Chapter 1333, National Pig Raising and Biological Invasion
In addition to building a Yanti Railway to the Siberian region, the second major thing Ningyuan did was to raise pigs.
That's right, it's just pig farming.
In the past, when I was on the Lost Continent, in order to allow the griffin beast army from the Griffin Mountains to go out for battle, Ningyuan carried out a vigorous national pig farming campaign in the Holy Griffin Kingdom.
This time, Ning Yuan deliberately put pig raising on the agenda in order to allow the griffin beast army of the Griffin Mountains to truly get out of the Griffin Mountains.
In addition to the rare number of dragons in the game, the griffin beast can be called the strongest hand-to-hand combat air force.
Even if the Dragon Eagle Knight and the Silver Pegasus Knight encounter a large group of griffon beasts, they must choose to pause their edge, because griffon beasts not only have terrifying attack power, but also have extremely powerful physical bodies, and it is difficult for ordinary attacks to really damage them.
It was originally a very happy thing to have a griffin legion, because owning a griffin legion means having a certain degree of air supremacy.
After the Eagle Empire occupied the Lost Continent, Ning Yuan became the one with the most griffin beast army in the entire game world, which made him feel extremely proud.
But this is a game called the second world of human beings. Many of the contents in the game are very close to reality, so sometimes too many good things in your hands may not be a good thing, and it may be a happy trouble.
For Ning Yuan, the griffin beast in the Lost Continental Griffin Mountains was his greatest happiness and worries, because while the griffin beast has strong attack power, it also has an extremely terrifying appetite.
As a purely carnivorous monster, each adult griffin beast eats at least one sheep every day.
Although griffin beasts have extremely strong tolerance and can not eat for a week, if they really hungry for a week, when they start eating again, not to mention a sheep, even a cow may not be enough for them to eat.
So although the attack power of the Griffin Beast Legion is very terrifying, the forces with the Griffin Beast army seem awesome, but many people cannot truly understand the bitterness behind feeding the Griffin Beast, because many times the hearts of the owner of the Griffin Beast Legion are bleeding.
The reason is that the griffin beasts are so edible, and they eat meat every meal.
Ning Yuan has a deeper understanding of the bitterness behind the support of the griffin beast legion than ordinary people.
There is no way, who has given the largest number of griffin beasts in the Condor Empire?
When the Condor Empire went west to Shanhaiguan and began to join the ranks of China, many Chinese players were very puzzled, that is, why the Condor Empire did not send their most powerful griffin beast army to the battle.
At first, players thought that Ning Yuan was deliberately conserving his strength and wanted to use the griffin beast legion on the hardest bones to crack.
However, as the war continued, the Eagle Empire destroyed one force after another that was entrenched on the land of China, but Ning Yuan still did not send the griffin beast army to the battle, which immediately puzzled many people.
In fact, not only ordinary players have this kind of doubt, but even many players of the Tenglong Army are very unaware of Ning Yuan's failure to send the Griffon Beast Legion to the battle.
Many players think that Ning Yuan is too careful. Griffin beasts are not kittens and dogs that can die when they touch them. There is really no need for him to be so cautious.
So the reason why Ning Yuan refused to send the Griffin Beast Legion to the battle is really as players guessed. Are you worried that the Griffin Beast Legion will experience unnecessary combat losses?
Of course the answer is no.
In fact, Ning Yuan wants the griffin beast army to help him fight the world more than anyone else, but he can't just let the griffin beasts help him fight, instead of giving the griffin beasts a full meal!
You should know that those old men are pure carnivorous people. They can eat several sheep in every meal. How many sheep should Ning Yuan raise to eat them!
Unless Ning Yuan was willing to give them all the cattle and sheep on the entire Mongolian prairie, he would not be able to provide enough food to maintain the daily consumption of the Griffon Beast Legion.
In nature, why do high-level predators have their own territory, and why do many top predators not like to live in groups?
Isn’t it because the amount of food per unit area is limited and not enough for them to eat?
The Griffon Mountains has a vast area, with a tropical marine climate, warm and rainy year round, lush vegetation, and abundant animal and plant resources.
Since the plants there can grow all year round, it is simply paradise for herbivores.
The white-hoofed fragrant pig has strong adaptability to the environment and can give birth to two babies a year, each baby can give birth to more than ten to twenty cubs.
As an omnivorous monster, as long as there is enough food around them, they can reproduce infinitely and quickly fill a large area.
The environment of the Griffon Mountains is very suitable for the white-hoofed fragrant pigs to reproduce there, so with its strong reproductive ability, the white-hoofed fragrant pigs have always firmly occupied the top spot in the large herbivore population in the Griffon Mountains.
Their figures are everywhere in every corner of the Griffon Mountains. If there weren't some natural enemies, they might have reproduced to the point where they would not have any grass in the Griffon Mountains.
In the natural food chain, one of the main functions of top predators is to limit the infinite reproduction of herbivores through hunting, thereby maintaining the ecological balance of the area.
For white-hoofed pigs with thick skin and flesh, it is difficult for ordinary carnivorous animals to limit their reproduction speed.
Because they are not those mentally retarded herbivores who only run around and dare not fight back against the enemy.
Adult white-hoofed fragrant pigs are very wild, and they even dare to take the initiative to attack large monsters such as tigers and leopards that have entered their vision.
It is precisely because the white-hoofed Pig is not the kind of mentally retarded herbivores who only know how to escape when they see carnivores, so the top large predators, such as the Griffon Mountains, were born in the Griffon Mountains.
The huge size of the griffin beasts allows them to ignore the counterattack of the White-Hoven Scented Pig.
Their outstanding flying ability can lock the position of the White-Hoven Fragrant Pig from afar, thus launching a deadly dive attack on the White-Hoven Fragrant Pig.
Their excellent appetite perfectly suppresses the terrifying reproductive ability of the White-Hoven Scented Pig.
Because not every place in the Griffon Mountains is full of dense forests, once the population of white-hoofed fragrant pigs is too large, they must risk leaving the safe forest to go out for food.
At this time, some white-hoofed fragrant pigs will become the predation targets of griffins and eventually become food in the griffins' belly.
As the top predators in the Griffon Mountains, smart griffon beasts also understand what scientific predation is.
When going out for hunting, they will avoid hunting underage individuals and pregnant female animals as much as possible.
In this way, the number of griffin beasts in the Griffin Mountains and the number of white-hoofed fragrant pigs remained in a relatively balanced state.
It is also because of the inexhaustible white-hoofed fragrant pigs in the Griffon Mountains, so the griffon beasts can reproduce and survive there freely.
On the earth, most of China's geographical locations are in the North temperate zone. If you want to raise griffin beasts here, in addition to vigorously developing animal husbandry, you must also organize large-scale breeding.
To develop animal husbandry, you need to have large areas of pastures. To develop aquaculture, in addition to a certain amount of land, you must also have sufficient feed sources.
The breeding industry can complement ordinary agriculture, but animal husbandry has great conflicts with ordinary agriculture, because both require a large amount of high-quality land.
Back then, in order to raise griffin beasts, some of the large guilds in the Northern Expedition Alliance not only started large-scale poultry and livestock breeding, but also reluctantly built some high-quality land into pastures and even planted grass on a large scale in some fields.
Even so, they have to purchase a large amount of meat from other places every year. As long as the griffin beast can eat, no matter whether it is beef, mutton or fish, as long as the other party is willing to sell it, they will refuse everyone.
However, even though they have achieved this level, the number of griffin beasts has not been able to increase rapidly.
The fundamental reason is that there is not enough food.
It’s not that they didn’t work hard enough, but that the griffin beasts were so edible.
The number of griffins in their territory has reached saturation. If they continue to increase, they will not be able to provide enough food for griffins.
So in the end the number of griffin beasts in their hands was limited to a critical point.
When Ningyuan's Condor Empire defeated them and occupied their land, all the original production on the land was seriously damaged.
Even the logistics supply of the Condor Empire soldiers in the front line has become a big problem, let alone providing enough meat to the griffin beast.
So even though Ning Yuan had always wanted the Griffon Beast Legion to participate in the war in the Huaxia District, he finally chose to give up in the face of cruel reality.
Because as a modern human who has received higher education, Ning Yuan could not allow the griffin beast to devour the corpses of the enemy on the battlefield.
Except for the ancient war trees that can purify corpses, any demon beast legion of the Condor Empire can not use human corpses as food. This is Ningyuan's bottom line.
Ning Yuan would rather never use the Griffin Beast Legion than break through this bottom line.
So in the end, the powerful griffin beast army did not appear on the battlefield where the Condor Empire conquered China.
Although Ningyuan still has a bottom line in being a human being, the feeling of having treasures but not being able to use them is not very beautiful.
So in order to make the super combat power of the Griffon Beast Legion successfully debut in the subsequent foreign war, Ning Yuan immediately put the national breeding of white-hoofed fragrant pigs on the agenda after unifying the entire China.
In Ningyuan's view, such as the White Hoofed Pig, who reproduces quickly, grows quickly, is not picky about food, has delicious meat, high meat production, and can also produce magical beasts with earth-based magic crystals. If it cannot be used as a key breeding target, it will definitely be a waste of resources.
So after carefully analyzing the geographical and climatic environment of various parts of China, he planned several important white-hoofed fragrant pig breeding areas.
The first important breeding area is the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.
Although the area of arable land on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau is extremely limited, the climate there is very suitable for plant production, especially in Yunnan, where plants can grow all year round.
For the white-hoofed pigs who are not picky about food, Yunnan, which has a subtropical plateau monsoon climate, is very suitable for the reproduction of their populations.
As the southwestern border area of China, Yunnan borders large areas with Myanmar, Laos and other countries. For Ningyuan, which has always wanted to get involved in the Indochina Peninsula, its strategic position is very important.
Therefore, in order to attack countries on the Indochina Peninsula in the future, such as Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Ningyuan planned to make Yunnan a military base where the griffin beast army can be stationed for a long time.
To this end, he not only called on the lower orcs in Yunnan to raise white-hoofed fragrant pigs, but also placed a large number of adult white-hoofed fragrant pigs in the wild and listed the wild white-hoofed fragrant pigs on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau as a third-level protected animal of the Condor Empire.
Except for the foraging griffin beasts that can freely hunt white-hoofed fragrant pigs in the wild, under non-special circumstances, no one in the Condor Heroes Empire can take the initiative to hunt wild white-hoofed fragrant pigs.
If a white-hoofed fragrant pig destroys the crops, the people whose crops are damaged can report the losses immediately, and then the Condor Empire will come forward to provide sufficient compensation.
Ning Yuan had only one purpose for this, that is, to allow the white-hoofed fragrant pig to rapidly grow its population in the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau area, and then expand to the Indochina Peninsula first before the army of the Condor Empire.
I believe that with the environmental adaptability of the white-hoofed pigs, as long as they are given enough time, their footprints will soon be spread throughout the Indochina Peninsula.
By then, the Griffon Legion of the Condor Empire would no longer have to leave the Griffon Mountains because of food problems.
In addition to the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, Ningyuan also designated all mountainous areas south of the Yangtze River as important breeding areas for white-hoofed fragrant pigs.
Of course, there, the white-hoofed fragrant pig is no longer a third-level protected animal. People can hunt and kill it in a planned manner based on the local white-hoofed fragrant pig population.
After deciding to let the white-hoofed fragrant pig population replace the local wild boar population, Ning Yuan also asked all the people in the Condor Empire who wanted to raise pigs to raise white-hoofed fragrant pigs.
He wanted to allow the adaptable white-hoofed fragrant pigs to spread all over every corner of the Condor Heroes Empire, so that the people of the Condor Heroes Empire could have enough pork to eat, and that several other demon beast legions of the Condor Heroes Empire could also fight frequently.
As a pig monster, the wild population of white-hoofed fragrant pigs actually belongs to a biological invasion into China.
Because their adaptability and combat effectiveness are stronger than ordinary pigs, their growth rate is faster than that of local wild boars in China.
Therefore, when Ningyuan put a large number of wild populations of white-hoofed pigs into the entire Huaxia area, it will not take long before they can replace other wild boars and become the overlord of the pig tribe on the land of Huaxia.
And this is exactly the scene Ning Yuan wants to see most, because he needs a lot of pork.
In addition to letting the white-hoofed fragrant pig invade China, Ning Yuan also did several other things about biological invasion.
The first thing was that Ningyuan sent people to transport several large ships of Asian carp to North America, and then spent a lot of money to ask people to put the Asian carp into some large local rivers.
The second thing was that Ning Yuan asked someone to capture 50,000 hares, and then transported them all to Australia for release.
The third thing was that Ningyuan had someone secretly transported a large number of wild hairy crabs to Europe and successfully placed them into some rivers and lakes in Europe.
These three animals are delicious on people's dining tables in China, but in North America, Australia and Europe, they are lawless beasts because the locals don't like to eat them at all.
When humans, the biggest natural enemy, remain indifferent to them, they will really let themselves go if they have no natural enemies in the local area.
As long as the situation goes well and in a few years, biological invasions that occur in the real world are likely to be reproduced in the game world.
Foreign players don't eat them, but they are delicious on the table for Chinese players.
