The year 1342 was a wonderful year for Cheng Pan, as the amount of food produced in the territory increased, the reputation of wealth began to spread, and the wanderers around the county began to converge under Cheng Pan's rule. After these people arrived at the territory, their original intention was to beg for food, and Cheng Pan would not watch these laborers make dung idly in vain. The purification camp was quickly established and expanded, and a different kind of agricultural organization from the commune began to take shape. The collective farm, a historical transitional organization, took the stage. Cheng Pan stipulated that every new immigrant could only work in the collective farm for three years, and after three years, the land would be divided according to the division of work. When it comes to their own vital interests, the Chinese will never skimp on their own sweat. Collective farms were efficient, and literacy was also a way to increase the share of work. In the summer of 1342, ten steam tractors were officially put into use on the farm, this huge steel monster, made a huge noise, constantly spewing black smoke and white gas in the field, he was infinitely powerful, and the farming efficiency of one steam tractor could be compared to that of twenty oxen. This kind of tractor still has various disadvantages, such as changing pistons, stopping and replacing them after an average of one hour of operation, and each time it takes at least 2o minutes. But the migrants were still amazed by the work of the tractors.

The emigrants saw these giant iron oxen, obediently ploughing the fields under the envoys of the knights (on each tractor sat the driver). The first reaction was to kneel, in their limited cognition, the tractor that kept screaming and spitting black smoke and steam corresponded to the legendary monster, and after the explanation of the militia team's shouting and scolding, they all learned that these iron bulls were built by those reincarnated masters of the machinery factory and specially farmed. The militiamen explained to the immigrants with a flying eyebrows and a sense of superiority in their tones. In fact, when they saw the tractor for the first time a few days ago, the shock in their hearts was not much better than that of the immigrants in front of them.

After the explanation, the immigrants stood up and looked at the tractor-driver with adoration. Then a message made the immigrants boil. The people who drove the tractor this time were all from the machine shop. They won't stay here for long, and this time they came mainly to teach some people to drive simple maintenance tractors. And those who learn to drive a tractor will overturn their work while driving the tractor to plough the land. Cents were now hard currency on collective farms. The work can be exchanged for huàn land after three years, and as long as a man in the prime of life works hard for three years, 2o acres of land can be obtained. Of course, if you work hard, you can earn 3o acres. After 30 acres, it cannot be replaced, but the extra work is also useful, and all kinds of fine iron utensils can be exchanged. And those who learn to maintain and drive tractors must be literate. Once again, the immigrants realized the importance of knowledge in their territories.

The use of steam tractors gradually spread in the territory, saving a lot of money on the purchase of cattle. Moreover, the research and development of new wooden pistons has begun, and the latest is that the hardwood from the north can be treated with tung oil to produce durable pistons. Cheng Pan couldn't help but sigh that the ancient Chinese carpenters really understood the nature of wood. After learning about the excellent performance of the tractor, the council in the territory questioned Cheng Pan and the administrative team for the first time. The agricultural deputies, who made up half of the parliament, expressed their dissatisfaction with the fact that the administrative group gave priority to the use of the tractor, an excellent tool of production, on the collective farms. Cautious peasant representatives, after being familiar with their own rights, are very sensitive to the interests of the strata they represent. After some separate bargaining, a compromise was reached between the administrative group and the agricultural representatives, whereby a commune with a literacy rate of 1oo per cent could send a place to learn to drive and maintain a tractor, and a commune could expand the commune's cultivated land as it saw fit, if it applied for the use of a tractor. The administrative team explained that illiterate people were incapable of learning to drive the new product of the tractor. In the commune, strength had always been the hallmark of strength, and a strong crop meant being able to work, and literacy was a task assigned from above. The peasants, who have their own little abacus in their hearts, have always disagreed. The commune has always had the lowest literacy rate in the territory, and the commune with a literacy rate of 1oo% is definitely rare. When the agricultural representatives got this result, they could be regarded as giving an explanation to the village elders.

Although this steam-powered tractor is huge and powerful compared to the tractors running in rural China in the 21st century, it represents the highest technology of this era, and its manufacture requires special technologies such as steelmaking technology, water conservancy machine tools, and electricity. A large number of skilled craftsmen cut little by little. Up to two units can be produced per month. Cheng Pan also wants the kind of production method of manufacturing parts one by one and assembling them in a streamlined manner. This is a delusion, and the production of tractors will be completely stuck, if the steel production in the territory can be qualified to produce steam engines every month. Streamlining operation, just those two drops of water, no one can play with flowers.

Most of the collective farms still open up the fields in a primitive way, with the beggars as the leader, and the big brother eats the dead dogs for the purpose, and in fact, the activity of sending people to Cheng Pan has been going on. The capacity of the territory for labor is gradually saturated. The grain output of farmland has been limited by the area of cultivated land, there are only two ways to break this deadlock, one is industrial nitrogen fixation synthetic fertilizer, this idea in Cheng Pan's mind flashed past, just kidding, synthetic ammonia technology not to mention anything else, a single qualified quality cylinder in the 21st century are stuck in many countries. The original time and space China was only in the seventies and eighties after mastering the process of manufacturing submarine hulls before a large number of synthetic ammonia industry, Cheng Pan looked at his primitive workshop industry directly pass, people can have dreams, not delusions. Then there is only the second method, which is expansion. If you don't expand, you will suffocate at home. Cheng Pan feels that his current situation is a bit similar to Japan in World War II, both of which have reached the point of having to fight due to economic problems. And the opponents provoked are very powerful.

In the autumn of 1342 AD, Cheng Pan looked at the map and pondered for a long time, and finally began to expand. After the completion of the autumn harvest in the territory, the militia in various places were mobilized to the local militia. Cheng Pan told the representatives of the territory about the importance of land grabbing and coveted the land of the border landlords in the western counties. The delegates expressed their approval. It has to be said that when a crime is not punished, there will definitely be a second time, driven by profits. Mo Rigen, the supreme governor of Huainan West Road, did not strike at Cheng Pan's first expansion, causing the people in the territory to have a bandit mentality towards the territory outside the territory. For farmland outside the territory, since it is okay to grab the first time, it is not a big deal to grab the second time.

Originally, Cheng Pan was worried that the mobilization order would not be effective, and he also issued such a policy. That is, the land obtained by participating in the fight against local tyrants this time was cultivated by collective farms, and 30 percent of the grain produced each year was distributed to the participants according to the size of their military merits, which lasted for three years. As a result, in this one-sided propaganda, the scene of militia recruitment is really hot. All ignored the reaction of the Yuan government in doing so.

This time, Cheng Pan recruited 2oooo militia at once, if it weren't for Cheng Pan's consideration of the importance of rural defense, this number would have doubled, these militias were formed into 5 legions, each legion was equipped with spears, uniformly dressed in reeds and iron plates installed on the chest, protective vests, and hats of the same material on their heads. Each regiment was armed with ten one-piece guns, and a trebuchet. After preliminary training, they can line up neatly and skillfully put on a horse-rejecting formation. Of course, the all-firearms village guards drew out the officers who commanded the militia and formed a separate regiment of two thousand people, armed with 4o guns.

In order to form such a force, Cheng Pan drained his family. Bring all the gunpowder. All kinds of grain, grass and military supplies are fully equipped. With such a force, if Cheng Pan lets it go, he can fight the territory of the heyday of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom within half a year. If you look at the strength of the peasant rebellion at the end of the Yuan Dynasty in the original time and space, it is also the first.

Cheng Pan looked at the army he had formed, and there was a trace of pride in his heart. But a cool breeze blew, and Cheng Pan immediately calmed down. clarified his goal, this time it was to copy the local tyrant's family, not to take the lead in rebellion. The rebellion was not fully prepared, and this operation was really unravelable at home, and the conflict with external forces was purely unavoidable.
