The system reform was initiated from the top down, and Los Angeles changed overnight, and the slaves at the bottom suddenly got the land from the slave owners, still in a state of confusion, completely unaware of what was happening.

It wasn't until Yang Jiao organized an army and urged the slaves to urgently build temporary housing that they found themselves able to own land and private housing.

They will no longer be called slaves, but residents, and the proceeds of their labor will no longer be handed over entirely to the former slave owners, but will be collected in the form of rent from the ruling class.

Why can it be turned in in the form of a commission, in terms of the total amount of income seems to have been reduced by the ruling class - they could have taken all the output of the slaves.

The key point lies in the development of productive forces.

When a slave uses stone tools to work, it is assumed that he produces three units of grain per day, two of which are used to meet the needs of his own survival and one to the slave owner.

The slave owner owned five slaves, so he could get five units of food to meet his family's survival needs, and at the same time have the time and energy to participate in political and military activities.

Now, thanks to the large-scale use of ploughing oxen and bronze ploughs, each slave can produce an average of five units of grain, so the slave owner can theoretically get fifteen units of grain from five slaves, so it seems that he and his family can have more strength?

The answer is obviously yes, the slave owner has become stronger, but he can also be stronger.

Because after the emancipation of slaves into tenant farmers, they each formed their own families, male farmers and female weavers, and even produced seven units of grain per capita, so from the perspective of the overall output of Los Angeles, it has greatly increased.

When the people at the bottom are rich, then when Yang Jiao takes the troops to the battle, it is no longer a form of a group of slave owners for hoplites, plus slaves to carry their baggage with soy sauce.

After the feudal system is established, the structure of the army will become like this:

The first is the guards controlled by Yang Jiao himself, that is, his direct guards, the cavalry composed of iron horses and large spears.

Then there are the minor nobles below, that is, those who have changed their status as slave owners, who will be ordered to bring their own horses and weapons, and when the chief calls for it, lead the peasants of their respective lands to join.

These tenant farmers, the so-called cannon fodder troops, would form the lowest level of infantry and form a human wall battle line.

It seems that the combat effectiveness of the infantry has weakened.

This is true, but the combat effectiveness of arming a part of the noble infantry into cavalry, and then gathering the elite to attack, far exceeds that of a group of soldiers who are not strong enough to fight, which is also an inevitable military model in the feudal period.

In the era of cold weapons, there were no artillery missiles, if the elite troops in the first few rows defeated the opponent, as soon as the formation was broken, the rear would be pressed together, not simply counting the individual combat effectiveness, and then multiplying by the number of people.

The above is the expected effect after the feudalization of Los Angeles.

Reflected in reality, this is the case - Los Angeles is now centered on the Luohe Castle, radiating to the south bank of the river, the land is distributed along the river, every 100 meters is a landlord's mined, and the crops on each muffled are mainly rice and millet rice, but compared to the simple indiscriminate planting before, Yang Li issued another decree.

Each feudal lord family, if they grow pasture on their own land, can apply to the leader for the allocation of war horses.

After a year of breeding, some of the younger horses were ready for riding, and although the number was more than enough for the Guard, it was not enough to distribute to each of the feudal lords of Los Angeles, and the conditions had to be set for them.

So the landlords began to carve out land for pasture in a hurry, trying to arm themselves into cavalry.

On the one hand, the cultivation of crops on the land was one thing, and on the other hand, the wooden walls built by the landlords were all uprooted by Yang Li, because Los Angeles would appear as a whole city defense system, rather than individual illegal estates.

A new stone wall enclosed more than fifty acres of land.

Because it was built temporarily, the stone walls were very rudimentary, and the arrow towers with an interval of about 50 meters were only hastily built, which are all projects that need to be improved in the future.

Of course, the outer defense of the city does not need much, as long as the Luohe Castle is built strong, then this land will be impregnable.

The market area is specially divided and located in an open space directly east of the castle.

The original owner of this land was driven away by Yang Li, and gave a double size of the cultivated land as compensation, and gave a foal, as a result, the demolition of this house is called a fast, good house in the morning, like an excavator passing by in the afternoon, and even the foundation can not be found.

Instead, there is a circular square.

In the middle of the square is a pond where fish are kept and fishing is prohibited.

The square is surrounded by shops, and you can settle in by paying rent.

Yang Li has considered the situation of small vendors who set up stalls along the street, and they are the group of people who are most likely to have conflicts with shop owners.

Why, because the stall saves the cost of the store, then the cost is naturally relatively low, if the goods sold are the same, the person who rents the shop to sell the goods will naturally suffer.

If everyone goes to set up a stall, what is the use of this shop?

Yang Jiao did not mean to call on the chengguan to clean up the small traders, what he did was not to restrict those itinerant merchants, but to create a better business environment in the shop square.

How? Foot traffic.

The pasture is in the west of Luohe Castle, the port is in the northwest corner of the castle, and the residential area is in the east.

The more people pass by, the more people come into the shops to see.

The number of people who see it is the so-called increase in traffic, so according to the purchase rate, the average number of people passing by per 100 people passing by, how many people buy, this is the advantage of the bazaar.

When the market shops gain the advantage of a large increase in sales, the tenants will not feel that they are losing more than the street vendors, after all, the benefits from the flow of people have greatly compensated for the rent expenses.

There is more than one business district, the other is at the dock.

As history has repeatedly witnessed, the port is always favored by commerce, and Yang Jiao did not intervene too much, and a commercial area was naturally formed there, and if the square market on the east side of the castle belonged to the internal trade market, then the port market was mainly responsible for foreign trade.

In this context, we refer to trade with other tribes.

The tribes of the upper and lower reaches of the Luo River have regarded Los Angeles as a meeting center of civilization, and there is an endless stream of caravans and visitors who come by boat, bringing their own specialties and trying to exchange tools and agricultural tools.

Thanks to Yang Li's intention to improve the overall population level of the Chinese tribes, rice and improved soybean seeds were traded on a large scale, which means that other tribes will soon be able to obtain population expansion through the development of agriculture, after the population expansion, the primitive tribal structure will naturally be unmanageable, then a new system will be born, and the arrival of slavery is inevitable.

That is to say, in the near future, Los Angeles will take the advanced feudal system as the core, and spread culture and material to the surrounding areas together, and the power of this transmission is very terrifying, without the need for swords, people with different languages and appearances can be included in the same nation.

The blood of the nation is blended, and finally it is the Chinese that has been inherited for thousands of years.

Yang Li really hopes to climb up the steel technology first, and then complete the reunification, but it seems that there is no need for this at present.

When the Qin State annexed the Six Kingdoms and completed the unification, iron tools had begun to be promoted and used in agriculture, but the main weapon in the hands of the Qin army was still the bronze sword, according to some modern documents, the quality of the early iron tools was not up to standard, and it was not as powerful as the bronze weapons.

And bronze is very difficult to rust, preserved for thousands of years to take out a bronze sword, in addition to the surface has become turquoise, its essence is still light gold bronze, still sharp, can cut through multiple layers of paper.

An iron sword will not work, and after a thousand years, it will be a rusty burning stick that will shatter when touched.

Therefore, taking the sharpness of the sword of King Goujian of Yue as an example in the textbook is actually a careful trick, because bronze is not rusty, and compared with iron, it is really short of attacking the enemy with its own strengths.

It can be seen from the expansion of the Qin State that the equipment and military system are important factors affecting the outcome of the war, the Qin soldiers have played with morale, and the armor is gone, only carrying a sword to find someone to kill on the battlefield, and the killed enemy cuts off the head and ties it around the waist, which is caused by the military merit system.

Let the feudal lords of Los Angeles adapt to the new system, Yang Jiao can also wait for the time when the grass is yellow and the horse is fat, and at this time, he will not send troops to fight against the black blood tribe, and unify the "Yan" in the Yanhuang clan, and wait for when.

The lords who were divided out received Yang Li's conscription almost on the same day, and there were four pieces of land divided at this stage, and each lord could provide about two hundred warriors.

First of all, on the north bank of the Luo River, the lord of Falcon, his army is mainly light infantry, good at surprise attacks and movement warfare, and at the same time, he also has a group of old subordinates of about twenty people taken from the riverland, which belongs to the elite who can attack head-on.

The second is the lord of the Xuanyuan clan, Xuanyuan Jingdou, his soldiers are good at short spears, can list round formations to resist the enemy, and can play a certain role in positional warfare.

The third lord is also on the north bank of the Luo River, that is, Comrade Zhang Dengyun, who is not in the eye with Xue Pijiang, is a young lord, but he is very good at indecent development, although there has been no movement in the past six months, but through murder, provocation and division, he annexed four or five surrounding tribes, and doubled his territory. Zhang Dengyun's troops were mainly composed of archers, and the frontal combat effectiveness seemed to be quite weak, but the young man didn't care, and even ignored the shortcomings, so Yang Jiao guessed that he had other means.

The last lord was newly incorporated into Los Angeles.

The half-familiar tribe, the Yong family, they finally didn't want to live a hard life anymore and watched their neighbors make a fortune, so they moved over collectively, and the original old patriarch asked Yang Li to give him a lord, and he also enjoyed the technical preferential treatment of Los Angeles, and he was very happy. Of course, the Yongshi did not have any decent soldiers, but they could provide some wooden boats and sailors to act as sailors to transport food and troops, which was quite useful.

There were 1,000 soldiers and 1,000 auxiliary soldiers, and Yang Li's army of more than 2,000 people was called 100,000 and embarked on the journey.
