Chapter 628: Army Reorganization Plan II
Chapter 626: The Returning Fleet,
Although under Zhu Houhuang's policy, the development of Dongyong fishery is very fast. However, the scope of activity of Dongyong fishing vessels is still quite limited.
The shipyard in Shaofu is okay with other ships, but it is familiar with the construction of fishing boats.
Especially after the standardization concept proposed by Zhu Houhuang, the construction of fishing boats is much easier. A large number of fishing boats are launched almost every month, so that the salted fish produced by Dongyong has become one of Dongyong's specialties. However, the increase in the number of fishing boats in Dongyong also made Dongyong's fishing boats go farther and farther, and although there was no ocean-going fishing, villages were established in many parts of Luzon to specialize in fishing.
Under such influence, Zhu Houhuang gradually had a sufficient marine population. The number of people in Luzon has gradually increased.
Many fishermen along the coast have fled to Dongyong, but under Dongyong's planning, they have settled in Luzon.
Zheng Lu's encounter with the fishing boat indicates that they are not far from the South China Sea.
As expected, it only took a few days. And so they came to Luzon. After a short stop in Luzon, head to Dongyong. Soon Zhu Houhuang, who was in Star City, got the news.
He was overjoyed.
With the support of this waterway, Dongyong will have more abundant financial freedom. With sufficient financial support, the construction of Dongyong will be on a higher level.
Zhu Houhuang couldn't sit still.
He was too high to see the thorns. At this moment, the full thorn plus is being jumped by the chickens and dogs that Wang is chasing.
If it weren't for Wang Zhi's unwillingness to lose too much and his unwillingness to play hide and seek in the mountains with the Manchurians, the Manchurians would have been pacified long ago, and even so, a large number of Manchurians were sent to Star City as slaves and became the main force in the construction of Star City.
Those who are not of my race will have different hearts.
If these people were Han Chinese, Zhu Houhuang would inevitably organize them into households. But for these people, it is impossible for Zhu Houhuang to organize them into households.
As long as the Chinese give him land, they will be grateful to Dade and divide it safely, but these locals, even if they give him land, they will not honestly farm. I can only use the whip to teach a few years, maybe I can learn a little skill, and then it is not too late to organize the people together.
During this period of time, Zhu Houhuang already felt that he had wasted a bit here.
Luo Xuan sent envoys to the Nanyang countries under the command of Zhu Houhuang, if there were no two examples of Annan and Manchujia in front, these Nanyang countries might not give Zhu Houhuang much face, but with these two precedents, they all expressed their obedience to Dongyong. The so-called Ming is too far away, and Dongyong is too close, which is the case.
Zhang Han is guarding the Johor area, and all the young and strong people of various tribes are incorporated into the army, and the army is stationed in the Johor area.
It's not that Zhang Han can't think of a better way, but no. After Zhang Han asked Zhu Houhuang for instructions, he could only use coercion.
Although Zhu Houhuang is presiding over the overall situation, Nanyang resists, Zhu Houhuang feels that if he has no big failure before, however, there is one country that needs Zhu Houhuang's attention, and that is Aceh.
Aceh is on the west coast of Sumatra, and is gradually gaining strength, and at the moment it is fighting against the state of Bitir, and the fierce battle between the two of them has brought a lot of business to Dongyong, but nothing more. I don't see how powerful it is now, it's just that Aceh is a Muslim country.
Before the Francophiles arrived in Southeast Asia, the traditional shipping lanes of Southeast Asia were all controlled by Muslim countries, and even the Muslim countries of Southeast Asia were themselves by-products of the great voyages of the Arabs. So in this era, the shipping route from the West to the East has not yet been monopolized by Westerners, and at least the competition between Arab merchants and Westerners is still going on.
From this point of view, Dongyong, as an important part of the route of the Franc plane, coupled with Zhu Houhuang's decisive means to deal with the Muslims in Kuching, Aceh has a very bad impression of Dongyong.
However, the current Zhu Houhuang has not thought about an expedition to Aceh.
So, hidden dangers are just hidden dangers.
However, there is a problem that Zhu Houhuang needs to consider.
Who can replace Zhu Houhuang in Star City.
Although the capital of Star City has not yet been built, Star City is the center of Dongyong's control of the South Seas in terms of geographical location, and it is the most important.
But Zhu Houhuang had at hand, whether it was Zhang Han or Luo Xuan, was not enough to be responsible for such a power, Zhu Houhuang suddenly remembered a person, that is Wang Jiuchuan, after he learned about Wang Jiuchuan's political achievements, he immediately decided to transfer Wang Jiuchuan to Star City, responsible for Kuching, Star City, and Malacca.
Wang Jiuchuan was in Kuching, repairing tribes one by one, making them accept the fact of the destruction of Bo Ni, and getting a lot of slaves from them, and then desperately reclaiming wasteland and supervising grain production. I have to say that Nanyang is a good place, maybe there are such defects in Nanyang, but in general, the grain production here is three crops a year, and if you run any place well, it is a granary for Dongyong.
Now Kuching's grain can supply Star City and Malacca. From conquest to production, it took just over a year.
That's why Zhu Houhuang made this decision.
After Zhu Houhuang explained this place, he immediately returned to Dongyong.
Just came to Dongyong, Zhu Houhuang met Zheng Lu non-stop.
"Chen Zheng Lu greets His Highness." Zheng Lu's face was dark, and he could no longer see the childishness of the young man, but had a long-tempered perseverance. "Several times, the minister thought that he would never see His Highness again."
Zhu Houhuang hurriedly helped Zheng Lu up and said: "Zheng Qing has made great contributions to the country, please get up quickly, please get up quickly."
Zhu Houhuang took a little more fancy to Zheng Lu in his heart.
The great navigation of this era, in the eyes of later generations, is magnificent and epic, but for the parties concerned, it is a life of death, there is no return, especially for the voyage with the nature of exploration, it is likely to go to ten people, eight or nine will not come back. Although Zhu Houhuang didn't pass by, looking at Zheng Lu's appearance, he knew that he was not happy.
Although Zheng Lu was a pirate before, he had a father above and an uncle below, although Zheng Lu was not pampered, but his face was also white and clean, and he had the temperament of a son, but now Zheng Lu is like an old fisherman on the sea, and the gap between before and after is actually too big.
Zheng Lu said: "The minister went to the west, sailed tens of thousands of miles, met the king of Xiyi, the king of the Hongmao country, and was willing to reconcile with our country, so that ships from both sides could pass through this channel." Although the minister is the first batch, the second and third batches of Xiyi's ships are about to come, and His Royal Highness is asked to prepare early. ”
Zhu Houhuang said: "Lone already knows, Lone has ordered, Luzon opens the port." From then on, the ships of the Korfur Kingdom can go directly to Luzon. ”
It is not without reason why the place where the port was opened was Luzon, and why not, the center of the Oriental camp of the Spaniards in later generations was Luzon. However, Zhu Houhuang didn't think about why, just took out this result and used it directly.
"Your Highness is wise." Zheng Lu said.
Zhu Houhuang didn't know the mystery. But Zheng Lu knew.
When crossing the Pacific Ocean, there is an ocean current from South America directly to Luzon, and following this current can save a lot of effort.
Zhu Houhuang thought it was Zheng Lu's kind words, so he didn't care too much, and asked directly.
Zheng Lu said: "The minister went to the west, sailed tens of thousands of miles, met the king of Xiyi, the king of the Hongmao country, and was willing to reconcile with our country, so that ships from both sides could pass through this channel."
