Chapter 795 After Missing, I Never Want to Miss It Again
Some people may say that 44 billion is too large, but in fact it is not the case.The Jin Dynasty did not have its own currency system. Before Ran Ming minted new money in the early stage, the Jin Dynasty used Wuzhu money, or Shen Lang money, from the Eastern Han Dynasty.

However, the minted copper coins are not as beautiful as the cold-rolled Ran Wei Xin coins in terms of fineness, and Ran Ming adopted a clear ratio of copper, seven, lead, and three, and the currency value is stiff.

In the Jin Dynasty, the gap between the rich and the poor was actually very large. Even for an ordinary middle-class family (more than [-] mu of land and less than [-] mu of land), the total family output value was between hundreds of millions or tens of millions of dollars. )
For Wei Guo, it is also a very beneficial thing to dispose of a sum of old equipment and make a small profit.Ran Ming did not hide the news about the purchase of military supplies between the Jin and Wei Dynasties.Instead, they used newspapers to spread the news everywhere with great fanfare.As Ran Ming expected, when Huan Wen heard the news, Huan Wen really couldn't sit still.

Huan Wen was the only king with a different surname in the Jin Dynasty (there was also a Chen Liu Wang Cao family) who had real power. His honor and wealth were ultimately due to Huan Wen's tyrannical military strength.If Huan Wen's direct descendants of the Xifu Army hadn't been there, someone would definitely have dealt with him.I don't know if Huan Wen ever thought about buying military equipment from the state of Wei before, but Huan Wen sent his confidant, Xi Chao, to envoy the state of Wei.

Yizhou is also the treasure island of Taiwan for later generations, and Taiwan has been China's territory since ancient times.Since Soochow began to formally garrison troops during the Three Kingdoms period, it has been included in the rule of China.But there was a common problem in ancient China, that is, not paying attention to the ocean.Ancient Chinese warships also usually took the form of tall flat-bottomed ships. Such warships are naturally not dangerous in rivers and lakes.But on the sea, once the wind and waves are not big, the warship will capsize.

Although the Eastern Jin Dynasty retreated to the south of the Yangtze River, due to the strength of the navy, they did not pay much attention to Yizhou.Although the government did not pay much attention to this island, many people moved to Yizhou.Sun Hao of Eastern Wu succeeded to the throne. Like Emperor Chongzhen, he wanted to save the country from dying, but his luck was not good.At this time, Sun Hao changed, he became broken.Sun Hao showed his cruel side, which caused the people's resentment to boil.Many people in Wu couldn't bear Sun Hao's tyranny, so they went to sea to survive.

And it was the first batch of mainland Han people who landed in Yizhou at this time.However, these Wu people have neither organization nor core leadership, and their numbers are also in a weak position. All in all, at this time, the Han people are living attached to the indigenous tribes.

Later, the five routes of the Jin State defeated Wu, and after the fall of Soochow, the survivors of Soochow, unwilling to submit to the rule of Sima, began to move to Yizhou.Due to the migration of some gentry, especially the heavy taxation in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, more people could not bear the oppression of taxation, and gradually formed large and small Han villages in Yizhou.When Ran Zhi landed in Yizhou, the entire Yizhou already had [-] to [-] Han people.

The 30 to 50 Han people are naturally too weak compared to the 2000 to [-] indigenous people.But the aborigines in Yizhou are not a unified whole.If the nearly [-] Han people unite, although it is impossible to dominate Yizhou, at least self-protection should not be a problem.However, the nearly [-] Han people were divided into villages of [-] to [-] people, living in the western plains of Yizhou. The large villages had [-] people, and the small ones had only a few hundred people.

The situation of these Han people is not good.They were often oppressed by the local aborigines, who lived in the jungle and were like savages who drank blood. They often attacked the settlements of the Han people and robbed them of their livestock, food and women, causing great harm to the local Han people.

At this time, Ran Zhi set foot on Yizhou with his nearly two thousand operas.

"My lord, you can see that this is a natural big port. Surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack." Yang Yun pointed to the landing point and introduced to Ran Zhi: "There is only one waterway to pass through. There are some small islands that can be used as beacon towers to warn, if managed properly, this is an excellent foundation for the emperor."

In fact, Yang Yun didn't know where they landed, which happened to be Keelung, Taiwan's second largest port.Keelung is a good natural harbor with narrow and long waterways, so that he can avoid the siege from all sides.From the initial disdain for Yizhou, a land of alienation, Ran Zhi gradually paid more attention to it.

When Ran Zhi had a total of four ships sailing, one was destroyed and more than 100 people were lost.Now Ran Zhi has only three ships left, among which there are more than 5 people, 400 self-reinforcing warriors, more than [-] recruited sailors, and the family members of Yang Yun's trilogy.Now Ran Zhi's department has more than [-] shi of grain and a team of three to four hundred craftsmen.

After landing in Yizhou, more than half of this young immigrant team began to build a city. Building a city is not an easy task. Although Yang Yun made sufficient preparations, he really started to build a city. Only then did he realize that what they lacked There are too many things.After seven days, Ran Zhi's troops set up a simple semi-permanent camp.

After checking the location where the road was opened and the city was built, Ran Zhi chose to be backed by the Wuzhishan Mountains, because this is Ran Zhi's base, so Ran Zhi attaches great importance to it.It was originally planned to adopt the traditional Han people's method of building the city, which is the method of boiling soil and ramming the city.But it's not practical here.There are a lot of rocks here, and it is easy to mine, so Ran Zhi decided to build the city by building a stone city.

Due to the extensive application of pulley blocks, even with manpower, stones weighing one or two tons can be lifted and moved. Although this greatly facilitates the progress of the fortification project, the problem of lack of labor cannot be solved.

Yang Yundao: "My lord, there are a lot of natives in Yizhou, especially in the mountains and forests there are many savages who drink blood. These savages often attack the people we are alone, which caused great trouble for us to build the city."

Ran Zhi came to Yizhou with infinite longing, but was inevitably attacked by the natives.Ran Zhi thought for a while and said, "If we want to protect the safety of the camp, how many soldiers can we send out?"

Yang Yundao: "Now the outlying camps have been established. With those ditches and traps, neither wild beasts nor savages can touch them. Yun dismantled ten eight-ox crossbows from the big ship. With these eight-ox crossbows , Even if we encounter 200 savages, we will not be able to rush into the camp. In the case of protecting the camp, we can still send out up to [-] soldiers!"

Ran Zhi said: "Although we still have more than 5 shi of grain, although there is no food problem in a short period of time, it is not a long-term solution after all to sit and eat the mountains and empty mountains. Zhi plans to ask General Yang to lead some soldiers to explore around to find places where grain can be grown. Also look for my Chinese people."

Yizhou has abundant rainfall, fertile land and rich mineral resources.It's just that most of the area is covered by virgin forest.Countless Aboriginal people live either in the forest or in the mountains.Numerous indigenous tribes are equivalent to a mixed system of primitive society and slavery society. Although these indigenous tribes occupy a vast area of ​​Yizhou, their lives are very low because of their low productivity. poor.

The aborigines in Yizhou are very xenophobic, and wars often break out among the various tribes.Of course, the scale of the war is very small, but it is extremely cruel. The losing party will often have all the men of the tribe slaughtered, and the women will become spoils of war.The level of civilization of these natives is very low.

At first, those who could not live in Soochow came to Yizhou across the ocean. These immigrants built their own homes with their hands and hard work.In the beginning, the Han people were able to live in peace with the aborigines.But soon, the aborigines were jealous of the wealth created by the Han people.The lazy indigenous people would not want to obtain these wealth through labor. They chose the way of plundering by force and used cruel means to plunder the wealth of the Han people.

In the slaughter of the aboriginals, the Han people paid a heavy price.Despite their fierce resistance, the Han Chinese have always been at a disadvantage compared to the large number of natives.However, even so, the Han people have persisted for more than 100 years!
In fact, Wu Village does not mean that the survivors of the Wu Kingdom cherish the memory of their homeland. In the beginning, it was just a village dominated by people with the surname Wu. More than 100 years ago, the ancestors of Wu Village set off from Quanzhou across the sea and arrived here.They found that the land in Daduxi (Wuxi) was fertile, and they began to breed near Daduxi.Wu Village was originally close to the Central Basin, and the villagers lived a life of men farming and women weaving.After decades of breeding, the population of Wu Village has increased significantly.Especially 30 years ago, the nearby Zhou Village, Liu Village, and Tianzhuang were all merged into Wu Village, which caused the population of Wu Village to soar to nearly 2000.

Ordinarily, a village with a population of 2000 would not dare to provoke even the indigenous tribes.However, Wu Village had internal problems.Since the establishment of Wu Village more than 100 years ago, the position of village head has been held by people surnamed Wu.However, after the last village chief surnamed Wu died of illness ten years ago, the position of village chief was not passed on to the village chief's son, Wu Qubing, who was eight years old at the time.Instead, it was passed on to the village elder Liu Daniu.

Originally, there was nothing wrong with this, but when Liu Daniu was seriously ill three years ago, he did not pass the position of village head to Wu Qubing, but to his eldest son Liu Meng.

At this time, the internal conflicts in Wu Village broke out. Although Wu Village merged Zhou Village, Liu Village, and Tianzhuang, the population of Wu Village was nearly 2000.But at this time, Wu Village's population is still dominated by people surnamed Wu.There are more than 900 people surnamed Wu in Wu Village, accounting for nearly half of them.Wu Qubing was already 15 years old when he was born. Although he is not that old in later generations, men have already married and had children in this era.

Wu Bing and Liu Meng had a dispute over the village chief.

Naturally, people surnamed Liu with a population of less than [-] were defeated, and Liu Meng was expelled from Wu Village.But Liu Meng, unwilling to fail, embarked on a road of no return.After Liu Meng was expelled from Wu Village, he defected to the Arikagai tribe.The Arika tribe is a tribe with a matrilineal social system, and women maintain power.Liu Meng is tall and mighty, and well educated, appearing to be gentle.Relying on his good looks, Liu Meng married Sangu, the patriarch of the Arika tribe.

A year later, the third aunt was ill due to dystocia and could not take charge of the clan affairs. The affairs in the tribe gradually fell into Liu Meng's hands, so Liu Meng came to hold the third aunt to order the princes.In this way, the war between the Arika tribe and Wu Village broke out.Wu Village, which used to live in harmony, suffered a heavy loss.Fortunately, Wu Qubing was not a waste either. After the initial panic, Wu Village organized the young and strong to fight back against the Arika tribe.Wu Bingji invited the surrounding in-laws and villages to help him with a promise of great profit, but repelled the Arika tribe's attack.

After the initial defeat, Liu Meng was also unwilling to fail, so he united several other tribes to besiege Wu Village, and then divided up and won Wu Village's in-law villages, letting them sit on the sidelines.In this way, Wu Village won less and lost more. After losing a large number of young and strong, the family had to move north.

Wu Village moved north step by step, while Liu Meng led the Arika tribe to press on step by step.This war, which has broken out for three years, has already caused heavy casualties.The population of Wu Village has also been reduced from the initial 2000 to less than 800.More than half of them are old and weak.Ordinarily, Wu Village escaped, and the Arika Department obtained the ripe fields developed by the people of Wu Village, and obtained a lot of wealth from Wu Village, so it should feel satisfied.However, Liu Meng knew very well the truth that fighting a tiger won't kill him, so he continued to encourage people from Arika's department to attack Wu Village.

Today's Wu Village has been moved to the vicinity of Malingkeng Creek, and this newly established Wu Village is their foothold.The fence surrounded by wooden stakes can not only stop wild animals, but also serve as a defense function.

On this day, just after dawn, Wu Village heard the rapid sound of gongs.It turned out that people from the Ministry of Arika had found a new settlement in Wu Village.Countless natives looked at the panicked village with greedy faces.After more than three years of war, although a large number of people in the tribe died in battle, their gains were still huge.In particular, a large amount of wealth created by the people of Wu Village for a century has fallen into the pockets of these people.

Liu Meng used victory and wealth to intensify the Arikagai tribe. These Arikagai tribe warriors, who have repaid the sweetness of the robbery, have fallen in love with this kind of life.Even in the process of attacking Wu Village, the Arika Ministry wiped out several other Han villages. They killed all the Han men, leaving only women and wealth.Violent robbery is like an addictive poison, as long as it is paid off, it will be difficult to quit.

"Village chief, it's these bastards from the Ministry of Arika again." The young man who spoke was originally a villager from Wu Village's in-law Zhangzhuang.And this young Zhang Zhiqiang is also Wu Qubing's brother-in-law.However, the villagers of Zhang Village betrayed Wu Village under Liu Meng's coercion. Although they did not attack Wu Village, they chose to be neutral in the battle between Arika and Wu Village.Who knew that after Liu Meng defeated Wu Village, he would target the Zhang clan again.

PS: The rumors are not right recently, everyone read in silence, don't get excited.
