Castle of Black Iron

Eastern Continent, Taixia, Yingzhou...

As the most powerful and awe-inspiring country of this era, it is also the core area of ​​human civilization in this era. The Eastern Continent, which has a population of hundreds of millions of Chinese people, is not only the homeland of every Chinese person. , It is the pinnacle of human civilization and power in this era. When every historian of human races talked about the most important reason why human beings can survive after the cataclysm, the Eastern Continent-Taixia-Chinese ——These three trinity vocabulary must always be placed in the most important position.

If there were no Chinese and no Taixia, mankind would have already perished in the first two holy wars. This is a consensus recognized by almost every historian, and anyone who has a clear understanding of this era will lament that there is such a thing. Exclaimed-the age of black iron belongs to the Chinese and Taixia.

In this era, the survival of the Chinese and Taixia's strength have become the greatest hope for the survival of the entire human race.

If you don’t look back at the histories and legends that occurred in the more distant ages, the human race at this moment has a written history, which is almost 6000 years. If the 6,000-year history is transformed into a coordinate by the catastrophe, the history of humanity before the catastrophe will occupy It took about 5,000 years, and the human history after the cataclysm was less than 900 years old. In this 6,000-year history of this human race, a country as powerful and prosperous as Taixia today has never appeared. , And even in almost all human history textbooks, it is difficult to find a country or alliance that can be compared with Taixia. Compared with today's Taixia, all the so-called glorious and powerful countries and alliances that existed in the history books were instantly eclipsed like fireflies and Haoyue.

Taixia’s strength and prosperity have reached a level that is difficult for many people to understand. Those people can’t understand and can only envy them, and then desperately find ways to get closer—this kind of closeness, when the holy war comes, appears even more. Anxious—Yingzhou, one of Taixia’s seventy-two states, because of its proximity to the sea, as a gateway to Taixia, after the outbreak of the Holy War, a large number of overseas immigrants poured into Yingzhou, the entire Yingzhou, especially Several cities near the sea seem to be lively.

...

Although it is not the first time I have come to the port of Fuhai City, and when I was in Huaiyuan County, I have not seen what those prosperous ports are like, but every time I come here, Zhang Yang cannot help but give birth to an inexplicable heart. The shock.

Fuhai Port is only one of the 17 ports owned by Yingzhou, and it is not the largest. Its scale and cargo throughput can only be ranked in the middle, but it is this port that made Zhang Yang the first time to come. When I almost lost my way.

The coastline of this port is more than 70 kilometers long and has more than 20,000 large and small docks and docks. In that cargo terminal, there are densely packed giant-like crane towers walking in the middle of such a port. It would almost give people the feeling of walking in the steel forest composed of ships and giant ships. It was here that Zhang Yang saw for the first time what a mega-ton ocean captain looked like.

The port is equipped with a special railway line to connect the traffic between the south and the north of the port. It takes almost an hour to take the railway from the southernmost end of the port to the northernmost end of the port, and to take the transportation train in the port.

Fuhai Port is very large, and Fuhai City is also very large. After coming to Taixia, all the information he came into contact with was collected in his mind, which gave Zhang Yang the first deep impression of Taixia in his bones. --Big!

Zhang Yang doesn’t know how big Taixia is, because the entire Eastern Continent, including the many inaccessible black-gray areas on the map, is the territory of Taixia. In the words of the Chinese, the entire Eastern Continent is Too summer but the inherent land.

In the land of Taixia, the most prosperous place is the nine great Chinese states. After the nine great Chinese states, there are 36 Shangzhou. After the 36th Shangzhou, there are 72 great states. The rest are in In those remote places, there are many small and medium-sized states and counties and population clusters that have not reached the scale of Shangzhou.

To become a big state in Taixia, there is one of the most basic conditions, that is, the number of Grade A cities in this state must be at least 108. There are other conditions and requirements.

After staying in Taixia for a few months, Zhang Yang has not understood how Taixia’s city levels are divided up to now. For Grade A cities, he only heard people say that cities like Yangcheng of Jinyun Country In Taixia, it barely meets the requirements of a Grade A city. This so-called reluctance only refers to the population and economic scale that Yiyang City and its surroundings can accommodate. Other indicators are even Yiyang. The city is also a little reluctant.

In the Weiyi subcontinent, the country that imitates Taixia everywhere is the Norman Empire. Many of the social systems of the Norman Empire are copied from Taixia, such as the city's hierarchical system and the country's class system.

The founding emperor of the Norman Empire, who was famous in the Weiyi subcontinent, became commonplace in Taixia. In the eyes of most people in Taixia who knew the Norman Empire, the so-called founding emperor of the Norman Empire, It’s just a clever one who admires Chinese culture and has traveled in Taixia for a few years. Fortunately, he learned something, and then returned to a place outside of China and began to use the little things he learned to dominate the king. It's just guys. There are many such people, and there are many on all continents and in those so-called alienated places, and even to this day, many guys with the same ideas and dreams come to Taixia every year, hoping to be here. Find a shortcut to the sky after they return to their homeland in a magical land.

As a Chinese living overseas, after returning to Taixia, the first thing that needs to adapt is the inherently strong self-confidence and pride of the Taixia Chinese. Such confidence and pride have developed in Taixia After a certain degree, some stubborn and proud Chinese people began to regard themselves as protoss.

In this era, every Chinese living in Taixia has such a proud capital.

Take Yingzhou as an example. Yingzhou is a big state. On the map, the span of Yingzhou from north to south and east to west is more than 20,000 kilometers. Only the land area of ​​a state in Yingzhou has surpassed the entire Blackson tribe. If the total area of ​​all the national territories of the corridor is connected to the large and small overseas islands and sea areas under the jurisdiction of Yingzhou, the size of Yingzhou is several times larger than the Blackson Corridor.

Of course, Yingzhou is not only big, as an Shangzhou, besides being big, Yingzhou is also very prosperous.

Yingzhou is divided into seven counties. Among the seven counties, in addition to more than 130 Grade A cities, there are more than 1,000 other cities below Grade A, and there are tens of thousands of large and small towns. Seventeen years Earlier, the Yingzhou Provincial Governor had calculated the total salt consumption of Yingzhou as a whole, and concluded that the total Chinese population in Yingzhou was between 6.7 billion and 70. Between 100 million yuan, and today, this number can only be more.

Only Yingzhou has such a scale. It is conceivable that Taixia is prosperous and powerful.

After coming to Yingzhou, the first thing Zhang Yang bought was a full map of Taixia, which was nearly four square meters in size. This full map of the territory was already small, and it was in that map. Above, Zhang Yang calculated the distance from the southernmost to northernmost side of Taixia, except for the gray area on the territorial map, and then came up with a number-380,000 kilometers.

What is this concept? It is equivalent to that if a person rides a train, the speed of the train can reach 100 kilometers per hour. In addition to stopping for two hours a day to add water and coal, the train is constantly walking on a horizontal line. It takes half a year to take the train from the southernmost part of Taixia to the northernmost on the straight railway that runs through the north and south of Taixia. In fact, Zhang Yang heard that from the southernmost part of Taixia to the northernmost part, many people have tried it. It usually takes more than a year and eight months to arrive by train.

On the map, the distance from the east to the west of Taixia is about one-third longer than the distance from the south to the north.

I don’t know why, after coming to Taixia, Zhang Yang’s heart settled down. He didn’t feel that kind of stability when he was in Heiyan City. When he returned to Huaiyuan County, he was a little settled, but he was not completely settled. After he settled down, he set foot on the land of Taixia and knew that there were hundreds of millions of black-haired and black-eyed Chinese living here. Zhang Yang's heart calmed down. Those who had been restless in his heart for more than 20 years The murmur of anxiety disappeared, and some of the original worries about coming to a strange place disappeared without a trace.

Zhang Yang felt that here, Taixia, was the place where the descendants of the Zhang family really settled down and took root, and it was also the place where he showed his talents and laid the foundation for the future of the Zhang family.

Zhang Ping said that this is the true return of fallen leaves.

...

Zhang Yang took a few entourages and waited near the wharf area of ​​Fuhai Port "Maozi 08". After inquiring, Zhang Yang knew that those ships from overseas with a scale of 50,000 tons and more than 30,000 tons would eventually dock. On the pier near "Maozi 08". Here, ships of different tonnages have different docking areas, and the water depths and terminal facilities in different areas are also different. In the dock area starting with "zi", all the mega-ships above the million-ton level are docked. The huge ship with a capacity of more than 10,000 tons basically docks in the dock area starting with "ugly".

People from Zhang’s family traveled from the Weiyi subcontinent to Yingzhou in Taixia after spending more than two months in the airship last year. The airship is fast and comfortable. The disadvantage is that it cannot take many people on such a long-distance flight. Can't carry too many things. For this reason, when Zhang Yang left Huaiyuan County last year, he decided to evacuate in batches. The second group of people will arrive today. They are riding a group purchased by the Golden Crow Business Group from Zhangjia’s Galaxy Shipyard. The 36,000-ton ocean-going ship Anqing, after being bumped at sea for nine months, yesterday sent a message that it will arrive at Yingzhou Fuhai Port this morning. Therefore, Zhang Yang took a few people with him. Wait here.

On the giant wheel, in addition to some reliable backbones in the various departments of the Golden Crow Business Group and their family members, there are also some things that Zhang Yang asked to bring from Huaiyuan County. Among those things, Zhang Tie and his father managed to tinker. Some of the key equipment of the airship manufacturing factory, anyway, were valuable and valuable household goods, Zhang Yang packed and shipped them all at once.

Zhang Yang waited on the pier for more than two hours, but the Anqing ship had no shadow. Instead, several other huge ships that did not know where they came from stopped at the nearby pier of "Maozi 08".

As soon as those huge ships came to a stop, the people on the huge ship began to squeeze onto the deck and cheered. The feeling of going ashore to those people was like having escaped from the sea of ​​bitterness and reached the other shore. Everything here is for those people. In all, they are all so fresh and so beautiful.

Zhang Yang looked at those people and thought of the scene when he first came to Yingzhou.

At this time, the people who were able to ship to Yingzhou were people with rich wealth and some accumulation. This can be seen from the clothes of those who disembarked.

...

"Ah, Dad, what's that?" A group of people coming off the huge wheel passed by Zhang Yang. In the crowd, an eleven or twelve-year-old girl in a beautiful skirt was hugged and hugged. Something in the sky cried.

"Miss, of course it is an airship. Besides the airship, what else can we have? When we get down, the master will naturally consider buying an airship for the family as a means of transportation. I heard that this is a big summer. If you don’t have an airship, it’s very inconvenient!” A chubby woman beside the little girl coaxed the little girl and said, “I didn’t expect the lady to learn Chinese for two years, and now she speaks so well!”

"No, Lisa, that's not an airship, there are no airbags on it..." the little girl called.

"How can it be?"

A few people raised their heads in disbelief, then they were startled, and then shouted, "Ah, really, what is that, how could it be flying in the air without an airbag!"

The calls of these people attracted more people's attention, so more people who disembarked stopped and raised their necks together to look at the sky.

Zhang Yang also raised his head. Just at an altitude of thousands of meters, there is indeed a 200-meter-long thing floating in the sky. Not only is the shape different from the airship that everyone sees, but there is no air bag at all. , There are no such things as wings and wings. From below, it looks like a naked ship. Unlike an ordinary ship, the ordinary ship floats on the water, and the ship is floating in the sky.

This is the second time Zhang Yang has seen such a flying boat in the past few months when he came to Yingzhou. Compared with the dumbfounded when he first saw this thing, Zhang Yang is much better at this moment, but that thing still makes people feel better. Never tire of it, I was deeply shocked by the power of civilization demonstrated by Taixia.
