Chapter 49: Construction is more meaningful than destruction For Yelu Dashi's generosity, many tribal chiefs were so grateful that they proclaimed that they were willing to fight for him until death.
But they also expressed that they wanted to visit the immortal of the Song Dynasty who created these miracles and ask him for some "wisdom of life."
Of course Yelu Dashi understood their little thoughts, and he must have wanted to give gifts and bribes to the Song people in exchange for the seeds and cultivation methods of seven-day quick-growing wheat and edelweiss alfalfa: Although Yelu Dashi, the lord, seemed generous, others had it.
It’s better to have it yourself.
However, Yelu Dashi is happy to see the success of these small calculations of various tribes.
In terms of short-term benefits, once the grain output of the Mobei Grassland increases sharply, it will be able to provide more adequate logistical support for the Khitan War of Restoration.
As for whether these chiefs will develop dissent due to their increasing strength, if Yelu Dashi can't even suppress them, then don't even think about restoring the country.
From a more profound perspective, this can even change the balance of power between nomadic civilization and agricultural civilization on the north and south sides of the Great Wall.
Before the rise of the Khitan and the capture of the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun, the reason why the northern nomads had been at a disadvantage in the competition with the Central Plains dynasties was that even the invincible Huns and Turks could not become truly powerful and completely overwhelm the Central Plains.
Although they can use the vast grassland to raise cattle, sheep and horses, they are unable to farm, the production efficiency cannot be improved, and there is not enough food supply.
Naturally, the population of the grassland cannot be compared with that of the Central Plains.
At most, it is only more than a hundred.
Thousands of people.
Once the human resources are exhausted, the Steppe Khanate is almost certain to lose.
During the Five Hus and Sixteen Kingdoms era, although the Hu people rode cavalry across the Central Plains, once any tribe of Hu people entered the Central Plains, they would inevitably change their lifestyle and gradually abandon their hometown on the grasslands.
In the eyes of the nomads in the Mobei grassland, they also He has become a "Central Plains man" completely different from himself.
Before the Khitans established the Liao Kingdom, no regime could possess the dual attributes of a nomadic khanate and a Central Plains dynasty at the same time.
Although the nomads’ cattle, sheep and horses are raised directly on the grassland, which seems very easy and easy, in fact it is not that simple.
Not to mention the long-distance migration after eating each piece of grassland, just on weekdays How to prevent wolves and various natural disasters here is a big trouble.
If there is a heavy snowstorm and countless cattle, sheep, and horses freeze to death, many small tribes will be completely destroyed.
Droughts and locust plagues have similar destructive power.
Therefore, although the farmers in ancient China were already suffering enough, the herdsmen on the grasslands were even more miserable, and their lives were even less secure.
If they can be allowed to grow enough crops on the grassland, it will inevitably lead to a rapid expansion of the population outside the Great Wall, allowing the regime in the North of the Great Wall to feed a sufficient number of people, raise enough military expenditures, supplies, and troops to compete with the Central Plains regime.
The only thing that makes Yelu Dashi feel a little worried is whether the people of Song Dynasty have also seen this and do not want these magical crops to spread in Mobei.
In that case, most of the chiefs would not dare to take the risk of being blamed by the gods for taking the seeds from Kodun City to sow on their own territory without authorization.
Moreover, they also lack talents who know how to farm.
In addition, after Guo Dashian leaves, , once such a magical crop is separated from the blessing of the gods, I am also very worried about whether I can continue to plant Yelu Dashi in Mobei.
So, let’s let these bumpkin chiefs take the lead and test Guo Daxian’s attitude.
However, the result of this trial was so successful that Yelu Dashi was almost surprised.
Faced with the worship and entreaties of the tribal chiefs, Great Immortal Guo Jingguo discussed with his disciples and happily accepted the various gifts they sent.
He also readily agreed to the requests of the chiefs, saying that he was happy to give them to him.
These miraculous crops have been spread throughout the prairie, benefiting all people and keeping the people of Mobei away from the suffering of hunger.
Next, Guo Jing not only gave each of them a number of seeds and seedlings, but also enthusiastically took out a bunch of agricultural books from the Central Plains, such as Qi Min Yao Shu and his own booklet on precautions for planting new crops, etc. , distributed to everyone one by one, and finally encouraged them to study hard and work hard for a good harvest and prosperity for the people of all ethnic groups inside and outside the Great Wall.
Although this better-than-expected result should make Yelu Dashi happy, the hordes of visitors that followed made him feel that his head was as big as a bucket.
Many of the chiefs are illiterate, even those Most people who are proficient in Chinese characters cannot understand such a difficult and obscure tome.
So, they all found Yelu Dashi, the Khitan Hanlin who was recognized as the most literate on the grassland, to ask for advice on what they could not understand in these books.
This place made Dashi Linya very busy.
In addition, the slightly educated Khitan and Han officials in Kedun City, and even Yue Fei, who was only slightly literate among the Song army, were surrounded by countless people holding newly acquired books and asking for advice.
As for those Han, Bohai and Xi farmers who had personally participated in farming before, they have become key poaching targets for various tribes.
Many tribal leaders even put their own daughters as a price to recruit sons-in-law.
And Yelu Dashi was even more determined.
After the restoration of the country in the future, large numbers of Han people from Liaodong and Bohai people must be moved to the grasslands to reclaim wasteland.
On the one hand, it is to increase food production, and on the other hand, it is also to move to these self-contained grassland tribes.
Add sand into it to strengthen the central government's control.
At the same time, Wang Qiu happily counted the tributes, or tuition fees, sent by the chiefs of various ministries.

Colorful gems from the Western Regions, gold and silver jewelry with unique styles that are very different from those of the Central Plains, precious mink and bear skins, and even Roman gold coins minted in an unknown era are all tributes paid by various tribes to Immortal Guo.
No matter how bitter and barren the Mobei grassland is, in the hands of the tribal chiefs as the ruling class, they can still get some good things together.
Although most of the belongings must be stuffed into the automatic pawn machine by Doraemon to exchange for money to pay off the debt.
But Wang Qiu unceremoniously stuffed a few gems and gold coins into his pocket as a reward for helping them purchase salt and serving as an agricultural technician to teach new crop farming techniques.
Although Wang Qiu had never farmed before, At least you can understand the introductory instructions and educational videos.
In fact, if the future new crop seeds provided by Doraemon are the same as the high-yielding rice seeds of Wang Qiu's era, they cannot reproduce themselves while maintaining basic traits, but will completely degenerate after a few generations.
If you only need to buy new seeds every year, then the promotion of planting in this era will naturally come to nothing.
After all, Doraemon cannot let the seed company of the future world open a branch here.
Fortunately, according to Doraemon, seven-day fast-growing wheat and edelweiss alfalfa, two extremely tough and cold-resistant crops, were originally designed as "pioneers" to develop the barren land of the Antarctic continent.
Even if there is no follow-up service from the seed company, it can reproduce on its own.
At most, the traits will be degraded.
But compared with any crop in this era, it can still be called an artifact for increasing yields.
Therefore, the lower-level soldiers accompanying the Song army have little knowledge of Guo Jing, the "real person who protects the country", who has recently promoted farming and taught high-yielding new crops in Mobei.
They only know that they drink and eat meat here all day long, and interact with Turks and The Khitans and Mongols had a great time gambling and wrestling.
But among the more knowledgeable and educated officers, there are quite some doubts and even worries.
For example, on the second night after Guo Daxian was distributing seeds and farming books, the cavalry commander Yue Fei came over with a sad look on his face and complained:
"Contacting the Khitan, attacking the Jinlu, and leveraging their strength is indeed the best strategy for our government to drive out the Tartars and restore the lost land.
But the real man here taught the barbarians, taught farming, and gave high-yielding seeds, transforming the outside of the Great Wall into Jiangnan, making it After the Jurchens were defeated, the food supply was abundant and the strength soared.
Wouldn't it be suspected of raising tigers again?
It should be noted that although the Jin people of Liaodong had a close relationship with our dynasty, the Khitan on the grassland was also a centuries-old enemy.
Besides, if you really have such high-yield and fine seeds, you will not give them to the people of our country, but let the grassland herdsmen take the lead.
It would be too unfair to treat one another."
In this regard, Guo Jing pushed Wang Qiu, the "big disciple", to answer Yue Fei's questions and explain why he wanted to be so "enemies".
"Master's recent actions are not to emphasize the Khitan and underestimate the people of the Song Dynasty, but these two things are naturally suitable for the bitter cold land in the north of the Great Wall.
As the saying goes, oranges grown in Huainan will become tangerines, and those born in northern Huaibei will become tangerines.
If they are transplanted to In the warm and humid areas of the Central Plains, the growth will be poor and the harvest will be poor.
Flooding will definitely lead to root rot and all your efforts will be wasted.
Of course, in order to show that we treat everyone equally, we can also give you some seeds of seven-day fast-growing wheat and edelweiss alfalfa, and let you take them back to your hometown in Xiangzhou to find a piece of land to plant them.
Maybe we can figure out a solution.
A good way to solve the above trouble."
"Secondly, it can be seen from Pengju that the Mobei Hu people only number in the millions, so why have they been a serious problem for hundreds of millions of people in the Central Plains since ancient times?
First, the Saishang grassland is a bitter cold place where grazing livestock is not enough to survive.
The reason why the Hu people risked their lives and went south for years, risking many lives and injuries to plunder the Central Plains, was because the barren grasslands could not support such a large population, and they could only survive by plundering the people of the Central Plains.
Secondly, the various ethnic groups in Mobei are rich in good horses and have no permanent place to live.
The whole tribe is nomadic with the water and grass.
In war, all the people are soldiers.
In a short time, tens of thousands of cavalry can be sent south to plow the valleys.
If our soldiers and horses in the Central Plains go north to the grasslands, it will be a waste of money and hardship.
Look for its traces.
If you sit guarding the border, you will be passively beaten everywhere and you will be unable to defend against it.
However, if the Hu people learn farming, build cities and live in settlements according to the customs of our Central Plains, open fields to plant grass and wheat, and use stables to raise livestock, and can have enough food and clothing without looting, then they can still use all the people as soldiers, regardless of the cities and fields at home.
The whole tribe went south to attack Central Plains?
Moreover, in this world, only the poor rob the rich, how can there be any reason for the rich to steal from the poor?
If Saibei gets these two things and engages in extensive farming, and the food harvest is far better than that in the south of the Yangtze River, I am afraid that Huma will never go south again, but But the people in the Central Plains are going to go outside the Great Wall to rob."
Then, after Comrade Yue Fei, who had been indoctrinated with "new thinking", got up and left in a daze, and went back to rest, Wang Qiu casually turned out the book of time travel, wanting to see if there were any changes, but was The latest two lines of writing that appeared made me so scared that my jaw almost dropped: "Upgrade the nomadic civilization in the Mobei Grassland to a settled farming civilization and get 10,000 reward points."

"The current total points are 55,000 reward points, and the conditions for single-person separation have been met.
Ask if participant Guo Jing will be allowed to return to the real world."
Oh my god, the 50,000 reward points for ending the game were collected so unknowingly.
Such massacres on the battlefields of Bianliang and Huining had changed the fate of so many emperors and generals, but in the end, they could only get 1,500 reward points from each person at most.
But now they just spread some new crops on the grassland.
They didn't kill anyone or destroy a city, but they got a full 10,000 reward points.
Oh my god, is this really more meaningful for this world?
Construction is more meaningful than destruction. oshow7:
