Chapter 69 Occupation of Vietnam
The Black Banner Army stationed in Vietnam maintained the basic order in Vietnam, and the local French immigrants returned one after another.Many of them pooled money to request the escort of the Qing Navy. After all, they had to pass through the terrifying Strait of Malacca to return to France.Pirates are rampant there, why not pay some protection fees and let the Qing Dynasty send a few warships to escort it.After all, money is a good thing, but you have to live to enjoy it.

In this way, Master Daqingshui made a lot of money in the back and forth.

The King of Vietnam also lived in Prince Chun's Mansion for a period of time, and now seeing that Vietnam is relatively stable, he wants to return to Vietnam.

In Prince Jin's mansion, Prince Jin is eating under the service of several servants.I saw the king of Vietnam walking towards me as if taking a stroll in the courtyard, and said leisurely: "The king of Xia Kingdom, Ruan Zhiming, has met His Royal Highness Prince Chun."

When Prince Chun saw that it was Ruan Zhiming, he tapped Ruan Zhiming with his chopsticks, and then tapped the stool opposite him and said, "Come, come, let's eat together, Your Majesty." Then he turned around and said to the servant behind him: " Give Wang Shang a pair of bowls and chopsticks."

"Oh, no trouble, no trouble. Gu has already used it, and Prince Chun is slow to use it. Gu is just here to say goodbye!" Ruan Zhiming shook his hand hastily.

Prince Chun rolled his eyes and took a sip of wine.Slowly said: "Your Majesty thinks that this king is not greeting you well?"

"Where, where, Prince Jin's warm hospitality. I will always remember it in my heart, but the war in Annan is just extinguished, and a lot of waste is waiting to be done. I hope the prince will remember my love for my homeland and let me return to Annan as soon as possible. I, Annan, wish to be a vassal of the Shang Kingdom from generation to generation." , pay tribute every year, and come to court every year.”

Prince Chun watched the Vietnamese king spitting and talking, and his anger couldn't be calmed down.Said: "Huh, my Qing Dynasty killed and injured more than tens of thousands for your Annan? Dozens of naval warships were sunk. You Vietnamese are still helping the French to beat us? Let you go back, you want to reorganize Will the army come to clean up with me?"

After hearing this, Ruan Zhiming fell to the ground in fright, his face was pale, his hands kept shaking, and his head shook like a rattle.Hastily explained: "My lord, don't get me wrong. I, Annan, have fought against France for more than ten years. It is obvious to all. Some rebels followed the French devils to do evil. There are some. I will definitely wipe them out when I go back. Moon."

Prince Chun picked up a piece of venison and put it in his mouth, chewing slowly.Youyou said: "It's so easy for you to be loyal to my Qing Dynasty, I think. Don't go back, you have no children under your knees, and your younger brothers are all staring at your throne. Someday there will be civil strife or something , I have to send troops from the Qing Dynasty to solve it for you. If it’s troublesome enough, you can just live here. For Annan’s mess, I, the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, will decide for you.”

Speaking of this, no matter how stupid Ruan Zhiming is, he probably understands what Prince Chun means.I really misjudged the person, Ruan Zhiming regretted it.The French want Annan as a colony, and they only want someone who obeys them.It is not enough to pull him off the throne, but now the Qing Dynasty has driven the French away.But they also put themselves in confinement together, which really led the wolf into the house.

"My lord, what do you mean by that? Although I, Annan, am small, it's not up to you, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, to make the decision?"

With a bang, Prince Chun slapped the table with his palm and spilled the wine in the glass all over the table.His eyes were like a bell, and he cursed angrily: "Presumptuous! What are you, you dare to slander my Great Qing Emperor? The throne of your ancestors was conferred by my Great Qing Emperor, why can't you be your master? Tell me You, I, Qing Dynasty, want to take back your land in Annan, you have to take it if you want, or you don’t want to. The king is polite to you now, you offer the land honestly, and I will guarantee your prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life. Otherwise The king will announce your death tomorrow, let your younger brother inherit the throne, and let him hand over the land. You can decide for yourself!" After speaking, he poured another glass of wine and drank it down.

Ruan Zhiming fell to the ground all of a sudden, thinking about those two soft-hearted brothers.I couldn't help but feel sad in my heart, yes, now Qing Guo wants to kill him like trampling an ant to death.Now that the Qing army has occupied the whole of Vietnam, whether he can send it to the land.Now Vietnam also has the final say of the Qing Dynasty, and it is useless to insist on not agreeing here, so it is better to agree.I have someone to rely on for the rest of my life, alas!

"My lord, calm down. Annan was originally a vassal of Shangguo. Now that Shangguo wants to go back, all he has to do is say a word. Gu, oh no no. I am willing to offer Annan's land!"

Prince Chun laughed loudly, helped Ruan Zhiming who had fallen to the ground and said, "Then hurry up and give the booklet to the emperor. Your Majesty Long En will give you some rewards."

Ruan Zhiming sat up in pain, with a painful expression on his face.

In the tenth year of Guangxu, on December 1884, 12, King Ruan Zhiming of Annan expressed his gratitude to the Qing Dynasty for helping him repel legal persons and wash away the hatred of the country and family.The above table presents the land of Annan.Although Guan Xuqing refused three times, King Annan insisted again and again.Guan Xuqing just agreed!

Vietnam has since been incorporated into the territory of the Qing Dynasty.

Vietnam had just been incorporated into the Qing Dynasty, and Guan Xuqing issued a series of policies one after another.With the Red River as the boundary, it is divided into Vietnam Province and Vietnam Province.Then the imperial court issued a big edict to encourage people to move to Vietnam, the two provinces of North Vietnam and the three provinces of Northeast China outside the Guan. Anyone who is willing to move to the two places can get ten acres of land. You must know that the per capita arable land at this time is less than two acres. mu alone.However, this is not enough to have a huge impact. Although the land is very important in the hearts of the Chinese people, it is difficult to leave the homeland after all, and the poor people who really lack land cannot afford travel expenses.

What really caused a sensation was the last sentence of the imperial edict. Anyone who dug gold and jade in the fields of the two places did not need to hand over to the government. Those who discovered gold mines outside the pass or jade mines in Annan had to be registered with the government before mining.

After the introduction of this series of policies, relying on the strong promotion of "Daqing Daily", it caused a huge wave in Guangxi, Yunnan, Guangdong, Guizhou, Sichuan, Shandong, Hebei, Henan and other places.

The above places are all poor places in the Qing Dynasty, especially the two provinces of Yun and Guizhou have to rely on the relief of the imperial court every year to barely survive, and it is already the favor of God if people do not starve to death.

People in Guangxi, Yunnan and other places closest to Vietnam now want to go to Vietnam to live a good life.

Suddenly, all kinds of rumors spread among the people.

"I heard no, Li Gouzi from Qiancun got rich."

"It's all about how rich he can be, a mangy dog."

"Didn't he pawn all his wife's dowry jewelry a while ago? He just collected enough money and went to Annan. I heard that he picked up jade that was almost the size of an egg and sold it in a pawnshop, insisting that it was his ancestral inheritance. I paid a few hundred taels and redeemed all his wife’s jewelry.”

"Jade as big as an egg, you lie to ghosts, I don't believe it."

"Believe it or not, haven't you heard old people say that jade is produced in the south? I sold my house and fields in the past two days, and I also went to Annan. Anyway, there are ten acres of land without jade, which is better than the fields in the village. too much."

"Is there still land to go to Annan?"

"I saw it with my own eyes when I came back from the county yesterday. There is an official sent there to read it. The emperor said that as long as they are willing to go, each person will be given ten acres of land."

"Brother, then you can take me there too. There is no one in my family, so I can leave if I say so."

"Okay, folks in the village, there can also be a caretaker on the road."

After that, the two provinces of Vietnam and Vietnam indeed became the granary of the Qing Dynasty.There are even folk songs: Liangyue cooked three times a year, and the [-] million people in the Qing Dynasty were enough!

Of course, this is all for later. Under the double temptation of interests and desires, a wave of immigration that lasted for decades and spread throughout the Qing Dynasty began.The five provinces of Heilongjiang, Jilin, Fengtian, Vietnam, and Vietnam will increase their population by 10,000+ or ​​even hundreds of thousands every year.
