The nomadic tribes in Liaodong, such as the Eight Xibe tribes, plus the North Korean, Ryukyu, and Tumote tribes, are definitely not a small number of people. Adding them together, it is estimated that it will be no big problem to create a few thousand or tens of thousands.

But if so many people don’t dilute them, they will still keep them the same. What’s the difference between them?

Who will be the one who will cause trouble? Will we send troops to quell the rebellion again?

Instead of doing this, it would be better to break up these people little by little, and move them out to guard the border according to dozens of Ming people and one or two naturalized people.

Just like the four great irons in later generations, these migrated naturalized people guarded the border with the original Ming people, and they had a friendship with each other. In addition, the marriages of generations have been integrated, and these people are just around the corner to become the Ming people.

The biggest problem is the proportional issue.

One milliliter of crane red mixed with ten kilograms of water will probably make people feel a little stomachache.

What if ten kilograms of water are mixed with 100 milliliters of crane red? Will it cause death?

No one dares to make a promise, so it is necessary to ensure that enough Ming people are mixed with enough naturalized people. This is the solution to the problem.

As for what is divided by ethnicity, what ethnicity should each person be? What ethnicity should be written on the household registration booklet?

Sorry, don’t you treat us as the people of the Ming Dynasty? Since this is the case, it seems understandable that we don’t have the same mind as the Ming Dynasty?

Therefore, when Zhu Youjian proposed to Emperor Chongzhen to move some people, Emperor Chongzhen put his mind on it and started to do it little by little.

Zhu Youjian felt that it was indifferent.

What do you want? There are people, a large number of people. Only with more people can the Ming Dynasty develop Xinming Island faster, and so many good things on Xinming Island can be brought back and become things from the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, the more benefits the Ming Dynasty received, the more benefits the vassal king would receive. Zhu Youjian could clearly understand the relationship between prosperity and prosperity.

After considering it for a while, Zhu Youjian bowed and said, "Your Majesty, if you move the Liaodong tribes, North Korea, Ryukyu and other people, I think it is not advisable to have too many, otherwise it will be easy to cause trouble?"

Emperor Chongzhen laughed and said, "Of course, my plan is to move the 20 Ming people with a proportion of people from North Korea, Ryukyu, etc., and there are also benefits for them."

Zhu Youjian felt that he might be mentally abnormal. Every time he heard Emperor Chongzhen say that we are a family or that I have benefits to give to others, his heart was a little trembling.

What exactly is it?

Zhu Youjian, who couldn't figure it out, simply stopped thinking about it, and Zhu Zhuohong, who had no sense of existence, accompanied Emperor Chongzhen to have a meal and went out of the palace honestly.

Emperor Chongzhen once again turned his attention to the huge map.

The biggest problem of the Ming Dynasty now is definitely not a natural disaster, nor a man-made disaster, nor a foreign enemy, but a lack of population and insufficient vassal kings.

No matter how terrible natural disasters are, you can do your best to make up for such unavoidable things. In fact, the problem is not very big.

For example, if there was not enough food in the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen could buy it or grab it. In short, there were many ways.

For example, in man-made disasters, the people of the Ming Dynasty could have a meal, and even if they could maintain the food and clothing of the whole family, no one would think of rebelling.

Some of the remaining guys who rebel to achieve their personal goals don’t have to care at all that they really think that millions of soldiers in the Ming Dynasty are put on good looks?

As for foreign enemies, the Tatars and Jiannu, the Spanish and the Dutch, they will tell you with tears what the outcome of being an enemy with the Ming Dynasty is.

Therefore, at this point, the biggest problem is the problem of insufficient people.

After waiting for several days, Emperor Chongzhen waited for Guo Yunhou who hurried into the palace.

After the ceremony of the audience, Guo Yunhou bowed directly and said, "I will tell you that the yellow books of the capital have been made, and other regions are also making them one after another."

Emperor Chongzhen said with a hush, "What's the result?"

In fact, if Guo Yunhou doesn't say it, Emperor Chongzhen also knew what the result was, and it would be a very good result. Guo Yunhou wouldn't have hurriedly ran to the palace and came to see him without seeing him at this time.

As Emperor Chongzhen expected, Guo Yunhou said with a tangled look: "Your Majesty, there are 1.95 million words in the capital, 750,000 more than during the Tianqi period, and 500,000 more than the last count."

Emperor Chongzhen laughed twice, but didn't care.

The census during the Apocalypse period recorded the number of people with registered household registration in Beijing, 1.2 million.

But in fact, the population of the entire Ming Dynasty capital was far more than 1.2 million, because this number did not include those people who were not registered in the capital, nor did they include hidden households, fleeing households, and cheap households!

It was originally expected that the extra 500,000 people in the hidden households would be considered a big deal!

However, Emperor Chongzhen did not expect that the Ministry of Revenue and Shuntian Prefecture would count the population so quickly that the entire Shuntian Prefecture had been counted in less than half a month.

However, Emperor Chongzhen still underestimated the number of hidden households and fugitive households, or overestimated the efficiency of the Ming Dynasty's work.

Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen looked dissatisfied, Guo Yunhou gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, the number of Dingkou in the capital is not included in the surrounding counties and townships."

Emperor Chongzhen was really frustrated now. Only one capital city has counted so many people, what about the rest?

Not to mention counting the entire Ming Dynasty Dingkou, just counting the hidden households in northern Zhili and the escaped households can probably fill Xinming Island?

Who is the problem of insufficient people becoming a problem of too many people?

Also, these guys are really thinking about taking advantage of me!

Before the good policy of immigrating to provide land with the border, all of these guys were born as waiters, and eight out of them were called waiters. Now that there is a good policy of giving land, even the tenth and the eleventh are out!

After shaking his head, Emperor Chongzhen threw this ridiculous idea out of his mind.

There will indeed be a lot more people, and it is not surprising that after this census is completed, it will be suddenly discovered that the population of the Ming Dynasty has developed to 300 million.

If there are too many people, go to war and occupy more territory, so that you can support it?

Anyway, if the census is not a census, the population is so small, but some of them have been added with hidden attributes and cannot see them themselves, but these people actually exist!

After pondering for a while, Emperor Chongzhen continued: "Continue to make bookmaking, not many more Dingkous from the Ming Dynasty, continue to make bookmaking, and no excavation is allowed."

Guo Yunhou wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Your Majesty, there are so many more denunciations in a while. If they all want to move to the border, I am afraid that my Ming Dynasty may not have many places to do it?"

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "If you don't, go and rob it! What did the Ming Dynasty raise millions of soldiers for? I can't use their swords to obtain more land for the people of the Ming Dynasty. What do I want them?"

Your old man is right, just be happy, you can’t afford to offend me, say goodbye!

Guo Yunhou chose to do things honestly according to Emperor Chongzhen's instructions, and he was old, so there was no need to do anything else. It was justified to listen to the emperor's instructions.

As for what His Majesty the Emperor said about sending troops to steal territory, Guo Yunhou said that he had heard nothing.

Guo Yunhou left the palace, but Emperor Chongzhen once again turned his attention to the map.

I have a saying that I want to say!

A capital city alone would inexplicably produce 500,000 more people. I believe that Nanjing City is also like a bird. By the same token, as long as each city has an additional 100,000 people, the Ming Dynasty will be able to produce tens of millions of people!

Then, each township and county will carefully count, will you be surprised to find that there are more than 100 million people?

Calculated based on the allocation of 100 acres of land by one person, these extra people need 10 billion acres of land?

No, the math teacher died too early. With such a large number, I can't calculate how many square kilometers it is...

Emperor Chongzhen, who originally thought he had a lot of territory and was not enough for the vassal kings and the people, suddenly felt that his territory was not enough for him.

Since it is not enough, and I have bragged just now that I want to grab it, it would be better to take a look at the map and think about which land to grab it?

After thinking for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen simply ordered people to send Zhu Chunchen who had just driven back to the capital and Zhang Zhiji who had returned to the capital with him to rest and recuperate.

After Zhu Chunchen and others entered the palace to pay tribute, Emperor Chongzhen pointed to the map and said to Zhu Chunchen: "Tell Amin and Mangourtai, Geely Gigis, and Yili and Tulupan must be taken into his hands before Chongzhen's thirteenth year."

Zhu Chunchen asked in confusion: "Your Majesty? The Tatars have not been completely pacified yet. It was originally planned that they would not have temporarily recuperated for two years before launching an offensive?"

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "If you don't wait, the Northern Army will be dispatched to the north to wait for a break, so that they can see blood. In short, time will not wait for anyone."

Zhu Chunchen asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, what trouble has happened?"

Emperor Chongzhen returned to the chair and sat down, then said, "The capital has been making yellow books recently. Is Duke Cheng aware of it?"

Zhu Chunchen bowed and said, "I do know that the family has also registered and recorded, but is this matter related to the advance attack on Tulupan?"

Emperor Chongzhen said: "In the capital city alone, the Dingkou in the 12th year of Chongzhen had reached 1.95 million, which was 750,000 more than the Tianqi period, and 500,000 more than the last time the Yellow Book was built."

Zhu Chunchen and others almost instantly understood that Emperor Chongzhen had too many people, and the emperor was worried that the land would not be divided enough!

After thinking for a long time, Zhu Chunchen felt that the problem of doing this was not too big.

After all, it is just accelerating the speed of killing those barbarians. The guards in the north that have been fighting for years should be able to rest. It is just that the soldiers in the south are called to go north, so there should be no big problem.

As for whether the Southern Army could adapt to the northern environment, or whether it could withstand the rare climate in the south in the past winter, Zhu Chunchen was not very worried.

The founding of the Ming Dynasty was the fundamental purpose of using the southern army to chase the Mongolian Yuan into the Shuomo. What a big deal if we do it again?

Even if the southern garrisons are more corrupt than the northern ones, even if the southern garrisons cannot adapt to the coldness of the north, what can we do?

At least, the Southern Imperial Guards and the garrisons around Nanzhili have proved that they can still fight in Luzon and Java!

What's more, can't I adapt to the thick cotton coat when I distribute it in winter?

After thinking back and forth in his heart, Zhu Chunchen bowed and said, "Your Majesty, if you transfer the southern army to the north, you can mobilize the soldiers of the guards in Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong and Guangxi, Sichuan and other places.

First, these places are now extremely peaceful and there are no combat tasks in normal times. Secondly, it can also allow the soldiers from the south to adapt to the northern terrain and environment more, and prepare for the battle to the north in the future."

Chongzhen nodded and said, "Where is the final decision for the soldiers of the guard station to be transferred, the Governor's Office of the Five Army has the final say. I don't plan to intervene. But I have a request."

Zhu Chunchen bowed and said, "Please give me instructions."

Emperor Chongzhen said: "According to this northern expedition of Tatars, anyone over 16 years old will join the army and let them learn more. When necessary, let them go to battle."

It has been a few years since the establishment of the young army. It is time for these children to see what the real battlefield looks like. Only in this way can these children slowly change the military system of the Ming Dynasty in the future.

Because the Ming Dynasty's military system is far from perfect now!

Zhu Chunchen bowed and replied: "I obey the order."

Anyway, the eldest son and the second son of the emperor are still many years away from the age of sixteen, so they don’t need to go into battle, so the remaining young army is more indifferent. If the eldest son and the second son of the emperor also go to the battle with the army, Zhu Chunchen asked himself if he didn’t have the courage to let them go into battle in person.

Zhang Zhiji spoke, "Your Majesty, I would like to lead my army to Tulupan!"

Emperor Chongzhen shook his head and said, "No, the Beijing camp, the new army, the troops of Liu Aiqing and Xia Aiqing, and the troops of Battel must all stay in the capital for rest.

Three months later, Liu Aiqing and Xia Aiqing led their troops back to Nurkandus, and Zhang Aiqing and Bater led their troops to the Leshi Grassland to obey orders."

Zhang Zhi asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, the Tatar tribes have been destroyed. As long as the people are steadily moved to the Leshi Grassland, they will naturally be pacified in three to five years. Why should we send another army away?"

Emperor Chongzhen shook his head and said, "Mosbatur Khan led more than a thousand cavalry to escape, but I have suffered nearly 40,000 cavalry casualties!

This loss is a big loss! My request is very simple. Zhang Aiqing and Bater led their troops to search for Mosbatur Khan on the Leshi Grassland, find him, and kill him! Build all the remaining thousand cavalry to me into a Jingguan!"
