Can you live forever

Chapter 127 The past of Shangzhou, the four horses of the apocalypse
Not long after returning to Longhu Mountain, Da Fangfeng bid farewell to the old Tianshi.

Naturally, the old heavenly master did not stop him. After going down the mountain, the Wang family arranged for a boat to send Da Fangfeng on a long journey. Needless to say, the danger was dangerous. After all, the Xu family did not want to see Da Fangfeng return to Beishangzhou.

After going through all kinds of difficulties and dangers, two years later, a letter came back from Beishangzhou, saying that Fangfeng and the others had arrived in their hometown.

Under the oppression of the Xiluo people and the Xu family, the Cherokee people had been looking forward to the big wind for a long time. When he went back and took out the "Big Dipper Flag", they naturally responded.

It doesn't matter whether the Beidou flag is real or not, the important thing is that Da Fangfeng holds the Beidou flag.

Traveling across thousands of miles and oceans, it was difficult for the Wang family to provide supplies to Da Fangfeng, and because of sending Da Fangfeng back to Beishangzhou, the Wang family and the Xu family had a feud, and their business was greatly affected.

The Xu family has more than [-] pirates, which can be said to be the most powerful armed force on the ocean.

But the Wang family is not easy to give.

How can the Wang family fight unprepared battles if they can develop into a wealthy businessman holding the zodiac order in 20 years? The Wang family started preparing for the navy a few years ago. They joined forces with the Wu family and borrowed from the Wu family's overseas colonies to start a new business and accumulated a large amount of money. battleship.

The difference between the Wang family and other wealthy businessmen is that they operate in the mainland.

Over the years, the Wang family bought a lot of land, but they did not rely on rent collection to make profits. In this era when rents were generally more than [-]%, the land rent that the Wang family gave to tenants was only [-]% to [-]%.

Only to maintain the farm's balance of payments.

They have a deep level of management in their own farms, provide tenants with a relaxed living environment, and also open village schools to give tenants' children the opportunity to study and take the imperial examination.

There are nearly 60 households belonging to the Wang Family Farm, controlling a population of almost [-].

These tenants are well aware of the difference between the outside world and the Wang family's farm. Only under the wings of the Wang family can they live so peacefully and comfortably.

Therefore, those tenant children who have been educated since childhood are loyal to the royal family from the bottom of their hearts.

Almost all tenant children can go to school for free, but they will be divided according to their grades when they become adults. The talented ones will continue to support the imperial examinations, and the inferior ones will enter various industries of the royal family and gradually become managers. Those without talents will be able to read and write. And those who are willing to join the army will become the reserve personnel of the Royal Guard Army.

They are trained as village braves in various farms.

Those who are qualified will be selected to become the official guards and sent to Poyang Lake to receive more formal training and participate in battles, while those who are not selected will become farmers and provide strength for the development of the farm.

This entire system is the core competitiveness of the Wang family.

Although there are only 6000 guards on the list, the Wang family can pull out tens of thousands of soldiers and horses at any time. As early as the first year of Jiajing, Wang Guizhi's fourth son, Wang Zhi, began to deploy when he was 14 years old.

This was requested by Wang Zhi on his own initiative.

The Wang family's strategy of marching into the sea was handled by Wang Zhi. When it was officially unveiled, it was the battle of sending Da Fangfeng to Beishangzhou. The sudden burst of power caught the Xu family by surprise.

It was only then that they discovered that the Wang family had accumulated such a strong sea power, and they actually intended to compete with the Xu family!

The Wang family has extended their hands to the Xu family's territory, is that okay?
So the two families went to war completely, which caused turmoil in the sea area of ​​Daming, and even the navigation of the whole world was affected. The Wang family not only provoked the Xu family at sea, but also intervened in the salt industry in the interior, which completely disturbed the Wang family. lifeblood.

Now the four Huizhou merchants started a civil war.

The Wang family formed an alliance with the Wu family, and the Xu family formed an alliance with the Wang family. In the territory of Daming, it was difficult to stage a full-scale martial arts. It was more of a commercial competition. When the full-scale fight really started, the Xu family and the Wang family knew how high the quality of the Wang family was. How tough it is.

So much so that in the mall, the two of them were even suppressed.

And the war at sea became the key. Even if the Wang family prepared for five years, the power at sea was still not as far as that of the Xu family, but the Xu family's initial counterattacks were resisted by Wang Zhi.

Although the situation is weak, it has stood its ground anyway.

However, if they want to cross the ocean to support Beishangzhou, they have more than enough energy, and even the original business with the Yindian people in the Superior area has been affected.

However, the early days were difficult.

But the situation in North Shangzhou was not that difficult. In the final analysis, Shangzhou was still the Shangzhou of the Yin Di'an people. When the Great Fangfeng united the Cherokee people, their strength was already very strong.

It took almost five years.

Da Fangfeng has already taken an absolute advantage on the east coast of Beishangzhou, almost driving the Xiluo people into the sea, and he himself became the king of Cherokee and established the Kingdom of Date.

In the 14th year of Jiajing, a letter was sent back.

It is said that they are going to pay tribute to Ming Dynasty, and Yiqiong will lead the team at that time, but two years have passed, and the tribute mission from the Kingdom of Date has not come, and it is not known whether something happened or the route is blocked.

On the way home down the mountain, Zhang Zhixiang was slightly worried about Da Fangfeng and the others.

Although he had already reminded Fangfeng that they brought the vaccination against smallpox to Shangzhou, when the plague broke out on a large scale, not only the vaccine was needed, but also the spread of the plague was needed.

He hadn't heard of smallpox outbreaks in Shangzhou in the past few years, but it was obvious that when the Xiluo people's development in Shangzhou was hindered, they would definitely do this!

The delay in the arrival of the mission from the Kingdom of Date was probably due to smallpox.

And not just smallpox.

The Xiluo people also brought plague, mumps, measles, cholera, yellow fever and so on to Shangzhou.

Since the Black Death in the Middle Ages, the people of Xiluo have become tolerant to many plagues under the death of a large number of people, while the "isolated" Shangzhou has never seen those diseases.

With deliberate spread by the Siro, this would turn into a disaster.

and.

This will only be the beginning. The plague will not only spread in Shangzhou, but will also spread eastward along the land route. In history, in the 29th year of Jiajing, Altan Khan, the leader of the Mongolian Tatar tribe, continued to invade the border. In fact, it was not for aggression, but for help. .

Daming has the technology of planting vaccinia to treat smallpox.

After smallpox spread to Mongolia, Mongolia was tortured by smallpox and wanted Ming's support. However, in history, Jiajing believed that the weakening of Mongolia was a good thing, and did not agree to Altan Khan's call for help.

This is actually correct.

Because Mongolia has suffered huge losses since then, and its strength has dropped sharply, so that in the fifth year of Longqing, the "Alda Conferring Tribute" incident occurred, Altan Khan accepted the canonization of Ming Dynasty, and Mongolia officially became a vassal state of Ming Dynasty.

The Hilos have had their fill of the plague.

In the late Ming Dynasty, a large number of missionaries came to Daming. Under the natural disasters of the Little Ice Age, it is hard to say whether there was any human push...

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: Plague, War, Famine, and Death.

For them, it is indeed worthy of the name of "Apocalypse".

These four knights did help them win the world.
