Chapter 974: The Old Lady Who Starved to Death (13)
Although on the whole, this scene looks a little embarrassing, but anyway, the main thing everyone watches is not the play, the main thing is the special effects, this kind of lifelike special effects, not to mention deceiving this kind of ancient people who have not even invented firearms, it is no problem to deceive ordinary people in modern times.
Therefore, the effect is naturally leveraged.
The embarrassment of the words was completely ignored by everyone, and everyone only felt that the power of God was like a prison.
Zhang Dou, who was standing on the Temple of Heaven, was a little stunned for a while, although he had watched a lot of TV series and movies in Taoyuan Valley in the past.
However, there is still a big gap between the special effects shown by TV dramas and movies and the special effects shown by holograms, not to mention this kind of holograms that cover dozens of ** away.
However, he had seen something similar before, and he had been prepared, so he quickly relented, and officially turned around and began to look at the attitudes of those below.
At this time, the entire Temple of Heaven was silent for several miles, whether it was the ordinary people on the periphery, or the leaders of the various people and horses who proclaimed themselves generals near the edge of the Temple of Heaven, all of them knelt on the ground in some horror, bowed their heads and bowed, and there was no one who even raised their heads.
Don't underestimate people's fear of the unknown.
Anything that is beyond the reach of human beings.
It's not what the human brain can imagine.
It's all great horror, it's all myth.
It's human nature to be afraid of the unknown.
It is also human nature to be fearful and powerful.
The body of the Haotian Emperor that was just revealed in the sky, whether it was the way he appeared or the specific size and height, undoubtedly represented that he was a powerful and unknown existence, so it was normal for everyone present to be afraid.
Even if it's a literati.
The people who shouted silently and were confused.
And all of them are no exception.
Kneeling under the myth created by technology.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Dou, who was standing on the Temple of Heaven, was finally relieved, this time he bet right, the magnificent miracle picture would indeed help him completely control everyone, at least let them not dare to have evil thoughts for the time being, and as long as he was given some time to develop slowly, then he would soon be able to truly take these people for himself, and he could quickly organize an army that obeyed him.
Even if you don't pretend to be a ghost, it doesn't matter.
It took a long time, until Zhang Dou, who was standing on the rooftop, began to speak, and the people below dared to raise their heads one by one, and at the same time looked left and right with frightened faces, looking at each other, confused.
Although they were tempted to say that they had just hallucinated, judging from the appearance of the other people around them, it was definitely not a hallucination.
That's why they're even more panicked.
is also more afraid of Zhang Dou above.
After such an operation just now, Zhang Dou, who was standing on the Temple of Heaven at this time, was no longer a human being.
It's God.
At least for now.
In the eyes of the crowd, it was.
With the end of the festival, not only did all the leaders who had originally had ideas die down.
What happened on the day of the festival also quickly spread to other areas in the surrounding area with the flow of people.
Some believe, some don't.
In any case, there were no less than a million people who saw it with their own eyes that day, and these people absolutely believed in Zhang Dou's destiny.
At this point, Anqing City, which was originally vaguely impetuous, quickly returned to stability, and Zhang Dou's personal status and authority have made a qualitative leap, and it is not an exaggeration to say a word.
But fortunately, Zhang Dou himself is still sober.
In addition, there is also Alxa, who reminds him all the time on the side, and from time to time they also confront him-for-tat and discuss some specific policy plans.
Therefore, he can still clearly realize that he is just a person, just a person who knows a little knowledge, and does not regard himself as a god.
This is undoubtedly the right development.
If he really indulges in it.
Thus he took himself as the Word of God.
Then I'm afraid it's not far from destruction.
Because of pride and complacency, the exalted will drag the most virtuous monarch into the abyss of mediocrity.
The First Emperor is like this, and the Emperor Wu is like this.
This is true of Taizong, and so is Xuanzong.
After this miracle of worshipping the heavens**, Zhang Dou's loose forces that were originally recruited through grain finally returned to their hearts, at least on the surface, and he officially started the next plan, that is, to expand the scale of farming.
That's right, continue farming.
Although his sphere of influence has now barely expanded to one-fifth of the entire northwest region, and there is plenty of food and grass, even if he continues to expand or attack other places, he can do it.
However, many forces are only on the surface, and the forces that are really completely controlled by Zhang Dou are not very large, and they still need to develop slowly.
Second, at present, almost all of the grain is provided by arbors, and the grain production and all aspects of industrial production in the part of the area they occupy need to be restored and expanded.
These issues come together.
It is destined that Zhang Dou must plant for another period of time, and he must continue to live for a while.
This kind of order is obviously quite uncomfortable for some people who want to make a meritorious career, or who are used to going out to rob and make money.
But for the vast majority of the population.
This is undoubtedly the life they want.
So on the whole, it is quite in the interests of the majority to continue farming at this time, and Zhang Dou has not reduced the cost of soldiers, so the vast majority of soldiers will not object, only occasionally one or two leaders oppose it, which is harmless at all.
The farming plan was quickly implemented.
It was a great reclamation.
Large-scale cultivation and planting.
Zhang Dou not only mobilized all the people, regardless of men, women and children, to open up the wasteland and plant together, but even the army was mobilized by him, and everyone worked hard together, but all the land that belonged to his territory, as long as it was not really impossible to plant, that is, the saline-alkali land was planted with some pasture grass to raise livestock, not to mention the sandy soil and relatively barren land.
Everyone pinned their blood and hopes for the second half of the year on these lands.
At this time, they are invincible.
Because if any warlord on the side dares to fight them at this time, not to mention the army in Zhang Dou's hands now, even those people can't spare them, so they have to take a hoe and fight with them.
After all, Zhang Dou had promised at the beginning of the planting that all land would only be subject to 10% agricultural tax, and there would be no other agricultural tax, and this was only temporary, and the agricultural tax would be reduced to one-thirtieth of the level after three years.
Therefore, if someone else calls at this time, it is robbing them of their food.
Grab their food.
That's taking their lives.
is robbing their family's life.
How can you not work hard.
