The sea of ​​fire illuminated the night sky, dragging more than ten complete Taotie beast soldiers with horses, and the 100,000 cavalry troops returned to the Great Wall. When the Khitans discovered the changes here and sent scouts to reconnaissance, they only saw the burning corpses on the ground. The Taotie who had been burned to black charcoal made the Khitan scouts cheer. From then on, the Taotie disaster officially became history.

A month later, Zuo Xiaoyou was promoted to General of Cavalry, and Lin Mei was promoted to General of Palace Commander of Palace. At the same time, the wedding invitations of General of Cavalry and General of Palace Commander of Archery were spread throughout the army. The soldiers who had just finished the Battle of Taotie were happy. A happy event diluted the fear and fatigue that had just ended the war, and everything was developing in a good direction.

After the war, the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom fell into a rare period of peaceful coexistence. Originally, the Black Powder of the Song Dynasty had absolute strength to defeat the Liao Kingdom and occupy the territory of the Liao Kingdom, but the cowardly Emperor did not like to fight at all. Those civil officials who only knew how to flatter and flatter did not want too many military generals to make contributions and put them on their heads. The Song Dynasty originally valued literature and suppressed martial arts. The military rank of the General Zuo Xiaoyou, the cavalry, was probably the achievement of this life. Without the threat of Taotie in the future, I was afraid that the Shadowless Imperial Guard would gradually wither.

But Zuo Xiaoyou didn't care. The most important thing he did right now was to study Taotie. The signal transmission chip of Taotie Beast King had already been obtained, and more than ten Taotie were also placed in the underground laboratory in the Great Wall. These more than ten Taotie were not dead, but were just dormant, so as long as they were cleaned every day and had a little liquid food, they could ensure their signs of life.

It’s easy to say that the most difficult thing is chip research. After all, this is not modern, and electronic technology has not developed at all, so to crack the chip password, you can only start from scratch.

After half a year of research, Zuo Xiaoyou carried out learning movements in the Shadowless Imperial Guard in his personal name. What he learned was not something that was useless to the country like poetry, songs, and essays, but mathematics, physics, literature and history.

Although the profession of military personnel is glorious, cultural learning is essential if you want your descendants to live a good life. The textbooks compiled by Zuo Xiaoyou, Wang Junshi and others are all good things with practical information, so even if the Imperial Guard retires in the future, as long as he learns these things, he can still gain a foothold in society.

In addition, Zuo Xiaoyou decided to provide free education for the next generation in the Shadowless Imperial Guard, and would provide these children with five years of compulsory education. After the five-year compulsory obligation, they either graduate and enter society, or can continue to go to school, but it is no longer free after going to school, because everything they can learn is extremely profound. As long as they complete their studies, even if they cannot become a superior person in this life, they can at least easily support their family.

Zuo Xiaoyou's policy was simply what the soldiers thought, so all the soldiers of the Shadowless Imperial Guard were grateful to Zuo Xiaoyou, and Zuo Xiaoyou's reputation in the army was also unparalleled. At least among the Shadowless Imperial Guard, people only knew Zuo Xiaoyou but did not know the emperor.

Fortunately, Zuo Xiaoyou has been living on the frontier and has not had much interest entanglement with the people in the court, so there is no need to cause trouble for those civil officials in the court who only knows how to flatter him. With Zuo Xiaoyou's prestige in the army, who dares to touch him will be enemies of the entire Shadowless Imperial Guard, or even the entire Song Dynasty military community. Corrupt officials can calculate the pros and cons of this.

In this way, Zuo Xiaoyou began to continuously cultivate high-quality talents, and then these talents were absorbed into the military scientific research units, and others could also arrange corresponding work to ensure that these people not only had a high social status, but also had high social welfare. The people of the Song Dynasty paid the most attention to honor, which can be seen from the fact that 100,000 soldiers and civilians jumped into the sea to sacrifice their country after the Yashan Sea Battle. Therefore, social status and social welfare are valued by every Song people, which can completely make them shine their ancestors and live a good life.

But this process took ten years to complete. Five years of compulsory education, plus three years of paid education, the top ones still need to be trained for two years, so that they can enter military scientific research institutions.

During this process, Lin Mei had given birth to five children for Zuo Xiaoyou, three boys and two girls. These five children inherited the beauty and intelligence of their parents. Each of them was the pride of heaven from birth. In order to cultivate these five children well, Zuo Xiaoyou specially invited Mr. Wang to take Mr. Wang as his teacher.

Of course, formal compulsory education should be studied like ordinary children. Only by completing five years of compulsory education and three years of paid education can they be qualified to become a disciple of Wang Junzhi. Zuo Xiaoyou will not favor his children in this regard. In addition, he and Lin Mei are both from the army and do not respect fraud, so they are very strict in cultivating children.

These five children, from the beginning of being able to walk and speak, began to work hard and receive the most basic military training. After the age of five, they will enter the school and conduct compulsory education. Except for the youngest children, they cannot walk, the other four children have shown superior talents and martial arts, which makes everyone sigh: "I am worthy of being the children of the general and the palace coach."

However, Lin Mei gave birth to five children, which inevitably damaged her lifespan, so after Zuo Xiaoyou was born, she asked the top doctor to perform sterilization surgery on her. From then on, she would not have to work so hard.

After more than ten years of hard work, Zuo Xiaoyou finally had the first batch of useful scientific research talents, so his research on Taotie also entered the fast lane. In just twenty years, there were certain results.

The Great Wall underground scientific experimental unit, thousands of scientific research talents are conducting their own research in full swing. In the different laboratories of these people, there are different equipment. Test tubes and other things are the most inconspicuous, and the highlights are those large electronic devices.

Human wisdom is indeed infinite. Zuo Xiaoyou himself did not expect that it took only more than twenty years to produce electronic devices from scratch in the technology of the Song Dynasty. With these electronic devices, the research on chips was considered clues.

Now, the Beast Soldier's chip has entered the stage of deciphering, but there is no specific timetable to completely decipher. As for the most confidential Beast Soldier, Zuo Xiaoyou regarded it as the top secret. No one except him and Wang Junshi, knows where the Beast Soldier is? As for Lin Mei and the two female soldiers back then, they would not talk nonsense. Because, shortly after Lin Mei got married, he pulled the two female soldiers into Zuo Mansion and became Zuo Xiaoyou's concubines.

This era was the heyday of the feudal dynasty, and the demands on women were very high. With Zuo Xiaoyou's status, it would be abnormal if he only married one woman. At that time, Lin Mei was just pregnant with her first child and was afraid that Zuo Xiaoyou would go out to drink flower wine, so she took the initiative to pull the two He Jun's own deputy over, so that they could accompany Zuo Xiaoyou when it was inconvenient for him, so that Zuo Xiaoyou had no intention of looking for flowers and asking about the willows outside.

Although the two female soldiers were very shy, they agreed very happily. After all, it is very rare for Zuo Xiaoyou, a man with status, both civil and military, and good looks. Even if they are concubines, they are much better than being wives for other soldiers.

Zuo Xiaoyou was very surprised at that time, but under this social atmosphere, he still accepted two female soldiers. After all, they took off their military uniforms and dressed up, and they were still pretty. What's more, both women were the deputys who followed Lin Mei since childhood and had a deep relationship. In order for Lin Mei to be lonely in the future, Zuo Xiaoyou would agree.

These two women are also very successful. They gave birth to a son and a daughter for Zuo Xiaoyou, and then withdrew from the army and became the young grandmother of the General's Mansion. Now they live a very comfortable life.

In addition to the progress of electronic technology, a large number of talents cultivated by Zuo Xiaoyou over the years began to flow into society, so the first industrial revolution appeared. Although this caused huge environmental pollution, it was the price that any industrial revolution had to pay. Don’t think that only the Republic had pollution. The eagle fruit and the foot-basin chicken had severe industrial pollution back then, but the governance began in the later stage, which made the environment better.

Zuo Xiaoyou is not afraid of environmental pollution, but is afraid of no planning. Fortunately, the school told these students from the beginning that the development of industry will cause serious pollution, so industrial technology with severe pollution must be strictly controlled and planned, and various anti-pollution control measures must also keep up. In this way, the pollution in the Song Dynasty is not as serious as imagined and is completely acceptable.

But pollution is ultimately pollution, and pollution will cause diseases. Therefore, under the organization of Zuo Xiaoyou, medical schools have emerged in recent years, specializing in researching and preventing new diseases. Due to the influence of a scientific view, medical technology called Western medicine has begun to emerge. With these things, traditional Chinese medicine, which is of varying quality, gradually withdrew from the stage of history.

Of course, many good traditional Chinese medicine technologies are still protected by the official, such as acupuncture, pulse control, decoction, etc. These good things must not be lost. Compared with some of the remarks that later generations criticized traditional Chinese medicine, Zuo Xiaoyou is confident that he will do better than later generations, and medical development has also entered a benign track.

With the progress of the industrial revolution, railways and trains appeared and cars appeared, but the most common ones were bicycles. With the emergence of rubber technology, tires also came into being, so bicycles, a tool that can be ridden even in extremely harsh terrain, became the choice of many people.

However, with the emergence of the concept of "If you want to be rich, build roads first" and the emergence of cement, there had been a huge wave of opening up and building roads in the Song Dynasty. Various wide and flat highways continued to appear, and railways connecting various places were also built one by one, which greatly enhanced the advantage of centralization. In the past, it took at least several months for the central government to send troops to suppress the rebellion in remote areas, but with railway transportation, 100,000 soldiers would definitely arrive within three days. Those who want to rebel must consider it clearly.

The most gratifying thing is that the shipbuilding industry has entered the steel era, and huge steel ships appeared. Then Zuo Xiaoyou asked for his order to lead a navy of 10,000 to the American continent. Nothing else, it is just for the legendary high-yield crop.

The peak of the population in ancient China was only more than 60 million, and no matter how much it was, it would be gone. The reason is very simple, there was not enough food. In this case, until the emergence of high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, the population of China evolved from more than 60 million to 400 million in just two hundred years, and then with the saying "many people are high and powerful", the population explosively exceeded 800 million in decades. Although population governance began later, the population still exceeded 1.4 billion without any suspense.

This is the role of high-yield crops. Without sufficient food, even if people want to give birth, they will not be able to feed their children. The population of Song Dynasty is only 40 million, thanks to the south that there are rice that is ripe or ripe a year. Without these, Song Dynasty would not be able to feed so many people.

When Zuo Xiaoyou was granted permission and led 10,000 soldiers to cross the Pacific Ocean on a giant steel ship and enter the American continent, a brand new world made these soldiers very happy. Then, after more than half a year, Zuo Xiaoyou led his army to sweep away some local indigenous people, occupied a military base, and then sent troops to find a large number of high-yield crops.

Needless to mention sweet potatoes, potatoes, what makes Zuo Xiaoyou happy the most is the discovery of peppers and tomatoes.

Zuo Xiaoyou hasn't tasted these tomatoes and Sichuan hotpot for decades. When he found these things, Zuo Xiaoyou immediately cooked, made a spicy hotpot chicken, fried a few more dishes, and ate them happily for an afternoon.

Tears fill my eyes! Life is really satisfying.

With these high-yield crops, Zuo Xiaoyou immediately brought these things back to the Song Dynasty. However, the military base in the Americas did not evacuate. Zuo Xiaoyou planned to treat this place as his future territory. If force majeure appears in the future, he would take people across the ocean and come to the American continent. Anyway, there is still no developed area here, and it will not be occupied.

When Zuo Xiaoyou returned to the Song Dynasty with high-yield crops, the whole country was shocked. It was crazy that crops that were ten times higher than those of the Song Dynasty crops. Zuo Xiaoyou was awarded another reward with this contribution. However, it was not the officials who were awarded, but the King of America.

This emperor was very interesting and directly rewarded Zuo Xiaoyou with a territory as big as America. There was nothing we could do about this. Although America was very large, it was too primitive. The emperor could not let go of the magnificent Song Dynasty and run to the primitive tribes of the Americas to be the patriarch. Moreover, the American continent and the Song Dynasty were separated by a vast ocean, and there were too many dangers at the sea. Zuo Xiaoyou went there with more than 10,000 people, but when he came back, there were only more than 3,000 people, and he lost two smaller sea boats. This damage rate made the emperor shudder, so the reward was stress-free.

Zuo Xiaoyou didn't expect the emperor to be so good. After thanking the emperor, a ten-year wave of immigration began.

Zuo Xiaoyou was already sixty years old at this time. Although he still looked strong in his forties, Zuo Xiaoyou knew that he would not have much time left, so after obtaining the fief of the American continent, he began to prepare for immigration.

Zuo Xiaoyou formulated an American policy. As long as you immigrate to the Americas, you can not only obtain large areas of land, but also obtain very good educational resources. This is still very attractive to ordinary people. So over ten years, more than 3 million Song people immigrated to the Americas, allowing Zuo Xiaoyou to gain considerable people under his rule.
