Chapter 828 Consistent Colonial Policy
If something is good, it will be effective.
Decades ago
When the Imperial Janissaries of the Tang Dynasty carried out harsh repression in Colombia and Cuba, implementing a policy of forced integration of ethnic Chinese, it caused the breakup and displacement of millions of families in South America.
Faced with this situation
In response to European public opinion, a group of unbearable celebrities and experts in the Tang Empire jumped out to strongly oppose it, refuting how anti-human and brutal the military's move was.
Eventually, the Imperial government carried out a complete purge, and the noise disappeared completely.
At that time
Richard, the emperor of the Tang Empire, told a historical story......
In 662 AD, the Tang Dynasty faced chaos on the northwest border, and the Hui and other nine tribes frequently invaded, and the people were not at peace, and there were countless casualties.
In order to quell the rebellion, Tang Gaozong appointed two heroic generals, namely Xue Rengui and Qi Bi He Li. Xue Rengui defeated the Hui and captured more than 100,000 people.
Xue Rengui immediately ordered, "All the men will be slaughtered, and the female dependents will be rewarded to the soldiers."
Hearing this, Hui Hui was greatly panicked, so he sent a messenger to Datang to accuse Xue Rengui of being cruel and unkind, and hurting the sky and Yunyun.
Tang Gaozong had no choice but to send Qi He Li to appease Hui Hui, but Qi Qi He Li behaved even more cruelly, and continuously washed more than a dozen large and medium-sized tribes in Hui Hui.
He Li said in the prelude; "Their barbarian wolf ambition is fearful of power but not virtue, and only the dead grassland people are good subjects."
That is, the so-called non-self race, their hearts will be different.
In the more than 70 years of expansion and colonization of the Tang Empire, generals and colonists from top to bottom have adhered to this concept, which has created the peace and tranquility of the vast territory of 28.06 million square kilometers of the Tang Empire.
Zheng Kai, the Governor of East Africa, was the third generation of imperial officials who adhered to this concept, and comprehensively promoted the long-standing colonial policy in the East African colonies, and the actual effect was very significant.
The total black population of the 1.16 million square kilometers of land in Mozambique and Malawi has been reduced from more than 2.1 million to less than 530,000 after nearly 20 years of imperial rule.
The vast majority of these black laborers are in mines, roads, docks, and pioneer sites, and are dwindling at a rate of more than 100,000 per year.
Among them, it was not the colonists of the Tang Empire who harmed them, but only took measures to separate black men and women and birth control, thus stopping the reproduction of black tribes.
At the beginning of the twentieth century, the average life expectancy of the black tribal population in East Africa was 34 years, 18 years for nearly a generation.
In the case of high-intensity labor, when the young and middle-aged black labor force gradually ages, the population naturally decreases.
This is a more humane move, and the other big move is to import a large number of black laborers into South Africa to reduce the pressure to reduce the black population.
The policy pursued by the Governor of East Africa, Zheng Kai, was that "the fields would rather be barren than allow blacks to cultivate", and this policy was effectively implemented.
The population of Chinese descent in the East African colonies has now reached 1.1 million, and is still growing at an average rate of more than 100,000 per year.
Among them, the average annual import of new immigrants is more than 4.2~45,000, with an average of more than 3,500 people per month, of which about 1/3 are from Yunzhong Province and the peninsula.
Most of the increase comes from the newly born Chinese population in the area, where every Chinese farmer owns a large plot of land and has a strong desire to have children.
It is expected
About 23 years later, around 1940, the population of the Don region of Mozambique and Malawi will exceed 5 million, reaching a high level.
The most precious thing is that except for a few whites, the region will be fully Chinese, Chinese, and become a pure colonial area without blacks, just like the current Yunzhong Province.
This policy was pursued not only in East Africa, but also in the newly occupied Brazilian states, known as the Pure Colonial Zone Project.
Shortly after the abolition of slavery, the problem of blacks in Brazil is deeply entrenched, accounting for about 28% of the population, or more than 2.1 million people.
In the Brazilian states occupied by the Tang Empire, the largest number is still the Chinese ethnic group, with a total of nearly 3 million, and the remaining are about 1.2 million Portuguese descendants, more than 700,000 Spanish descendants, and more than 400,000 white Italian descendants, which together form the basic population structure of Brazilian states.
Nowadays, in the occupied territories of the Brazilian states, comprehensive infrastructure construction is being carried out, which makes it compulsory to recruit blacks into society for hard labor.
On this basis
Funded by the Viceroyalty of Brazil in the Tang Empire, six regular shipping flights a month sent about 12,000 blacks to French Senegal and Algeria in Africa.
With a size of about 150,000 people per year, this part of the French was willing to bear 2/3 of the transportation costs to alleviate the labor shortage in the colonies.
As a matter of fact
Many of the black laborers sent to Algeria were put on French uniforms and filled into the battlefields of the Western Front, where they were eventually consumed as cannon fodder.
Due to the severe shortage of labor in the country, the French side is interested in further increasing the scale of the introduction of black labor, or even doubling it on this basis.
In the relevant negotiations, the Brazilian Governor's Office is actively engaging with the French side to reach cooperation as much as possible.
Through various measures, the Viceroyalty of Brazil is confident that within 15 years, it will basically achieve the goal of a pure colony.
In this era when everyone is not equal and human rights are not universal.
Through more tactful means, the change of the colonial population structure and the comprehensive transformation of Chinese descent and national culture have been less criticized and less resisted by international public opinion.
Today's Tang Empire government is very particular about appearance, and the "Jordan Incident" is only a special case that cannot be replicated, and the bloody repressive policy of early colonization is difficult to sustain, and more peaceful means are used to solve it.
For example, the prohibition of black men and women living together, the prohibition of marriage, the use of various birth control methods, and the export of black labor, etc., through the natural decline of the population, to achieve the goal.
It's a little slower and costs a little more, but the effect is just as significant.
In this era of war-relenting and upheaval, millions of people in all the warring countries of Europe went hungry, and millions died of disease and starvation.
In this harsh situation
No one cares if black people can marry happily, reproduce, live without starving, and what more bicycles?
After listening to the reports of a cadre of military and political dignitaries, Richard completely relieved himself, and it was still reliable to hand over the future of the Tang Empire to them.
The rules have already been set, and everything that needs to be done has been done.
He can basically let go now, walk around the beautiful scenery of the empire, and spend his leisure time with women in his spare time.
Sevillania gave birth to a big fat boy for the Holy Emperor Taizu Richard, who was not yet one year old, and this time he was also brought to the Fubo Palace, and he was the eighty-second prince of the royal family of the Tang Empire.
This is the prince of the Holy Emperor Taizu Richard at the age of 87, and it can also be said to be a good omen for the Tang royal family, implying the endless bright future of the royal family.
Generally speaking
The dragon son and phoenix girl of the Tang royal family will not be officially included in the golden book of the royal family until they are 6~7 years old, which is to avoid early death.
Only then can he be awarded the title of imperial nobleman.
The biggest beneficiary of the whole incident was Severia, and it didn't take long for her to know Richard's unspeakable true identity.
was immediately hit by a huge happiness, and Xiao didn't come back to his senses for a long time, only opened his mouth stupidly and smiled.
Sevillania originally thought that she was the mistress of the counts of the Tang Empire, and this child might not be seen for the rest of her life, so she was also mentally prepared.
Who knows, it turned out to be such a big surprise.
This little baby who is less than one year old is the 82nd prince of the Tang Empire, and his biological father is His Majesty the Holy Emperor Taizu, who founded the Tang Empire, and his honor is unattainable.
In terms of identity, he is a generation older than the current Tang Yezong Emperor of the Tang Empire, and he must shout "Uncle Xiaohuang" when he meets.
Sevillania is simply crazy, so she has been spurred on by Richard recently, and only then has she accepted the reality, and she only giggles when she is happy every day.
The traditional Chinese concept of "mother is precious by child", as long as this little baby grows up healthily, the title of duke of the Tang Empire will not be able to run away in the future.
As for whether it is hereditary or demoted, it depends on the will of the Holy Emperor Taizu.
Anyway, in addition to the military nobles and political dignitaries in the Tang Empire, there are a total of 15 dukes, and all the nobles who are subordinated to the Tang Dynasty are nobles, without exception.
The hereditary dukes of the Tang royal family are now all divided into feudal states, plus the two generations of emperors Xuanzong and Tang Yezong, a total of 32 feudal states, most of which are located in South America, Central America and North America, including the Brazilian territories that were soon obtained.
Richard now understands the intergenerational relatives that are common among ordinary people.
Perhaps having experienced too much in the world, he was especially fond of the youngest prince, and he was very fond of the beautiful and charming Sevillea.
Richard felt that his current health was very good, and in the dormitory, Severia was a little unbearable, and the majesty was still there.
Severia, who is 30 years old, has moisturized teeth and red lips, and her skin glows like jade, and she looks like a young woman in her twenties, and she is very feminine.
She is also very obsessed in the dormitory, no wonder Richard often calls her a "grinding little goblin", especially pampered.
It is precisely for this reason that the Bordeaux Seville Food Company, which was founded by Sevillaa, has now been acquired by five powerful firms in the empire, giving a sky-high price of 8.5 million Tang Yuan.
Today's Seville Food Company no longer needs her to run it personally, but is taken over by the powerful commercial firm of the Tang Empire, and its scale has grown rapidly, and its business tentacles have extended to many areas of the food industry.
With just one trade name, "Seville Foods", Sevilla has become a millionaire and earns huge profits every year with her remaining shares.
All of this stems from the fact that she is favored by the Holy Emperor Taizu.
The powerful big banks of the Tang Empire, the big commercial banks can't squeeze in desperately, if they can get a meager amount of saints, it is worth paying no matter how much they pay.
You know, that's the Holy Emperor Taizu!
Soon after arriving at the Fubo Palace, the Holy Emperor Taizu personally issued an edict and awarded Sevilleia the title of "Concubine Li", ranking among the superbs, and her status in the harem was extremely honorable.
