Chapter 2397 The deadline is approaching
Before Yuan Tan brought Du Kui, Wen's daughter and others back to Sizhao City, the place in Eastern Europe had officially entered land reclamation. The Slavs in this period essentially did not farm. As for how Slavs lived during this period, in fact, the Slavs at that time mainly relied on fishing and hunting.
The abundant output of the vast plains in Eastern Europe allowed the Slavs to easily support their tribesmen by fishing and hunting. Therefore, the Slavs occupied the second largest plain in the world and the largest black soil granary, but they just did not farm.
As for how high the output of the Eastern European plains was during this period, referring to the so-called "beating roe deer on the stick and scooping fish on the baton" during the reclaiming of the Great Northern Wilderness, although it is not so exaggerated, in fact, what I really want to say is actually the difference between reality and folk songs.
As the largest black soil granary in the world, it is used to grow grass. It can only be said that the Slavs of this period were really too low. This is truly fertile soil. The fertile black soil that could be built in super-large farms in the Soviet Union was used to grow grass. The Soviets and the Central Plains people would cry!
Naturally after spring began, Xu You began to teach the Slavs step by step to farm, but it was obvious that for the Slavs, who were born to drink and would fight after drinking, the Slavs didn’t order farming at all, and by the way, it was difficult for the Slavs to understand the meaning of farming!
After all, this nation does not farm, rely on the sky and the fields to eat a full meal. Its strong body was born for hunting. For them, there was no concept of farming at all. This is why the Slavs placed grass on the fertile black soil of Eastern Europe, and the Slavic people did not domesticate certain edible plants.
During this period, the Slavs had no concept of planting at all. They could find enough wild vegetables in the wasteland by hunting and searching at random. In this case, the Slavs had no concept of planting at all. Why did they have to plant these wild plants and choose the best quality ones from them to keep and not eat them, leaving the seeds to continue planting?
To put it bluntly, isn’t it because there is not enough food? I will keep my hope in the future, and the Eastern European plains are enough to raise the current number of Slavs, so the Slavs do not farm.
However, the root of future conquests is probably planted here. The so-called "no long-term thinking" must have immediate worries. The root of future conquests of the Slavs is probably caused by insufficient land output. However, the core talent of the Central Plains is probably farming.
Therefore, after determining the fertility of the Eastern European plains and even after Xu You sent someone to personally measure the fertile black soil in Eastern Europe, Xu You did not dare to tell anyone about this. He just silently protected the whole family of the people sent to measure the land, and buried everything he knew in his heart. Before the time came, Xu You would not even tell Xu Chen and others.
Because Xu You, who roughly measured the black soil in Eastern Europe, knew that the place he stood was enough to provide an empire as great as the Han Empire. If the Sizhao City, east of the Ula Mountains, which Xun Chen and others chose to establish near the banks of the Yisette River, could be called the place where the king's first rise was, then the black soil in Eastern Europe was enough to become an empire.
As long as there is a sufficient population, this flat black soil is enough to build a great empire. Xu You dare not tell anyone that this is a treasure land, an imperial career that cannot be formally developed and can only be controlled secretly. Fortunately, there are no enemies here, and the Slavs who occupy this place are basically sure that they are their own people.
However, at this time, Xu You had a very high IQ and was somewhat suspicious about whether Chen Xi knew this fact, which led to two possibilities. One was that Chen Xi did this on purpose, and the other was that Chen Xi waited for the Yuan family's choice. Of course, other branches would be divided into different branches, but this was not important.
Xu You carefully calculated the distance between the Eastern European Plain. It can be said that the sky is high and the emperor is far away. As long as the Slavs maintains the absolute dominance of the Eastern European Plain, it will be difficult for the Yuan family to cross the Ural Mountains, or create a way for the Eastern European Plain to maintain a strong opponent, and even the Yuan family will find it difficult to intervene. Then it is possible to cover all the facts behind the Yuan family.
At that time, unless the Han Dynasty can really surpass the extreme wall of the empire and cross the Yuan family to enfeoff Eastern Europe, the Yuan family will basically do whatever they want on the Eastern European plain. At that time, as long as the monarch is still on the horizontal line and relying on his strong foundation, he can at least firmly sit in the position of Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period!
Xu You hid everything in his heart and began to teach the Slavs to farm. The Slavs had a hammer in the east and a hammer in the west and sowed seeds casually. Xu You was almost angry and could not learn how to farm.
Fortunately, the Slavs still had the strength to farm and could not farm, but it was still possible to reclaim land. Even if they were to do it for a few random tricks, they sowed the seeds. For the sake of this fertile black soil, the seeds still germinated and they grew well.
However, the Slavs were not proactive after all, and such a professor had no practical significance. The Slavs didn't want to farm at all. Fortunately, Xu You's IQ is now so high that he soon came up with a solution, which greatly increased the Slavs' interest in farming.
Later, the Slavs worked hard to reclaim land. Of course, the meaning of this was not to farm, but Xu You taught the Slavs how to use grain to make wine, wine, etc. Grain and wine are the king!
For this reason, many Slavs steamed the seeds prepared by Xu You and started brewing wine, but were almost beaten to death by Xu You and others.
In view of the fact that grain can make wine, the Slavs finally began to work hard to reclaim land. The Slavs in Eastern Europe started to work hard to farm and indeed reclaimed a lot of black soil.
However, Xu You no longer has any hope for the Slavs' farming output. More than 80% of this nation may use most of the grain produced this year to make wine...
Overall, the Slavs were quite easy to talk to and were quite acceptable to Xu You, a guy who spreads civilization and words to them. He had no special feeling about Yifa and Yifu. As long as he could drink, everything was easy to say. As long as he was given a drink, nothing was a problem.
They even volunteered to bring weapons and equipment to fight Yuan Tan and the Romans, of course the purpose was to drink. Although they themselves had a grudge against the Romans, after a while, the Slavs did not resist becoming Yuan Tan's people and only asked to drink.
With this clear understanding, we can clearly see that the entire nation is addicted to alcohol and cannot extricate itself. Xu You is also amused and crying about this, but it is better to be willing to obey the education. Xu You is so obedient foreign tribe, so he is willing to satisfy their few wishes.
"Farm well in spring, and there will be food to make wine in autumn!" "I work hard today to drink better tomorrow." This is the slogan. In short, when the Slavs faced wine, their style was inexplicably distorted.
By this method, the Slavic people entered a civilized society three or four centuries earlier than Eastern Europe, and were no longer the previous fishing and hunting survival model. For them, wine could probably be regarded as a necessity for life.
When Xu You worked hard in Eastern Europe, Xun Chen was also very tired.
The Slavs needed to reclaim land and farm all the food they needed to go out from Xun Chen. In order to avoid famine before the autumn harvest, Xun Chen had to move around.
Fortunately, as long as I survived this summer, the Yuan family’s Sizhao City and the Eastern European Hidden Base were on track. Therefore, no matter how tired it was, Xun Chen had to find a way to survive this summer.
"What's the situation?" Xun Chen asked, looking at the more gray-haired Shen Pei.
"The Slavs are definitely the top warriors. They have the basic qualities to compete with our China. As far as the barbarians I have seen, the only ones who are qualified to compete with us are the orthodox Huns and Slavs." Shen Pei said solemnly.
"Well, Ziyuan also has such an evaluation. He also felt that if there were barbarians who could compete with us on the earth in the future, they would probably be the Slavs." Xun Chen nodded, not thinking that Shen Pei's evaluation was too high.
The more I understand this nation, the more Xun Chen feels that this nation has great potential. It’s a pity that this nation encountered China too early and could only turn into the firewood of Chinese civilization, making the flames of Chinese civilization burn even more.
"Since they are willing to accept our culture and move closer to us, then we will accept them. They have this qualification. Then let them be entangled with us and become one under the premise of having our culture." Xun Chen said slowly, "Let them become a part of our history, and in a hundred years, they will not distinguish between each other!"
Shen Pei nodded. The Slavs did not even have civilization, had religions completely formed, and they still belonged to tribes, but their force was beyond expectations. However, for a nation, this state was like having a body, and their thinking was like a piece of white paper.
In this case, there is no need to conquer too bloody and violently. It only needs to synchronize the other party's thoughts with the Han Dynasty, and the two sides will naturally merge.
If the ideological and cultural consistency is highly consistent, then the convergence is almost an inevitable result.
The current Slavs are even inferior to the Germans and Celtics in terms of culture and thought. However, the hard power of these two sides is somewhat weaker than that of the Slavs, and the integrity of cultural thought is not high enough, so the Slavs can barely stop it.
For the Han Dynasty, the Slav culture is basically a rhythm of being crushed. Moreover, the Han Dynasty itself is very strong, with strong hard power and strong cultural ideas. The Slavs were already drunk under the brainwashing of alcohol. At most, a generation of people even their identity will be recognized from the heart.
This is why even Shen Pei agrees to use this kind of gentle means to assimilate. The Slavs are so naive, and they are indeed alcoholic. There is no need to use iron-blooded means, sooner or later they are their own people.
"I plan to go west of Ural Mountain." Shen Pei said, reaching out to cover the white hair between her temples.
"Ziyuan has already met the Celtic female pope." Xun Chen put down the things in his hand when he heard this, sat upright and looked at Shen Pei and said.
"I know, I have to see you in person. The Slavs' heavy axe army has been trained. Well, it's not considered a good training. But they have finished dressing up. Their combat power is very strong and they may be stronger after drinking." Shen Pei nodded, and even felt like joking. Xun Chen couldn't laugh at all when facing such Shen Pei.
"Is the heavy axe army?" Xun Chen suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart, repeated silently, and then looked at Shen Pei, "Then you go, the decisive battle between Anxi and Rome is about to begin. If you can't go, it would be awful."
"Well, I will take it up then, and they don't need any defense. The next talented axe blade solidifies. After they are solidified, they are all the wheels in the car." Shen Pei said calmly. This is a legion with violent attack power.
"Well, go quickly, you can bring whatever you want after you come back." Xun Chen's expression was indescribable.
"Maybe I will bring the female pope back. I heard that he was only in his teens and was already a master of breaking the boundaries." Shen Pei said half-closed her eyes with a faint fatigue.
"As long as you come back alive, let alone bringing the female pope, we won't stop you even if you want to marry the other party." Xun Chen joked, but there was not much smile.
Shen Pei is gradually approaching the point where the oil is exhausted and the lamp is dry. It is difficult for Xun Chen to guess how long it will take, but looking at Shen Pei's gradually gray hair, Xun Chen already understood that there is not much time left.
"Hahaha, you are really good at joking. I am a person who is so old and bullies the little girl, but she seems not a human being, right?" Shen Pei still has the heart to joke. Xun Chen's mood is a little better, but it is really just a little bit.
"Well, Ziyuan carefully looked up the myths of the Celtics. The female pope was not a human being, but it was different from the immortals in the Central Plains. It was equivalent to an ancient method of letting gods and demons descend on her. However, what she descended was spirit, and part of it should come from the fantasies of the Celtics." Xun Chen nodded and said.
"Okay, I roughly understand." Shen Pei also came into contact with a lot of relevant knowledge and conducted in-depth research. Now the inquiry is just a final comparison to ensure that he can truly complete his guess.
"Then I'm leaving. If not, I will go south from there. Maybe it's up to you in the future." Shen Pei said slowly, with almost no fear of death in his eyes, and only a regret of not being able to fulfill his ideals.
