"The Liaohai has been frozen on a large scale, and the Yalu River has been unable to pass through. The news in the Dandong area can only be transmitted by North Korea, which is time-consuming and laborious." Liang Xiangjian threw a document on his desk, then rubbed his face hard, and said in a tired tone: "Last year, he decided to go to Dandong to settle down. Now, half a year has passed, and more than 45,000 victims of the East and West Shandong governments have been in a panic. For this reason, the king and minister of the North Korea Kingdom have made great efforts. The various food, seeds, clothing, livestock and so on in the past six months have been dependent on them. Even iron and building materials have been circulating by the North Korea Kingdom.

The supply of the rare people is not a big expense! In addition, Jiang Youdao, the general of the Imperial Camp of Korea, led an army of 3,000 crossing the river to reinforce the flanks of our Dandong County, and warned the Qing army in the direction of Kuandian and other directions. Although its combat effectiveness was extremely suspicious, and he was also in a hurry to face a small group of Qing troops raided, he could play some roles, not to mention that their food and salary expenses were all the responsibility of the North Korean local governments on the other side of the Yalu River. We don’t have to spend money, and the effect is quite great. As the saying goes, you have to give a sweet date to eat when you hit the face. If you always call people to do things, you must give benefits. What is the next step in this policy toward North Korea?

Speaking of this, the continuous drought in Shandong has lasted for more than two years. A large number of victims from the four Western prefectures have traveled to the East Coast people through various channels. In order to resettle them and actively carry out production and self-rescue, the Denlai Development Team arranged at least 80,000 people to Jeju Island, Busan Port, Wonsanjin, Dandong and other places.

Among them, Jeju Island, Busan and Wonsan have undertaken the resettlement of at least 40,000 people, and the pressure is undoubtedly great. However, since the yellow-clothed thief is known as a "thief", it is not a false reputation. Liang Xiangjian and Liang openly ordered that most of the food be concentrated on Jeju Island to supply the victims (about 15,000 people) placed on the island to eat and reclaim; in addition, about 30,000 people were placed in Busan and Wonsan.

Naturally, there is not enough food for land, but it doesn't matter. You can "borrow" from the surrounding Korean prefectures and counties! Who has no urgent problem? The people of the North Korea Kingdom have always been well-educated and well-mannered and governed the world with moral articles. How could they be indifferent to the victims on the east coast without food? It is hard to say that if you have a bite of food, you can give the victims a bite of food, and we will take the initiative to deliver it to the door, so that the soldiers of the East Kingdom will not be able to come to the door for their own pursuit. How noble is this!

Well, the above is nonsense! The real situation is that the grain reserves of the people on the East Coast are really tight. Liang Xiangjian, the captain of the Denlai Development Team, placed a large number of Shandong victims in Jeju, Busan, Wonsan and other places to eat. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to eat "big families" of the North Koreans to save their own food consumption - of course, this number has been strictly estimated to prevent the North Koreans from feeling too heavy and unable to bear it, although the burden is actually very heavy at present.

However, after years of development, the above three places have a large population, and there are actually not many wastelands available for reclaiming. This means that more than half of the Shandong victims are actually not able to plant in these places. Therefore, they can only repair houses, roads, docks, cities and other infrastructure. The victims on Jeju Island may also help grazing and deal with strategic materials such as leather, wool, cow horns, and cow tendons, but there is nothing more.

In addition, with the arrival of several batches of immigrants last year, Dandong County, which was not long after its establishment, became the largest Xinbikenken county under the Denglai Development Team. A total of 45,000 Shandong victims flocked to this wild land on the right bank of the Yalu River. In addition to transporting a batch of grain, livestock and seeds from Yantai and other places, they were all eaten by the Koreans and used by the Koreans, which put the Li Dynasty officials and civilians in Yizhou and other places under great pressure. After all, the northern part of North Korea has always been a barren place with many mountains and few lands, and the grain output was very limited, but they had to try their best to open up the land on the east bank opposite the Yalu River. How could they feel!

Liang Xiangjian even vaguely heard that the North Korean Peace Road, which is responsible for the main grain supply task, and the Hwanghae Road are suffering from the expropriation and transport of food (North Korean local officials take the opportunity to exploit, and corruption is also a factor that cannot be ignored). The people's anti-East sentiment is growing, and they are uglier. There are probably dozens of folk songs cursing the people of the East Coast. This shows the disgust of the North Korean people towards the mountain they are on their backs!

What do the Koreans think? If a tough and mean person is here, they may not bother to pay attention to it. They will only blackmail and blackmail to achieve their goals. As for the life and death of ordinary people in North Korea, it is my fault? However, who made Captain Liang Xiangjian Liang a kind-hearted "gentleman"? He felt that over the years - especially in the past two years - the three major vassal states in the Far East have sucked too much blood on the Koreans. At this time, it must be slowed down and cannot be squeezed into death. Therefore, he wanted to give them some "benefits" to appease the resentment of the Korean Kingdom.

"The current North Korean king is Li Qi. Well, he was not a crown prince, and he had no ambitions. Such a person is good, good!" To be honest, Liang Xiangjian did not recognize this word, so there was also a pinyin marked with his pen on the document, and he only heard him say: "Xiao Liao, you rarely come to Shandong once. How about it? Help me summarize it?"

"Haha, I have less contact with things in North Korea on weekdays because I am too far away. However, after the establishment of Boli County, as the Qing Dynasty's strength gradually retreated from the northeast, my Black Water Development Team will also begin to advance southward along the Ussuri River. In this case, it may be that it will be bounded with the Koreans' sphere of influence in a few years, so I have studied this country a little before..." Liao Xiaoyao, dressed in military uniform, sat on the sofa chair beside Liang Xiangjian and said with a smile.

The Boli County that Liao Xiaoyao mentioned just now was newly established in the second half of last year. It has a total of four settlements, including Boli Town, Tianhui Township (located near Hall City, Russia in later Russia), Luofeng Township (located near Smidovic Town, Russia in later Russia), and Linglong Township (located near Vyazemsky City, Russia in later Russia). It is a total of four settlements, which are about 6,000 people in the Han Dynasty. Of course, this is only on the book. I believe that there are still many tribal people in the vast county of Boli County and are not included in the county government statistics. However, this is not a work that can be completed in a short time and requires long-term and arduous naturalization.

After the establishment of Boli County, the East Coast people will also go up the Ussuri River and invade the upstream areas, collect and naturalize the natives, and completely hold this large area of ​​rich land in their hands. Don’t underestimate this part of the land. In history, Tsarist Russia attached great importance to this vast plain near the Sea of ​​Japan, mainly because it has a large population and relatively rich resources. Colonization can effectively reduce costs. Of course, this last one is ineffective for the East Coast people. What they value most is to make the territory of the Black Water Development Team larger and make plans for the future if they are in the future.

You should know that as the people on the east coast began to take root in Dandong County, the Qing court, which was already inadequate in Liaodong, finally gave up the plan to compete with the people on the east coast in the northeastern region. They were worried that if they put too much power into the Heilongjiang River Basin, they would not have enough power to resist the invasion and encroachment of yellow-clad thieves in Liaodong. Compared with the two sides of Heilongjiang, which is a bitter and cold place, the denser and richer Liaodong was more valued by the Qing Dynasty, although their roots have almost been transferred to the Beijing area within the pass.

It is precisely based on this consideration that the Qing Dynasty and the East Coast people in the Heilongjiang River Basin expanded and contracted, almost at the same time. That is, the Qing Dynasty gave up the opportunity to exert influence on the Heilongjiang River Basin and drew elite main forces to withdraw from Liaodong to fight with the East Coast people. Anyway, the local natives have not bought much of the Qing Dynasty accounts over the years and have been greatly infiltrated by the East Coast and Russia. So this time, they simply withdrew from the North Manchuria and focused on defending the South Manchuria. This may be the most suitable strategic choice for them.

The Qing Dynasty withdrew - although there were still some nails left in Ningguta City, it was only a matter of time to be completely squeezed away. Just like the three deputy governors of the three surnames, they did not fight a battle and forced you to stay. The East Coast people would naturally not miss the great opportunity to swallow the power vacuum left by the whale. Therefore, you saw that after the Manchu County withdrew some troops, gave up some territory, and moved many tribes inward, they finally set up. From the scope of the county, they also followed the Ussuri River to the south and finally extended their tentacles to the later Hingkai Lake and Vladivostok, which almost bordered the Hamkyung Road of the Kingdom of Korea. Therefore, Liao Xiaoyao just said that "studying the Kingdom of Korea" was necessary. After all, business needs.

"The country of North Korea is afraid of power but not virtue. When he sees small profits, he is generous. He is willing to do great things and cherish his life." Liao Xiaoyao organized a little language and said, "For example, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, this country took the opportunity to expand its territory and push the border line along the Yalu River. Then he was preparing to attack Liaodong in the north, but he was afraid of something very much. Finally, he changed the dynasty, which made people laugh. According to my opinion, this funny country does not need to pay too much attention. It can only be overwhelmed with strength. If we hold on to it, we should not let it stand it and fight to the death."

"Of course this possibility is very low." Liao Xiaoyao added, "When Huang Taiji attacked North Korea, he forced them into what he wanted, how harsh the conditions were. These cowards still agreed, so their bottom line was very low, and they were just trying to squeeze them out."

Liang Xiangjian was helpless when he heard this and said, "Xiao Liao, I came to see how to better integrate North Korea into our economic system in the Far East. Only by using interests to tie it to our chariots is the most reliable. What you said about threatening by force is of course effective, but is it really more than what we get after economic integration?"

"Then give the East Coast North Korean companies greater power to further penetrate North Korea's economic activities. Hasn't North Korean medicinal materials, grain, iron, honey, fruits and vegetables always been the focus of our purchase?" Liao Xiaoyao said, "We are asking them to vigorously expand the output of these commodities and then export them to us in exchange for other commodities at hand. The role we positioned should be a trade intermediary like the Dutch, so we regard the Sea of ​​Japan and Liaohai as our Baltic Sea and the North Sea. For this reason, I think we can domesticate the Dabo Botanical Garden or other places, cultivate crop seeds that have been cultivated for so many years and sell some of them to the Kingdom of Korea to help them improve their agriculture.

The yield of crops is also of great benefit to us. In addition, the current industrial foundation of Heishui County is still quite good. Although it cannot be compared with the local area, some simple hydraulic machinery, foot machinery, and animal power machinery can still be manufactured. These can be tried to be exported to North Korea, especially the hydraulic crusher, animal power pump, pulley suitcase and other machines used in mines. The production is not complicated and does not require precision. It is most suitable for export to North Korea. After all, their iron ore production has increased. Heishui County can only import more iron materials every year, and produce more machines, weapons, agricultural tools, tools and other things, which are essential for the development of productivity."

Liang Xiangjian smiled slightly when he heard this. Liao Xiaoyao's idea still coincided with him. In fact, if North Korea has a high level of productivity and abundant grain reserves this time, why would it be so embarrassing to collect "East Fees" and "East Food" in order to collect "East Food"? Besides, the Kingdom of Korea will also be an important fulcrum for the East Coast in the Far East in the future. If it develops well, the benefits to the East Coast Republic will be self-evident.

On January 1, 1667, after determining the future policy toward North Korea, Liang Xiangjian took a boat to Esplanade and inspected how Wei Boqiu was doing there. The result was still sloppy. Nearly 30,000 Shandong victims who had been resettled in an orderly manner. The collective farms and farms left by immigrants in Huai'an Prefecture, this newly opened farm had already harvested a season of rye last year, and the output was quite good, and at least a large part of the food consumption could be solved by itself.

Of course, what Liang Xiangjian didn't know was that if Wei Boqiu and his son and their confidants were not constantly smuggling population, materials and machines to North America, the development of the Hokkien might have been faster. The North American Democratic and Freedom Federation established by Wei's family had exceeded 10,000, and had controlled the entire island of Hokkien Island (Vancouver Island). A stronghold was built near the original site of Seattle in the later city of Vancouver and Seattle, which was officially the first step to occupying the mainland. As for which step this small country will develop in the future, this is not something we can know.
