Zhenghe Port located at the mouth of the Ganges River.

This port was originally named Hugli Port.

In the 16th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, it was occupied by Portugal.

But like Goa, it is now owned by the Ming Dynasty.

In order to commemorate Zheng He, the navigator, and to make people realize from the place names that this land belongs to the Ming Dynasty, it was related to the discovery of Zheng He of the Ming Dynasty. In addition, it was also to encourage the current Ming navigators to open up territories for the empire. Therefore, when Zhu Youxiao named the places with a higher degree of sinicization overseas, he directly named them with outstanding figures without using the translation of the local accent, so as not to know the original history of the land from these names in the future.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the entire eastern part of the Ganges, which had become a settlement of Han people at this time, was also established as Zhenghe Province by Zhu Youxiao.

As for the Ming Dynasty's occupation of Porto Khaugli Port was inevitable. With the Ming Dynasty's expansion, Western maritime overlords such as Portugal, Spain, and the Netherlands had to give way to the Ming Dynasty.

Today, Zhenghe Port is very busy.

All Chinese and foreign ships coming to the Indian Peninsula gather here.

Because this place is owned by the Ming Dynasty, the Portuguese buildings here have been demolished, the church ruins were converted into Confucius Temple and Confucian school, and the hospital ruins became Ming-style clinics that combine surgery and internal medicine. Then, because the first Daming prefect here was from Suzhou, the ruins of the city hall were also turned into Su-style gardens.

The welfare home has become a health home.

Iron factories, wood factories, textile factories, charcoal factories, spice processing factories, paper factories, soap factories, glass factories, shipyards and other factories have been added, which are densely spread around the port.

In addition, with the large number of Han people from Fujian and Guangdong migrating, and with Shaanxi and Shanxi refugees led by the Ming Dynasty, large-scale immigration to South Asia to offset the damage of natural disasters and alleviate sharp land conflicts. Therefore, the population here is also very dense, and the proportion of Han people is very high.

This makes this place the third largest economic center in the entire Indian Peninsula except Goa and Dhaka.

When the Alliance troops arrived here, officials from North Korea and Japan couldn't help but sigh that neither Seoul nor Edo, the most prosperous country, had so many factories.

In short, they gave them the impression that advanced productivity actually appeared on the backward Indian Peninsula.

However, since Zhu Youxiao, the Ming Emperor, invested in the establishment of the Ming Family Development Company and actively colonized all over the world, the first colonized area of ​​the Bay of Bengal has not only developed industries, but also developed agriculture.

Because the Ming people who moved here brought a large number of advanced agricultural farming technologies.

Agriculture also concerns technical content.

Farmers of different levels grow the same food on the same land, with the same basic climate and different results.

For example, farming work like rice transplanting has many technical details.

In terms of farming technology, the Han people who have developed agricultural civilization for thousands of years are naturally the most capable of fighting in this era.

Historically, the Han people who had achieved a bumper harvest could naturally reclaim better fertile fields on the Ganges plain on the Indian Peninsula.

There have been three major economic changes in Chinese history.

The first time was the ancestors who lived by hunting and gathering. Due to shortage of food resources, they walked out of the mountains and came to the plains of the river valleys, and settled down through the development of planting and water control, thus creating civilization.

The second time was that the economic center was difficult to shift. As the land in the north gradually deteriorated due to excessive agricultural reclamation and war, a large number of northern people began to move south until the Southern Song Dynasty completed the transfer, which made a large number of hills and plains in the south be reclaimed and gradually became the main source of dynasty taxes.

The third time was in the Ming and Qing dynasties. The most suitable agricultural areas in the south were close to the critical point. Many farmers had no land to plant, so many refugees were produced. These refugees often even appeared on a large scale. For example, during the Chenghua period, hundreds of thousands of refugees appeared in Jingxiang area. If they were not properly handled, they could almost lead to a large-scale peasant uprising in Shaanxi in the late Ming Dynasty. In order to reclaim wasteland, these refugees had to go up the mountains and seas. The so-called uphill was to reclaim terraces from mountainous areas that were not suitable for agricultural planting. Therefore, many Hakkas from Fujian and Guangdong poured into the southern Gan Mountain Area on a large scale, and went into the sea to fill lakes and fields, build fields on the beach, and even cross the ocean to reclaim wasteland in Southeast Asia, which triggered many indigenous Chinese slaughter incidents during this period.

Now, the Ming Dynasty ruled by Zhu Youxiao is in this period.

However, because the Ming Dynasty court led by him led the large-scale migration of refugees to Southeast Asia and South Asia, the current large-scale migration of Han people mainly went to sea to Nagasaki, Southeast Asia, and South Asia.

Therefore, today's land along the Bay of Bengal has become a settlement for the Han people of the Ming Dynasty. Some are Shaanxi, Shanxi and Fujian, Guangdong and Zhejiang who have been moved to their own.

This is why there are rice flowers everywhere in this area. When you see Chinese language in every village, you can even see the ancestral halls where Han people worship their ancestors and Mazu Temple.

However, like in China, although everyone has the same writing, because the population and hometowns of the migrants are different, the sounds of each village are different, and each village has one dialect.

Of course, there are also large-scale armed fights due to water competition.

But it is also beneficial to the court, and the court also deliberately did it, because the Han people in different regions checked and balanced each other, giving the officials sent here the opportunity to divide them, and preventing them from forming an independent Han regime.

It also allows the government to collect taxed grain.

This area has become a large granary of the Ming Dynasty, and it is even more popular in India.

Putting aside the private transactions, there are a lot of official grains alone, and the official ships transporting grain in Hugli Port have never stopped.

These official grains are now the source of logistics grains for the Ming Dynasty's rule of the northwest and northeast.

The court did not suppress the grain burden of the Western Expedition and the expansion of the border in the northeast on the people of China, but transferred it to these agricultural areas that were reclaimed from the outside.

After all, the local Ming Dynasty now has poor climate and constant disasters, and often it needs to be fed back.

However, for the current Ming Dynasty, natural disasters occur much better than in the Chongzhen period in history.

Because the national treasury is abundant and there is no war, the imperial court has enough financial and manpower to build water conservancy and increase public health projects. In addition, a large number of landless people migrated to colonial areas in Southeast Asia and South Asia, so that these people did not have to go to Nangan, southern Shaanxi, Jingxiang, Kuidong, Yunnan and Guizhou to deforestate and build land, fill lakes and build fields, and the damage to nature has also decreased and the ecological environment has been protected. Therefore, in the 18th year of the Apocalypse and the 11th year of Chongzhen in history, Zhu Youxiao discovered that natural disasters occurring everywhere were much smaller in intensity and frequency.

Let's turn the words back.

When Zhang Tongchang, the commander of the Alliance Army, arrived at Zhenghe Port and saw the white walls and black tiles scattered among the fields and the Han people wearing Ming-style Hanfu, he had the illusion that he had not left Middle Earth.
