In the autumn of the third year of Chongzhen, Zhu Changhao finally led the water division and land division of the palace to go hand in hand, chasing the Jurchen Tartars to the north, and Huang Taiji also fled into the Arctic Circle. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Beizhili, Liaodong Xuanwei Division also began to station in Nuergan from Dengzhou Mansion, that is, the place on Temple Street, and the first commander of the Xuanwei Division was none other than Song Xiance.

According to Zhu Changhao's secret order to Song Xiance, after entering Temple Street, it is necessary to build a road from Temple Street, along the coastline of the Liaodong Plain, directly to the south, after passing through Shengjing, to reach the Ming Dynasty. To the southeast of the Xian Li Dynasty, a small fishing village called Axe Mountain was used as the terminal railway. In addition, it is necessary to build a railway from Beijing to Shengjing, after all, the territory of the Ming Dynasty is large, and if there is no convenient transportation, then the management of this empire is beyond the reach of the whip and stretched.

The people who built the railway, in the words of the government, for the long-term peace and stability of the Ming Dynasty and the punishment for their treason, should use 100,000 strong bannermen with a service period of ten years to build the Ming Dynasty's five-vertical and five-horizontal railway network.

To tell the truth, only these 100,000 flagmen who committed treason, it is not enough to build a railway, fortunately, there are many displaced people now, according to the current situation, the number of displaced people is not less than 10 million, that is to say, there is now one-twentieth of the population of the Ming Dynasty, and they are already struggling on the death line, Zhu Changhao feels that if these people are mobilized and have a certain amount of money and food every month, they will definitely burst out with great explosive power.

In the third year of Chongzhen's wax moon, Zhu Changhao took Liu Zheng, Yuan Chonghuan, Lao Dao, and the princess Liu Zilian, the prince of the palace, Zhu Guoyu, and the county lord Zhu Hibiscus, in the Forbidden City, and the emperor's nephew Chongzhen to celebrate the New Year together.

On the eve of leaving, Zhu Changhao had already sent an urgent royal order to Song Yingxing and Sun Yuanhua, asking them to set up a steel plant and a steam locomotive production base near Shenyang on the border of Liaodong after the beginning of spring, and prepare for the laying of railways in Liaodong directly to the vicinity of the Arctic Ocean in the coming year.

After the issuance of this royal decree, he also put forward a new task to Ma Maocai, Minister of Commerce of the Ming Dynasty, asking him to speed up the construction and commercial development of the southwest and northeast Asian regions.

Wang Zheng, the waiter of the Ministry of Industry, should cooperate with Ma Maocai and Qin Ruzhen, the waiter of the Ministry of Agriculture, to do a good job in the industrial layout, propose to let the machine produce goods, and then push more people to the town, if the town can not accommodate it, recruit into various workshops, as well as the construction of railways.

In addition, the political cabinet and the military cabinet should budget the funds for Chongzhen's various projects and activities for four years in these two months, and after the beginning of the spring, Zhu Changhao will go back to discuss with them, and then promulgate and implement them.

…………

After issuing eleven orders, Zhu Changhao finally felt at ease, after all, the big things have been arranged by himself, small things, then let the people of the political cabinet and the military cabinet discuss, his task in the past two months is to do a good job of socializing in the Beijing Division, and play with the white-faced, red-faced, and black-faced courtiers in the court, and by the way, dig up a few talented people to make some contributions to the future development of the Ming Dynasty.

On the fifth day of the lunar month, Zhu Changhao entered the Beijing Division again, and that night, he was invited by Chongzhen into the Baohe Palace, in the Baohe Palace, the uncle and nephew, as well as the daughters and children of both sides, had a harmonious family dinner.

During the banquet, Zhu Changhao and Chongzhen didn't care about the play between the children and their daughters, but got up and left the dinner table and went to the imperial study to discuss how to divide the jurisdiction of the recovery of Liaodong and the territory from Shengjing to the north to the Siberian Sea, a distance of more than 7,000 miles.

According to the Wanli period, the royal family in the whole map of the Kunyu of the world, Chongzhen was so excited that he didn't know what to say, according to the map of the Kunyu of the Wanguo and the road map of the expulsion of the Tartars, the far north is the sea, occupied by the vast glaciers, moss, and the four different (reindeer).

Chongzhen thought to himself, "I can't imagine that as the sixteenth emperor of the Ming Empire, when this society was swept away by internal and external troubles, he was able to expand his territory and once again create a territory quite a Ming Empire." ”

Chongzhen has no worries about Zhu Changhao's military action this time, after all, the Fifth Emperor Uncle also said that he will not be an emperor in this life.

The problem is that these places are really bitter cold now, not only the population is small, but the local crops are not too much, fortunately, there are many local coal mines, iron mines, and limestone and other things, besides, there are some rich animal and plant resources in the local area.

As long as the railway is repaired, the goods from all over the Ming Dynasty can also be exchanged here, and the flow of people increases, and the bitter cold land in northern Liaobei is not a place of suffering, but a cornucopia.

From the Beiling Strait, horizontally to the west, there are a large number of rivers flowing to the far north of the sea, and there are also a large number of north-south mountains, the most important in the southeast corner, there is also a peninsula, on this peninsula, rich in geothermal resources, as well as a large number of forests, coastal fishery resources, due to the geothermal relationship under the island, are enriched around the peninsula.

There are also a large number of coal mines, gold mines, copper mines, and even pumice stones, which are used to return pigs. Mao's stuff is everywhere. The island is called Kamchatka Peninsula, the northwestern boundary of the peninsula, in addition to the Chels Mountain, to the west there is the Upper Jans Mountain. Along the Shangyangs Mountain, all the way to the south, you can reach the Great Khing'an Mountains, and then the Amur and Heilongjiang rivers.

Then there is the upper Jans Mountain, and on the west side of the mountain is a river called the Lena River, which runs south along its tributary of the Lena River. You can go to the place where Su Wu shepherds, Beihai. This place in Beihai, according to the territory map of the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, is called the land of the seven tribes of Transkhalkha, also called Buryatia, and then there is Hangai Mountain, that is, Yanran Mountain.

When Chongzhen's eyes were staring at Hang Aishan, Zhu Changhao muttered in his mouth, "In a thousand mountains, the long smoke and sunset are lonely and closed. A glass of turbid wine is thousands of miles away, and Yan Ran has no plan. "A song by Fan Zhongyan "Fisherman's Pride" was read out to make Chongzhen understand that the northern territory of the Ming Dynasty was obtained by the sons and daughters of the empire.

Chongzhen listened, glanced at Zhu Changhao, and said to the territory map, "The general died in a hundred battles, and the strong man returned in ten years; The Son of Heaven guards the country, the king dies, and the land of the Ming Dynasty is superfluous. ”

Uncle and nephew, this will guide the country in the imperial study, stirring up words, a harmonious and warm atmosphere. Zhu Changhao also took the opportunity to say that he had obtained this territory and proposed a method of governance, that is, to establish a province from north to south.

To the north of the Beishan Jurchen Tribe, including the former Kamchatka Peninsula, the Envoy Deer Division, and the Envoy Dog Division, including the Bailing Strait, the boundary east of the Chels Mountains, and the establishment of the Northern Ming Province; east of the Yenisei River and west of the Lena River, the province of North Sea was established; The boundary of the Beishan Jurchen, north of the Great Khing'an Mountains, established Beishan Province; the boundaries of the three guards and the establishment of the province of the province; Nuergan went to the border of Vladivostok and established the province of Hercynian; The reason for this is that this place was formerly the territory of the Hercynian Jurchens, and it is located west of the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Whales. Finally, from Shanhaiguan to Shengjing, Zhu Changhao was designated as Liaodong Province.

The division of Liaodong was completed, and Zhu Changhao also divided the boundaries north of Xuanda by the way. In the northernmost part, the Tunguska territory is called Beihai Province; To the south of Beihai Province and north of the Sayan Mountains, including Lake Baikal, there are seven Trans-Khalkha provinces of Shanyang Province, and the following Tatars and five Inner Khalkha provinces, including Chahar, Zhu Changhao called it Shannan Province.

In this way, the northeast and north of the Ming Dynasty suddenly came to Mingbei Province, Beishan Province, Duoqi Province, Haixi Province, and Liaodong Province; There are also Beihai Province, Shanyang Province, Shannan Province.

Just such a battle to drive away Jiannu made the Ming Dynasty have eight more provinces at once, and the area of these eight provinces is actually larger than the territory that the Ming Dynasty currently controls.

When the time came, when the two ladies and children were sleepy, Zhu Changhao resigned to Chongzhen, and said, "Your Majesty, the great court meeting on the ninth day of the lunar month, this king will officially play and establish these eight provinces. ”

"Uncle Five Emperors, I agree to all your requests, these newly built eight provinces will be announced to the world when the time comes, and Taichang Temple will issue a letter of state to my Ming vassal country, so that the small countries of Fanbang from all over the world will know about my Ming Dynasty's cultural and martial arts."

"The Emperor Shengming!"

After returning to the mansion of King Rui's Mansion, Zhu Changhao waited under Liu Zilian's own hands, finished washing, and fell asleep with the princess in his arms very peacefully, without even a little ripple in his heart. Liu Zilian stroked Zhu Changhao's sturdy chest, looked at the man sleeping motionless next to her, and couldn't help muttering in her heart, "Could it be that the concubine is old and decrepit, or that the prince's thing can't be lifted?" ”

Zhu Changhao, who was asleep, naturally didn't know that the woman next to him was doubting his man's ability, if he knew, then he would definitely let Liu Zilian know what was Thirteen Lang in one night, making her cry so much that she cried and begged for mercy.

The next day was a small court meeting, which was the time when the emperor spontaneously summoned the courtiers to come in and ask the right questions, but Zhu Changhao began to take Liu Zheng, Lao Dao, and his wife and children to hang around in the capital city.

Coming out of the Chengtian Gate in the south, a group of guards secretly stayed by his side, protecting Zhu Changhao's safety. A pair of children around him will be wearing brocade cotton robes, looking extravagant.

Zhu Changhao, together with Liu Zheng and Lao Dao, talked some gossip while walking, in order to prevent some unnecessary trouble, everyone called Zhu Changhao the fifth master. No, Lao Dao looked at the people on the street, "Fifth master, let's go to the bell tower in the north to have a look, there are jugglers, there are also artists in the rivers and lakes, and there are many businessmen from all over the world." When he got there, the fifth master could hear a lot of unheard news. ”

"Really? The master still plans to go to the glaze factory in the south to have a look? It is said that you can pick up leaks when you get there. ”

"Hehe, Fifth Master, the Liulichang overpass is also very happy, but it is close to Yongding Gate, and there are not as many merchants outside the mouth as Desheng Gate in the north."

"Okay, Brother Liu, let's go to the place where businessmen gather today to take a look and see how the three major industries we advocate will make these businessmen change in the past year."

"Yes, we will listen to the fifth master", the old man said with a hammer.
