Chapter 619: See If You Are Scared to Death (Part I)
Lu Zhe, who was far away in Nanling, only learned that an envoy representing Enlightened Pan was coming three months after Luo Shao launched an invasion of Ou Yu, and he did not know that Gaotong of the envoy group was recorded in history as a "god" who could make a crossbow and kill 300 people, otherwise he would definitely summon it accurately at the first time.
For the Chinese countries, no one knows which onion the Ouluo Kingdom is, and the ministers of the Han State still know such a country because of the invasion of the object of their allegiance, but to be honest, none of the Han ministers who are busy with internal affairs and military training do not care about the arrival of the envoys of the Ouluo Kingdom.
Presiding over internal affairs was the consul Xiao He. The official position of consul is now an official position, which is equivalent to the rank of prime minister of various countries, but in the Han state, the consul is specialized in managing civil affairs and has no right to meddle in the army.
In the past two years, because of the large war money, Xiao He's leadership of the construction of civil affairs can be said to be very smooth, after all, in addition to paying the taxes that should be paid, forty percent of the counties can stay in the local area for infrastructure construction.
It is also because there is no shortage of funds in each county that Xiao He can make arrangements step by step, and he can start to let each county develop according to its own characteristics as planned.
Xiao He's main focus at present is to arrange agriculture, animal husbandry, livestock and industry, and after obtaining Lu Zhe's consent, Cangwu County is the first county to profit, followed by Hengshan County and Changsha County.
Gaotong came to Nanling by the route of Cangwu County, and he saw a lot on the way, including farmland all over Cangwu County, as well as villages under construction. He didn't understand much of the Han Kingdom, such as the distribution of farmland and the construction of villages.
In fact, Cangwu County itself is a county that is conducive to the development of agriculture, she has a vast plain, after the Tuntian soldiers were allowed to set fire to reclaim, a large area of land was combed and quickly turned into raw fields. Because it is the reclamation of the military model, it is naturally different from the people in terms of the division of labor, and the farmland that Gaotong sees is a collective labor model at all, and the people who work are full of organization. He was so frightened that he thought that the head of the Han Kingdom was so organized and disciplined, and such a farmer could become a soldier as long as he was issued with weapons!
The construction of villages was much simpler, and no one was happy to spread too widely in a sparsely populated area, so farms appeared. Lu Zhe did not cross the previous but took over the construction of the farm, when designing for the head of the Qian, there is no doubt that the modern products will be used in the contemporary, so Gaotong saw that it was a well-arranged and modern village.
When Pu Yi entered Cangwu County, although he saw so much, Gao Tong was shocked and relieved, because although Cangwu County he saw was under development and construction. But to be honest, it's really a little desolate.
Perhaps after discovering that the Han Kingdom was vast and sparsely populated, Gaotong would secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and secretly thought in his heart: "It seems that the war has destroyed most of the population of the Han Kingdom, as long as the population is not large, then the Han Kingdom should imagine whether it is worth invading the south." ”
Speaking of which, the huge Cangwu County has a population of about 300,000, how much land can such a person develop? Of course, it looks desolate. It is not so inexplicable that Gao Tong would think so, before the development of the automation industry, the population was a qiē, and without the population, there would not be enough labor. The absence of a population means that there is enough room to live, so the aggressiveness is naturally not much higher.
Gao Tong found out what a large population was when he got closer to the boundary of Nanjun, and he saw one village after another, and it seemed that the people of the Han Kingdom were too busy. They are not in a hurry during the farming season, and some of the women seem to be not idle, either tinkering with some straw or feeding the chickens and ducks.
People in that part of South Asia are lazy, mainly because of the regional environment and climate, and there are too many fruits between the mountains and forests. Even if you don't have to work all year round, you won't starve to death, so who is willing to work to the death?
Gao Tong was not so narrow-minded as to think that the busyness of the Han Qianshou was the hardship of life, and he could see that the village buildings of the Han Qianshou looked good. And those Qianshou seem to be very well nourished, and more importantly, everyone seems to have a kind of goal to fight for.
It seems necessary to overturn your own speculation? The Han state was not sparsely populated, and what we saw in Cangwu County was that the rulers of the country were gradually developing the lands to the south, and it seemed that there were troops escorting (or surveilling?) on the road. Does the southward movement of the Qianshou mean that the Han State is diverting the crowded population from the north to the south?
Although the word "immigrant" has not yet appeared, the general meaning can always be understood as long as the intelligence is normal. The Han State was constantly moving its population to the south, and it was clear that the land would naturally be used after it was occupied, and during this period, Gaotong also got a rare gap and asked a Han Qiantou in a strange accent Chu language.
Gao Tong learned that these Qiantou were not forced to move south, and it was not clear whether they were forced as the Qiantou said, but the Qiantou said more truthfully, if they were willing to settle in the south, each person could be at least allocated land according to the capitation, and the more land allocated by the Vietnamese side, the land allocated for how many years of cultivation would not have the right to buy and sell, and after many years, the land would be completely owned by private individuals, and the land would be free to buy and sell at that time.
Land? Land in South Asia is not valuable, as long as there is courage and manpower, it is very light to occupy a piece of land to cultivate casually, Gaotong is more concerned about the Qianshou said about the Qianshou who migrated southward is obliged to give Ding.
Gaotong wanted to ask more, but the Qianshou was called away. After that, he continued to test the Han army that escorted him, and his concept of "out of Ding" means to sacrifice young and strong to become soldiers, so wouldn't all the Han and Guizhou capitals that moved south become soldiers who invaded the south? The Han Kingdom seemed to be moving their heads south endlessly, and it would be terrible if all of them were soldiers.
"Become a soldier?" The people who heard this all sneered in unison, and said in a tone that those people in the Ou Kingdom did not understand: "Not everyone is qualified to gallop the territory for the king. ”
What the!? Not everyone has the opportunity to become a soldier, it's simply incredible plus ridiculous!
In the "world" of these people in the Ouyu country, soldiers are just some goods who serve in conscription, and after the outbreak of war, as long as each country can do it, it is eager to arm all those who can move to become soldiers.
What are the soldiers of the Han Kingdom talking about now? They say that it is not easy for the head of the Han State to become a soldier, it is just a joke, this is, how can the head of the Han State serve as a soldier if he does not become a soldier...... Wait a minute! There is no such thing as conscription in the Han Kingdom? This, this, this...... The worldview has collapsed!
As an officer escorting the envoys of the Ou Kingdom, the five hundred lords also seemed willing to show off something, and he explained with a hateful face.
How to say that the Ouluo Kingdom is also a continuation of the ancient Shu Kingdom, and some Chinese systems and etiquette are inherited in the Ouluo Kingdom, they are listening to the show-off of the Han army officer as if they are listening to the book of heaven, and they are listening with a completely incomprehensible expression.
The more Gao informed, the more he felt empty, the Han Kingdom seemed to be different from any of the Zhou Tianzi's feudal civilization systems, so was the plan formulated by Kaiming Pan suitable for the country that seemed strange?
On the way across the Yangtze River to Nanling, everyone in the Ou Kingdom seemed to be sleepwalking, they did not understand why they did not have to serve in the conscription, nor did they understand why the ruling class had to pay when they called the Qianshou to work, and it was even more difficult to imagine why it would be so difficult for the Qianshou of the Han State to become a soldier.
The Han soldiers who escorted all the way, from the five hundred lords to the ordinary soldiers, they were proud all the time, and they did not hide an inexplicable self-confidence, and what made Ou Yuguo even more angry was that these Han soldiers had always looked at their own affairs with contempt.
The anger of the envoys of the Ou Kingdom disappeared when they saw Nanling City, and all they were left was stunned.
Everyone who saw the towering walls of Nanling City would be stunned, standing under the city walls and fully realizing their own insignificance, and the envoys from Ouyu Kingdom were naturally the same.
"It's so majestic, it's a wall that only a god can build!" An official of the Ouluo Kingdom couldn't help but sigh when he saw the Nanling city wall.
The officer escorting the envoys of the Ou Kingdom said in a haughty tone: "Do you know how high, wide, and many roads these walls are? The man who was shocked with his mouth wide open did not speak, and he would continue in a show-off tone: "It took less than a year and a half to build such a wall. ”
Some of the Ouluo people who had more knowledge and wisdom were immediately shocked all over, and then their eyes were full of fear, terrible creative power, terrible population advantage, and there were too many terrible things.
The national capital of Ouluo is also built in accordance with the Chinese model, which is the kind of "craftsman camp country, square nine miles, side three gates, nine longitudes and nine latitudes in the country, and nine tracks in the warp and nine tracks." Left ancestor right society, facing the market. But the capital of Ouluo is a city similar to the county seat of the Han Kingdom.
There are three city walls on the periphery of Nanling City, the first city wall is about seven zhang three feet high, the second city wall is about nine zhang high, and the third city wall is almost nine zhang high, and no matter how you look at the length of the majestic city wall, it took only a year and a half to build, if the Han soldiers are not lying, the creation of the Han state is indescribable.
"When you see a county seat where 40,000 or 50,000 people live on the road, you think it's big, in fact, there are at least 130 counties with about 50,000 people in our country," the Han army officer who spoke with his head almost raised to the sky, and pointed his chin to a bun of dirt buns: "There are at least 40 counties with more than 100,000 people, and the population of our country capital living in it was 500,000 before I left, and now it must exceed this number."
