Chapter 510: Reigning in the World
Jinshan City. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Yin people were originally the people of China, and they avoided overseas at the time of war, and opened up the wilderness, so that the no-man's land of Yinzhou has since become fertile land.
Today, Yang Mude, the chief of the Yin tribe, is the Marquis of the Ming Dynasty, and his land is the country of Chengcheng.
Yang Sisheng, the chief of the Fengyin tribe, is the naturalized marquis of the Ming Dynasty, and his land is a naturalized country!
……”
Outside the city, outside a newly built palace hall, an official held the holy decree with a solemn face, and kneeling in front of the steps at his feet were a dozen Indians dressed in Ming costumes, who were lying there in fear and did not dare to raise their heads, because a huge sound was coming above their heads, a golden god was suspended in the sky, two huge wings spread behind his back, and his sword stood majestically in both hands, radiating dazzling brilliance in the sun.
Well, Emperor Yang is pretending to be forced again.
However, this trick is very effective.
If the miracles he had previously circulated among the Indians were just legends, now there is no doubt that not only the dozen or so tribal chiefs, but all the Indians in and outside the city of Jinshan knelt on the ground with religious devotion, reciting the teachings of the holy oracle, and showing their loyalty to their gods.
The territory of the dozen or so tribal chieftains he sealed ranged from north to south, basically including all the tribes west of the Rocky Mountains, and the farthest chieftaincy was in the area of Vancouver in the original history, and they themselves had become believers in the Holy Religion after more than ten years of trade with the Ming Dynasty and the infiltration of the Holy Religion. Because more and more Indians have come to Daming in recent years, and their envy of the prosperity of the kingdom ruled by the god emperor, the spread of the Holy Religion among the Indians has been very smooth, and now they have begun to penetrate to the east of the Rocky Mountains. And these people were included in the foreign domain system of the Ming Dynasty, which also included the entire west of the Rocky Mountains into the territory of the Ming Dynasty, of course, there are also many non-religious tribes and European colonists in this land, and it is the duty of these vassals to solve these people.
It's nothing more than fighting.
This land directly belongs to Vinh Binh Province, that is, the coast of Jinshan Bay, and there is also the area around the original Sacramento, where the second city of Vinh Binh Province has been established at this time, and the city is mainly used for gold panning, and large-scale reclamation of cotton has also begun.
"It's still too small."
After the end of the edict, after Emperor Yang landed, looking at the Indians who were celebrating to become a subject of the Ming Dynasty, Han Zong, the governor of Yongping Province of the Ming Dynasty, said with emotion.
Over the years, there have been less than 100,000 Chinese immigrants here, and this is thanks to the temptation of gold mines, otherwise there are fewer immigrants, compared with another remote colony, Jinzhou, the gap is quite obvious, you must know that the number of people in Jinzhou has exceeded one million, really speaking of distance, the voyage from Shanghai Port to Jinshan is actually the same as to the main colony of Jinzhou.
"It's not that there are too few immigrants, but that the population of my Ming Dynasty is too small, if it is not 300 million but 3 billion, then without any attraction, the Chinese people will naturally fill every land in this world."
Yang Feng said.
This problem really can't be solved, after all, the current population of 300 million is already more than 40 per 1,000 growth rate, and there is also the result of continuous absorption from the outside, 3 billion is still too far away, it is estimated that he can exceed 1 billion in his lifetime is already very good, with a trace of melancholy His Majesty the Emperor left Jinshan to continue his journey south, half a month later the Great Eastern sailed into the royal direct Hongwu City, the city named after the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty is Panama City.
"Your Majesty, the biggest problem right now is the epidemic."
On a construction site that had just begun, an official cautiously said to His Majesty the Emperor.
This is the construction site of the Hongwu Canal, that is, the Panama Canal, which was put into construction as quickly as possible, hundreds of thousands of workers and slaves were sent to this hot and humid land to dig a canal connecting the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, but in the first year of construction, thousands of people died of illness, and it is clear that the environment here is too far from the Suez Canal, which has dug more than half of it at this time, and the dead people have not been here for more than a year.
"Mosquitoes, the key is mosquitoes!"
Yang Feng then remembered that he had forgotten about yellow fever, which was something that bankrupted the French back then, and tens of thousands of French people were killed here by mosquitoes.
Of course, it can't be said that he forgot.
The main reason is that the workers here are black slaves and Japanese slaves, and the life or death of these people has never been a matter for him to consider.
"Get more highly toxic pesticides, clean the construction area first, basically reduce the mortality rate, as for the dead people, then die, go back and let West Africa send a few more ships of slaves, in short, we must ensure the smooth construction of the construction, no matter how many people die, it must be built within fifteen years."
Yang Feng continued.
"Your Honor!"
The official hurriedly said.
At this moment a carriage came from the front.
The highway connecting Hongwu City and Chongzhen City on the other side has been completed, and a railway will be built immediately after the plan, after all, in addition to the canal, the land transportation on this land must also be improved, and even there is a larger-scale railway construction in the planning, the Zhongyinzhou royal direct territory is not just a Hongwu City, here is the entire vast colony from Guatemala to northern Colombia in the original history, in fact, there are merchants who have begun to transport goods to the Caribbean Sea by land transportation.
"Your Majesty, this is a small gift prepared by the ministers for Your Majesty."
The official hurriedly said with a smile.
"Yes, you have a heart!"
Yang Feng said with satisfaction.
Then the carriages passed in front of him, and the hapless blue macaws, sloths, tiger cats, and other American pets in the carriages looked at him with desperate eyes, and then rushed to the harbor to board the ship and begin their long journey. His Majesty the Emperor likes rare birds and beasts all over the world, and now the favorite thing for the Ming colonists everywhere to do is to get him this, after all, he has no other pursuits now, rare treasures are piled up in the palace, even the Peacock Throne is in the palace, what jewels can jewel the three huge diamonds? Women are not worth mentioning, and these rare birds and beasts can still make him feel a little novel, so now he basically gives gifts to the emperor this. He even raised a large flock of dodos in the palace zoo in Nanjing, which was supposed to be extinct in Mauritius, but after the Ming Dynasty took over Mauritius, the garrison there mobilized the local people to find a few more for him, and now they have been bred and almost used as ducks.
The last thing to appear is not a horse-drawn carriage, but a steam cart with black smoke in tow, and a huge steel cage with a huge green anaconda in it.
"Your Majesty, the name of this thing is Anaconda, and it is said that our expedition team once killed a tree more than five zhang long in the rainforest."
The official saw that the emperor was very interested in this terrifying giant beast, and hurriedly stepped forward to make an introduction, and at the same time, the giant python weighing hundreds of pounds and more than six meters in length, it was estimated that it was also because of the more violent temper of tossing all the way, so he suddenly pounced forward, and then slammed into the steel cage, the cage was violently shaken, and the official was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated.
"Open the cage!"
Emperor Yang said suddenly.
The two soldiers hurriedly stepped forward, and at the same time, the official and the people around him quickly retreated, and the moment the cage door was opened, the giant python pounced out like lightning, and Yang Feng, who was standing in front of the cage door, smashed his arm downward, as if he was hit by a giant hammer, and the unlucky green anaconda was smashed to the ground at once, and then convulsed a few times and retracted back into the cage with difficulty, as if he had suffered great psychological trauma, curled up inside and looked out with fearful eyes.
"Hmph, that's it!"
Yang Feng said disdainfully.
"A python is a python after all, and it is just a small worm in front of His Majesty."
The official hurriedly said.
"Well said, reward you with an earl!"
Yang Feng patted him on the shoulder and said.
The female attendant beside him hurriedly wrote it down, and the official lay down to thank him, Yang Feng raised his head and looked around, and the black slaves and Japanese slaves who peeked trembled and immediately lowered their heads and began to work hard.
The poor green anaconda was pulled away like this, and soon it will be loaded on the Vostok, where there is a special animal cabin, as for whether they can live to complete the rest of the journey with His Majesty the Emperor, this can only be said to be fate, especially since these animals are tropical, and His Majesty the Emperor will go to the Antarctic Circle next, but in the future they will definitely have more companions to join, such as the gorillas in Africa, you must know that His Majesty the Emperor still has to go to Africa!
After inspecting Hongwu City, His Majesty the Emperor set off again for the next stop.
That is, Antarctica.
At this time, the Ming Dynasty is still only two small military bases in Antarctica, and they are not on the Antarctic continent, one is in the original historical South Georgia Islands, and the other is in the Falkland Islands, in fact, it cannot be called a military base, just two communication stations and supply stations, at this time, there have been Ming warships detouring through South America into the Atlantic, these two bases are to provide supplies for these ocean-going warships, after all, it is impossible for the Ming army to build supply bases in the ports of other countries, And the oil they use is not something that other countries can provide.
The inspection of these two places was very simple, and it did not delay for too long, the total number of people in the two places was less than 5,000, and they could not afford to serve His Majesty the Emperor, so it was said that the army accompanying them could empty their reserves.
After refueling and replenishing the other supplies by the merchant ships that had been ordered to arrive, His Majesty the Emperor, under the tearful eyes of the soldiers, took the wolves they had offered as gifts, and a flock of penguins boarded the Vostok and sailed west to the next stop, a journey that was long until a month later.
Daming Changning Province.
That is, the original historical New Zealand.
There is also only one city here, that is, the original historical Auckland, but the population is quite a lot, although it has only been established for less than ten years, but more than 20,000 people have moved here, mainly because the environment here is too good, and now even the rich people in the Ming Dynasty have spread the beautiful scenery here like an overseas fairy mountain, and the land here is also more suitable for cultivation than the neighboring East Golden State, and many of the originally planned to move to the East Golden State have been transferred here.
"W-what is this?"
Yang Feng looked at the gift given to him by the people of Changning in amazement.
Eight frighteningly large giant birds, and fat, ostriches are like little chickens in front of this thing, the tallest of them is actually nearly four meters tall, looking at him condescendingly with a posture of overlooking all beings, and none of the others is less than three meters tall, but their huge legs and almost vestigial wings also mean that they can't fly like ostriches.
"It's a moa!"
Emperor Yang then exclaimed.
"Your Majesty thanks for giving this thing a name."
The governor of Changning, who was accompanying him, said hurriedly.
Well, this is a moa, which is not extinct here at this time.
Emperor Yang approached with great interest, grabbed the largest moa feather, and suddenly jumped up and jumped straight onto the bird's back, which ran in terror, but the chain around its neck and the huge wooden stake behind it immediately pulled it in.
"Untie it!"
The emperor shouted.
The attendant behind hurriedly took off the iron ring on the stake behind, and the moa immediately jumped forward, Yang Feng grabbed the iron chain around her neck, like pulling the reins, and galloped forward like a horse on the back of this giant bird, like riding an ancient dinosaur. A large number of guards and garrisons quickly mounted their horses to follow, but although the speed of these horses was not inferior to that of moa, they were much worse in terms of terrain adaptability, and were soon thrown off on the undulating wood-covered wasteland, seeing that His Majesty the Emperor ran away alone, but soon a seaplane took off from the sea, and then flew into the sky to continue to follow His Majesty the Emperor.
Half an hour later, His Majesty the Emperor, who had been riding a moa for a ride, returned.
"Yes, I'll give you a count!"
He patted the governor on the shoulder with satisfaction.
He is now knighted as soon as he is happy, and there are tens of thousands of vassals in the Ming Dynasty.
"Also, send a message to the garrison of Zhaonan, let them go to the island of Madagascar to look for it, and see if they can find another bird bigger than this!"
Then he said to the squire.
He's talking about elephant birds.
Although this thing was theoretically extinct decades ago, this was estimated by later scientists, just like he was still able to find a flock of dodos, he really had to make great efforts, and it was estimated that he would be able to catch a few elephant birds from the wasteland of Madagascar, and in the future he was going to throw all these rare birds and beasts from all over the world into his divine domain that purified the Yellow River. Now northern Shaanxi has almost completely turned into a big forest, and even the amount of sediment in the Yellow River has dropped by more than half, but there are no trees and not enough level animals to qualify for the Divine Domain, and a large number of rare birds and beasts are stocked inside, which is the real Divine Domain.
