Chapter Seventy-Five: The Neighboring Nations

The assembly line production of the steel workshop was officially implemented, and the production mode of other workshops naturally needed to be changed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

To this end, Xiao Ming wrote a production organization plan, and the knowledge in his head can not only be transmitted, but of course can also be presented on paper, so that others can learn through words, rather than simply relying on his personal teaching.

During this time, Xiao Ming used the rich knowledge in the science and technology library and his own understanding to write down a lot of technical books, which were strictly kept for reference and study.

In addition to the steel workshop, Xiao Ming also went to other workshops this time to correct the mistakes in the production process by the way.

This workshop area is Xiao Ming's pilot project, if the workshop area model is successful, the workshop area will continue to expand, after all, he has only a few workshops until now, and these workshops are far from satisfying the complete expulsion of the consumption potential of the Great Chongqing Kingdom.

So the next step, Xiao Ming's plan is to expand, replicate more steel workshops, more wineries, until saturation.

However, expansion requires silver, and it also requires sufficient labor, which is also the reason why Xiao Ming and Chen Wenlong lamented that there were not enough craftsmen.

Chen Wenlong said that the war has the fastest speed to obtain craftsmen, of course he understands, but with his current ability to start a war, it is a reason to eat arsenic with the old lady and find death.

However, it also reminded Xiao Ming that he might not have to participate in the war himself, but just take money to buy it.

Now the barbarians who enjoy the dividends of war the most, whether it is the plundering of the Great Yu Kingdom, or the oppression of Goryeo, or the war with the Ottoman Empire in Central Asia, the barbarians will rob a large number of slaves every year.

In Xiao Ming's view, the barbarians' war methods are very clever, and after analyzing many barbarian war cases, he found that the barbarian wars always slaughtered cities, which is a kind of war intimidation, similar to the contemporary Mongolian war methods.

And after conquering a country tribe, the barbarians will organize a slave army, that is, a modern puppet army, use the puppet army to consume the strength of the other party, and finally fight again.

At present, the barbarians have wiped out fifteen tribes and countries large and small in the steppe and the Western Regions, until they encounter the fierce rival Ottoman Empire.

Because the history of this time and space only changed after the Han Dynasty, Europe did not avoid being devastated by the Xiongnu who moved westward, and in the Liang Dynasty before the Dai Dynasty, the steppe tribes that rose on the steppe at that time moved westward again in the wars of the Liang Dynasty.

Persian traders from the west depicted the terrible invasion of Central Asia and Europe by the second nomads.

In Xiao Ming's view, it was fifty years earlier than the contemporary Mongol invasion of Europe, and it was precisely because the steppe tribe of the Liang Dynasty replaced the butterfly effect of the Mongol invasion of Europe that Xiao Ming was worried that the historical course of Europe would not change significantly.

However, this is only his speculation, but the birth of the Ottoman Empire is enough to explain something.

As for the barbarians today, in Xiao Ming's opinion, they are just Jurchens, because the war between the Liang Dynasty and the grassland tribe led to the westward migration of the grassland masters, so that this tribe would have the opportunity to occupy the grasslands in the north.

Now, with the half-farming, half-pastoral lifestyle, the group is truly powerful.

"What an eventful time." Xiao Ming muttered, although the development trajectory of the barbarian race has changed, Hu Lu's nature is difficult.

Perhaps he is facing a more ferocious and powerful enemy than the contemporary Daming.

That's why he wasn't in the mood to play imperial power with those older brothers and younger brothers, but to recharge his energy to face a more violent storm.

After coming out of the workshop area, Xiao Ming did not return to the palace, but went to Xiaoqinghe, where his field was located.

At this time, Lu Fei was rolling up his sleeves and reclaiming the wasteland with the soldiers, and he didn't have the tension of killing the two wealthy children at all.

"Hey, this one." Xiao Ming sighed.

If this Lu Fei did this to other vassal kings, he didn't know how many times his head would have been cut off.

"Let's go, go over and have a look." Xiao Ming said to Zhao Long and Zhao Hu.

Spring is about to begin, and some crops can be planted on this land, Xiao Ming is thinking about what to plant, food is naturally the main thing, but things like cotton can also be planted.

In early spring, like snakes, people seem to have woken up from hibernation, and Xiao Ming didn't want to go anywhere for the whole winter.

One is the heavy snow blocking the road, and the other is the bone-chilling cold.

Now he can finally ride his horse and let the cold wind hit his face.

At this time, some residual snow can still be seen on the bank of the Xiaoqing River, but there is no ice on the river, and a few wild ducks can occasionally be seen swimming around in the river.

In front of him were 3,000 new troops, hundreds of oxen toiling in the fields.

The soil is flying, the smell of spring mud gives people a natural taste, as far as the eye can see, and the cultivated fields that have been reclaimed are the credit of the Construction Corps.

"Your Highness." When Lu Fei saw Xiao Ming coming, he ran barefoot from the mud to the ridge, "How is it?" Your Highness, it's okay here. ”

"Pretty good, has all the king's land been reclaimed?"

"No, but not much, make sure to reclaim and play before spring ploughing." Lu Fei assured.

Xiao Ming patted Lu Fei on the shoulder, and when he saw a soldier passing by who was plowing the oxen and plowing the land, he suddenly became interested and said, "Let this king try." ”

The soldier was startled and stood in place, not knowing what to do below, but looking at Lu Fei.

Lu Fei was stunned and said, "Your Highness wants to drive cattle?" This is the work of the village husband, and His Royal Highness is the king of Qi, which is inevitably a loss of identity. ”

Xiao Mingcai doesn't care about his identity or not, not to mention that the contemporary leader doesn't know how to put on a show, although he is not a show, just for fun, but this is also an opportunity to communicate with the soldiers.

Maybe in the future history books, there will also be a good story of him and the soldiers sharing weal and woe.

Therefore, in Xiao Ming's view, such activities should be participated in more, which is also an opportunity to establish his image in the army.

"It's okay." Xiao Ming took the rope from the soldier's hand as he spoke, and skillfully drove to the ploughing cattle.

In his previous life, Xiao Ming was also a child in the southern ravine, and he dealt with buffalo a lot when he was a child.

Lu Fei and the other soldiers were even more surprised, one by one dumbfounded, this King of Qi once again changed his image in their hearts.

This is Lu Fei shouting to the soldiers who are plowing in the fields: "Everyone work hard, His Royal Highness the King of Qi personally went down to the field and planted the field with us, before spring ploughing, we must cultivate this land." ”

The soldiers in the distance did not know what was going on here, but the news spread quickly, and they immediately whispered, but then, as if they had infinite strength, they got to work.

Xiao Ming's unattainable image also became close in their hearts.
