Chapter 143 Move the outside to fill the inside, and the inside is the outside

Breaking through Chongqing and connecting the east and west rivers is the most ideal result from the perspective of shape. However, in Zhu Yongxing's view, first, the strength was not caught, and second, the premature rendezvous of the two divisions that originally belonged to the Great Western Army and the Great Shun Army was not particularly advantageous. At least before he brought most of the thirteen families of Kuidong to their hearts, it was easy to make a mess if he was so eager to pinch the two military horses with deep contradictions.

Zhu Yongxing did not directly say his worries, but revealed his meaning to Li Dingguo, the king of Jin. In this regard, Li Dingguo knew very well, because it was in line with his intentions, so he followed the implementation and concentrated the direction of expanding business mainly in the north. That is to say, in his strategic plan of attacking Baoning (Langzhong) in the north and the thirteen families of Kuidong in the east to fight in Hubei, he focused on the former.

This is relatively similar to the original idea of Liu Wenxiu, the king of Shu, "looking forward to the separation of land and water, restoring Shaanxi and Henan, and slightly determining the Central Plains". And "playing the skin to paint the Lin Pavilion, and looking forward to the generals to take care of it" is not Li Dingguo's wish.

If there are 20,000 or 30,000 immigrants in Chengdu, as long as they recuperate for a year, the army can march north; In this year's time, from Yazhou to Chengdu will be slowly developed, and it will be able to connect the two places, and the foundation will be solid. Well, this is not an ordinary connection, but there are villages and towns along the way, where people live, fields planted by the people, Ming troops patrolling the roads, and local officials in the counties...... This is already a real occupation and brings the place back to life.

Looking forward to the future, Li Dingguo, the king of Jin, can no longer afford to compete with Zhu Yongxing and fight for Yongli's power. As long as Zhu Yongxing can show mercy to his subordinates and let Yongli die well, this is his most gratifying expectation. He believes that Zhu Yongxing can keep his promise, because until now, Zhu Yongxing has not broken his promise. Even Li Dingguo once thought that it was just propaganda and didn't have to be taken seriously, but Zhu Yongxing did it.

Let the soldiers of the Ming army who entered Sichuan marry their daughters-in-law after meeting the conditions for marriage. At that time, not many people took Zhu Yongxing's promise as a real thing. Similar slogans have been shouted thousands of times in history, such as "Fight a certain place, have money, food and women", "Follow Lao Tzu, eat fragrant and drink spicy" and so on. It's just incendiary words, and it doesn't matter if it succeeds or doesn't. But Zhu Yongxing remembered what he said in his busy schedule, and seriously put it into practice.

Not to mention the vigorous supply of money and grain in Yunnan since entering Sichuan. Just talking about this matter will make the soldiers return to their hearts and be grateful to Dade. As for Yongli, except for those who want to use it to restore the lost positions and official positions, who will fight for it? On the contrary, if anyone wants to be unfavorable to Zhu Yongxing, there are too many people who will desperately defend it.

Now that he has seen this clearly, Li Dingguo, the king of Jin, is also at ease. It's not that he doesn't want to be a loyal servant from beginning to end, but that's the general trend. Zhu Yongxing's talent, wisdom, courage, and courage are 100 times better than Yongli. No one is invincible, and it is indeed a personal effort to get to this day, not a fluke, as others say, "a saint descended from heaven to save China" is not an exaggeration.

"Lord Wang." The captain of the personal soldiers walked in and bowed, interrupting Li Dingguo's thoughts.

"What?" Li Dingguo asked.

"Several generals came to inquire about those women, and asked the prince to show them."

Li Dingguo couldn't help laughing, this is to fight for his daughter-in-law for his soldiers. If you don't make a charter, it will be really troublesome in the future.

"Okay. I'm going to tell them that if they're late, those bastards might be going to fight each other. Li Dingguo felt that it was better to discuss with everyone and come up with a way that everyone was satisfied with and could not find fault, which would not only appease and motivate those Qiu Ba soldiers who wanted their daughter-in-law to have green eyes, but also greatly benefited from improving morale and increasing the efficiency of land reclamation.

………………

Chengdu Wharf.

A large group of soldiers. And there was a lot of noise, and the gossip was all about helping immigrants carry packages and carry luggage. It's just that the enthusiasm is a bit excessive. Either blatantly or cautiously, one by one, their eyes swirled around the women in the girl's costumes.

Of course. The hot eyes of these "Lei Feng" made them hang their heads one by one, and their faces showed a look of shame and annoyance, and those who had relatives also stood on the periphery intentionally or unintentionally, seemingly casual, but their postures and movements were a little stiff, revealing their inner vigilance and vigilance.

Slightly helpless, there were more than forty young women who seemed to be unaccompanied and careless, and they also attracted the most attention. Although they are all dressed in Ming costumes, they can still see the difference from the Han women when they look closely. Yes, they are either Annamite, or Chenla, or Nanzhang, or Siamese, or Burmese. Some were bought with money, and some were looted by foreign raids.

Although these women from foreign countries were well taken care of on the road and had learned some simple Chinese, they still felt scared and panicked in the face of the hot eyes around them in unfamiliar places. They huddled together, their heads bowed, occasionally sneaking a glance, some of them with tears in their eyes.

A few older women were standing in the way outside, and Haru was carrying a sleeping doll on his back, and he looked up anxiously at his husband, who was talking to the officials not far away. married and obeyed her husband, although she was unwilling to leave behind the better life she had already lived in Annam, she still obeyed her husband and came to this strange place. As soon as she had to start over, she was also a little apprehensive in her heart.

Li Laobo also felt that it was a pity to abandon his family business in Annan, and he also felt sorry for his wife. However, since His Royal Highness Min called on retired soldiers to settle down in Sichuan, he felt that he should respond positively, because he felt that every qiē was the grace of His Royal Highness Min, and he could not forget his roots. What's more, his hometown is in Sichuan, and that trace of nostalgia for his hometown is also one of the reasons why he made up his mind.

"The lower officer thinks that it is more appropriate to let some lone women live for a period of time first, stabilize their minds, adapt to the environment, and then marry the officers and soldiers."

Li Lao's culture is not high, but he became the director of the public security station in Annan and was promoted to the county lieutenant, so he has been trained for more than two years, and his speech has become very organized. Moreover, his resume was reported to the Immigration Office, and the Immigration Office attached great importance to such an experienced local official, and also felt that he was sincere, so he was promoted to the Tongzhi of Chengdu Prefecture.

Calling on retired servicemen to settle in Sichuan is a measure taken by the government to strengthen the grassroots. Immigrants come from all over the world, and daily spears are inevitable, and having the deterrence of these military backgrounds is very beneficial to maintaining social order.

Gao Wengui has seen Li Laobo's official resume, and his eyes do not hide his appreciation. Born in the military, it is exactly what he wants; The current officials are very good. Who doesn't want their subordinates, or the same camp, to be promising?

Yang Mingzhi is also very polite, although he is his subordinate, he will work together for a long time in the future, and he is lacking such an experienced official to share the work.

"What Li Tongzhi said is reasonable, Guogong-" Yang Mingzhi looked at Gao Wengui, and after receiving an affirmative answer, he smiled and said to Li Laoji: "The soldiers in the palace are all temporarily organized township warriors, and Li Tongzhi has to bother to teach and train them. Well, the houses in the city have been cleaned up, so please trouble Li Tongzhi to take the servants to settle these women down first! ”

"The subordinate obeys." Li Lao was not afraid of life, and under the guidance of Xiang Yong summoned by Yang Mingzhi, he left first with a group of women.

"Look at your unproductive appearance. There will be better ones in the future, so × do it! Gao Wengui scolded funny, and the few soldiers beside him turned red and looked away from the women who were slowly leaving.

………………

When I came to this era, I was also influenced, or I got used to a lot of things that I was not used to in later generations, such as buying women. Zhu Yongxing smiled bitterly and put aside the statistics of the Nanzhang prisoners he had received again. This was a joint operation of the Annan Metropolitan Envoys, and the first attack on Nanzhang was still very smooth, which satisfied the group of Annan Metropolitan Envoys and aroused greater ambitions.

In addition, the first batch of women from Khmer, Cambodia, Thailand, Myanmar and other countries has been sent to more than 200, and the second batch is about the same amount, and it will soon be full again. After a short period of teaching, those who can speak and listen to simple Chinese will be sent to Sichuan.

For these women of different countries and races, and even those captives, Zhu Yongxing did not intend to give them a true national identity, but planned to use time to annihilate or assimilate them among the Ming people. Those women are easy to say, one generation and two generations, and it's about the same. Those who have a family may have a longer time, but they don't live in their own ethnic group, and their language and living habits will fade quickly, right?

The foreign tribes scattered and enriched the country, while the own tribes concentrated on expanding outward. This was a method that Zhu Yongxing and his staff thought of, not only to have enough productive population internally, but also to make the external occupation more stable. As for the effect, it is estimated that it will take some time to be reflected.

But for now, Annan's situation is not bad. Especially those Annan women who married the Ming army - married and gave birth to children, even if they accepted their fate. The better you live, the more peaceful you are.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yongxing pursed his lips unconsciously, and a faint smell of milk was still rippling in his mouth. Well, that, breastfeeding is good, the baby grows strong, and there are other benefits.

"Your Highness." A personal guard led the officer of the Ministry of Intelligence to walk in hurriedly, and before he stopped, the voice had already sounded, "The Navy is urgent, and the White Dove Gate has been victorious." ”

Zhu Yongxing stood up and beckoned anxiously, "Quick, bring it quickly." ”

After receiving the military report, Zhu Yongxing counted the lines at a glance, and then read it again carefully, unable to hide his excitement and laughter.

The South China Sea Fleet had completely sealed off the Baigemen Water Village, and at the time of the letter, 3,000 marines had already landed, and it was only a matter of time before the Qing Army's naval divisions trapped in the village were wiped out. I believe that soon, the news of the complete occupation of the White Pigeon Gate Water Village will come again. (To be continued......)
