Lord of Ming Dynasty

After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Wu Kejing, "Our main force has 2000 dead and 2000 injured, so what about the mercenary brigade and the overseer brigade? We can't let them idle like this. Tell them to kill or capture ten enemies every time. We give them a thousand francs as a reward, and for every meritorious service, I give them a promotion.

If you want to upgrade, you can still upgrade according to the previous level, from slave to captive, from working to death, to doing easy work, living in a better house than captives and slaves, and upgrading from captives and slaves to mercenary brigades or exiles The soldiers of the Brigade of Exiles, the Brigade of Exiles, and the Brigade of Mercenaries have turned into civilians, and we will not pursue their identities in the future. "

"In addition, we can send some ships to take the initiative to sell our slaves to France, Spain and other places to reduce the non-Han population here. The non-Han people among the people should also find a way to sell them. Our Han people are still too large. At least, non-Han people should be controlled to a certain proportion, and there won’t be too many enemies on the main island, so we have to deal with these people as soon as possible.

When it stabilizes, we will have no excuse to deal with these people. Keeping these people will only make us more uncomfortable in the future. "

The first thousand 310 chapters and nine specific clearing of the enemy on the main island

St. Johns, this is the capital of Newfoundland, the descendant of Newfoundland, and it is also the largest deep-water port in Newfoundland. The city used to live in 8 people. In this era, it is still very desolate, but this can't stop Luo Zuo Their eyesight could not stop the eyes of the British. Luo Zuo took over the work of clearing the sky mines and set the political and military center of the Avalan Peninsula here.

It is more suitable for living and survival. The area of ​​cultivated land is larger than that of the entire neighboring peninsula. The entire Avalan Peninsula is very suitable for people to live in. The peaks are not too high, the hills are not too many, the forest coverage is not bad, and there are one or two canyons. There are no flaws, the rain is sufficient, and the Tamsui River is also good, so a large number of the population and garrisons of the New Qin Empire have gathered here.

At the same time, the entire Avalan Peninsula has been cleaned up, and all non-Han people, the population of the New Qin Empire, or their allied tribes have been imprisoned in prison camps, distributed to various places on time and according to needs, and used according to the plan.

There are a total of [-] slaves and [-] captives held here. The [-] captives are British or Newfoundlanders who know technology and are willing to cooperate with the New Qin Empire. Those who are unwilling to cooperate have entered the slave camp. Rare, the two buns are struggling, maybe they will collapse in the next moment.

There are [-] Han soldiers and horses stationed here, two battalions of overseers, one battalion of mercenary cavalry, and one battalion of artillery.

There are also 200 Han people assigned to various ports, 1000 allied tribal populations, and mercenary foreigners. There are also people who are willing to become civilians from prisoner camps, mercenaries, and exile brigades. British and Newfoundlanders, Inuit people 3000 people.

People everywhere have settled down. The first year's work is of course building houses, allocating land, and allocating the things they should do. The first thing is food and farming.

The second thing is to reclaim some places around the houses to grow vegetables.

The first step in the civil affairs involved in the civil affairs of the Chinese Empire is to live and work in peace and contentment, and the second step is to eat and wear.

After these two matters have been settled, Luo Zuocai ordered all villages to transfer people to carry out militia training under the supervision of mercenaries. The militia training of the Huaxia Empire was brought by Zhang Qiang. The first thing is discipline.

Constantly issuing orders, rewarding those who obeyed, and punishing those who disobeyed, everyone was trained to obey orders like soldiers within a few months.

Various rules and regulations are drawn up, ringing the bell to gather manpower, ringing the bell to rest in the morning and evening, curfew, ringing the bell to get up in the morning, ringing the bell for joint training between the people and the militia, when the enemy comes, the people go to the mountains or other places to hide, escape and marching exercises , Six times in a few months, basically the people already know how to obey the arrangements of the militia, and the militia know how to stop the enemy, report, contact, and spread the news everywhere.

Cooperate with the stationed troops to formulate a counterattack strategy against the enemy, and finally carried out a large-scale exercise where the entire island cannot be defended and the entire island is evacuated under the enemy's artillery fire.

After a few months, the people who have gotten used to this kind of life will return to their homes, and then reduce some rehearsals, reduce some contact and disturbing things, and let the people return to a free life.

Some spontaneous commercial activities appeared on the island, exchanging vegetables or fish caught in their own homes for other living materials, and they got used to using the Huaxia Yuan currency of the Huaxia Empire to trade materials and commodities.

At this time, the forest and ore resources mined by slaves entered the lives of the common people. The common people could buy wine, food, vegetables, and trade iron and copper wares in the government-run shops of the New Qin Empire. The government-run shops also received some handicrafts. The furs produced, the prey hunted, not strategic materials or commodities traded outside, are all sold on the spot to other people in need.

At the end of the new year, according to re-statistics, in addition to the garrison, the Avalan Peninsula has more than 8000 people and created a tax revenue of [-] Chinese yuan. The county magistrate serves as the county magistrate on the Avalan Peninsula. Some of his staff and management team are served by various armies and some veterans wounded in previous battles. At the same time, he is allowed to recruit some young people and teachers from various schools to serve as subordinates. officials of various agencies.

Luo Zuo was the commander of the garrison, but soon Luo Zuo could no longer be the commander of the garrison. Soon he led four battalions to set off to support Tang Yaweng along the old road of Tang Yaweng, bringing enough manpower, weapons and ammunition, and He brought two battalions of fleet sailors and fighters, and escorted [-] slaves to support Tang Yaweng's operations and development.

Repair roads, build bridges when encountering water, open roads when encountering mountains, and use Gubisburg as a base to transport a steady stream of slaves, troops, and supplies to Tang Yaweng's rear military station. He then built more military stations, and the troops led by Tang Yaweng arrived They left Great Falls, Windsor and other towns on the British map, and joined Tang Yaweng here.

While Tang Yaweng stayed here, Luo Zuo led the troops of the joint army here to cross the river, go to the northeast along the river, and attack the villages and towns along the river. Three towns, and then crossed the river on both sides with Sweeping Thunder and returned to the south bank, attacking Junk St., and Sweeping Thunder was attacking the town of Green's Wood on the opposite bank.

After half a month of tug-of-war, the two captured the two towns together, and then drove the enemy to the peninsula. The two men's army then chased to the peninsula. Luo Zuo captured five ports, and Sweeping Thunder led troops to capture eight Port, wiped out all the enemies on the peninsula, annihilated 200 British troops, captured 600 people, 800 Inuit, and 1 Newfoundlanders.

Then the squadron sent two battalions of sailors, took away the wounded on both sides, and some British prisoners, and stayed behind to defend and deal with the aftermath.

Luo Zuo led two supplementary battalions of sailors back along the original road to meet Tang Yaweng, stayed for a week, waited for the supply of weapons and ammunition on land, and sent away nearly 2 prisoners. Tang Yaweng continued to stay in place to preside over the work, Luo Zuo Lead the army north.

He took with him four battalions of sailors, two battalions of cavalry, one battalion of artillery, [-] Indians, and [-] slaves.

Sweep the enemy towns along the river in the northwest. Most of them are Inuit and Indian tribes. The Indian tribes quickly surrendered, but the Inuit resisted very strongly. After a week of fighting, all local Indian tribes were wiped out. The Newt tribe, leaving no captives, accepted the surrender of thirty thousand Indians, and captured the entire population of the tribe of thirteen thousand Indians who refused to surrender.

Three hundred Indians, one hundred slaves, one company of cavalry, and one company of sailors were assigned to escort the captives back to Windsor Town and hand them over to Tang Yaweng.

Then continue to go north and capture the small town of Milligram along a river in the north.

At this time, Zhao Shuai, who had been replenished, had already led [-] Han troops, [-] Indian troops, [-] Iliad cavalry, a mercenary artillery battalion, and [-] slaves along the coast with the support of Zhuang Lin in the rear. Attacking north, only [-] kilometers away from him, the town of Pasadena.Two people only need to cross the river to meet and attack the enemy riverside town, Deer Lake.

Chapter 320 New profit growth point 1

Li Ya and Wu Kejing inspected the adjacent peninsula. With the increase of population, the food demand also increased. In many places, the food was still planted in the reclaimed farmland, and there was no harvest. It used to be enough to feed 3 people, but now it needs to feed In addition to the 1 Han Chinese, there were more than 9 and nearly [-] foreign mercenaries, as well as [-] captives and more than [-] slaves. The food consumption also increased sharply.

Although there are fish, prey in the forest, and some vegetables grown on the adjacent peninsula, as well as wild fruits in the forest, the wild vegetables can satisfy your hunger, but it is still not enough. The food fleet sent out also includes French businessmen who come to trade, Spanish merchants, and even merchants as far away as Turkey, had just enough food to feed so many people.

In the past, the excess food could be exported, but now it is purely imported, and fishery exports have also declined because most of them are used as food. The profits of flax and flax rope are far from enough to meet the trade profits of a country with so many people. consume.

The newly felled giant trees on the main island also quickly joined the trade. The slaves felled them and dragged them through rivers, lakes, and sea routes to the ports of the neighboring peninsula and Avalan peninsula for sale. However, this was not unique to the New Qin Empire. There are commodities, and there are many giant logs and timber in North America.

"My lord, our flax and hemp rope are only small profits, and they can't compete with the factories and workshops of the French and the British. They only come here to change some because of the problem of the route. It has been nothing more than a year. The income of one hundred thousand francs, and the giant trees in the mountains will eventually be mined one day, just like the giant trees in the neighboring peninsula, the French only came a dozen times before transporting them all away, and they only got nearly 300 million Chinese yuan Profit, how can we make local development next?"

Wu Kejing asked worriedly.

Li Ya twisted a piece of foxtail in his hand, and walked slowly, "It is obviously not possible to rely on selling slaves. Most of the slaves were bought by the French, and it was only a matter of 60 francs. Now we have 2 more slaves. , It is also a matter of 60 francs. These things are not enough for us to consume, so slaves cannot be sold. Every time we sell a captured ship, we have an income of 10,000+ pounds, but now they are basically sold to the French. We use the rest for ourselves, and the steam engine ship is good, but we don’t have the core manufacturing technology, and we can’t sell the rest, and we can’t build more, because there is no coal.”

Not only is there no coal, there is no pig iron. The small iron mines and small coal mines here produce less than [-] tons of coal, which is not enough for the French to use a large number of ships to sell to the New Qin Empire.

Li Ya is also full of worries these days. This island looks not small, but the products are not too rich.

There are plenty of trees and fish, but not many can be used.

Two people walked into a workshop, and the people in the workshop hurriedly got up to salute, and the two waved their hands depressedly.

"What kind of workshop is this?" Li Ya asked.

Wu Kejing said: "My lord, the keels of the carriages are made. We use the assembly line method of the Chinese Empire. One workshop makes the keels, that workshop makes the wheels, another place makes the carriages, another place makes the shafts, and another place makes the carriages. The spokes are then assembled by our own slave assembly factory, then dispatched by the county government, and sent to the army and civilians, so that they can pull supplies for the army, or for people to ride.

We are now starting to imitate the carriages of horse-drawn trains. Except for some iron bars, other things are made by these attached workshops. It is impossible for us to import more old carriages and locomotives from Turkey or Russia, so many things , we are all making our own.Now the carriage assembly plant has been transferred to a factory near the port of St. Johns.

The Proximity Peninsula is also the final assembly plant for freight wagons, and the Avalan Peninsula is the final assembly plant for the carriages of horse-drawn trains.Next, we will set up another final assembly plant in Great Falls, using the convenience of inland water transport to provide carriages for Zhuanglin and Jinlin, which are building roads, and manufacture and store horse-drawn trains that will be promoted across the island. More horse-drawn train carriages. "

Li Ya's heart moved, "Can it be sold? Just like the Huaxia Empire?"

Wu Kejing pondered for a moment, "That's right. Many craftsmen from the empire mentioned this matter before. Our carriages are also well-known in Europe. It's just that some time ago, due to the continuous war, we had no time to take care of them except for military use. That's it, now that the war is intermission, we can set up a carriage factory here, but the parts that need to be produced need to be refined, and many things even need to be more luxurious.

This requires some skilled workers, as well as paint, but we don’t have paint here, unless it is imported from Russia, from the Qing Dynasty, or the Chinese Empire, and European countries. If the carriages we make can enter Europe, then it will be another A sum of money.However, Europe also has European carriages. Unlike us, we have some European craftsmen here, but none of them are high-level craftsmen who can make luxury carriages. We need to import a batch from Europe. After all, we need to do business with Europeans. "

"That's it, I'll give you a month and a half to set up this factory, produce a batch as soon as possible, and then show it to the Spaniards and French who come, and let them go to Europe to test the water. If it is feasible, we are expanding the factory. Anyway, we have no shortage of slaves and captives. These people cannot be kept for nothing. Except for some slaves who need to work hard, everyone must invest in high value-added industries.

Temporarily buying paint from Europeans, we start this business first, and then import a batch of paint from the Chinese Empire, we develop paint by ourselves, and start the paint business. "

After finishing speaking, the two of them left the workshop and went to inspect other workshops. Today's Xinxianju Town, which is adjacent to the peninsula, is almost adjacent to the small town where the captives are held outside. Many places would have been blocked by Li Ya. I am afraid that they will build their houses and living places under the city wall, which will delay the defensive function of the city wall. I am afraid they have already built it under the city wall.

How should I put it, the center of the overpopulated New Qin Empire now has the size of a medium-sized small county town in the Huaxia Empire, with tens of thousands of people, and more small merchants and hawkers. The people of the Huaxia Empire are very good at doing business. , Small merchants and hawkers have sprung up from the bottom like mushrooms after rain, all over the country, ahem, it should be the neighboring peninsula, and the Avala peninsula has just been abandoned due to the land attack, so it is not as prosperous as the neighboring peninsula.

The adjacent peninsula has the largest number of workshops, industries, handicrafts, logging, quarrying, and fishing in the New Qin Empire, so it is already very prosperous now.

The first thousand and 320 chapters of the second empire's new profit growth point 2

The two of them finished watching the chariot and horse shop, and then entered a bamboo weaving shop. It wasn't like the New Qin Empire, which had just ended its war with other places, and then had a leisurely time playing with bamboo weaving. Bamboo baskets for food, pig iron, and coal needed by the army are all bamboo baskets. These bamboo weaves are not all bamboo. There are some bamboos in Newfoundland, but they are very few. Most of them are spruces, tall trees that grow in cold places. There are also some trees that grow in summer, and the branches of some trees with soft branches can be used for weaving. The Han people have had this skill for a long time.

These things can only be produced for their own use.
