Although Taiwan's geographical location is very important, it is not the most important, for Zheng Chenggong, the Chinese mainland is the foundation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Without the Chinese mainland, it is impossible to count on Taiwan alone to make China rise again, nor can it dominate the world.

This attack on Taiwan, Zheng Chenggong was forced to push forward under the greatest pressure.

That's it, Zheng Chenggong can't stay in Taiwan for a long time, regardless of the mainland of China.

I saw that except for some sporadic rebellion, the rest of the island of Taiwan was basically stable.

Zheng Chenggong appointed Chen Yonghua as the governor of Taiwan, Shi Lang as the governor of Taiwan, and Liu Guoxuan as the commander-in-chief of Taiwan, leading 5,000 army forces, 3,000 naval troops, three former general-level ships, eight lock ships, and 30 fortune ships to garrison.

Zheng Chenggong himself took the rest of his men and returned to Nanjing by boat.

As soon as Zheng Chenggong returned to Nanjing, he hadn't even entered his home.

At the city gate, a large number of subordinates came out, all of them rushed forward to hand over their handbooks, and shouted one after another: "General Tai, the lower officials have important things to do!" ”

Zheng Chenggong looked at it and was dumbfounded.

I've only been out for two months, so it's been like this.

Zeng Ying, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, saw that there was something unusual, and scolded a few times, which ended the chaotic situation.

The civil and military subordinates all felt that they were a little out of shape, so they retreated one after another.

To Zheng Chenggong's surprise, without even waiting for a minute, Feng Chengshi, who has always been steady and hardworking, jumped out first.

Feng Chengshi also glanced at the ministers around him fiercely, which means that whoever dares to talk to me again, I will be in a hurry with whomever I want.

Feng Chengshi arched his hand towards Zheng Chenggong and said, "General! The subordinates are shallow in their studies and have high expectations for the master. I can't afford to hold the position of secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and I ask the general to allow me to abdicate and make way for Xian! ”

When Zheng Chenggong heard this, he was dumbfounded!

What happened when I was away?

Is his Ministry of Industry going to resign?

Zheng Chenggong hurriedly said: "Chengshi, since you have been in charge of the Ministry of Works, that achievement is obvious to all!" Why is it said that he is shallow and unable to take responsibility? What happened to make you want to quit? ”

Feng Chengshi raised his head when he heard it and said, "General, how could Chengshi have ever thought of leaving the general?" The general took Chengshi very seriously, and the lower officials were very grateful. It's just that now the task assigned by the general is really unable to be completed. Therefore, the lower officials wanted to give up their positions and let the general choose another capable person to appoint him! ”

The more Zheng Chenggong listened, the more confused he became, what task did he appoint that made him feel so difficult?

Zheng Chenggong hurriedly asked: "Chengshi, what kind of task is it, how difficult is it for you?" Come on! ”

Feng Chengshi said: "General, the official road you planned to build from Nanjing to Zhangzhou is already a huge project, as well as water conservancy projects and port construction planned in various places, and now you are adding a large-scale construction in Taiwan, and the lower officials really can't complete it as planned." Please also ask the general to choose another virtuous man! ”

Daming has official roads, but since the beginning of Chongzhen, Daming has no money to maintain official roads.

After years of exposure to the sun and rain, the wind and rain have long been in tatters!

But even so, it is already good in the Ming Dynasty, and it is even worse in other places, many roads are simply what Lu Xun said, there is no road in the world, and there is a road if people walk more.

When it is windy and rainy, it is difficult for carriages and horses to travel, which is not conducive to the exchange of economic personnel, not to mention the rule and management of oneself.

Therefore, since the recovery of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Zheng Chenggong ordered the Ministry of Industry to build new official roads.

At the beginning, the Ministry of Industry planned the route, and the Ministry of Household also took out the money, but as Zheng Chenggong planned more and more sieges, the construction of the official road was delayed. For more than two years, it was only built from Nanjing to Ningde.

There is still a long way from Ningde to Zhangzhou that has not been repaired.

Zheng Chenggong thought about it, it seems that it is also the same, and the tasks he has assigned to the Ministry of Industry in the past few years seem to be a bit too much.

Zheng Chenggong said a little short of breath: "Chengshi, in order to help you complete the task, I have sent a lot of indigenous laborers!" ”

When Feng Chengshi heard this, he immediately shouted: "General, the indigenous labor force you sent is far from enough!" I've applied to you many times before, hoping to catch more natives, the more the better! ”

"Why do you need so much?" Zheng Chenggong was a little surprised when he heard Feng Chengshi say this.

The Fuwei Dart Bureau captured 50,000 natives last year, so why is it in short supply now.

Although Zheng Chenggong also knows that some of the methods used by indigenous people have a very dark side, it will not be so big at once.

At this time, Wang Zhongxiao, the head of the household department, stood up and explained: "General, most of the two places of Luzon and Taiwan are still barren land, and there is a great need for personnel to reclaim and hoard land, and at the same time, the construction of roads in various regions, as well as the port, factory, water conservancy and other projects that you ordered to build before, also need a lot of manpower. If so many projects are to be built, and the quality and time required by the Ministry of Industry are met, the demand is huge. Moreover, in order to catch up with the schedule, the officials have lost a lot of indigenous people in these projects. In the first half of the year, in order to complete the construction of the road from Jinhua to Ningde, almost thousands of indigenous people were lost for various reasons. The demand for indigenous slaves was far from sufficient! ”

When Zheng Chenggong heard Wang Zhongxiao's report, thousands of lives disappeared from the data without even a sound.

Zheng Chenggong can fully imagine the final fate of those natives, even if the miserable lives of those black factories, black coal kilns and other workers can imagine the fate of these natives.

And these natives are even more cruel than those people, at least those people can still have food and clothing, but these natives are afraid that they don't have any of these.

There were still a few old bachelors who had some doubts about the use of natives before, but now the officials of the Great Yuan are silent about this kind of thing, and it is not okay not to be silent!

Otherwise, once anyone raises an objection, the officials of the Ministry of Industry hurriedly shouted, Since this is the case, then you go and let the people of the Ming Dynasty serve as conscription!

Let's see if that official will be pointed at the backbone by the people and scold the ancestors eighteen!

Although the use of indigenous people to build the project was proposed by himself and implemented by force, even if he thought that thousands of people had died because of himself, Zheng Chenggong still felt a little uncomfortable. After all, it's human life, not just data.

Zheng Chenggong was inexplicably sad, but after walking through the battle like a mountain of blood and knives, he quickly got rid of this mood.

He can now be said to be the pillar of the entire Zheng family group, and once he falls, there is no hope of driving away the Tartars.

For the sake of the Zheng Family Group, for the sake of Huaxia, I must go down, even if it is hell, I must go down.

Zheng Chenggong eased up, thinking that in order to rush the project, he also knew which officials were ruthless in using the methods and means of the natives, but you can't exhaust them like this, at least you have to wait until the completion of these projects in Dayuan, you can do this!

Otherwise, those who are caught by the snatching team will not be able to keep up with your consumption, and in the future, there will not be enough natives, so what will you use to build.

Zheng Chenggong rubbed his temples with his hand and said, "Chengshi! Don't worry, I promise you that you won't start new projects in the past few years. I will also forgive the original siege period for a few years, and I will not blame you for this. For the past, General Ben apologized to you for not having a realistic goal, and I hope that Chengshi can forgive Mingyan, and don't leave Mingyan. ”

This time, Feng Chengshi couldn't stand it, then Feng Chengshi was a real person.

saw Zheng Chenggong apologize to himself. Feng Chengshi was moved to forget most of his grievances at that time, and hurriedly said: "General, don't do this." You're going to kill me. It's all caused by the incompetence of the lower officials, and the general is asked to punish the crime! ”

Zheng Chenggong said with a smile: "There is nothing wrong with Chengshi, but those officials of the Ministry of Industry will use indigenous people leisurely in the future." Adding some survivability measures to some extent, it is not possible to wear down like this. There are so many places where indigenous people need to be used. What's more, in the future, after we defeat the Tartars and restore our Dahan rivers and mountains, the amount of construction that needs to be built is not huge, can we still do this? Explain it to the people in the Ministry of Engineering yourself! ”

Feng Chengshi smiled bitterly and said, "General, this is all their subordinates showing mercy. You don't know, when we first caught the natives, the methods of these people were really inhumane, and hundreds of people died almost every day. If it weren't for the fact that the loss of the aborigines is too great now, and the speed of the capture can't keep up, I'm afraid there will be no aborigines left now. ”

Zheng Chenggong couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, "I will send someone to arrest the natives again, but you also have to ask those officials to increase the survival measures of those people!" ”

"Yes."

Feng Chengshi was not ready to resign, but just wanted to retreat and advance, so that Zheng Chenggong could understand the difficulties of the Ministry of Industry.

With Zheng Chenggong's apology, Feng Chengshi saw it for a long time and did not mention his resignation again. (To be continued.) )
