Chapter 8 Chitard’s Autobiography (Part 2)

 "So, what I have left for me is these fifty years. I, Deng Guangming, Dunluo Busalai, don't need God to give me another five hundred years. Fifty years is enough. If it doesn't work in fifty years, hurry up and take my tribesmen to move east to the Yili River Valley."

"After occupying this land, in order to prevent others from coveting, he came up with the legend that pretending to be a god and ghost, allowing Chu Huer and others to continue to cast this land outward. "

"Anyone who enters this land with my permission has made a vow to never leave. The horse thieves, bandits, criminals, etc. who are preparing to come here to catch fish in troubled waters will naturally kill them, and put their bodies on the edge of the territory to warn and intimidate those who are unknown to the truth"

"The disputes between various tribes have also been closely watched by Chu Huer and others. Since they are responsible for the heavy responsibility of taking charge of the Turkut enclaves, they can naturally patrol around on horseback, and sometimes they will come forward to resolve disputes between tribes and within, so they naturally have a good understanding of the situation of each tribe."

"Once a certain unit is excluded and desperate, since the Caspian Sea is in the east, the Black Sea is in the west, and the Turkuts are in the north, in the past, they had to rush into the Caucasus Mountains, but this was not very safe. The entire Caucasus Mountains, good places have basically been occupied."

"What's more, at this time, since Georgia and Armenia are almost destroyed, a large number of Christians were either caught by the Ottomans and Persians and sold in Istanbul, or forced to pay high tithes"

"So, a large number of Georgians and Armenians had long fled to the Caucasus mountains to hide, and there were not many places for the North Caucasus tribes to use"

"So, they had to consider Truqin, which is vast and sparsely populated and harsh environment, in the face of life and death tests, although it is notorious here, it is worth a try after all."

"In the past three years, I have joined more than a dozen small tribes, all of which are divided among the major religious sects. At this time, all those who can adhere to the beliefs of the small sects are devout believers and will not survive in the original tribe."

"They are all farmers and craftsmen. In the Turkut headquarters, there are also a large number of Nogay and Tatar craftsmen who depend on Lash, and even Georgians and Armenians who fled far away to the Volga River Basin. I asked Lash to migrate all to Truchen"

"Chu Huer and others produced iron materials blessed with manganese materials in Griya and transferred to Truqin in the name of sending them to Vitliangka. In addition, there was still coal in Truqin, which naturally laid a good foundation for our Daxing Ironworks Workshop."

"After a large number of small tribes entered, I led them to drain water and build water conservancy. Three years later, it turned this place into a large granary. This place was originally one of the largest granaries in Russia in later generations. Just like the renovated Sanjiang Plain, they were hidden in the boudoir and no one knew it."

"Once the veil is unveiled, she will be an inexhaustible treasure"

"Unlike the cold weather in the Sanjiang Plain, the climate here is undoubtedly much warmer. Winter wheat can be planted in winter, spring wheat can be planted in summer, cotton, alfalfa, vegetables, and oil can be planted. It is a treasure land given by God"

"The land here is also black soil, similar to that in Ukraine. The land is fertile. Since no one has cultivated for tens of thousands of years, the fertility of the land is enough to support farmers to cultivate continuously for hundreds of years is not a problem."

"Each farmer can own up to fifty acres of land according to his own population. Due to the implementation of two seasons of planting, each mu produces at least three stones. Before the arrival of the Nestorians of Cherks, there were nearly 1,800 farmers here. In addition to the Turkuts themselves, the total number of fields has reached 100,000 acres."

"Three stones per acre are 300,000 stones in total. They need to hand over 20% of them to me, which is 60,000 stones"

"After three thousand high-quality herders arrived, they could be nomadic between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea. Since the herders of the headquarters crossed the Manechi Lowlands to the North Caucasus from time to time, the local people would definitely not be able to tell which ones were from the headquarters and those from Truchen"

"In the third year, I had already transferred three thousand young people from the herdsmen. In the Wilat Code revised by Lash, all boys in the tribe will go to the Lama temple to serve the Lama for three years. During these three years, they naturally learned Mongolian characters."

"I originally wanted to teach them some courses in Chinese, but later I gave up. However, in the past three years, I have compiled four basic textbooks in Tot Mongolian language, covering the three major courses of reading and writing, mathematics, and science. Mathematics and science are roughly the contents before junior high school in later generations"

"On the surface, it was to avoid misunderstandings, but in fact it was my inner request. I strongly opposed the setting up of the Lama Temple in Truchen. In the end, Lash could not persuade me and had to agree"

"In the past three years, I restored the ancient city of Malga set up by the Golden Horde and built military camps and schools there. After three thousand young soldiers, one thousand were placed on the edge of the territory, one thousand were stationed in Malga, and another thousand could be dispatched at any time"

"In the past three years, I have made several more machine tools. With the support of manganese steel, although I still use manpower, I can freely use manganese steel drill bits to drill the barrel and screw out the threads on the machine tools."

"With the blessing of machine tools, these three thousand people have already installed flintlock guns. In Griya, there is a huge cave nearby. Griya means giants. The cave was originally a place where the indigenous people in the Caucasus region hide from floods. Not only can people hide, but they also produce caves."

"In that year in Griya, I asked someone to refine and process the cave nitrate and make a large amount of nitrate powder. Pyrite also appeared near Griya. Although the number is not large, as long as there are enough people, you can pick it up on the surface of the mountain."

"The locals can only use it to smel iron, but I can use one thing and two things. After simply separating the pyroferite, part of it will continue to smelting iron, and part of it will be used to distil sulfur, so I also have sulfur used to make black gunpowder."

"After arriving at Truchen, with a large number of farmers and herders coming, in addition to continuing to refine nitrate, sulfur and produce iron in Griya, they also use the feces of human animals to pile up large areas of nitrate. Otherwise, the nitrate powder used for black gunpowder of 3,000 people would not be satisfied."

"In addition to the tribes north of the Caucasus Mountains, Chu Hur also attracted some mountain tribes, especially the Georgians and Armenians there. Their ancestors were once subjects of the Ottoman Empire, and in the Ottoman Empire, from the seventeenth century to the present, the rulers included southern and eastern Europe."

"They also have talents who make glass. At this time, European countries will make glass and telescopes in large quantities. Astrakhan, Moscow, and St. Petersburg have glass on windows of medium-sized and above families. Therefore, there are many craftsmen who can make glass"

"The Ottomans are not as eccentric as the Southern Europeans, but allow them to develop within the country. Among the Georgians who defected to me, there happened to be someone who has seen how to make glass, but they still have a distance to actually make it."

"Fortunately, I, a later generation, came from an engineering student. After three years of repeated trials, I finally mastered the technology of making glass and even telescopes"

"With these, I started to make artillery. I was a major in mining and smelting machinery in my later generations. I just knew how to extract manganese ore and add it to the best ratio. After repeated exploration, I obtained the technology of smelting manganese steel"

"Although it is still much worse than later generations, it will take half a century for manganese ore to be known to the world. After I discovered it in advance, it has become my unique secret skill and one of the few things I can rely on"

"With manganese steel, I can develop a cannon with a lighter portion, but the effect is the same or even more than that. After weighing it over and over again, I chose a light short-barrel cannon. The heaviest one is only five hundred kilograms, the body of the cannon is only three hundred kilograms, and the cannon stand is two hundred kilograms"

"Although these things are there, the European countries are still not enough to see them at this time. Not to mention European countries, even in front of Persians and Ottomans"

"At this time, Tsarist Russia set up a legion in Astrakhan, Zaporoze, Taritzin and Orenburg, all of which were organized by brigades, with flintlock rifles and heavy artillery all equipped in large quantities, and there were also Cossack cavalry that were summoned. In Zaporoze, its legion commander was the famous general Rumentsev in history"

"Rumensev's status in Russian history is just like Wei Qinghuo Qubing's position in China. You can imagine his strength. Another general, Suvorov, is still just a second lieutenant serving in Astrakhan, but he has begun to make his mark."

"They are all military strategists of the 18th century European flintlock rifles and extremely excellent strategic and tactical masters in the bronze cannon era. How easy is it to win in front of these two people?"

"What's more, the Russian Tsar was Elizabeth at this time. If Peter the Great established the national power of Tsarist Russia, then Elizabeth was the one who established the Tsarist Russian political system, and Elizabeth's Emperor Caterina after Elizabeth was even stronger than Peter the Great"

"In Persia, the Turkic emperor Nadirsha was a rare military strategist in Persian history. His several major battles with the Ottoman Empire were shocked and the last Alexander was called by Europeans. He once attacked the capital of the Mughal Empire for a long distance, looted all his wealth, and slaughtered the city of Delhi. More than 200,000 Indians were killed"

"He stole the Peacock throne and the huge mountain of light diamonds of the Mughal Kingdom. The wealth he stole was enough to prevent the entire Persia from being taxed for three years. Although he did not rule for a long time, the army and warfare he founded would still be inherited by later generations"

"As for the Ottoman Empire, it still occupies Europe, Asia, and Africa, with a large population and wealth. Although the army has lagged behind Europe and Persia, its huge strength cannot be provoked by itself at will. Moreover, his navy can still stabilize the Adriatic, Aegean, and Black Sea areas"
