Liu Qiu.

More than 100,000 mountain sects surrendered, and the scene was indeed quite spectacular.

Thousands of leaders, including the heads of the village, were lined up to swear allegiance to Zhang Jing. Zhang Chao sat aside and watched the lively scene, and Li Shimin came again today.

He sat next to Zhang Chao and watched all this, calmly.

"For more than ten years, Liuqiu is a wild land, and it has been managed by your Zhang family into a treasure pot. It's amazing." Li Shimin sighed. "Wen Yuan, do you think I'm going to America, can I run Liuqiu as smoothly as the Zhang family?"

Zhang Chao shook his head.

He told the Supreme Emperor directly that he would not.

"To be honest, the Zhang family invested a lot of money. But the most critical reason is that it is very close to Zhongyuan. It is only 200 miles of Strait, and it can be traveled back and forth in a day."

"It is easy to enjoy the cool air with big trees on your back. Liu Que is able to rely on the Central Plains to achieve today's development. With the Central Plains, a large number of Han people moved here. We built ports, docks, castles, and villages here. In the early stage, we transported people, used bricks, cement, livestock, farming tools, etc., and basically all of them were transported from the Central Plains."

"After we reclaimed the place, the surplus grain, processed sugar, and even the purchased deer-skin herbs, the sulfur, gold, coal, iron and other mined can be quickly transported back to the Central Plains to cash in."

America is different.

It is amazing to be able to travel back and forth once a year, and there is only a limit on the number of ships to go back and forth. If you encounter a storm or something, you may have to travel once every two years.

How many things can you transport each time?

Li Shimin brought a lot of population, livestock and supplies this time, but he could only rely on these things to operate and develop for a long time.

To put it bluntly, if Li Shimin encounters a plague or something on the Jinshan Peninsula, if they don’t find a suitable prescription and medicinal material to treat it, then they can’t wait to find medicine from the Central Plains and they might be wiped out.

In history, the British colonized North America first, and even died in eight thousand people that passed by the first ten thousand people.

If it weren't for the chaos in Europe at that time, many people wanted to escape and started again in the New World. After a series of successive efforts, the American colonization would have stopped long ago.

The North American place is actually not particularly good.

Although the eastern plains and the Great Lakes are fertile, the climate is easy to change because of the lack of large mountains in that place, and there are many weather disasters. Sudden cold air cooling, wind disasters, etc., for colonists who were just starting to operate, this is a very unbearable disaster, and they will be destroyed if they are not careful.

After all, North America is not as good as Liu Qiu. The Zhang family developed Liu Qiu and everything could be transported from the Central Plains in the early stage. But in North America, if there is a disaster and no harvest, they will even fill their stomachs.

It was quite difficult to transport grain from the Central Plains.

Not to mention, there are so many Indians who are also threatening at any time.

In the past few days, let alone colonizing North America, even in history, the Tang Dynasty managed the Western Regions. In the early and mid-Tang Dynasty, hundreds of thousands of people were immigrated to the Western Regions, known as the Long March athlete, and only those who spent a lot of material resources could barely gain a foothold.

But when the Anshi Rebellion in the Central Plains was apart, after the imperial army withdrew, the remaining pioneers of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty were quickly destroyed by the Huhus in the Western Regions after they cut off the support of the Central Plains.

Going to America is a bet on fate.

Zhang Chao hopes that Li Shimin's fate is better and hopes that he can build a landing stronghold for the Tang Dynasty.

"A variety of potatoes, corn and sweet potatoes!" Zhang Chao advised the Supreme Emperor.

Although potato, corn, sweet potato crops are American crops, they are actually products of South America or Central America. With Zhang Chao's guidance, it took a lot of time to find these treasures.

North America should not be available yet.

Since these crops are American crops, they should be more adaptable in North America. Compared with wheat, rice, and other wheat, potato and corn, they are definitely better grown and have higher yields.

"Build farming, livestock stands for your feet."

As long as the Yin people did not invade first, Zhang Chao suggested that Li Shimin should not be anxious to conquer and kill all directions, and the Yin people surrendered one after another.

The Zhang family has been operating Liuqiu for so many years, and the Raptors crossed the river, but at the beginning they still traded with Shanyi first.

"I suggest that Your Majesty should first cultivate animal husbandry and build a stronghold when you arrive in Jinshan. At least you must first establish a foothold and adapt to the situation there. If you have the opportunity, make friends with the Yin people first and trade them. Use silk, cloth, but exchange them for their fur and jerky, etc. to establish a transaction relationship, and make a few indigenous friends first."

Li Shimin thought about it seriously and felt that even though he did this, he would lose his demeanor and identity as the Emperor of Tang. However, he was far away in the Americas and was indeed a little isolated and helpless.

"Thank you for your advice."

Li Shimin said thank you very much to Zhang Chao.

"This is just my duty."

"The Golden Mountain Plain of America is a good place for development and a place of heaven. If Your Majesty establishes a country through farming and war, you will be able to become strong."

When we arrived in America, we were farming and fighting, and the whole people were soldiers and adopted the peasant army system. This was inevitable. After all, Li Shimin had so few people, so it was not realistic to establish a standing army alone.

A young man works farming in daily life and fights in wartime. If he makes meritorious service, he will give land and land. I believe everyone's enthusiasm will be very high.

During the Warring States Period, Qin was originally located in a corner and was considered weak. But in the end, relying on the system of farming and fighting, he defeated the six countries and unified the world.

The Qin State's farming and warfare and military merit system were actually somewhat similar to the nomadic peoples.

Nomads usually live by the herdsmen, pursuing water and grass, herding cattle and sheep. Once they are in war, they are recruited and sent troops to bring their own dry food and weapons. Anyway, they have no food and salary when they are in war, and they rely entirely on looting and sharing of spoils.

Therefore, the battle is more tenacious and the enthusiasm for fighting is very high.

Zhang Chao suggested that Li Shimin also implement this system in the Americas, and when he goes there, he will implement the equal-field system and the military system of the government.

"The equal-field system and the government system?" Li Shimin frowned.

This set has been eliminated in the Central Plains, and it is Zhang Chao who is currently in front of him who is still asking him to implement this set in America?

"Your Majesty, the system is not good or bad, but the actual conditions must be considered. Your Majesty goes to America, where there are vast land and lots of land, so there is sufficient conditions for equalization of land. Because of the small population, there is no need to build a standing army and directly integrate peasants and soldiers."

Give them equal land, and then rent them to serve.

Li Shimin wanted to build castles, build armour, etc., and he could also call his people to serve labor during the slack season every year. According to the system, each person had free labor for twenty days every year.

In America, the implementation of the equal-field system and the military system can be said to have the best conditions.

First, divide the land and give land to the war. After the war, the land and land will be given to the soldiers who have made meritorious service. Even officials can give land directly without paying salaries. Even the yamen does not have to pay office funds, but to the public.

If a school is established, it will be directly given to the school.

All can be solved by field.

The court does not have to collect any coins or impose physical taxes. People will collect whatever they plant and raise.

How good is the treasury full?

Gold, silver, coins and other things should be regarded as rewards to the heroes.

The self-sufficient classical agricultural society is even the most perfect state in the eyes of many Confucian scholars in the Central Plains.

These suggestions given by Zhang Chao are very sincere.

He hopes that Li Shimin can gain a foothold in America and hopes that he can open up a world there.

"I have won hundreds of thousands of Shanyi at once. This time, the Zhang family made a lot of money. I sent 20,000 troops and obtained hundreds of thousands of Shanyi people. With such a huge gain, how about giving me a population of 8,000?" Li Shimin beat a snake and followed the stick and made a shameless request.

Zhang Chao was stunned for a moment.

"Of course, it's okay, but I'm afraid I won't get so many ships for a while."

"Every boat can stuff more points, and even stuff it onto the boat carrying livestock. There are so many boats, so it should be no problem to stuff tens of thousands of people, right?" Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Ten thousand people will definitely not be able to get stuffed."

For the fleet to America, the large ships only had more than 500 people, and the small ships only had about 100 people. Even if it was a large world-class ship, it would take twenty.

"Squeeze, you're from the head office." Li Shimin bargained.

"Your Majesty, even if you can squeeze more people, these people need to eat, drink, food, and fresh water."

"Eat less, these people are not noble people. You can cut the food and water in half, and put more people in the cabin."

"When sailing at sea, especially long-distance ocean navigation, the people in the cabin are prone to illness."

"Just throw it off the boat when you are sick." Li Shimin heard Zhang Chao's words just now and felt that survival in the Americas was really not as easy as imagined. He felt that he was short of people.

Instead of thinking about attacking and capturing Yin people in America, it is better to bring more people to you first.

"Thirteen thousand, this has almost increased by one hundred, and the fleet load has increased a lot. If there are more, it will endanger the fleet."

"Okay, three thousand is only three thousand, but it's best to have families, and most of them are young and strong." Such a mountain Yi must be more stable.

The leaders of Shanyi knelt down with fear and trepidation to Zhang Jing and swore allegiance to him. Zhang Jing also promised them that he would treat them well.

·······

Trust, under Tennessah City.

The rain continued to rain. Although the camp outside the city had dug drains, water was still accumulated everywhere. In this way, not to mention that the cannons transported from the rear were useless, they could not even make fires and cook in the camp.

Even dry firewood can't be found, and even the soldiers' clothes are trendy.

"This battle cannot be fought. The guards in Tenisha City are more tenacious than we have encountered before. As expected, they are the imperial guards who followed King Jie Ri to fight in the east and west. These guys are very fierce."

Wang Xuance frowned.

“The rain will always stop.”

"But our food is probably not going to be able to support that time. In this weather, there are floods everywhere. Many roads are flooded, and the roads are soaked into mud, so the food cannot be transported at all."

This time, we fought all the way and went deep into the enemy's territory. Before we could get a military station, we didn't recruit much food on site, so we were transported too far from the rear.

Many generals proposed to retreat temporarily and come back after the rainy season.

After all, the army is now deeply in the enemy's territory, and it is difficult to supply food and weapons, and the city of Tennessa is difficult to get out, so King Jie Ri is leading the army to come again.

The coalition forces are still a bit dangerous.

Wang Xuance felt that it seemed that he could only withdraw first.

"Report!"

A personal soldier came in, "Hanjing urgently wrote."

After reading it, Wang Xuance sneered a few times.

The emperor issued an order to ask Wang Xuance to step up his capture of Tanisha, and promised that if he captured Tanisha, he would exchange his fief from Gandhara to Tanisha and promote him to the title of Prince of Tanisha.

Prince of Tenisha.

Become the king.
