Chapter 675 The South Seas and the Western Regions

Let’s talk about Lin Chunhong’s tradition of relocating the Han people, and sighed: “Although the population has skyrocketed, it is difficult to guide it to Southeast Asia. What a pity, it’s a pity!”

Except for Zhu Zhiyu, everyone felt it was difficult and their faces looked serious.

Zhu Zhiyu had obviously thought about this issue in detail and immediately said: "The Han people do not understand Nanyang, which is the most fundamental reason, not the relocation of the land. When it comes to Nanyang, everyone thinks of miasma, and of course they are afraid of it. In fact, there is only the so-called miasma in the dense forests of Nanyang. Even if it is malaria, there are targeted drugs now, which is not to be afraid. To guide the Han people to Nanyang, the first priority is publicity. It is necessary to let the Han people realize that Nanyang is a hot land, full of opportunities to make money everywhere; it is necessary to let the Han people know that Manila, Dagupan, Temasek, and Batavia in Nanyang are similar to Guangzhou, and there is no such thing as miasma."

Lin Chunhong was overjoyed, nodded continuously, and signaled Zhu Zhiyu to continue speaking.

Zhu Zhiyu was inspired and continued: "The second priority is to set an example by the official and move some maritime institutions to Nanyang. For example, the Maritime Governor's Office, which used to take charge of affairs in Guangdong, Guangxi, and Nanyang, and military and civil affairs. Now, Guangdong, Guangxi, Jiaozhi, and Guangnan Administration Office has been established, and most of the civil affairs have been separated and will continue to stay in Guangzhou. It is obviously out of place. If the Maritime Governor's Office is moved to Temasek, at least tens of thousands of Han people will be brought to Temasek, and the people will believe that Nanyang is not dangerous."

Lin Chunhong was surprised. The relocation of the Maritime Governor's Office was actually proposed by Zhu Zhiyu, not Zhang Zhao. Could it be that Zhu Zhiyu and Zhang Zhao had already known the plans of the officials in advance? And had they coordinated in advance?

It seems that any idea of ​​underestimating the talented and intelligent people in the world is not advisable!

Sure enough, Zhang Zhao looked calm and did not show any strange look.

On the contrary, Lu Shiming was quite excited and added: "It is better to move the home port of the Western Fleet to Temasek or Batavia, and only the Nanyang squadron in Hong Kong are responsible for maintaining order in the South China Sea. In addition, the naval school does not have to be placed in Suixi, but can be moved to any of Manila, Batavia, and Temasek. The migration of the military headquarters is enough to bring hundreds of thousands of Han people to the South China Sea."

Now it is only the proposal stage and does not involve decision-making. Therefore, everyone speaks freely, and Zhang Jief will record it and leave it to future arguments.

Lin Chunhong said happily: "Any problem, as long as you work together, there are methods. Zhu Muzeng continued."

Zhu Zhiyu continued: "From the future, all officials who have served in the Nanyang area can be promoted first."

Zhang Zhao and Lu Shiyuan cast a grateful look at Zhu Zhiyu. As the spokesperson of the Shanghai School, it is their responsibility to gain a little advantage for their subordinates.

Lin Chunhong smiled and said, "It seems that in the future, we can all work in the Nanyang area, grasslands, and northwest deserts, and we can all be promoted first!"

"This plan is very wonderful!"

Everyone speaks freely:

"Encouraging the imperial court to take imperial examinations in the Nanyang area..."

"In the Ming Dynasty, persuading the people to the South Ocean, the grassland, and the northwest can be included in the performance assessment as political achievements..."

"Anyone who goes to Nanyang to operate a plantation and farming can purchase insurance for it at Sany Society to ensure that the rear road is safe..."

...

Everyone has broad ideas and various tricks emerge one after another, which made Lin Chunhong full of confidence in the development of Nanyang and summarized with great enthusiasm: "Whoever put forward the suggestions, I will work hard these days, come up with detailed plans, report them to the Gemu Sub-Sect, and then the Gemu Sub-Sect will make the case. With your wonderful plans, how can we be difficult for me to develop Nanyang?"

...

Everyone dispersed, and Lin Chunhong left only Lu Shiyuan. Lu Shiyuan was frightened and stood with his head down, not daring to say a word.

"Why are you standing? Sit down!" Lin Chunhong blamed.

Lu Shiyuan said "Mr. Xie", slowly moved to the chair, and placed half of his butt on the chair.

"The achievements of Nanyang are obvious to all, why should Governor Lu be nervous? At present, the entire Ming Dynasty is in a sharp rise. The northwest, grassland, northeast, and Nanyang are all in need of pioneering people like Governor Lu. I am very satisfied with the work of Governor Lu."

"It's all for the blessing of the marquis..."

Lin Chunhong said: "Don't say these useless words. There are many rumors now, but they are very unfavorable to you!"

Lu Shiyuan was shocked and rolled down from the chair in a hurry, fell to the ground, and said, "Marty, don't believe the rumors. My subordinates are doing things in Nanyang and offended many people, and there are many enemies, all of them are enemies arranged by their subordinates!"

Lin Chunhong stared at Lu Shiyuan, and his sharp eyes made Lu Shiyuan feel frightened, and the muscles on his face kept beating.

"Do you take this seriously?" After a long time, Lin Chunhong said something.

Lu Shiyuan snatched the ground with his head and cried, "This is true!"

Lin Chunhong said: "Get up and talk, sit down!"

Lu Shiyuan got up from the ground tremblingly, and then sat down with half of his butt next to the chair.

Lin Chunhong continued: "I have never believed in rumors. The Supervision Office and Security Department cannot find evidence. I think you are innocent. However, you should also know from the insider that after the establishment of the Guanglu Academy, all counties have Guanglushi. There are many unsatisfactory scholars and juren in Guanglushi, who are interested in discovering corruption and dereliction of duty. Since April this year, more than ten officials have been dismissed and have been sent to the mine for labor reform. I remind you, don't let these Guanglushis target them, otherwise you will suffer."

Lu Shiyuan was speechless and had a pale face.

Seeing that the purpose of warning Lu Shiyuan had been achieved, Lin Chunhong changed the subject and asked: "Do you understand the belief and system of the Matalan Sultanate?"

Lu Shiyuan's mind was blank. Seeing Lin Chunhong suddenly changed the topic, he was stunned for a while before he woke up and replied carefully: "The Matalan Sultanate believes in Islam and implements the policy of unity of administration and religion. However, believers are similar to the Islam in Ningxia, which is relatively mild, and unlike the Ottoman Turks, it seems extreme."

Lin Chunhong nodded, remained silent for a while, and continued to ask: "In the short term, can we break the integration of politics and religion in the Sultanate of Matalan?"

Lu Shiyuan replied: "The possibility is not high. Unless you directly send troops to destroy the country."

Lin Chunhong thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's not worth taking, take it slowly. How likely do you think it is to let Muslims lift the restrictions on intermarriage?"

Lu Shiyuan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Does the Marquis want to change the faith of Muslims? If they really want to change the faith of Muslims, there is a ready-made example hundreds of years ago. My subordinates have studied the history of the founding of Spain. Spain was established on the basis of changing the faith of Muslims. The means used are nothing more than power. With the current military strength of Jingzhou, it should not be difficult to really change the faith of Muslims. It is just... just..."

"Just what?"

"Huaxia emphasizes a kind of inclusive and inclusive, and it embraces all rivers. If it really forces Muslims to change their beliefs, the impact may not be predictable now. For the sake of mere Islam, Chinese civilization has lost the talent of inclusive and inclusive, and it is not worth the loss."

Lin Chunhong looked at Lu Shiyuan with admiration. It seems that with the broader vision, these subordinates have considered issues more and more deeply, and are enough to shoulder the important task of carrying forward the Chinese civilization.

Lin Chunhong laughed and said, "You are right. I didn't want to force Muslims to change my beliefs, but I just felt that the inability to intermarry with other believers would make them more obstructive and unable to keep pace with the times. This is a hidden danger within China. Therefore, I wanted to change their bad habit of forbidding intermarriage among pagans."

Lu Shiyuan replied: "It's nothing difficult to just change a bad habit and vigorously promote it. If the Marquis is not prepared to vigorously promote it, it can encourage money and take care of it in policies, but it will take longer to do so."

Lin Chunhong said: "It's all right to promote it vigorously. The Ming Dynasty has time, so why bother to be anxious at this moment? Besides, the Muslims in the Ming Dynasty are more or less influenced by Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and are relatively mild. It's better to encourage intermarriage from an economic and political perspective."

"In addition, in addition to the Muslims in Ningxia..." Lin Chunhong continued: "There are also the Yarkand Khanate who believes in Islam to the west of the Hexi Corridor. Almost all of them believe in Islam in the west of Yarkand. The Islam they believe in is much more extreme than the Islam in the Ming Dynasty. What do you think about governing the Western Regions?"

Lu Shiyuan immediately realized that Lin Chunhong was likely to send him to the Western Regions. The Western Regions were full of deserts, sparsely populated, and almost no business trips. How could he compare to Nanyang?

However, whether the position is important has nothing to do with the local wealth, but with the difficulty of the problems facing the local area. Obviously, the problems in the Western Regions are far more difficult than those in the South China Sea.

Lu Shiyuan confirmed that Lin Chunhong still trusted him and still wanted to reuse him.

Lu Shiyuan thought carefully for a moment and said carefully: "Li Zicheng is currently a bondage force in Jingzhou. If there is anything inconvenient to do by Jingzhou, you can completely instruct Li Zicheng to do it. The subordinates think that the Divine Blade Army and the Dragon Martial Army can strengthen their support for Li Zicheng, and simply destroy the country of Yarkand, and Li Zicheng will control the former land of Yarkand and the people. Li Zicheng was born as a bandit, and during the war, the killing will be severe. When Li Zicheng concentrates all his resentment on him, the time for Jingzhou to take over the south of Tianshan will be ripe."

Lin Chunhong asked, "Aren't you afraid of Li Zicheng's backlash?"

Lu Shiyuan said: "At that time, I wish Li Zicheng would rebel. Isn't the reason for sending troops in Jingzhou more sufficient?"

Lin Chunhong laughed loudly, feeling extremely happy. Such dark things are most suitable to discuss with the largest slave trader.

The two discussed for a long time and refined the plan. At the end, Lin Chunhong said: "The ministers in Jingzhou are the ones you and Peng Xin are the most aggressive. The position of the Governor of the Western Regions will be handed over to you. As for the Governor of the Western Regions, how much the Governor of the Western Regions can manage and how many people it depends on your own ability."

Lu Shiyuan has been immersed in the officialdom for many years, but how can he not tell that Lin Chunhong transferred him to Nanyang to be both a warning and a protective sign? He couldn't help but burst into tears and choked up and said, "How dare I not do my best?"
