Chapter 755: Methods Of Forcibly Emigrating Foreign Barbarian People From Small Countries And Diggin
After Yan Changqing finished talking about the livestock resources, agricultural planting resources, coal, oil, natural gas, gold, jade and other mineral resources contained in northern Xinjiang.
Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts below are all about moving the capital, moving the capital, moving the capital to Peking, occupying, occupying, occupying the northern Xinjiang grasslands, digging for coal, oil, natural gas, and gold and jade.
As for giving up Northern Xinjiang?!!
fart!!!
Zhu Yuanzhang now wants to move the entire Ming Dynasty to Northern Xinjiang immediately!!!
Not to mention Zhu Yuanzhang himself, if anyone in the later generations of the Ming Dynasty dared to give up Northern Xinjiang, then Zhu Yuanzhang would be so angry that he would get up and kill that unscrupulous descendant.
Well, the premise is that Zhu Yuanzhang can really fake his corpse and get up.
In short, after realizing the huge value contained in Northern Xinjiang, the importance of occupying and controlling Northern Xinjiang has reached the highest level in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind.
Even now Zhu Yuanzhang is already thinking about placing the occupation and development of northern Xinjiang in the next few medium- and long-term five-year plans of the Ming Dynasty~.
"Now do you know the potential value contained in the grasslands of Northern Xinjiang?!!"
Yan Changqing glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhou Wang Zhu Ji, and the three little guys Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Jiwei, and Zhu Gaochi below and smiled lightly.
Whether it was Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhou Wang Zhu Ji, or the three little guys Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Jixi, and Zhu Gaochi, they all nodded repeatedly.
Know!
Now they know all too well the potential value contained in the grasslands of northern Xinjiang!
Even at this moment, the value of the northern Xinjiang grasslands in their minds is higher than that of the Central Plains!
Seeing this scene, Yan Changqing smiled, and then wrote on the other side of the blank space on the small blackboard:
"After talking about the potential value contained in the northern Xinjiang grassland, let's go on to talk about how to deal with the nomads entrenched on the northern Xinjiang grassland."
"First of all, we need to make it clear that today's Ming Dynasty is short of people, very, very short of people!"
"Whether it is the subsequent development of the Liaodong Plain or the subsequent development of the northern Xinjiang grasslands, there is no doubt that a large number of civilians will be needed!"
"The growth of the population of the local people in the Ming Dynasty will take a long time to be realized."
"So when the Ming Dynasty has a serious shortage of native people, the nomadic people on the grasslands of northern Xinjiang are a good source of supplementary resources!"
"During the nearly hundred years when the Yuan Dynasty came to dominate the Central Plains and ruled the Han people, even the uppermost Mongolian Yuan people resisted, resisted, and were unwilling to accept Han culture."
“However, during the nearly hundred years that the middle and lower-class Mongolian people lived together with the Han people, they were inevitably influenced, influenced, and even assimilated by the Han culture in the Central Plains.”
"For example, those people who were surrendered by the Northern Yuan Dynasty when the Ming Dynasty went to Liaodong to conquer it, and the 200,000 surrendered prisoners of the Northern Yuan Dynasty that were conquered earlier, they all belong to the common people of the Northern Yuan Dynasty who have been semi-Chinese."
"We just need to let them learn Chinese culture, understand Chinese characters, and imitate Chinese customs just like the people of the Central Plains."
"As little as one or two generations, or as many as three or four generations, they will become part of the Chinese nation just like the Xianbei, Man, Slang, Liao and other ethnic minorities who were sinicized and assimilated by the Central Plains." elements.
Yan Changqing's words made Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhou Wang Zhu Ji's eyes light up.
Before, they had been troubled by the serious shortage of people in the Ming Dynasty. After all, they did not expect that when the more than 60 million people of the Ming Dynasty were really spread out, there would not be enough anywhere!
After all, the development of the Liaodong Plain alone is expected to require at least millions to tens of millions of people to immigrate and develop it before it can achieve initial results.
Not to mention the Northern Xinjiang grassland, which is far more vast than the Liaodong Plain. It is really impossible to turn the Northern Xinjiang grassland into the Central Plains without bringing in a population of 20 to 30 million people to immigrate and develop it. .
But now Yan Changqing's words gave them another way.
That is, if the population of the Ming Dynasty is not enough, then they will capture the population of other foreign nations to develop the Liaodong Plain and the Northern Xinjiang Grassland!!!
Not to mention others, like the nomadic peoples on the grasslands of northern Xinjiang, as well as the Champa Kingdom, Zhenla Kingdom, and North Korea around the Ming Dynasty...
The combined population of these small foreign nations and barbarian countries should be between 10 and 20 million people.
Even if we are more optimistic, the total population of these small foreign and barbarian countries may reach 30 million people.
If the Ming Dynasty could capture all the 20 to 30 million people from foreign countries and small barbarian countries, and then send them to cross the Eastern Plains and Northern Xinjiang grasslands.
In this case, the Ming Dynasty could barely have the manpower to develop the Liaodong Plain and the Northern Xinjiang Grassland.
This method is obviously more in line with Zhu Yuanzhang's wishes than waiting for more than ten or twenty years for the Ming Dynasty's population to rise to 100 to 200 million before the imperial court organizes the people to develop the Liaodong Plain and the Northern Xinjiang grassland. Some.
If the Ming Dynasty wanted to find and capture the elusive nomads on the northern Xinjiang grasslands, it might be difficult.
But if Ming wants to find and capture those small countries such as Champa State, Chenla State, and North Korea that will not run away, there will be no problem for Ming Dynasty.
In the past, we ignored the small barbarian countries around Ming Dynasty. First, they had surrendered, giving face to Ming Dynasty and becoming Ming Dynasty's younger brothers.
Second, because the concrete highway has not been completely built, if the Ming Dynasty wanted to send troops to attack those small barbarian countries, the journey would be long and expensive.
The third reason is that in the eyes of the previous Ming Dynasty, even if these small barbarian affiliated countries were destroyed, there would not be much benefit.
If the Ming Dynasty sent tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of troops to defeat them over vast distances, the gains would outweigh the losses.
This is also the main reason why Zhu Yuanzhang in the original history listed small countries such as Cacheng Kingdom, Zhenla Kingdom, and Korea Kingdom as non-conquest countries in the 28th year of Hongwu.
But it's different now. In Zhu Yuanzhang's opinion, these small barbarian countries now have interests worth conquering, which is the population of the people!
Now the Ming Dynasty needs the civilian population of these small barbarian affiliated countries to help the Ming Dynasty, which has insufficient civilian population, develop the Liaodong Plain and the northern Xinjiang grassland!
[By the end of this year, the concrete highways throughout the world should be almost completed. 】
[When the Ming Dynasty wants to send troops to Champa State, Chenla State, North Korea and other surrounding small countries, it should be much more convenient. 】
[Well, I will mention this matter during the DPRK meeting at the end of this year. 】
[Absorbing the population of the surrounding small barbarian countries and moving them to the Liaodong Plain and the Northern Xinjiang Grassland for development will be one of the contents of the Ming Dynasty's second medium- and long-term five-year plan!]
Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking secretly in his heart.
Originally, he thought that the development of the Liaodong Plain and the Northern Xinjiang Grassland would probably be left to the second generation emperor of the Ming Dynasty to complete.
After all, when the next generation of people in the Ming Dynasty grows up, it is estimated that even if he is not dead by then, there is a high probability that he will not be able to preside over the development of the Liaodong Plain and the Northern Xinjiang Grassland.
But now, by forcibly moving people from small barbarian countries such as Champa State, Chenla State, and North Korea, there is an opportunity for Ming Dynasty to complete the initial development of the Liaodong Plain and the Northern Xinjiang Grassland in his generation.
This made Zhu Yuanzhang very excited!
Zhu Yuanzhang was born as a beggar and a refugee, and had strong thoughts of a simple folk father.
His idea is very simple, that is, if he can leave as much family property to his children and grandchildren as possible, he will try his best to leave as much family property to his children and grandchildren as possible. If he can also accomplish things in his own generation, he will try his best to do it in his own generation. Finish.
In this way, even if the descendants of future generations fail, with the family fortune he has accumulated, even if he is going to fail, he will be able to defeat him a little longer.
The King of Zhou, Zhu Rui, also thought about forcibly moving people from other foreign countries to develop the Liaodong Plain and the grasslands of Northern Xinjiang. However, unlike Zhu Yuanzhang, the King of Zhou, Zhu Rui, was thinking about another aspect:
[Forcibly moving people from small barbarian countries such as Champa State, Chenla State, and Korea to replace the people of the Ming Dynasty to develop the Liaodong Plain and the grasslands of northern Xinjiang. This was very difficult for the people of the Ming Dynasty.
It’s also a good thing!]
[After all, no matter how great the potential value of the Liaodong Plain and the Northern Xinjiang Grassland is what Mr. Yan said, the current Liaodong Plain and Yuanshi are still a bitter and cold place, and the Northern Xinjiang Grassland is still a "barren land." 】
[If you want to develop the bitter cold land like the Liaodong Plain and the "barren land" like the northern Xinjiang grassland into rich fertile fields, you don't know how many people's lives will be needed to achieve that step. 】
[If there is no other way but for the common people of Ming Dynasty to use their lives to fill and develop, then that’s it. 】
[But now that people from other foreign countries can bear the casualties on behalf of the people of Ming Dynasty, it would be better for people from other foreign countries to bear the casualties on behalf of the people of Ming Dynasty. 】
…………Please give me flowers…………
[Now the people of Ming Dynasty, who have just lived a peaceful and stable life for more than ten years, let them live a peaceful life. 】
As for the people of other foreign nations who were forcibly moved to the Liaodong Plain and northern Xinjiang grasslands for development by the Ming Dynasty, would they lose their peaceful life?
King Zhu Ji of Zhou said that although he sympathized with the people, among the people of the Ming Dynasty and the people of other foreign nations, he must give priority to the people of the Ming Dynasty.
After all, he is not mentally ill. He can still distinguish between the people of the Ming Dynasty and the people of other foreign countries.
And he was not talking nonsense. People from other foreign countries were forcibly moved to the Eastern Plains and Northern Xinjiang grasslands for development by the Ming Dynasty.
Although it is not as good as the life of the people of the Ming Dynasty, it is certainly much better than the life under the foreign rule where they were originally.
Because during this period, Ming Dynasty undoubtedly represented the most advanced productive forces in the world.
If the people at the bottom of the Ming Dynasty are not living well, then the people at the bottom of other foreign nations will only be living an even worse life!
After the people of other foreign nations were forcibly moved over to help the Ming Dynasty develop the Liaodong Plain and the Northern Xinjiang Grassland, the Ming Dynasty would definitely treat them better than their original monarchs treated them!
At least they should be given cold-warming clothing, reclamation tools, basic food necessary for the initial stage, etc. The Ming Dynasty will definitely give them these materials.
Moreover, these materials are either directly given to them for free, or have very low interest, or are directly interest-free, and then the repayment time is extended to three or five years.
And such a move is definitely something that the original kings of other foreign peoples and nations cannot do!
Because the national power of small barbarian countries such as Champa State, Chenla State, and North Korea cannot support them to do such a thing!
So when I think of it
People from other foreign countries were forcibly moved here to help the Ming Dynasty develop the Liaodong Plain and the northern Xinjiang grassland. Although their lives would be a little harder, they were still better than their original lives.
After that, the unbearable feeling in Zhou Wang Zhu's heart disappeared without a trace.
Yan Changqing on the podium did not know what Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhou Wang Zhu were thinking at this moment, so he continued:
"And the biggest advantage of absorbing the nomadic people in the northern Xinjiang grassland is that we can dig the foundation of the nomadic people in the northern Xinjiang grassland."
"After all, those nomadic peoples on the grasslands of northern Xinjiang, their common people did not really appear out of thin air like pasture."
"The growth of their population also needs to be through childbearing, and then it will take ten to twenty years to grow up slowly."
"And during this period, we had to experience natural living environment conditions that were far more harsh than those in the Central Plains, as well as medical environment conditions, etc.
"So under such circumstances, it would be far more difficult for a baby from the nomadic people in the northern Xinjiang grasslands to grow up healthily and smoothly than a baby from the Central Plains.
"This is why the population of nomadic people on the grasslands of northern Xinjiang, compared to the population of the Central Plains, has always remained in a relatively small range of several million people.
s reason.
"So for such a small nomadic nation with millions of people, its population is limited and will not change significantly within a certain period of time."
"And this also means that within a certain period of time, the greater the number of nomadic people that the Ming Dynasty absorbed, the greater the number of nomadic people wandering on the grasslands of northern Xinjiang.
The number of people will naturally decrease accordingly!"
“When the number of nomadic people on the grasslands of northern Xinjiang drops from millions to one million, the growth in the number of people of other ethnic groups will begin to become unstable.
“When the number of nomadic people on the grasslands of northern Xinjiang drops from one million to 500,000, the long-term reproduction and continuation of their race will also begin to be at risk.
"When the number of nomadic people on the grasslands of northern Xinjiang dropped from 500,000 to 200,000, the race had the possibility of going extinct on its own."
"When the number of nomadic people on the grasslands of northern Xinjiang drops to less than 100,000, then it is very likely that this nomadic people will disappear in the grassland during a certain winter.
, completely became a piece of history!”
"This is the truly effective way to combat the development and growth of the nomadic people in the northern Xinjiang grassland, and even to dig out the foundation of the nomadic people in the northern Xinjiang grassland!"
