Chapter 813: Attacking Europe

Renzong abdicated, Chan gave to Zhao Xin, he and his concubines, went to the mountains and rivers, from the north to the south, all over China, Zhao Xin did a good job of logistics, there was enough money to spend, and there was nothing to worry about, of course, life was very comfortable.

In the 10 years of Renzong's abdication, Zhao Xin basically dealt with the internal affairs of the Northern Song Dynasty, first of all, to solve financial problems.

Before the Northern Song Dynasty did not develop significantly, the deficit still existed and needed to be solved.

Zhao Xin's solution was very simple, and it was short, and he directly mobilized 5 billion yuan of funds and injected it into the three divisions of the Northern Song Dynasty, which suddenly made the three divisions eat and support, and the deficit was of course solved.

In the following years, with the government system of the Dinghai Navy replacing the Northern Song Dynasty, everything went smoothly, whether it was urban development, or starting from the traffic situation of railways and highways, and implementing the solution of shipping, air transportation, and transportation, so that the entire Northern Song Dynasty was combined into a whole, and the development was smooth.

After that, nearly 40 large and medium-sized cities, including 5 capitals, were built, and large-scale immigration began.

Dinghai was originally developed in Liao, at that time for 10 years, all in the northeast, the whole Shenyang around the construction of a huge industrial area, but the high latitude area, after all, is not very suitable for human life, especially in winter, it is simply a forbidden area in the world.

In the past, there was no way, but now, with the development of the south and a large number of urban construction, a large number of people began to return to the Northern Song Dynasty.

The warm climate and more suitable living conditions have stimulated population growth from the side, and the fertility rate has increased slightly.

With China's current total population base, not to mention a substantial increase, even if it is a slight increase, it will be hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands of population growth, and it has also promoted the prosperity of the entire Northern Song Dynasty from the side.

It has to be denied that a country with a large population may not be strong, but a strong country, if it lacks a sufficient population, will not be able to stand among the nations of the world, especially without the presence of the United Nations.

Concentrate on development, after 1070, after gradually stabilizing the Northern Song Dynasty, smoothing the Northern Song Dynasty again, on the original basis, the implementation of the five major capitals, and with routes, railways, highways and waterways to connect, the Northern Song Dynasty almost every time, is undergoing rapid changes, and at this moment, in its contemporaries and the world, there is no feeling at all.

In 1089, that is, the twenty-sixth year of Zhao Xin's reign, the entire national strength reached the extreme, the Northern Song Dynasty had a land area of more than 50 million square kilometers, this 50 million square kilometers, including most of Asia, except for the Arabian Peninsula, there are a few places, almost all of the rest of Asia is occupied by China, including the South Asian subcontinent and Southeast Asia.

The whole of Asia is only 44 million square kilometers, excluding parts of the Middle East and the Arabian Peninsula, there is even more, 50 million square kilometers of land, in fact, including the Americas.

The Americas, in the beginning, were sporadic developments, and among those who did not want to be incorporated into China, the barbaric development in the Americas, some of them were like the beginning of the United States, along the line of the Pacific Ocean, west of the Rocky Mountains, which was the land directly under the jurisdiction of China, and the rest, along with the distance, were distributed in large numbers of settlements in turn.

Only a few of these settlements were protected by the Dinghai Navy, and most of the others were developed savagely.

Although it is said that because of the ethical and moral factors of the entire Northern Song Dynasty, the Chinese colonists did not massacre the Indians in the Americas, but the drawbacks of tens of millions of years of evolution still caused the Indians to suffer a huge blow.

The North Americans, which have developed steadily and have a stable food and life, have become more calamitous and difficult, and all kinds of infectious diseases have begun to appear in the Americas, which can only be regarded as drizzle for the residents of the Northern Song Dynasty, and have experienced more serious bacteria than this, and their antibacterial properties are very strong, even if there are some that exceed the resistance capacity, there are doctors from the Dinghai Navy here.

From the fifth year of Qingli, the time of the establishment of the Dinghai Navy, began to pay attention to the medical system, from the rescue of traditional Chinese medicine, excavation, Dinghai did a very good job, although it is said that there are not a few famous doctors, but with the help of the royal collection, or get a lot of medical books.

Some medical books even have a history of hundreds or thousands of years, but if they are placed in the Royal Library, they are an antique, but when they are placed here by Zhao Xin, they are knowledge and inheritance.

Zhao Xin, who has come from the 21st century, does not have the idea of advocating authority, authority is used to overthrow, the traditional Chinese medicine he focuses on is the system of traditional Chinese medicine, maybe some ancient prescriptions, can be used, but with the help of the system, the old and the new, and research out of some things, is the key.

From the establishment of the traditional Chinese medicine system, to the gradual development, and then to Zhao Xin, a lot of systems have been integrated into traditional Chinese medicine, and some Western medicine has developed better, system theory, examination methods, as well as infusion and blood transfusion, surgery and other things, have been integrated into traditional Chinese medicine, find out some methods from traditional Chinese medicine, apply them, and have a certain understanding of infectious diseases and bacteriology, even if it is the virulent Black Death, there are means of treatment and prevention, not to mention that these themselves are the germs brought by the Northern Song Dynasty.

On the side of the Northern Song Dynasty, there were not many casualties, at most a handful of serious ones, and the influence was not as great as a cold.

Wanton infectious diseases, so that the Indians in the Americas, encountered the darkest era in history, from occasional onset, to intensive, and then every spring and autumn, there will be two large-scale epidemics, although in the continuous epidemic and struggle, the physical fitness of the Indians, antibacterial, has been greatly improved, but the price is the death of a stubble.

Even if the Spaniards used the Black Death to deal with the Indians, it was impossible to kill them all, the real extinction was the dual combination of germs and butcher knives, the Northern Song Dynasty was not so ruthless, but in more than ten or twenty years, the total population of the Indians was reduced too much.

At present, in the Americas, the territory of the Indians is only a small part of Central America, which has shrunk on a large scale compared to before, while the Northern Song Dynasty people have occupied a large amount of land in North America on a large scale.

This barbaric development, in 1072, after the Ding Navy gradually occupied most of the Asian region, was solved, for those who occupied the king, appeased and recruited, by the way, let them continue to develop, at least 15 million square kilometers of land in North America, almost the most elite area of the United States and Canada in later generations, was controlled by the Ding Navy, and it has been greatly developed.

After decades of steady and high-speed development, the Chinese population has reached 700 million, accounting for more than ninety and five percent of the entire world, of which the Asian part, about 600 million, and the North American part, also has 100 million, although it is a land 10,000 kilometers away, but with the support of aircraft, ships and other means of transportation, it is not an extraterritorial place.

The process of industrialization has also been basically completed, the development of the steam engine to the extreme, the internal combustion engine and electricity have also developed on a large scale, which is manifested in the railway, that is, the diesel locomotive has replaced the steam locomotive, and in the core railway, there is an electric locomotive.

The emergence of electric locomotives has greatly accelerated the speed, in steam locomotives, the speed of 170 kilometers per hour, the limit is about 180, and the diesel locomotives are less than 200, but when it comes to electric locomotives, as long as you want to, more than 200, it is not difficult at all, at least, about 140-160 per hour, can be reached.

It seems that it is only a little larger than the average speed of 120 per hour, and the circle reached in one day has increased by more than 50%, that is, from the capital Nanyang outward, according to the 24-hour circle, nearly 3,500 kilometers, this distance almost includes the most core area of the Dinghai Navy.

Such a convenient and fast transportation state, so that China's development, once again plugged in the wings, coupled with the continuous investment in education, the era of the big explosion of science and technology has arrived, almost every year there are new things, three or five years, there have been profound changes.

According to conservative estimates, China's overall development is much greater than it was in 1930, when World War II began.

The Northern Song Dynasty is not the effect of Britain and the Netherlands, with a huge population plus land, resources and technology, as long as its own development is not slow, it is almost possible to catch up, not to mention, China is still developing rapidly.

In the development of Asia, and in Siberia and Central Asia, two railways were built respectively, gradually extending to the west, they represent the tentacles of China, and at the same time, in the southern seas, the construction of various ports, the construction of waterways, that is another way.

Railways and shipping, the combination of the two, firmly grasped Asia in its hands, and after doing a good job of stabilizing the internal layout, China still expanded.

In 1090, after 20 years of construction, two major communication arteries began to penetrate, one started from Shenyang, bypassed to Heilongjiang, and then along the frozen soil of Siberia, to the west, around the Ural Pass through the whole of Siberia, and arrived in Europe.

At this time, Russia did not have the prestige of later generations, probably in the 6th century, the Slavs who crossed east, established a kingdom in the 8th century, but in the 12th century, it was divided, at this time, although it was a kingdom, it was on the verge of splitting, not to mention compared with the thermal weapons of the Dinghai Navy, even if it was the three great powers in East Asia, any of them brought the main army, he was not an opponent.

This road, which is considered the northern front, only used 150,000 troops, and this part of the army is mainly to attack the lands that originally belonged to Russia, and by the way, to deal with the three Nordic powers.

The real main force came from Central Asia, starting from the Dinghai Navy, not Shenyang, but the former base camp, taking the old road of the Longhai Railway, all the way from the mountain pass through Yili, entering Central Asia, and then meandering, the railway, and finally built to the coast of the Caspian coast.

The Caspian Sea, on the map of Europe, is nothing, but it is an important place to connect with Asia, after crossing the Caspian Sea, it is the hinterland of Europe, and China began to use troops against Europe.

Europe in this era, in the dark age of the Middle Ages, how can Europe in the age of knights and lords be able to block the Northern Song Dynasty.

Here, Zhao Xin even used some means, itself, Zhao Xin did not think about using the means of bacteriological warfare, but the encounter in North America, especially the tragic situation of the Indians, still made Zhao Xin moved.

The Indians have no grievances with the Chinese, but the Caucasian people have, not to mention how much humiliation China has endured after 1840, just say that in the 21st century, the West, led by the Caucasians, has used many stumbling blocks for China, and from this point, they cannot be spared.

In fact, China, the representative of the yellow race, has been leading the world in the past few thousand years, but in the 15th and 16th centuries, it began to fall behind.

However, since the 15th century, it has been the world's fastest growing and fastest changing era.

Now, China has this opportunity, of course, to develop as much as possible, and at the same time, some methods of bacteriological warfare have also begun to be carried out, and this standard is the Black Death.

The Black Death began to ravage Europe, and the development of science and technology allowed the Northern Song Dynasty to have a vaccine, but Europe did not, and the Caucasian began to greatly reduce the population, and the decrease in their population, correspondingly, the territory and influence of the Dinghai Navy were constantly expanding.

It stands to reason that China's army, whether in combat effectiveness or mobility, is much stronger than Mongolia, which once swept across the entire Eurasian continent, and the railway is one aspect, and the key is that after 1090, the Dinghai Navy has popularized motor vehicles after more than 30 years of development.

All kinds of military materials can be loaded by motor vehicles, including people, some tracked ones, which can be carried out in the wilderness without barriers, and their mobility is much stronger than that of the Mongolian cavalry.

With such mobility and combat effectiveness, if you really want to fight, you can still sweep across the Eurasian continent in a short period of time.

But no, from the beginning of the strategy to Europe, the progress is not very fast, about 400 to 500 kilometers a year, the reason is very simple, whether it is Zhao Xin, or the current development strategy of China, it is a steady and steady progress.

China already has a very large territory, land is no longer the most important factor, soaring, occupy a large amount of territory, once there is a problem, will spit out, China's approach is to occupy a place, operate a piece of construction, and even for the local people, it will be diluted and processed, will not be killed casually, but integrated into China, a huge tens of millions of square kilometers of land, close to 1 billion people, assimilation of Europe at that time, tens of millions of people, there is still no problem.
