Chapter 405 Chapter 404 Transnational Railway
It took Zhang Hao two days to figure out what happened at sea.
The route passed through the sea area of Mirage Dragon. At first, Mirage Dragon provoked the Dayang Group twice, but then gradually became more honest-although it would occasionally release a little mist, but most of them were irrelevant, and Dayang Group would respond a little bit-try with a few shells. early adopters.
But for the time being, the two sides seem to be living in peace.
Since the opening of the new route, there have been more than 500 boat trips from Qixia Country to Taotu Continent.
So everyone gradually calmed down, and gradually became a little more relaxed. Unexpectedly, this time, the mirage dragon called rescuers from all around. There were five mirage dragons, all of which were at the height of the transformation stage, and there were also a large number of shrimp soldiers and crab generals. Unable to guard against, Dayang Group's battleship suffered a loss.
The warship Zhiyuan, which had the smallest displacement and the weakest defense, was the first to attack, and its keel was destroyed after only ten minutes. But relying on the solid outer armor, the battleship persisted for a while, but after all, it still failed to escape the fate of sinking.
After the other three warships rescued people, Dugu Junjie decisively gave the order—turn back!
Since then, the battleship has been chasing and fleeing all the way, and the battleship must not be able to escape the mirage dragon, but relying on its solid defense, it has also supported it for more than a day. And relying on bombs, especially the murderous ballista, the mirage dragon is also scarred.
But when the shells ran out and all attack methods were used up, the mirage dragons went crazy.
In the end, it was Dugu Junjie who became ruthless, and drove the battleship directly into the smallest mirage dragon, his head was badly hit. However, the largest mirage dragon among them went crazy and gave the battleship a tail.
At that time, the battleship was damaged and floated more than ten meters sideways on the sea surface. But the mirage dragon was not feeling well either, its tail was torn apart, and it completely lost its fighting power.
The two parties separated.
Zhang Hao nodded after hearing this, and praised Dugu Junjie for his correct decision.
But at this time, the influence also spread. The warship of Dayang Group finally encountered a sea monster. Everyone was worried, will the route be cut off again?
In the turmoil, Zhang Hao had to stand up and say: We have re-opened the route to the Emerald Sea, so don't worry.
In fact, since the Dayang Group sold the steel battleship, the heaven-sealed formation, and a large amount of technical information to the Xiaoyao Group, the Xiaoyao Group has turned a blind eye to the Dayang Group; It was 'sneaky' all at once. But it is tacitly understood by everyone.
The Xiaoyao faction saw the contradiction between the Dayang Group and the Xuanzhen Sect, and of course they would not let it go if they had the opportunity to poach the wall. Although the death of Daoist Dingshan was caused by Zhang Hao, at that time Zhang Hao represented the country of Qixia, and after all, the matter has passed, and the future is more important.
In addition, Zhang Hao also said that we are about to roll off 5 warships. For the safety of the route, after the five warships are launched, the Dayang Group, the country, and the Xuanzhen Sect will all act together to hunt and kill the mirage dragon!
After simply appeasing the people, Zhang Hao went to the Dayang Group headquarters—or the office headquarters, the Dayang Group Building in Ninghe County without stopping.
Originally, this was the Zhang family's mansion, which was later leased to Dayang Group. But now, the entire Ninghe County belongs to the Zhang family, and Zhang Hao directly allocated this land to the Dayang Group—anyway, it is a matter of left handing and right handing.
But what Dayang Group is going to discuss today is a big event - railway rights!
Today's Dayang Group is relatively powerful. The group has three god-transformation stages, and the Nascent Soul stage exceeds two thousand, which is comparable to the peak power of a country. Not to mention wealth, even if the technology is leaked, the Dayang Group is still as rich as an enemy.
You must know that many key technologies such as steel technology and oil refining technology are in the hands of Dayang Group.
And now, Dayang Group has started a new expansion, this is the railway. This railway, which started from the port of Changshan Town and is now officially named "Changshan Port", has been passing through the old capital of the Kingdom of Jinyang, crossing Qiufeng Ridge, passing through the vicinity of the imperial capital of the Kingdom of Canglan, and arriving at the city of Shaoze. country.
After reaching the country of Shaoze, continue northward, connecting to the country of Changlin, which is Xuanzhen Sect.
Here in the Land of Canglan, there is another branch that goes south to Qianlong Port.
The planned mileage of the entire railway is about 30,000 kilometers, and a dual-track system is adopted. The inspection of the places along the way has been completed, and the negotiation has no problem.
This railway will connect the three major countries, and will connect the ports of the Qixia Country and the Canglan Country, and connect the resources of the Shaoze Country. A preliminary economic circle will be initially revealed after the railway is completed.
Now, all the preparations are complete, just wait for Zhang Hao to sign, and then the ground can be broken.
Looking at the planning map, Zhang Hao found that within the Qixia Kingdom, the railway had already extended to Anqing, the imperial capital of the former Jinyang Kingdom. But now the Qixia Kingdom's imperial capital is ready to move here. After more than three months of construction, the imperial capital is still under construction.
Unlike Jianwu City, which is temporary in nature, Liu Xinyu wants to build Anqing into a real and permanent imperial capital. Therefore, the project is huge. There are already four main railways extending from Anqing - east, west, north, south, in four directions; and enough space has been reserved for future expansion.
The main artery in the plan is to extend from the east of Anqing City, cross Jingshan City (the place where Zhang Hao visited the battlefield for the first time), then extend to the southeast, and then cross the "One Line of Sky".
A line of sky is a gap on Qiufeng Ridge, a checkpoint between the Kingdom of Canglan and the Kingdom of Jinyang (now the Kingdom of Qixia), and it is also the most dangerous checkpoint.
Legend has it that this place was hacked by a super expert, so there is this "one-line sky level".
The biggest difficulty now lies in the sky.
The Land of Canglan still attaches great importance to this level. But if a railway is to be built, this line of barriers will exist in name only.
The first line of sky is very dangerous. If you want to build a railway, you must dig a mountain.
Of course, the meaning of the Canglan Kingdom is that the railway needs to be built, but you, Dayang Group, also want to build a checkpoint for me here, which must be strong enough. When necessary, we will cut off here.
What the Land of Canglan said is very clear - in case there is another war between us in the future, we must have means of self-protection. It's a little disturbing that Qixia Kingdom is so strong now.
Zhang Hao looked at the map for a long time, and finally nodded, "Satisfied with the decision of the Canglan Kingdom. Isn't it just to build a checkpoint, which doesn't cost much. Just treat it as a special station construction.
In the future, if our two sides really want to turn against each other, we can attack from the sea. Now we are neighbors! "
Zhang Hao finally signed.
The next morning, the plan was delivered to Liu Xinyu, and at noon it was delivered to the Emperor of the Land of Canglan. The two parties signed again, and the plan was formally implemented.
On the third day, the railway construction department of Dayang Group began to get busy.
