The urban expansion project is basically a compulsory project, because of the national upgrade task, if you want to upgrade from a middle-level marquis to a high-level marquis, the premise is that there must be an intermediate county seat.

Later, the upgrade from a high-level princely state to a small principality also required a high-level county seat, in short, the upgrading of the city was necessary.

Whether the player chooses to take the road of expansion and continue to conquer the army, or the low-key farming route, it is necessary to develop a city.

The two methods have their own merits, farming routes, specializing in the development of one or two cities, although it may be that the scale of the national level climbs quickly, and some technologies are unlocked quickly, but in the final analysis, when the time comes, the land area is too small, the army lacks experience, and there is not enough combat effectiveness, and the upgraded cities are simply other people's granaries.

All kinds of heat need to be controlled by the players themselves.

In addition, it is the population, comprehensive national strength and other conditions, as long as the conditions are met, the country can be upgraded, the comprehensive national strength during this period of time, the political index has not risen much, and it has only risen to 3 points, but in detail, it is 2.8, the economic index has not risen much, the most rising is the military index, and the current military index has 3.5.

The cultural index is the least, and although there are already buildings that can generate cultural points every month, which can provide a certain amount of cultural points every month, the cultural index of comprehensive national strength is a comprehensive measurement, so it still doesn't seem to be enough.

Ren Tian has already looked at his attribute panel, for now, to upgrade to a high-level marquis, there is only one intermediate county town left, and the intermediate county seat can be upgraded at any time after it is completed.

After the Li family was destroyed, many families chose to defect, but those families in Linchuan County did not defect, but there were very few who did not defect, and it basically did not affect the overall situation.

The army of the new country, also under the command of Tian Dan, began to sweep up the remaining bandits and bandits in Linchuan County, and after having the intelligence information provided by many families, the map of Rentian has the location of the bandits and bandits, so it is very convenient.

At the same time, with the extermination of the bandits and bandits, the negative state of "fear" in the previous [People's Heart] attribute has gradually disappeared, and the entire Linchuan County has restored tranquility, and the people can continue to live and work in peace and contentment.

In the next few days, basically the development of the new country has entered the right track, the economy of the remaining counties is gradually recovering, and the resistance to the new country is also slowly decreasing, and the new country is gradually accepted.

Not far from Nanxian County, more than a dozen new villages have been born, and these villages were the first places where the displaced people gathered to settle down, and after surviving the initial difficult stage, a lot of grain has been planted in the fields.

Of course, the most important thing in Nanxian County at present is the expansion of the city.

After Ren Tian's holy decree was issued, the courtier named Qin Wei began to take charge, and all 500 craftsmen began to get busy, and at the same time, there were tens of thousands of displaced workers recruited.

Historically, ancient engineering, in fact, is extremely cumbersome and complicated, this game has been very simple, the player only needs to issue a holy decree, out of resources, after assigning courtiers, the rest do not need to care, but craftsmen alone is not enough, but also need to recruit more labor, in ancient times, this is called conscription.

The people's hearts in Nanxian County are still very high, and they are very convinced of Ren Tian, so they recruited enough people in a short period of time, and the expansion of the city began vigorously.

At this moment, Ren Tian was standing outside the city with his hands in his hands, almost more than two miles away from Nanxian County at the moment, but in front of him were craftsmen and recruited homeless people, who began to work in front.

Urban expansion is basically to expand the scale of the city to a certain extent, and the first project is to build walls.

Ren Tian watched as the craftsmen in front of him erected molds that resembled wooden planks, while the craftsmen next to him were measuring the land to determine the length and width of the city wall, and not far away, there were homeless people who began to build scaffolding under the guidance of craftsmen.

There are tens of thousands of people, and they are very busy, and Ren Tian only sees a row of people.

He is not clear about the specific implementation of the project, only knows that the wall building technology is used, the use of the plate to build the wall, with two side plates and an end plate to form a mold, the other end of the movable fixture, and then pour lime, sand, clay composed of soil, and so on after ramming, remove the mold and translate, continue to build to the required length, for the first version, and then move the mold to the first version, such as the second version of the building, plate by version to rise with the required height.

This is basically the origin of the construction of the city wall in ancient times.

Ren Tian glanced at it, and the city walls on the left were already one and a half people high, with a certain scale and rudimentary shape.

When the new city wall around Nanxian County is completed, the task of expanding the city will be completed, and it will not be difficult to slowly repair and excavate the moat in the later period.

There is more land in Nanxian County, more buildings can be built, and it is easier to do things with land, and the nearby villages will be relocated, and new urban plans will come out.

All in all, none of this is something to worry about.

After Ren Tian looked at it, he also shook his head, got into the carriage, and went back to Nanxian.

Entering the county seat of Nanxian County, the sight is still a prosperous scene, with businessmen, pedestrians, scholars, and all kinds of people.

"Go to the tavern."

When Ren Tian came to the tavern, he met the middle-aged man sitting there before, and he was not polite, and sat down directly opposite the middle-aged man.

"Huang Gongzi, I haven't seen you for a long time."

The middle-aged man smiled slightly.

"Here's a pot of old Jimo wine."

Xiao Er went to work, Ren Tian looked at the middle-aged man, and didn't talk nonsense: "Sir, how do you see the recent development of my new country?" ”

"Very good."

The middle-aged man smiled: "Huang Gongzi is a good method, deterring the family, expanding the city, the prosperity of Nanxian County is visible to the naked eye, and even this tavern has this kind of Jimo old wine." ”

As he spoke, he took a sip and enjoyed it.

"Then the gentleman thinks that he may be able to please you?"

The middle-aged man shook his head: "It's not enough, just talking about this city, do you know how big Chang'an is in history?" How long is Nanxian County? ”

Chang'an is also considered a top city, historically 9 kilometers long and 8 kilometers wide, and it will only be bigger in this game.

However, the middle-aged man continued: "What's more, this is just the beginning, Huang Gongzi, you unify Linchuan County, this is just a foundation, according to me, there are dangers all around, how to gain a foothold is the primary goal." ”

Ren Tian also smiled: "Mr. is right, don't talk about this, drink and drink." ”
