Introduction of Waba immigrants

Waxieba migration was an event in which a large number of official immigrants from Jiangxi opened up wasteland in the early Ming Dynasty, and it was part of the "Hongwu drive away". Waxieba immigrants took 48 years from the 3rd year of Hongwu to the 15th year of Yongle (1370- 14 17), and the 22nd year of Hongwu (1389). Of the 420,000 residents in Anqing, 270,000 came from Waxieba, Jiangxi.
