Chapter 429 The Supreme Emperor of North Korea
When Yang Xin hurried back to Nanjing, his navy clutch brought the latest news from Mopo Port and Lee Nai's second envoy Kim Sang-heon...
"Jin Sijian asked to return the king. The day when Yang arrived in North Korea was the time when the wild boar skin was given head."
Governor Yang said.
"The governor is intimidating from Liaodong, and everyone in the world knows it."
The latter quickly flattered him.
This person was originally called North Korea's Wen Tianxiang by the Bangzi in history, and was regarded as the most resolute resistance among the ministers under Li Nie. His brother had previously defended Gongzhou for Li Nie and committed suicide after losing it. In fact, because of the forced shaving of wild boar skin, the gentry in southern Korea strongly resisted. The reason why Jiannu had not yet captured Luozhou was because of the tenacious resistance of the gentry in all of the province.
After all, they also attach great importance to this issue.
"However, the king still needs to hold on to Luozhou for a while. After all, Si Jian also saw that the situation on my side is very complicated. The Red Turban Army had just completed the recruitment and had to adapt them. Moreover, the surrounding regiments were also dissatisfied with recruitment and might start fighting at any time. Speaking of which, I don't even have available soldiers in my hands. The She'an Rebellion in Guizhou has just subsided. The war-capable soldiers in the south are suppressing them, while the soldiers in the north are all in Liaodong. There is no soldier given to me by the Ministry of War, just to recruit me on the spot."
Then Yang Xin complained.
Kim Sang-hyun is not a fool, so he knows what to do at this time.
"Governor, North Korea is destroyed by the barbarians and plunders all its wealth. However, the Governor has worked hard to save North Korea. How can I be rude? There are some jewelry here, please sell it to help military supplies."
He took a box from his entourage and said.
"Jin Sijian, you look down on Yang!"
Yang Xinyi said righteously.
"Isn't Yang the one who solicited bribes? Yang was ordered to do the job. Military supplies were provided by the court. North Korea was poisoned by Jiannu and exposed to the wild bones. These should be helped by the people. Is Yang short of money? Jin Sijian quickly took these back, otherwise don't blame Yang for being angry."
He said.
"Well?"
Kim Sang-hyun was stunned.
Then he stood up with admiration and saluted, expressing his respect to Governor Yang.
"Jin Sijian should not think too much. Although Yang has to recruit troops, the Marines of the Navy can immediately go to North Korea to reinforce. There is also General Qi's troops there. It is enough to defend Luozhou. Yang's action here should be as fast as possible and not delay too long. Yang will not ask the Korean people for a ingot of silver, but Yang still has some things that are beneficial to you and me. You need to ask the Sijian to report to the king for his decision."
Yang Xin said.
"Please speak with the Governor."
Kim Sang-heon said quickly.
Yang Xin must have benefits, but it’s a hell that if you don’t have benefits like this kind of thing.
But what else can North Korea care about at this time? Anyway, the land, population, and money have basically fallen into the hands of the Hulu. Li Yu now only has Gwangju, Luozhou, and Mopo, which are about a hundred miles long and dozens of miles wide, and there are also several coastal islands such as Jeju Island. As long as Yang Xin can save them, it doesn't matter to give him Jeju Island. He also wants other places to do whatever he wants. If anyone likes Li Yu's concubine, he will give him anything else at this time.
"Nine out of ten families in North Korea are empty now?"
Yang Xin said.
"The Hulu just slaughtered the whole province for ten days not long ago, and it is said that less than 100 people were left in the city to collect the bodies."
Kim Sang-hyun wiped his tears and said.
"These barbarians are simply inhumane, but once Yang comes out, the barbarians will definitely drive them away. After driving them away, the reconstruction of North Korea will be the top priority. Yang is a farmer and has liked to open up land and farm for many years. The hundreds of thousands of acres of saline-alkali beaches in Tianjin have now become fertile fields in Yang's hands. Therefore, Yang wants to recruit some people from the Ming Dynasty to reclaim land and farm in North Korea after the war. This is approved by the king. The king can rest assured that these are not immigrants, they are all Yang's employers, and Yang will also pay taxes to the king when he reclaims the land."
Yang Xin said.
It’s good to massacre the city, the wild boar skin slaughter the city, just right to clear the place for him.
Quanzhou is the grain depot of Bangzi, the largest plain in the country. Although their plain is as big as Songjiang Prefecture, it is undeniable that it is very suitable for farming. It is similar to that south of Qingdao. It can be cooked twice a year. While welcoming the rainwater to the sea, the river water flowing out of the mountains and ridges behind it. Such a good place can basically accommodate half of Yan'an Prefecture, and the climate is not different, so there is no problem of inadaptation. Of course, Yan'an Prefecture should not immigrate there, and Yan'an Prefecture is suitable for Sichuan.
But Shandong's is just over.
Western Shandong is also a severely affected area, and even the Shandong Peninsula is a severely affected area.
Especially in northwest Shandong, it was completely a continuous large-scale drought, and accompanied by locusts, it was completely a barren land.
Then the lunar month of North Korea is very suitable for them.
There is no need to transport the Clippers, and the navy's warships can transport tens of thousands of them at one time.
"With the kindness of the governor, it is really a waste of his life to be a villain."
Kim Sang-hyun said with emotion.
"Yang is not only reclaiming land, but I think you have also heard of the good days of Yehe's tribe. Yang likes to make friends from foreign vassals. I can also find mines, do business, and open money shops in your place. In short, I will allow North Korea to quickly recover and bring a large amount of taxes to the king. However, the king needs to give me the rights to specialize in some things, such as only allowing me to open a money shop, the land I reclaimed is my private property, and the minerals I find are also my private property, and I can build a commercial port in your country.
Of course, I should also give me less tax rates.
After all, I want to make money too.”
Yang Xin said.
His goal is to be the supreme emperor of North Korea.
What is the meaning of annexation at this time? If annexation is to give their own citizens, they must be treated the same as their own citizens, otherwise they will be dissatisfied and then make excuses to cause trouble and rebel. Then they have to continue to invest in the cost of suppression, and even to make too ruthless efforts and give them some preferential treatment in exchange for them not to cause trouble. What's more, annexation is not good for Governor Yang, but this model can keep stuffing people to them regardless of their lives or death. If the people oppose it, it is Li Gui who is responsible for the suppression. Governor Yang only needs to be responsible for being the Supreme Emperor to control Li Gui.
Then North Korea became his ATM.
Business was controlled by him, fertile land was controlled by him, and minerals were controlled by him. The whole of North Korea was filled with his armed reclamation employees, and his business bases were everywhere, just like Britain was playing in India.
Everything in North Korea gradually fell into his hands.
Scalp-skinned colonization in Kaihua area is not suitable. This method is suitable for barbarian areas with low civilization. It is suitable for Indian colonization in Kaihua area. It supports the upper class to enslave the people, and then uses various privileges to bring the wealth of enslave the people in the upper class to their own hands. At the same time, it is constantly immigrating and dyeing the people in various excuses such as business. When the lower class can no longer bear it and rise up, it even has to help the upper class suppress them. Then, after a hundred years like this, even if you want to leave, you will cry and shout and not let you go.
As for killing people, controlling population growth...
This is the upper class of the family who will do it for you.
This is suitable for North Korea. When you are the emperor, you should take these old nobles together as a parasite on the heads of the Korean people. You must keep the land decayed and backward, and you must never give them light.
As for whether Li Wang agrees...
Li Nei didn't need to decide.
Kim Sang-hyun himself could agree very simply.
Then Governor Yang quickly listed various items for him, and the privileges that should be given to him, especially extraterritorial legal rights, which must be clarified.
This one is also necessary.
Anyway, North Korea cannot control the people of the Ming Dynasty. In fact, this should be what they were originally.
In short, Kim Sang-heng, the North Korean Moon Tianxiang, respected by the men, quickly signed countless treaties that could be said to be unequal, and he handed over all the lifelines of North Korea to Yang Xin in a confused manner.
"That's all. The Si Jian can go back and report to the king, saying that Yang will soon lead troops to clear Hu Chen for the king. In addition, my three thousand marines will follow the Si Jian. With them here, I think Jiannu will not be able to conquer Luozhou."
Yang Xin said with satisfaction.
Then he sent Kim Sang-hyun away like that.
As for recruiting new troops...
What's that urgent? Let's talk about it when the end of the year. By the way, Governor Yang still has to provide disaster relief at this time.
Floods in Changzhou and Jiangyin have already occurred, but not many people died. The main reason is that the entire disaster area has basically become militia. After receiving the warning from Governor Yang, the battalion commanders of the village heads and battalions have been on high alert. The people in this area have sufficient experience in floods, and as long as they are well organized, they will basically not die. Moreover, the floods in this area are not like the kind of mountain torrents that burst into direct flow. So it is vain that the rainfall exceeds the capacity, and eventually all rivers overflow, causing large-scale flooding nearby.
Then the adobe house collapsed.
But the water recedes in this area as well. After all, the Yangtze River is next to it. As long as the flood is well organized during a flood, the losses can be minimized.
but.
Disaster relief is necessary after the flood is over.
Otherwise, the victims who were drifted away by the flood would starve to death and would die of illness in the plague after the flood, especially the plum rain season has not ended so far. In the continuous rain, those victims need to be resettled, otherwise they would soon die of illness when exposed to the rain.
In short, Governor Yang needs to spend money, so he was not in the mood to recruit new troops at this time. Besides, he did not mean that he lacked available troops. Instead of using hundreds of thousands of troops that the Ministry of War had just approved him to recruit new troops, it would be better to provide relief to the victims first. Especially not only Jiangyin, Changzhou was affected by the disaster. At this time, the continuous heavy rain had already caused the entire Taihu Lake to be filled with rivers, and a large number of villages in Wuxi were flooded, and even Wujiang was in a hurry, and the farmland there had completely disappeared into the flood.
The only thing to be thankful is that the wheat harvest is over.
Chapter completed!
