I'm in the Red Mansion

Soon, Liu Xianglian led a large army to the New World.

The first thing to do after arriving is to select a piece of vacant land, build a city, and construct a dock.

Since Jia Cong had ideas about the New World, he certainly didn't come here blindly.

He had some understanding of the New World in advance and had also chosen a place to build his base camp in advance.

This place has fertile land around it and is also a place where a dock can be built.

This place has not been visited by those bandits and is a rare pure land in this land.

That’s right, Jia Cong sent a large army to rescue the indigenous people.

But there is a balance to be struck here.

We need to rescue them, but not rescue them too quickly.

If they are rescued too quickly and easily, they often do not know how to cherish them and will be difficult to rule in the future.

Therefore, their rescue requires a long process.

Moreover, this place is just the right distance from the indigenous people.

We can communicate with them without causing hostility from them by seizing territory.

Jia Cong is preparing to conquer the New World with great patience.

He had made thorough preparations beforehand and even investigated the indigenous people.

Since there is no unified country on this continent, most of the indigenous people exist in the form of tribes.

There are countless tribes living and multiplying on this land.

Each tribe has a different attitude towards outsiders.

The tribes in this land are relatively gentle towards outsiders.

Unlike some xenophobic tribes, they are very hostile to outsiders. Once they find outsiders outside their tribe, they will launch an attack and communication is completely impossible.

Next, Liu Xianglian commanded the soldiers to start building the city.

Because this city was the first stronghold of the Central Plains in the New World, this city was named Starting Point City, which was their starting point in the New World.

As for this first city, Liu Xianglian was not prepared to fool around.

He brought the drawings and many relevant personnel.

They first built some temporary shelters, and then constructed underground drainage projects.

The construction of Qidian City is not something that can be achieved overnight.

Of course, building the starting city is not their focus.

Liu Xianglian led his men and began to contact the local indigenous people, preparing to trade with them and even to hire some of them.

In fact, the reason why this new continent did not form a unified country.

Jia Cong guessed that it might be because the land on this continent was too fertile and the resources were too abundant.

For example, the land here is fertile, so they only need to use slash-and-burn farming to burn out a piece of land and scatter some seeds, which is enough for them to feed themselves.

There were also abundant animals, and hunting was very easy, so it was not difficult to fill your stomach.

If something comes too easily, it is difficult to cherish it and you will lose the motivation to make progress.

They don't need to study bows and crossbows, advanced weapons, or intensive farming.

We don't need too much food, because if there is too much, there will be surplus every year and eventually it will just rot and be wasted.

And because of this, it is not easy to hire them.

Fortunately, this time, Liu Xianglian also brought a large number of electronic products.

There is a river near the starting point city.

They plan to build a power station here to supply electricity to Qidian City.

They need to arouse the desires of the indigenous people and make them eager to get electronic products.

Only with desire can motivation be generated. Desire is the primary driving force.

They began to come into contact with the local indigenous people.

Because they had done their homework beforehand, they had recruited some talents who knew the local indigenous language.

Moreover, they are very familiar with the customs and practices of these indigenous peoples.

Therefore, although the local indigenous people are very wary of these outsiders.

But after some communication, they finally let down their guard.

It turned out that these new outsiders and the bandits did not come from the same place.

It turns out that these outsiders are of the same origin as them. They are descendants of Yan and Huang just like themselves?

These outsiders, fearing that they would not believe it, even brought out the Central Plains' mythology system.

Sure enough, even in their mythological systems, they have many similarities.

Well, these indigenous people believe in natural gods.

Like the corn god, sun god, moon god, wind god, etc., they believe that all natural things, even animals and plants, have gods.

There are similar gods in the Central Plains, but there are not many similarities among their gods.

However, Jia Cong had made preparations in advance. He had already made some slight changes to the gods worshipped by the indigenous people, and then compiled them into a separate book with pictures.

In fact, there was fraud in this matter.

Of course, when it comes to counterfeiting, those bandits are the originators.

At least half of their history is fabricated.

For the indigenous people, this relationship brought the two sides closer.

Next, the Central Plains Army gradually started trading with these indigenous people.

During the trading process, many products from the Central Plains were also favored by the indigenous people.

For example, exquisite porcelain, delicious tea, beautiful silk, and more, some handicrafts.

These beautiful products are very popular.

However, transactions between the two parties were extremely inconvenient.

Because the two sides did not have a unified currency, most of the transactions were conducted through barter.

Gradually, because of integrity, these indigenous people began to accept the Central Plains currency.

They even gradually fell in love with the Central Plains cuisine. They had previously found it hard to imagine that there were so many delicious foods in the world.

At the same time, the people from the Central Plains also taught them many things.

For example, the people from the Central Plains taught them more advanced farming methods.

Teach them how to make tires, how to make carriages and other tools.

They even gave them cattle, horses and other livestock and taught them farming techniques.

Thanks to the selfless help of the people from the Central Plains, the lives of the local indigenous people have been greatly improved.

These indigenous people became increasingly close to the people from the Central Plains.

Of course, all this help is also part of the Central Plains people’s plan.

In fact, without anyone noticing, the Central Plains has quietly begun cultural infiltration.

First, conquer them with delicious food.

Then, little by little, Confucianism was taught to them.

Confucianism actually has a very powerful brainwashing function.

They are gradually accepting Confucianism.

Then, the indigenous people began to learn Chinese, and even their eating and dressing habits gradually changed.

Everything went as they had planned, and everything went very smoothly.

Only Crown Prince Jia Cang was somewhat unhappy.

He thought that after arriving in the New World, he would experience swordplay and bloody battlefields.

He had never expected that after arriving here, there would be only construction and communication. How could he not be disappointed?

However, he actually gained a lot.

As a prince, he naturally had to learn the art of being an emperor. He also knew about cultural invasion.

But this was his first time to personally experience how all this was done up close.

This process also made Crown Prince Jia Cang feel deeply touched.

As time goes by, the indigenous people's trust and dependence on the Central Plains people is gradually deepening.

Without realizing it, they are changing.

Unconsciously, they developed some more beliefs.

……

The construction of Qidian City was extremely fast, and at the same time, they also built factories one after another.

Half a year later, they were attacked by bandits.

Of course, this group of bandits did not attack them, but the indigenous people who lived next to them.

These bandits naturally knew how powerful the Central Plains was.

They also knew that even if all their countries were combined, they would not be a match for the Central Plains.

So they just took action against the indigenous people.

This move was also a test by the robbers.

In fact, when Zhongyuan first came to this land, they had already received the news.

After all, the Central Plains fleet was too huge to be concealed.

After learning the news, they couldn't help but become alert.

Could it be that the Central Plains came to this land to snatch this land from them?

If that is the case, then they are in danger.

However, they are still not ready to give up their interests here.

From the day capital was born, every pore has been dripping with blood and filth.

With a profit of 50 percent, the capitalists will take desperate risks; with a profit of 100 percent, they will dare to trample on all human laws; with a profit of 300 percent, they will dare to risk the gallows.

And one mile of this land is more than 300 percent?
It's simply a huge profit.

Driven by such huge benefits, how could they be willing to give it up?

Therefore, they have been secretly observing what Zhongyuan is doing?
Soon, they discovered that after the Central Plains people arrived.

They did not start attacking and enslaving the indigenous people like them.

Instead, they built cities and showed goodwill to the indigenous people.

And they soon became friends with the indigenous people and gained their friendship.

This surprised the group of robbers.

Because they soon figured out the sinister intentions of the people in the Central Plains.

It turned out that these people from the Central Plains were planning to use a conciliatory strategy to enslave the indigenous people.

Moreover, these people from the Central Plains shamelessly say that they both share the same origin.

However, their appearance is indeed the same -

In fact, there are still some differences in appearance between the people in the Central Plains and the indigenous people.

But at least they all had black eyes, black hair and yellow skin, and some differences in appearance were not noticeable at all in the eyes of these bandits.

And their test this time was not even to test whether Zhongyuan would take action against them.

There is no need to test this, he will definitely take action.

The Central Plains sent so many people to this continent and was lenient towards the indigenous people. How could they possibly watch them massacre the indigenous people?
Their attempt was just to test the firepower of the Central Plains again.

Yes, although their previous two wars against the Central Plains had both ended in failure.

However, they did not give up or compromise.

Because of this year's efforts, their weapons have also made progress.

Moreover, this land is closer to their country.

But it is extremely far away from the Central Plains.

In terms of material transportation, it is obvious that they have an absolute advantage.

That's why they prepared this test.

While attacking the indigenous people, they also set traps, waiting for the Central Plains to take the bait.

Unexpectedly, their every move was completely controlled by the Central Plains.

What they didn't know was that at this time, Zhongyuan had already developed the camera.

Yes, the principle of the camera is not complicated.

In fact, the working principle of a camera is nothing more than recording video.

The difficulty lies in real-time transmission of information.

But nowadays, there are too many scientific researchers in Central China.

As long as they want, they can gather dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of people to overcome difficulties, and there is no reason why it will not come naturally.

With the cameras, they can know everything that is happening within a radius of dozens of miles.

At this time, a map of the surrounding area was hung next to Liu Xianglian.

He marked the locations of the bandits' divisions and began to study their marching routes.

At this moment, the most excited person was Prince Jia Cang.

How could Jia Cang not be excited?
He followed the army to the New World just to fight on the battlefield.

But after arriving here, I realized that there was no war to fight. Every day, I was just building.

Although he also learned a lot from it.

But he felt very uncomfortable because he couldn't fight.

And now, the war has finally begun.

Unexpectedly, Liu Xianglian looked at Jia Cong warily and said, "Boy, just give up on that idea. Just stay with me and don't go anywhere."

The prince fought hard, but Liu Xianglian would not allow him to go to the front line in person no matter what.

He also sent four personal guards to protect him closely, and they couldn't leave his side even when he went to the toilet.

What a joke, the prince followed him here, and Liu Xianglian bears a huge responsibility.

If anything happens to the prince, he will be held responsible.

Now the prince actually wants to go to the battlefield himself? Stop dreaming!
This is absolutely impossible!

In desperation, the prince had to give up.

……

Soon, the war broke out, and this group of bandits successfully tested the military power of the Central Plains.

However, this result is what they least want to see.

Because the Central Plains has become stronger than it was more than a year ago, so strong that it almost makes them despair.

It was so powerful that even though they sent out 30,000 troops, they were almost completely wiped out.

This made them tremble with fear.

However, even at this point, they still had no intention of giving up.

After all, the value of this continent is so great that they cannot give it up.

And they still have something to rely on.

Their reliance is that they are closer to their country and it is more convenient to mobilize supplies.

If they fight, they believe that they will be able to bring down the Central Plains.

As long as they own this land, they will be able to rise rapidly, eventually surpass the Central Plains, and finally destroy the Central Plains.

Therefore, after being defeated, they tested the military strength of the Central Plains and retreated decisively.

Prepare for a protracted war with the Central Plains. (End of this chapter)
