Chapter 435 Territory Situation

The gluttonous feast staged in Xianyang City, Shanhai City is just a bystander.

Ouyang Shuo was quite calm, a setback is a setback, there is nothing to justify.

Shanhai City, Southern Border Protectorate.

In the main hall, the political discussion in July is going on.

July is an unusual month for the Territory. In this month, the territory officially occupied the land of the three counties and formed the Southern Border Protectorate.

In July, under the command of "Wheelchair General" Sun Bin, the Huben Legion swept Qiongzhou Island. Both the natives on the island and the player's territory were destroyed by the army, and no one was spared.

For Sun Bin, sweeping Qiongzhou Island was just a small test.

This young commander will surely shine even brighter in future wars.

The most frightening thing is that Sun Bin is still making progress.

Ouyang Shuo had chatted with Sun Wu before, and he knew that Sun Bin would keep in touch with his grandfather after the war, exchanging his military knowledge.

From Sun Wu's tone, it was not difficult for Ouyang Shuo to discover the expectations and admiration of the Bing Sheng for this grandson.

This is the blessing of the soldier saint, and also the blessing of the territory.

Dai Qin, head of the second division of the Huben Legion, was awarded the title of General Dangkou because of his bravery and outstanding performance in battle. This "grassland black tiger" finally swept away the haze of the Lianzhou battle, and regained his dazzling brilliance.

In addition to Dai Qin, Shan Zhu, the deputy head of the third division, also performed brilliantly. According to the briefing Sun Bin sent to Ouyang Shuo, this young patriarch of the Li clan has made rapid progress.

Under Cao GUI's instruction, Shanzhu's combat command ability became stronger day by day.

A general star is slowly rising on Qiongzhou Island.

After the war, according to statistics, more than 70,000 fighters were captured by the Huben Legion, including soldiers from the territory and young fighters from indigenous tribes such as the Li people.

The number of ordinary people captured reached more than 400,000. There are no fewer than forty Li tribes that have been conquered. The entire Qiongzhou Island groaned under the blade of the Huben Legion.

The prisoners of war were screened and reorganized into the Qiongzhou County Garrison Division. Su Wang, brigade commander of the third brigade of the second division of the Huben Army, was appointed as the division commander of the Qiongzhou County Garrison Division.

After the formation of the Qiongzhou County Garrison Division, the Huben Army can reinforce other battlefields at any time.

After repeated battles, the third division of the Huben Legion, the first mountain division in the territory, has gradually formed and possessed a strong combat effectiveness.

Especially in mountain combat, it is even more eye-catching.

The Third Division was able to win the northern mountainous area of ​​Qiongzhou Island in one fell swoop.

After getting the news, Ouyang Shuo immediately instructed the Military Affairs Department to dispatch the third division of the Huben Legion to Shanhai City to assemble, and together with the first division of the Longxiang Legion, they crossed the Hundred Thousand Mountains and attacked Chiyou City.

The First Division of Longxiang Legion led by Shi Wansui had been stationed in Duanren Mansion, on the border of Shiwanda Mountain. During this time, Shi Wansui was not idle.

During his stay, Shi Wansui consciously tempered the army's mountain combat capabilities. He even specifically found the mountain tribe and asked them for jungle survival experience and skills.

In addition, it is to arrange scouts and find a suitable marching route. Then, along the road, establish supply points in advance to ensure the supply of the army.

Shi Wansui is not only brave in battle, but also has exceptionally rich experience in leading troops in battle. With the two master groups gathered together, Ouyang Shuo became more confident about crossing the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

Once this marching route is opened up, the significance is extraordinary. It not only provided a marching route for attacking Chiyou City, but also directly opened up the external communication channel of Lianzhou County.

With the expansion of the territory, the shortcomings of the location of the Lianzhou Basin have also begun to be exposed.

Closure is both an advantage and a disadvantage.

When the territory is still very weak, the advantages of being closed are of course more than the disadvantages, avoiding interference from big forces, and being able to develop with peace of mind.

The inability of the peasant uprising army in the wilderness to invade the Lianzhou Basin is the best proof.

but.

After the lord gradually becomes stronger, being closed means that the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

As the heart of the territory, Shanhai City's location is too hidden, which determines the difficulty of the Southern Border Protectorate's management of other territories.

In ancient times, good official roads and waterways were the lifeline of rule. Without one of them, it is easy to cause loss of control over local management.

For Shanhai City, this is even more serious.

Because apart from the Mulan Fortress, Shanhai City does not have a second main road of transportation to the outside world. The Qiongzhou and Leizhou counties that are currently occupied are managed through sea passages.

But what about the future?

Zhaoqing County, Wuzhou County, Xunzhou County...

These places cannot be managed through sea passages.

Therefore, it is very important to open up the external communication channel of the Lianzhou Basin.

***********

After the war, the entire Qiongzhou Island was completely brought under territorial rule.

Qiongzhou County officially established Yazhou Prefecture, Danzhou Prefecture and Qiongshan Prefecture.

Yashan City was established as the county seat of Qiongzhou.

The three prefectures are governed by the three first-level subordinate territories of Yashan City.

Yashan City uses a gold-level village building token, and the village-building token of the first-level subsidiary territory is a silver-level village building token. The potential of the governance is still very huge.

Qiongzhou Island is vast and sparsely populated. The most fundamental thing is to unite the aborigines on the island.

The county guard, Tian Wenjing, has been the chief negotiator for the territory's mountain barbarian affairs before, and has rich experience in dealing with foreign affairs. Under his leadership, the natives of Qiongzhou County are speeding up their integration into the territory.

Especially in the first half of the year, the first season of rice harvesting was completed, and the food problem in Qiongzhou County was solved. There was no need to import food anymore, and Tian Wenjing handled government affairs more easily.

Qiongzhou County has a superior geographical location and fertile land, which is suitable for vigorously developing agriculture.

In order to support the agricultural development of Qiongzhou County, Ouyang Shuo even instructed Southwest University to form an advisory group of agricultural experts to go to Qiongzhou County to assist it in formulating an agricultural development plan.

Agriculture is only the foundation. If Qiongzhou County wants to develop rapidly, the most fundamental thing is the group of adventure players.

In the entire Qiongzhou Island, apart from the vast Wuzhi Mountain and Nanshan Dongtian Secret Realm, there is another place that attracts the attention of adventure players, and that is the even more vast sea.

In the vast sea, there are not only various islands, but also countless pirates.

treasure? Rare material? Adventure?

Everything is so full of imagination.

For adventure players, the vast sea is more tempting than Wuzhishan.

Sun Xiaoyue, who lives in Yashan City, decisively wrote a letter to Ouyang Shuo based on the information she observed, suggesting that a large shipyard be built in Yashan City, specializing in the construction of various types of merchant ships and small and medium warships.

The built ships are either rented or sold directly, guiding adventure players to sail to the vast sea to explore the secrets of the sea.

Ouyang Shuo got the letter and immediately replied: agree.

Xiaoyue's vision is really sharp.

This humble suggestion will bring endless wealth to Yashan City in the future.

The three guilds of [Shanhai League-Guild Alliance] got the news and immediately stated that they would form a fleet to explore overseas islands.

What's more, Lin Jing directly asked Ouyang Shuo to present her with a large ship as a flagship, and she wanted to explore overseas islands by herself.

Lin Jing has been exploring Wuzhishan since the Nantiandongtian Secret Realm was cleared.

During this period, like Song Jia, she also captured the spirit disc—the golden-spotted swallowtail butterfly.

Since then, Yazhou's attractiveness to Lin Jing has been greatly reduced. Just when she was about to return to Jianye, such a piece of news came out, how could she not be excited.

Hearing this, Ouyang Shuo could only agree, who called her my aunt.

The built ship was named "Shangxue" by Lin Jing, and it was docked at the pier, unusually domineering.

The only one who is unhappy is probably Xie Siyun. This strong woman complained, complaining that Lin Jing was playing crazy, and she would not help Jianye.

Of course, Ouyang Shuo kept silent about the matter between them.

Yashan City has signed a supplementary agreement for the fleet or ships that go out to explore.

If you want to buy a merchant ship or warship, you must promise to share the geographical information collected during the exploration with the Yashan Fleet.

At the same time, Yashan City has the priority to occupy the major islands.

After Qiongzhou County was completely pacified, Ouyang Shuo stepped up the opening of Yashan City in due course. The entire Yashan City is open to all adventure players.

Upon receiving the news, players in the Chinese region were elated.

Immediately afterwards, the news of the sale of the warship completely exploded the enthusiasm of adventure players.

All of a sudden, Yashan City became a place where wind and cloud gathered. Major guilds and major organizations poured into Yashan City one after another. Just the share of the transmission fee has made Yashan City a lot of money.

It is foreseeable that the Yashan city in the future will be like a golden rooster laying golden eggs, which will create countless wealth.

The development of Qiongzhou County is just a microcosm of the development of the territory.

In addition to Qiongzhou County, the recently occupied Leizhou County also performed well.

With the support of the huge amount of funds from the Four Seas Bank, the reconstruction and expansion of Leizhou County has basically come to an end, and the rest is some super-large projects, such as the construction of several ports.

Leizhou County, which has recovered, will surely provide continuous assistance to the territory in the future.

The performance of Bao Shuya, the prefect of Leizhou, was also eye-catching. Under his leadership, the ecology of the entire Leizhou County has basically recovered, and the phenomenon of undercurrents no longer exists.

Especially after the establishment of the Southern Border Protectorate, the resistance within Leizhou County became weaker and weaker.

Previously, in the battle of Leizhou, Ouyang Shuo did not treat them badly in cooperation with the lords of Shanhai City.

According to the promise, the territory allows them to do business in Leizhou County.

Such a new business force, relying on its financial advantages and deep local connections, is gradually beginning to compete with Hequanji Chamber of Commerce and other major chambers of commerce.

And this is exactly what Ouyang Shuo wanted.

Ouyang Shuo maintained sufficient vigilance against Hequanji Chamber of Commerce, and even Cui's Chamber of Commerce.
