The wind on the prairie blew Dolgo's golden tent hunting.
The words of the Golden Tent Nageltu have been approved by most of the flag leaders, and successive failures have made them lose their confidence.
They can no longer bear the loss of the tribal cavalry. After all, apart from the Great Yu Kingdom, they also face the threat of the Ottoman Empire in the Western Regions, and there are some small tribes coveting the grasslands in the north of the grassland. They are called the Tatars. The ancestors of these people are from Persia. Has been living near the North Sea.
After closing his eyes and pondering for a long time, Dolgo gradually calmed down. Although he disliked Gertu very much, he admitted that Gertu was right.
They couldn't take down the city occupied by the Great Yu Kingdom, and while losing the city, they also lost most of their slaves and clansmen.
He believed that the Dayu Congress took advantage of this big victory to continue to conquer the remaining three cities before the winter, and he could not stop it with his current strength.
What's more, for him, a person more threatening than the Emperor of the Kingdom of Da Yu appeared, and this was Geertu.
If the city is gone, they can retake it again, but if the Golden Horde is torn apart, their glory will be a thing of the past.
Obviously, Gertu is already challenging his authority. If he puts the tribe into the war with the Great Yu Kingdom, Gertu will probably rebel and seize his Khan status.
After all, the sons who were eligible to inherit his throne were dead.
So for him, the most important thing now is to win over the flag heads of these tribes, and to win over them, he must follow their will.
After pondering for a long time, Dolgo said: "You are right, I will not send my people to die, but now the country is pressing hard, what shall we do?"
"Moving west, now we should move west." A flag leader said, "Next, Great Yu will attack Raozhou. Shengdu is too close to Raozhou. Now we have to move west. Grassland is our hometown. "
Dolgo sighed. In fact, the tribes who lived on the grasslands have never looked down upon the tribesmen who farmed in Liucheng.
In their opinion, living on horseback is noble.
"Let all the tribesmen of Raozhou, Jianzhou, and Yingzhou withdraw from the city and burn the city to its fullest, so that nothing can be left to the Great Yu Country." Geertu said sternly.
Dolgo nodded, losing the protection of the cavalry, these three cities could not withstand the attack of Great Yu.
Continuing to resist will only allow Dayu to get more tribesmen and slaves. He is very clear about what Dayu has done to their tribesmen after occupying the city.
"Dolan, now you go to Jianzhou, Baru, you go to Yingzhou, Ut, and Raozhou immediately, tell the people to burn the city, kill the slaves who refuse to leave, and don’t give anything. Great Yu country stays." Dolgo said bitterly.
Three soldiers of the Golden Horde arrived.
The flag leaders nodded their heads with satisfaction. Although this was a result they were unwilling to see, it was clear that they had no ability to stop the attack on the three cities underneath by the army of Great Yu.
On the grassland, they live by water and grass, and they can migrate at any time in the face of threats, but the city is different, and they cannot take the city away.
Gertu wanted to use this incident to unite the flag leader against Dolgo, but now Dolgo’s decision gave him no excuses. He snorted and looked at Dolgo with unwillingness in his eyes. .
In his mind, the desperate situation faced by the Golden Horde was caused by Dolgo, and he was no longer worthy of being a Khan of the Golden Horde.
It's just that there are still a large number of flag leaders supporting Dolgo. There is no benefit for him to directly confront him, but he will not stop there. On the grassland, their Goshawk tribe is strong.
...
Qingzhou.
After three days of drizzle, the weather gradually cleared, and the people who were worried that the grain would rot in the ground were finally relieved.
Qingzhou Fuya also issued orders to the production teams in various states and counties, asking them to quickly grab them so as not to cause unnecessary losses.
Although the imperial court has opened up private commerce among the people, the Great Yu State has never relaxed its supervision of all walks of life. Freedom needs to be restrained, otherwise endless freedom will only cause disaster and national unrest.
Xiao Ming sees this very clearly, so now the economy of Dayu is not a completely free capital economy. Behind the free circulation, Xiao Ming always keeps his hand.
Outside of industry and commerce, Xiao Ming of agriculture naturally did not allow its barbaric growth. The current situation in the country of Da Yu is not suitable for the people to do whatever they want. In fact, in the difficult period of the country, the country pursued a planned economy. The New Deal of Roosevelt during World War II fully explained this point.
During this period, the United States abandoned the liberal economic policies it had adopted before and began to intervene in some areas of the market economy in a planned way. At this time, the centralized economy exerted its powerful advantages.
Because of this, Xiao Ming believes that the most important issue in the great Yu country is the combination of a centralized economy and a free market, and it will gradually let go after the great Yu country can achieve initial prosperity like Europe.
"The emperor, I have to say that this mechanical workshop was established too timely. This year, when we were plowing in spring, we first had this horsepower seed drill, which made the planting efficiency 20 times higher than before, and now it has horsepower for harvesting. By chance, the slaves saved can open up another twenty plantations." Zhan Xingchang accompanied Xiao Ming for a walk in the fields.
June is about to come out. This is the season when the wheat is ripe. After the city of Qingzhou, the golden wheat waves are gratifying. Many people have already harvested in the fields.
Every year during the harvest season, Xiao Ming would go to the farmland and plantation around Qingzhou City. Every time he saw the grain, his heart would feel more calm.
If according to contemporary standards ~EbookFREE.me~Most areas of the country are below the poverty line, these areas are very fragile. Once natural and man-made disasters occur, production may be reduced or even no crops will be harvested, then it will be a disaster. .
Looking at the three-horsepower harvester in the field, Xiao Ming said: "So I often say that technology is productivity. It used to require 20 people to do a job, but now only two people can do it."
While talking, Xiao Ming and Zhan Xingchang went down to the field.
This is the plantation of the imperial court, and the early horse-drawn disc cutter harvester is used in the field. Compared with the common people, they use sickle to cut down the wheat.
This horse-drawn disc harvester can cut the wheat piece by piece, and people behind only need to bundle the wheat back to the threshing field.
For this type of harvester, the time required to harvest an acre of wheat is usually the time required for the horses to move back and forth, which is about an hour.
But if the people are allowed to harvest, only fifty people can achieve this effect.
