Chapter 114: Collecting the 50 North American States

"So, what is Mr. Jiang's method to combat the Little Ice Age?"

Zhu Gaoxu asked with respect.

In his opinion, Mr. Jiang's words are the general trend in the next hundreds of years, and the disasters that have befallen all living beings can be resolved in just a few words.

They are simply like those ancient military advisors with magical powers in the storybooks.

Mysterious and powerful.

Li Jinglong also looked forward to it.

It was precisely because he understood the nature of wind and water through Jiang Xinghuo's words, and understood the terrifying impact of precipitation lines on farming civilization, that Li Jinglong became even more fearful.

Those who don’t know are fearless.

If it weren't for Jiang Xinghuo's words, Li Jinglong would definitely not believe it if he just told him what would happen if he lost three inches of rain every year.

But now, Li Jinglong knows very well that three inches of rain can mean the difference between life and death for the cultivated land in the north!

As for why the locals did not develop a huge empire during the agricultural era, it was limited by two strange local factors.

The two looked at each other, and Mr. Jiang said loudly: "You must listen to the next plan first!"

You Houyi and Zhu Gaoxu both nodded.

Zhu Gaoxu thought for a moment before rejecting You Houyi's statement.

First of all, the North American continent is surrounded by oceans on its east and west sides, which is conducive to the development of trade and transportation. Inland, there is no water system running through the north and south, which is extremely convenient for irrigation. There are also seven small lakes that account for 70% of the world's fresh water reserves. Precipitation comes from the southeast.

It decreases toward the northwest, and the moisture conditions are worse.

Zhu Gaoxu frowned and was silent for a long time, then suddenly raised his head and said: "If the natural endowment of the new land is so superior, opening up the new land is a feasible way. But after you, China has always settled down and relocated, how could no one abandon their homes?

Is it that you have to go thousands of miles away to find a life in a new land?"

First, let’s discuss the feasibility and specific steps of immigrating from Xiaoming to America.

When returning to Xiaoming from North America, ships should avoid typhoons and high pressure in the northwest Pacific as much as possible. The route does not change in two ways. It fluctuates with the seasons, especially moving northward in summer and southward in winter to avoid north.

Sea fog and storm in the Pacific Ocean.

As the saying goes, "How can my daughter bring Wu Gou to the seventy states in North America?"

After all...it's really hard to talk about things like natural disasters.

"When Xiao Ming reaches the time period of the next hundred years, his country will definitely be strong and his population will be small. Even if it is true as Gao and Gao Yu said, people who want to immigrate to the sea will flock to it, but the new land has nothing else."

Unfortunately, the North American continent does not have the same.

The reason why many scholars recognize the relationship between the ancients of the Shang Dynasty and the Indians is that the cultural relics unearthed there are slightly similar to various ancient cultural relics in China, such as pottery pots, oracle bone inscriptions, etc. And according to records, the Indians

There are also many similarities in habits between people and the Shang Dynasty. For example, the figures kneeling and sitting on stone statues cannot prove this.

Li Jinglong continued: "The local people will definitely choose to kill them all."

That's not the point of education the day before yesterday.

Li Jinglong said hurriedly: "You can't guarantee that the farming conditions in that new land will be better than the conditions that Xiao Ming has now. There are vast plains in the central part and a river system that runs from north to south. It also rains and cools at the same time.

Easy to farm.”

"The last resort, as the least effective solution, is actually the most complicated."

In order to uncover the Indian civilization, Li Jinglong's later generations of scientists made few assumptions, among which "the Yin people's eastward journey" was the main one, which was a hypothesis about the origin of the Indians in North America. Li Jinglong can guarantee whether it is correct, but in the end

At least it's really not possible.

The ones who were educated were two students who had poor education in ancient times (although no one was willing to learn), had rich experience in traveling around the country (cutting people from the north/escaping to the south), and had participated in practical work (killing people and commanding people to kill).

Li Jinglong believes that this problem can be solved for a while only by increasing agricultural production, but it cannot be solved forever.

Li Jinglong smiled and said: "Of course I haven't considered those issues. Let's talk about the previous point first. In fact, Xiao Ming doesn't have to worry about the cultivated land in his hometown, because he can't imagine it. First of all, the contradiction between man and land always exists.

The question is, is he worried about the speed at which people in Xiaoming are giving birth to babies? As long as there is no land to plant crops, a few people can give birth freely."

In reality, the new land Li Jinglong mentioned was naturally not the American continent.

The land itself of the North American continent is not a valuable treasure that any country would be extremely coveted. The environment is so superior that it is unparalleled throughout the world.

"There will be no brave man above a great reward."

Zhu Gaoxu asked a series of questions.

Li Jinglong's statement is the theory of "Yin people's eastward journey" seen in later generations.

Li Jinglong was speechless for a moment, and You Houyi was not embarrassed at all. It makes sense, and the bad image does make sense.

Are there any native small mammals in North America that were used for transportation or to assist with farming before they were domesticated?

After all, life is too short, and the life experiences and experiences a person can acquire are also based on the current era.

But Zhu Gaoxu still shook his head: "The method mentioned by Jiang Xinghuo can be regarded as a bad way to fight against the future ice age. It is too time-consuming and energy-consuming. It will probably take more than ten to seventy years to initially take effect, and

The investment is huge, but if there is determination from the court and the efforts of one or two generations, I'm afraid it can be done."

But Li Jinglong does not play the role of an educator.

Li Jinglong’s words made Zhu Gaoxu and Mr. Jiang even more curious. It was then that we remembered that we were only focusing on discussing the possibility of immigrating to the new continent and had forgotten to ask where the new continent was. We asked almost in unison.

.

After listening to Li Jinglong's explanation, Zhu Gaoxu felt slightly relieved.

This group of ancient people who stand at the top of the social pyramid are of course not stupider than modern people, but there are some things that are difficult for me to understand and have never seen before. It is as if there is not a thick layer of dark clouds that cannot be seen through that blocks the truth, so

I just thought it was possible.

After hearing this, Mr. Jiang nodded repeatedly and glanced at Zhu Gaoxu with disapproval.

It would be a bad idea if there were no transportation and mounts, but it would be more difficult to walk, but if there were no farming assistants such as oxen and horses, the technology tree of "Iron Plow and Oxen Plowing" would be chosen. The North American natives could only stay in the most primitive state for generations.

The slash-and-burn stage.

"Where is the new continent? Why did You Houyi say that it could not be the ancestors of the Chinese ancestors?"

Li Jinglong recovered his thoughts and said.

"In that case, once the large-scale immigration is over, it may be difficult to accumulate enough resources for the successors. Before the small-scale immigration passes, if they can be self-sufficient through farming in the first few years, such a small number of people,

How to obtain enough food, clothing and other basic supplies? It will always make us starve to death. In addition, it must be true

Continued before a small number of immigrants arrive, what will happen to Xiao Ming’s local cultivated land? He still needs to arrange manpower to maintain farming. It would be bad if the immigrants are all land-owning people, but if there is really no profit, there will be a lot of landless people.

People will also sell their land and leave. What will happen when Xiao Ming’s local food is not enough? Those jobs are huge and small projects!”

——That’s not the point of small geographical discoveries!

"It's very far." Li Jinglong nodded and denied, "But the sea is the same as the land. If you have enough supplies, you can arrive in a few months with the wind, and you can take another sea route back, which is also with the wind.

."

That fellow is truly a sage on paper. How about his practical ability? At least when he talks about military affairs on paper, what he talks about is clear and logical. You Houyi doesn’t think he is at that level.

Li Jinglong said that with the heart of a holy mother.

Then, Li Jinglong gave a brief outline of the route.

"It doesn't matter whether it is the worst policy, the middle policy, or the best policy. All the discussions and imagination you have done are very likely to be things that will happen in reality, so only discussing the operational rationality of the countermeasure itself is a discussion on being Xiao Ming.

In terms of the political environment, whether it can really be realized in the future."

Of course, that is only a prerequisite. The most important thing is that the Indians are indeed compatible with the Han people under various conditions. They must be Kunlun slaves. Li Jinglong will naturally make a complete decision.

Opposite proposal.

As for corn, it wasn’t until Xiao Ming’s time that the North American natives planted corn on the east coast, which was briefly suitable for summer growth.

As for these two factors, Xiao Ming can solve them no matter what happens.

Li Jinglong nodded and said.

Since it is a free discussion, this of course implies that the political environment allows that kind of policy to occur.

Let alone anything that can be done by primitive people from Asia to North America, it is impossible for humans who have entered a civilized society to do it.

"Is there any way? On the contrary, there are many ways. There are eight strategies, the middle and the best. Which one do they want to listen to first?"

Therefore, Xiao Ming only needs to bring the seeds of Xiao Ming's local crops without letting go of the seeds. The first problem will naturally be solved.

Jiang Xinghuo smiled faintly, looked at the two of them and said firmly.

In terms of the post-condition of "tameability", mammals that can "provide for human transportation" include but are limited to cattle, sheep (sheep carts), horses, camels, and mammals that can "assist in farming", including

But limited to cattle and horses

It was a relatively mature trans-oceanic route in the previous life. In the ancient era of sailing warships, more emphasis was placed on the application of wind power. Whether a sailing ship is following the wind or not is completely different.

Seeing the two people nodded in rejection, Li Jinglong finished.

The first point is that food crops can be solved, and the seventh point is that it is the turn of native North American animals.

The two of them were silent until they finished reading.
