Chapter XVI Relocation Order
Dolgon slammed the book of the Shandong governor's performance to the ground.
These people dare to ignore the laws and discipline of the Qing Dynasty and go to sea without permission, they should all be killed!
The regent is angry, such people don't know the face of the world, and they defect to a pirate, they are really ignorant and stupid.
Dolgon turned his head to look at Chen Mingxia and said, "Some little fools, this king will not take it to heart. It's just that if you leave it alone like this, I'm afraid that it will cause panic among the people, and it will also bring a bad atmosphere, so you have to guard against it!
When Chen Mingxia heard this, he lowered his head and thought for a while before whispering: "Regent, the Zheng family has always been dominant at sea, if you want to completely eradicate the Zheng family, you need to defeat the Zheng family's sailors!" ”
Dolgon touched his bare forehead when he heard it, and said helplessly: "I also know that it's just that the Qing Dynasty is invincible on land, and it's just that no one knows how to fight in water, which will make the Zheng family rampant to this day." Chen Mingxia looked at Dolgon and said, "Regent, whether it is to eradicate the Zheng family or to protect the Jing Division, the Qing Dynasty needs a fleet. ”
Dorgon heard and asked, "What do you think?" “
Chen Mingxia said: "When a water village is set up in Tianjin, a person who is familiar with water warfare is appointed as the commander of the water division, and the eight banners of the Han Dynasty are transferred to the middle, and the eight banners of the Han are outside, and they are proficient in teaching and learning every day, so that they can compete with the Zheng family sailors in the future." “
Dorgon thought for a moment and asked, "Then who do you think can be the Admiral of the Marine?" “
Chen Mingxia arched his hand and said: "Kong Youde, the king of Sanshun, has experience in water warfare, and can be the admiral of the water division. “
Dolgon was silent when he heard this, and Chen Mingxia knew at a glance that the candidate he recommended was not Dolgon's favorite.
Chen Mingxia thought about it for a moment, and a cold sweat broke out behind his back.
Kong Youde is a Han Chinese. It's a second minister.
Dorgon was afraid that once he mastered the water master, he would have a different heart. After all, Tianjin is too close to Beijing, and it can be reached in one day.
Chen Mingxia understood. Busy said: "It's just that Kong Youde exterminated the rebels in Hunan, and he can't be easily mobilized." Dong Tai was not impeached as the admiral of the water division, Tian Xiong, and Zhang Tianlu paved the way. The regent thinks good! “
Hearing that it was Manren, Dolgon nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, Tong Tai will impeach him to serve as the Admiral of the Navy." Select soldiers who understand water nature from the green camp to form the Great Shimizu Division. ”
Seeing that the candidate he said finally satisfied Dolgon, Chen Mingxia breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Zheng Haikou's power can expand rapidly. Those who resist it to this day are actually in danger by the coastal people, and they will not be able to receive food, oil, iron and ship. If the coastal residents from Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places migrate into the interior, set up borders, arrange defenses, and destroy themselves without attacking.
When Dorgon heard of this plan, he said, "Yes. That's a good ploy. It can be done quickly! ”
The next day, on the Jinluan Palace. Chen Mingxia wrote: "The nails, iron, hemp, and oil used by Zheng Haikou Haibo, the flame nitrate used in artifacts (referring to artillery), and the genus of millet and silk. There are few places in Fujian. All the people of our coastal sea are out of trade, and transportation is helped. Now, if they move their people into the interior, they will be denounced as empty soil. Drawing the ground as the boundary, it is still strictly forbidden. The offender sat and died; The poor on the other island have been cut off from internal aid, and there is nothing to plunder. If a baby is weaned, it can starve to death. Its lord is deeply aware that the new ruler is now in power. ”
The officials of the Dolgon family, who had already been informed, hurriedly stood up and agreed, and soon this decree was promulgated with the "Prohibition of the Sea" stamped with the seal of Shunzhi.
Coastal residents of Beizhi, Shandong, Jiangnan and Zhejiang are all within the scope of sea migration.
The Qing court forcibly ordered the coastal residents of Jiangnan, Zhejiang, and Shandong to move 30~50 miles inward, and all merchant and civilian ships were not allowed to enter the sea.
Among them, Shandong has moved inward for 3 consecutive times.
In order to supervise, the Qing court sent four Manchu ministers to various provinces to supervise the execution, and violators were severely punished.
Among the four provinces, Shandong is the strictest. All the ships along the coast and the houses and belongings outside the boundary were burned, and all the castles were demolished.
Where the borders are moved, all houses and land are burned down or abandoned, and the boundaries are redrawn and encircled, and coastal residents are not allowed to go to sea. The people who moved to the border abandoned the land and real estate run by their ancestors, left their hometowns, fled in a hurry, and roothed in the wilderness, "hundreds of thousands of people died in the road".
At the same time, it is strictly forbidden for commercial and civilian ships to enter the sea without permission, and it is not allowed to use the products and goods of the mainland to conduct maritime trade.
The civil and military officials responsible for enforcing the ban shall be punished severely if they fail to investigate or pursue the prohibition; If the armor does not denounce it, he shall be put to death; Places along the coast where boats can be moored are strictly guarded everywhere, and no sails are allowed to enter the sea;
If a person disembarks from the sea, the derelict defense officer shall be punished by military law, and the superintendent shall be punished.
The implementation of the relocation order caused great damage to agriculture, fishing, handicrafts and overseas trade.
The people's livelihoods have been cut off and displaced, and there have been fierce anti-migration struggles during this period. The implementation of the order to move to the sea has not only brought serious consequences to the social economy, but also, because of the emptiness of the coastal areas, pirates have taken advantage of the opportunity to carry out their activities, resulting in even more unrest in the coastal society.
In the process of migration, the Manchus and the Green Battalion also took the opportunity to coerce and extort the land of the people, and later when there was a delay, they looted and burned it.
At the same time, a water village was set up in the port of Tianjin, and the company camped more than 20 miles along the coast, with the lucky boat as the city, and the small boats lived inside, which could be accessed, and the lights were lit at night, and the water surface of the center of the sky was red, and the 6,000 sailors selected from the various armies practiced day and night.
After training for more than a month, Dolgon, accompanied by Chen Mingxia, came to Tianjin to inspect the sailors.
Approaching the water village, Dolgon rode on his horse and looked at the military camp from afar, and said: "The mountains are close to the forest, looking forward to the front and back, there are doors in and out, and the progress and retreat are tortuous, yes, this water village is set up well." ”
Chen Mingxia said: "Tong Taiqi and Tian Xiong are both veterans in the army, so they naturally understand the affairs of this military camp. ”
Hearing this, Dolgon laughed and walked into the water village, and saw that there were twenty-four gates to the south, all of which were blessed ships and warships, listed as castles, and small boats in Tibet, with alleys and alleys, undulating and orderly.
Dolgon saw that the flagship of the Qing Dynasty's sailors was located in the center, with the banner of Shuai on it, and there were water villages on both sides, and there were thousands of bows and crossbows on the ship. The Qing soldiers on the ship were on the boat, enthusiastically showing bravery, bayoneting guns and swords.
The front and rear armies on the left and right, the flags are not mixed. There were more than 50 small boats, and the patrol police came and went. Standing on the platform, watching the training, I was overjoyed in my heart, thinking that I would win
Law; Teach and close the sail curtain, and return to the village in turn.
Dolgon rode on horseback and said in high spirits: "When this army is trained, it will be the day when Zheng Haikou is captured!" (To be continued.) )
