While the leaders of the Jurchen tribes in the East China Sea were discussing, Yang Fan and his wives set off from Vladivostok Port. We went to Shuangcheng by dog sled.
Yang Fan has already released the news that he will form an alliance with the East China Sea Jurchens in Shuangchengzi.
Shuangchengzi is the central city in the Suifen River Basin. It belongs to the Russian Federation today and its name is Ussuriysk. Shuangchengzi is located in the plain area between the Xihot Mountains, Changbai Mountains and Xingkai Lake. It borders Dongning, China, to the west and 100 kilometers from Vladivostok to the south. ww
Shuangchengzi is located at the confluence of Suifen River, Lakovga River and Suptiga River. It is a plain close to the harbor in the coastal area of the Far East. It is an important commodity distribution center in the Far East.
The location here is very good and it was chosen by Yang Fan as the center of rule. There is a natural harbor in the front and a great plain in the back. It is rich in mineral resources and natural resources. It is a natural Greater Bay Area suitable for industry.
At present, 20,000 immigrants have been recruited here, and the Han population is more than 110,000. Recently, more than 13,000 people from Tsushima Island have immigrated here. The population is now close to 130,000.
Among these people, the Port of Vladivostok is a shipbuilding base and port. So five thousand households were resettled.
Shuangchengzi is the central city and the residence of the Governor's Palace. In the future, light industry will be developed. Therefore, five thousand households were resettled.
The remaining 10,000 households were scattered to ten surrounding towns.
In this wild land, there is always danger. The danger comes not only from savage attacks. Wild animals, severe cold and heat, poisonous insects, snakes and ants can also kill people.
It can get as hot as 37 to 39 degrees in summer here. In winter, it is as cold as minus 37 degrees to 39 degrees.
Basically, the hotter the summer, the colder the winter. However, summer in the Northeast is hot for more than half a month. And the wind is cool under the shade of the trees. As long as you're not exposed to the sun, it's quite comfortable.
Yang Fan didn't dare to disperse the people. Therefore, a town with 1,000 households maintains a scale of 5,000 to 6,000 people.
In each town, logs with a diameter of more than one meter are used, which are blackened with fire to prevent rot, and then buried two meters deep in the ground, with the upper parts exposed eight meters high. The distance between the two wooden walls is four meters. The middle was filled with earth and tamped to form a city wall.
In the future, if the conditions are met, we will prepare to wrap bricks again. Logs are used for faster construction.
The houses in the city are all assembled wooden houses. There is too much wood here, otherwise it would be a forest and snowfield. Drinking water depends on digging wells. The fuel can be wood or coal. Open pit coal mines were found here.
The fields cultivated by these people are all outside the city. After finishing their work, they have to go back to live in the city. Never dare to spend the night outside.
On every hilltop here, there is a big cat like the Northeast Golden Gradient Layer. If the big cat pounces on you, you can only think that you deserve to be unlucky.
When these immigrants came here, they saw what big insects were. They were horrified to find out. This is definitely not what Wu Song was fighting for.
The Jin Jian layer here is more than 4 meters long and extremely powerful. The male weighs more than 600 kilograms. A lynx can easily be killed with one slap. Females can weigh more than 350 kilograms.
The Siberian tiger's palm strike force is about 1000kg, and its bite force is about 500kg. The palm strike force of an ordinary person is about 125kg, so the palm strike force of a tiger is 7 to 8 times that of an ordinary person, so the strength of an average person is much lower than that of a tiger. It is impossible for Wu Song to defeat a tiger.
In the past two years, farmers plowing in the spring have encountered many incidents of skinny, hungry tigers biting their cattle just after the winter. When something like this happens, usually the squad leader will quickly tell everyone to run away.
All farm cattle have insurance, and Xinghe Insurance will pay for it. Human lives still matter.
But there are still some people who are reluctant to part with cows. In this era, a cow is the majority of a family's property and their lifeblood. Their habitual thinking is deeply ingrained.
They raised their forks and spears to fight, and ended up falling into the tiger's mouth with the ox. Later, Li Huaishu had no choice but to fire door guns at them urgently. There were not enough muskets, so a ship was transferred from Beitangkou.
With firearms, it has a deterrent effect on wolves, brown bears, and tigers. The casualties were small.
The most hateful thing is the wild boar, which always harms crops. A wild boar can destroy several acres of land in one night. The angry farmers cried.
When this thing was full, he went to rub it against the pine tree. The pine oil all over his body formed a thick armor over time. Even muskets can't penetrate it.
After long-term battles of wits and courage with wild boars, farmers learned how to dig traps, poison, and cast fishing nets.
Li Huaishu once saw with his own eyes an angry wild boar fighting a black bear.
This experience opened his eyes.
The black bear chased by the wild boar ran for its life. Later, the bear had no choice but to climb the tree. The wild boar rushed into the tree in anger, trying to knock it down. But this tree is more than one meter thick, how could it be knocked down?
Only after seeing the wild boar walking away angrily did the black bear dare to come down. The black bear standing 2.56 meters tall has not had time to feel proud. The wild boar suddenly rushed over from behind a big tree.
The long fangs pierced directly into the belly of the black bear. He pushed the black bear against the trunk of the tree, and then the black bear roared in pain, and its intestines came out.
The angry black bear slapped the wild boar on the face. The whole face of the wild boar was beaten off. His brain bones were shattered. He died suddenly on the spot.
But the black bear was also distraught and hung its head without moving.
In the end, both the bear and the pig died in this posture.
Li Huaishu was frightened to see him. Are all the wild beasts in the Northeast so ferocious?
He can be considered a veteran warrior who has experienced many battles, even though he had the unexpected joy of picking up a wild boar and a black bear. But my legs were still shaking with fear.
After this time, he had a personal experience of the dangerous environment here.
Another time, he led a team to camp in the wild. When he woke up in the morning, he felt that his crotch was slippery, cool and greasy.
He reached out and grabbed it, got closer and took a closer look. I almost jumped out of fright.
As a result, a venomous snake with a triangular head and a length of more than one meter was caught.
Fortunately, I caught the snake at seven inches and controlled the snake's head without being bitten. But the Snake Nobuko licked on his face still made him so sick that he almost wanted to vomit, and he was so frightened that his vision went black.
He jumped up and chopped off the snake's head with a dagger.
The snake's head was broken and fell to the ground, but it was still twisting and struggling on the ground. A yellow dog refused to die to watch the fun, but was bitten by the severed head of the snake. It immediately twitched all over, foamed at the mouth, and was poisoned to death on the spot.
After this incident, he ordered that every time the troops went out in the future, they would tie their trouser legs with leggings and wear long leather boots when sleeping. The sleeping bag must be tied around the neck.
Otherwise, snakes like warm places and are especially willing to get into crotch or quilt.
Yang Fan took two battalions of Vladivostok local troops and a servant battalion to Shuangchengzi. The two hundred miles were covered with snow. Because dog sleds often transport supplies in winter, a snow road was created.
Yang Fan and his wife were sitting in the sleigh carriage. Pulled by fifty huskies. Others used sledges to bring supplies. Move forward with the carriage sandwiched between the front and rear. Three battalions of soldiers advanced on skis.
The servants are all trained in skiing. They use skis.
Later extreme skiing records were about 17 hours and 300 kilometers of skiing. But that's on regular snow trails. There’s no way you can do this in fluffy wilderness snow.
Some places look flat, but in fact there are big pits under the snow. It is very dangerous to fall in. So don't go too fast.
The soldiers can ski at a speed of one hundred miles a day, which is about fifty kilometers. Yang Fan planned to stay in the snow for one night and move on the next day. Arrive at Shuangchengzi in two days.
In fact, it was possible to get there by marching urgently, but Yang Fan was worried that the troops would be exhausted. Causing stragglers and frostbite. If you fall behind here, you risk freezing to death at night.
And you must be careful when meeting these savages. Don't underestimate the enemy.
These Tungus people have different personalities from the Han people.
Han people are cold-faced and warm-hearted. Not easy to make friends with. But once they recognize you as a friend, they are very reliable and trustworthy. The Tungus people are the opposite. They are warm-hearted and cold-hearted. He also greets travelers and strangers warmly and is very hospitable.
However, if there is a conflict of interest, they will suddenly pull out a knife and stab you.
Yang Fan took the army there to prevent them from becoming irrational and acting irrationally after seeing a large amount of supplies.
