The female doctor farmed the land, bought a husband and set up a separate household
Chapter 156 3 happy arrival
There is no doubt that Tucheng is the best run city so far.
The tall city walls stood majestically on the vast sand, the black city gates were solemn and majestic, and on the walls, soldiers in full armor stood every few steps.
The order in the city was even more orderly, with patrolling soldiers everywhere on the streets. The merchants on both sides of the streets and the businessmen from all over the place were all very busy doing their own things. Although it was busy and lively, with all kinds of languages mixed together, there was absolutely no one causing trouble.
All of this originated from Yan Ping.
Now Yan Ping is still a captain of a thousand men, and he has been captured by barbarians before, so he puts the safety of the entire Tucheng first, and everything in the city is managed according to the highest militaristic standards.
Thanks to this, Tucheng is the safest place at the junction of Asia and Europe.
Those extremely ferocious horse bandits didn't even dare to harass the people who were farming outside the city, let alone attack this city.
But the Ma bandits harassed the caravans traveling between Europe and Tucheng, which was intolerable to Si Chenan and Jiang Sining.
So after arriving in Tucheng, Si Chenan immediately asked Yan Ping to gather all the cavalry, about 10,000 people, and prepared to personally go into battle to suppress the bandits.
However, before officially setting off, Si Chenan still followed the convention and asked Jiang Sining for his opinion.
When Jiang Sining heard that Tucheng only had 10,000 cavalrymen, he felt that it was far from enough.
This time, she not only wanted to wipe out the horse bandits, but also wanted to take over Europe once and for all, completely defeat and overthrow the nobles and the royal family, and let ordinary people own land and equal rights.
If there are 10,000 people, after taking over the territories of the nobles or the royal family, they will assign some people to govern each place, but I am afraid that there will not be enough people halfway through.
The troops and immigrants coming from Daxia are still on the way and it will take at least a month for them to arrive.
So manpower is an issue.
"But I can't feel at ease when I think about those caravans being robbed by bandits at any time."
Si Chenan's worries are real. Now the people of Daxia are living a prosperous and good life, so how can the people in other places suffer from disasters?
"Your Majesty, this is my fault," Yan Ping said, "for not building a stronger army sooner."
"You've done a great job."
More than 10,000 cavalrymen can actually sweep anywhere, but Jiang Sining's requirements are a bit high, and he wants to solve the problem once and for all in a short time.
After some discussion, Jiang Sining decided not to wait for Daxia's army.
Two hundred thousand people had migrated to Tucheng before, and these newly formed armies were recruited from among them to be responsible for maintaining local order and management tasks in the future.
I thought that the people of Tucheng owned a lot of land and lived a rich life, so not many people were willing to join the army.
As a result, as soon as the news was released, the place where soldiers were recruited was instantly surrounded by crowds of people. In half an hour, the queue formed several miles long, forcing Yan Ping to set up recruitment points throughout the city.
Two days later, the number of conscripts exceeded 5.
Looking at the densely packed recruits standing in the open space outside the city, Jiang Sining finally realized what a true fighting nation is.
Fifty thousand new recruits would require an astronomical amount of logistical supplies, but this was not a problem for Jiang Sining.
Now, in addition to Daxia's continuous supply of massive resources, Australia Prefecture and North America Prefecture can also provide food and meat. In addition, Tucheng itself has a large amount of storage, so it is more than enough to support 50,000 soldiers.
However, there are enough people for the time being, but there are not enough horses, and many of the new recruits do not know how to ride horses.
Without horses, their mobility was very poor, and they had almost no advantage when encountering cavalry from other parts of Europe.
Just when Yan Ping was worried about this, Jiang Sining took out three hundred chariots from the space.
When she left Daxia, she asked the university's School of Mechanical Engineering to continuously produce chariots, and it had already undergone two technical upgrades: miniaturization of steam engines and installation of artillery.
Today's chariots are no longer as huge and bulky as they were in the beginning. Instead, they are not much bigger than ordinary carriages, and have cannons with long barrels, which makes them look even more powerful.
With these three hundred chariots, these new recruits will be able to achieve coordination between infantry and tanks. No matter how powerful the enemy's cavalry is, they will be as fragile as scarecrows in front of the super-fast steel chariots.
After a few days of intensive training, Si Chenan could not wait any longer and led the cavalry to take the lead.
More than 10,000 cavalrymen were divided into 50 small teams and, like a large net, began to pounce on the European bandits.
Good news came in frequently from the first day. Five days later, all the horse bandits near Tucheng were wiped out. Jiang Sining ordered the cavalry to assemble and begin to advance towards the Ouzhou Palace.
However, Si Chenan was also reasonable. He did not attack the nobles or lords directly when he met them. Instead, he first persuaded them to hand over their land and distributed it to the ordinary people in the territory. From now on, everyone was equal and accepted the jurisdiction and governance of Daxia.
How could these lords, who had enjoyed hundreds of years of wealth and splendor, be willing to give up their property? But they could not defeat the enemy, so they all retreated into their castles.
Jiang Sining knew that it was time for the chariot army to show its power.
Three hundred chariots and fifty thousand fully armed soldiers came like a black tide. Just one shell from a chariot was enough to easily blast open the castle gate.
The local nobles and lords were so scared that they fled out the back door, but the cavalry led by Yan Ping were no pushovers and caught up with them in no time.
Those who surrender can enjoy the same treatment as ordinary people, and those who resist stubbornly will be killed without mercy!
There is no need to show mercy to the enemies of the people.
In this way, one lord after another's castles were taken down, and their property and lands were distributed to the common people in their territories.
And every time he passed through some places, Si Chen'an ordered the construction of a small town, left two chariots and several hundred soldiers to form a county government, and selected capable people to serve as county magistrates.
The entire system is almost the same as that of Daxia.
The people, who had been oppressed by the nobles for generations, were suddenly liberated. They had their own land and were even given cattle, sheep, horses, etc. Naturally, they cheered for the rule of Daxia.
After the immigrants from Daxia arrive, Jiang Sining will send them to these conquered places to live with the locals. He believes that within a few years, these places will be assimilated and become the true inherent territory of Daxia.
While Si Chenan led his army to sweep across Europe, Jiang Sining was not idle in Tucheng.
After accompanying Queen Mother Chen for a few days, she brought a team of several hundred workers to a desolate desert area, took out a huge machine of her own design from space, and began to dig wells frantically.
"Your Majesty, this is a desert," said Xia Shan, who was responsible for protecting Jiang Sining. "We have dug at least 30 feet deep. At most, the soil is moist. I don't think it is possible to dig out water. How about changing to another place?"
Jiang Sining smiled but said nothing and ordered the laborers to continue beating.
Just after scrapping hundreds of drill bits, she suddenly smelled an unpleasant odor and was immediately perked up.
"coming!"
"What's coming?" Xia Shan asked in confusion, "Water?"
When he looked at the wellhead, he found that something had indeed been pumped out, but it was not clear well water, but a sticky black liquid with a very unpleasant smell.
"what is this?"
Everyone was frightened.
In their view, this black liquid is an ominous thing.
Jiang Sining picked up a little bit with her finger and smelled it. After confirming that this was what she wanted, she asked the workers to start retrieving the drill rod one section at a time.
As the drill pipe was pulled out, more and more black liquid came out of the well.
After all the drill rods were pulled out, the black liquid actually spurted out from the ground to a height of two or three meters!
The next work was even more difficult. Jiang Sining took out a large number of iron pipes and lowered them down the well one section at a time. This would prevent the oil well from collapsing or oil from leaking into the surrounding land.
After the iron pipe is lowered to the bottom, a crude valve is installed at the wellhead to prevent the oil from bubbling up. And like a faucet, it can be opened whenever you want to use it.
She felt that the god of luck was on her side as she struck an artesian oil well on her first try.
After everything was installed, she ordered the workers to build a high wall around it and dispatched hundreds of soldiers to guard it.
"My lady, what is this stuff used for?" Xia Shan looked at the barrels of oil in front of him and asked, "I heard from the locals that there is a black dragon buried underground here, and this stuff is the blood of the black dragon."
Jiang Sining smiled and said, "It's not black dragon blood, it's called oil."
"oil?"
Xia Shan’s eyes widened. There is oil in stones?
"Yes, oil," Jiang Sining said, "With this thing, tanks can be made smaller and run faster in the future. And if we want to go to the Tiangong, we have to rely on it."
Is it so powerful?
Jiang Sining had several hundred barrels of oil loaded into the space.
Now they only have crude oil, and they have to find ways to refine it when they return. She doesn't know much about this, so she can only rely on collective efforts.
However, she believes that human wisdom is infinite, and in a few years, she will be able to ride on the world's first diesel locomotive.
"My queen, you have worked so hard for so long, please go back to the city and rest."
Jiang Sining touched her already big belly and realized that she really needed to rest.
During the time at sea, she and Si Chenan broke through the barriers between men and women and became pregnant with twins, who are now more than seven months pregnant.
She planned to give birth in Tucheng, hoping that Si Chenan could deal with the European nobles and kings before the little ones were born.
This can be considered a triple blessing.
