In October, the autumn harvest was over, and there was no war in the world.

Daxianbei City is thriving, Su Da implements Yang Xi's plan, is meticulous, and many small tribes move into the city to settle. Instead of forcibly breaking them up, Su Da converted a large number of nomadic people into a settled population, diverting water from the river to open up fertile fields for the next year's wheat and other crops.

In terms of public security, Su University set up a public security bureau, with Que Ji as the director, recruiting the best of all ethnic groups, as long as they are willing to settle in Daxianbei City to register, they can sign up, according to the registered county residents, the implementation of equal management.

Everywhere the canal goes, it is the area of the Chengchen River Chamber of Commerce, which is Yang Xi's imitation of the enclosure movement of the western United States.

In order to protect the canal from harassment by hostile tribes, forts were built wherever the canal went. This fortress is not an ordinary rammed earth fortress, but a cement brick wall, which Yang Xi named a bunker.

By October, the length of the canal outside the city of Daxianbei had accumulated 100 li, covering dozens of square kilometers of fertile land, and there were 37 forts, each of which contained 150 garrisons, which were uniformly dispatched by the new deputy commander Gan Ning.

Xuzhou, the construction of Xiapi City is also in full swing, Yang Xi is busy, and the news that Pang Tong pulled out the dock in Calcutta came back, which made Yang Xi feel a lot more relieved.

There is another thing that makes Yang Xi extremely happy, that is, Tian Cong, the governor of the Wuchang Strait, has returned, and the fleet has completed a task handed over by Yang Xi.

As early as a few years ago, when Tian Cong went to sea, Yang Xi asked him to collect elephants, no matter how big or small, it was best to capture them all.

Fortunately, the chemistry exhibition at this time has also reached a certain level, and it will be done by making some anesthetics for the elephants to eat, and then adding many rope tools to catch them.

Tian Cong came back and brought back seven hundred and eighty-two elephants to Yang Xi, which was a terrifying number. Moreover, Yang Xi demanded that all elephants were not allowed to destroy their ivory, and later Yang Xi simply designated ivory as a prohibited item for sale, which can be regarded as early protection of the Asian elephant that is about to become extinct in future generations.

Yang Xi placed the elephant herd west of the city of Shanghai and opened up a huge elephant herd base for the elephants to inhabit.

The Southeast Asian elephant herd brought back by Tian Cong belongs to the ancient Indian Asian elephants, living in tropical forests, jungles or grasslands, living in groups, generally led by a female elephant A group of more than a dozen, most of them are dozens of heads, and there is no fixed habitat.

At this time, there were also elephants in Dahan, but they were small and not many, most of them were in Yizhou, so Yang Xi didn't want to.

The herd is made up of both mother and calves, and male elephants usually leave the herd in their teens and become bachelors.

Asian elephants have poor vision, sensitive sense of smell and hearing, like to bathe in the hot heat, forage in the morning and dusk, and feed on wild grasses, leaves, bamboo leaves, wild fruits, etc.

Asian elephants have a high IQ and a docile temperament, making them very easy to domesticate. Yang Xi was going to train an elephant army, so he specially asked Tian Cong to hire the natives over there with a high salary and come back to teach domestication.

The lifespan of an Asian elephant is generally 70 to 80 years, which is much higher than the lifespan of a person at this time. The key skin is thick and fat, invulnerable, its skin thickness is at least five centimeters or more, and there is a fat layer of more than five centimeters in the skin, even a shotgun headshot can not penetrate, which shows its horror.

The adult Asian elephant is 3.7 to 4.1 meters tall at the shoulder, and some are up to 10 meters in length, of course, plus the length of the nose and the weight of ** tons.

I haven't heard that horses are calculated in tons.

The trunk is almost the same length as the body, it is made up of muscles, and the tip of the nose has a finger-like protrusion that allows it to pick up objects, and it is very flexible and can pick up objects weighing up to a ton, as well as small foods as small as peanuts.

Once the two armies attacked, the elephant's trunk was pulled, and the cavalry was rolled up like a toy, without the ability to resist.

And the bull elephant also has tusks more than a meter long, and the longer the tusks live, the longer they grow, they are simply weapons on their bodies.

Legend has it that in 6oo BC, India began training elephant soldiers. Emperor Yaberg of ancient India once drove more than 3oo elephant soldiers to attack the fortress of Sitoan, which was heavily defended by more than 8ooo troops. The elephant rushed in, black and oppressive, invulnerable, unstoppable, its long snout gently rolled the man up, and then smashed the man to pieces.

The great elephant's hoof stepped on the man, and the man became a meatloaf. Aberg swept his army and captured the fortress of Sitoan.

100 meters north of Bangkok, Thailand, there is the famous tourist city of Suphan Province, where an elephant festival parade is held every year to commemorate the great victory of the elephant war. People who come here for sightseeing are all amazed by the majestic and colorful parade of elephants dressed in red and green. The majestic statue of the ancient Thai king Na Li Xuan riding an elephant makes people stop and look up, reverie the grand occasion of the elephant war in Thailand and Burma.

Pang Tong also has a hunting statue of Yang Xi in the taskbar at the moment, and he is hunting statues in Myanmar at the moment. In order to hunt the statue, Yang Xi can be said to have let go, and even disregarded the expenses of more than 100,000 troops, and stopped directly in Burmese waters.

However, Pang Tong hunted the statue, not to transport it back to the Han Dynasty, but to train elephant soldiers directly in Southeast Asia to be used against Amir in the future.

As long as no one opens the second layer of the tech tree, the War Elephant is invincible.

If the second layer of the tech tree is activated, guns, mortars, etc., come out, and the Elephant becomes a burden.

However, Yang Xi will not be so inhumane to train elephant soldiers, this time there are 782 elephants, including more than 100 juvenile elephants under the age of 12, these can not move, and there are female elephants with children, which can not be moved, and the remaining 500 or so male elephants, but 300 young ones are selected for training.

Singled out their young elephants, of course, to compensate for them. Yang Xi has created a sanctuary for the elephant herd and provided food.

An elephant eats about 250 kilograms of food a day, but it is not easy to raise, Yang Xi is also worthy of them, fortunately they mainly forage for their own food, otherwise for these elephants, they have to arrange an army.

Shanghai City belongs to Wu County, and the elephant herd inhabits Wu County, which is their home.

Qin Qing was like in the past, when he came home from school, he had to help the family do some farm work.

At the age of fourteen, she is now a water spirit, and there are already descendants in Tunli who have taken a fancy to her, but she is indifferent, and her mother Qin is helpless.

There is no way, it is clearly stipulated that men and women are equal, free to love, and parents are not allowed to arrange it.

Qin Qing went home today, but he was very worried, because he had a newspaper in his hand, and after reading the news, he couldn't put it down.

It turned out that the newspaper in Qin Qing's hand was a local newspaper in Wu County. This newspaper is also an official newspaper, and the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce issued it with the news on it, so naturally it cannot be fake.

New news came out in this issue of the newspaper that this year, Wu County recruited 10,000 Tuntian soldiers, and at the same time recruited an additional 3,000 elephant breeding soldiers, with the same level and treatment as the Tuntian soldiers, and the age was just one year lower than the requirements of the standing army, and it was required to graduate from middle school.

Qin Qing happened to graduate from middle school this year, and his age happened to meet the requirements, but this is a breeder, isn't he a breeder.

It's embarrassing for Qin Qing, if you don't go, you have to wait another year, and you may not be able to succeed in being recruited.
