Chapter 1055 Nanchangshan Island
While Huangfu Chaobo and Guo Jiazheng were talking, Shi A hurried over from the direction of the county government and said: "My lord, a pigeon message came from Qingdao City, saying that Ye Laixiang's military advisor Xi Zhicai asked for an audience. He is already waiting in Qingdao. It’s been two days since I learned that my lord has arrived at Shuanghe, so I sent another pigeon message to Shuanghe.”
After hearing this, Guo Jia smiled and said to Huangfu Chaobo: "How is it? Xi Zhicai actually took action in person. It seems that Ye Laixiang is determined to fight Cao Cao."
Huangfu Chaobo had already thought about it at this time. If the war ceases, let's cease the war. Now he really doesn't want to continue fighting. He just seizes the time to transfer the people and improve his arrangements. Thinking of this, he said to Shi A: "Command to Qingdao and ask them to arrange for the navy to send Xi Zhicai to Shuanghe City. Fengxiao, I will leave the matter of Xi Zhicai to you. I will follow the water tomorrow." The army goes to sea and heads to Changshan Island. The establishment of the territory cannot be delayed any longer, and the war in Shuanghe City will be left to you and Gao Shun. "
Both of them bowed and accepted the order.
Huangfu Chaobo nodded, then turned to the County Magistrate Han Dian and said: "County Magistrate Han, how long will it take for General Jiang Qin's Nu Tao Camp to return?"
Because Jiang Qin's Nutao camp already has two schools of navy escorting the second batch of 30,000 people to Leting, but they have not returned yet. Currently, only one school of navy remains in Shuanghe City, so Huangfu Chaobo asked such a question. . The one escorting Huangfu Chaobo this time was the navy from Pan Feng's Fubo Camp.
Seeing this, Han Dian quickly replied: "According to the itinerary, it usually only takes a month to go back and forth from Shuanghe to Leting. I estimate that General Jiang's navy should be able to get back in a few days. "
"Forget it, I won't wait any longer. The first navy from Nutao Camp and the first navy from Fubo Camp will set off with me tomorrow to go to Changshan Island. You must arrange for 20,000 soldiers and soldiers before tomorrow morning. Two thousand guards, let them board the ship early tomorrow morning." At this point, he suddenly said: "The 20,000 people must be equipped with all kinds of craftsmen, as well as some materials needed to build the territory."
"I accept the order! We will start making arrangements immediately, and it will not delay the lord's schedule." Han Dian bowed and accepted the order;
After a group of people entered the yard prepared by Han Dian for Huangfu Chaobo, Huangfu Chaobo said: "Okay, I'll stay for a while as a courtesy, and everyone else can go their own way!"
After everyone agreed, they turned and left.
Huangfu Chaobo only stayed in Shuanghe City for one night. Early the next morning, he boarded the ship. With a group of more than 20,000 people and dozens of building boats and sand ships, they headed east towards the rising sun under the escort of 10,000 navy troops. .
Three days later, the fleet finally arrived at Nan Changshan Island. At this time, the pirates on Changshan Island had been annihilated by the navy, leaving only hundreds of prisoners guarded by more than a hundred navy soldiers who were cutting down trees and Collect stones to prepare for subsequent territory construction.
The fleet docked at a simple dock on the west side of Nanchangshan Island. This was originally where pirate ships were parked. Huangfu Chaobo looked up at the island, and then recalled Nan in reality in his mind. Regarding the situation of Changshan Island, it is basically certain that this is the location of the Changdao Harbor of South Changshan Island in reality. This should be the middle position of South Changshan Island.
After landing on the island, Huangfu Chaobo saw that the navy that had arrived first had asked the prisoners to build a simple camp at the dock that could accommodate ten or twenty thousand people. When he saw the fleet docking, a small colonel immediately came forward. meet.
"Reporting to the general, Zheng Xiao, the commander of Section A of School C of the Nutao Camp of the Tang Army Navy, has been ordered to garrison Changshan Island!" The commander ran up to Huangfu Chaobo and reported with excitement;
Huangfu Chaobo nodded and said with approval: "Yes, a hundred people and a few hundred prisoners can build a simple camp in a few days."
"Hehe, in fact, the general didn't do anything. This was originally the pirate's old camp. There were dozens of wooden houses in it. The general just ordered people to renovate it, and then led others to build a few larger ones. "The wooden house." The commander replied with an embarrassed look;
Huangfu Chaobo nodded,
Then he said to Dian Wei: "Order the army to land on the shore. Two thousand guards will be responsible for carefully searching the entire Nanchangshan Island to confirm that the island is absolutely safe. All the civilians and craftsmen began to disembark and prepare to build territories. The navy army The two schools left one school to guard the transport fleet, and the other school began to patrol the twenty-mile waters around the island to confirm whether the surrounding area was safe. After all the civilian craftsmen and materials were disembarked, the navy escorted them back to the two schools. River, start the next round of transportation.”
A string of orders came from Huangfu Chaobo's mouth, and everyone began to get busy, and the quiet Changshan Island suddenly became lively.
Huangfu Chaobo left 500 Tiebei battalion soldiers responsible for the security around the dock, and Dian Wei led the other 500 Tiebei battalion soldiers towards the south of the island. In reality, the southern part of Nanchangshan Island is where the central area of the county is located, so Huangfu Chaobo plans to locate the main base of the island in the southern part, which should be a flat land several miles long and wide.
A few miles south from the simple pier, we reached the southern part of the island. As Huangfu Chaobo expected, it was a gentle area of about several miles in length and width. However, it was still occupied by a large forest. Huangfu Chaobo turned his head to his side. A minor official from Shuanghe City who followed said: "Immediately send people to the dock to mobilize five hundred people and craftsmen to cut down all the trees here and clear out the flat land. This will be the location of the main stronghold in the future. By the way, let’s clear out the area near the foot of the mountain in the east, and I’ll build the village first.”
"The lower officials receive the order!" The clerks received the order immediately, and one of them turned around and ran quickly towards the direction of the dock. This time, in addition to these craftsmen and civilians, Huangfu Chaobo also specially selected more than a dozen clerks from the county government of Shuanghe City, preparing to build villages on these islands. Huangfu Chaobo did not have much time to stay here. They were mainly responsible for arranging the construction of the territory. After the main base was upgraded to the town level, most of the people in Shuanghe City should have moved here, and then Han Dian would be transferred to coordinate the overall situation. However, if Huangfu Chaobo wanted to let go completely, he had to wait until the main base here was upgraded to the city level and the dock was moved here.
A moment later, hundreds of civilians and craftsmen hurried over under the leadership of officials. Seeing that they were still preparing to salute him, Huangfu Chaobo waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite, start as soon as possible. The longer the time is delayed, the more dangerous the people in Shuanghe City will be, so we must tell the army that the faster the speed, the safer the people in Shuanghe City will be."
