Chapter 839 A great medal

The trial of the United Court completely negated the Spanish's legal rule in Luzon, and also declared the Ming Dynasty to become the new master of the land.

After the execution of the chief evil and a series of prisoners, the joint Spanish courts also made an announcement. Ordinary people can restore freedom, but it is not so easy for soldiers and some low-level officials.

The Ming Dynasty was not a fool. Could it be that he could easily let other Spanish people go after just trialing more than 100 people? Besides, there were nearly 100,000 Spanish soldiers captured. These people can be said to be the elite of Spanish overseas colonies and are also Spain's precious wealth.

Put them back? This is naturally absolutely impossible. So with the tacit consent of the United Court, all of these people became the spoils of the Ming Dynasty, which means that they would carry out "labor transformation" under the supervision of the Ming Dynasty to clear their sins in this way.

Regarding labor reform, the Ming Dynasty has now used it perfectly.

After all, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty's restoration, Zhu Yicheng used this method to solve the captured Qing army, including officials and the Eight Banners nobles. Moreover, the results were significant in recent years. After a series of labor reforms, many people have changed their minds and become people again. Among them, many of the Manchu nobles of the year even abandoned their old identities, completely separated from the past, and stood on the side of the Ming Dynasty.

Now, there will naturally be no problem with the Ming Dynasty in Luzon. However, Wang Dong has his own ideas about this labor reform. He wants to use these Spaniards to not only "reborn" through transformation, but also achieve his goals.

This purpose is to target the natives of Luzon. Taking Manila on the surface, the Ming Dynasty has occupied Luzon, but in fact, in the whole of Luzon, Manila is only a small part.

The Ming Dynasty was not a Spanish. The Spanish had been operating in Luzon for hundreds of years but only occupied a few important areas in Luzon. There was no change in the vast land and other areas in the mainland of Luzon at all. This was because Spain's population and colonial policies were reached, and of course there were other reasons.

But the Ming Dynasty was different. Just like the New Ming Dynasty, the essence of the Ming Dynasty's expansion overseas was different from the colonization of Western countries, because the Ming Dynasty truly managed the occupied areas as its own territory. Therefore, after taking over Luzon, the Ming Dynasty had to completely control Luzon. In order to control Luzon, in addition to immigrating from the local area, it was to deepen the inland Luzon and solve the natives in Luzon.

Immigration is not a problem. There are people in the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, compared with Xinming, Luzon is much closer to the Ming Dynasty. If you go from Taiwan to Luzon, the fastest flight is only a few days. Even if you go from Shanghai or Ningbo to Luzon, you can arrive in half a month.

As for how to immigrate, we can refer to the strategy of Xinming immigration. We can find a population willing to immigrate to Luzon in the mainland. What's more, as long as the imperial court immigrates land, gives seeds, and three-year duty-free policies, there will be no fewer people willing to come. Besides, Luzon is a good place. Farming rice here three or even four ripens a year, as long as we get diligent and get rich, it is easy to get rich. Besides, Wang Dong also plans to directly distribute women to single men who immigrate, which makes those poor people even more excited.

The woman who was given the gift was naturally the local natives, and Wang Dong had decided to attack the local natives. Now the natives around Manila have basically solved the problem, but there are still many natives in Luzon. These natives are extremely guilty and are even more unstable factors in the Ming Dynasty's rule over Luzon. If you want long-term stability, you must solve them all.

Of course, I wouldn't be polite to the men among the natives. As for women, they can stay for these purposes. In addition, China's assimilation of foreign races, the natives will disappear completely in Luzon in a short time.

Compared with the set implemented by the Ming Dynasty in the Xinming Dynasty, the set adopted by Luzon is much more cruel. Of course, this is due to the actions of these natives, but in fact the essence is the same, that is, in the future, both Xinming and Luzon will be the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and those who live here will also be the people of the Ming Dynasty.

As for how to solve these natives, Wang Dong had already made plans. The Spanish soldiers who were transformed by labor were the best tools. Letting them use this way of cleaning and capturing the natives to work to prove the results of their transformation, and at the same time solving the Luzon problem, this is simply a good way to kill two birds with one stone.

When Wang Dong wrote his thoughts into memorials and sent them back to Beijing, Zhu Yicheng couldn't help laughing after seeing them. It seemed that Wang Dong could really learn from them. This idea was indeed good, so he immediately signaled the Military Affairs Office to agree with Wang Dong's opinion.

As spring blooms, the weather gets hotter and the north finally has the breath of spring.

These days, Zhu Yicheng was in a good mood, not only because of a series of good news, but also because Wang Dong gave most of the wealth seized gold ship to the local area, which gave the Ming Dynasty a huge profit.

This incident really made Zhu Yicheng happy. This Spaniard is really a good person! It doesn’t count if he gave Luzon to the Ming Dynasty, but he was worried that the Ming Dynasty would not have enough money. He actually sent such a huge amount of wealth thousands of miles away. Where can there be such a good person in the world?

Zhu Yicheng even wondered if he had specially cast a medal with a large pot cover and sent someone to King Philip V of Spain to commend his contribution to the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time he was given a honorary title of good friend and old friend of the Ming Empire?

Perhaps, when Philip V received this gift, he might have been so angry that his blood vessels burst and died. Thinking of this, Zhu Yicheng laughed even more.

Taking over Luzon, the Ming Dynasty completely opened a gap in the South China Sea, and the next Ming Dynasty goal was Johor.

When the Luzon matters settled, Wang Dong's fleet would come out from Manila to take Johor.

The Ming Dynasty's fight against Johor is justified. You should know that Johor was originally a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. Now the king of Johor is the prime minister of the former king usurped the throne. In the name of the monarchy's siege of the rebellion of unjust officials to restore orthodoxy, it is natural for the Ming Dynasty to send troops. Besides, although the small Johor resisted Western countries for nearly a hundred years and had not been occupied by other countries, it was not difficult for the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty's influence in Johor is not comparable to that of Portugal, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and Spain. On the one hand, they cannot defeat Johor because of the fierce local resistance, and on the other hand, it is because Johor has many Chinese. These Chinese are very harder than Luzon's Chinese. With them helping Johor defend the city, they have been persisting until now.

As soon as the Daming Heavenly Soldiers came out, not to mention that Wang Dong, who had been through many battles, was no problem for Johor to return to the Ming Dynasty. After these two things were finished, the Daming only needed to throw the hard bone of Brunei to the British, and basically completed the layout of the South China Sea.
