Daming One Piece

Chapter 208 Big Boss Donglin (First update, please subscribe)
The door to the world has been opened!
What is the game of international diplomacy?
Of course, it is pulling one side and hitting the other side.

In the world of 1626, who is the biggest threat to Ming's colonial cause?

It is not Spain, which is obsessed with preaching, digging gold and silver, and willing to be a miner in the world, nor is it England, which is still immersed in the local revolution, and it is not France in turmoil.

But Holland!

In order to defeat the Netherlands, the sea coachman, England has fought many wars with it.

As for Southeast Asia, the Netherlands is also a threat to Daming. It poses a serious threat to Daming, or more precisely, Shi Yiwen's Southeast Asian immigration strategy.

And now Spain's active participation gives him the opportunity to fundamentally solve the problem of the Netherlands.

"But it still takes time!"

time!

Fortunately, time is on your side!
When leaving the chicken coop, Shi Yiwen specially met with the leaders of several nearby fan clubs. In fact, these fan clubs are not easy now. The successive waves of smallpox have caused many fan clubs to almost be wiped out. One pass to kill, the strength is far from what it used to be.

The purpose of meeting the leaders of Fanshe was of course to make them agree with the rule of Ming Dynasty. Compared with the resistance to the Spaniards, they certainly did not reject the rule of Ming Dynasty. Afterwards, Shi Yiwen asked them in the name of Beigang Consolation Envoy Yamen. Donated some cloth and medicinal materials.

All these things naturally took a lot of time, and for the soldiers and civilians of Beigang, the initial tension had passed. After all, the news of the consolation envoy's complete victory had already been brought back by the riders by land.

Not only brought back the news, but also brought back the order to colonize the north.

To colonize north is actually to develop the Taipei Basin along the countercurrent of the Tamsui River. Historically, this swampy land was not reclaimed and colonized until the 18th century.And now, with the arrival of [-] immigrants, the place is bustling again.

In September, the weather in the north of Dongfan has turned cooler, and there are no mosquitoes in the Tamsui River Basin. This is the best season of the year. For a time, there are busy people everywhere, except for the forbidden area of ​​Baizhang by the river. Besides,

Newly arrived settlers dug canals to drain the swamps and reclaim wasteland.

Slash and burn farming on this wasteland, and spread civilization to this wild land.Even the occasional reckless snake rushed out of the swamp to injure people, although it caused panic and confusion, it could not stop the footsteps of the immigrants. Each of them worked hard. The reason why they worked so hard was not only It's because they reclaimed their own land, and more importantly, their daughters-in-law--when the first batch of grain came out, the top ones could get the right to share their daughters-in-law.

Relying on the power of dividing the fields and women, it only took half a month for the immigrants to reclaim nearly [-] mu of land and plant winter wheat.

Just after the wheat was planted, the first snow fell.

Although the torrent of snowflakes were not big, for the immigrants from Liaodong and the north, they found a sense of home. This winter snow not only fell in the north, but a few days later, together with Beigang in the central It was also snowing.

In this year and month, let alone Dongfan, even Hainan will still have heavy snow, even the kind of heavy snow that can overwhelm the house.

The Little Ice Age is definitely not just talk.

Seeing the weather getting colder day by day, seeing the bastion-style fortress that had already taken shape, after leaving behind two hundred defenders, Shi Yiwen led the guards back to Beigang by land, marching all the way, surveying the construction of the official road all the way Routes, if you want to get rich, build roads first, the same is true for immigration and colonization.

As a result, it naturally took a lot of time. It was not until the beginning of October that the group returned to Beigang, and at this time the snow was getting heavier and heavier.

"This snow is really big!"

Standing in front of the wooden house, looking at the numerous snowflakes, Zhao Nanxing said to himself.

In fact, as a native of Northern Zhili, Zhao Nanxing has seen snow that is bigger than this. After all, the north has become colder and colder in recent years, and winters have become longer and longer.

However, seeing such heavy snow in Beigang on Dongfan Island was beyond his expectation. The swirling snowflakes even made him feel like returning to his hometown in Zhending.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult to return to my hometown in this life..."

With such a long sigh, Zhao Nanxing frowned tightly, with a hint of worry in his expression. In fact, his life here is quite comfortable. Not only did he not have the cruelty as imagined, he even gave his family dozens of acres of land. , even though he was old and tired, but with the efforts of his nephews, he had reclaimed more than [-] mu of land.Counting this day, it's still self-contained.

Looking at the village with only a dozen wooden houses in front of him, Zhao Nanxing still heaved a long sigh.This place must be his burial place in the future.Just here, through the swirling snowflakes, one could vaguely see a group of people walking along the official road.

"Father, there are officers and soldiers coming!"

Hearing the sound of horseshoes, Zhao Qingheng looked a little nervous.

He is also a hard-working person. At the beginning, Zhao Nanxing was dispatched to Daizhou for the Donglin Party case. As his son, Zhao Qingheng and his nephew Wang Zhongchong were dispatched together.After hearing the news, Zhao Qingheng's biological mother, Li Shi, and aunt Feng, all passed away due to excessive grief.Zhao Qingheng's seven-year-old son also died from the fright.

And now, they were exiled to Beigang together with Zhao Nanxing, although they did not have the bitter cold of sending Daizhou to defend the border.But from Zhao Qingheng's point of view, the current peaceful life is so fake that people can't believe it. How could this be exile?It's just a change of place to live.

"Uncle, could it be that Shi Shi came to the door and wanted to attack you!"

Wang Zhongchong said nervously.

Beigang is far away from the mainland. Even if my uncle died unexpectedly, I am afraid that no one in the court will hold him accountable.Wei Xie sent his uncle to this place without any good intentions at all.

"Why are you so nervous?"

Zhao Nanxing smiled lightly, looking extremely calm.As far as he is concerned, no matter whether he is alive or dead, he has long looked down on all this.

"The old man just wants to meet the comfort envoy, if he finds him, he will get his wish!"

He was really right, it was indeed Shi Yiwen who came, and he traveled all the way south from the chicken coop, and when he was approaching Beigang, he learned that Zhao Nanxing lived here, so he came to visit on a whim.

This is the famous Donglin boss!

These so-called "big bosses" still have to meet up, after all, in his colonial expansion plan, these exiled officials and scholars will play an extremely important role.

Especially after contacting the Spaniards, Shi Yiwen is even more convinced of this.
