History
Establishing their benelovent control over Southern China, the area bloomed under the Song Emperors, as they were the first in the world to issue banknote and paper money and were the first Chinese dynasty to establish a permanent navy to protect the coastal cities from pirates. Liberalization of the markets resulted in a thriving commercial empire and a population boom further fueled the economy. Scientificaly, China entered a golden age, with the discovery of gunpowder, the development of quality weapons, advances in nautical engineering and the development of the movable type printing press.

Now, with every aspect of society thriving, the Song Emperor has set his sight on re-uniting China into the most advanced and powerful Empire the world has ever seen.

You are good to go. Don't forget to make a court for your nation so that you can participate in diplomacy.

Repeating Crossbowmen. Chu-ko-nu
The Chu-ko-nu is a regular crossbow with a wooden magazine attached to it, as well as a mechanical lever which, with a single motion, pulls back the string and cocks the bolt, allowing for a much quicker reload then with a normal crossbow. The drawbacks are that the Chu-ko-nu delivers much less of a punch and is less accurate then a regular crossbow. Ideal for delivering a witheling hail of fire to the enemy's medium and lightly armored soldiers, but next to useless against the heavily armored troops.
Completion date: 2,5 weeks

The Emperor has decreed that a total of:
10,000 Pikemen
1,000 Crossbowmen
500 Guandao Infantry

Will be recruited and added to the Song Imperial Army

In addition, the Song Imperial Navy will be expanded with an additional:
50 galleys
