Gao Jianguo slapped the table and said gloomily: "Paralyzed, then we can't sit still, let's do nothing." Our opinion is still the same sentence, save one is one, do your best, and listen to the destiny of God. Immediately mobilize all the ships that can be used in the Far East, all sail to the coast of Daming, and then transfer the sea forces of Nanyang, Ceylon and other places. Give orders to the ships returning from the South Seas and Ceylon, whether they rob or buy, and when they return, they must fill me with food.

In addition, the storage center, the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, and the logistics department of the Military Commission immediately opened various war-ready warehouses and mobilized grassroots militias from all over the country to assist in transporting grain, and supported the company's various collection points of displaced people in Daming. The infrastructure construction department of the Construction Committee stopped all the projects and built homeless private land along both sides of the Liao River at the mouth of the Liao River, and the more the better. All units of the Military Commission and reserve forces should also carry out general mobilization to assist the company in receiving the bank. The grassroots cadres of the Nationalities Affairs Committee gave me door-to-door work to buy grain from peasant households all over Liaodong, telling them that we in the Far East would pay a high price. ”

Hu Wei next to him also said in a deep voice: "I agree with Lao Gao's opinion, the company should mobilize." We can't just watch the victims of the Ming Dynasty alone, although we in the Far East can't save all the victims, but at least we must do our best. ”

After Gao Jianguo and Hu Wei expressed their opinions, the conference room fell silent again, and no one spoke for a long time.

Everyone's psychology is very complicated, if they let them watch those displaced people in the Ming Dynasty starve to death like this, they really can't bear it, but everyone knows the famous Chongzhen drought in history, it is definitely not a joke. From the telegram sent by Li Ming, they sensed that the situation of this catastrophe was definitely not a joke.

If the Far East begins to mobilize, mobilize all forces. Large-scale collection of displaced people, which is transported from all over the Ming Dynasty every year, may exceed one million. At present, the grain stored in the major strategic reserve warehouses in the Far East is only enough for the current population of the Far East controlled area to consume for two years.

However, the great drought in Chongzhen will last for nearly ten years, and the number of displaced people will increase year by year, if the Far East receives displaced people on such a scale every year. The annual consumption of food and other materials alone can drag down the Far East.

At present, the company is in a critical stage of development, the company has been following a steady development plan, if a large number of displaced people flock to come, it will inevitably have an impact on the work of the Far East.

Wang He glanced at the members of the conference room, then took a deep breath and said solemnly: "I also agree with Gao Jianguo's opinion, no matter what. You can't see death without help. Although the arrival of a large number of displaced people will bring a certain amount of pressure to the company, in the long run, it is not an opportunity. As long as we survive this difficult period, it is of great strategic significance for the future development of the company. ”

Guo Song next to him also expressed his opinion, and he said to everyone with a smile: "At present, the company also needs a large number of people to develop Nanyang, and I suggest that some of the displaced people of the Ming Dynasty be sent to various islands in Nanyang." The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry must have a plan to develop the agricultural resources of Nanyang. Is it entirely possible to implement it years in advance? ”

Hu Wei nodded and said, "Well, that's a good idea." The conditions for the development of agriculture in Southeast Asia are very good. The high temperature and rain, the fertile land, the terrain is relatively flat, and the climate is warm and humid, which is very suitable for the development of agriculture. It is also the world's leading producer of natural rubber, Manila hemp, oil palm, coffee, sugar cane, cassava, sugar cane, tobacco and coconut in the modern world. Although the company does not control the islands of the South Seas at present, there should be no problem in arranging two or three hundred thousand yuan a year.

Other than that. I suggest that the company make a plan to attack the Indochina Peninsula, which is mostly a topographical pattern of mountains and rivers with vertical distribution. The plains and estuarine deltas along the river are flat and have fertile soils. In particular, the Mekong River basin is very rich in light, heat, water and soil resources, and the flat plain delta terrain and fertile soil are conducive to rice cultivation. Rice can be grown up to three times a year. At present, a large part of the company's grain reserves are imported from Siam. ”

Li Yukun said with a wry smile: "Our military committee has a plan to attack the Indochina Peninsula, but because the climate and geographical environment there are too complicated, the population of northern Daming will inevitably be unaccustomed to the soil and water when they go there. Therefore, the plan of our military committee is that after the company moves to the south of the Yangtze River, it will gradually encroach on the Indochina Peninsula, and then migrate the Han people in the Lingnan region to the Indochina Peninsula. ”

Gao Jianguo thought for a while and said: "When Japan is solved, we will recruit samurai on a large scale in Japan to form a death army, and then send them to the Indochina Peninsula." I don't believe that if we train 100,000 little devils, we can't level the Indochina Peninsula. With the behavior of those little devils, as long as they are given policies, they will be able to kill all the monkeys in Indochina in a few years. Anyway, Japan is full of wandering samurai, and these guys will also be a hidden danger in the future, so it is also a good way to let them all be consumed in the jungles of Indochina.

Qiao Haipeng said with a smile: "I think the time is not ripe to solve the Indochina Peninsula now. Even if we occupy a large area of arable land in the Mekong River and other places, the displaced people in the north of the Ming Dynasty may not be able to resume production in a short period of time if they go there, and the hot tropical jungle climate there, the northern Han people go there, and the disease alone is a difficult problem to overcome.

Instead of solving Indochina now, it is better to solve India first. Modern India has abundant land resources, according to statistics, India has the largest amount of arable land in Asia, as much as 143 million hectares. India has a tropical monsoon climate, which is divided into four seasons, the cool season from January to February, the summer season from March to May, the southwest monsoon rainy season from June to September, and the northeast monsoon season from October to December. The lowest temperature in the north is 15 °C, the temperature in the south is as high as 27 °C, there is almost no frost-free period, crops can be grown all year round, and the climate resources are quite abundant.

India is rich in water resources, with a total annual rainfall of 3.93 trillion cubic meters. There are many rivers in the territory, the most important one is the Ganges River, with a total length of 2,700 kilometers, more than 10 tributaries, and a basin area of 1.06 million square kilometers; It is followed by Brahmaputra River, Godavari River, Narmada River, Krishna River, etc. Abundant rainfall and numerous rivers provide favourable conditions for agricultural production and irrigation, with 32.8 per cent of the country's irrigated area being cultivated. India is blessed with abundant agricultural resources. ”

Everyone listened to his words and became interested.

However, some committee members put forward different opinions, saying that the time is not yet ripe to solve India, which is too far away, has a huge land area, and has a large population, and the current strength of the Mughal Empire cannot be underestimated. Moreover, if the Far East wants to solve India, it is bound to consume a lot of troops and materials, and the company also has to face the tide of displaced people from the Ming Dynasty, and has no energy to open up overseas battlefields.
