Three Kingdoms: Everything Can Be Gamified

Chapter 457: People’s Mindset
"I have to say that your choice is very clear..." Zhang He looked at the consul in front of him in Greek.

Strictly speaking, the official language of Parthia is Greek, with Parthian as a supplement.

This was not a sign of flattery to Rome, after all, the official language of Rome during this period was Latin.

It might be some kind of historical issue, but Zhang He didn't know about it and didn't bother to know.

After all, since I came here, both Parthia and Roman civilization will eventually be destroyed.

The whole world speaks Mandarin... This is another matter, but the whole world speaks Chinese and uses Chinese characters, that is inevitable.

"As promised, we will not touch your officials. But we will not let go of those nobles," Zhang He announced.

"Thank you very much!" The consul thanked him quickly.

In fact, it was knowing that this army would not kill the local governor that gave him the courage to open the door.

It would be better to say that they are very worried. If they don't open the door, they will even kill the officials.

What happened next was somewhat bloody.

Zhang He said he wouldn't let the nobles go, but he really didn't let them go. For a while, the whole city was killed with corpses and blood everywhere.

Considering that it was only the blood of nobles and their immediate relatives, it would not be a waste of blood.

"Someone will come to take over this city later, but before that, you are still the governor of this city." Zhang He looked at the governor.

I don’t even bother to know his name, after all, we probably won’t see each other again for a while.

Among the nobles who were killed, there were many relatives of the officials, but during the massacre, they all chose to turn a blind eye and even try to distance themselves from each other.

As long as you don't die, you really don't care about much else.

Until Zhang He left, many people came to the homes of their relatives. Naturally, with the help of the consuls, this became their home.

Some old and weak slaves were brought back to solve the manpower problem.

Things in the house that cannot be moved will naturally be taken over.

If the fields and properties have not been taken away, then there is nothing to fear.

As for whether Ardashir would allow such a thing when he came over, that would be irrelevant.

"General, our final goal is ahead, Fandou City! In addition, when we arrived nearby, we found a huge lake..." Yang Lang came back to report.

The army has been advancing for three days and is almost able to reach Pandu City as planned.

In this way, we can stay here before summer.

"Although that lake is big, the water is not drinkable. It is a saltwater lake." Zhang He said with a smile.

As a result of plate activity, a large sea was enclosed among the continental plates, forming the current Caspian Sea.

It's not a big deal simply to clean up the body, but unfortunately it cannot be used as a source of drinking water unless distillation or condensation is used.

You don't even need to light a fire. Solar energy is a good way to boil water, but it's not very efficient.

"I haven't tried it. If you have a chance, go take a look." Yang Lang was a little curious, but not very surprised.

After all, in the northwest of Qiangyin County, Yanmen County, there was Yanze, which was later known as Daihai.

It is also a huge lake. The water is somewhat salty and can be used to boil salt.

The labor cost of Daihai Salt is relatively high. After 1970, there were few people producing it.

However, in this era, this labor cost is not as high as the price of salt, so naturally many people produce it.

Inland salt lakes and the like are no strangers to Zhang He, who has been a herdsman in Bingzhou, and the people around him.

This is because they have never seen Qinghai Salt Lake, otherwise they would know that Daihai is still too small.

Compared with the Caspian Sea, Qinghai Salt Lake seems a bit small.

The southern part of the Caspian Sea is surrounded by mountains, but there is probably no shortage of water, so the green area has begun to increase.

It’s not surprising that there are three cities on this line, and they are not very far from each other.

After all, human beings only live in pursuit of water and grass, and it is impossible for them to just settle down in a place filled with yellow sand.

If so, it can only mean that this place was once an oasis and many people lived here, but the climate changed later.

Otherwise, it is a group of losers who finally fled here. Just like the Valley of the Wicked, this is their final destination.

"It's okay to settle down here..." Gu Yong said with emotion, the climate here is not unbearable.

What's rare is that his words didn't arouse much refutation, and of course few people supported him.However, Zhang He heard something. Everyone didn't speak, which was actually a kind of acquiescence.

It is not difficult to analyze from here that everyone is a little tired of this journey and hopes to settle down.

It's somewhat confusing to think that I can't go to Ctesiphon to settle down until autumn.

If you keep moving forward, you may still be able to persist, but if you settle here for a month or two and then move forward, the mood will be completely different.

Not to mention, their goal at the beginning was the more distant Armenia, so it would be good to get there before winter.

Hearing this, Zhang He could not help but begin to seriously consider whether to continue moving forward or start building the country here.

The capital can be moved there in the future, and the basic elements for development are already there, so there is no need to pursue a better environment.

"Say something!" Zhang He shouted, "What do you think if we start building a country here in Fandou?"

"Good!" Everyone responded one after another. It was enough to get here, and it was already far away from the big man.

Even if the imperial court continues its western expedition, taking into account supply line problems, it may not be possible to reach here in less than 30 to [-] years.

But in fact, no one knows what will happen in 30 to [-] years.

Maybe Liu Bei died suddenly and the prince was incapable of doing anything, so he lost power.

Then after another 20 years, he was forced to give in.

The whole world is in chaos, and then the cards begin to be reshuffled. I am afraid that no one will worry about the foreign countries in the west anymore.

In fact, even Liu Bei did not intend to focus on the west.

He knew that this was his adopted brother's territory, so he really gave it to Zhang He.

If future generations are interested, let them go by themselves. If they are not interested, forget it.

Compared with the vast west, the northeast and south are obviously more worthy of development. At least in his lifetime, he will focus on developing these two places.

As for the west, aren’t there still Indian plains?

It would be great if we could conquer the Indian plains in our lifetime.And this place is obviously still far away from Zhang He's kingdom.

As long as there is no border, the countdown to return will not begin.

During the countdown to return, it is still unknown what will happen in 50 years.

"Okay, let's all work harder and capture Fandou City, and then we will start building the country!" Zhang He announced.

"Here!" everyone shouted, and their morale instantly surged several times.

After all, we are finally settling down, even if we will definitely continue to fight later, there is a rear after all.

There will also be some people who will stay and settle here.

Don't worry about facing war anymore and just start a new life.

For most people, as long as they follow the army, they have the possibility of being attacked by the enemy.

Although there are a lot of weapons issued from above and there are about [-] militiamen armed with them, the militiamen are not regular troops after all, which makes people uneasy.

The news gradually spread, and the people who knew the news couldn't help but cheer.

Zhang He looked back, looked at the excited people, and understood that it was now necessary to found a country.

Even though he is an emperor, even an emperor cannot ignore the people's sentiments!

When the news of Jianguo's founding was spread, morale reached its highest level instantly.

The defenders of Fandou City were frightened. Not long after they started attacking, they had already opened the door and surrendered.

In fact, they have persisted long enough. After all, in order to completely occupy this place, the intensity of the siege has been reduced.

The infantry entered to maintain public order and arrest the nobles inside, while the cavalry patrolled the outside to prevent the nobles from escaping.

In the evening, the streets were initially cleared, and the consul and his subordinates came out to greet them.

"You are very lucky!" Zhang He looked at them, "From now on, you will accept the baptism of Chinese civilization and become civilized people!"

　After thinking about it, if there were always various battles and marches before settling down, it would either not work, or it would be too boring. At least four or five chapters would be very boring. I would simply establish a country here and move the capital later.

　　Let's just say that Ardashir raised an army and moved the capital to Ctesiphon after defeating the Parthian Empire.

　　Ask for collection, ask for recommendation, ask for subscription!
