From Propulsion City To Multiverse

Lingnan, Panyu.

After Song Que read the reports from Zhongyuan and Jiangnan, he showed a thoughtful look.

The current situation in various places has a tendency to repeat the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. After watching several battles of the People's Revolutionary League last year, he was completely disappointed with the Jiangnan princes.

Li Zitong fled without fighting, Le Botong was smashed to pieces in Jinling City, and Yang Guang was hiding in Yangzhou City as a tortoise.

Moreover, the information from the Song clan showed that Yang Guang's 40,000 Guards were somewhat unstable at this time, and many Sui soldiers from Guanzhong did not want to stay in Jiangnan at all, but wanted to return to Guanzhong.

In fact, this is not to blame for these Guanzhong soldiers. Even the Jiangdong Han people who migrated to the south of the Yangtze River for hundreds of years have no way to resist malaria, blood-sucking worms, cholera, typhoid and other diseases, let alone Guanzhong people.

That is to say, the People's Revolutionary Federation has a strong health system, coupled with the gradual mass production of new drugs such as Breaking Barrier Pill, Tutaru, Allicin, Berberine, etc., can suppress the infectious diseases in Jiangnan and Daliuqiu and other places.

At present, the immigration of the People's Revolutionary Federation is in large numbers, and the case fatality rate of immigrants from the southeastern states is less than 1.3% within one year.

The reason for the 1.3% case fatality rate is mainly due to many old, weak, sick and disabled people, as well as long-term malnourished people.

This is why, in the immigration work, it is necessary to rest in places such as Hu Douzhou, mainly to recuperate the body of the refugees.

As long as the body is strong, the resistance to disease is relatively high, and it will not die suddenly, maybe it can be overcome with physical fitness.

If the previous immigration method was adopted, acclimatization, subtropical and tropical infectious diseases could kill 50-80% of the immigrants from the Central Plains.

The so-called Nandu of Clothes and Crowns is a **** road, a road paved with corpses of ancestors. .

Song Que is very clear about the harsh environment in the south. Lingnan can maintain relative independence. On the one hand, it relies on the mountainous terrain of Nanling. On the other hand, it is the disease and climate in the south. Mass plague.

He picked up another letter, which Song Shidao wrote to him. The letter was very long, with hundreds of pages, almost catching up with a book.

The above describes Song Shidao's experience in the People's Revolutionary League. The most written part of the content is all kinds of hygiene knowledge and the new medicines owned by the People's Revolutionary Federation.

After reading it, even Song Que felt extremely shocked.

"This south seems to be the world of the People's Revolutionary Federation."

Song Zhi, who was beside him, asked impatiently, "Big brother! Why do you grow other people's ambition and destroy your own prestige?"

"See for yourself!"

After taking the letter in Song Que's hand, Song Zhi quickly browsed it. At first, he didn't believe why a letter could make his proud elder brother admit defeat.

After he finished reading it, his face was also gloomy and uncertain.

All the people are soldiers of the Revolutionary League, immigrants with extremely low mortality, huge warships, plus extremely sharp artillery and guns...

The clever Song Zhi, after combining these things, found that the People's Revolutionary League was indeed very scary, especially in the southern region.

If the leader of the People's Revolutionary Federation is a little more ruthless, he can use those hygiene knowledge to reverse the operation, such as deliberately dropping the excrement of blood-sucking worm patients near the opponent's water source, or deliberately selling the clothes of smallpox patients to the enemy's sphere of influence within.

When a large-scale infectious disease breaks out in the enemy's territory, the People's Revolutionary Union army can take down these enemies without bloodshed.

The climate and diseases in various parts of the South have instead become the advantages of the People's Revolutionary Federation.

Song Zhi finally understood why Song Que would admit defeat.

This battle cannot be fought.

If the northern army cannot solve the problems of acclimatization and disease, these two major problems alone can make the south a fortified natural defense line.

Only the People's Revolutionary Alliance fights others. Once others enter Jiangnan, they will be weakened by more than half of their combat effectiveness. Facing the People's Revolutionary Alliance with strong ships and cannons, Song Zhi thinks with his toes, and he knows who the South is in the world. .

It's just that Song Zhi still has doubts about joining the People's Revolutionary Federation: "But big brother, even if we want to join, the other party may not accept it. With their policy..."

"The general trend is that before the People's Revolutionary Federation does not have the Northern Expedition, our Lingnan will become the opponent's next target." Song Que seemed to have seen the future.

Song Zhi was startled: "The People's Revolutionary Federation will attack us first?"

After thinking about it, Song Zhi immediately figured it out.

To fight against the outside world, we must first secure the interior. The south is the basic plate of the People's Revolutionary Federation. Once a full-scale northern expedition is launched, if the Song clan attacks from Lingnan and attack the Southeast and Liuqiu states of the People's Revolutionary Federation, the People's Revolutionary Federation will not be attacked by the enemy.

Putting himself in his shoes and thinking about it, Song Zhi understood that Lingnan would become the next target of the People's Revolutionary Federation, because the People's Revolutionary Federation needed a solid rear, not a heavy burden to defend.

"I have already decided that on the first day of the next month, I will go to Liuqiu Danshui and the People's Revolutionary Alliance to plan a good way out for the children of the Song family. As for the Lingnan family, this world belongs to the world after all, so let them make their own choices. !"

Song Que is very decisive. He is the head of the family. He is a unique existence. Among the tens of thousands of children of the Song clan, there are only a few hundred members of their clan. If it is properly arranged, there is still something that can be done.

In the future, even if they compete fairly with ordinary people, many family elites will not be too different, and he Song Que has no idea of ​​worrying about the clansman his whole life.

How to survive under the People's Revolutionary Alliance depends on each person's ability and fortune.

When Song Que made a decision, Song Zhi naturally did not dare to disobey, and he also began to make suggestions for this matter: "Brother, I am worried that those Yue and Qiong people will do things secretly."

"The 20,000 troops of the Revolutionary League, the defender of Longchuan County, should be transferred back to Panyu. The Qiong people don't have to worry. Qiongzhou Island is surrounded by the sea, and we have been suppressing it for so many years. They can't make any waves."

Song Que continued: "As for the Yue people, after I left, you immediately called the leaders of the Northern Expedition to Yulin County under the name of Lin Shihong, and asked them to bring troops over, and then act accordingly."

Hearing that he acted by chance, Song Zhi had already heard the implication.

If these chiefs were unwilling to hand over their soldiers, they would directly kill the opponents, and those who agreed to hand over their soldiers would all be escorted to Panyu under house arrest.

As for how to recover those soldiers, the People's Revolutionary Federation's set is very useful. Song Zhi is planning to join the People's Revolutionary Federation.

As long as these Tusi soldiers are under control, there will be no major chaos in the entire Lingnan.

Song Ji quickly stepped into the role.

And when he brought it into the perspective of the People's Revolutionary League, he found that many of the previous problems were not problems at all.

In the past, I needed to work with Tusi Xu and Wei She, but now I don't need it at all.

He finally understood why the People's Revolutionary Federation didn't care about the tyrants of the landlords, because it was totally unnecessary. The People's Revolutionary Federation didn't need the landlords and tyrants to manage the land, and they didn't need them to pay taxes.

Song Zhi has studied the internal operation mode of the People's Revolutionary Federation, that is, government-run factories control industrial products, and farmers can only simply farm.

At this time, it is necessary to ensure that farmers have land, so that farmers can obtain food and agricultural products, and then farmers will have the ability to consume.

Otherwise, all the land is owned by the landlord, and the farmers cannot even eat enough. How to realize the economic cycle of the industrial and agricultural service industry?

1000 farmers and 1 landlord, the consumption demand generated by the two is vastly different.

Take glass mirrors as an example. How many glass mirrors will the landlord's family buy? How many glass mirrors would 1000 farmers buy?

And consumer demand determines the food security of the People's Revolutionary Federation.

Suppose the consumption demand of a landlord is 100, and the consumption demand of 1000 farmers is 10,000.

In order to meet their own consumption needs, the landlord needs to sell 100 worth of grain, and 1,000 farmers need to sell 10,000 worth of grain.

See the difference.

If you zoom in, this situation is more obvious.

This is also the core idea of ​​Zheng Sen's design of this system. As long as we look at the local population and consumer demand for industrial products, we can judge the agricultural situation in the region.

Suppose that there are 100,000 agricultural populations in a region, and the annual consumption of glass products is 2 million crystal coins, but suddenly in a certain year, the consumption of glass products in the region is only 500,000.

Gu Qu

Then there must be problems in this area. Either there have been large-scale natural disasters, the agricultural harvest was not good that year, or the income of farmers has fallen off a cliff.

The consumption of industrial products and the amount of grain purchased in various regions can reflect many problems.

As long as the People's Revolutionary Federation's food purchases in a place are not safe enough, there must be a problem in that place, either a natural disaster or a man-made disaster.

The more Song Zhi understands the system of the People's Revolutionary Federation, the more he understands that under this model, there is no way for the aristocratic family to grow and develop.

Because the core of the development of the aristocratic family is to cultivate and read the family.

If they want to grow and develop, they need to exploit the peasants. This is not a question of whether the landlords have morals, but the attributes of the entire class. They are destined to develop and maintain only by sucking the blood of the peasants.

Until the land was annexed to the limit, the population reached the bearing limit, and finally the redistribution of population and land had to be completed by changing the dynasty.

This is similar to the economic crisis in the capital age.

Perhaps individual capitalists have a little conscience, but the general trend of the entire class cannot be changed by individuals.

Don't they know that doing so will make life at the bottom untenable?

The answer is to know.

But they have been caught in a prisoner's dilemma, and if they don't **** the blood of the bottom, they will not survive, and then they will be squeezed to death by other landlords.

The prisoner's dilemma in society and the general environment, as well as the selfishness of human nature, forced the landlords to carry out mergers.

In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, land annexation was almost out of control. In order to annex land, the scholar-officials deliberately misinterpreted Zhu Yuanzhang's ancestral precepts so that the scholar-official class could obtain the right to tax exemption. Scholar-officers are exempt from tax.

The emergence of this tax exemption for scholar-bureaucrats has had terrible consequences. In order to avoid taxation, a large number of self-cultivation farmers, on the one hand, desperately sharpen their heads to gain fame, and on the other hand, "donate their fields" to famous scholar-bureaucrats.

Whether they are landlords, scholar-officials, or capitalists, their class attributes determine their behavior, and they can only continue to merge and privatize.

The existence of the People's Revolutionary Federation is to smash this process and lead mankind to a new path.

…

The 14th year of the great cause, February 1.

Song Que, who secretly left Lingnan a few days ago, came to Danshui City with only a dozen followers.

Since Tang Feilin presided over the work in Southeast Prefecture, Qiao Sancai is now responsible for the work of Liuqiuzhou, but there is still a veteran in Liuqiuzhou, that is, Longsa, who is experimenting with steamboats.

in the freshwater steel plant.

Song Que saw one of the founders of the People's Revolutionary Federation.

So strong! The moment he saw Longsa, he felt the oppressive feeling of the sea on this seemingly weak woman.

Turned out to be a great master!

With a serious face, he clasped his fists and greeted: "Song Que has seen Minister Long!"

Longsha asked with a half-smile but not a smile: "Master Song, are you really willing to have the gold and silver mountains in your hands?"

Song Que replied unconcernedly: "Money is a foreign thing, if you can save all the people in the world, so what if I offer Lingnan's hands?"

"Then let me take the Song clan master to visit the various places in Liuqiu!"

"There is Minister Lauron."

Longsa waved his hand: "I'm just the head of the Ministry of Industry. If you want to visit the countryside and cities, you can ask Sancai to take you."

Song Que pointed to the huge steel factory in front of him and said, "It's better to hit the sun if you choose another day. I want to see this steel factory."

"Can."

The two walked into the steel factory and entered the blast furnace ironmaking area.

hot! It's everyone's first impression.

Many sappers were wearing fire cloth (asbestos cloth), and when operating the blast furnace, everyone was fully focused.

That hot molten iron is extremely dangerous.

One of the blast furnaces just reached the stage of molten iron casting.

The baffle plate of the blast furnace was pulled open, and the hot and red molten iron flowed down from the kaolin clay channel and poured into the prepared steel mold below. There was a kaolin layer in the mold to prevent the molten iron and the steel mold from merging together.

Soon a 100 kg pig iron ingot was cast.

"This furnace of iron, I'm afraid it will not be less than 10,000 catties!"

Longsha explained casually: "50 tons of a furnace, equivalent to hundreds of thousands of Sui Jin."

Song Que looked around and saw that more than a dozen blast furnaces in the entire factory were emitting hot air. The output of these steels really surprised him.

The cast iron ingots are quickly taken off the mold before cooling, and then pulled into the pure oxygen decarburization chamber.

The temperature of the entire decarburization chamber is very high. When a large amount of pure oxygen is injected, dark red iron ingots shine, sparks are scattered rapidly, and the temperature rises rapidly.

"This step is to smelt wrought iron, and then facilitate the next processing." Longsha said to herself.

Compared with smelting alloy steel from pig iron with complex composition, it is better to thoroughly decarbonize pig iron and turn it into pure wrought iron.

Then by adding carbon element, or other elements, the required carbon steel and alloy steel are prepared.

After walking through the factories of the steel factory, Song Que had a further understanding of the strength of the People's Revolutionary Federation.

The Danshui Iron and Steel Plant alone can produce dozens of times more steel than the entire Central Plains Dynasty. With such a huge output, it is no wonder that the soldiers of the Human Revolutionary Alliance are equipped with a large amount of iron armor.

Among them, the factory area that shocked him the most was the steel processing area.

All kinds of processing equipment will flatten the hot steel like dough in a circle, and grind it together. There is no need for a lot of blacksmiths to strike iron with a hammer.

In the thermal power plant next door, Song Que saw a huge steam engine again, and the thermal energy was converted into mechanical energy, and the mechanical energy drove the generator to generate electricity.

Then go to the north of the steel plant, where there is a newly built Tamsui Arsenal four kilometers away.

Here he saw the production process of artillery, rifles and machine guns.

Picking up a very sophisticated rifle, Song Que fired a dozen rounds under Longsa's guidance.

"Huh! Many princes want to imitate your firearms, but now they seem to be delusional." Song Que sighed.

Just now, he carefully looked at the processing process and realized the difficulty of manufacturing this firearm.

Just the 6 rifling in the barrel, and the good steel, is difficult enough.

Not to mention the inexplicable propellant and primer in the small bullet.

Although Song Que was very confident that he could evade firearms and even defeat dozens of ordinary soldiers with guns.

But how many warriors are there in the world who can rival the martial arts of Song Que?

Probably less than one hand.
