Of course, among the 2,000 soldiers, not all of them were Tang people, after all, the Tang people did not have so many soldiers stationed in the Dingtian Capital Protectorate.

Of the 2,000 soldiers, 1,7800 were native people who had been recruited from other cities in the region.

And using the local people to garrison, and then led by Tang soldiers, this is also Li Yuanba's means of razing and razing.

The middle and high-level personnel in the army were in charge of all affairs in the army, and the local people were the soldiers, responsible for charging into battle and attacking cities.

In short, if there is any task to send them to death, let these local soldiers rush forward first, and then the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will make commands and decisions.

Don't say that Li Yuanba is despicable and shameless, it is really the concept of "if you are not of my race, your heart will be different" has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, if you want Li Shimin to change this idea, it is estimated that it will be impossible in this life.

This is only in the construction of the city and the setting of the army, in addition, Li Yuanba also has a move to make Datang full of energy in the money and smelting industry.

What? That is, in the South African Governor's Mansion under the jurisdiction of the Dingtian Metropolitan Protectorate, various mineral deposits were excavated and mined on a large scale.

As we all know, under the fertile land of South Africa, it is rich in gold, copper, iron, diamonds and other minerals.

Therefore, for this fast land, Li Yuanba mainly focuses on mining deposits.

However, mining deposits requires a large number of miners, so Li Yuanba hit the idea on the heads of the natives of Oceania and North and South America.

In the land of Oceania and North and South America, it is not that there are no human beings, but the people living on these three continents are indigenous, and they are really "indigenous"!

Not only were they poorly clothed, but they lived in groups like ape-men, with the most primitive tools used for labor and production, and polished stone and wood tools for hunting.

There are indigenous tribes. It is even in the stage of drinking blood, and it has not even been in contact with the flames.

is such a native, after Li Yuanba defined them as "miners for nothing", they were pulled to South Africa by the Tang Dynasty's warships one after another.

As a large number of mineral deposits were excavated and sent to the Tang Dynasty, these unlucky indigenous miners also died in various mining disasters and diseases.

In the early days of excavation, there may have been people counting how many indigenous miners died, but as more and more miners died, the statistics department simply gave up the statistics. Because there's no way to count it.

……

In the past three years, if you want to say that the biggest change is Datang.

When Li Yuanba actively implemented the laws of the Tang Dynasty in the Dingtian Capital Protectorate and reformed the Dingtian Capital Protectorate system, Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty was not idle.

Li Shimin listened to Li Yuanba's suggestion, vigorously overcame public opinion, and vigorously developed industry and commerce.

In the original traditional "Shinong industry and commerce", although due to historical reasons, "Shinong" still dominated. However, with the support of Li Shimin and a group of princes, "industry and commerce" came from behind and flourished more and more.

As mentioned earlier, Datang was first built. There are many domestic families, and there are countless wealthy nobles.

Although Li Shimin has consciously suppressed these wealthy families over the years, and removed the most powerful "five surnames and seven hopes" among them, he still left a lot of stubborn families.

Although these families are far inferior to the five surnames and seven hopes of the year. But when they unite, it's a big force.

But who is he, Li Shimin?

That is a person who can almost go hand in hand with the first emperor of the ages, Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng, and the decision he made. How can these wealthy families stop it?

Compared with the "benevolent" Li Yuanba, Li Shimin in China can be said to be ruthless, and he also "fights local tyrants and divides the fields", facing the loess with their backs to the sky The people of the Tang Dynasty, the thought of this life, the emperor is the sky!

Therefore, Li Shimin did not give the people the land, nor did he give the people wealth, but only wiped out the wealthy families who dared to disobey him, uprooted them, and connected the nine clans!

All their land was taken into the treasury, their possessions into the treasury, and their houses and dwellings into the treasury.

After cleaning up a few guys who are not long-eyed, those wealthy families suddenly became honest, and they didn't even dare to put another fart.

Why don't you say that Li Shimin is domineering?

This son of heaven who once licked blood on the knife edge, but no matter who you are, or whose relative you are, dare to provoke him? What a killer!

It took half a year to purge those wealthy families, Li Shimin began to vigorously promote industrial and commercial reforms, and encouraged the people to engage in business, of course, those land that should be planted cannot be forgotten.

Two years have just passed, Li Shimin's reform is more important than seeing results, and the industry and commerce of the Tang Empire are more important than reviving after the initial slump, and they have begun to develop rapidly.

Because of the continuous improvement of the steam engine of Shenjifu, it was applied to all aspects by the government, and at the same time, it also began to flow to privatization and began to be applied to all walks of life.

At the beginning, because of the high cost of steam engines, only those families and big businessmen in Datang could afford to buy and use them.

However, with the continuous improvement of steam engines, some low-power steam engines have also been produced, and some small merchants can afford to pay this money.

As a result, steam engines are almost all over Datang, and the most widely used industries are steel, textiles and transportation!

That's right, it's shipping!

The transport industry we are talking about here is not just water: steamboats, but also land.

The Shenji Mansion developed a steam train two years ago, and the track of the steam train has been repaired for half of the Tang Dynasty in just two years.

Now it only takes five days to get from Chang'an City to Dengzhou City.

This speed may be a lot worse than the high-speed rail and maglev in Li Yuanba's previous life, but compared with traditional transportation horses, it is more than ten times faster.

Moreover, when Li Shimin improved the steam engine and vigorously applied steam, he did not forget to reduce the environmental pollution caused by the burning of coal.

He ordered the Divine Machine Mansion to do everything in its power to reduce the pollution caused by the combustion of the steam engine, and asked them to find ways to reduce it.

But so far, the only way that these research maniacs of the Divine Machine Mansion can think of is to increase the cultivation of green plants.

If we want to reduce or improve pollution, we can only seek the exploration and development of new energy.

Putting these aside, the development of Datang has indeed entered a stage of rapid growth, not only the quality of life of the people in China has improved, but the national strength of Datang is more heaven and underground than three years ago. (To be continued.) )
