Gao Tianlu is from Hebei. He was once a soldier. He later changed his career and became a farmer's association instructor and devoted himself to farmers' work.
Later, he shined in the land reform work and made a lot of contributions in the land reform actions in Shanxi and Guanzhong. He gradually accumulated merits and was promoted to county magistrate, prefect, and finally became the provincial chief official.
Gao Tianlu is an absolute expert in land reform, and his working methods are not rough.
Compared with the rough working methods of shouting and killing that were very common in those days, his working methods are more gentle and rational, and do not have killing as the ultimate goal.
He believes that revolution is not a riot, and we are not bandit leaders or copycat kings. Although we must have enthusiasm, we must not lose our minds. We must convince people with reason and establish a new set of rules, rather than simply destroying and leaving a pile of chicken feathers on the ground. .
As a result, his work performance was very good, and the losses caused were very small.
Because of his reason and calmness, he was valued by Su Yonglin. After serving in Hebei, he was transferred to Annan Central to direct the overall situation and build a base for the Ming Dynasty's national power to radiate to Southeast Asia.
His work in Annan has achieved very good results. He has initially built the Ming Dynasty National Grain Reserve Base on the Red River Plain and built a large number of collective farms.
These agricultural achievements have greatly increased the Ming Dynasty's annual grain reserves, so Gao Tianlu's political achievements are very conspicuous.
This time, letting him lead the team to support the post-war construction of the Champa Kingdom can demonstrate the importance Ming Dynasty attaches to the Champa Kingdom.
The series of working methods and precautions he proposed were unheard of by the new senior leaders of the Champa Democratic Republic.
Noting the difficulty of governing the country and the scarcity of talents to govern the country, Cha Quan decided to form a government affairs team headed by Fan Wenba and Lin Qian to study behind Gao Tianlu around the clock.
After the establishment of the Champa State is completed, Chaquan also wants to organize some cadres within the Renaissance to follow Gao Tianlu and learn the knowledge of state governance. Now everyone knows how to fight, but there is really a lack of methods for state governance. .
Gao Tianlu was very happy with the curiosity of these young brothers. He did not hide any secrets and imparted some of his experience accumulated over the years to these young brothers without reservation, hoping that they could build a new world in this land. democratic republic.
This was not only what Su Yonglin told him, but he himself also wanted to see the establishment and prosperity of the Champa Democratic Republic, because this would prove the feasibility of Su Yonglin's theory of world revolution.
Previously, regarding the theory of world revolution proposed by Su Yonglin, there were some doubts within the Renaissance Association. They felt that such an approach would be of little significance to the Ming Dynasty, and there was no guarantee that a theory that could survive in the Ming Dynasty would also survive abroad.
However, Su Yonglin persisted and deployed Renaissance organizations in advance in Dali, Champa, Korea and other places.
In Dali and Goryeo, the achievements of the Renaissance organization were limited because they failed to mobilize enough armed forces in time. They were established only a short time ago and the Ming Dynasty took action. Therefore, they failed to reflect the feasibility of the world revolutionary theory. Regarding the achievements of this theory, Not much help.
But Champa is different.
The Ming Dynasty did not plan the activities of the Champa Revival Association branch, nor did it give them orders when to launch revolutionary actions. The Champa Revival Association had autonomy in its actions.
Moreover, they have been a political and military organization from the beginning. They have controlled the armed forces from the beginning and have developed very conveniently. This is an advantage that the Renaissance organizations in several other countries do not have.
Because of this advantage, the Champa Renaissance Association had a basis for its revolutionary actions and carried out them very decisively. Although Chaquan had some shortcomings, he had a big heart in deciding issues that ordinary people did not have.
Gao Tianlu originally thought that without the help of the Ming army, Cha Quan could only defend the city and wait for the Ming army to come for reinforcements in order to defeat Zou Yana's strong army. However, he did not expect that with their own small number of troops, they could defeat the many with less and defeated Zou Yana. The battle gained a reputation.
So much so that both the Ming government and the Ming army looked upon this young team with admiration and thought they had great future.
Su Yonglin was very happy after hearing the news. He quickly instructed the Annan Central Government to do everything they could to help the Champa Renaissance Association gain a foothold and establish a democratic republic, and guide them in building the country so that they could avoid detours.
Once the Champa Democratic Republic gains a firm foothold and establishes nationwide rule, it will become the most direct result of Su Yonglin's theory of world revolution.
Their success will directly reverse the current lack of interest in world revolution among the Ming Dynasty’s Revival Society, making this theory no longer a theory but a reality.
After the success of the Champa Revolution, Su Yonglin will use resources to promote revolutions in more countries, and internal opposition will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, Su Yonglin has very high expectations for the Champa Democratic Republic.
Now it seems that these young, promising and energetic Champa revival members are indeed very organized and combative. As long as they can further enhance their professionalism and master the ability to govern the country, the development of the Champa Democratic Republic will be obvious.
If the revolution in Champa succeeds, Gao Tianlu feels that it will be a great encouragement to the Ming Dynasty, and then the next actions against the Kingdom of Bagan, Chenla and Sriwijaya should not be paper plans. .
The current Southeast Asia region, in addition to the land of Annan that was conquered by the Ming Dynasty and the annihilated Dali Kingdom, is mainly composed of the three larger unified countries of Bagan Kingdom, Chenla Kingdom and Srivijaya Kingdom, as well as other countries. There are some semi-independent small countries and tribes under it.
These three countries have a strong presence in the Indochina Peninsula, the Indian Ocean, and the South China Sea. The Ming Dynasty version of the Guangzhou Tonghai Yidao, the Maritime Silk Road, which Su Yonglin advocated, was mainly built through the areas of influence of these three countries.
Once the Maritime Silk Road is opened, it can directly lead to the Middle East and then connect Africa and Europe.
From the current point of view, in the fifth and sixth years of Hongwu, Su Yonglin began to arrange manpower and material resources to travel to the Middle East, Africa, and Europe, trying to open up the Maritime Silk Road, and looking for transfer stations suitable for the Ming Dynasty along the way to enhance the national influence of the Ming Dynasty. force.
Today, eight years later, this plan has indeed made great progress.
In the past few years, until the ninth year of Hongwu, this plan was still in the exploration and drawing stage.
Starting from the 10th year of Hongwu, the National Navigation Department of the Ming Dynasty, which was affiliated with the World Liaison Department of the Renaissance Society, finally gave a detailed action report and began to take action.
According to this detailed maritime report, the Maritime Silk Road still mainly started from Quanzhou and Guangzhou in the Ming Dynasty, and then passed through Annan and began to reach overseas.
The main route is to first arrive at Champa Kingdom, then Srivijaya Kingdom, Bagan Kingdom, Xina Kingdom, Seran Kingdom, Zhunan Kingdom, Nampi Kingdom, Gulin Kingdom, Gur Kingdom, and Magya Kingdom, and then reach the final destination. The country of Besri.
Su Yonglin didn't understand quite a few of the names of these ancient countries at first, but by comparing them with the map in his hand, he roughly knew the "identities" of these ancient countries.
For example, Rhina Country is located in Bangladesh and is an ancient local country.
The country of Selan refers to the island of Sri Lanka.
The Zhunian Kingdom is located in the southern and southeastern regions of India and controls the southern coastal areas of India.
Nambi is located on the west coast of India.
Therefore, Linguo is located in the northwest coastal area of India.
The Gur Kingdom is naturally the Gur Dynasty that was beaten up by the Ming Dynasty and then submissive. Their southern territory is also close to the Indian Ocean.
The kingdom of Maja seems to be a port city or country in the Arabian Peninsula near the coast of the Red Sea.
The final destination, the Kingdom of Besri, is in Egypt.
