On June 12, the 26th year of Chongzhen, Li Zhi walked on the south bank of Darling Harbor in Sydney, and carefully observed the land in this area.
The Huben army has already invaded Australia and occupied this continent, which is an area equivalent to China.
After receiving such a large piece of new land, Li Zhi specially took a boat to take a look. It was a bumpy journey and it took Li Zhi eighteen days to reach Sydney.
In fact, this is not the first time that Li Zhi has come to Sydney. Li Zhi before time travel has also been there. However, at that time, Li Zhi traveled to Australia as a tourist and was viewed condescendingly by white people as if they were residents of developed countries. Today, Li Zhi comes again
When I set foot on this land, I came to declare that this land belongs to the Han people from now on.
Of course, this port is not a penal colony for British criminals, and it is not called Sydney. This port is not called Darling Harbor. This land is still an uninhabited virgin land, waiting for Han colonists to come and name it.
It was winter in the southern hemisphere at this time, and Li Zhi was wearing a thin cotton coat—Sydney’s latitude is relatively low, and the temperature in winter is not low. The temperature is in the teens most of the time, so Li Zhi did not need to wear a down jacket.
.
Li Zhi was walking in the broad-leaved forest on the edge of the harbor, looking at the surrounding environment.
Li Laosi followed Li Zhi, feeling a little happy.
"Your Majesty, this place is good. The temperature is suitable for our people in Tianjin to live in. The temperature in Java, Borneo and New Guinea is too high, and this place has winter and summer. Although the seasons are reversed from Tianjin, at any rate
It keeps people from sweating all day long.”
Li Zhi smiled and said, "Are you too hot in Indochina?"
Li Laosi said: "It's really hot. It's hot during the day and even hotter at night. Those mosquitoes have turned into sperm and will stick to my body as soon as I step out of the mosquito net. I have to contribute at least one glass of blood to the mosquitoes every day."
"
"And malaria is prevalent in places with many mosquitoes. Our Tiger Army attaches great importance to hygiene in Indochina, but we still cannot avoid the spread of malaria. Dozens of people die from this disease every month, and non-combat losses are huge."
"But it looks really different here. My lord, look, those trees are similar to ours in Tianjin. They are clean. They are not covered with vines like the rainforest trees in Indochina. There are also much fewer venomous snakes here. This walk
It's been three miles and I haven't seen a snake yet."
Li Zhi walked to a protruding rock and carefully took a step out.
Outside the woods, the beautiful bay of Darling Harbor appeared in front of Li Zhi's eyes.
In the middle is the blue water, which sparkles under the sunlight and shines like sapphire. On both sides of the bay are hills tens of meters high, all of which are covered with dense green broad-leaved trees. The blue water and the green valley complement each other.
, looks like a painting.
Li Zhi smiled and said, "Li Laosi, you have a good sense. This place is really good."
Li Zhi smiled and asked: "Li Laosi, do you know how many people this continent can support?"
Li Laosi was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, our warships have just arrived here. The terrain and resources of the inland have not yet been explored. I don't know how many people this continent can support."
Li Zhi said: "This continent can support 100 million people. With our leading agricultural technology, I think even if all the people of the Ming Dynasty are moved here, this land can support it."
Li Laosi was stunned for a moment, and said sarcastically: "How can you feed so many people?"
Li Zhi nodded, grabbed a handful of soil from the ground, and looked at the soil quality carefully.
In fact, Australia is a very fertile land.
After the white British people of later generations occupied this land, they used violence to turn this virgin land into their own colony. However, the British had too many colonies in the world at that time, and Australia, which was half a world away from the British mainland, was the farthest among them.
As a result, very few British immigrants immigrated to Australia, and in the early days only criminals came.
Until World War II, Australia's population was only seven million.
The British occupied this fertile land, but had no population to develop and build it, and they were very fearful and uneasy. People in this country therefore doubled down on their guard against foreign immigrants, and were always worried that immigrants from other countries would rely on their numerical superiority to occupy Australia.
Australia has implemented the notorious "White Australia" policy in history. In history, it has launched many riots that oppressed and killed Chinese people, and drove boatloads of Chinese immigrants out of Australia.
In order to prove the legitimacy of a very small number of white people occupying such a vast land in Australia, the entire Australian society is desperately promoting the "barrenness" of Australian land. Under the propaganda of the Australian white media, Australia is basically a barren land and can only
It can just accommodate the local white population, but cannot support any more immigrants.
However, in fact, this is a naked lie. With Li Zhi's geographical knowledge, he can spot the lies of white Australians at a glance.
When Australia's population was less than 10 million, it desperately claimed that Australia's population had reached its limit. However, when its population approached 25 million, it still had a food self-sufficiency rate of nearly 300% and exported a large amount of food.
White people cannot stand the high temperatures in the north near the equator. Before Li Zhi crossed over, white Australians only lived in the cold areas in the south that were suitable for white people to live, leaving the vast land in the north empty. In later generations, Australia had extremely vast tropical forests in the north.
There is no man's land, and a large amount of shrub grassland has not been cultivated. Even so, Australia is still the world's largest exporter of meat products and dairy products.
The so-called desert areas that white Australians desperately promote only account for less than 40% of the total area of Australia, and most of them are desert grasslands or sandy lands covered with sandy vegetation, which are essentially different from the pure sand dunes in the interior of the Asian continent.
According to the level of agricultural production in future generations, Australia will have no pressure to feed 300 million people.
Even if we follow the agricultural standards of one town and six provinces in the 26th year of Chongzhen, if we build enough water conservancy facilities, make good use of guano and other resources, and cooperate with sufficient human resources, Li Zhi believes that Australia can feed 100 million people.
Now that this land has fallen into the hands of the Han people, Li Zhi will certainly not let this land be filled with no man's land like in later generations.
Li Zhi will immigrate to Australia on a large scale. Southern Han people can live in the hotter areas of northern Australia, and northern Han people can live in the cooler areas of southern Australia.
Li Zhi looked at Zheng Hui and Gao Ligong who were following behind, and said: "Go back to Tianjin and Shandong to recruit immigrants. Those immigrants who complained about Taiwan being too hot in the past are now blessed. They can go to a place where the climate is no different from Tianjin and Shandong."
