Chapter 284 Taiping Jin Kingdom

If the White Eagle Federation doesn't care much about the aborigines taking advantage of the situation, after all, they understand that the aborigines cannot make a difference, and the news that the Tang people in Shangjinzhou have launched a rebellion only made the entire northern federal government angry, then what happened next

The news successfully cast a shadow on the morale of the Union in the north, and many people were pessimistic about the war with the South.

The third news was that a group of Tang troops raided Luo City, the core of Lower Jinzhou. The Lower Jinzhou area, which had a total population of nearly 100,000, was quickly captured. More than 30,000 federal citizens were controlled, and four more

Except for those who were unwilling to accept management and were deported, most of the gold diggers from various countries, mainly Mexicans, continued to live their old gold mining lives.

Then this Tang army announced the establishment of the Taiping Jin Kingdom, and its leader named himself King of Jin.

The reason why the country was named Jin was because the ancestors of the Xie family were from a wealthy family that was mainly dedicated to the Jin country. It was barely acceptable to inherit the name of the Jin Dynasty. In addition, Taiping did not forget their origins, but it was difficult to call them directly.

In the Kingdom of Heaven, after all, Xie Hongyuan was originally just a commander-in-chief with the false title of Marquis, and was not a clan or prince in the Kingdom of Heaven.

As a participant behind the scenes, Xie Zihao's initial plan was to first gather the power of the Tang people together, support a leader, and then form a force to join the aboriginal camp headed by the Sioux and provide them with advanced culture.

, farming and weapon making knowledge.

After all, the number of Tang people is currently limited. In the battle with the White Eagle Federation, the more populous aborigines still need to be in front to attract firepower. Moreover, the Tang people do not contribute at all. Not to mention food and supplies, the supply of weapons alone is

This is a big help for the Aboriginal people.

The people of the Tang Dynasty may not be able to make the most advanced rotating firearms and cannons, but they can still make flintlock guns. After all, as early as the Ming Dynasty, craftsmen could forge and make them by hand.

And with the various tools and weapons that Xie Zihao has developed that are relatively advanced in this era, after he leaves, he will surely be able to achieve sustainable development and innovation, so it shouldn't be a problem to hold on to a territory in North America.

As for the territory of the Tang people, Xie Zihao chose Saramento from the beginning, which is the capital of the Golden State.

But when it comes to being the state capital, locals prefer to call it the original name of Sutter's Camp, as relatives prefer to call it. In fact, it is just a grass-roots team built by a group of people who came to the west, just like a group of people who broke into the Guandong and built their own towns on the northeastern land.

Same.

Saramento was not officially incorporated as a city until 1863.

In other words, this is the best chance to capture this place. As long as there are 5,000 people, we are 90% sure of capturing Saramento. With 10,000 people, he thinks we can hold this camp and assumes it to be a real

of towns.

But in the northern part of the Golden State in San Francisco and Saramento, at least now there are more than 30,000 Tang gold diggers, and there are also more than 10,000 Taiping troops from South America hiding in the north of San Francisco, waiting for food.

The leader of the Tang miners.

There are gold mines, resources, and large tracts of land in the northern part of Jinzhou, which is enough for the Tang people to take root and live here. There are also ports near the coast that can continuously import Tang immigrants. As long as there are enough people, the vast western area of ​​North America is now populated.

In rare circumstances, it is probably not a dream to build a Tang country on the west coast.

Therefore, the raids on San Francisco and Saramento were very smooth. With Hongmen, a local snake, as the internal coordinator, many extraordinary masters as the attackers, and more than 4,000 veterans of the Taiping Army as the main force, the combination of right and wrong, in an upright and upright manner

The force instantly overwhelmed the Jinzhou State Council, which had no regular troops at all, and took over the upper Jinzhou area in half a day.

On the contrary, the subsequent offensive to capture Los Angeles City will be more troublesome, because Los Angeles City, as the largest city in the West now and in the future, has a total population of nearly 100,000 people. In addition to about 30,000 federal registered citizens, there are four

There are 50,000 floating population and various illegal households. Although more than 10,000 of them belong to the Tang Dynasty, the number of other ethnic groups is even greater.

Fortunately, a large part of the federal and floating population are gold diggers from the south, or originally from Modu. As the White Eagle Federation occupied the Golden State, these people did not leave, so

These people are quite hostile to the White Eagle Federation.

In fact, until later generations, Jinzhou would still preach a few words about independence from time to time. Now it is only a little over ten years ago that it was forced to merge with Baiying. Especially the lower Jinzhou in the south is the area with the strongest resistance to the White Eagle Federation. Therefore,

After the Taiping Army captured major cities, many people gave up resistance and waited to see what the White Eagle federal government would do.

At this glance, it is found that Jinzhou and even the entire western region seem to be getting further and further away from the White Eagle Federation. One month, half a year, one year, two years, the rule of the Tang Dynasty has become more and more stable, and it is difficult to regain it in one's lifetime.

.

This was not the first time that the Taiping Army had dealt with foreigners, so it implemented a combination of leniency and strictness in Jinzhou. On the one hand, it welcomed gold prospectors to enter the country to prospect for gold, and stationed troops in various large and small gold mining areas within the territory to collect taxes and maintain maintenance.

Public security, opening pubs, restaurants and other logistical supply facilities; on the other hand, establishing rules that all gold diggers must pay a five percent tax.

The advantage of this is that the Taiping Jin Kingdom can not only provide later protection, but also ensure their legal income, at least they will not be robbed in public.

This has been supported by the majority of gold diggers. This is much better than the previous cunning approach of the Golden State Assembly that wanted benefits but did not maintain order. The gold diggers, especially the ordinary gold diggers who are the largest among them, are much better.

Everyone feels that the safety is greatly improved.

Xie Hongyuan and his team do not yet have the decadent routines of the traditional and old civil servants in China, nor the greed and ignorance of cunning petty officials. They know very well that as long as they give the gold diggers enough benefits, they can make them settle down. Of course they are powerful.

The force of force is still indispensable.

As for gold mines, they are not that important to a country.

What's more, the shops, pubs and other service industries opened by the government mainly accept gold and gold and silver coins from various countries. Coupled with a 5% gold tax, it can also ensure that at least 50% of the gold mined every year returns to the government.

, increasing the gold and silver reserves of the Taiping Jin Kingdom.

So why should the government come forward to occupy the gold mines and mine them themselves, and then arouse the dissatisfaction and hostility of tens of thousands of gold diggers, adding enemies and troubles to itself out of thin air?

This is the benefit of the military government. It can centralize power, decrees can be finalized, and there are fewer voices of opposition. Of course, you can also call it dictatorship, but I have to say that this kind of governance model is very useful and effective.

Efficient.

As for the separation of civil and military affairs, the Taiping Jin Kingdom is also slowly proceeding, but it may not be so thorough in the first ten years of the founding of the People's Republic of China. After all, this country still has to face many external threats.

It is estimated that it will take at least twenty years for a new generation to grow up and the power of civil servants to gradually increase.

During this process, Xie Zihao also made a lot of suggestions based on the perspective of later generations, and most of them were adopted. After all, as an outsider, Xie Zihao had no interests of his own in the Taiping Jin Kingdom, and he would not take sides. What he said was relatively pertinent and everyone understood it.

Recognition.

This is also the vast area that the Taiping Jin Kingdom developed into several pieces of land in the three states surrounding Jinzhou in just two years. After Hongmen revoked the title of Dongning and integrated into the Taiping Jin Kingdom, the population has reached nearly three

One hundred thousand, more than 80% of whom are immigrants from the Tang Dynasty.

Yes, it is powerful, because this country with a population of nearly 300,000 and a total of 50,000 troops is considered a big force in the entire New World, especially in the sparsely populated western part of North America, the combat effectiveness that the Taiping Army can bring

Definitely the strongest side.
