Is it cool to transmigrate to South America? Zhu Xianhai's answer is: it's very cool.
After all, 19th-century South America is still a place where cowards vie for hegemony, a land ful...
Chapter 282 South American Integration (Second update, please subscribe)
The battles that took place in the mountains and forests did not even appear in the newspapers - even in Shanxi, there were no reports about "guerrillas" or "resistance forces" at all.
Without reporting, there is no resistance.
This is actually a psychological game.
"Everyone has a herd mentality. If no one sees the news of resistance, then those who are half-hearted will give up resistance - and the vast majority of people are half-hearted!"
In Nanhua's office, after taking a look at the results of the "appeasement operation" in the secret telegram, Zhu Xianhai spoke to Charlotte in a very calm tone.
"What we need to do is to tell those people that this is a peaceful and prosperous time. If there is no resistance, you don't need to make fearless sacrifices. Just learn to protect yourself."
What is the highest level of public security warfare?
It’s never about telling others how much you have achieved, but about telling the world that “resistance has disappeared.”
"Well, it is human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm. Many nobles in Taiyuan now let their children learn Chinese, which should also be in preparation for future mergers."
Charlotte said with a smile.
Occupation is never just about massacre. Killing is just a tool. The purpose is to rule, to conquer. In order to conquer the other side, political winning over is inevitable. As queen, Charlotte does not mind winning support from the upper class by conferring some noble titles.
"Many people wrote to me, hoping to have official tutors to teach their children Chinese. My dear, many nobles have married their daughters to military officers. If those officers had titles, perhaps more people would be willing to marry them. Isn't this the national integration you want?"
I have to say that Charlotte knew Zhu Xianhai very well, and she was right. The integration in Zhu Xianhai's mind was that the Chinese people integrated the white people and Indians here, just like the white people melted the Indians.
"It's not what I want, but it's an economic necessity. In any region, the economically dominant party will integrate the other party, just like in the past when white people occupied land resources. Compared to marrying men of their own race, Indian women are more willing to marry white people who are economically dominant because white people own land and wealth. If we don't intervene, in fifty years at most, the mixed-race people in Chile will become the mainstream of the whole society, and the indigenous people will gradually become a minority or even disappear. Now the situation has only changed slightly."
Lying lazily in the chair, looking at Charlotte, she was sitting on the sofa looking at her son. Her one-year-old son was standing on the carpet, fiddling with the globe.
"But now you have implemented land reform and distributed land to the Indians. Will this affect your plan?"
As the Queen of Chile, Charlotte never interferes in government affairs. As smart as she is, she naturally knows what her role is - a tool!
Since she was the tool for the Chileans to surrender, she was also the tool for Zhu Xianhai to rule Chile. Of course, this did not mean that she had no reward - her son would be the only heir to the empire.
Elizabeth, the Bellucci sisters, and Maria were all just lovers, and their children were... Oh, by the way, according to Chinese customs, they were concubines, and their children were not illegitimate. Of course, this was no big deal.
What’s important is that her son Zhu Zhenwu is the heir to the empire!
He is the future emperor of the empire!
"I said before that the land change is just a gimmick. The important thing is to combat the influence of the church and hostile forces. Of course, in this process, the soldiers also obtained a lot of land. Well, our people have infiltrated various places. Now we have 100,000 troops stationed in Chile. After retiring, the soldiers will be directly assigned to veterans' farms and factories. The income of both farm workers and factory workers is much higher than that of the locals. They still have an absolute economic advantage over the indigenous people, so..."
Zhu Xianhai shrugged his shoulders and smiled.
"In the past two years, more than 50,000 soldiers have retired and settled in Shanxi. They have all married local wives. If this policy continues for a few years, our population will definitely exceed the number of European immigrants. With the support of Indians, Chile's population structure will change fundamentally in ten years. By then, Chile will be our Shanxi!"
What is the current situation in Chile? Among the 1.8 million population, there are more than 850,000 indigenous people, about 500,000 mixed-race people, and 200,000 white people. There are only 120,000 Chinese immigrants, and there are 100,000 garrisons. According to Zhu Xianhai's plan, in ten years, the number of Chinese immigrants and their descendants will exceed 1 million. By then, Chile will be the Shanxi of South China! As for now, it is just the "Shanxi region" on the military map.
People are the foundation of conquest. Without people, everything is empty talk.
"But, my queen, by then, your kingdom may become a thing of the past..."
Zhu Xianhai looked at Charlotte and teased.
"No,"
Charlotte walked to her son, stroked his head, looked at Zhu Xianhai and smiled.
"My Majesty, by then, your crown will have the emblems of the Kingdom of Chile, the Kingdom of Argentina, and the Kingdom of Peru, and our children will inherit these titles from me, titles..."
Charlotte stood up and walked to Zhu Xianhai.
"It will never disappear, just like the Tsar of the Russian Empire. He has dozens of titles on his crown, but in the end, he is the Tsar of all Russians. Who will remember his titles? Who will remember what happened behind those titles? My Majesty..."
Walking to his side, Charlotte looked at Zhu Xianhai with her beautiful eyes and said.
"One day, you will have the support of all the nobles in the kingdom, and as your wife, I may lose those titles, but I will become the Empress of the Empire, Your Majesty."
She smiled slightly.
"I am just a little woman. I have never coveted the title of queen. What I want is a greater goal - the wife of the emperor and the mother of the crown prince."
Charlotte is a very smart and ambitious woman, but also an extremely simple woman. She knows very well what she wants, which is why Zhu Xianhai chose her as his wife.
"Dear, believe me, one day your goal will come true!"
Looking at the little woman in front of him, Zhu Xianhai smiled.
"You will surely be the Emperor's wife and the Crown Prince's mother."
