and reduce the burden.

As for the heartland of Taiwan, in Tainan Province, this is also the result of Su Tiancheng's careful thinking.

A few hundred years later, the center of Taiwan, including the political center, is mostly in Taipei, for what will form such a situation, Su Tiancheng is not very clear, but from the current situation, the most closely related to Fujian is still the Tainan region, the location of the Penghu Islands is even more important, can directly control the entire Taiwan Strait, control the sea lanes, whether it is Zheng Zhilong, the Dutch or the Spaniards, the focus is also on Tainan, more or less construction over the years, most of them are in Tainan, from this reality, The center is still in Tainan.

Of course, the setting of zoning indicates a large amount of investment, the construction of cities, and the clarification of the places under the jurisdiction of each county, including the reclamation of cultivated land, the development of commerce and trade, etc., too many things are made from scratch.

Even the three most important cities, Tainan Prefecture, Taichung Prefecture and Taipei Prefecture, except for Tainan Prefecture, which are slightly more similar, the scale of Taichung Prefecture and Taipei Prefecture is not even comparable to some market towns under the jurisdiction of Gyeonggi County.

The gap is huge, which also means that in the next few years, Taiwan's construction task will be extremely arduous and will require a lot of investment.

Su Tiancheng pointed to the sand table and talked eloquently, and quickly explained the entire division of Taiwan.

In this process, Qu Qingze, Wang Dazhi and Song Sijun didn't say a word, they felt dizzy, and they couldn't figure out why Su Tiancheng was so familiar with the situation in Taiwan, of course, before attacking Taiwan, Su Tiancheng looked at a lot of intelligence, including the map of Taiwan, they could only think that it was estimated that a long time ago, all the affairs of Taiwan entered Su Tiancheng's mind, and Su Tiancheng was thinking about it seriously.

Qu Qingze and Song Sijun are clear about Su Tiancheng's thoughts, but Su Tiancheng can say Taiwan's division so clearly and set up three prefectures, three states and ten counties, which is also something they didn't expect.

Song Sijun was touched the most, just landed on the island of Taiwan, because the responsibilities on his shoulders are different, Song Sijun pays attention to all the situations he sees, but the more he looks at it, the more he feels cold, to say that the previous Shaanxi, the situation is bad enough, but compared to Taiwan, it is very good, even Yan'an Mansion, which has encountered the most wars, is also a hundred times stronger than Chichicheng, and it is too difficult to develop a business in such a place, and Su Tiancheng's requirements are different.

Su Tiancheng is asking for the construction of Taiwan, not to plunder the wealth here, the Dutch and the Spaniards have different purposes, they just want to plunder here, they don't care whether this is development or not, so Song Sijun to develop commerce and trade here is to make this place prosperous, more people, a bumper grain harvest, and the people's life is better.

As Song Sijun, who has been in business for many years and then participated in management, under normal circumstances, he would not complain, but in the face of the situation in Taiwan, he secretly complained, if it was possible, he would think about going to Dengzhou no matter what.

But after Su Tiancheng put forward his opinion on Taiwan's zoning, Song Sijun had a bottom in his heart.

It turns out that Su Tiancheng has long considered it, according to such a division, as long as there is enough material support, Taiwan's development is very fast, a large number of cities need to be built, which requires labor, after the city is built, a large part of the labor has been paid, enough to maintain the life of the family, the family of the Jiangning battalion soldiers, after coming here, can bring the skills of grain planting here, once the county seat of Fuzhou is built, the government can effectively govern, here will be able to attract a large number of people, Maybe when you build a city, you can attract a lot of people.

More people means consumption, it means the circulation of silver, and it means that commerce and trade can be on a normal track of development.

After going through so much, especially in Shaanxi, Anningbao and Jingbian, Song Sijun knew that starting from scratch, as long as he could grasp the direction well, the construction results would be much better than those places with a strong foundation.

That is, after Su Tiancheng expressed his opinion on Taiwan's administrative division, Song Sijun also made up his mind to stay in Taiwan and build here well, not to mention Su Tiancheng's purpose, he knew the Tao.

After clarifying Taiwan's division, Su Tiancheng specially explained to Wang Dazhi.

Wang Dazhi is his most trusted confidant, and the relationship between the two is different, so Su Tiancheng is completely at ease.

Su Tiancheng told Wang Dazhi very clearly that he must build Taiwan well, this is the place to stand in the future, and to build Taiwan well, that is, to build his own homeland, he will suggest to the imperial court that Wang Dazhi be the governor of Taiwan Province, as for the officials of the three prefectures, three prefectures and ten counties under his jurisdiction, except for the prefect, the governor and the county governors, the rest of Wang Dazhi and Song Sijun discussed and were fully equipped, the number of officials must be controlled, and the personnel were selected from the Jiangning battalion.

Wang Dazhi only understood the meaning at this time, all along, he was also a little worried, he had been following Su Tiancheng's side for a long time, the suspicion of the imperial court, he was clearer, and he also thought that there might be trouble in the future, but he didn't expect that Su Tiancheng had already made a plan, and the burden of construction fell on his head.

Wang Dazhi accepted the task happily, this is a kind of trust that cannot be said in words, and Su Tiancheng completely entrusted him with the things behind him.

It took about ten days for Su Tiancheng to look at the entire island of Taiwan, and roughly determined the location of the county seat in Fuzhou.

At the end of March, Su Tiancheng could not delay, and the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion were also ready, under the leadership of Xiong Zijian, Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Chenggong and others, they were going to start conquering Luzon and Nanyang.

On 30 March, Su Tiancheng left Taiwan and rushed to Dengzhou, and at this time, a large number of merchant ships from Dengzhou began to go to Taiwan. (To be continued......)
