Chapter 116 hands-on (1)
Chapter 116: Start
Just when Benyin and Luolin took out the mines and surrounded Guan Hong's army, something big happened somewhere in the Indian continent.
Potabi, the capital of the former Zhaloqi Dynasty, has renamed it to Tacheng since the Tang Dynasty occupied it, and it has also expanded it to build it into an important town in the south of the Tianzhu continent. There are 10,000 troops alone. Of course, most of the 10,000 garrisons here are actually, or more than 80,000 are newly recruited from Tianzhu. Although the combat power is not only five, it is definitely not more than ten. It can only be used as a city defense team. Don’t think about fighting. Even if you go out of the city to fight, at most you will only fight bandits or indigenous tribes in nearby mountains and forests. It is definitely not possible to go to the real battlefield to fight tough battles.
However, although the combat effectiveness is not good, it is still a garrison of 10,000 people. In addition, there are about 2,000 real elites of the Tang Dynasty, which also intimidated the surrounding area of hundreds of miles. Five years have passed, and there has never been a war here, and there is not even a conflict of more than double-digit numbers. Therefore, this is also called the safest place in the Tianzhu continent.
In addition, the city lord sent by the imperial court was quite capable. In a few years, the huge city of Tacheng was prosperous. The happiness of the local people in India soared sharply. Some enthusiasts even conducted a survey on the happiness level of the entire city of India and ranked Tacheng first, ranking a little higher than the real capital of the Indian Governor's Office and the former capital of the festival dynasty Qunv City.
As for those port cities with very developed economies, they are far behind Tacheng - a developed economy does not mean that residents have a high happiness. After all, the economy is developed and the pace of life is fast. Everyone is busy living. When they get up early and go to bed late every day, how can they feel happy? Even such a place may have the lowest happiness.
For example, in the four most economically developed places in China in the later generations, the four major cities in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, none of them were on the list. On the contrary, those cities with middle-class economic rankings were more likely to be on the list. For example, Xinyang, Huizhou, Yantai and other places, the economic development level was not the whole country, and even the province may not be the top one. However, in the 2017 rankings, these three cities were all on the list, which shows that.
But just today, a riot suddenly occurred in Pocheng. The two thousand Tang troops, who were originally trained in the military camp and rarely appeared in front of people, suddenly went out in full swing and broke into the city. The goal was very clear and came outside a candy factory, surrounding the entire factory.
Tianzhu has superior geographical conditions and is one of the natural sugar processing bases. After the Tang people occupied this place, they also introduced some sugar-making technologies from the Central Plains here and built factories here, which naturally also included candy making technology. Later, some Tianzhu people also learned new candy manufacturing technology from the Tang people and made a lot of money by opening factories. At present, this is a factory opened by the natives of Tianzhu.
The actions here quickly attracted the attention of passers-by, and everyone was talking about it.
"What are you doing? Are you doing exercises?" Some people think this is doing exercises.
"Have you ever seen someone who only surrounds one place for exercises?" But this view was immediately refuted. They had seen exercises. When the Tang army first took over the place, in order to intimidate the slut, they had conducted practical exercises more than once. It was at that time that the powerful attack power of the Tang army made the Indians finally understand why their country failed. In front of the artillery fire that destroyed the world, what will, courage, and feelings of family and country are nonsense. Only how to live is the only thing they can think of.
Later, after the Tang people completely ruled here, they brought a lot of policies and technologies and various commodities from the Tang Dynasty, which greatly improved the living standards of the Indians, which was much better than before, and they might be arrested on the battlefield at any time. In this way, carrots and sticks were used to completely return to the hearts of the Indians.
"By the way, isn't this Old Singer's candy factory? How could it be surrounded?" Someone recognized the origin of the Candy Factory. It was a factory opened by a very prestigious Kshatriya caste. Kshatriya belonged to a high caste in India and was originally a class enemy. However, after the Tang people conquered the Indians, some Kshatriya abandoned the darkness and turned to the light and took the initiative to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty also considered conquering this place, and also needed prestigious locals to help the Tang Dynasty stabilize the people's hearts and be familiar with the local environment. Therefore, they did not kill all these people, but accepted them. The only difference is that these people no longer have their former status. From then on, they were just ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty's colonies in the Indians. They could do business normally and farm. The Tang Dynasty promised that no one would come to cause trouble for them, but accordingly they no longer had their previous power - and this person named Old Singer was one of these people.
"Strange, Old Singer is very nice to us on weekdays, but he has helped poor families a lot. He will take out the broken candy and give it to people who can't afford it. Why does our army surround this place?" This is the powerful assimilation of Han culture. Although it only occupied this place for only five years, due to the various policies and efforts of outstanding officials in the Tang Dynasty, the people of India have become increasingly recognized by the Tang Dynasty. Now they have regarded themselves as Tang people, and the name of the army is also our army, not the Tang people's army.
"Is Old Singer a bad person?" This sentence also shows how popular the Tang Dynasty is in the local area. When a person who is kind and generous on weekdays is in trouble by the army, the local people are not thinking about the army killing good people again, but whether this good person will think of bad people? Of course, there are also Singer who is Kshatriya, and most of these people are oppressed. Although his usual actions gradually influence the people around him, they are not completely recognized. Therefore, when something happens, they will be suspected of being bad people.
