Through the investigation, a group of Liwei were brutally killed!

It's better to use another relative to make an example to others.

At that time, he will talk about things with his father everywhere, and he will be an important minister who will fight against him.There are also important ministers who are completely obsessed with themselves and flatter them everywhere.One or two dismissed from office each, showing their selflessness and wise iron fist.

It turns out that this is the ruthlessness of the saint. Zhao Kuanghuan only realized this at this time, and he still has a longer way to go.

Picking up the lanterns, the flames were brighter, and Zhao Kuanghuan wrote the word "正" with a pen.

Chapter 1060 [Unification of Java]

In the autumn of the 26th year of the Republic of China, Pang Chunlai, the Duke of Liao, died of illness in Xiningbao, Yaoxian County, Liaoning.

Posthumously titled King of Liao, posthumously titled Wenzheng.

The title of King of Liao cannot be hereditary, and his descendants will be reduced by the title of Duke of Liao.

Emperor Zhao seemed to think of Li Banghua, and he named Li Banghua the King of Ji'an. The title of King of this county is still not hereditary.

Regarding Li Banghua's posthumous title, before Pang Chunlai died of illness, he could not give it casually.Because the officials of Jishui nationality are very powerful, Li Banghua's fellow countrymen are all over the court and the public, so there must be another king with a different surname to suppress him.

Another reason is that officials from other provinces have gradually shown their prominence.

Officials from these five provinces, Anhui, Guangdong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Sichuan, have been continuously promoted through the imperial examination, and more and more people are inside and outside the court.Coupled with the officials from Hunan and Hubei, the number has already surpassed that of Jiangxi officials.

Although Jiangxi officials still hold high positions in the cabinet, the ranks of cabinet doctors have been balanced, and the native places of local officials have also been balanced.

In the same year, Yuan Yunlong, Fei Ruhe's eldest brother-in-law, returned home due to illness in his position as a cabinet minister.There is one less cabinet minister from Jiangxi.

Zhang Bingwen, a cabinet minister from Anhui, had retired from illness for many years, and passed away this winter.At the age of 81, his posthumous title was Wenzhong.

In the 27th year of the Republic of China, Zuo Xiaoliang, a cabinet minister from Jiangxi Province, suddenly suffered from a serious illness and asked to be appointed as an official.Three requests and three resignations, Zhao Han agreed, and one was missing.

Liu Ziren, an old friend Zhao Han met in Hanzhu Academy, is white, fat, healthy, and sits firmly in the seat of chief assistant.

This shoufu lord has relatively mediocre talents.

No matter what happens, discuss it with the cabinet ministers first, and then submit it to the emperor after unifying the opinion.Whenever Zhao Han changed the proposals of the cabinet, no matter how outrageous the changes were, the chief assistant Liu Ziren would follow suit.

With such an uninitiated chief assistant, Zhao Han was very comfortable with it.

"Minister Zhang Xianzhong, pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor!"

In the Hall of Yingmin, Zhang Xianzhong saw the emperor again, this time with a completely different identity.

Zhao Han said happily: "Give me a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhang Xianzhong was much more well-behaved than before, and his attitude was correct.

This king is already 60 years old, and he served as the governor of Semarang after his extended period. He was not recalled to the court until he wiped out all the surrounding countries.

Zhang Xianzhong first sent troops to occupy the coastal plain of Pamaran, continuously absorbed Han immigrants, and took the initiative to draw a border with the Sultan of Cirebon, but suddenly attacked Cirebon two years later.Moreover, they still used tricks to send soldiers in advance to pretend to be merchants, and after entering the city, they should cooperate with the inside and outside to quickly take them down.

When the news broke, other sultans were shocked.

The Sultan of Burangan (Bandung), which is closest to Cirebon, gathered troops in a panic to prepare for war.Zhang Xianzhong also released the news that he wanted to destroy Brian'an, but he shot a feint and secretly led his troops back to attack the Yogyakarta Sultanate south of Semarang.

The Sultan of Yogyakarta was unprepared, and the country was ruined and died.

The rest of the sultans were terrified, and the Sultan of Surabaya even took the initiative to abdicate, supported the Han puppets to come to power, and asked Emperor Zhao to make Surabaya a governor-general, provided that the imperial court could not send officials and garrisons.

Under his son's suggestion, Zhang Xianzhong did not continue to fight, but developed steadily for several years, and killed a large number of Javanese nobles.Massacred nobles, burned books, destroyed temples, provoked rebellion, sent troops to suppress the rebellion, and continued to slaughter... After a few years, people who knew Javanese characters were killed by him, and believers could not even find temples to worship.

In Central Java alone, Zhang Xianzhong killed tens of thousands of people!

Even the Han people in Semarang were frightened by Zhang Xianzhong, and the local rich people converted to Buddhism one after another.

Last year, Zhang Xianzhong captured Surabaya, slaughtered all the non-Han nobles in the city, and completed the unification of Central Java and East Java.

Zhao Han smiled and asked kindly: "Which yamen do you want to work in? You can enter the Governor's Mansion and stay in Nanjing, or you can be transferred to other places to be the governor."

Zhang Xianzhong shook his head and said, "I'm 60 years old, I can't kill him anymore, but I can enjoy it too. Your Majesty, please let me go back to Taiwan and give me a county magistrate. I have never been a civil servant in my life."

Zhao Han flipped through the map of Taiwan and said: "In the coastal area south of the chicken coop, there is a large plain that emerges from the Lanyang River. The Taiwan prefect organized immigrants there and planned to educate the local aborigines. But these aborigines were extremely fierce and even killed them. Two officials and a few people who immigrated there."

Zhang Xianzhong said: "A few natives, just kill them."

Zhao Han said: "The prefect of Taiwan has sent troops to drive the local aborigines into the mountains. Now there are more and more immigrants there, and a large number of plains have been reclaimed as fertile fields, but they are often attacked by the aborigines in the mountains."

"Where does Your Majesty want me to be an official?" Zhang Xianzhong asked.

Zhao Han nodded and said: "There are nearly ten thousand immigrants there, and the imperial court plans to set up officials and counties. According to the name of the river, it is not appropriate to set it as Lanyang County. There is already Lanyang County beside the Yellow River. I decided to change it to Yilan County, you can To be the county magistrate of Yilan, to take down the aborigines around the county."

Zhang Xianzhong patted his chest and said, "It's on me, I have a lot of ways to deal with the natives of Taiwan."

The natives of Yilan County are the Kavalan people. The first group of Spanish colonists who landed, a total of 50 people, were killed by the Kavalan people.The Spanish governor was furious at that time, and sent troops and Luzon native soldiers to kill 12 Kavalan people and burn seven Kavalan villages.

But the Kavalan people are too fierce and know how to fight guerrillas. They often sneak into the mountains and wait for the opportunity to go down the mountain to attack the enemy.

Spain had no choice but to abandon its colonization here and go further north to Keelung to build a castle.

Historically, in the Qing Dynasty, Han people visited this place just to do business, and Xilihutu was killed by the Kavalan people.For the next 30 years, the Han immigrants fought on the frontier and even used muskets to repel the Kavalan people. These indigenous people were gradually assimilated into the Han people.

Moreover, it was actively seeking assimilation, and the tribal leaders gave up hunting and learned farming techniques from the Han people.Gradually, even using Chinese to communicate, the names imitate the customs of the Han people.

Zhang Xianzhong used to be the county magistrate, and he was always on guard against and suppressed. As long as the Kavalan people were hurt, these indigenous people would follow the example of the strong, and they would become no different from the Han people in a hundred years.

At noon, Zhang Xianzhong was left to eat, and had a working meal with the emperor in Yingmin Hall.

In the afternoon, leave the Forbidden City and go to the Ministry of Rites to receive the reward.

A horse, a waist knife, and a musket are all good things, not ordinary items, they can be regarded as family heirlooms, making Zhang Xianzhong grin with joy.

After Zhang Xianzhong left, (former) Prince Hayi of Wandan was received again.

"Minister Zhao Hongde pays homage to His Majesty!"

"Give a seat."

Just by listening to Prince Hayi's self-proclaimed name, one can know who he is now.

King Banten was an old tortoise who never died or even got sick.

Faced with the expansion of the Han people centering on Yecheng, King Wandan also pretended not to see it.It seems to have been lying down, but he still refuses to surrender to the country, and even secretly supports the tribal leaders to grab the territory with the Han people.

As the friction became more and more intense, Prince Hayi couldn't bear it anymore, and finally launched a rebellion, and as a leading party, he invited the Governor of Coconut City to send troops.

In this way, Wandan Kingdom was destroyed.

Prince Hayi of Banten made great contributions to the country and was named a Viscount. He can retain [-] acres of land, all royal property, and a [-]-year mining right of a volcanic sulfur mine.

This prince is very interesting. He sold thousands of acres of land to the Han people, threw the fixed property and the sulfur mine to the eldest son, took other wives, concubines, children and floating wealth, and moved his family to the city of Nanjing, which haunted his dreams.

Just a few days ago, Zhao Han rewarded this person with a piece of suburban land and asked him to build a luxury house with his own money.

Prince Hayi was very grateful, and asked the emperor to give him a surname.

Ever since, the whole family changed their surname to Zhao.

His unmarried youngest son also asked the matchmaker to find a candidate to make a marriage contract with the daughter of a small official.

Then, this guy stays away from home all day, obsessed with Goulan Washe.He even learned to be arty, and didn't know a few Chinese characters, so he actually went to a literary meeting and followed the literati to visit famous prostitutes on Xuanwu Lake.

Zhao Han asked, "Are you still used to living in Nanjing?"

Ha Yi... No, Zhao Hongde replied: "Nanjing is very good, much more comfortable than Wandan, and there are many places to play."

Zhao Han asked: "The last time you came to Nanjing for an audience, you couldn't speak Chinese, but now you speak it quite fluently."

Zhao Hongde replied: "I learned it in Java. I often went to Yecheng to play. I even hired a gentleman to teach me how to write Chinese characters. I am in Datong China, which is hundreds of times better than Javanese. Chinese sounds better than Javanese, and Chinese characters are better than Javanese characters." nice."

"Qing Zhen is a loyal minister!" Zhao Han laughed.

Zhao Hongde immediately followed with a smile, looking like Mr. An Le.

This guy dares to rebel and kill his father, of course he is not a fool.

In another time and space, the other sultans of Java did not end well.Only Zhao Hongde, who took the initiative to rebel against his father, brought down Banten and dedicated it to the Netherlands. Since then, he has become a kind of chieftain, and died happily all his life. His descendants even became Dutch nobles for more than 200 years.

It's almost the same now, he feels that Wandan will be wiped out sooner or later, it's better to take the initiative to kill it himself, and get benefits by donating to the country.

Isn't the benefit coming?

He was awarded the title of Viscount and kept the royal property, as well as land and mines.Wouldn't it be better to stay in Banten and live in fear if the family moved to Nanjing to enjoy the fortune with the wealth that they have searched for for many years?

Zhao Hongde's devotion to the country filled the last gap, and the Nanjing court officially unified Java Island.

Locally, there are still Javanese nobles entrenched, but the Han merchants and immigrants can use the power of the people to contend, and they don't even need the governor to bother too much.

There will only be one governorship of Java Island in the future.

The governor of Yecheng was cancelled, the governor of Semarang was cancelled, and a new governor of Java was established to control the entire island.

The Governor's Mansion is scheduled to be located in Yecheng (Jakarta), Banten, Semarang, Surabaya and other big cities, and "supervisors" are all set up for management.

In the whole of Java Island, spices, sucrose and so on are still secondary, and its main function is to act as a big granary!

Mainland China can continuously obtain rice from Java Island, which is used to curb the continuous rise of grain prices in coastal areas.

Perhaps decades later, through immigration and civilization, a Java province can be established!

Chapter 1061 [Stability in the Western Regions]

Zhang Xianzhong's official resume is very strange, from the village chief to the governor suddenly, and then from the governor to the county magistrate.

Officials in the Ministry of Officials were stunned and didn't know how to record it.

In fact, it's very simple. As far as Zhang Xianzhong's age and experience are concerned, no matter what he does, the emperor has the final say, and there are only a few years left in his official career.

Maybe Zhao Han also felt awkward, and made Zhang Xianzhong a baron to make up for the gap from the governor's downgrading to the county magistrate.

In Datong China, society is progressing, and Europe has not stopped.

In this year in France, there was the second recorded blood transfusion in humans.

The first time was two years ago when physiologist Lauwell gave a 13-year-old child a small amount of lamb blood.

Denis, the imperial physician of Louis XIV, heard the news and learned that the child was fine, so he also started his own journey of crime.Within a year, he gave blood transfusions to seven people, all of which were sheep blood and cow blood.

Of the seven victims, three survived and four died.

One of the family members of the deceased took Dennis to court.Subsequent investigations proved that the cause of death of the deceased was actually arsenic poisoning, because he also consulted other doctors.And that doctor prescribed arsenic in the medicine...

But things got worse, because the deceased was an aristocrat, and France and Britain banned blood transfusions one after another.

China is also conducting blood transfusion experiments.

The cause is the same as in Europe, because I read the blood circulation papers of the British doctor Harvey.

A folk doctor of the Ziyang sect transfused the blood of one dog into another dog, and both dogs lived well.Then continue the experiment, buy ten dogs, and cross them for blood transfusion.

A month later, six of the ten unlucky dogs died one after another.

The doctor immediately wrote a paper and submitted it to the Medical Museum of Qintian University, which quickly caused a sensation after it was published.

There was a lot of scolding!

The curator of the medical museum issued an industry ban on this, forbidding the use of living people for blood transfusion experiments.Because everyone knows that the doctors of the Ziyang School are a group of lunatics, who dare to use dogs to conduct experiments today, and dare to start with living people tomorrow.

The prohibition is meant to be violated. In the future, there will definitely be doctors who will secretly infuse blood into living people.

……

In the 27th year of the Republic of China, there was no major event.

In 28, the Datong Army recovered the Yinli River Valley.Galdan, who had unified northern Xinjiang, was furious about this and took the initiative to attack Luntai City that autumn.

Luntai, namely Urumqi, was changed by Zhao Han himself.

The main force of the Western Expedition led by Jiang Liang has been divided into five parts.Some were stationed in Dawan, some returned to Shaanxi and Gansu, some were stationed in Xinjiang, some returned to Qinghai, and some had just recovered Yinli.Therefore, in the face of Galdan's attack, the Datong Army could only defend Luntai City alone.

Unable to attack for a long time, Galdan chose to go around the city, cross the pass of Tianshan Mountain, and go to the Turpan area to plunder.

The Han immigrants had already received news that those who could enter the city entered the city, and those who were far away from the city all hid in simple earthen castles.

The civilians of all ethnic groups suffered, most of them were freed serfs, and their lives improved after a while, but they were plundered by Galdan again.All the newly harvested grain was taken away, all the livestock raised were also taken away, and even many people were taken away.

For such behavior, Jiang Liang was furious, and the people of all ethnic groups shared the same hatred.

In 29 years, when the snow melted in spring, Jiang Liang launched a counterattack.

When recruiting civilian husbands, people of all ethnic groups enthusiastically signed up.One is to be a civilian husband for the Datong Army, and they can receive rations to overcome the food shortage crisis; the other is that they really hate Galdan and really want to fight for the Datong Army.

Jiang Liang led 5000 cavalry, 6000 infantry, and more than [-] Han people and civilians of various ethnic groups. They first assembled in Luntai and then went straight to the royal court of Galdan, Boxeri (Boxer County).
