After the war, the Dragon Clan did not have enough strength to move south. Tianhao needed time to stabilize the internal situation and strive to build the powerful war machine of the "Northern Barbarians". Under such circumstances, Yuan Meng and Ling Xiao became the first choice for the leaders of harassment wars.

The young Regent stood up from the chair, walked up to the two, pressed their shoulders with both hands, and said firmly and calmly: "Go, prove with courage and blood that you have no shame to your ancestors. I swear to the great gods here——Everything in the future will be proof of war, the brave will receive enviable rewards, and the names of the cowards will be forgotten forever in shame and crying."

...

Spring is here.

During the war, the Dragon Clan launched a general mobilization. In addition to the main legions sent to the front line, they also recruited five million people in the rear and organized one hundred reserve legions. No matter any northern barbarian tribe, this was a huge mobilization scale that had never been seen in history. According to Tianhao's order, the scope of wartime mobilization was further expanded, from middle-aged people in the age of forty to thirteen-year-old "adult men and women" in the age of thirteen, all were included in the reserve management.

This is a national war, a race war in the true sense. If the war is defeated, there will be nothing left. Next, the whole tribe will accept the fate of being enslaved by white people. What is world peace and people equally believe in freedom of faith... All the actions and reasons that meet the social standards of the time in the civilized era and are scrambling to use so-called evidence to show their just behaviors and reasons in the face of absolute power rule is a fragile joke.

The whites ruled the world, and the northern barbarians could only live in shackles and shackles. Everyone would become slaves, including your children, and descendants of their bloodlines.

They will deal with giants like they would against a dog. In the eyes of white people, this is a kind of domestication, with a strong entertainment and conquest nature. Sometimes Tianhao feels very lucky. There are no books like "Uncle Tom's Hut" in this era, nor does it appear as the so-called "human rights equality" thinkers. To be fair, Tianhao actually does not like violent centralization, but at present, this is the most correct way to rule and lead the northern barbarians toward strength.

The five million reserves, which took turns to train, almost all the most dynamic people in the Dragon Clan. Fortunately, since the war started, all good news has been heard from the front line, which has eliminated the opportunity to join the war by the reserve army. Tianhao was able to steadily implement the "Great Northern Development Plan" formulated previously. Neither the road nor the construction of new settlements was greatly affected in the war.

Of course, the actual operation of firearms is indispensable for the reservist training. Fortunately, the scale of the military factory in Jeju Island has been expanding. Later, a series of factories were set up in Panshi City, Lianju, Xindu, Leijiao City and other places, and the weapon output has doubled. The total number of rifles allocated to the reserve army for training has reached more than 300,000.

When the war ended, so many troops were not used. Tianhao did not order the weapons distributed to various places to be reclaimed, but ordered the establishment of armed departments and militia command centers in various cities and villages, including newly built settlements, to be managed by a dedicated person, and military training will be conducted for the people in the jurisdiction if the situation permits.

As long as people who are not old and weak and cannot even walk, they must undergo military training at least twice a week, one hour each time. The main training content is the familiarity and use of guns and grenades. Even if the shooting skills are not good, they must know how to use them.

Tianhao did not deliberately issue relevant instructions on the market economy. The three major tribes have just merged, and various things can be said to be complicated. The dragon clan is its own basic foundation, and there will be no trouble in any case. From Panshi Village to Heijiao City, as Tianhao's identity has been upgraded again and again, the dragon clan members have become accustomed to this strict semi-militarized management. But for the tiger clan and the lion clan, they still need time.

Bullets have become something that can be used for circulation among the people of the Dragon, especially among the residents living in remote areas in the north, and even replace currency to some extent. Of course, this does not mean that the Dragons refuse to use currency. In fact, they have a high degree of acceptance of the Regent's new coins, especially the exquisitely crafted silver coins and auxiliary coins, which have successfully stabilized the market and were recognized by the Tigers and Lions.

Gold coins are rare because of the exquisite patterns produced by value and stamping technology. Some civilians even treasure gold coins as heirlooms.

After the implementation of the Great Northern Development Plan, the Dragon Clan began to become different from the past.

The biggest change is food. Tons of grain, massive amounts of food are unimaginable. This is also one of the reasons why Yuan Meng and Ling Xiao no longer retained the previous idea of ​​stubbornness and completely changed their minds and turned to Tianhao's side. In Yuan Meng's words, it is "I have never seen so much food in my life." Hunger can make people crazy, and it is difficult for people who have enough food to develop a disorderly mentality. In the past few years, Tianhao led the entire clan to reclaim nearly twice the arable land that was ruled by the King of the Cattle Clan, and coupled with the fine varieties of corn and potatoes from the southern part of the mainland... It is no exaggeration to say that the current grain output and reserves of the Dragon Clan are so much that they can't eat it.

Strictly speaking, there is not much difference between "sweet potato roast" and "Erguotou". They are both spirits made of grain. Whether it is sweet potato, corn or potato, the method is similar. This spirit was used to be a luxury product, and only aristocrats were qualified to enjoy it. As the cultivation area and harvest volume continued to increase, the supply of alcohol in the dragon market also increased.

Tianhao has experience from the civilization era. He knows that no matter whether it is suppressed or over-opened, it is not a good thing. Wine is an important topic that human civilization cannot avoid in any case. He did not issue a ban on alcohol, but issued a "Wine Limit Order" targeting the current situation of the dragon clan.

Minors are not allowed to drink more than the prescribed degree of spirits.

No drinking is allowed during wartime and special periods.

Encourage drinking of low-alcohol wine.

These are the core terms. Too strict regulations will reduce people's enthusiasm for alcohol and even cause a series of negative effects.

A healthy market is also gradually forming—from Xindu to Zhuosha City, the distance between north and south is more than thousands of kilometers. People have different needs for different products between regions. Whether it is fur, dried fruit, cloth or wine, it has led to the emergence of various economic industries based on silver coins and auxiliary coins, and has become the main source of taxation for the dragon clan.

In the third week after the spring, Leijiaocheng Steel Plant was officially put into operation.

There is a large open space in the north of the city, and convenient transportation has made Leijiao City a regional transshipment hub. Shanyouzhai, which had been engaged in ore trading for a long time with Tianhao, has long become rich, and the population has also increased sharply due to the rapid increase in commercial exchanges between the two places. The former leader of the village, Guangshou, has long been promoted to the city lord... The only thing that has not changed is the iron ore and peat that has abundant reserves in the surrounding areas of Shanyouzhai.

Guangshou led the whole city to build a railway connecting Leijiao City and Panshi City respectively. From then on, horses transported cargo boxes full of ore to travel between the two places, becoming the most important raw material production place for the Leijiao City Steel Plant.

The first generation of original lathes have long been abandoned, and now the lathes active in steel mills and military factories in various places are the third generation. The saying "steel production determines state power" is often spoken by the senior leaders of the Dragon clan. This is no longer the era of using steel to make spears and big knives. Steel means more firearms and artillery, which means an increase in the supply of folk daily necessities, and it also means a greater threat to the white people in the south.

Last year, overseas searchers brought back the rubber that Tianhao had dreamed of. Although the number was small, they started the development and related research projects of vulcanized rubber by the Dragon Family Chemistry Department.

The Ministry of Chemistry is a newly established department, belonging to the Ministry of Higher Technology, and is included in the unified management of the Ministry of National Defense. According to Tianhao's requirements, all members here are technical personnel, and the management has only set up five quotas, all from the military, without administrative bureaucrats.

The various lessons of the civilization era are vivid in my mind, and the differences in understanding the same things between administrative officials and soldiers are too great. Although the Kingdom coalition was repelled, the total number of white people in the south was too large and their strength was too strong. Tianhao must seize the time to speed up the progress and strengthen the entire ethnic group as much as possible.

There have been some results in the research on electricity. Fortunately, because of Tianhao, the Dragon Clan researchers did not need to fly kites in thunderstorms like Franklin, and confirmed some facts at the terrible cost of being burned by lightning. They tried to convert kinetic energy and heat energy into electricity. People built a hand-turned, small generator similar to bicycles, and used the most primitive method to create the first electric light of this era.

There are not many technical difficulties in making ordinary glass. Many workshops have skilled glass blowers. As for the method of extracting the air inside the light bulb, it sounds unique. It is a manual extraction device mainly made of animal urine bubbles. As long as the movement is skillful, this job is as simple as a child's play.

Tianhao knew the molecular structure of tungsten and also knew that this thing was heat-resistant. He taught the witches step by step to extract the first tungsten rod from the ore, and then produce the tungsten wire for use. Looking at the light bulb installed on the end platform of the hand-crank generator that emitted dazzling white light, more than 300 witches who observed and participated in the experiment felt the violent impact of their minds and thoughts for the first time. They shouted slogans such as "Long live the Regent", "The God is above", "This is Science", and like a group of madmen, they began the extremely fanatical research of this era.

These all happened last year. The Kingdom Alliance captured the Dragon Lock Pass and disrupted a lot of research progress. Whether it was the Dragon Science Academy or the Department of Chemistry, all forces were forced to shift towards the military.

A small hydropower station has been put into construction and is expected to be completed this summer. There is a theoretical basis for converting kinetic energy into electricity, and the experiment has been successful. The next thing to do is to expand the scale and generate a stable supply of electricity.

The dragon clan's silver coins were minted last year at seven million. According to Tianhao's order, the amount of silver coins this year must be at least doubled to this number. Unlike the paper money that was forced to issue additional issuance due to price expansion in the civilization era, although the basis for issuing additional silver coins is also linked to material output, the value of the currency itself and the purchasing power of the product are very strong. Especially when winning the Southern Kingdom Alliance, the capture of rich and large number of prisoners, it can be foreseen that the northern market will become hot in the next few years and the commercial scale will be further expanded.

Some new industries have emerged.

Take the former Deer tribe as an example. Some of them became professional tailors, and those with a lot of financial resources even opened small workshops. The military has too many orders, especially professional military uniforms, which is enough to make these garment workshops operate at full power. Of course, the production standards of military uniforms are different from civilian clothing. The requirements of wear resistance, anti-hanging, and cracking alone force people who want to make money to rack their brains to study fabrics desperately, and thus form a new discipline.

The blacksmith shops that were once seen everywhere were banned one after another. Tianhao ordered the steel industry to be nationalized and merged to form a steel enterprise. The original blacksmiths were trained to enter factories and become workers, and at the same time enjoyed shares, and began a large-scale group production.

People are needed everywhere, and the huge labor gap inevitably affects rural areas. Tianhao issued the strictest order since becoming the Regent: it is necessary to pay attention to grain production in various places, and the grain paid in single or double seasons in different regions must exceed previous years.

Improvement of farm tools has been underway. Ensuring that every household has at least one plowing ox is the most important policy determined as early as the era of Panshi City. The key to setting up armed forces and militia commands in various places is the support for local people during the farming and harvesting season. There is no combined harvester in this era, and when all labor can only be carried out by manpower, the most effective method is the assembly line work system.

...

Looking at the grain distributed in front of me, the tiger civilians could not believe that this was true.

From Gangwei City to Xuezhao City, all cities and villages have dispatched dragon civil officials. According to the standards of the civilized era, these civil officials are equivalent to cadres such as street office directors or township heads. At most, they are only at section level, with a low position, but have great power.

Unlike the lion tribe, many tiger tribes have experienced hunger. Their concept of food is always associated with words like "precious".

Civil officials taught them to breed step by step and supervised people to cultivate and sow at the prescribed time. In addition to the huge yield of corn and potatoes, other varieties came from "A43". There are the best wheat and oats in the world, and rice with a not-so-savory taste but an amazing yield.

Wulin is a true supporter. When he made the decision to abandon Hu Yong first, he regarded himself as a real dragon clan member.

He led the army to kill all the entire tiger royal family. Especially Hu Yaozong, he watched with his own eyes the whole family and the young and old beheaded collectively, and then hanged it on his tongue by Wu Lin with a red-burned hook. He howled alive for most of the day, and finally died in extreme pain.

In Wulin's view, all this is revenge.
