The nomads who migrated northward took over the territory that Chu State had developed for thirty years, but even with their cultural and technological level, it was difficult for them to utilize it all.
However, simply relying on the basic water conservancy facilities, these people could ensure a good harvest just by scattering seeds in the fields.
With just a bit of attention to farming, they could easily sustain tens of millions of people.
With grain secured, these Barbarians then put down roots in the territory of Yangzhou.
In time, using this as a base, they would gradually encroach upon the land, and I fear it would take less than ten years for the entire southwest and Lingnan to be lost.
Even the prefectures and counties at the heart of Yangzhou would suffer from infiltration, invaded by those Barbarians.
When that time came, the spectacle of the Southern Barbarians moving north would reach its most climactic chapter.
