Chapter 242 Long-term plan
Chen Lin is a technology person and considers things for a long time.
To reclaim arable land, not to mention the land left by the villages on the east bank of Lushui.
Just leave the north gate and go all the way to Huanglongjiang.
This narrow area with a width of only two or three miles is more than thirty miles long.
There are also 20,000 to 30,000 mu of wasteland that can be reclaimed.
However, after thinking about it, he felt that it was not safe.
I worked hard to open up the land and planted crops.
Before we can get the harvest, what should the Liao people do if they go south in large numbers?
I have only a few thousand soldiers, how can I fight against others in the field?
He won't do it if he loses money.
It’s different to make a fuss in the wild grass beach.
With the presence of naval forces, the Liao army had a slim chance of crossing the Lu River.
They can't afford that kind of damage.
The weeds are vast, with millions of acres.
All of them are transformed into fertile land, naturally they cannot be done.
Chen Lin was not in a hurry, the ants were gnawing on the leaves, coming bit by bit.
We will build tens of thousands of acres this year and tens of thousands of acres next year.
As long as one tenth of it is to make it, it will be hundreds of thousands of acres of rice fields.
Still in the safest area.
In this era, no matter how low the rice yield is, as long as the fertilizer can keep up.
There is no problem with a yield of several hundred kilograms per mu.
That's more than three loads.
It is enough to support the people in the entire Anding County.
There is no shortage of food and no shortage of salt.
Relying on Lushui and Huanglong River, there is no shortage of fish.
Cotton can be planted in the original arable land in the 12 villages.
This thing matures later than winter wheat.
The cotton plant has a smell, and the war horses won’t touch it.
Cotton can only be picked in July and August.
This season is very embarrassing for the Liao people.
They cross the river and make grass and valleys, and they must wait until the autumn is high and the horses are fat.
When the wheat ripening season comes in the second year, you have to go back after plundering it.
The people need to be trimmed.
At least the area of Chanzhou, the squad, township and regular troops from various places were combined.
It's a total of 200,000 or 300,000.
Even if all the troops in Yingzhou were rushed over, they would rush over.
If you want to take root in the territory of Chanzhou, you can't do it right now.
Just when the 100,000 Taiyuan Army next door was having a good meal?
The Liao army in Yingzhou was alert to Chanzhou, too far away.
Yelu Dayue dared to take all his troops to Chanzhou.
Even if the Taiyuan Army did not dare to recover Datong, it would be fine if it went over to rob him.
You are empty behind you!
This kind of opportunity will not be seized by a fool.
So, Yang Chen judged.
Even if Yelu Dayue is determined to use troops to Chengzhou, he will not be able to dispatch the entire army.
I won’t stay in Chanzhou and leave.
He can't be defeated by fighting the grass valley.
This is also a headache for Chen Lin.
There are many troops in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they can win decisive battles with the Liao army.
Apart from his own iron army, there is probably only the Tiger and Dragon Division in Luoyang Mountain.
It is difficult for him to run to the peace in the mountains.
Although his iron army has seven thousand people.
Facing the Liao army of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, Chen Lin was still not capable.
If he wants to develop, he can only ask for land and food from the wild grass beach.
"Everyone, don't doubt it!"
"Once we turn out a few feet of new soil, covering the infiltration of groundwater."
"You can definitely grow rice."
"The paddy fields have been replaced with fresh water for a long time."
"The trend of salinization will be effectively curbed."
"As long as we are willing to work hard, the northern part of the wild grass beach will be the grain production area of Tiecheng."
Everyone understands.
The huge weed beach cannot be fully developed.
This is a lifelong struggle.
Keeping most of it as a barrier is more effective than a city wall!
Even if there is a master like Ding Po and Mao, who is not afraid of death.
What can he do if he can cross the dangerous weed beach?
Once you reach the flat and unobstructed field, isn’t it just a living target?
Just as our telescope is a decoration?
Of course, you can also take advantage of the night to touch it.
But how do you get through tens of thousands of acres of salt lake?
When the waterway reaches the pass-through warship, you have to dig up to a width of 200 or 300 steps?
This is enough for you to spend a long time in sightseeing.
I believe that no fool would really go into the water and swim.
I was discovered and it was difficult to hide, so I caught it in one net.
Tiecheng will expand another five or six thousand acres, what training ground, new military camp, and new campus.
It can be placed for the time being.
Because the number of people is the orphans at school.
Six to eight people live in a dormitory.
The school is enough to accommodate 70% of the population.
Chen Lin estimated that the expanded Lushui Iron City would have no problem living in 100,000 people.
It will be seven or eight years later when these children reach the age of getting married and starting a family.
In the next step to expand Tiecheng again, we have to consider getting it done in one step.
At that time, there was enough manpower, material resources and financial resources.
Just practice along the north gate.
If the hills and plains that last more than thirty miles are surrounded.
Even the relatively low mountains to the west can be expanded by one or two miles.
A majestic city with a circumference of more than 60 miles has risen in the north.
The single-wheeled area is almost over the capital city.
Of course, they are located on the plains with a population of more than 1.5 million.
Lushui Tiecheng is a half-mountain city.
There are 700,000 or 800,000 residents, and Chen Lin doesn’t regret traveling for a while.
As a military city, with such a huge population base, how many soldiers can it support?
Who else dares to provoke Chen Lin?
Even if he stays home, he has to consider counterattacking Jiangbei.
The purpose of raising an army is to conquer cities and villages in the end.
Shen Lin is inconvenient to move in the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
What about the territory of the Liao people in Jiangbei?
Hundreds of years ago, they were all territory of the Central Plains.
It is not impossible to swear to the Northern Expedition.
It's gone far.
These thoughts only occasionally flashed in Shen Lin's mind.
He really doesn't have any great ambitions for the imperial edict in his bones.
Be able to survive in troubled times.
Build a shelter for those who follow you, which can protect the safety of hundreds of thousands of people.
With a beautiful wife and concubine, I will give birth to a few cute dolls.
Chen Lin felt that this life would be worth the ticket price.
The general direction has been determined, and the subordinate officials are busy with fighting spirit.
Professional things, let professionals do it.
Chen Lin discovered that he might have had a long period of leisure.
However, the officer training class will start in three days.
The speaker is still him.
Small flags, hundreds of households and thousands of households in the army must come.
In the past six months.
Chen Lin racked his brains to combine his own historical knowledge and future generations' insights.
There are several books compiled into a book.
"Infantry Code", "Cavalent Code", "Logistics and Bailout Regulations", "Medical Regulations",
Five books on "Summary of Penalties" have been implemented for half a year.
Although it has been repeatedly revised, it has been proven to be effective.
Moreover, the effect is surprisingly good.
For civilian use, there are also three books: Common Cases and Prevention and Control, Iron City Health Regulations, and Iron City Law.
These three booklets were edited by Shen Lin and cooperated with the hospital and departments at all levels.
I want to be outstanding in the implementation effect, and there is nothing wrong with it at the moment.
The only textbook, "Myth Education", is a compulsory course in the school.
Chen Lin wrote half of the text and half white, and it was mixed.
Principal Tian Wenqing and a group of gentlemen were very dissatisfied and were fully revising.
This chapter has been completed!
