The core of colonization is to achieve a small number of people to manage the majority, and the ancient Jin, Yuan, Qing, Western Xia, and Liao barely managed to do it, so that the cost paid was low and the benefits were high. In modern times, such as the Eight-Power Alliance, there are actually few people, but the benefits obtained are enormous. In the concession, the majority of Chinese, and a small number of foreigners can control them, and the benefits are extremely great. Colonization is to a small number of people in the local area to suppress them, squeeze and even enslave the local people, and the Ming Dynasty can not, even if you defeat Vietnam, the most people give you tribute, can you send tens of thousands of people (and it is civilian) to the past, the Vietnamese enslaved to death?
