- Eastern Continent, Taixia, Yingzhou
As the most powerful and awe-inspiring country in this era, it is also the core area of ??human civilization in this era. The Eastern Continent, where hundreds of millions of Chinese people gather, is not only the homeland that every Chinese people dream about. , and it is the pinnacle of the entire human civilization and power in this era. When every historian of the human race talks about the most important reason why human beings can continue to survive after the catastrophe, the Eastern Continent - Taixia-Hua Clan ¡ª¡ªThese three trinity words must always be placed in the most important position.
If there were no Chinese and no Taixia, mankind would have perished long ago in the first two holy wars. This is a consensus recognized by almost every historian, and anyone with a clear understanding of this era will lament that this is sigh - the Black Iron Age is an era that belongs to the Chinese and Taixia people.
In this era, the survival of the Chinese race and the strength of Taixia have become the greatest hope for the continued survival of the entire human race.
If we do not pay attention to tracing back the history and legends that happened in more distant times, the human race at this moment has a written history of almost 6,000 years. If the 6,000-year history is used as a coordinate, the history of mankind before the catastrophe occupies It lasted for about 5,000 years, and the human history after the cataclysm was less than 900 years ago. In the 6,000-year history of the human race, a country as powerful and prosperous as Taixia today has never appeared. , so much so that in almost all human history textbooks, it is difficult to find a country or alliance that can be compared with Taixia. All the so-called glorious and powerful countries and alliances that exist in history books. Compared with today's Taixia, they were instantly eclipsed like fireflies competing for brightness with the bright moon.
Taixia¡¯s strength and prosperity. It has reached a level that is difficult for many people to understand. Those people cannot understand it and can only envy it, and then desperately try to find ways to get closer. This kind of approach becomes even more urgent when the holy war comes. As Taixia Yingzhou, one of the seventy-two major states, is located near the sea. As a gateway to Taixia, after the outbreak of the Jihad, a large number of overseas immigrants poured into Yingzhou. The whole of Yingzhou, especially the cities near the sea, seemed lively.
¡¡
Although this is not the first time I have come to the port of Fuhai City, I have seen what those bustling ports look like when I was in Huaiyuan County. But every time I come here. Zhang Yang couldn't help but feel an inexplicable shock in his heart.
Fuhai Port is only one of the seventeen 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 come here for the first time. I almost lost my way.
This port has a coastline of more than 70 kilometers, with more than 20,000 large and small shipyards and docks, including cargo terminals. There are densely packed giant-like hanging towers everywhere, walking in the middle of such a port. It simply gives people the feeling of walking in a steel forest composed of ships and giant ships. It was here that Zhang Yang saw for the first time what a million-ton ocean-going giant ship looked like.
The port is equipped with a special railway line connecting the north and south 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 take the transportation train in the port.
Fuhai Port is very big, and Fuhai City is also very big. After coming to Taixia, all the information he came into contact with was summarized in his mind. Zhang Yang¡¯s first deep-rooted impression of Taixia was just one word. ¡ª¡ªbig!
Zhang Yang didn't know how big Taixia was, because the entire Eastern Continent, including the many inaccessible black and gray areas on the map, was Taixia's territory. In Chinese terms, the entire Eastern Continent was. Tai Xia is an inherent land.
In the land of Taixia, the most prosperous places are the nine great divine states. After the nine great divine states, there are the thirty-six upper states. After the thirty-six upper states, there are seventy-two great states. The rest are in In those remote places, there are many small and medium-sized prefectures and counties and population gathering areas that have not reached the size of the upper state.
To become a large state in Taixia, there is one most basic condition, that is, the number of Class A cities in this state must reach at least 108. There are many other conditions and requirements.
After staying in Taixia for several months, Zhang Yang has still not understood how the city levels in Taixia are divided. For Class A cities, he has only heard people say that cities like Jinyun Guoyangcheng are , in Taixia, it barely meets the requirements of a Class A city. This so-called barely refers to the population and economic scale that Yiyang City and its surroundings can accommodate. Some other indicators, even if Yiyang Cheng was also a little reluctant.
In the Hawaiian subcontinent, the country that is imitating Taixia everywhere is the Norman Empire. Many of the social systems of the Norman Empire are??They are all copied from Taixia, such as the city's class division system, the country's class division system, etc.
The founding emperor of the Norman Empire, who was famous in the Hawaiian subcontinent, has become common in Taixia. In the eyes of most people in Taixia who know the Norman Empire, the so-called founding emperor of the Norman Empire, He was just a smart guy who admired Chinese culture and traveled in Taixia for a few years. He was lucky enough to learn a few things. Then he returned to a foreign land and began to use what he learned to dominate the world. Just a guy. There are many such people in various continents and in so-called alien lands, and even to this day, many guys with the same ideas and dreams come to Taixia every year, hoping to be here In this magical land, they can find a shortcut to the sky that can allow them to return to their homeland.
As a Chinese living overseas, the first thing I need to adapt to after returning to Taixia is the innately strong self-confidence and pride of the Chinese in Taixia. Such self-confidence and pride have developed into After a certain level, some stubborn and extremely proud Chinese people began to regard themselves as gods.
In this era, every Chinese living in Taixia has the capital to be so proud.
?? Take Yingzhou as an example. Yingzhou is a big state. On the map, Yingzhou spans more than 20,000 kilometers in the north-south and east-west directions, and is only the land area of ??Yingzhou. It has exceeded the combined territorial area of ??all the countries in the entire Blackson Human Corridor. If the area of ??the large and small overseas islands and sea areas under the jurisdiction of Yingzhou is included, the size of Yingzhou has exceeded that of Blackson. Human corridor several times.
Of course, Yingzhou is not only big. As a Shangzhou, Yingzhou is not only big. It's also very prosperous.
Yingzhou is divided into seven counties. In addition to more than 130 Grade A cities, there are more than 1,000 other cities below Grade A in the seven counties. There are tens of thousands of towns, large and small. Seventeen years ago, the governor's office of Yingzhou roughly counted the total Chinese population in Yingzhou by calculating the salt consumption of the entire Yingzhou and came to the conclusion that. The Chinese population living in the entire Yingzhou is between 6.7 billion and 7 billion. Today, this number can only be higher.
??Yingzhou alone has such a scale, one can imagine the prosperity and power of Taixia.
After arriving in Yingzhou, the first thing Zhang Yang bought was a map of Taixia's territory, which was nearly four square meters in size. This map of the territory was already considered small. On the map, Zhang Yang calculated the area on the territory map excluding the gray areas. It has been possible to draw a clear map of the distance from the southernmost point to the northernmost point of Taixia, and then came up with a number - 380,000 kilometers.
What is this concept? This is equivalent to if a person takes a train, the speed of the train can reach 100 kilometers per hour. Except for stopping for two hours a day to add water and coal, the train is constantly traveling on a highway that crosses the north and south of Taixia. On the straight railway, it only takes half a year to go from the southernmost point of Taixia to the northernmost point. In fact, Zhang Yang heard that many people have tried to travel from the southernmost point to the northernmost point of Taixia. It usually takes more than a year and eight months to arrive by train.
On the map, the distance from the easternmost point to the westernmost point of Taixia is almost one-third longer than the distance from the southernmost point to the northernmost point.
I don¡¯t know why, but after coming to Taixia, Zhang Yang¡¯s heart settled down. He didn¡¯t feel that stable when he was in Black Flame City. When he returned to Huaiyuan County, he felt a little more settled, but not completely. After settling down, Zhang Yang's heart calmed down after he set foot on the land of Taixia and learned that there were hundreds of millions of Chinese people with black hair and eyes like himself living here. Those who had been restless in his heart for more than twenty years The uneasy noises disappeared, and some of the worries about coming to a strange place suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Zhang Yang felt that this place, Taixia, was the place where the descendants of the Zhang family could truly settle down and take root. It was also the place where he could show his talents and lay a foundation for the future of the Zhang family.
Zhang Ping said, this is the true return of fallen leaves to their roots.
¡¡
Zhang Yang and several entourages were waiting near the dock area of ??"Mao Zi No. 08" in Fuhai Port. Through inquiring, Zhang Yang knew that ships from overseas with less than 50,000 tons and more than 30,000 tons would eventually dock. On the dock near "Maozi No. 08". Here, ships of different tonnage have different docking areas, and the water depth and terminal facilities in different areas are also different. In the terminal area starting with the word "Zi", all the super ships with a million tons or more are docked, and the 50 Giant ships of more than 10,000 tons are basically docked in the dock area starting with the word "ugly".
Last year, the Zhang family took an airship for more than two months from the Hawaiian subcontinent to Yingzhou in Taixia. The airship was fast and comfortable, but the disadvantage was that it was such a long distance.?You cannot carry many people or carry too many things on a flight. For this reason, Zhang Yang decided to evacuate in batches when he left Huaiyuan County last year. The second batch of people will arrive today. They are traveling on a ship purchased by the Jinwu Business Group from the Zhang family's Galaxy Shipyard. The 36,000-ton ocean-going ship Anqing. After nine months of bumps on the sea, the Anqing ship sent a message yesterday that it would arrive at Yingzhou Fuhai Port this morning. Therefore, Zhang Yang took a few people with him. Wait here.
On the giant ship, in addition to some reliable backbones from various departments of the Jinwu Merchant Group and their families, there were also some things that Zhang Yang had brought from Huaiyuan County. Among those things, there was something that Zhang Tie and his father had managed. Some of the key equipment of the airship manufacturing plant were valuable and valuable possessions anyway, so Zhang Yang packed them up and shipped them all at once.
Zhang Yang waited on the dock for more than two hours, but there was no sign of the Anqing. Instead, several other giant ships from unknown sources docked at the dock near "Maozi No. 08".
As soon as those giant ships docked, the people on the giant ships began to crowd onto the deck and cheer. For those people, the feeling of landing was as if they had escaped from the sea of ??suffering and reached the other shore. Everything here, for those people To me, everything is so fresh and beautiful.
Zhang Yang looked at those people and thought of the first time he came to Yingzhou.
At this time, the people who came to Yingzhou by ship were all wealthy and accumulated people. This can be seen from the clothes of those who got off the ship.
¡¡
"Ah, Dad, what is that?" A group of people coming off the giant wheel passed by Zhang Yang. Among the crowd, an eleven or twelve-year-old girl in a beautiful dress who was being shouted at suddenly looked up at the sky and pointed. Something in the sky screamed.
"Miss, of course it is an airship. In addition to airships, what else can we have? When we settle down, the master will naturally consider buying an airship for the family as a means of transportation. I heard that Taixia is very big and we have to travel far away. It would be very inconvenient without an airship!" A chubby woman next to the little girl coaxed the little girl, "I didn't expect that the lady has only learned Chinese for two years, and now she can speak it so well!"
"No, Lisa, that's not an airship, there are no airbags on it" the little girl yelled.
"How can it be?"
Several people looked up in disbelief, then froze, and then shouted, "Ah, really, what is that? How can it fly in the air without an airbag!"
The shouts of these people attracted the attention of more people, so more people who got off the boat stopped and raised their necks to look at the sky.
Zhang Yang also raised his head. There was indeed something more than 200 meters long floating in the sky thousands of meters high. Not only was the shape of that thing different from the airships everyone had seen, but it also had no airbags at all. , and there are no wings or wings. From below, it looks like a naked ship. Unlike ordinary ships, which float on the water, that ship is floating in the sky.
In the past few months since he came to Yingzhou, this is the second time that Zhang Yang has seen such a flying boat. Compared with the dumbfounding when he saw this thing for the first time, Zhang Yang is much better now, but that thing is still shocking. I never tire of watching it, and I am deeply shocked by the power of civilization demonstrated by Taixia. (To be continued) - Didn't finish reading?
