Chapter 3 Laid-off workers
Of course, Li Xiangqian noticed that what Xu Hao said would not ask for the women that the North Koreans might send, but he didn't say that he didn't want other women.
That's good, everyone prefers the green mountains and rivers of this era, the huge power, and the accompanying all kinds of enjoyment, when the old time and space can't get the enjoyment, and then tell them, well, everyone, we may not be able to go back to the old time and space, and we will never see our relatives again, but, at the very least, we can have a good and happy play in this era.
As we said before, when the central government of the Ming Dynasty is finished and the new authority has not yet been established, there will still be some chaos, bandits will have some unscrupulousness, rob a wave of ordinary people, and then continue to go back to eat and drink, and the local tyrants and inferior gentry will take advantage of the loss of the authority of the government and collude with some small officials to modify the local land deeds, so as to occupy other people's land.
Of course, what kind of large-scale martial arts, killing or anything will not be too much, more than ten years of big fighting, the turbulent energy in the north of the Celestial Empire has been almost released, because the group of people who can jump up and down the most, either hung up and fled, or mixed into Li Zicheng's teams in various places, of course, so far, I don't know what Li Zicheng's henchmen in various places think, so I don't know what the movement over there is.
However, Li Xiangqian was very surprised that the road from Tangshan to Shanhaiguan was actually well protected, at least compared to some places south of the semi-desolate imperial capital, the summer grain here grew well, and some farmers even had leisure to go to the river to dig silt and make fertilizer, but after careful consideration, it was really ah.
In the past ten years, the civil strife of the Ming Dynasty obviously started from Shaanxi, and then spread to Henan, in fact, in other places, the so-called drought has basically not been so serious, but those cavalry rebels have not been able to recover as ordinary people, can only stubbornly continue to rebel, before entering Henan to make trouble.
And Hebei because of the geographical location is good, thousands of years of maturity, in fact, there is no possibility of civil strife, of course, the external disaster is also very serious, every few years to rob a wave of nomads, so that Hebei's economic system, to a large extent, to the military tilt, try to ask who does not hire a few people with higher force value as nursing homes.
This is a great embodiment in the Ming Dynasty, the famous Water Margin, Zengtou City teacher Shi Wengong, as well as Zhujiazhuang and other gun teachers, to a large extent, is written in the Ming Dynasty in order to stabilize the border passes, to supplement the lack of official and military strength and the situation, absolutely not written in the Song Dynasty.
In the east of the imperial capital, there is a paradise without war in this piece, thinking about it, it is still easy to imagine, as the last barrier against the Eight Banners, the position of Shanhaiguan, the first pass in the world, has always been well guarded, at this point, although Wu Sangui has a loss, he also has his own careful thoughts, but at least he has completed his task very well, and the Eight Banners cannot break through from the last pass that protects the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, every time, when Huang Taiji led his men and horses into the customs to rob, he went around the Great Wall, somewhere in the south of the desert, and got the cattle and sheep supplies of the Horqin tribe, as well as the rice supplies of the eight emperor merchants, before he raided the customs from the northern line, and then after a large-scale robbery, he returned from the original way, the reason is that the Shanhaiguan line is impregnable, they do not have a base, and they can rob for a while, and if they want to stay for a long time, it is basically the end of the group annihilation.
Why? Because of the war horse.
The lackeys of later generations will not tell you that every time this kind of robbery is done, only half of the war horses can go back alive, and the remaining half is also seriously fattened, and they can't be used again in a few years, in fact, this is also very common knowledge.
Cavalry, although known for its flexibility on the battlefield, seems to be invincible to the extreme in countless military blind whites, but in fact, its combat radius is even inferior to people, if a person, carrying a bag of grain, walk a thousand miles and then rest, can continue, and a horse, the need for food is several times that of people, that is to say, the need for heavy troops also need more, although you can run wild regardless of horsepower, but if you don't pay attention, it is likely to face a large-scale horse death.
Horses should eat good, eat oil cakes, eat eggs, eat beans, but they can't be fed by eating grass.
Therefore, due to the darkness under the lights, the part of the territory east of the imperial capital is the best place to be protected in the North China Plain.
Of course, in this era of many soldiers, the people have begun to learn to play the trick of building forts for self-defense, more than 10,000 people are also a vast team, hundreds of miles away, there are already people rushing to report the news, beating gongs and drums to make people gather back into the earth enclosure, and then trembling to see the changes here.
The people here may be the people who know best what is born, before thousands of dead bodies, they went to collect the corpses, and many dead horses that were left behind, weapons or something, they also went to "pick up the ocean", and from time to time there will always be a thousand-year-old falcon flying in the sky, that is a terrible thing, all kinds of Shinto legends are also popular in the world, but correspondingly, safety is also guaranteed, at least I didn't see these people to extort anything, but there were soldiers with flags to shout, let them carry and bury the corpses, In the end, I really gave the money.
So, this time, Li Xiangqian patted a few boxes around him and said to Xu Hao: "Sugar diplomacy is still very good, well, I hope they can know how to tear open the package, fortunately, there is no trademark on it, otherwise, it will be exposed." ”
Xu Hao said: "No matter how stupid you are, you know how to do it, eh, it seems that those are degradable plastics, and there are hints on them." ”
Li Xiangqian nodded and said: "It's really a thousand things, medically we are a very water doctor, well, don't tell Zhong Jiajia this, in agriculture, basically we don't have relevant equipment on the spaceship, so the automatic production of vegetables is enough for us to eat, so it's just to the extent that we know it, to be honest, that is, to produce chemical fertilizers, and then it's better to farm for these old farmers, as for automation, the cost is too great, at most it's a production point tractor." ”
"But," Xu Hao suddenly said: "The tractor factory is a tank factory, why not just build tanks to conquer the world, and then, if you want rice, it's not more convenient to produce it in the colony." ”
Li Xiangqian was depressed for a moment, and said with a smile: "Yes, this is our most difficult point, how to find jobs for tens of millions of laid-off personnel." ”
