Chapter 722: The Australian Whirlwind
It wasn't until Yixin and the three disappeared into the darkness that Su Sanniang couldn't help but ask, "Why did you refuse to accept Seng Lingqin on behalf of the Mongols?" ”
Tao Wei also didn't understand Wang Feng's behavior, since ancient times, who of the sages and masters of the past dynasties did not use the Quartet barbarians to suppress and appease? But His Majesty the Emperor is good, he directly rejected people thousands of miles away, and immediately put his ears up.
"Hehe~~' Wang Feng chuckled: "First of all, the Mongolian divisions have been divided for a long time, and each king has the mind of his own king, especially the outer Mongolia, which has been under the fetters of the Qing court for a long time, has considerable autonomy, and its princes have been seriously infiltrated by Russia, and Seng Lingqin can't at least be the lord of the outer Mongolia."
Instead of pulling each other's skins, I'd better have a pot end, the conditions I have opened, you are willing to go to Australia, I will send it out, you can still be friends in the future, if you are not willing to go, then I'm sorry, waiting for you, only bullets and shells.
Second, we have been stationed in Beijing for 10 days, what is your most intuitive feeling about the north? ”
"Gray!" Zhou Xiuying blurted out: "Beijing's wind and sand are particularly strong, the ground is full of floating soil, as if it is blown by the wind, the turf is rarely seen, and the air is very dry, and it is thanks to me and Sister Sanniang who have kung fu, if an ordinary woman is blown by the wind and her face is tense, you must apply some rouge powder." ”
"Hmm!" Su Sanniang nodded sympathetically, Yang Shuijiao hasn't come out much these days, just because of the wind and sand.
Wang Feng asked again: "Then do you know where the wind and sand in Beijing come from?" ”
"I don't know!" Including Tao Huan, a man and two women shook their heads one after another.
Wang Feng pointed to the northwest: "It is from the Mongolian Plateau, it is said that the quicksand has approached the suburbs of Beijing for more than 100 kilometers, you don't underestimate the wind and sand, its impact on the climate is a continuous and huge process, and it affects not only Beijing." And the entire Yellow River Basin.
Dense and frequent windy and sandy weather reflects sunlight to lower the temperature of the atmosphere and interacts with suspended particles, inhibiting the formation of clouds, reducing precipitation and drying out the air. Drought intensifies, and when a critical value is reached, it alters the ecological environment of the entire region.
The most intuitive reflection is that the summer rainstorm is a disaster, the winter is dry and windy, in ancient times, the Yellow River basin is rich in water and grass, is the birthplace of Chinese civilization, but thousands of years later. Why is the land in the Yellow River basin becoming increasingly barren?
For thousands of years, the Yellow River broke its mouth and changed its course frequently, especially in the nearly two hundred years from the beginning of the Qing Dynasty to the Qingying War, according to statistics, the Yellow River broke 361 times, an average of once every six months, compared with the average of seven months in the Ming Dynasty, showing a deteriorating trend. Of course, there are human factors, but the root cause is caused by wind and sand. In order to control the Yellow River, in addition to reinforcing the embankments and dredging the river, it is also necessary to control the wind and sand.
At the same time, the wind and sand will blow away the surface soil, according to the statistics of foreign scientists, from a piece of grass to scrape away eighteen centimeters of topsoil. It takes more than 2,000 years, 49 years to scrape the same amount of topsoil on a cornfield, and 18 years on bare soil.
Eighteen years. In just 18 years, a fertile land was blown away by the wind, and the grain yield per mu in northern China reached its peak in the Western Han Dynasty, and then fell in a spiral, and now the yield per mu is less than 100 catties, which is the long-term harm of wind and sand. ”
Zhou Xiuying was puzzled: "We understand the dangers of wind and sand, but what does this have to do with your exile of the Mongols?" ”
Wang Feng patiently explained: "The source of sandstorms in the north is the Mongolian Plateau, which has become more and more desertified due to thousands of years of overgrazing, and the negative impact on the Yellow River Basin is also increasing.
The only way to completely restore the green mountains and clear waters of the Yellow River Basin is to plant trees and return grazing land to grassland, so that the water and soil can be conserved by forests and grasslands, so that the climate can gradually return to humidity and reduce the windy and sandy weather in the winter and autumn in the north.
Millions of Mongolians, hundreds of millions of cattle, horses and sheep grazing on the Mongolian Plateau, the steppes have long been overwhelmed, so I moved the Mongols, on the one hand, to cut off the connection with Russia, a considerable part of the meat and dairy products and fur that the Russians need daily needs come from trade with Mongolia, and on the other hand, to conserve the grasslands of the Mongolian Plateau, restore the ecological environment, and control the sand plague in Beijing from the root.
Wang Feng understood what Tao Xuan meant, and suddenly said in shock: "Your Majesty, you want to ban the grassland?" But have you ever thought about it, the grassland, where do the meat, dairy products and fur that I need come from? Although this cut off part of the source of the Russians, it also killed a thousand enemies and lost eight hundred. ”
Wang Feng waved his hand indifferently: "We can import from Australia in the future, Australia is more suitable for grazing, and the quality of meat, milk and fur is higher than that of Mongolia, otherwise, why should I get the Mongols and Manchurians over to raise sheep for us?"
Sheep are animals that eat even grass roots, and the damage to the pastures is extremely huge, and the eastern coast of Australia has abundant rainfall, and the pastures will quickly regrow even if the grass roots are gnawed.
Of course, I am not saying that the prairie does not raise sheep at all, and in the future, some Hermes-Epitek can be moved to the past to set up a livestock company, but the number must be strictly controlled, and the amount must not exceed the capacity of the pasture. ”
Wang Feng's positioning of Manchuria, Mongolia and Southeast Asia is a resource supplier, at the bottom of the industrial chain, specifically to provide raw materials for China, and the positioning of China is of course an industrial country, and for Japan's positioning, it is divided into two aspects, on the one hand, it is a custom tourism country, making full use of the characteristics of Japanese women to be obedient and open, and in the future, it has developed a light and comfortable set, transforming Japan into a good place for a man's leisure vacation, on the other hand, it is to invest in the highly polluting heavy chemical industry and paper industry!
"Your Majesty has a point!" Tao Xuan showed a clear look.
"Hey~~" Wang Feng sighed again: "After thousands of years of overdevelopment in northern China, it has been overwhelmed, and a huge number of people are digging on barren land, resulting in frequent natural disasters and an increasingly bad environment, which is also the reason why I am trying to expand my territory to the south, killing or driving away the local natives, vacating the cage, and modifying the Han people, because China's population is too much, only a warm climate can carry more people, and I encourage people to migrate to the three Southeast Asian countries, and it is for this reason that I encourage people to immigrate to the three countries in Southeast Asia." ”
"Your Majesty is far-sighted, Tao Wei admires." Tao Xuan arched his hand.
"Let's go, the Qing court won't have results so quickly, let's go back and wait a few more days." Wang Feng beckoned and walked back
Sure enough, as Wang Feng expected, when Yi Xin brought back the two resettlement methods, the court exploded, in fact, everyone understands the truth, Wang Feng has already spoken very thoroughly, the first article is directly vetoed, changing the Han surname and using the Han name is equivalent to exterminating the clan.
And the second, because Australia is thousands of miles away, the Banner and the Mongols are authentic northerners, and they have a natural fear of going to sea by boat, and a considerable number of them would rather return to their hometowns and retreat back to the deep mountains and forests than risk going to sea, and some people are worried that this is Wang Feng's trick, after all, surrendering and being killed is not a new thing in history.
All of a sudden, there was a stalemate in the court, and the enlightened faction led by Yi Xin and Su Shun advocated moving to Australia, and the elderly conservatives led by Zaiyuan and Duanhua advocated a further delay, and once they repelled the attack of the Democratic Alliance, they reproposed to withdraw from the Guanwai, and some people were even dreaming, what if the Democratic Alliance Army was broken?
Lan'er and Niu Hulu couldn't make up their minds, so they didn't have any follow-up for the time being.
In this case, Wang Feng instructed the secret agent to spread the news and attached a detailed introduction to Australia, and suddenly, the people also exploded!
"The emperor of the Southern Dynasty is benevolent and righteous, how many Han people were slaughtered by the Manchus at the beginning? Now that the Southern Dynasty is destroying the court, it is just around the corner, but it is besieged but not attacked, and his subordinates are merciful, but what is the palace still hesitating about? Are you reluctant to give up this world of flowers? ”
"Joke, Beijing City is the industry of the Ming Dynasty, and it is not his Qing Dynasty, besides, the Manchurians are originally from the white mountains and black waters, and now they can't do it, it's just a change of place and a nest, what's not to want to do? If you want to look at me, it is the Manchurians who have lived a comfortable life for 200 years, become lazy, and are unwilling to take risks to start a business overseas, especially against the 400,000 foreigners in Australia, where did they have so much courage? ”
"Hey, I don't know when the palace can give a letter, I really want to anger the emperor of the Southern Dynasty, a bombardment, we all have to bury the Manchurians!"
"Actually, Australia is pretty good, sunny and warm, like Beijing is dry and cold? No wonder the emperor of the Southern Dynasty did not want to build a country in Beijing, but set up the capital in Nanjing, if possible, I want to go to Australia to open up, with the emperor of the Southern Dynasty as the backing, what is a little foreigner? It's a pity that I'm not a flag man! ”
There is an endless stream of discussions among the people, full of dissatisfaction with the court, and now the Qing court does not dare to suppress it anymore, why? He was worried that after the city was broken, it would be counterattacked by the Democratic Alliance Army, so that the people of Beijing were even more unscrupulous, and the streets were full of talk about Australia.
For example, Australia has more than 4,000 tons of gold deposits, more than 40,000 tons of silver ore, high-quality iron ore with an iron content of more than 60 percent, trillions of tons of coal reserves, and the rest of the oil, aluminum, lead, all kinds of rare metals, and countless forest resources and animal fishery resources.
Many lumpenproletarians and underworld members among the Han people are clamoring to go to Australia to make a fortune, and many of the lower class people in Manchu and Mongolia are also moved.
The agitation of public opinion and the fluctuation of people's hearts have brought heavy pressure to the Qing court, and they are also tempting their hearts over and over again.
Indeed, can the resources of the white mountains and black waters be as abundant as those of Australia? Winter is still so cold, can it compare to the warmth of Australia?
In the continuous tide of public opinion, it is not surprising that foreigners stationed in Beijing have heard all the rumors about Australia. (To be continued......)
