Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 56 The Northern Expedition is finally coming.

Chapter 56. The Northern Expedition is finally about to begin.

Sending Rodriguez, a famous European fraudster, to deceive the loyal ministers of the Qing Dynasty was just a small step for Zhu Daohua.

"My lord, Rodriguez is really capable. Now Vicente and Liu Guangliang are going to take him to Guangzhou to meet Fukang'an."

Gong Zhuman came to report the latest progress of Rodriguez

Zhu Daohua nodded slightly: "If this person doesn't have any skills, he won't be offered a reward by those big European firms. You can keep an eye on him. This guy is not trustworthy."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, his children are his weakness."

Gong Zhuman said.

Zhu Daohua nodded slightly, and after explaining a few more words, he asked Gong Zhuman to step back first.

Then they summoned Gu Song and Luo Fangbo who were preparing for the first "imperial examination" of Ming Dynasty.

The imperial examination this time is not an examination of eight-legged essays.

It is mainly divided into two categories.

One subject is policy theory, and the other is mathematics.

The two subjects are tested together.

Each subject is worth 100 points, and the top 350 students will be selected.

With a total of more than 4000 people signing up.

The admission rate is already very high.

It is different from the previous imperial examinations where you can wait for the official status.

This time, those admitted will have to enter the Daming School of Political Affairs for training, and only after obtaining a "certificate of completion" can they be awarded corresponding positions based on the school's performance scores.

This is actually a "political officer assault training camp".

It's not too different from the "Corps Assault Training" at the Army and Naval Academy.

Of course, it is impossible to train any particularly powerful talents.

But after some training, at least he won't be blind when he takes office.

And the purpose of holding this imperial examination.

Of course, it was for the establishment of Lanfang Province.

Before defeating Lanfang.

Luo Fangbo traded Lanfang Yiguo for his sister to be the Queen of Ming Dynasty.

To be honest, looking at it now.

Luo Fangbo, a local tyrant in Lanfang, is highly regarded.

But Zhu Daohua back then had no more than [-] soldiers, and his territory was only a few islands.

Being able to take a queen who takes a country as a dowry is naturally not a disadvantage.

Moreover, he had to base himself in Nanyang at that time, using Nanyang as the base for the Northern Expedition to Guangdong.

Naturally, it is necessary to establish a good relationship with the local local tyrants.

The current Zhu Daohua does not need to be like this, he has established his position in Nanyang with absolute force superiority.

That's why he was able to suppress the local tyrants in Lanfang, let them hand over part of the land in their hands, disband their halls and arms, bring the Lanfang Chinese into direct jurisdiction, and also collect taxes and conscription in Lanfang.

But it is not easy to do this.

He is not Mongolian.

Kill or bury.

To truly establish a stable rule in one place, it must rely on a systematic civil service system.

As for how to get administrative cadres.

China has a history with many experiences that can be gleaned from.

Just improve it and use it.

And let the children of the Lanfang clans become local officials.

It is only the first step in transforming Lanfang.

In the future, Zhu Daohua will gain territory in the mainland.

You can expand your source of cadres.

Phase out the problem of too many "indigenous officials" in Lanfang Province.

Luo Fangbo and Gu Song came together.

If nothing unexpected happens.

Lord Luo Fangbo of Lan Guo will become the Governor of Lan Fang of the "First Province of New Ming Dynasty".

According to the local official position setting.

The local province extended the Ming Dynasty's "Chengxuan Political Envoy Division", renamed the province, and set up the post of Chief Political Envoy to be in charge of local administration.

At the same time, a "procuratorial department" was set up in provincial institutions to take charge of local justice.

In addition, considering that Lanfang is located in West Borneo, it needs to compete with the countries of Borneo for territory, water sources, and minerals.

Luo Fangbo suggested improving the Daming Guard system.

Set up a "commander of the capital", and all men of the right age in Lanfang Province are required to participate in military training. At the same time, a guard station is set up at the border between West Borneo and other countries, and the fields are expanded.

As such.

Administrative, judicial, and local military are all in charge of the three aspects.

The position of governor is temporary.

If a province like Lanfang does not have a governor to coordinate and command the various divisions.

The efficiency of the operation will be greatly reduced, which is not conducive to the expansion in West Borneo-Zhu Daohua will not invest his main force in West Borneo, and the opponents are only the natives of Borneo. In addition, there are few people in Lanfang. Therefore, the expansion in West Borneo is to gradually erode in the form of guards one by one.

And under Lanfang Province.

Set up three government.

They are Kunzhou Prefecture with Pontianak as the center, Luzhou Prefecture with Dongwanlu as the center, and Fazhou Prefecture with Sanfa as the center.

The three places were renamed Kunzhou, Luzhou and Fazhou respectively.

Each prefecture set up a magistrate's yamen, and each department in the province also set up a yamen to take charge of the affairs of each government.

There are counties under the state.

There are eight counties in Kunzhou, six counties in Luzhou, and seven counties in Fazhou.

The expansion of Kunzhou will expand southeast along the largest river in Borneo, which is renamed Kunjiang.

The expansion direction of Luzhou Capital will expand eastward.

The expansion direction of Fazhou is along the coastline to the north, gradually eroding Brunei, and gradually driving the aborigines northward.

"Your Majesty, this is the preliminary plan of Lanfang Province. One province, three prefectures and 21 counties have a total population of more than [-] (only counting Chinese). The land in Borneo is fertile, and rice is grown three times a year. The population that can be accommodated is far away." More than that, in the future, immigrants from the mainland can be moved to Lanfang, and the local natives will be gradually squeezed out.”

Luo Fangbo said.

In fact, he still has something to say.

That is to emigrate to Lanfang from the mainland.

The establishment of Tuntian villages with military guards will greatly dilute the influence of the original Chinese local tyrants in Lanfang.

With the change of population structure and land structure.

It is only a matter of time before Lanfang becomes a Han province like the provinces in the interior.

Zhu Daohua stared at the map of West Borneo and nodded slightly.

"Uncle Fang, you are doing something that will benefit the present and benefit the future."

Zhu Daohua said.

"Now the provinces of Han are densely populated, with a population of more than [-] million. In the future, even if this king revives Daming and sits on the dragon chair in Beijing, these [-] million Han people who are waiting to be fed will be the most important thing for you and me." But it's all a huge burden."

Hearing this, Luo Fangbo nodded solemnly.

As the first Duke of the New Ming Dynasty to retire with the country.

Now Lanfang Luo's family and Zhu Daohua are completely bound in their interests.

The downfall of previous dynasties in history all started when the people did not have enough to eat
This population is so large.

It's a ticking time bomb.

"So, we have to move the overcrowded population out of the Han land."

"Borneo, Sumatra, Java."

Zhu Daohua's hand kept going down.

Keep your hands on the huge southern continent. These territories can be directly ruled by future technological means.

"These are sites with extremely fertile land. If we don't take them today, when will we take them?"

"Thirty million Chinese people huddled in a corner of Shenzhou, starved of food and clothing, European white barbarians, plundering Africa, occupying North and South America, and the whole world is fat, and they accounted for eighty-nine out of ten! Ten million, Shenzhou has been surrounded, but the Manchu and Qing courts don't know it, it is a parasite lying on Huaxia's blood-sucking parasite, using the essence of Huaxia to raise the Tartars of the Eight Banners!"

"This is China's misfortune!"

"This is a great shame and humiliation to us!"

"How can we men of the Han family bear such a huge humiliation."

"The descendants of the king's great ancestor, I would like to carry the three-foot sword. On February [-]th, I will sail northward to recover Guangdong, Jiangnan, and the Central Plains!!"

"Expel the Tartars and restore China!"

Zhu Daohua's voice resounded in the hall.

Young officers at the Army and Naval Academy.

The young students of the University of Government Affairs.

Stand up suddenly.

They followed Zhu Daohua and shouted in unison.

"Expel the Tartars! Restore China!"

The sound boomed.

All eyes were turned to the north.
