Chapter 529: Developing Agriculture (I)
Nearly half of Helgen's territory, including the Imperial City of Helgen, which was about to be turned into ruins, and the area where the Snow Trolls and the Snow Trolls who moved to the direction of the Northern Continent under the pursuit of the 11th Cavalry Regiment under the pursuit of the Sunset Cavalry Regiment were all given to the Dark Dynasty, and the loss he gained as their territory on the ground was nothing to Sun Lin.
First of all, the territory that Sun Lin ceded to the Dark Dynasty was even in the summer of the year, when the ice and snow had long since receded, where the temperature did not exceed 10 degrees Celsius, and the soil had almost no nutrients, so that such an area could not grow any decent crops at all, and it was impossible for a crop grower to live in an area that was extremely cold all year round; Secondly, as Sun Lin said before, if Sun Lin wants to send troops to the Western Regions of the Central Continent to avenge the two generals who never set, then Sun Lin must give his rear a guarantee, and if he gives up these chicken-ribbed territories to the Dark Dynasty, he will be able to make this great empire whose main scope of activity is still underground have to allocate a part of his forces to be stationed here to help the great empire of the sun never set resist the invasion of the alien forces and human forces from the northern regions of the Central Continent, and even some threats from the king's inner sea.
And the most important thing is that the sun does not set has made enough money in the transaction this time, and Sun Lin doesn't care about this "little money" at all: although Sun Lin provided the armor of the spider clan, he did not provide the so-called warranty while providing the armor, and the armor casting technique of the Sun Never Sets Empire and the armor casting technique of the vampire empire are not the same road at all, plus there are no decent blacksmiths in the dark dynasty itself, which makes it possible if the armor of those spider warriors is bad no matter what the circumstances, In the end, the Spider Clan must let the Sunset Craftsman repair it under the condition of paying a certain amount of coins, and the cost of repairing these armors at that time is not as much as Sun Lin said.
Of course, Sun Lin couldn't give the Dark Dynasty a big gift in vain, even if the gift itself would make the Dark Dynasty pay the price for it in the future. Therefore, when Sun Lin promised to hand over all the territory to the Dark Dynasty, Sun Lin also asked the army of the Dark Dynasty to arrest all the Helgen people he encountered, whether men, women, or children, in the next pacification of the territory of the United Kingdom of Helgen, and then send troops to escort them to the territory of the current Ottoman territory: the reason for this is because Sun Lin had to use fire to burn all the grasslands and woods to ashes in order to solve the problem of those poisonous weeds, While this incident made the land in the Ottoman Territory very fertile, it also made the civil officials of the Ottoman Territory now realize that due to the previous war between the Sun and the Ottomans, coupled with the last Great Famine in the Northwest of the Central Continent, the total Ottoman population had shrunk by nearly half, resulting in the Ottoman Territory not having enough manpower to reclaim the land after the emergence of a large area of land that could be cultivated for food crops.
For this reason, after thinking about it, Sun Lin turned his mind to the Helgen people who were wandering around the territory of the former United Kingdom of Helgen, being expelled by underground creatures. As for how the people of the Dark Dynasty should capture and transport the Helgen branch of these human races to the Ottoman territory, and even if these problems are dealt with next, Sun Lin will not care, because he still has to deal with the problem of the million dark elves, and the agricultural problem of the great empire on which the sun never sets.
With the appearance of these millions of dark elves, Sun Lin gradually realized that the infrastructure construction of the sun never sets in recent years is gradually going astray: Sun Lin found that the development of the sun never sets empire in recent years has been too radical, so that although the sun never sets empire has been promoted to the bottom of the industry that is stronger than many old powers, in terms of agriculture and light industry, it is estimated that even the worst empire in the king continent, the Dongting Empire, is not as strong as the other. It is conceivable how slow the agricultural development of the Great Empire has been in recent years (this is not to say that the total grain output of the Great Empire is not to be distributed, but to refer to the amount of grain distributed per capita in the Empire)
Of course, this is not to say that the grain production of the Great Empire is not high, otherwise what can the Great Empire of the Sun Never Set do to export some grain to make money? It's just that in the Middle Ages, which is dominated by the development of agriculture, the development of industry is indeed a bit misguided. Moreover, with the absorption of a large number of foreign populations in recent years, although the sun does not set in the process of expanding the territory to occupy an endless range of fertile land, after all, compared with the occupation of the imperial army, the population growth rate of the great empire will be faster, so that the agriculture of the empire gradually shows a sense of powerlessness.
This made Sun Lin decide to deal with the agricultural problems of the Sunset Empire in the end of the 7th year of the new calendar in the last few months of the year before commanding the Sun Never Sets Central Continent Expeditionary Force and the Sun Never Set West Army to enter the Western Regions of the Central Continent, and the first thing in front of Sun Lin was the million dark elf slaves: letting the dark elves cultivate fertile land in the Ottoman territory is obviously not the most beneficial to the sunset agriculture, although it stands to reason that with the addition of this group of dark elves, It is very likely that the farming in the Ottoman Territory will be restored to the original when the Ottoman Empire was not breached by the time the 8th year of the new calendar, and even the production will be increased due to the natural fertilizer left behind after the previous fires, but after all, the farming in the Ottoman Territory has almost been developed, and according to the tests of several agricultural experts, the farming in the Ottoman Territory can produce up to 10% more than the original amount, and it will never be able to go further.
Therefore, after considering one side, Sun Lin decided to bring these million dark elves to the junction of the Nat Plain and the area previously controlled by the Cuman tribe, so that these dark elves could establish towns and villages in the vicinity, and began to vigorously reclaim those fertile grasslands and plains and turn them into fields.
The reason for this is very simple, first of all, the fertility of this area is the same as the fertility of the central land of the Nat Plain, and secondly, there are Cuman tribe activities in this area, Sun Lin can use the mouth of Uda to let these Cuman tribes replace the Sunset army and suppress these elves from the underground, and the most important thing is that this area has not been developed because it was a place where the Dick Empire and the Cuman tribe had friction before, and now this area is not the main grassland of the Sunset Herding Horse Guild and the Cuman tribeThere is no need to worry about transforming this area into fertile land.
