Beginning in the 16th century, Western colonizers invaded the Americas, Africa, and Southeast Asia, turning large areas of land inhabited by local natives for generations into their colonies.Since embarking on the colonial road, the Westerners have been invincible and have few opponents, but in the hands of China, they have repeatedly encountered blood.Zhao Ming was excited about this, but at the same time, he also knew that this was because at this time, there was not much difference between the scientific and technological and military levels of the East and the West, the economic strength was stronger than that of the West, and due to the limitation of distance, the Western colonists fought off the coast of China, and the difficulties in the supply of soldiers, equipment, food and other rear supplies, etc., which made the Spaniards unable to compete with him.However, it is indeed a matter of pride to be able to give the Western colonizers a head-on blow when they are thriving and invincible.In March, the Spaniards in the chicken coop surrendered to Zhao Ming, ending their colonial rule in Taiwan.The Ming army completely recovered the northern part of Taiwan and resolved the Spanish threat to the colonization area of Donghai Town.At this time, Taiwan has transitioned from a three-legged position to a situation in which the two powers are facing each other.The Dutch occupy the southern part of Taiwan to the south of Turbid Water and Hualien, and the town of Donghai occupies the northern part of Datuxi and Hualien to the north.Although there is a big belly kingdom between Potbelly Creek and Turbidity Creek, the strength is not worth mentioning, and on the island of Taiwan, it is mainly Donghai Town and the Dutch who fight north and south.At this time, Donghai Town had only been on the island for more than three years, the foundation was not yet stable, and the occupied land had not been fully developed, so Zhao Ming did not plan to launch a war to unify Taiwan immediately.The heroes of all dynasties have aimed to unify the world, but Zhao Ming's goal at this time is to unify Taiwan, which is a bit ridiculous, but compared with dominating the world, Zhao Ming feels that unifying Taiwan is more practical for him.After the Spanish surrendered, all the wars in Donghai Town stopped, and Zhao Ming's energy shifted to industry, education, and marriage.Originally, Zhao Ming was going to get married at the end of last year, but the changes in Fujian were delayed again.Now it can't be dragged out no matter what, it must be done, this is not only his subordinates are anxious, Zhao Ming is actually anxious, young people are strong, how can they not want women?
But he doesn't have to worry about these things, Ma Shiao will do it, he just needs to find time to participate in the wedding, and then sleep with the bride.The wedding was scheduled for June, and at the end of April, the Spaniards in Luzon sent ships to bring 100,000 taels of silver to take the Spanish captives, and the Treaty of Mincy came into force.At this time, there are still two months before the wedding, and the reason why it has been delayed for so long is mainly because the transportation is inconvenient, and the time to give the gift giver to come, and Zhao Ming is ready to use the marriage to show the guests who come to Taiwan, and the residence must be repaired well.Now that the wedding date is still early, Zhao Ming did not stay in the chicken coop, but led the fleet to patrol the coast of Taiwan.At this time, Zhao Ming set up the Metropolitan Governor in Tamsui and began to operate the northern region of Taiwan, and the shogunate of the Right Army Governor's Office, as well as the Yamen at all levels of the Zhejiang Metropolitan Command Division, all moved from Zhoushan to Taiwan.Zhao Ming took Chen Mingyu, Dai Zhijun, Chen Yujie, Feng Jingdi, Xu Fuyuan, Chen Zilong and others to inspect Tamsui, Taipei, Taoyuan, Zhuqian and other places.Although there are more than 1.3 million people on the island, and it has been developed for more than three years, the land that has been used is still only a small part.Zhao Ming inspected all the way to the bamboo trench, and accompanied by the commander Zhang Zhongjian, he came to the south of the bamboo trench, only to see a large area of land, overgrown with dense woods and shrubs."
Guogong, after defeating the potbelly queen in a humble position, occupy this place.It is located on the south bank of Dajia Creek, the land is flat and fertile, and it is suitable for raising soldiers in Tuntian.The original natives who lived here planted by their mouths, did not greed for surplus, only met their own needs, and the land utilization rate was very low. ”Zhang Zhongjian introduced.Taiwan is rich in products, and like islands such as Nanyang, the natives do not need too much effort to live, so they will not work hard like the Han people, reserve grain for famine, and sell grain in exchange for silver and other goods, so the land utilization rate is very low.Zhao Ming inspected all the way, and he also felt that Taiwan Island is vast and sparsely populated, and the local natives only seek food and clothing, unlike the Han people on the island, who work diligently and pursue progress.Since 2,000 years ago, Chen Shu shouted that "the prince will have a kind of Xiangning", which planted the gene for the Chinese to work hard.Looking at the forest of nations in the world, no nation will be as eager to get rich and succeed as the Chinese, and the Chinese believe that people will win the day, and believe that the prince and prince will have a kind of peace, believing that as long as they work hard, they can change their lives and improve their status.This kind of cultural gene has made China occupy the top of the world's nation again and again.This is also the reason why Zhao Ming has the confidence to colonize Taiwan and develop Nanyang.Without the leadership and support of the government, the Chinese were able to break out of the world overseas, and now with the support of the government, there is no reason why they cannot compete with the Western colonizers.Zhao Ming glanced at the flat and rich land in front of him, and said to everyone: "Governing the family and the country, food first."
Now that we have this treasure land, we should follow the law of using soldiers in agriculture, so that our soldiers in the East China Sea will have enough food, and then watch the Manchu Qing Dynasty provoke and forge ahead. ”Chen Mingyu said: "The words of the Duke of the Kingdom are reasonable, the Gou family has no food, although they are as close as father and son, it is difficult to get along with their family; The country has no food, and although there are loyal and patriotic people, it is difficult to govern the country.If you cultivate it properly, the East China Sea soldiers will have no worries about food, and you can also solve the worries of the imperial court's lack of food!
”Zhao Ming nodded, and then said to Chen Zilong, who was accompanying him: "Mr. can make a travel record of Yingzhou, record the inspection of Taiwan here, talk about what he saw, ask and think, and publish it in the "Fuxing Daily"!"
”Chen Zilong has been watching the scenery of Yingzhou in recent days, doing a lot of poems, and was about to write a travelogue, so he smiled and said: "Humble and orderly!"
”Fuxing Daily, a newspaper run by Zhao Ming, with Chen Zilong as the editor-in-chief, is set to be published once a month at today's communication speed, collecting information from all over the world and current affairs.Of course, there is a certain amount of space in each issue, which is reserved for Zhao Ming, recording who Grandpa Guo met within a month, what good things he did, and the happy life of the Taiwanese people.When the next group of people continued to inspect, and even went deep into the mountains, the Gaoshan compatriots in the sphere of influence of Donghai Town all lined up to welcome Zhao Ming when they learned that Zhao Ming had come to inspect.Zhao Ming gave good words to these young people and comrades, and gave salt and cloth to condolence, and strictly forbade his subordinates to infringe on their interests.Zhao Ming inspected along the coast and returned to Tamsui at the end of May, and at this time, Cheng Bi, who was in the Fujian preparation company, and a large number of people who came to congratulate him, also rushed over.
