Her Majesty the Queen soon ended her inspection of these plantations and set off on her journey.

Arrived in Tianjin four days later.

I can't continue to take a boat here. Although her dragon boat is not big, it cannot pass through the shallow water of the North Canal. I can basically not take a big boat from Yin'er Bay. In fact, the role of this canal has been shared by a national highway. A large number of new carriages start from Yin'er Bay and can be delivered to Beidu within three days. Moreover, the railway parallel to the national highway is also under construction. This railway will be built in the next two years. After all, there is no real big river barrier along the way, and bridges can be built on these rivers in the past. In the future, land transportation will completely replace the waterway of the North Canal...

After all, this is no longer a capital city.

In fact, the population of Beidu is still small. You should know that most of the population was almost cleared last time. So much population loss cannot be recovered in just a few years.

Even Tianjin is in a very depressed state.

At that time, there was a great war in Tianjin. The Eight Banners Divine Army stationed in this city fought to the end. In the end, the population of Tianjin Acropolis was less than half of the population after the war. Not only here, but the entire Shuntian Prefecture was similar. The war and the liquidation of traitors and heresy after the war caused serious population losses to this land. However, those who survived were still very happy because they were all cultivating the best fields. When the population dropped sharply, there was naturally no land pressure, and some nimble minds were learning to build plantations. But they did not use Japanese slaves, but a large number of Jiannu and Shen slaves. As for the problem of these people's resistance and escape, it was nothing, just put on shackles.

It’s not that you can’t work if you wear shackles.

"This is not the past. This is all captured by Jianzhou Wei and Mongolian tribes outside the pass."

Zheng Chenggong explained.

"I just said, where are so many?"

Yang Qing said with satisfaction.

In fact, the Outer Mongolians and Jianzhou Wei Zheng were happy to do so, and even regarded the capture of slaves as their pillar industry. Anyway, they had no other source of income, and the Mongolians could only sell some horses at most, but now there are horse farms everywhere in the Ming Dynasty, and their Mongolian horses are not worth much.

As for Jianzhou Wei, we can only sell ginseng.

Although the population of the Jianzhou Sanwei has also decreased significantly, due to natural conditions, life is still relatively difficult.

On the contrary, catching slaves can make a lot of money.

Not only those who captured the Emperor and the Qing Dynasty, but also those who surrendered to the Ming Dynasty captured each other.

"Can the grain in Northern Zhili be self-sufficient?"

Yang Qing asked immediately.

"Yes, I will be completely self-sufficiency this year, and I can also supply surplus grain to all troops outside the pass. This potato is really a good thing. Not to mention the inside of the pass, even in the pass, the area where the foreign propaganda area can grow potatoes with high yields!"

Zhu Dadian, the governor of Northern Zhili, said excitedly.

Before Yang Qing could get the potatoes in South America, he had already started to promote potatoes here. After all, the climate here is suitable, especially the mountainous areas outside the pass. According to the new administrative division, the Liaodong Dusi and Xuanfu were originally assigned to Beizhili. After all, there is almost no population in these places, so there is no need to set up administrative regions separately. For example, the entire Xuanfu currently only retains one county magistrate, and it is also a prefect. What do less than 50,000 people need so many officials? In western Liaoning, only one Jinzhou is retained, and Liaoyang Prefecture is only one Liaoyang Prefecture in Liaodong. Fortunately, there are three magistrates in this large prefecture, and the total population of the entire Liaoxi and Liaodong is less than 100,000! It is not worth establishing too many administrative regions in such a sparsely populated place, and they are all under the jurisdiction of the Governor of the Northern Zhili.

"Mr. Zhu, it's time to go to your house next. You won't have any complaints, right?"

Yang Qing said with a smile.

The Zhu Dadian family is at the level of a rich man.

"The complaints are not enough. At that time, the Duke of the National Guard should make up for me in the north. Although my family is not considered a family, many people will have dinner after all!"

Zhu Dadian said.

"Mr. Zhu is so cheerful!"

Yang Qing smiled.

In fact, these northern officials have benefited a lot, especially the northern minerals. Zhu Dadian and Zheng Chenggong jointly opened several coal mines. Now the coal burned by the Queen's dragon boat is dug out by their coal mines. As for occupying wasteland to build plantations, they have already started. Zhu Dadian alone has 200,000 acres in Shuntian by renting, using slaves to cultivate, and then planting cotton on a large scale.

Land reform does have an impact on them.

But this impact is within the scope they can accept. After all, they gain too much and can accept losing a little.

Yang Qing stood in the busy plantation and finally glanced at the Jiannu who were weeding with shackles. Then he left with satisfaction and took Zheng Chenggong and the others back to Beidu. But he did not rush to get out of the coffin of Queen Zhou, but continued to inspect the Beidu area. However, what disappointed Yang Qing was that no one in the south dared to rebel...

The bandits are still in trouble.

It is obvious that the court officials did not have the courage to directly fight against Yang Qing by force.

They are all smart people.

They knew the result of the force confrontation, not to mention that they were not at the end of their lives. As for the resistances that the gentry in the local area could no longer bear and spontaneously made, they could just sit idly by. Hundreds of thousands of troops were pressing against Nanzhili, and the resistance of these gentry could only be a mantis arm to chariots.

The land reform in the Ming Dynasty continued.

Yang Qing and the Empress stayed in Beidu until September of this year before they got out of the coffin of Empress Zhou, then boarded the ship and returned to Nandu, and buried her with Chongzhen in Anling.

After the funeral, the Queen appointed Zhu commoner as King Xin for the purpose of welcoming the coffin, and her fiefdom was Yingzhou. Then her brother was packaged on the fleet to the fiefdom, and accompanied by Her Majesty the Queen himself mobilized the 5,000 immigrants who were finally pieced together. They will move to Yingzhou as the guard of King Xin, and in addition, they will regularly change defenses, a land brigade and a fleet of twenty cruisers. The main task is to conquer those small islands in the Pacific...

These islands can be numerous.

Moreover, many of them are quite valuable. The conquest of these archipelagos from the Ming Dynasty was too far away, but it was easy to conquer the islands in the southwest Pacific with Hawaii as a base.

In short, the former Emperor Longxing completely left the sight of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

Although he can still come back.

After all, he was a vassal king and not a prisoner, but in fact the distance was far away, coupled with the embarrassment of his identity, he would definitely not come back before the steam-powered sea ship matured. However, his newly born son was left in the palace and was raised by Her Majesty the Queen. It was obvious that the Queen also prevented her brother from dying in the distant Hawaii, even if it had been controlled by the Ming army and had completed the cleaning work, it would be difficult to ensure that there would be no accidents on such a long voyage.

After the funeral, Liang King Zhu Cilang also embarked on a journey to Guanxi. He followed him two cavalry troops, and there were also five thousand immigrants who followed him. He would command these two cavalry troops, plus one of the original Guanxi army, to complete the complete destruction of the Yarkand Khan. In addition, the vassal officials such as Junggar Khan, Heshuot Khan also received imperial edicts for cooperation in combat. They would happily respect the edict. Although they were not allowed to occupy land, they could loot at will, especially to capture slaves and sell slave traders to Ming Dynasty. In this way, the army of the Ming court, together with these vassals, swept Guanxi in three directions and completely restored to the territory where the Tang Dynasty was there.

Including Ruiye City.

Although Suoye City was in the area controlled by the Junggar Khan at this time, since he was a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was of course qualified to build a city in his territory.

It’s not just about building a ruined leaf city.

The post road system that leads to Saiye must also be built.

As for the Junggar Khan...

He had to agree, and he had to agree, and he had to agree. In fact, he had no right to object, because the Russians were still eyeing them. Besides, the Ming Dynasty also supported them to sweep Kazakhstan, and there was no need to fall out with the Ming Dynasty for this small matter. While resisting the Russians' southward journey, the real target of the Junggar tribe was Kazakhstan, which was the Dayuzi and Zhongyuzi, which was their expansion direction in Central Asia. In history, they and the Kazakhs fought on this land for decades, and it was not until the Junggar tribe was exterminated by the Qing army that the Kazakhs got rid of this nightmare.

The third person to go to the town was the King of Tang.

Although his Zhaonan City had not been truly completed at this time, as the governor of Zhaonan, he could first station the colony of Hexian. This colony originally developed by Guangdong gentry has been officially handed over to the country. Before the completion of Zhaonan City, Hexian will be temporarily replaced. In the future, Zhaonan City will be built completely according to the standards of giant fortresses, including prisms, forts, ports, and even some necessary factories. In addition, 10,000 families will be immigrated to Zhaonan City. In short, this city is the core of the Ming Dynasty in the future in Nanyang. Even the home port of the Nanyang Fleet was changed to Zhaonan City, and the home port of Zhoushan was changed to the Tuo Fleet. After all, there were no enemies near the sea.

Just keep a local fleet.

Even if it is a training base.

But the real main fleet will push the vast majority to the South Ocean, or even the Indian Ocean. The next step is to march into the Red Sea. As for India, it will not be in Yang Qing's expansion direction, and it will be better to hand them over to Britain. The Ming Dynasty and Britain are still friendly. Anyway, the British are nothing more than sucking blood in India.

The blood they sucked would flow to the Ming Dynasty.

The main reason is that India has too many populations, conquering such places is meaningless. When slaves are from the source, the commodity dumping market and raw material supply are the best. It is really worth conquering with force. Instead, it is the Arabian Peninsula that seems the most valuable at this time. Yang Qing also has to carry out his canal plan. The Spaniards have shown great interest in this. They have become second-rate goods. The trade line of Europe is controlled by the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. If there is such a canal, then Spain, which has Gibraltar, will regain the trade between the East and the West. After all, no one can enter the Mediterranean without opening the door, and at most the French can get a share of the pie, but the two strong players who have already fought for the spoils can be kicked aside.

The King of Earth still has a lot of dreams.

The Dutch were very dissatisfied with the Ming army's out-of-expansion in Southeast Asia, but they were helpless when they were defeated in Europe. After all, they were not even defeated by the British, let alone the stronger Ming Dynasty.

After the Tang King went to the town, he immediately began to attack Boni. The Ming army, which had crossed the seas, landed on Boni, but because of the rough ethnic policy, the people of Boni rebelled. They actually resisted for two months before they scattered birds and beasts in front of the Ming army that had arrived continuously. Most of the Boni surrendered, and a small number of people fled into the forest to join the Dayak headhunter. In short, the country completely disappeared, and the original Boni became a prefecture in the southern province of Zhao of the Ming Dynasty. In the following year, the Ming army quickly cleared out several other sultans in Borneo. Because of the Ming army participating in the battle, a large number of gold mines were discovered in western Borneo, and the Ming Dynasty quickly set off a wave of gold rush in Borneo...

The Dutch still endured it silently.

What else can you do if you can't bear it?

The two first-class ships of the Ming army were in Zhaonan City and ran to bombard Batavia at any time. As for Malacca City, Malacca City was completely surrounded, even Dutch merchant ships entering Malacca had to sail through the Ming army's muzzle first. Merchant ships from other countries no longer entered Malacca City, but instead stopped in Zhaonan City to replenish supplies. It can be said that after the city was completely built, Malacca City was completely invalid.

The Strait of Malacca has already belonged to the Ming Dynasty.

Fortunately, Yang Qing finally calmed down after this round of expansion, mainly because domestic land reform has reached the most critical stage.

However, it was in this year that the Ming Dynasty Shu Duke Zhang Xianzhong died of illness, and the Duke of the Guru did not make a list afterwards. He kept his promise and let Zhang Xianzhong's son inherit the title of Duke Shu Duke, so Sun Kewang and others wrote letters to request to retire. The military leaders of Li Zicheng's subordinates also retired one after another. These heroes completely bid farewell to the stage of the Ming Dynasty. In the end, only Li Laiheng, who was the leader of the Peasants and Democratic Party, and Li Dingguo, who had also retired but was forcibly stayed by Yang Qing to continue serving as the governor of Sichuan...

His work achievements are obvious to all.

This person's kindness and kindness are extremely suitable for places like Sichuan. Sichuan has fully achieved the Confucian harmony under his nearly ten years of governance. He never closes his doors at night and does not pick up any leave. It is pitiful that countless great scholars have dreamed of for generations, but they were actually realized by a bandit-born person!

This is really ironic.

Therefore, in the future, the Duke of Protecting the Country will have to entrust him with a heavier burden!

The land reform in Nanzhili was officially completed at the end of this year. No matter how hard the gentry wanted to struggle, their fate was destined to be so destined that after the land clearance was completed, all the land in Nanzhili would be nationalized.

Whether you agree or not,

In short, the land deeds in the hands of the gentry of Southern Zhili were all invalidated from the moment the Queen's imperial edict was promulgated and had no legal effect. All they could do was accept their destiny, then go to the land reform teams in various places to register, receive their land coupons, and obtain the land reclamation certificate for the northern land. Of course, as the people of the Ming Dynasty, they could also get the land they should share and cultivate themselves...

If they want.
Chapter completed!
