Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!

"Thank you, brother, for your understanding!"

Zhao Che smiled, and he also agreed with Fusu's idea.

"Let's talk about the situation of the various armies first!"

Fu Su returned to the dragon chair. No matter how good his relationship with Zhao Che was in private, when it comes to government affairs, he must maintain the majesty and work atmosphere of an emperor.

On the desk in front of Fusu, there was a world map. He picked up crayons of different colors on the table, and each color represented each army.

"The armies from all walks of life have already started marching according to the established direction and plan. With the strength of the Great Qin Ruishi, the march was very smooth. Although they encountered resistance from small groups of forces, they were not worth mentioning. They won consecutive victories all the way. "

"Well, I have also received a few battle reports from the front line. It seems that the area north of Daqin is really vast and sparsely populated. It is not good to waste such a vast land. If it is defeated, the territory of my Great Qin will be doubled!"

Fusu casually drew on the map, drawing all the lands that the current army has already carried out and included in the Daqin territory.

These uninhabited territories, unlike the Western Regions, have their own people anyway, so they can be regarded as governable.

As for the north of the Xiongnu grassland, where it is really possible to walk for several days without seeing people, it is not good to put such a vast land like this.

There is an inexplicable gene in the bones of Chinese people. They love the land from the bottom of their hearts. Whenever they see idle land, they will feel uncomfortable. They always think about whether they can plant something?
If you can’t grow rice and wheat, then you can grow potatoes and sweet potatoes. If you can’t even grow this, then you can grow other things, anyway, as long as you don’t let this place sit idle.

As for the tribes of the Western Regions, after the alliance was reached, Fusu and the ministers of the DPRK and China decided to plan a little bit for the Western Regions.

The main reason is to let those people in the Western Regions gather together and use all the available land as much as possible. In this way, on the one hand, it is to facilitate the management of Daqin.

Secondly, it is also to allow the countries in the Western Regions to strengthen exchanges, concentrate their manpower, and work together, both in terms of productivity and production efficiency, will be greatly improved.

Watching Fusu keep drawing circles on the map with a pen, Zhao Che suddenly shook his head and said.

"Brother Huang, the many areas you drew are actually unusable for Daqin now!"

"Unavailable? What do you mean?"

Fu Su frowned, looked at Zhao Che and asked.

"Even if you haven't been to the Western Regions, you have heard about the situation there. The biggest problem in the Western Regions is the overgrown desert. Many places are deserts, and the wind and sand are extremely strong. It is impossible to use them for farming, and it is even impossible to let them grow. people to live in!"

"And the reason why our Great Qin marched so smoothly is also because those places are simply not suitable for human beings to live there, so this situation of sparsely populated land is caused!"

"Secondly, in addition to the desert yellow sand, there is another very important terrain, that is, saline-alkali land, which is also unusable."

……

After listening to Zhao Che's explanation, Fusu seemed to understand, but soon his expression turned a little ugly.

"Since none of these lands can be used, why do we, Daqin, need so many territories?"

Fusu was very disappointed, just like the disappointment of a rabbit after knowing that the soil on the moon cannot be used to grow vegetables. These lands are now like chicken ribs, tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to discard them.

"Brother Huang, don't worry, although these lands cannot be used, it does not mean that they cannot be governed, but the time and cost may be high, but no matter what, I think these geological and geographical problems must be solved. "

"How to manage?"

Fusu asked curiously.

"Both sandy land and saline-alkali land have corresponding treatment methods, and this is what we must do, because this geographical feature will spread very quickly, if no measures are taken, sooner or later even Daqin will be affected! "

Today, Daqin's development speed is already very fast, but the rapid development requires more resources.

More than 2000 years ago, Daqin's protection and governance of the environment were actually quite good. In the Daqin Field Law, there were regulations on governance and protection and penalties for deforestation.

However, the development of Daqin during this period of time has obviously temporarily left the matter of environmental protection behind.

Zhao Che didn't want to see the sky full of smog and sandstorms after thousands of years, so he had to make all preparations in advance for environmental governance.

"Is it so serious? Is this sandstorm still contagious?"

"Brother Huang, it's not that I haven't read Tian Lu. Now that Daqin is short of resources, a lot of trees have been cut down. The disappearance of these trees will have a great impact on Daqin's environment."

Zhao Che shook his head and continued.

"Desert soil and soil are actually similar to a large extent, but their classification standards are different. For us, the biggest reason why deserts cannot be used is because of drought, lack of rain, and lack of water, which leads to soil profiles. It's full of gravel and the soil is extremely poorly developed!"

"The reason why the soil turns into a desert is not only because of drought and less rain, but also because the sand is soft and cannot absorb and retain water at all. Even the best climate is useless."

"The simplest and most effective way to control the desert is to plant trees. With forests, you can resist the invasion of wind and sand, and the roots of plants are in the soil, which can firmly lock the soil and make it become a desert. It will be firmer, so that it can absorb the falling water, keep the soil in a moist state, and it is more conducive to the growth of the number, so this is a virtuous circle!"

……

After hearing this, Fusu nodded half-understood. He didn't quite understand the difference between the soil and desert soil that Zhao Che said, but he understood the most important point.

That is, to prevent desert invasion and keep the soil usable, it is necessary to grow trees!
"Then plant trees, the more the better, plant trees in the Western Regions and Daqin, it is best to plant trees in all the deserts!"

Without saying a word, Fusu made a decision with a wave of his hand.

"How can there be such a simple thing!"

Zhao Che shook his head. Even after more than 2000 years, desert control is a big problem, and it cannot be solved by just issuing a few policies.

To prevent land desertification, this situation can also be delayed by afforestation, but the biggest difficulty is to turn the desert into usable soil again.

First of all, due to the characteristics of the desert, its own climate is very dry and hot, and there is no sufficient moisture at all.

And it is not easy to alleviate the drought in the desert through artificial irrigation or rainfall.
