Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 534
The Apache tribe is indeed the most tragic Indian tribe in North America.

The seven major tribal alliances, with more than one million people, have resisted colonists and invaders for centuries, and finally the entire tribe has only a few tens of thousands of people left!

Such a tenacious tribe, let them give up most of their existing territories and retreat to gather near New Liaoyang City, will they retreat?
If the colonists and invaders told them to retreat, they would naturally rather die than retreat.

However, Taichang ordered something different.

Because he is the emperor of Ming Dynasty, he is the chief of all people, and his reputation has spread throughout the entire North American continent.

It can be said that he is the leader of all Indian tribes, and he is the savior of all Indian tribes. No Indian tribe has dared to disobey the orders he issued.

The Apache tribe is very tenacious, but that doesn't mean they don't know how to advance or retreat.

If they don't know how to advance or retreat and insist on staying in their own territory to fight the colonists and invaders desperately, it will be impossible to resist for more than three hundred years, and they may be finished in more than 30 years.

They just know how to advance and retreat to resist for so long.

In history, they have no way to be so tragic.

You must know that the colonists and invaders they faced for more than 300 years were the strongest forces in the world at that time. Their population was not as large as others, and their weapons were even more incomparable.

What can they do, they can only use their bodies to stop the colonists and invaders, they can only use their lives to fill them.

It was different now. The chiefs of all promised not only to distribute weapons and equipment to the warriors of all their tribes, but also promised to provide them with support and provide them with food until the invaders were driven away.

In this case, if they don't know how to advance or retreat, then there is something wrong with their brains.

If they were so reckless, the British, French, and Americans would not have used them in history, and the Spaniards at the beginning would probably have wiped them out.

They are quite brave, but also quite smart. All the tribes who received the order almost gathered in the direction of Xin Liaoyang City without hesitation, and they didn't need Taichang to send people to pick them up.

Taichang actually didn't mean to let these tribes migrate here by themselves, he just asked these tribes to prepare, and when he arranged everything in Xinliaoyang City, he would naturally send a horse-drawn carriage or warship to pick them up.

At this moment, the new Liaoyang City has only repaired a circle of city walls, and the city is almost blank, with nothing.

He brought all the tribes of the Apache tribe together, and he always had to consider the issue of eating and sleeping.

At this moment, the problem of food is the best solution, because he has paid out money to buy 1000 million shi of grain from the Spaniards, but he only raised less than 400 million shi in total, and there are still 600 million shi. It's more than ten thousand stones, he just needs to send a boat to pull it over.

An armed merchant ship can pull at least [-] to [-] shi of grain, and a hundred armed merchant ships can be sent there, and they can be pulled over in one trip.

Of course, it takes time for people to prepare food, and it is impossible to prepare more than 600 million shi of food in one go.

Therefore, he does not need to send a hundred armed merchant ships there at a time, and sending ten ships at a time to pull them is enough for others to work.

As for eating and sleeping, New Liaoyang City is big enough to accommodate a million people without any problems. The problem is that there are no houses built inside, just a large open space.

How to do it?

Taichang led a group of civil servants and generals standing on the gate tower next to the port, looking at the empty wasteland below, his brows were slightly frowned.

Is it possible to build houses for nearly a million people in two or three months?

If he could transfer over a million soldiers from the Shenji Battalion and Shenwu Battalion, then it would be possible. The problem is that it is difficult for him to transfer [-] soldiers from the Shenji Battalion and Shenwu Battalion.

He frowned and pondered for a while, then sighed slightly: "What should we do after the people from the Apache tribe gather? We can't just let them build a grass shed to keep out the wind and rain just like the disaster victims, right?"

It is close to the sea, and besides the main trunk of the Xinliao River, the amount of water is not generally sufficient. When it rains, it is often torrential rain, and it is often accompanied by strong sea breeze. It is estimated that a gust of wind will blow over and nothing will be lost.

Peng Bin thought about it carefully, and then said cautiously: "Your Majesty, I have thought of a way. Tell me, how about we build a shed like a foundry first?"

A shed like a foundry?

That is a roof, surrounded by a windshield wall less than knee height.

It is naturally simple to build such a shed, because basically no walls are needed, and the materials needed are not many, just need to burn more tiles.

Taichang thought about it carefully, and some pictures of later generations building houses suddenly appeared in his mind.

That's right, you can erect the concrete pillars first, then put up the beams and cover the tiles, isn't that a shed?

As for the surrounding walls, they can be built slowly. Anyway, the weather is getting hotter and not colder. As long as there is a shed to shelter from wind and rain, there will be no problems in the next six months.

After the people of the Apache tribe moved here, they could teach them to burn bricks and build walls. After half a year, the surrounding walls would probably be almost finished.

At that time, the people of various tribes will move away, and these sheds with walls can be directly used as workshops. As long as enough machine tools are brought in, New Liaoyang City will instantly become a super large factory.

Just do it!

Thinking of this, Taichang said decisively: "Very well, let's build the shed first, and then let them slowly build up the surrounding walls by themselves."

What kind of method is it to set up a work shed and then build a wall?
The foundry shed is just a shed, and the bricks around it are just to prevent the wind from blowing fine sand everywhere. It cannot be built upwards, because there is no foundation, and even if it is built, it cannot be connected with the shed.

Hearing this, Peng Bin couldn't help reminding: "Your Majesty, the brick walls around the shed cannot be built upwards!"

Of course Taichang knew this.

If it is a foundry shed, the surrounding walls cannot be built upwards.

He explained in detail: "We dug the foundation first, then cast the columns with cement and steel bars, and then built beams on the columns, so that the walls can be built later."

It turned out to be the case.

Peng Bin thought for a while, and then reminded: "Your Majesty, digging the foundation and casting the pillars also requires a lot of people, if there are not more than a hundred thousand people, it may be difficult to build enough work sheds in two or three months. "

What should I do about this problem?

Where did he go to gather more than [-] horses?

Taichang thought for a while, and then said decisively: "The nine cities of the Sioux clan should have almost been built, at least it should be no problem to send ordinary people over here, we can send five thousand soldiers from each of the nine cities of the Sioux clan Come here with five thousand young men, wouldn't there be a hundred thousand people?"

At this moment, there were more than 3 people working on the walls and docks of New Liaoyang City. If 9 people were added, it would be more than [-] people.

Hearing this, Peng Bin couldn't help but cupped his hands and said, "The emperor is wise."
