Magar City, one of the trading strongholds built by the Golden Horde to travel to and from the Ilkhanate, was later destroyed by war. After the rise of Truqin, Kitard redesigned and built the city on the basis of the previous site.

Perhaps it is the Mongolians' obsession with round tents, or perhaps their yearning for the sky. The old city wall is round and made of rammed earth. The wall is about one foot high and the average width is about two meters.

Based on the self-confidence of the Mongols in themselves at that time, even if they were killed, they would not believe that their rule could only last for a short period of time, because in the cold weapon era, they had a large number of cavalry and the only firearm bonus in the world.

The eternal dream is not only owned by Qin Shihuang, they also have it.

Therefore, the cities built were only used to deal with the conquered minority rebels of foreign ethnic groups or the groups of horse thieves and bandits at that time.

The weapons of these people are crude and will not have much impact on their rule.

What they did not expect was that a tribe without its own complete religious system and cultural system would never last long and would eventually be assimilated into the tide of the Islamic world.

They are not as good as the Aryans earlier, who knew how to devise a caste system to maintain their rule when they invaded India.

When Kitard reoccupied this place, he must have been uneasy at first. With the idea of ​​taking it one step at a time, he simply rebuilt the city with adobe walls popular in Central Asia, without spending much effort.

After he had 3,000 men under his command, as well as a certain number of farmers and herders, and defeated the Ottomans and Chechens in the Battle of Chushan, he realized that he had been too cautious before.

However, since he still relies on highly mobile cavalry, it is not the way to start a business if he relies solely on cavalry for defense. Therefore, although he has great strength, he still maintains the same attitude towards this city.

The circumference is about five miles, and the center of the circle is divided into eight fan-shaped blocks by eight straight lines. This is naturally the result of the Golden Horde's previous practice in Baghdad, and Kitard continued to use this practice after its reconstruction.

The circular earth city with a circumference of five miles has a total area of ​​500,000 square meters. The previous drainage and water collection facilities are complete, which can be dredged and repaired. There are eight fan-shaped blocks, each with an area of ​​more than 60,000 square meters.

meters, it can theoretically house about 5,000 people.

After Kitard took over, he used the circular castle of the former judge (Darukachi) at the center of the circle as his residence and office.

Workshops have been built in the two southwest sectors close to the perennial westerly wind. They are mainly iron workshops, fur workshops, and weaving workshops, mixed with wood workshops, and oil workshops are also other workshops.

The two southwest sectors are military camps, where Armenian, Georgian, and Alan young soldiers have been training for less than half a year.

The two northeastern sectors are residential areas, and the northwest two sectors are designated for schools, hospitals, commercial streets, etc.

With an army of up to 8,000 men, Kitard pulled all the hussars, all composed of Mongolians, to the newly built military camp outside the city, and built a large horse farm in the military camp, where they could both train and train.

Horses can also be used for cavalry training.

After all the five thousand cavalry are gathered, they can be pulled out of the military camp and trained on the vast grassland outside.

The military camp in the city was given to the new recruits who had just been classified as dragoons by Chitard. Of course, just in case, he also mixed some of the original three thousand cavalry into the new barracks, and then moved the new barracks to the new barracks.

Some Armenians (mainly Raphael's direct tribe) who were already good at riding mixed into the hussar battalion.

Then mix the Turghuts and Heshuotes, so that after a period of training, this army can be used with maximum efficiency.

Magar City could originally house up to 40,000 people, but now it has less than 20,000 people, with soldiers, craftsmen and their families accounting for more than half.

The school built by Kitard adopted an elite system. With his dormant thoughts and financial resources at the beginning, it was impossible for all the school-age children in Truqin to be included in the study, and he could only select those who were smarter.

The two schools, the boys' school enrolls 300 students every year and the girls' school enrolls 100 students every year, were originally taught in Mongolian. But now that there are suddenly a large number of Christian children, this can no longer be done.

Fortunately, the Turkic language is very popular in the North Caucasus, and both adults and children can understand it. Therefore, Kitard and the others could only teach it again in Turkic language, and the language was chosen Chinese.

There is no way around this. Chinese, as a language with a long history and heritage and a large number of books that complement each other, can maintain its cultural independence. Mongolian obviously does not have this advantage.

In Truchin, Kitard was both Huntaiji and the founder. The machine tools he built himself and the technology of adding strong materials to iron materials raised the metal smelting technology in the entire Caucasus region to a higher level.

It has built Truqin into a potentially powerful force, and its prestige in Truqin is unparalleled for a while.

If he didn't have these, he could only secretly recharge his batteries, and when the time was right, he would replace Wobasi and lead his people to the Ili area.

Without these, he probably wouldn't even be able to defeat the Azerbaijani Khanate, which has mastered the wootz steel smelting technology, let alone the three major forces.

Therefore, when Kitard went all out to promote something, there was almost no objection from his subordinates.

In other respects, apart from paying taxes and enrolling selected children in schools and military camps, Truqin hardly interferes in the internal affairs of each tribe, which is great for each ministry.

As for why he included girls in schools, it was naturally because the population he could control was too small. Men had to be put into workshops and the army, so there were naturally fewer available for administration. Some women were used to replace men in tasks such as accounting.

Statistics, medical care and other services, thus liberating men is his plan.

Of course, all this has just begun, and it will take several years to achieve obvious results.

However, even the Ottomans realized that using white children as personal servants and soldiers diluted their original tribal affiliation and religious beliefs. How could Kitard, as a later time traveler, not understand this?

During the month of waiting for the autumn harvest, Kitard traveled between the school and the military camp without a moment of leisure.

On this day, he came to the military camp in the city.

On the campus, some people were training equestrianism, others were practicing formation, and others were training muskets, artillery, and grenades. The entire campus was bustling with activity. For all this, Kitard was very relieved and let Chuhu'er and Tiechi go.

Just take the two of them and do it.

Some people are learning to read and write in the barracks under the leadership of the squad leader.

The squad leader was selected from the previous three thousand cavalry. They were all Mongolians. Their cavalry fighting skills may not be as good as others, but they were not necessarily inferior in study. Chitard selected them to join the dragoons.

camp, all became squad leaders.

When Kitard made them squad leaders, it was not just to use their qualities to lead the troops in the war, but more importantly to teach the new Christian teenagers how to read and write in Chinese.

The autumn in the North Caucasus was already a bit cool. Kitard quietly walked into a barracks - there were 300 barracks in two sectors, which were planned according to one class. The reason for this arrangement was that it was based on the current situation in Mongolia.

A young man’s ability is considered good if he can teach ten people.

Any more would be beyond their capabilities.

Through the glass window, I saw a 17 or 18-year-old Mongolian boy who was struggling to teach the three words "upper, middle and lower" with charcoal on a white board in half-baked Turkic language. Although those Christian teenagers knew a little about Turkic.

Although it is difficult to understand the language, it is obviously hard to be familiar with it, so it is also confused and unclear.

But if it is taught in Mongolian, the effect is still the same. Therefore, although it is so difficult, Kitard still tries his best to implement it against all opinions.

As for which Chinese characters to use, Kitard did not hesitate to choose simplified characters. Even simplified characters were difficult to learn, let alone traditional Chinese characters?

In another barracks, the squad leader is teaching arithmetic. For this, the Christian teenagers learn very quickly. For the teenagers in the military camp, Kitard does not have high requirements. They only need to learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. As for artillery, he will teach it himself.

.

What's more, it's already the 18th century, and running mirrors and rulers have long been popular in Europe. Naturally, Kitard followed the same method. The current Kitard is naturally not as good as those European scientists who are known as mathematicians, but he is obviously

He knows the most about natural sciences.

Those who know the most, whether they have religious or scholastic views, are naturally the most suitable in promoting education.

Kitard did not hold out much hope that these children from various tribes would be able to accept this knowledge at once. It would be good if one or two graduates from each class could graduate. As time went by, he believed that there would be more and more.

After inspecting the military camp, he came to the girls' school.

The teachers at the girls' school were all personally taught by the outstanding ones selected from the shepherd's daughters after Kitard came to Truqin. There were only ten people in total. The girls' school had only been open for one year and there were only one hundred students. No,

There are currently one hundred and thirty people, 28 of whom are from Christian girls.

There are two other people, one is of course Abahai, and the other is Turandot who just escaped from that environment.

The girls are also divided into ten classes, with more than ten people in each class, and each teacher leads a class.

He saw Abahai, a thin and melancholy girl who was listening to the teacher's teachings attentively. She did not notice Kitard's handsome face appearing on the glass window.

As for Turandot, who was in the last class, she was someone who had been in that kind of environment after all. Turandot was obviously not as able to concentrate as Abahai, and instead was a little absent-minded.

She immediately saw Kitard.

However, she did not show joy, but cheered up again.

Kitard could clearly see that there was a trace of tears on her face.
