Chapter 163: The population is not enough
When it comes to being an emperor, Lao Zhu who started with a bowl can definitely be called the ceiling among the emperor. Not to mention the insignificant little chickens like Kang Mazi and Qian Dian, even the famous Li Erfeng had to admire Lao Zhu.
Is compulsory education awesome? Lao Zhu has done it, and even the school uniform, leave, and credit systems have been created.
Is the fifty-five VIP system awesome? Lao Zhu not only did it, but also did it the opposite - for example, those who understand it cannot walk in the middle of the road, only pigskin boots are allowed, and all the tribes are forbidden to marry each other.
"Any Mongolian people who are married to the Chinese must be willing to marry each other. They are not allowed to marry each other. Those who violate the crimes are 80, and men and women become slaves. Those who are unwilling to marry each other and those who are advised to marry each other should obey this kind of marriage, and there is no restriction."
This kind of operation is the real fusion, rather than adding v to a few decimals.
But maybe it was the minor official of the Ministry of Justice who was distracted when copying the "Da Ming Law", or maybe it was the "Da Ming Law" obtained by Zhu Jinsong was deleted and revised by Qian Dian Laogou. In short, the last sentence "It's not in the restriction" is gone.
What can Zhu Jinsong do about this situation? Of course, he chose Liangzang. Could it be that he had to re-revise the "Da Ming Law"?
However, the "Ming Dynasty Law" made many people unsatisfied.
As we all know, Zhu Jinsong has always been a very democratic emperor and respects the opinions of the people before doing things. For example, the year when Zhu Jinsong ascended the throne, which is the "first year of the Holy Emperor" among the people, the Ming Dynasty once conducted a census and registration.
According to Zhu Jinsong's request, government officials in various places in the Ming Dynasty asked the people about their opinions when registering: "Do you admit that you are the people of the Ming Dynasty? Should you change the nation to Han?"
Everything is voluntary, and there is absolutely no forced or forced. If you are unwilling to admit that you are the people of the Ming Dynasty, you can leave within a time limit. If you are willing to admit that you are the people of the Ming Dynasty, you are very willing to change the column of ethnic groups into Han. After all, it involves a lot of issues such as studying, joining the army, entering the government, tax rates, etc.
Very democratic, right?
But what do you think about Tian Wu, Gansu? What do you think about the blue hats in the alley that make people pick on, that is, the one who gives you a gift to Leye?
You Emperor Zhu is not bullying others!
As for what a person named Ci Leye was once a Jinyiwei, he was given the surname "Zhao" by Emperor Chengzu for reporting that King Zhu Xu of Zhou was a meritorious in rebellion. The person named Ci Leye in Zhao in the Hutong said that he did not know and was impossible.
Moreover, they also want to enjoy all benefits except joining the army, such as the division of land, homesteads, children can study for free, the same tax rate as the Ming merchants, the same qualifications for official positions, etc., and they are unwilling to leave the Zhaojin Hutong, the reason is the "land of the ancestral residence".
Of course, it would be fine to let them leave, that is, Zhu Jinsong or the Ming Dynasty had to arrange ships to send them back to their true ancestral land.
In this case, Zhu Jinsong, the Ming emperor, was also helpless.
People don’t want to, and Zhu Jinsong cannot force it. The treasury of the Ming Dynasty is very empty. Liu Huaiwen, the leader of the financial system, still blocks the gates of the palace from time to time, asks for money to buy cats. Where did they get the money to arrange ships to send them back to Yicai Joy?
In desperation, Zhu Jinsong could only tell the matter to the Central Army Governor's Office and the Right Army Governor's Office to handle it in order to speed up the construction of roads in the Ming Dynasty.
(I won’t write this part in detail, long live the understanding)
...
There were many messy things in the Ming Dynasty, so many that Zhu Jinsong, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, felt upset, and even felt like he was pressing down.
The problem of those stupid scholars was just solved, and there was a problem with each other. After solving the problem of self-marriage and taking back Gansu, new problems occurred in Jiaozhi.
First, Bai Ziqi brought troops into Annan under the banner of "Returning to the Kingdom of Li Weiqi", and then Zhu Jinsong sent someone to hook up with Bai Ziqi, saying that as long as Bai Ziqi could pacify Jiaozhi, Li Weiqi died suddenly at the right time, and justifiedly let Annan be exterminated, Zhu Jinsong conferred Bai Ziqi as the Marquis of Anle.
Bai Ziqi thought that although Anle Hou was one level lower than Anle Gong, the title of Anle Hou was safe. At least there was no need to worry about anything like tying the machine, so Bai Ziqi responded.
However, after Bai Ziqi led his troops into Annan, he found that Annan's situation was far from that in Guangxi. It would be better to say something about language barriers. After all, the aristocratic families in Annan would speak Chinese and write men, but the climate here is so fucking!
So, just after killing several Annan rebels, Li Weiqi, the Annan king, suddenly died of illness. Li Weiqi's son also died suddenly, and his brothers, nephews and others all died suddenly.
Don’t worry about whether the Annan people believe it or not, Bai Ziqi believes it anyway.
Then Bai Ziqi couldn't wait to send someone to send a letter to Zhu Jinsong, claiming that the time had come and Li Weiqi had died suddenly. After some efforts, he, Anlehou, had already persuaded the Jiaozhi family members to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.
In order to prove that what he said is true, Bai Ziqi also provided a letter of surrender based on the handprints of the leaders of the Jiaozhi family.
Bai Ziqi could even swear with his conscience that the handprint on this book of suing for surrender is definitely true.
Bai Ziqi said that as long as Zhu Jinsong, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, agreed, he would immediately call himself King Annan, and then wait for Zhu Jinsong's army to arrive at Jiaozhi, he would immediately surrender. Whether it was a meat-baring and sheep or other routines, he would be willing to cooperate with the performance unconditionally.
Zhu Jinsong did not doubt Bai Ziqi's sincerity, nor did he doubt the authenticity of the book of surrender that Bai Ziqi brought, because the handprints on the book of surrender were all pressed on by Bai Ziqi personally with the fingers of the leaders of the Jiaozhi clan. Later, it took more than half an hour to dig a hole and bury people.
To put it bluntly, that bastard Bai Ziqi was about to go back to Guangxi or become a rich man in Jinan, so he simply launched a large-scale war on Jiaozhi. He basically killed those who should be killed or not. So Zhu Jinsong not only had to consider the issue of sending officials to Jiaozhi, but also had to consider the issue of immigrating to the border.
The question is how many people are there in the Ming Dynasty?
With a population of 300 million, this number seems to be a large number, but in average, there are not many people in every province and every prefecture.
At least there is no problem of insufficient land.
On the contrary, what Ming Dynasty lacks most now is not land, but enough population. Especially with the little bit of industrialization, the demand for population has also shown a straight upward trend.
The increase in population demand means that the workshop owners need to provide better treatment to retain people, and better treatment means improvement of people's quality of life.
The quality of life has improved, who is willing to immigrate to a smoky place like Jiaozhi?
Dividing the land?
What's so strange about dividing land? Whose family in the Ming Dynasty has no land yet?
Deliver a concubine?
This is not impossible to consider. After all, the Ming Dynasty is in a state of more men and fewer women, and Jiaozhi is almost killed by Bai Ziqi to become a daughter country. Young and strong people who immigrated to the past must not have to worry about marrying a wife and taking concubines.
However, what made Zhu Jinsong feel that the Ming Dynasty had already begun to prepare for immigration, and Zhu Jinsong was also ready to enthrone Bai Ziqi. However, Nguyen Phuc Ying, who was in exile in Siam, suddenly became more and more powerful.
This is mainly because Bai Ziqi is too impatient.
If any normal person is, even if you think about it, you can imagine that Li Weiqi's death is absolutely abnormal. Even if Li Weiqi's death is normal, then why would Li Weiqi's old mother and his wife, children and the elderly die together?
There are also the aristocratic families in Jiaozhi. At least in Jiaozhi, they are like local snakes. How many people killed on the surface of Bai Ziqi? How many people escaped?
The families who escaped saw that Li Weiqi was finished and all the rebels were finished. Bai Ziqi, the evil star, started a massacre in Jiaozhi, and as a result, there was only one Nguyen Phuc Ying left in Annan, so the families of Jiaozhi naturally chose to surrender to Nguyen Phuc Ying.
Then Nguyen Phuc Ying stood up.
With the help of the Jiaozhi family, Nguyen Phuc Ying is no longer the humble exile king who sent people to ask for help from France and the Ming Dynasty.
Nguyen Phuc Ying first organized the Jiaozhi family members to make secret preparations, and then asked Siam to borrow soldiers under the banner of restoring the country.
After making many preparations, Nguyen Phucing sent someone to send a letter to Zhu Jinsong, saying that the Li family had been extinct and other rebels also sang Liangliang, so he could only serve as King Annan and requested Zhu Jinsong, the Ming Emperor, to be enthroned.
Of course, the reason why Nguyen Phucing submitted a letter to Zhu Jinsong for a title was entirely due to etiquette - whether you enthrone or not, I will be the King of Annan. The difference is that you want to enthrone the title, and our two families look good on their faces. If you don’t enthrone the title, everyone will completely break up.
In addition to submitting a letter to Zhu Jinsong for a title, Ruan Phoe-ying did not delay sending troops to confront Bai Ziqi.
Bai Ziqi was stunned all of a sudden.
The main reason why he was able to successfully take Jiaozhi before was that Bai Ziqi received responses from the aristocratic families and the people of Jiaozhi under the banner of restoring the Li family. As Li Weiqi's family suddenly died suddenly, Jiaozhi's aristocratic families were killed by Bai Ziqi, and the remaining Jiaozhi people were unwilling to do so.
Later, in order to completely stabilize the situation in Jiaozhi, Bai Ziqi simply raised a butcher knife to the people of Jiaozhi, and even pushed the people of Jiaozhi to Nguyen Phuc Ying.
The turbulent problems such as the unfamiliar terrain, the people's hearts, the disgrace, the lack of military strength, and other messy problems have forced Bai Ziqi to start shrinking his troops.
The problem is that the reason why Bai Ziqi ran from Guangxi to Jiaozhi was originally a waste of time, so how many troops were under his command? After entering Jiaozhi, he fought repeatedly, and the lost troops could not be replenished...
Therefore, Bai Ziqi didn't have time to consider whether it was Anle Hou or Anle Gong, so he quickly sent someone to send a letter to Zhu Jinsong, saying that he was incompetent and accidentally messed up the situation in Jiaozhi, and he didn't ask for any reward for being a marquis. As long as Zhu Jinsong could send someone to clean up the mess of Jiaozhi, it would be fine, even if he had committed suicide, he would have no problem.
Of course, Zhu Jinsong also knew that Bai Ziqi's so-called apology for death was nonsense - Zhu Jinsong sent someone to Jiaozhi to let him die, and he dared to kill the envoys sent by Zhu Jinsong to death.
After all, he is a ruthless person who dares to kill the officials and rebel. If he dares to kill the first time, he will definitely dare to kill the second time. Just listen to this kind of scene. If anyone really believes it, he will be a fool.
But no matter what, the mess Bai Ziqi has created still has to be cleaned up.
Not to mention that Jiaozhi is the territory of Zhongyuan Hall since ancient times, even if it is not, Zhu Jinsong, the emperor of the Supreme Kingdom of the Heavenly Kingdom, has the obligation to punish the people, right?
The problem is that it is not as easy as I imagined to enter the army—climate, geography, people’s support, and a lot of messy problems.
Especially when it comes to logistics issues, it is even more troublesome.
Otherwise, why would Zhu Zhanji abandon Jiaozhi?
