Chapter 1083:South China Sea

Outward expansion, and long-term occupation of a place, the need for at least two conditions, one is the external attraction, the main is profitable, give people a better hope of life, the second is the internal thrust, in short, can not live, need to move a place.

The West is on a colonial path, with merchants and adventurers chasing interests, wanting trade, and mining gold and silver, as well as the domestic poor and criminals who cannot survive, resulting in a large outflow of people.

There is a force that pulls people out, and at the same time there is a force inside, pushing people out, and the colony has a steady stream of population replenishment, and the colonization will succeed.

These two conditions must appear at the same time, there are only businessmen and adventurers, people in the country are not willing to go out, there are not enough people, businessmen and adventurers naturally can not do, there is also no poor people who can not live, no businessmen and adventurers, poor people do not even have a boat, the same can not go out.

At this time, the situation of Dawei, but on the contrary, just after the end of the war, the domestic population is sparse, the production resources and land resources are rich, people as long as they are willing to work hard, life will not be bad, there is no thrust inside, the population is forced out.

The outside world, for the big Wei is not much attractive, for the people, the sky up to the country, itself is the first in the world, the standard of living is much higher than the countries, live in Dawei, live in Jiangnan is heaven, there are diseases to go to those barbarous places.

For commercial stocks, the world to buy Chinese goods, Dawei's business only need to open a workshop, do business, or buy land to collect rent, you can easily make money, no need to take a huge risk, little interest in external exploration.

The Dutch East India Company, running all over the world, born to die, suffering from storms, humid and heat, illness, and killing with the indigenous people, a year of income is not yet Zhengjiadu, the doorway can make money, not many people are willing to take risks.

The outside is unattractive, the interior has no thrust, the powerful don’t take risks, the poor want to take risks, there are no resources.

Previously, the West was the edge of the world, poor slag, and China has been rich for thousands of years, has been the center of thousands of years, China's own genes, as well as its own conditions, culture, and the West is completely different, the situation is completely different.

Gao Yi happy to see that people are not very supportive of their own ideas, some depressed in their hearts, it seems that this thing, want to rely on people spontaneous, it is estimated that it is unlikely, or need to be led by him, and invest resources to guide, but the specific what to do, Gao Yixiang is also not in the mood.

There are many powerful dynasties in China's history, and there are many times when they oppress the northern people, but they have never controlled the north, and there must be reasons.

~~~~~~

In December, the cold wind roared in the north, but the southern island was as warm as spring.

Gao Yihuan's expedition to the western region not only let the Haug on the Korean Peninsula, but also relieved the Zhou regime in the south and the Nanming regime, but also had a respite.

After the Battle of Liaodong, Haug was defeated and he could not be afraid all day after he retreated into North Korea.

The Qing army was blocked in North Korea by the Wei army, and the road was not open, surrounded by the sea on three sides, there was no way to escape, and it had fallen into death.

Originally, Haug received the news that the Wei army had gathered Liaodong, ready to attack North Korea, was eager to jump the sea, did not want the Ming Army to suddenly stop attacking, immediately let him loose, and began to plan the way out.

In the southwest, after Sun is expected to lose and rebound to Longcheng, the main force of the Zhou army has lost more than half, making Sun's regime extremely unstable, and even the rebellion of the people in the south has erupted.

If the Wei Army continues to attack, the Zhou regime will inevitably face serious challenges, but Wei Jun's acceptance and discussion give Sun hope to breathe time.

Nanming, because of the diversion of Wei Jun's attention, the tense atmosphere was reduced, and he gradually stood firm.

At this time, Wei Junshui Division was weak, the coastline was long, and the two governors and the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang Province took the position of not taking the initiative to provoke the overseas Chinese government, adopted a defensive strategy, and even closed their eyes to the smuggling trade between many squires and the Southern Ming Dynasty.

The coastline is long, the Wei army can not be guarded everywhere, the Ming army sailors maneuver, it is easy to find the weakness to raid one, if so, the Nanming forces will inevitably be more difficult than the genie.

Maritime trade was blocked, and Gao Yixiang thought of many ways to solve the sales of Jiangnan's goods, but the loss of Jiangnan squirrel Jia was still very large.

These people urgently need to restore trade channels, and some through relations, affect the Jiangnan people who are officials in the Dawei Dynasty, and some secretly collude with Nanming and do smuggling trade.

Although Gao Yihuan insisted on destroying Nanming, in Wei, in fact, there are many officials who have proposed peace with Nanming.

They think that they can't solve Nanming anyway, it is better to talk to peace, delay time, wait for the water master to practice, and then turn the face to war.

Among them, Ding Qirui, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang Province, is a representative figure, he presided over the military and political affairs of Fujian and Zhejiang, and directly faced the Zheng success of Xiamen and Taiwan, and the pressure can be said to be quite huge.

Although the Nanming forces have no opportunity to turn over than Dawei, but now the Wei Shui master has not succeeded, but it is not possible to do Nanming, and even can not beat Nanming.

The Zheng family has deep roots in Fujian, and Zheng successfully figured out coastal defenses and then chose an attack.

In this way, Ding Qirui is bound to be tired of coping, so after he went to Fujian, he analyzed the situation, did not adopt a confrontational policy, and the Nanming forces at sea have always maintained the strategy of defending Huairou, and even often exchanged letters with Zheng.

Although Ding Qirui did this without the permission of high-mindedness, falling into the eyes of some people, it is inevitable that there is suspicion of collusion with Nanming, but after he went to Fujian, the coast was indeed more peaceful.

Because the southeast coast is relatively stable, at this time Zheng successfully is no longer in Xiamen, but in Taiwan.

Since the expulsion of the Dutch, Zheng successfully regarded Taiwan as his own rear to operate, sending a large number of his family members to Taiwan.

Today, more than 300,000 people have landed around the Bay, including military families, people, and many craftsmen.

At this time, the island of Taiwan is not fully developed, the vast majority of the region, still in the original state, the south is mainly Han people gathered, the north is Han and familiar with the mixed settlement, there are some pirates and maritime merchants to establish the stockade, in the island, is the land, they have not been opened, rushed into the risk is very large, is likely to be cut the brain.

At this time, Zheng successfully operated in southern Taiwan, and in the past half a year, he has set up four or five counties in Taiwan, surrounded by all the bay, and there are newly built houses and reclamation land.

Taiwan's warm climate, no one to freeze, immigrants are also Min cantonese, Taiwan's climate and soil are not suitable, the people have been stable.

At this time, Zheng successfully led a group of people, standing at the edge of the dock, a few sea ships from far away, and the side of the side will immediately open their mouths: "The national name, your majesty has arrived!"
