Chapter 1060 Return to Yuzhou Mountain Island

After Zhou Yi's navy unloaded all personnel and materials, they directly escorted the transport fleet back. Huangfu Chaobo led the civilians and craftsmen to start the construction of a new territory. They built a territory next to the port where the pirates originally stationed, and the name was Lingshan Island Village. Although this village will eventually be upgraded to a town, it will be built like a military fortress. The east side of the four walls is directly next to the foot of the mountain, while the west wall is next to the dock.

After seeing the situation here, Huangfu Chaobo decided that only a thousand infantry soldiers, a thousand naval troops and a group of craftsmen would be stationed here. Of course, these soldiers will be rotated every once in a while, and the family members of the craftsmen will be arranged here. In a territory further south.

To the south of Lingshan Island Village, another village will also be built, in which the families of Lingshan Island craftsmen will live. The reason for this arrangement is that Huangfu Chaobo found that there are too few usable places here. After searching online, he found that even in reality, the permanent population of Lingshan Island is only more than 3,000.

Five days later, Zhou Yi escorted the transport fleet and rushed to Lingshan Island again. In addition to 20,000 people and craftsmen specially commissioned by Huangfu Chaobo, the subsequent fleet also contained a lot of food, which was delivered to Yuzhoushan Island at once. It is impossible to increase the population by 20,000 without bringing a large amount of food.

A few days later, the fleet arrived at the southeast port of Yuzhou Island. After a few years, Huangfu Chaobo set foot here for the second time. At first, he just wanted to sell war horses and buy back grain from Jiangdong and return to Sizhou for convenience. So I set up a transfer point here. I didn't expect that a few years later, I would use this place as a navy base.

Yang Hu, the person in charge of Yuzhou Mountain, Sun Lang, the navy general, and Wu Zhi, the person in charge of the Shadow Guard, had already greeted them at the pier. Looking at the three people's faces that had become dark due to the wind and sun at the beach for many years, Huangfu Chao Suddenly a feeling of emotion rose from the bottom of Bo's heart. Because of his arrangement, they had stayed here for several years, but he had almost forgotten them.

"General, I will pay homage to my lord!" Seeing Huangfu Chaobo get off the boat, the three of them paid homage together;

Huangfu Chaobo took two quick steps, helped the three of them up one by one, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, you three have stayed on this island for several years!"

"I died in the service of my lord. I dare not express my sorrow. I just failed to fulfill my lord's instructions. The combat barracks on the island are not yet full, but their combat power is not inferior to the elite of the Huben Battalion." Seeing Huangfu Chaobo say this, the three of them They were all excited, but Yang Hu reported the report in a panic;

"Oh, how many soldiers are there on the island now?" Huangfu Chaobo was stunned and asked;

"Reporting to my lord, there are currently 1,256 infantrymen and 3,587 naval troops on the island. None of them have reached the lord's initial requirements for a school of troops."

"At first, it should have only been given to the soldiers of the Tiebei Camp in Ruyitun. Now we can gather more than a thousand troops, which is already a very good job. The same is true for Sun Lang. The navy of the two schools now has more than 3,000 troops." No one was asked to support you. They were all picked out by the two of you after raiding the pirates in the East China Sea, right?"

"Yes!" replied the two;

Huangfu Chaobo still knew some of the situation on the island. When he first occupied this big island, he only left a hundred iron wall battalions and two thousand naval troops for the two of them, allowing them to clear out the pirates of all sizes in the East China Sea. Maintain the safety of business routes while increasing your own strength. In more than two years, the two of them actually increased their number of troops by nearly 3,000 by eliminating pirates. Not only that, the number of residents on the island has increased from a few hundred to nearly 5,000, which can be said to have been done very well. You know, the increased population and troops here were basically captured and captured after they wiped out the pirates.

Patting the shoulders of the two of them, and looking at Wu Zhi, the person in charge of the Shadow Guard next to him, Huangfu Chaobo said: "You three have done a great job. This time I have brought 20,000 people to prepare to develop Yuzhou Island with all our strength. In order to commend you three, if you want to leave here, I will transfer you all back to Sizhou.

If you don't want to, then get promoted to one level, continue to stay in Yuzhou Mountain, and assist subsequent officials to develop Yuzhou Mountain! "

The three of them looked at each other, shook their heads and said, "I am willing to stay in Yuzhou Mountain and guard this base for our lord."

"Okay," Huangfu Chaobo laughed and said, "Let's go, let's talk while we go, you can tell me the current situation on Yuzhou Island in detail!"

A few people walked all the way to the small town near the port. As they walked, Yang Hu introduced the current situation on Yuzhou Island to Huangfu Chaobo. As for the supplies carried by more than 20,000 people, craftsmen and fleets, there were also other supplies. People are responsible for arrangements.

Yuzhou Mountain Island was originally occupied by a group of nearly a thousand pirates. When Huangfu Chaobo went south to Jiangdong a few years ago, he easily wiped out this group of pirates, and then sent Yang Hu and Sun Lang Takezhi to occupy it as merchants. Team transfer location. After several years of development, there are currently nearly 10,000 people on the island. In order to accommodate these nearly 10,000 people, a few people upgraded the small village built on the island to a large village. Unfortunately, they did not upgrade it to a town because they did not have the authority. This large village is located near the port.

Basically, the people stationed in the village are soldiers. Half of the more than 1,000 military battalions are stationed here, and all the more than 3,000 navy soldiers are stationed here. As for other people and the remaining soldiers, they have been sent to the island. They were resettled in the valley inside. Since it was not a formal territory, they basically built ordinary wooden houses here and there to settle down.

After listening to their introduction, Huangfu Chaobo remained silent for a long time before gently patting the shoulders of the three of them and saying: "Let's go first to the village and upgrade the others to towns, and then we will enter the valley on the island. Build a city there so that the entire army can be settled."

The three of them also looked excited and said: "My lord, please!"

A group of people entered the administrative hall of the village. Huangfu Chaobo opened the operation interface, took out a town drawing, and clicked upgrade. As the administrative hall was surrounded by a halo, after a while, the halo dissipated, and the big village was upgraded to a small one. Town and village-level wooden administrative halls have also been transformed into stone buildings.

When it was first built, Huangfu Chaobo just picked up a name at random. This time, it took a leap to upgrade, and it was just right to change the name. So a town named Donghai Town appeared under the rule of the Tang Army.

Seeing the appearance of the three of them, Huangfu Chaobo said: "Let's go into the island."

But Yang Hu stopped him and said, "My lord, it's getting late. It's nearly ten miles from Donghai Town to the island, but the road is not easy to travel. We'd better go tomorrow."
