    ,

    The rainy season is coming.

    Zhao Kuangbiao stood on the balcony of the palace and observed the temple in the distance with binoculars.

    The Brihadin Shivaro Temple, which means "the great master", is dedicated to Shiva.  There is a huge tower in the temple, 6341 meters high, which is the third tallest building in India.

    Both the temple hall and the temple tower are built of large blocks of granite without using any adhesives.  For hundreds of years, after many earthquakes, not only did it not collapse, even the wall was damaged.

    ? No obvious cracks were found.  The top of the temple tower is carved from two complete pieces of granite, each weighing 30 tons. It is hard to imagine how it was transported up.  seven 9

    Due to the open square inside the temple, it was requisitioned by the British army as a barracks in history, and it was returned to King Tanjore after more than 30 years of use.

    After taking back the temple, King Sefoji II immediately cleaned the temple's dirt and held a grand celebration ceremony.

    At that time, the British Viscount Valencia happened to be visiting Tanjore and was invited by the king to participate in the celebration.

    The Viscount Valencia is a friend of the king. He expressed his doubts in his notes: "This king was forced into exile since he was a child and was raised by British missionaries. He is familiar with Western literature,

    He is proficient in European languages ??and has extraordinary talents in philosophy, poetry, mathematics, and dance.  If in Europe, he must be - a good scholar, how could he become a superstitionist in India?

    What about people?

    c 3_

    From this, Viscount Valencia, come to the conclusion: this ignorant land conquered by civilization has never given birth to any flower of civilization worthy of scrutiny and praise! Jen 2]

    Zhao Kuangbiao put down the binoculars and said: "The Zhuluo Dynasty hundreds of years ago was really powerful. It not only dug irrigation canals along the river, but also built such majestic temples and towers."

    Wang Chongxi, who was standing next to him, said:

    "It was so hundreds of years ago, and it is still the same after hundreds of years. It can even be said that it has been going backwards. I heard that the irrigation canals along both sides of the river have been almost

    It hasn't been repaired for a hundred years.  Only when there is serious damage, each village will repair its own section.  Even if a small section of irrigation canal is repaired, it can be completed in two or three months, but it still takes a long time

    several years.  "5 1

    Zhao Kuangbiao said: "I think it's because of the caste system. The nobles in various villages don't regard the land as private property, but help the king manage it. Their minds are all used to enrich themselves.

    On the sac.  And the people are even less persistent, and no one is willing to repair the things of the public.

    "But during the Chola Dynasty, there was also a caste system, and the irrigation canal was built at that time." Ma Li said.

    ?Wang Chongxi said: "It's because the imperial court has no heart. Anyway, life is going well, so they don't bother to build water conservancy projects. In fact, it is easy to levy corvees in villages under the well field system.

    There is no need to pay wages, just take out some food.  "Jen 2]

    Zhao Kuang nodded and said: "Indeed."

    The dilapidated water conservancy facilities here in Tanjore, in another time and space, had to wait for the thousand or so remnants of the Green Church to seize power and establish a country before they could be repaired.  Regardless of high or low,

    The whole village was demoted to slaves, and then they were whipped to repair the water conservancy.

    Guan Xian said:  Rains are due in a few days, and Tamil officials say that after the first light rains, it is time to plant summer rice and wait for the rainy season.  In the real rainy season, unless the big

    The water floods the farmland, otherwise there will be no topdressing at the heading stage.  It is easy to grow rice here, unlike the exhausting work in the Celestial Dynasty.

    Wang Chongxi said: "So, the farmers here are too idle. And during the slack period, the diligent ones can only do some part-time jobs, and the lazy ones lie at home every day until the sun comes out.

    Come out and lie down.  Farmers here are farmers and cannot do carpentry work, because carpentry is another occupation of a small caste.  "

    Marley laughed and said: "If there are more and more Han Chinese in the future, and the land is not enough, will the Han peasants become carpenters and bricklayers? If they become carpenters and bricklayers, people of these two castes will

    up on,

    Do you feel that the Han Chinese have robbed them of their jobs?

    "Of course," Zhao Kuangbiao nodded, "As the number of Han people increases, conflicts will inevitably intensify, and maybe the natives will unite to rebel."

    Wang Chongxi said: "Your Highness, I have a way."

    "Tell me about it." Zhao Kuangbiao said.

    Wang Chongxi said: "Stable expansion bit by bit. If the expansion is too fast, the Han people will all become big landlords. I am afraid that they will lose their spirit. If the expansion is too slow, the Han people at the bottom will

    If there is resentment, the conflict with the natives will also intensify.  Slowly expand, keep hope for the Han people at the bottom, let the Han people at the bottom fight with the aborigines, but fight without breaking away from the academic control of the imperial court.  with

Now there are gold mines, and he will go to mine them. But for the time being  cannot

    Worry, our Han people are too small, and the place has not been completely stabilized.  "

    Guan Xian said: "The top priority is to repair the irrigation canals along the river after the rainy season is over. Even if we want to attack Canmei City, we have to wait until next year to send troops, and we need to find a

    A suitable excuse to send troops.  "

    "The excuse for sending troops is readily available. The city of Canmey did not obey the king's order and was unwilling to pay the city's commercial taxes." Marie said.

    Zhao Kuangbiao asked: "How many troops are there in Canmei City and its surrounding areas?

    Sun Kewang said: "I have found out clearly that there are only a few hundred soldiers in the city. Once you want to fight, you must be fast, and you can't let the nobles go to the village to gather troops. Otherwise, it is not a few hundred soldiers.

    People, but tens of thousands of people.  The aristocrats of Canmey City have great influence, controlling at least one-fifth of the country's village communities.  "

    Zhao Kuangbiao nodded and said: "If you send troops, go there by boat, surround the city, and don't give the enemy a chance to gather troops in the countryside. Even if you can gather troops, don't let them enter the city

    When fighting in the wild, no matter how many enemies there are, you are not afraid.  "

    Zhao Kuangbiao is not only not enough Han people, but also not enough Han officials.

    Even many official positions in the city are held by Tamil nobles.  A large number of soldiers are also literate, but the army cannot be dispersed, - half of them are stationed in the city, and the other half are thrown away

    Li village community.  It will be fine next year, as long as you can read and write, you can be an official. Han officials will gradually increase, and the national documents will be written in Chinese characters.

    There is no way now, but bilingual office, otherwise the Tamil official history in the city cannot be understood.  Benevolence
