Chapter 509 "Xia State's First Five-Year Development Plan" (1) 2/2
"It's good that you can think of these, the king is the ruler of the Xia Kingdom, and it is the king's responsibility to lead the Xia Kingdom to develop and grow, just like you think, if this natural disaster is more serious, the Xia Kingdom will also suffer heavy losses, maybe the Xia Kingdom will encounter more serious natural disasters in the future, and at this time, the Xia Kingdom needs to be stronger to deal with the arrival of natural disasters."
"Hmm." Ping nodded earnestly.
"Dinner is almost ready, we said as we walked, our Xia country now has a population of nearly 150,000, it seems to be a lot, among the tribes that our Xia country has come into contact with, the largest tribe has a population of less than one-fifth of our Xia country, once upon a time ......"
Su Yan felt that his eldest son had matured a lot when he went out, and he had been staying in Xia Guo, only understanding the situation in Xia Guo, not much about the outside world, so he went out and took a look more, learned more about the outside world, and understood the gap between the outside world and Xia Guo, which helped a person grow.
"I should let Ann go out and have a look in the future." Su Yan thought in his heart.
The first time he went out for so long, Ping missed his family and relatives a lot, and his relatives were also thinking about Ping, so that Ping's first dinner last longer, and everyone chatted while eating dinner, and the protagonist was naturally Ping.
The next morning, Su Yan met with the leaders of the three tribes, one of which was the Red Leaf tribe that the Second Trading Fleet first encountered.
The leaders of the three tribes and Wu Du told Su Yan that their tribe wanted to join the Xia Kingdom, Su Yan said that the Xia Kingdom welcomed the three tribes to join, and the joining time was put after the autumn harvest, the natural disaster had not passed, food was very important, and the crops grown in the farmland could not be thrown away, and Su Yan also said that he would give the three tribes a large number of weapons and equipment to increase the strength of the three tribes.
Most people in this era are honest, saying that if they join the Xia Kingdom, they will join the Xia Kingdom, even if the Xia Kingdom gives a large number of weapons and equipment to various tribes in advance, and the strength of these tribes is improved, they will not regret it.
If there is a tribe that dares to repent, then the army of the Xia Kingdom will educate the repentant tribe to be honest!
Spring ploughing has arrived, Su Yan can feel that this year's temperature has increased a lot compared with the same period last year, and many aspects indicate that natural disasters are declining, and this year's situation is about the same as the situation in the third year of the summer calendar.
Although natural disasters (extreme climate change) are not as serious as those in the fifth year of the summer calendar and the sixth year of the summer calendar, they still have a relatively large impact on human production and life.
The fact that the Xia Kingdom can withstand this fading natural disaster does not mean that other tribes can also withstand it, and even for some tribes, the situation this year is even more unbearable than the situation in previous years.
The cold is better to say, but the food alone has made many tribes difficult, and the year before last year, there were still many tribes on the earth, and some tribes lacked food, and could plunder the food of other tribes through war.
Last year's crop production was still reduced, and this year many tribes are still struggling to support the autumn harvest, but this time it is difficult for the tribes who lack food to obtain food through war, because the previous two years have passed, the number of tribes has become smaller and smaller, the human density has become sparse, and the two adjacent tribes are separated by a long distance, how can they be found.
In this case, most tribes can only rely on themselves, only the tribes that have contact with the Xia Kingdom are a little better, they really can't hold on, and they can choose to join the Xia Kingdom, but the tribes living near the river will basically not lack food.
No matter what changes there are in the outside world, Su Yan attaches the most importance to Xia Guo itself, feeling that natural disasters are declining, the probability of recurrence is very small, and the impact of natural disasters on Xia is getting smaller and smaller, Su Yan decided to formulate a plan to accelerate the development of Xia Guo, and the name of the plan is tentatively named "The First Five-Year Development Plan of Xia Kingdom".
Population, technology, territory, trade, culture, the "Xia Kingdom's First Five-Year Development Plan" will involve many aspects, the most important of which is the development of science and technology, science and technology is also the most complex, including shipbuilding, agriculture, weapons and so on.
"The First Five-Year Development Plan of the Xia Kingdom" will be a very large plan, just formulating the "First Five-Year Development Plan of the Xia Kingdom" will take a lot of Su Yan's time, and it is only spring ploughing, Su Yan decided to use the three seasons of spring, summer and autumn to write down the "First Five-Year Development Plan of the Xia Kingdom", and usually write down what comes to mind.
Wait until the winter to make the final improvements, and as long as there are no accidents, it will be officially implemented next year.
First of all, there is the issue of population, and the more the population is, the better.
At present, Xia has a population of nearly 150,000, of which less than 5,000 are slaves and servants, there are more than 24,700 adult male nationals, and more than 36,000 adult female nationals.
It can be said that with the current population base of Xia Kingdom, the annual natural increase in population can reach more than 10,000, and as the population of Xia Kingdom increases, the natural increase in population will also increase.
The only problem is that there are too many children, and adults need to devote more energy to taking care of children, so there is less energy to spend on work.
Fortunately, there is a solution to this one.
Older parents have older children, and they can take care of their younger siblings.
In addition, a special infant kindergarten can be built in the city, so that all infants and toddlers can be gathered, and fewer people can be arranged to take care of them in a unified manner, so as to reduce the burden on parents.
The natural increase in population is more than 10,000 a year, Su Yan is not too satisfied, after all, it takes fourteen or five years for children to grow up, don't look at the natural increase in the population of Xia Kingdom in about 10,000 a year, and the number of adult citizens is less than 5,000 per year, it is best that the number of newborns and adult citizens every year is about the same, and at that time, Xia Kingdom will have enough adult labor force to carry out various plans.
Therefore, on the basis of the natural increase in the population of the Xia Kingdom, it is still necessary to obtain some population from the outside world, and the methods are still those three, and the other tribes take the initiative to choose to join the Xia Kingdom, conduct population transactions with other tribes, and finally war.
Judging from the current situation of the Xia Kingdom, the potential of the first two is not large, and they cannot bring too much population to the Xia Kingdom, so there is only one last way left, war!
In fact, there are two ways to war.
The first is to oppress the target tribe with strong strength, forcing the target target to take the initiative to surrender, such a tribe can be integrated into the Xia Kingdom, and the Dragon Tribe used such a method in the early and middle stages.
The second is carried out on the basis of the first one, the target tribe refuses to surrender, then it can only go to war, with the strength of the Xia country, it is almost impossible to fail, the target tribe is destroyed, a large number of people are captured, adult men and already sensible boys are reduced to slaves, and the rest can be integrated into the Xia country, this method is mainly used in the middle of the dragon tribe.
It should be noted that no matter how strong the Xia Kingdom is, the war will always kill people. ()
