Looking at the overgrown wasteland around, Liu Heng's eyes were full of heartache. With a little work, this land could be excellent rice fields!
Upon hearing this, Zhu Haomiao nodded thoughtfully, recalling some statistics from the present world.
During the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom war, Dai Qing's population sharply reduced from 400 million to 240 million, a loss of nearly 40% of the population, a full 160 million people!
However, this figure is disputed, as the statistics included many who fled and migrated as deaths.
Yet even conservatively estimated, the population loss during this period was around 50 million to 100 million, and the bloody brutality was shocking.
Needless to say, the total deaths in World War I and World War II combined were less than 100 million people worldwide!
Dai Qing, by itself, caused military losses equivalent to those of the Allies and Allies!
