Chapter 930: Luzon
As more Han people entered the grass primitive city, and these Han people were only sent over after being trained in Chi Ji City, the spies of the North and South Ming went one after another, using various means to extract information from these people, Yang Chendong is the leader of the mercenaries, and the fact that Chi Ji City is his base camp is basically known to the world.
This time, Yang Chendong took the initiative to take the Phnom Penh Dynasty again, which made the North and South Ming feel a strong crisis, so that they also followed his example and took the initiative to start a journey of expansion. For example, the Southern Ming took the initiative to send a large army to the sphere of influence of Zhu Huixuan, the king of Minzhuang, and the Northern Ming also began to mobilize a large army to rush to Datong Mansion and Xuanfu, and wanted to attack the Wara leaders in the Hetao area.
As a result, the situation suddenly became tense. Therefore, Yang Chendong also gave an order to the commander of the Humang army in Shicheng, telling them to keep an eye on Beiming's every move, once they find that they have bad intentions, don't be soft and don't be afraid, the enemy will just clean them up.
At the same time that Shicheng was well defended, Yang Chendong sent a telegram to Hong Jin, the general of Vietnam Province, to send troops to Langshan, and show his presence under the noses of the forces of Beiming and Minzhuang King Zhu Huixuan, and it can be regarded as a warning to both sides to be careful of the existence of this fisherman.
In terms of original meaning, Yang Chendong does not want to see Nanming unify the south now, and a strong and complete Nanming is not what Yang Chendong wants to see now. What he wants to see is a Nanming with serious internal friction, which will play a better role in promoting his stationing there in the future.
And no matter how chaotic the records of the outside bureau are, Yang Chendong's eyes are still on the newly established Cambodian Province, when the royal capital here Phnom Penh City also opened its doors and surrendered, and King Porama was secretly sent to Chichicheng City, the 340,000 people who had been prepared before also went down the Mekong River.
Among the 340,000 people, including the Han Chinese in Chichicheng, the Mongols in Shicheng, and the aliens in Laos and Vietnam provinces, Yang Chendong adopted the method of mixing sand to reduce the proportion of original residents. It's just that in the face of Cambodia, which has a population of 4 million, this more than 300,000 people really can't solve any fundamental problems, which is what makes him the most distressed recently.
Sun Xiaoguang, one of the cadres that Yu Qian, the lord of Chichicheng City highly valued, was less than forty years old after he was found to have the ability to manage and see the overall situation, he began to be reused, and participated in the construction of many Chichicheng City, this time Yang Chendong asked Yu Qian to ask for people, he was entrusted with reuse, and became the first governor of Cambodia Province.
At this time, he was standing in the palace of Phnom Penh City, reporting to Yang Chendong about his work and some of the difficulties he was encountering now.
"Governor Sun, leave a quarter of the palace as a place for me to come here to work in the future, and you can convert other places into a commercial street, compared to the special geographical location of Cambodian Province, this will become an important base for sea commerce, get it right, the business here is still promising, this can also make this a place to create taxes, you must grasp it." Looking at Sun Xiaoguang, Yang Chendong gave guidance according to local conditions.
"Yes, Sixth Young Master, Xiaoguang understands." Sun Xiaoguang replied in a deep voice. Although in terms of age, he was more than a round older than Yang Chendong, but this did not prevent him from worshiping the Sixth Young Master, perhaps there was no one in the entire Red Embedded City who did not respect and disrespect this Sixth Young Master who had brought them everything they had today.
"Compared to Laos and Vietnam provinces, Cambodia is not very large, it should be better managed, I see your performance. By the way, if there are any difficulties, you can put them forward, and if you can solve them, I will help you solve them. Yang Chendong spoke again, this time he saw Sun Xiaoguang, not only encouragement at work, but also to help him solve practical problems.
Everything is ready, it is said that Sun Xiaoguang only needs to develop slowly according to everything that has been formulated, and it is only a matter of time before change and harvest are made. But even if he had the opportunity to make a request, he would not miss it, "Sixth Young Master, if possible, can you relocate some of the people here, you also said just now, Cambodia's territory is not very large, but the population is large, in the face of such a large population base, the land is not enough according to the previous regulations, and everyone can't go to business." Although it is said that some factories will be built here in the future, after all, it will take time, but there will be many people who have nothing to do during this time, and I am worried that it will take a long time...".
"Tell me, how many people do you think is appropriate?" Yang Chendong waited for Sun Xiaoguang to report the data, and then went straight to the core of the problem when he spoke.
"Half, if I can move out half of the population, I can guarantee that everyone here has something to do, the situation will be completely stable, and the future development rate will be good." finally seized the opportunity, Sun Xiaoguang is lion's mouth, and two million people will be migrated out of one mouth.
"Two million?" Yang Chendong didn't expect Sun Xiaoguang's requirements to be so high, but he thought that people were also for work, so he didn't refuse, but quickly nodded and said, "Okay, I'll figure out a way to do this." ”
Originally, he wanted to bargain, but he didn't think that the sixth young master would agree in one bite, Sun Xiaoguang was very happy, and nodded again and again to express his gratitude.
"You don't have to thank me, you're doing a good job too. I can find a way to move you out of the two million, but you have to remember that once this place is restored to the original state, there will still be outsiders to move in, and then you are not allowed to talk about conditions and difficulties. Yang Chendong took a preventive shot in advance.
"Sixth Young Master, don't worry, I know." Sun Xiaoguang made a stand-up and made a guarantee.
Now that Cambodia is just starting to stand, they need the help of others, and when they become strong in the future, they will naturally help other regions, this truth Sun Xiaoguang is very clear.
Soon after, Sun Xiaoguang left with joy, leaving Yang Chendong standing there looking at the map, his brows furrowed.
Looking at his current power, it goes without saying that Chichicheng is a gathering place for Han people, such as Cambodian people are not qualified to go there, and can be ruled out; The city has the smallest population, about 200,000 people, but it is not rich in resources, and it is difficult to be self-sufficient, so it is impossible to send a large number of people there; Vietnam Province already has a population of 3 million, and it is not impossible to accommodate more people, but it will only increase the burden there; The same is true of Lao Province, which has a population of 3 million and also needs to develop and cannot absorb more people.
Even if these forces can't do it, then they can't throw the two million people that Sun Xiaoguang proposed to relocate into the sea. Wait, nautical mile, nautical mile ... An idea flashed in Yang Chendong's mind, and then his gaze fell on the sea area, counting the thoughts of time and layers formed in his mind, and then he punched the location marked on the map named Luzon Island, and there was a smile in his eyes.
In ancient times, Luzon was a small country called Luzon. Since the Song and Yuan dynasties, Chinese merchant ships have often come here to trade. Ancient Chinese books call it "Little Luzon". "Examination of the East and West" and "History of the Ming Dynasty: Foreign Biography" all have special descriptions. In the third year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1405), Zheng He, the eunuch of Sanbao, led a huge fleet to Luzon, that is, Xu Chailao, the leader of overseas Chinese in Jinjiang, was appointed as the governor of Luzon by the edict of Emperor Yongle, and he oversaw the political, economic, military and cultural power of the country, and served for 20 years (1405-1424). During this period, Xu Chailao spared no effort to promote the culture of the Chinese nation, implemented the rule of Confucian etiquette, disseminated the advanced technology of agriculture, fishery and industry in southern Fujian, and greatly developed shipbuilding, textile, pottery, and tea planting, making outstanding contributions to the social stability, economic and trade development, and literary and artistic prosperity of Luzon.
Today, Luzon is still one of the subject states of the Ming Dynasty.
is still the same sentence, after clearly dividing the north and the south, the strength has been greatly damaged, plus the sea has been banned for many years, and the original deterrent to Luzon Island has long been lost, and it has become a lonely place, so why not occupy this place for your own use?
In fact, in 1450, the Arab merchant Saeed Abu Bakr had already established an Islamic regime in the southern part of Luzon, which would later be known as the Philippines. Now they are only establishing their own power on the southern islands, and once they have established themselves, they will not take Luzon themselves, and the other forces will also be tempted, so why should he be polite?
The only thing he needs to worry about is whether the news of the occupation of Luzon will affect the current relationship between the two sides once it reaches the Ming Dynasty in the north and south. After all, Luzon is not far from the Ming Dynasty, and the previous governors were all appointed by the Ming Dynasty.
Yang Chendong is not afraid of trouble, but it is always a good thing to be able to cause less trouble. "Yang Er, I remember that we seem to have captured twenty large and medium-sized warships from Spain, right?" Suddenly, something came to mind, and Yang Chendong asked Yang Er, who was standing aside.
"Yes, young master. Those ships are very different from ours and have been sent to the sea shipyard in Red Castle City for study. Yang Er didn't know why, but he still answered truthfully.
"Very good, in this way, you immediately send a telegram to the Kaohsiung army commander, saying that I want to see him and ask him to come quickly." Yang Chendong nodded. Learning from each other's strengths and weaknesses was what he taught to the "tech guys" in Red City, and he was pleased that they were able to combine it with reality. Of course, he was even happier with the great use that these twenty warships would bring to him next.
General Yang Er sent a telegram, and three days later, the Kaohsiung army commander rushed all the way from the sea to the port of Kampot, and then rode all the way to the Cambodian palace and met Yang Chendong.
