Chapter 1088: A New Generation Replaces the Old
Shen Shixing introduced his disaster relief experience, and Zhao Zhenji said: "The method is really good, but the provinces in the north can't all be used to raise sheep, right?" What's more, the output of sheep raising per mu of land is far less than that of farming, and tens of millions of people in the north still can't feed them. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Yin Shidan didn't think so, he had been a governor in Liangguang, and he knew more about the overseas situation than Zhao Zhenji, he said: "Dazhou Gong, Lord Shen's method may not be universal, but his thinking is very good. We must not only think about giving money and food, but also guide the people to find a livelihood and have a way to live. I don't know what Motosuke thinks? ”
Tang Yi thought so, "Even if the climate in the north is normal, because of years of cultivation, the fertility is declining, and it is difficult to bear the huge population, and the Yellow River floods every year, and the cost of river control is huge, and it is not cost-effective to calculate in all aspects." My opinion is to move the population and promote new industries. ”
Tang Yi made a final decision, and the big guy nodded frequently, but he still needed to think carefully about which direction to transfer.
Tang Ruji took the lead and said: "Yuanfu, I have inspected the nine sides and inspected various places, and I think that Liaodong is a treasure land. ”
"How?" Everyone was curious.
Tang Ruji laughed, "Although Liaodong is more bitter and cold than the northwest, but the land in Liaodong is fertile, the plains are vast, boundless, and the rainfall is abundant, far more suitable for farming than the northwest. ”
"Ah, really?" Zhao Zhenji said curiously: "So Liaodong is really a treasure land!" ”
"Not only that, the mountains of Liaodong overlap, the timber is abundant, there are many coal mines, there are mushrooms, pine nuts, walnuts, ginseng, wild meat...... As long as the road can be opened and the treasures of Liaodong can be transported out, they will definitely be able to sell well. Tang Ruji said: "However, if you want to develop Liaodong safely, you must solve the barbarian department, as long as the threat of the barbarians is eliminated, you can rest assured and boldly immigrate to Liaodong." ”
There is war again!
The big guys are all staring at Tang Yi, this kind of big thing, he still has to make up his mind.
Tang Yi knows better than everyone that Liaodong is the northeast of later generations, which is the best granary, with fertile soil and beautiful water, and abundant products. And the most important thing, crossing the Heilongjiang River, that is, the Outer Northeast, Tang Yi has seen a piece of information in his previous life, Tsarist Russia got 6,000 tons of gold in the Outer Northeast alone!
Six thousand tons of gold!
That's a lot of wealth, and if you miss it, it's a crime.
"The immigration of Liaodong is imperative!" Tang Yi said categorically: "Immediately order Li Chengliang and Qi Jiguang to prepare for battle, and in addition, the imperial court will send a team of men and horses to inspect the situation in the entire Liaodong, and go north as far as possible to see how many specialties Liaodong has, how much economic value, and how many immigrants it can bear." ”
Soon the cabinet agreed, according to Tang Yi's estimates, Liaodong's industry and commerce, gold-making, logging, and gathering, can absorb at least two million people, and farming also needs two or three million people, plus long-distance trafficking, raising livestock, within ten years, five million immigrants to Liaodong, there is no problem at all.
Gain a firm foothold in Liaodong, and develop to the north, a place as big as Siberia, even if it is bitter cold all year round, difficult to develop, get it in your hands, it is good to be a safari park, you have nothing to do to see the tiger, as long as you don't get out of the car and be eaten...... Take Siberia, cross the Ural Mountains, anyway, occupy as much land as possible, and print it on the map in the future, which is also pleasing to the eye.
Of course, just one Liaodong immigrant can't solve the problem, Shen Shixing said again: "Master, the disciple proposes to restore Hamiwei and open the road to the Western Regions, and the oasis in the Western Regions is enough to immigrate one million." ”
Shen Shixing has always been cautious, but in fact, Hamiwei's potential is not below Liaodong at all.
At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the Northern Yuan Dynasty collapsed, Hami was separated from the Great Yuan Empire, and during the Yongle period, it accepted Zhu Di's canonization and was included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
However, due to the development of maritime trade routes, the Silk Road on the road was overshadowed, and the Ming court did not emigrate to Hamiwei in large numbers, but only adopted a fetter rule, appointed a king, and ruled Hami.
The Western Regions are vast, bandits have always been rampant, wars are continuous, only the strong can hold the family business, King Hami is facing the double attack of Warat and Turpan, and the strength is becoming more and more decaying, and the whole Wang Xiaoer celebrates the New Year, and the year is not as good as a year.
Until the early years of Jiajing, Hamiwei was annexed by Turpan, and the monarchs and ministers of the Ming Dynasty were busy with the great rites and had no time to take care of it, and in this way, the Ming court lost control of the Western Regions.
Shen Shixing was in the northwest for several years, he noticed a lot of bad situations, after the loss of Hamiwei, the northwest frontier of the Ming Dynasty was opened, Gansu, Shaanxi, Sichuan and other places were facing a strong threat, not only including the Warat tribes, and even the Arab caravans from Dashi, they did business, also carried out missions, and at the same time devoured and devoured, many small tribes depended on them.
Buddhism in the Western Regions, which had flourished in the Western Regions, became more and more decaying, and over time, the entire Western Regions would culturally get rid of its dependence on the Central Plains.
It is imminent to restore Hamiwei and pass through the Western Regions.
After Shen Shixing put forward his opinions, Tang Yi attached great importance to it.
The hometown of the Three Qin Dynasty is the land of the Chinese dragon, and the Han and Tang dynasties swept the world with Guanzhong and established a huge empire, and the northwest must not be ignored.
Tang Yi immediately decided to appoint Yang An as the commander-in-chief of Gansu, and at the same time appointed Ma Dong as the deputy general of Hami. In addition, Yang Jisheng took over as the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, concurrently served as the economic strategy of the Western Regions, gathered generals, chose the opportunity to send troops, and recovered the entire Western Regions, and even after Tang Yi was ready to seize several important mountain passes, he developed all the way to Central Asia, and then went south to India from the north.
Throughout the history of the third brother, it is still very joyful.
As long as a nomadic tribe of tens of thousands of people appears in the north, can gather 10,000 cavalry, and seize the natural danger mountain pass in the north, the entire South Asian continent will quickly surrender.
To the west, to take Central Asia, to take South Asia, and preferably to the Middle East, all the way to Baghdad......
Tang Yi didn't know if he would be able to see this day in his lifetime, but he had already made up his mind that the war machine of the Ming Dynasty was about to be activated.
Of course, whether it is Liaodong or the Western Regions, the environment is complex and the climate is bitter and cold, and if you want to immigrate to see the results, I am afraid it will take a lot of time, and you will not be able to see immediate results.
You must know that there are still tens of millions of people in the Central Plains, waiting to be fed!
"Annan! The best option at the moment is Annan! ”
Tang Yi said categorically that he had received a report that with the help of the Ming army, the Mo Dynasty had defeated Houli's men. Hold the north.
It's just that Mo Chao accepted Ping'an's suggestion, which made the people in the country panic and kept fleeing, and Houli was also hit hard, losing tens of thousands of people, and the two sides have been tugging back and forth for decades, and they are already exhausted.
Ping An told his father in a letter that the most scarce resource in Annan now turned out to be an able-bodied man. Ping An is also fifteen or sixteen years old, inheriting his father's tall figure, white teeth and red lips, chic and handsome, every time he goes on the street, the undisguised coveting of Annan women makes him feel terrible, that is, a bunch of she-wolves, to swallow everyone!
Not to mention peace, even an old man like Wang Yin is coveted by others.
The monkey has fallen, and he heard that he has taken six concubines. It's Ping'an and Qi Anguo, it looks very weird, Qi Anguo wants to learn from his father, he only loves one in his life, as for Ping'an, that kid is purely arrogant, and Annan's women can't look down on it, so they hold on, and I don't know how long I can hold on......
The climatic conditions in Annam are excellent, and many of the fields are newly abandoned for a short time, as long as someone re-cultivates them, they can be cultivated, and within half a year, there will be a harvest!
Immigrating to Annan was quickly recognized as the most effective strategy after research.
According to Tang Yi's proposal, the disaster relief materials should be tied to the immigration consent form, that is, if you want to get food and silver, you must accept the requisition of the imperial court and go overseas to reclaim the fields, otherwise, you can only get very little food, and you can't fill your stomach at all.
"Thousands of miles away, uprooted from home, how miserable the people are!"
Zhao Zhenji secretly sighed, and after the cabinet meeting ended, Lao Zhao took the initiative to stay. After the meal, Tang Yi just asked people to cook some noodles, add two eggs, a little green onion, and a little red oil, which tasted fragrant. Zhao Zhenji had a rare appetite and ate a big bowl of noodles.
"Dazhou Gong, don't you want to come again?"
Zhao Zhenji shook his head slightly, "I'm old, my teeth are shaking, my eyes are dizzy, and I can't afford to be reused." ”
As usual, Tang Yi has always been very polite to these old ministers, and he will definitely keep them, but this time Tang Yi seemed very silent, continued to eat noodles with his head bored, and quickly swept away the noodles and eggs in the bowl.
"Take today's events as an example, the old man always feels that if the people leave their homes where they have lived for many years and go on adventures overseas, once they are not adapted, they will die, and I can't bear it!"
Tang Yi put down the dishes and chopsticks and smiled bitterly, "Dazhou Gong, if a family wants to prosper, someone must go out to explore, go out to explore, and guard the head of the family. It is indeed dangerous to let the people reclaim the land, go to a foreign country to make a living, and lick the blood from the knife. Even if you try your best to protect them as much as possible, you will suffer a lot of casualties, and even many people will never return to their homeland in this life, and even if they die, they will regret it for life. ”
"But it is a sacrifice that must be made, born in sorrow, dyed in peace. Blind kindness and blind weakness will not solve the problems at hand. Tang Yi was resolute.
Zhao Zhenji lowered his old eyes, his facial features were tight, and his wrinkles were deeper, and he looked old.
"Alas, the old man doesn't know, but if you want to go overseas, you must let someone who has the ability to go, a group of disaster victims have nothing, they can't eat, and they are forced to go to sea, the old man thinks it's inappropriate."
"Dazhou Gong, those who have the ability can mix well anywhere, how can they go out easily? Even if they go out, they will not go to farming and logging and cultivating fields. ”
Zhao Zhenji was asked again, the old man was silent for a long time, and said dejectedly: "It's true that I'm old, the government affairs of the court are not something that the old man can bear, Yuan Fu, I want to be a scholar!" (To be continued.) )
