Chapter 469: Start work
Liu Ling's red-clothed thieves were more than 1,000 people, less than 2,000. All in all, the combat power is very strong in this small tribe.
She also knows a lot about Buyeo's side.
Yan Ming asked Sima Xiu to notify the leaders of the surrounding small tribes in Fuyu in his own name to go to Tucheng for a meeting.
These small tribal leaders are proud, and they won't all go because of Yan Ming's words.
On the day of the meeting, only a few people from Tucheng arrived.
More tribes have chosen to wait and see. They want to see what they can do by the people who go.
Yan Ming warmly greeted these tribes and invited them to the houses he had built.
Not to mention anything else, in the north, a large fire kang is definitely the most popular.
At this time, the peoples of the north were not inhabited by fire kangs, but fire pits. Dig a hole in the ground, add heated fuel to it, and sleep directly on the ground.
It belongs to the transition from the cave-dwelling era.
Seeing Yan Ming's big fire kang here, everyone first felt different.
First, it was chattering, and it was homely.
Then the main topic is introduced.
Yan Ming expressed his desire to build an alliance with the entire north. Of course, this alliance big man became dominant.
The leaders of the tribe did not have much idea of who would be in charge. They only care about what they can get.
Yan Ming took them outside to take a look.
Outside, there are many wooden ploughs, and one person and one ox can farm the land, which is considered an advanced thing at this time.
Then they were shown a large amount of corn and potato seeds.
"Those who obey me will be given ploughs and seeds, and those who do not obey will be attacked and killed." Yan Ming's words were said with a smile, but they made people shudder.
Yan Ming's biggest opposition is war, but in today's situation, without vigorous and resolute means, it is absolutely impossible.
The leaders of the tribe looked at each other.
Several people chose to agree to Yan Ming's affiliate plan and got the seeds. As for the wooden plow, Yan Ming said that he would give the practice of the wooden plough to the carpenters of their tribe.
Everyone knows that the most important thing is the seed.
The leaders of several other tribes studied it and felt that they were nomadic tribes who cultivated very little. Let them abandon the traditional way of life like this, they are unwilling.
Yan Ming knew that this kind of thing couldn't be forced. But after a year, maybe their attitude will change.
In the blink of an eye, spring has arrived.
The cold, at last, receded on the northern land. In its place, the earth is gradually soft.
Yan Ming is still in class.
Because the earth city was watered with too much water in winter, it was not solid in the spring, and the whole block began to collapse.
"It's spring, we should go east and settle down there." Yan Ming and Han Yan discussed.
The war between Han and Hungary was not over.
Yi Zhiyi fought very tenaciously, and was attacked by Wei Qingqi many times, but he still escaped from death, and he was able to organize people to fight back.
Yan Ming didn't pay attention to these anymore. Because until now, no Han envoy has come over once.
Liu Che, forgot about him?!
When they were about to set off, Yan Ming asked Han Yan for the last time if he wanted to return to the Han Dynasty.
Han Yan didn't answer, just rode on a war horse and walked side by side with Yan Ming.
Where they lived, there were hills.
But after continuing to walk east for nearly three days, there was gradually no hill.
Unfolding in front of their eyes was an endless prairie.
In the middle of the grassland, there is a river, like a jade belt, passing through the boundless plain, looking crystal clear.
"Let's build a city by this river." Yan Ming looked at the river and couldn't confirm whether it was the Nenjiang River or the Songhua River at this time, of course, it could never be Heilongjiang. thought that if he took Hulunbuir Lake as the coordinates and walked south-east, he should not be able to walk to the shore of the Heilongjiang River.
The old and young of the Hu family came in handy this time.
When he was in Maolyeung-eup, he already knew how to fire green bricks and make cement glass. Now that winter is over, it's time for him to show his skills.
Yan Ming assigned five hundred people to the Hu family.
This kid is not very old, but his ability to manage people is not small, but in half a day, he can properly clean up the five hundred heat.
Yan Ming picked out the remaining people and selected two thousand sturdy soldiers as a guard force for Han Yan to lead.
The rest, whether Han Chinese, Xiongnu or Xianbei people, were assigned the task of cultivating land. It's all in the hands of Nameless.
Although Nameless is a kung fu master, there is absolutely no ambiguity in farming. Even in the cultivation of corn and potatoes, it is the most practical experience of their group.
This place belongs to the territory of the Buyeo people, but Yan Ming and their wave of men and horses are too powerful, so that several tribes around Buyeo have not risen up to attack at all.
They were just watching what the hell was going on.
Yan Ming was also happy to let them spy on him.
Let the two thousand elites do a good job of guarding, and the rest is to start the infrastructure construction vigorously.
Elder Chen also led the people of the blacksmith battalion to surround Hu Deyong and wait for dispatch. In order to build an iron-smelting furnace for him to smelt pig iron after the green brick cement was successfully fired.
All the people are busy.
Yan Ming's teaching career was not wasted. He took the children in an open-air environment, with the earth as the classroom and the sky as the classroom, and began the career of reading and literacy.
The surrounding Buyeong people watched for a month, but found that this group of people didn't know how, in the black smoke miasma, they actually fired green bricks.
Hu Deyong thought very clearly, this first batch of green bricks was not to build a house for Yan Ming, nor to build an iron-smelting furnace for Lao Chen. Rather, it is to be used to renovate the brick kiln that burns bricks.
This idea, no one has an opinion. After all, if you want to get more green bricks, the brick kiln can't cut corners.
There is great power in numbers, and in the age when mechanical words have not been reached, it is absolutely true.
It took less than half a month to build the brick kiln and successfully fired the first batch of green bricks.
In terms of the supply of green bricks, the next step is to start urban planning.
Yan Ming is on this, there is no sloppiness. According to the requirements of the construction of Maoling-eup, the planning and deployment under the city should be done first, and then the construction of the urban surface should begin.
Of course, before such a big project, a simple house was built. It is said to be simple, but it is also a brick house, which looks completely different from those low and small earthen houses.
When the first blue-brick house was built, the Buyeo tribe who were watching them were shocked. They lived in a low, dark mud house, when had they ever seen such a house?
When a row of blue brick houses was built, the Buyeo people finally couldn't bear it anymore, and they sent messengers.
Yan Ming had expected these for a long time, so he was waiting for them to send a messenger.
(Thank you 'Tianshan Tangmen' brothers, it's been half a month in a row!) I have a cold, but I'm trying to add a change today. Thanks again! )
