Section 7 The City of Gold and Stone (Unbanned Chapter)

Under the efforts of the Qing army and Fuso prisoners, the residence of Tsushima Island, Jinshi Castle, has been completely renovated and has completely become a small arms industry city.

By the way, I would like to mention the fate of Shimojong Yoshiki, who was killed by the artillery fire of the Shenzhou Army outside Seoul, and his family was handed over to the "Salvation Army" to deal with.

Not only did there be a sawmill, but there was also a large arms industry, including the production of guns, gunpowder, shells, etc., and most of the workers were technicians from Shenzhou City, leading the captured Fuso people to work in four shifts.

After the equipment has been installed and commissioned, it has begun to use the parts brought from the Shenzhou Army to assemble and equip the "foreign trade repeating muskets" of the Salvation Army and other armies, and the magazine-type repeating muskets used by the "Shenzhou Army" and its allied forces, as well as various grenades, gunpowder, artillery shells and other ammunition completely produced on the spot.

Even though it was four shifts, it could not supply the "Salvation Army" and the "Allied Army" in Korea, which were constantly expanding. North Korean merchants in Busan, on the other side of Tsushima Island, have hired a few technicians at high prices to teach them how to produce cartridges for repeating muskets, "improved flowering shells," and other military equipment.

At the same time, a military port was built on the north and south sides of the island for destroyer formations to dock, and slipways were also being built in the dockyards, and at the same time, the existing naval turtle ships of the DPRK were renovated to lay the foundation for the establishment of a regular navy in the DPRK.

What makes all the people and businesses most dissatisfied is that this place is still the same as the construction of Shenzhou City back then, and there is a lack of people. Although the people of the "Catholic Cult" of Fuso have been working very hard every day, the shortage of manpower is still a problem. Some bosses even mobilized their young men to marry a North Korean girl on the other side of the river, after all, they would be able to work in the workshop immediately!

The arms industry is different from other industries, and a considerable number of classified parts are more difficult to use those Fuso prisoners, so thousands of Qing prisoners have become sought-after treasures. The market for hiring these captives from the city lords has soared, which shows how hot the construction is here.

In particular, the good news of the imminent war is still stimulating the nerves of the merchants in Shenzhou City. Taking advantage of the Minjiang-class transport ships that immediately transported materials back to Shenzhou City this time, all of them asked to come again, bringing back a large number of skilled workers who were urgently needed here, it seems that this route is only afraid that this time this route will be lively.

The military department, including Murong Zhuo, did not quite understand why Yue Xiaofei wanted to build a military base on a small island like Tsushima Island. Not only is the terrain rugged, but it can hinder the development of commerce. Speaking of which, I don't see any value other than being a communication channel between North Korea and Japan.

In contrast, the soon-to-leased island of Jeju may be more suitable for the act of establishing a city, and why this is why, when another war breaks out in the vicinity, they will understand.

At present, the situation of Tsushima Island as a whole is roughly as follows: the munitions industry system centered on the city of Jinshi Castle in the central part of Tsushima Island is taking shape, and the construction of a road with a three-way earth road is being built, and parallel to it, the "double-track road," a prototype of a railway made of concrete tracks, which will connect the military port by the sea.

The more secluded places in the mountains are the camp of the "Salvation Army" and the "concentration camp" of the inhabitants of the "God Cult" of Hanyi, and the new military camp of the Korean Allied Army, near the North Military Port near the Gorge Bend on the north side of the island. The two battalions of the "foreign mercenaries" were stationed in the vicinity of Jinshicheng and the Korean Allied forces, while the military headquarters of the Shenzhou Army and the attached engineer battalion were near the southern military port.

These military bases were rapidly constructed by a large number of Fuso workers led by the engineer battalion, describing the bunker clusters dominated by crossfire and the positions built on the nearby hills with prefabricated wooden boxes of sand.

The "happy times" really went by very quickly. Soon the time came to February 2, 1648 in the Shenzhou calendar, for Yue Xiaofei and them, today is another happy day, go into the mountains and forests to really hunt, naturally this time Li Mei will not be thrown down by them because of his clothes, from that time on, when he goes out, he will bring a few more sets of clothes.

When Yue Xiaofei and the others returned to the military base, there was already a gloom in the clear sky, and the vehicles in the camp were already lit up with sporadic lights, and it was obviously time for dinner.

A few golden-browned, "shiny" grouse with an enticing aroma were served, and the chef served them to the table in thin slices. The rest of the large amount of game was divided by the army kitchen and became the "additional dish" tonight.

Facing the delicious food on the table, everyone seemed a little excited after a day of relaxation. There were many laughs and laughter, and this dinner was extremely lively.

In the midst of the excitement, suddenly the battalion commander of the communication battalion came to Yue Xiaofei's side and said a few words with a serious expression.

"Well, I know, you go!" Yue Xiaofei nodded lightly.

"Brother Zhuo, that's coming, how is your meat grinder prepared?"

"What's that? Oh, you mean......" Murong Zhuo's chin raised towards the other side of the strait.

"Yes, according to the news from the military intelligence over there, they plan to carry out a night attack on us, and they may split up their forces." Yue Xiaofei nodded in response.

When Li Hao heard this, he chuckled in his heart, in addition to the almost fully trained forbidden army in his Korean battalion, there were thousands of recruits. Although they were also training, they did not have so many muskets, and only had some training in queues, assassinations, bomb throwing, etc., to put it bluntly, almost no different from ordinary peasants.

He couldn't sit still, and when Yue Xiaofei and Murong Zhuo's conversation paused slightly, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Brother Yue, I have to go back, you know the ...... of those recruits."

"Well, I know you care about your group of recruits, but according to me, if you don't hurry back first, I'm afraid that if the enemy army lands at night, the number will not be too many, so don't worry, you can stay with your little sister in our military headquarters tonight." As for your boot camp, don't worry I'll arrange for someone to go. ”

Saying that, Yue Xiaofei said to Wen Changming: "It seems that the other party has not left us much time, inform the troops to eat quickly, prepare for battle immediately after eating, and the civilians should immediately withdraw to Jinshi City in time to avoid being hurt in the night attack, and those ninjas don't need to stay anymore, take them all." ”

Wen Changming responded and went to convey the order first, if Yue Xiaofei had front and rear eyes and knew the past and the future, he was afraid that his order should be "all destroyed" instead of "all taken".
