Chapter 937: 44 Provinces
After defeating the Tsarist Russian army, the Chinese army's western expedition turned directly into a road construction project.
Except for fighting a decent battle with Tsarist Russia, the rest of the time they were supervising the captives to build roads.
In this way, they fought all the way to Novosibirsk.
Controlling the area around Novosibirsk is equivalent to taking Central Siberia into its pocket, and Dahua's territorial area has increased by more than five million square kilometers.
At the same time, the Australian mainland has also been systematically judged to be the territory of Dahua, because Dahua has established strongholds in places along the coast that are suitable for inhabitation, and declared its occupation of the area.
Even, an advance team was sent into the interior of the Australian mainland.
Perhaps it is because there is no possibility of a civilized regime in mainland Australia. When Dahua occupied the habitable places along the coast, Wu Changqing's system had already judged Dahua's occupation of the area.
So far, Dahua's territory has reached 34 million square kilometers, which is larger than the empire on which the sun never sets in the original time and space.
The territory mainly includes Siberia, Mongolia, China, Southeast Asia, Indonesia, Australia and so on.
Only Europe, West Asia, South Asia, Africa, America and Antarctica remained unrecovered.
There are only three places in Europe, West Asia and South Asia that are really worthy of attention. As for the lack of decent civilization in other places, it can be recovered easily.
Wu Changqing inspected Wuhu in October, preparing to return to Nanjing, and he also noticed changes in the territory.
The territory of more than 30 million square kilometers is too big, and he needs to sort it out and reset the administrative area.
After some research, according to the current actual situation, Wu Changqing finally determined the plan.
The territory of more than 34 million square kilometers was divided into 44 provinces and three municipalities directly under the Central Government by him.
Among them, Nanjing, Shanghai and Chongqing are the three municipalities directly under the central government of Dahua, which are directly managed by the central government and have the same administrative level as the province.
The rest of Huaxia was divided into 23 provinces, basically the same as later generations, except that the three eastern provinces were merged into one province.
Ningxia was incorporated into Inner Mongolia, Hainan was incorporated into Guangdong, and Baodao was also under the jurisdiction of Fujian.
The jurisdictions of the five autonomous regions are basically unchanged, but there is no name for the autonomous region, and they are still provinces.
Outer Mongolia became the 24th province of Dahua, referred to as Outer Mongolia.
The status of Siberia is divided into two provinces, and North Korea is also divided into two provinces, Pyongyang Province and Seoul Province, basically bounded by the 38th parallel.
Fuso is divided into four, Kyushu, Changzhou, Kyoto, and Beishu.
Bangladesh is the 33rd provincial jurisdiction of Dahua, including the later Bengal and the enclave of India.
The Southeast Asian peninsula is divided into six provinces, Myanmar, Siam, Laos, Khmer, Hanoi, and Saigon.
The Clawed Frog Islands are divided into three provinces, Jakarta, Borneo and Eastern Clawed Frog (Papua).
The Philippines is the 43rd province, and the Australian mainland is the 44th province of Dahua.
These must be compiled into Dahua's geography textbooks, and the entrance examinations for high school entrance examinations, college entrance examinations, and civil service examinations are all assessed at different levels to test students' mastery.
After all, as an elite intellectual of Dahua, or even a future official, he doesn't even know how much Dahua's territory is.
These are still the most basic. In the future, the mineral resources, topography, climate and environment, human history, institutional changes, and economic development of these places will have to be memorized.
Among the 47 provincial-level jurisdictions, the top three are Australia (about 7 million square kilometers), Novosibirsk (about 5.5 million square kilometers), and East Siberia (about 4 million square kilometers).
Wu Changqing's division of these administrative regions is mainly based on population and economy, and the size of the area is a secondary factor.
Jiangsu Province (about 15 million) has the top three populations, accounting for about 7% of the country. Guangdong Province (about 12 million), Kyoto Province (about 11 million).
The top three economic aggregates are Guangdong, Nanjing, and Shanghai.
…
At the end of October, when Wu Changqing returned to Nanjing, the people of Nanjing held a grand welcoming ceremony at the railway station.
During Wu Changqing's tour, the newspapers basically reported the whole process positively, allowing the people of Dahua to have a clearer understanding of Dahua as a country.
At the same time, I also learned about the development of various parts of Dahua.
Naturally, Wu Changqing's spirit of taking the lead and doing things personally is also highly respected.
And during this period of time, there have been news that the territory has been recovered, and the pride of the people of Dahua is also born spontaneously, and they support Wu Chang even more.
Thirty-four million square kilometers of land, this is an area that the Central Plains Dynasty has never had. It is more than three times that of the heyday of the Ming Dynasty, and six or seven times that of the weak period of the Ming Dynasty.
Such a great achievement cannot be overstated.
After returning to Nanjing, the matter of going to Shanghai was put on hold.
Running on the road all the time is actually quite tiring.
Those older ministers were already exhausted to death, and some even got sick because of it.
At night, Wu Changqing turned over Salia's sign.
Salia is the daughter of Narai, the former King of Siam, and it has been more than two months since she was sent to Nanjing. During this period of time, she has been studying court etiquette. As for Chinese, she started learning it a few years ago, and communication is no longer a problem.
A few years ago, Na Lai never thought that there would be such a day, but he still let
Salia and a group of people learned Chinese to be prepared.
This kind of thing is not only done by Na Lai, many countries in Western Europe are cultivating this kind of woman. The purpose is self-evident.
"His Majesty."
There was a bit of femininity in Salia's voice. Of course, this did not mean that her character was vicious. It's because Siamese has such a tone of voice that it sounds feminine.
No matter how fierce a man is, when he speaks Siamese, he can give people a sissy feeling.
Salia has not been learning Chinese for long, and there is a strong Siamese flavor in Chinese.
Not only is she like this, Aiko's Chinese also has a hint of hibiscus.
Wu Changqing raised her chin and looked at her carefully. She was indeed a beauty.
During this period, you don’t have to worry about Siamese beings, and you don’t have to worry that the ones she takes out are bigger than your own.
"How old is this year?"
Wu Changqing asked, the other party looked very small.
"sixteen."
There was a little panic in Salia's voice.
The man in front of her was the most powerful person in the whole world, the one who directly made her father choose to bow down.
If this man is not served comfortably, the whole of Siam will be in disaster.
Wu Changqing felt her fear. It happened to many women who were sleeping with him for the first time, so he didn't take it to heart.
That's the best thing about being an emperor, you hardly need to care about your own woman's mood, and you don't need to think about how to coax her. Anyway, they will adjust themselves.
