Enter the Tang Dynasty with space

Chapter 142 Spring is here
The establishment of Yunzhou Medical College was an epoch-making feat. With the emergence of many new things, Datang began to move towards a new starting point in terms of technology.

Yang Zheng, on the other hand, put more energy into controlling the entire army and fully developing the provinces outside the Great Wall.

The military regions strictly follow Yang Zheng's instructions, stick to the city in the border areas, and vigorously develop the military construction in the hinterland, especially the training of special forces. The military regions have done very well. As an instructor, Yang Zheng's advanced military theory has been well promoted.

At the same time, with the arrival of spring, more than [-] mu of land has been reclaimed on the grassland. Although the soil quality of the desert land is not good, it still cannot be underestimated in terms of planting crops due to the space spring water.

The imperial court appropriated soybeans, wheat and other seeds. In addition to the seeds provided by the imperial court, there were many seeds taken out of Yang Zheng's space.

The first thing to be planted was corn. Yang Zheng brought more than 100 catties of corn from Guocun, and after distributing them to the common people who were willing to grow corn, everyone planted all of them in strict accordance with the technique taught by Yang Zheng. Although the seeds A bit small, but still planted nearly 20 acres of land.Yang Zheng also planted two acres himself, and asked his servants to take care of them continuously.If there is no accident, after this year, the entire province outside the Great Wall and Yunzhong County will have corn.

These corn seeds did not disappoint either, and after two days, they broke through the ground.The emerald green corn seedlings danced in the breeze, which gave great encouragement to the people, and they offered up the corn fields of each family as if they were gods.Yang Zheng had mentioned the yield per mu of corn a long time ago, which made these people firm in their beliefs, and they continued to water, fertilize, loosen the soil, and pull weeds on a regular basis.Now that the climate is stable and the hours of sunshine are getting longer, the corn is growing very normally, the only thing that is not normal is that they are growing too fast.

Worried about the strong wind, Yang Zheng moved many big trees out of the space, and then ordered his troops to transplant them on the wind vents, forming rows of windbreak forests. The grassland is too wide, which consumed Yang Zheng's 10,000+ big trees , barely blocked a few big vents.Otherwise, once this kind of corn grows corn stalks, it will definitely be scraped up and down, which will affect the yield.

Yang Zheng also brought more than 200 catties of potatoes over here. These potatoes were cut into small pieces according to their teeth, and then buried in the ground. The potatoes were basically fertilized at one time, and there was no compound fertilizer in this era, so under the potatoes When planting, a large amount of farmyard manure and potato seeds must be put into the ground together. The farmyard manure has great stamina and can still play a big role during the growth period of potatoes.

A few days later, the potato seedlings also came out of the ground. Due to the effect of the farmyard manure, the green pigment of the potato seedlings was very strong, which made people even more delighted to see.These potatoes only need to be ridden when they are fruiting, both to increase yields and to prevent the sun from turning the potatoes green.

Potatoes are a longevity food with high starch content, which is conducive to improving the physical fitness of the people.And it doesn't take too much time to take care of it, and it can get twice the result with half the effort. It is a typical good crop.

After planting these two crops, the people then planted soybeans and spring wheat. People in Yunzhong County planted more of these crops.The people in the province outside the Great Wall and the Turks and other ethnic groups have no interest in growing these things at all. After they planted corn and potatoes, they began to herd sheep and cattle, because they were not interested in things with low yields.However, with the watering of the spatial spiritual spring, the originally low-yielding crops can be greatly improved. Yang Zheng secretly thought that people who did not plant these two crops in the future would probably regret it if they saw the high yields of others. Will follow up next year.Take your time, who made these nomadic tribes not accustomed to farming life.

And some depressions near the Yunhe River and its tributaries have also been developed into rice fields one after another. Although rice is not very nourishing for the body, it is still an unbeatable appetite. Besides, there are many southerners serving as soldiers in the northern region. I like to eat rice.With such superior conditions in the Yunhe River Basin, it would be a waste of land not to grow rice. There is no harm in having a lot of food. It will be very good to dump a large amount of food to other countries and earn some extra money for Datang.

There are a lot of rice seeds in the space, and it doesn’t matter how many you want to plant. Don’t look at it as hybrid rice, but after the space recombination gene, these hybrid rice can be directly planted. Some areas with good climates in the space have already been planted. In fact, It has been proved that all can germinate, become seedlings, and then thrive.

Pieces of paddy fields are scraped evenly, and then evenly sprinkled with rice seeds.Due to the large-scale planting now, Yang Zheng decided to grow seedlings first, and then use the method of throwing seedlings to plant seedlings on every paddy field.

According to the growth of the rice seedlings, the rice fields will be gradually filled with water, and at the same time, the rice fields will be fertilized regularly. Now there is too much farmyard manure on the pastures. The old, weak, sick and disabled who have nothing to do will pick up cow dung and horse manure and collect them for fermentation. Then it is sent to the rice fields.But you have to be careful, otherwise the fertilizer will be too heavy, and the rice seedlings will be burned.

Yang Zheng was very satisfied with the condition of the seedling field. The space hybrid rice germinated within a few days, which proved that this new type of rice could be grown on the earth.After various technologies have been promoted, Yang Zheng will no longer take care of them. Specifically, two enthusiastic people, Ma Zhou and Shan Deng, are in charge. They are very interested in these fresh crops, and they really hope to do it It would be best to try to add more food to Datang. After all, they watched too many scenes of starving the whole family in the turbulent era. Now that they have the opportunity to change, they are naturally full of enthusiasm.Yang Zheng was also happy to let the two of them participate, so that he would have more time to relax.

The only thing Yang Zheng regrets is the planting of sweet potatoes. Since Li Shimin concentrated all the sweet potatoes in the Guanzhong area for cultivation, Yang Zheng only has the few big sweet potatoes left over from last year's selection of "Sweet Potato King" .

I don't care about it now, first cut up the "sweet potato kings" and plant them in their own land. After planting half an acre of land sparsely, and pouring the space spirit spring for several days, Yang Zheng felt relieved that the sweet potatoes sprouted Protruding from the ground, although the sweet potato king is big, it can also be used as grain. It seems that it will not be long before these sweet potato vines that continue to grow can grow a wide sweet potato field.

"I planted a seed, and it finally sprouted. When autumn comes, there will be a harvest." Yang Zheng adapted "Little Apple" leisurely.Now that it has entered April, it is the real spring and the flowers are blooming. The prairie affected by the space spring has ushered in the recovery of all things. The grass is growing wildly, the leaves are shining, and all kinds of crops are growing happily.This was enough to make Yang Zheng feel good. Not to mention singing "Little Apple", even dancing Yangko should be done.Farmers have land, and crops grow in the land, so that farmers can live and work in peace and contentment, and the country can develop because of this. Datang is still based on agriculture. When agriculture is highly developed, it will definitely bring about a huge improvement in the strength of the country. , Those surrounding countries that repeatedly provoke Datang should be beaten!

Everywhere on the desert grassland, people of all ethnic groups can be seen singing and dancing to celebrate the coming of the good day. Now everyone has food and shelter, and their health is getting better and better. The harmonious coexistence among ethnic groups also provides favorable conditions for the increase of population. The phenomenon of intermarriage among Turkic, Tiele and other ethnic groups is increasing day by day, and the families are also very harmonious, which makes all the officials in power smile.

At the same time, the excavation of artificial rivers in the Mobei area has also entered a breakthrough stage of progress. Under the guidance of water conservancy experts, the Yunhe River was excavated along the direction of the Gobi Desert. These areas are extremely desolate and uninhabited.Yang Zheng's goal is to completely transform the Gobi Desert. With rivers passing through and space springs nourishing, grass will gradually grow in these places, and then gradually restore their vitality.About [-] Turkic captives are engaged in excavation work. The Turkic captives are full of pride when they see the ice and snow on the grassland melted one by one along the Yunhe River they dug. They did it, and the Turkic captives gradually calmed down. They firmly believed that as long as they worked hard and did well, they would be released as prisoners by the Tang Dynasty sooner or later, and then they would integrate into the country of the Tang Dynasty and become Tang people in an upright manner!

With all the work being carried out smoothly, Yang Zheng lay on a newly made sofa and laughed loudly: "Hahahaha, okay, it's great. With me, Datang will not be lonely. I'll come Come to the Tang Dynasty and live a more prosperous life than in the 21st century!"

"21st century? What new vocabulary? Commander, it's not good, the Northwest Military Region has sent an urgent report, and the Turkic people have started to make trouble again!" He Zongxian walked in and handed over an urgent report from the front line.

"Commander lightly: 15 Turkic people from the Western Regions, led by Jieli's adopted son Ashina Sugui, launched an attack on Jiuquan City on April 4! Our department is now dispatching troops to defend Jiuquan City, please Instructions from the Commander!" The content of the military newspaper explained the current situation concisely.

With a snap, Yang Zheng sat up and slapped the coffee table: "Damn it, I've only had a good life for a few days, and the Turkic people are making trouble again? Zong Xian, pass on my order to order the Northwest Military Region to defend the Turkic people with all their might." At the same time, divide the troops to prevent the surprise attack of the Tubo people. Then I ordered the first division, the second division, and the third division of the North China Military Region to set off immediately, from Mobeirao to the back of the Turkic people, and attack on both sides. The 15 Turkic people must be killed Get rid of them all, by the way, that Ashina will return quickly and capture him alive, when the time comes, I will use his head to make a chamber pot!"

"Yes, Commander!" He Zongxian held back his laughter. Others used the heads of enemy chieftains to make wine cups, but Yang Zheng made chamber pots. This brother-in-law is really an interesting person.
