[273] New immigrants

There are thousands of islands in Southeast Asia, and it is difficult to describe any country in this region in words, because for the indigenous people, the concept of the state is still far away, and in many of these islands, the indigenous people still live like primitive tribes, just like Africa.

Because of the abundance of islands in this area, piracy has become a promising profession in Southeast Asia, with mountain gorges, fishing villages, and headlands all natural lairs for pirates.

Ignorant natives and crazy pirates have made it so that no country wants to #operate this place as their own land, and the Dutch, British, and Spaniards, define this place as a complete colony, domesticate the natives as bush monkeys, and cultivate plantations for them.

In the People's Republic of China, there are quite a few comrades with insights, who have proposed to Yao Fanti yì, and use Southeast Asia as a puppet country or colony to #operate, rather than be included in the territory.

To these comrades, Yao Fan always patiently told them: "Look at how many overseas Chinese there are!" Look at how savage and ignorant those natives are! These two extreme oppositions will inevitably lead to the extreme worship of Chinese civilization in this region, or it will be extremely anti-Chinese. The purpose of the incorporation is to prevent the latter from happening. ”

Considering that China has had undisputed rule over the region since ancient times, most people are very much in favor of recovering it.

The 037 hunting submarine numbered 35021 galloped and shuttled in the Strait of Malacca, and the captain Huang Yuanmao squinted his eyes, pointing to the two three-masted sailing ships on the sea in the distance and said to the political commissar Zhong Zhen: "Based on my experience, it must be a pirate ship, and in the past half a month, the pirate dens we have destroyed around here are all using this kind of fast Dutch sailing ships." ”

Huang Yuanmao smiled confidently and said: "Seeing us waving the flag and not replying, we turned around and ran, the hull draft is shallow, it can never be a merchant ship." ”

Political Commissar Zhong nodded slightly: "It would be good if we could take the boat down, against these wooden boats, we can only collect the corpses as soon as we open fire." ”

Huang Yuanmao said cautiously: "Although there is the general hydrological data of this area issued by the central government, but in terms of understanding the specific waterways and reefs in this area, we can't compare to these pirates, they are now desperately leaning on the fjord, who knows if there are reefs there?" ”

Political Commissar Zhong slapped his forehead: "Lao Huang, you are right, in case there is a mistake in the battleship, there is really no way to write this report when you look back, so let's beat it quickly!" ”

Huang Yuanmao nodded confidently and picked up the walkie-talkie in his hand: "The No. 1 gun position is ready, the target pirate ship, fire!" ”

In the face of the shelling of the Chinese Navy, the pirates who felt that it was impossible to get rid of the high-speed pursuit of the 037 hunting submarine quickly hung up the white flag and obediently followed the shouts of the Chinese Navy and pulled the ship over.

Crackdowns like this are happening everywhere from the Philippines to the Strait of Malacca.

At the same time, land reform was like an artifact, and the local natives, who had been liberated from the brutal rule of the Spaniards and the Dutch, soon began to struggle internally, with the heads of the nobles, elders, landlords, and the previous rulers being cut off one by one, and the plots of land having new owners.

Under the organization of the local Chinese, the indigenous people were organized to build the local infrastructure, large areas of rainforest were cut down, timber was transported and processed, the wilderness was burned, the endless fertile soil was revealed, and the warm and humid climate allowed Southeast Asia to be cultivated all year round, both as plantations and as arable land.

When the 35021 dragged two captured three-masted sailing ships into the port of Medan, a 4,500-ton steam cruise ship "Baiyun 03" from Guangzhou entered the port with a long stream of soot and steam and a long whistle.

"Lao Huang, the second batch of standardized immigrants has arrived." Political Commissar Zhong looked happy.

Captain Huang Yuanmao smiled: "Okay! With these ten or eight large cruise ships, the more than one million paddy fields and plantations left by the Dutch in Medan will not be left uncultivated. ”

Zhong Zhen shook his head: "Where is there enough for eight out of ten, according to the central estimates, in our Medan Port area alone, the area of cultivated land to be developed will exceed two million mu, and the cultivated land area will far exceed three million mu if it has been developed." According to the requirements of the Saigon Theater Resettlement Planning Bureau, a family of three will be divided into 30 acres of land, and there will be 100,000 agricultural households here in the future, plus the urban population, there will be 400,000 immigrants to say the least. ”

Huang Yuanmao said with a smile: "The indigenous population here in Medan is less than 60,000, and the population of our country is really large. ”

Zhong Zhen said: "Not to mention Medan, the total population of the entire island of Sumatra plus the surrounding small islands is only 610,000!" Do you know the numbers from last year's census in our country? Break through 400 million! ”

Huang Yuanmao stuck out his tongue.

Zhong Zhen watched the deputy captain run out of the deck and beckoned the first mate to arrange to enter the port, and said: "The entire Malay Peninsula from Bangkok in Siam to Singapore has a population of only 550,000!"

The island of Java, east of Sumatra, has a larger population of 2.7 million.

To the east of Singapore, to the north of Java, on the island of Borneo, which the Dutch call Kalimantan, has a population of only 200,000!

Do you know that the area of Java Island is about 132,000 square kilometers, the area of Borneo is about 740,000 square kilometers, and the area of Sumatra Island is about 470,000 square kilometers, and the total of these three islands and the surrounding affiliated islands is about 1.4 million square kilometers, and the potential cultivated land area is more than 400,000 square kilometers, which is 600 million acres of cultivated land! According to the resettlement plan of 30 acres per household, 20 million households can be fed! ”

Huang Yuanmao's tongue was about to retract.

Zhong Zhen talked about Xing Zhengnong, and said: "With the Philippines and the Malay Peninsula, the arable land in Southeast Asia is enough for 100 million immigrants, and if you add Annam and Siam, it will be impossible to settle this account, in short, our country has at least more than 100 million rural labor gaps in Southeast Asia alone." However, the total population of this region is too small, Siam, Annam, Cambodia, and Laos combined, the population is only 3.3 million, plus the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, Java, Borneo, and the Philippines, this is only more than 8.6 million, less than 10 million people! ”

Huang Yuanmao retracted his tongue, swallowed and salivaed: "Political commissar, I see your level, not to mention the director of the political department of the Medan detachment of our South China Sea Fleet, it is enough to be the political commissar of the entire South China Sea Fleet." ”

Zhong Zhen laughed and said: "Nonsense, if you really let the political commissar of the fleet know that I am bragging with you today, you must not send me to the Agricultural Reclamation Corps as a branch secretary, hahaha." ”

Huang Yuanmao and Zhong Zhen were talking and laughing, while paying attention to their feet, and led the officer trainees on the 037 hunting submarine to step down the gangway, commanding two three-masted sailing ships in the distance, and docking with the help of the sailors and tugboats escorting the boats.

After the pirates surrendered, they were killed by the 037 submarine hunter when they tried to recapture the ship, and the remaining half were glazed-eyed.

The "Baiyun 03" cruise ship from the mainland has also completed docking and lowering the gangway at this time, and according to the national policy, the migrants who have moved from the poor mountainous areas are noisily disembarking.

"Ah, don't squeeze don't squeeze, squeeze my chicken, I want you to pay!"

"This is Medan, this pier looks magnificent."

"Abba, hurry up, what's the grind, it's going to be late, maybe you won't be able to pick a good place."

"Xiaoling, you hug Ah Fu, Mom and Dad have to carry the luggage."

"Kid, dad, why is this place in Medan hotter than Guangzhou?"

"Fuzi, keep a close eye on my father's carpenter's box, and I'll inquire on the ship, this trip is just your father and I are a carpenter, hey, it's developed now."
