Chapter 17: The King of Australia
In the Kunqing Palace of Nanjing Huangming City, Zheng Xiuyan stood under the stage and said happily, "Father-in-law, except for Liu Tichun and Li Laiheng, the Dashun Army in Eastern Sichuan is unwilling to join our army, and everyone else has officially surrendered to our army. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoTwenty counties in eastern Sichuan, except for Xingshan County, the other nineteen counties will be included in our army. ”
Zheng Chenggong heard a loud shout, "Okay, Xiuyan did a good job!" As soon as the east of Sichuan returned to Shun, the road to the north was opened up again, and we thought that it would deter Wu Sangui in Sichuan. This time your NII did a great job. I will reward you much,"
Zheng Xiuyan hurriedly said, "Father-in-law, Xiuyan doesn't dare to be greedy for credit, this success is all due to the Southwest Investigation Bureau, and it is still Cai Jiuyi's credit." Ask your father-in-law to reward them. ”
Zheng Chenggong nodded and said, "They have worked hard and deserve to be rewarded." rewarded Cai Jiuyi with the title of lieutenant of the light car from the third grade, and asked him to report the list of meritorious heroes this time and reward them together. ”
Zheng Xiuyan hurriedly arched her hand and said, "My daughter thanked the general for his favor on their behalf!" ”
Zheng Chenggong looked at Zheng Xiuyan and said, "The subordinates have done an excellent job, and you are also the leader of the director." It should also be rewarded! Say, daughter, what do you want? ”
Zheng Xiuyan waved her hand and said, "No, father-in-law." Xiuyan is not short of food and clothing now, and she really doesn't have anything she wants! ”
Zheng Chenggong sighed and said, "Xiuyan, if you are a man, it's fine!" It's not a problem to be knighted like this, it's a pity that you are a daughter. If you are knighted, those old stubborns are afraid that they will be noisy again. If this is the case alone, the father is not afraid. Anyway, I have done a lot of things that violate the patriarchal law for my father, and I am not afraid of admonishment. But if you are knighted, it will be difficult for you to marry in the future. Those who are high and powerful will not marry you, and those who are weak will not dare to marry you. Especially since you are now the director of the National Bureau of Investigation, many people with strange thoughts have proposed marriage to me several times, but my father does not dare to agree, for fear that it will harm you for the rest of your life. Xiuyan, now your marriage is a piece of your father's mother's heart. If you like it, you can say it, and the father will be the master! ”
Hearing her father-in-law say this, Zheng Xiuyan just wanted to say a name, but suddenly shut up again.
Zheng Xiuyan thought about it again and again, but she didn't dare to say that name after all.
She opened her mouth and said, "Father-in-law, now that eastern Sichuan has been taken by our army, my daughter thinks it's time to put pressure on Wu Sangui." ”
Seeing that Zheng Xiuyan refused to talk about marriage and deliberately diverted the topic, Zheng Chenggong could only sigh and continued, "Wu Sangui's most relied on Guanning Iron Cavalry has suffered heavy injuries, and now he can only live in Shu. Xiuyan, you send someone to tell Wu Sangui that he is willing to surrender, and it is not impossible to be crowned king. Tell him that our army occupies a large island in the South-East Sea, an island larger than Qiong. The land is fertile, the materials are abundant, and there are nearly a million people, as long as he is willing to surrender, he will follow the example of King Mu of the Ming Dynasty and make him the king of Australia. The prince with real power is always more cost-effective than his prince who has no power to be canonized. If he doubts his refusal to surrender, it will be his end when he meets each other in the future! ”
Zheng Jiajun occupied a large island in the Southeast China Sea, larger than Qiong Island, and a population of one million, why hadn't she heard of it.
Zheng Xiuyan asked suspiciously, "Dare to ask my father-in-law, what is the island called?" ”
Zheng Chenggong blushed a little when he heard it and said, "The island that was just discovered is not recorded in the annals of Chinese history, and it is called Australia by my father. ”
Australia!
Now it's a huge pit, and it's not worth the life of the dead!
It's big, but eighty or ninety percent of the places are not suitable for human habitation.
The materials are quite abundant, but later generations will call it a country riding on the back of a sheep and on a minecart, how can it not be rich.
The material is abundant, and the species is also very rich.
Box jellyfish, blue-circled octopus, ferocious great white shark, Australian saltwater crocodile, death pit viper, funnel-web spider, redback spider, brown eao snake, chicken snail, eastern brown snake, inland taipan snake, these names are terrifying.
Now the whole of Australia is full of poison.
Even the bees there are dangerous, and a person with a sensitive constitution can kill them if they take a bite.
There are also nearly a million people, but all of them are indigenous.
Aboriginal Australians make a living by hunting and gathering, and basically do not cultivate.
They are a nomadic population that sets up makeshift tents near water sources and migrates again when they run out of food. They traded with other tribes and exchanged goods such as spears.
If Wu Sangui is willing to surrender and go there, Zheng Chenggong will definitely agree with both hands and feet.
At present, Taiwan still needs nearly one million people to fill it, and in such a big and fast place as Nanyang, it is not enough to fill in 10 million.
The population of the middle and late Ming Dynasty was about 120 million, and in the early Qing Dynasty, because of the war, the population was only more than 80 million.
The population has plummeted, and it is simply not enough to meet the needs of filling the base of Han people in those places.
In order to increase the population, Lao Tzu developed a series of incentives.
Even nuns and widows did not let go, forcing them to marry, and if they did not marry within the specified time, the court would directly give you a match, and then marry someone who lacked arms and legs, and don't wronged the court.
As for the marriage is not smooth, Lao Tzu doesn't care whether the two of you are beaten or killed, as long as you give birth to a baby for Lao Tzu.
When you don't raise it, the court will help you raise it.
At the same time, in order to allow the people to move over, those officials who have task indicators can use any moves.
It is common to ask grandpa to sue grandma, it is necessary to cheat and cheat, and the slogan of high reward comes out casually.
Outside the old government and the new government, the most common situation in recent years is.
Dressed in a new office uniform, the official put a desk on the right side of the door and shouted, "Come on! Come and see, if you sign up to go to Taiwan, you will send 50 acres of fertile land immediately. Tax exemption for three years! ”
Hearing that there were fifty acres of fertile land, a few people passing by were moved when they heard it, and they just wanted to walk over and have a look.
Just as he was about to go, there was also a desk on the other side, and a few officials hurriedly shouted, "Those who sign up to go to Nanyang will be allocated 100 acres of fertile land, tax-free for three years, and family property will be given!" ”
One hundred acres of fertile land! It seems that the conditions are better over there.
And the people stopped their feet, and wanted to go to the other side.
Taiwan's index officials took a look, you girl, dismantle Lao Tzu's platform.
They immediately shouted: "Father, old folks, Taiwan is close, three days back and forth." Don't delay farming and go home to visit relatives! ”
The official over there also hurriedly shouted, "Nanyang has many benefits, there are fields, land, family property, and slaves are sent to help work and warm the bed." If you go, you're a big man! Don't miss it! ”
At the beginning, in order to complete the task indicators, the officials on both sides did more than a dozen fights in order to compete for the people.
Later, it was the prefect who saw the anger and scolded both sides, so that they could only speak and not move.
The people were hesitating, and the officials on both sides were talking about the benefits of going to Taiwan and Nanyang. It's about the sky, which makes people's hearts move.
Let's get excited! It's better to act than to be excited!
Sign up quickly, it's too late for you to have your share.
As long as those people were willing to sign and paint, those officials were afraid that the people would repent, so they even pushed and took the land and sent it to the South Seas.
As for the family property or something, don't, the country surname is ready for you.
Tell your family, Lao Tzu will help you tell you about this matter.
In the beginning, there was no peace in the south, and most of the people who had been war-torn were willing to go when they heard that there was a distribution of fertile land.
But now that the south has calmed down, the Chinese people are content with the status quo, and the problem of staying away from their homeland makes Zheng Chenggong very helpless, and he is always unwilling to force these people to relocate with knives and guns.
If you really want to do this, I am afraid that the people's uprising will be light.
When there is a mutiny, Lao Tzu is really dead!
Now Zheng Chenggong can only coax the people to go, and at the same time implement military cantonment in those places.
He sent the army over, and by the way, let the military family also send it over, and it took root there.
This world is very big, in addition to the South Seas, Zheng Chenggong's future plan also includes Hawaii, as well as North America and South America with better conditions than Australia!
The development of these places does not need people.
When you think of those places, Australia is not comparable.
It's not a pity to throw it to Wu Sangui.
In Australia, with Wu Sangui's ability, it is impossible to clean up Australia at all.
And if you go to the land of poison, can Wu Sangui's kid live a long life?
Any inconspicuous spider could kill him.
If Wu Sangui had such a long life, Lao Tzu would admit it.
Let him compete with Lao Tzu for the world!
Lao Tzu gathered the strength of the whole country, coupled with the strong navy, he didn't believe that Wu Sangui could not be handled.
As for Wu Sanguiken to be a turtle with a shrunken head, he endured this life and wanted to rely on his son to turn the book.
Will Lao Tzu let him get his wish?
Push Grace Order! Push Grace Order! Push Grace Order!
Say the important thing three times. (To be continued.) )
