The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 527 The devil’s heart is at peace
Dayuan Island.

Different from Qiongzhou Island, Qiongzhou Island had already established counties and implemented management as early as the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

But Da Yuan Island has experienced many twists and turns.

Also during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Qiongzhou Island was successfully brought under management, while Dajuan Island was not actually managed due to difficulty, but it belonged to the Han Dynasty.

Even during the Three Kingdoms period, in order to expand his territory, Sun Wu sent more than [-] soldiers into Dajuan Island. As a result, nine out of ten soldiers died or were injured due to illness.

Such casualties were not sacrifices in defeat. Sun Quan was so angry that he immediately had Wei Wen and Zhuge Zhi imprisoned and executed.

This huge loss meant that no one would try to manage Da Yuan Island for hundreds of years.

Even the Sui Dynasty.

Because of the long time ago, there were already indigenous people from other areas in the area, and they were defeated by the Sui Dynasty soldiers.

But in the end, due to injuries, the army did not dare to stay any longer and retreated to the interior. Once again, they met the same ending as Sun Wu.

By the Song Dynasty, more and more people were landing on Dayu Island, and there were also black natives who even drove boats to invade Quanzhou and other places.

Arrived in the Yuan Dynasty.

It was the same as the Sui Dynasty, and the record was even worse. Only more than 100 people were captured, and they eventually returned to the mainland.

Then in the Ming Dynasty, due to the Japanese pirates in the early Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty officially stationed troops in the Penghu area and set up water fortresses.

And because of the maritime ban, the fishermen in Fujian who left the land and made a living on the sea finally settled in Dajuan.

The sailors in the Penghu area did not prohibit it, but they meant that they could not do it if they ordered it. This was also the social custom of the Ming Dynasty.

Ming Dynasty was unable to implement the decrees that were unacceptable to the people at the local level.

In short.

From the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in BC to the [-]th century in the early Ming Dynasty, Dajuan Island returned to China again.

Even during the Ming and Zheng dynasties in history, Da Yuan Island was completely opened up and truly developed, with improvements in all aspects.

Nowadays, with the number of exiled people and the intensity of sending soldiers.

Based on the Penghu Inspection Department, the natural port on Daiyuan Island in the east is named Beigang as a transportation point.

In addition to building docks, cities were built in the western plain area of ​​Dayu Island, cultivated farmland, and absorbed local Fujian immigrants.

At the same time, two new naval forces were established, a Qiongzhou Navy and a Dayuandao Navy. Sailors were recruited from coastal military households, and warships were built by the Fujian Changle Shipyard.

At the same time, the Joint Military-Commercial Department and more than a dozen companies followed in the footsteps of the Joint Military-Commercial Department and established the Taiyuan Island Development Company.

Wu Zhenmeng was fired from the army.

However, most outsiders don't know that Wu Zhenmeng's military status is still retained. Although he was assigned to Taiyuan Island, he was hired by the Military-Commercial Joint Department to join the newly established armed business group.

The armed business group pointed out by Zhu Gaochi in Peking was finally established. The current quota is 5000 people and it is managed by the Military-Commercial Joint Department instead of leaving it to the business group.

Grassroots military attachés in the new army like Wu Zhenmeng are the targets of the Military-Commercial Joint Department, followed by soldiers with complicated origins.

With the opening of the sea and the vigorous development of the mainland, a large number of merchants began maritime trade, creating a need for armed forces.

Although they are all officially affiliated with the Armed Merchant Group, their management rights are actually very confusing.

Soldiers like Wu Zhenmeng are our own in the eyes of the Military-Commercial Joint Department, and they are internal forces worth using with confidence.

Therefore, Wu Zhenmeng was assigned to an important internal location like Taiyuan Island, rather than other armed forces with complex sources.

However, Wu Zhenmeng and the others will not stay in Dayuan, they are just familiar with the local area of ​​Dayuan and will continue to go south soon.

It is equivalent to a training base to allow them to adapt as soon as possible.

The chief officer is under the management of Quanzhou Prefecture, and supplies are supplied by Quanzhou Port. Officials have been assigned to serve as local county magistrates.

There are also doctors sent from China to provide medical support.

Wu Zhenmeng looked at the letter in his hand.

His mother wrote to him, asking him how he was doing, and telling him that his sentry had visited her and left five dollars.

The sea breeze is strong.

Thousands of exiles, defeated prisoners, and eunuchs sent by Korean trading companies made Taiyuan Island change every day.

Wu Zhenmeng has fought countless battles in Da Yuan.

The Fujian immigrants in the top ranks are very supportive of them. Historically, there were tens of thousands of immigrants in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, but currently there are only a few thousand immigrants.

Then there are the mature tribes. Most of these mature tribes were immigrants from the mainland in the early years and are the largest population group.

Because time has passed, the words have become somewhat incomprehensible.

However, they retained their farming methods, mainly in the Taiyuan Plain area, which is the western area of ​​the Taiyuan coast.

They welcomed the arrival of mainlanders and got along well with Fujian immigrants and were able to communicate with them.

Then there is the Shengbu tribe. The Shengbu tribe relies on forest hunting to survive. Its productivity is very low. It is no different from savages. It can eat people and is a tribe that cannot communicate.

The Mature Ministry and the Health Ministry have been at war all year round. After the immigrants from Fujian came, they joined the Mature Ministry and fought against the Health Ministry.

Historically, when the Mature tribe was defeated, the remaining people would flee into the mountains and come out to farm again after the Mature tribe retreated.

When the cooked part has the upper hand, it will go into the mountains to destroy the raw part.

According to the latest statistics.

There are more than 9000 immigrants from Fujian, plus more than 5000 exiles, a total of [-] people. Although the Mingbu has a large population, it actually has less than [-] people. As for the Shengbu, the population is even smaller.

Historically, the population during the Ming and Zheng Dynasties was only about 1811. Later, the Ming Dynasty was completely destroyed. In 200, there were nearly [-] million people on the island, all of whom were survivors of the Ming Dynasty.

Wu Zhenmeng's mission is to eliminate the Ministry of Health.

The historical Sheng Department was also eliminated during the Ming and Zheng Dynasties, leaving only the Cooked Department.

The war came to an end and Wu Zhenmeng's team went on vacation.

The climate here is good, if you don't consider the sea breeze. After receiving the letter from his mother, Wu Zhenmeng read it many times under the tree outside the barracks.

"You never write back."

The companion asked curiously.

Although he was very reluctant to leave, he never replied to the letter. The soldier did not understand his sentry officer very well.Wu Zhenmeng ignored him.

I hate myself inside.

Why did I wake up so late and let my mother suffer for so many years? If I had gone to find my mother earlier.

He knew what he was doing was wrong, but he couldn't control it.

When he saw the people who killed his mother, he decided to kill them.

If you don't kill them, you will go crazy.

This freed him, but it was his mother who was hurt. Wu Zhenmeng didn't reply, and he felt confused.

Came to the Taoist temple again.

Meditating in front of the Taoist statue, with sandalwood burning in the Taoist temple and smelling the incense, Wu Zhenmeng's irritable heart gradually calmed down.

Taking daily vacations and meditating at the Taoist temple has become Wu Zhenmeng's place of meditation. Only here can he forget some things for a short time.

"Supreme Taiyi Duer Tianzun."

next door.

The sound of Taoist priests chanting came over.

There is a tablet enshrined there. Wu Zhenmeng brought his father's tablet. Thinking of the image of his father in his impression, Wu Zhenmeng felt more and more at peace in his heart.

enemy.

He killed them all with his own hands so that his father could rest in peace.

People from Fujian Changle Shipyard are here, and they want to establish a branch factory on Dayuan Island, because there is a large amount of camphor wood on Dayuan Island, which is the most suitable wood for making sailboats. It is also available on Qiongzhou Island, but Dayuan Island is more abundant.

Wu Zhenmeng returned to the cold sentry officer and led his men to protect the safety of the workers.

After more than a dozen sweeps, the Ministry of Health has rarely been seen.

"For wood used in boats, the harder the better, not ordinary wood." Technicians surveyed the site to find the most suitable felling area. The preliminary work will take at least three years.

As the demand for ships explodes, the production capacity of the three major shipyards cannot keep up because of insufficient reserves.

As for the wood used to make the ship, the preliminary preparation work cannot be saved, otherwise the ship will soon rot at sea, which will take less than a few years.

"It's all wood, what's the difference?"

the soldier asked curiously.

Wu Zhenmeng paid attention to his surroundings and was not interested in their conversation.

"As the old saying goes, pine has been exposed to the sun for thousands of years, and camphor has been soaked in water for thousands of years. It can be seen that the best wood on the water is camphor wood. It must have both toughness and good pull properties. It will not be too hard or brittle, otherwise the cutting process will be over. There won’t be much change before and after the water.”

The technician was a talkative person, and he was transferred from Jinzhou to Fujian.

Wu Zhenmeng couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

The group finally returned to the camp.

"Xiao Wu."

While they were away, many people came to the camp, and many ships docked at the harbor. Wu Zhenmeng didn't know that someone would come. He was still curious when he suddenly heard a voice calling him.

He quickly followed the sound and saw Li Jian.

"Li Tou, why are you here?"

Wu Zhenmeng said happily, quickly stepped forward to hug Li Jian, and patted him hard on the back.

Li Jian was a good friend of his old sentry officer, and they later met on the battlefield. Although they only met twice, the friendship on the battlefield was particularly precious.

"You kid, you are too impulsive."

Li Jian hammered Wu Zhenmeng's chest.

Wu Zhenmeng had already let go of Li Jian and smiled without saying anything. He didn't want to mention that matter more.

night.

Wu Zhenmeng and Li Jian made an appointment to drink together.

There was no appetizer, so I drank directly from the wine bottle.

Damuan Island has a pleasant climate and it is not a windy season. It is rich in products and you can often see fruits.

"There's going to be a war. You can apply to return to the army. Your military status is still there."

Li Jian revealed quietly.

It would be a pity that Wu Zhenmeng's talent has left the army.

Unlike the senior officials, they started as small soldiers, step by step, and grew together with the new army from scratch, becoming the cornerstone of the army.

Just as His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun said.

The strength of the army is always based on people.

Wu Zhenmeng did not ask where he wanted to fight. He thought about it and shook his head.

"why?"

Li Jian asked in astonishment. He thought Wu Zhenmeng would be very happy to hear the news.

Wu Zhenmeng stared at his hands.

a long time.

"I can no longer adapt to the atmosphere of the army. The armed business group is more suitable for me." Wu Zhenmeng said calmly.

Li Jian shook his head.

There is no future. How can people like them care about making big money? Just as he was about to persuade him again, he noticed Wu Zhenmeng's eyes. The coldness in his eyes made people feel slightly chilly.

The two stopped talking and toasted each other.

As if mourning the past time.
