Chapter 274: Golden Mountain City

Through understanding, Ye Tong understood the difficulties of the Eastern Expedition against the Qin army. If you want to solve the problem in a short time, it is basically impossible, you can only produce the airship first, and then consider taking over a large amount of territory.

"Gui Ying, are there any other constraints besides the traffic problem?"

"Not yet!"

"Gui Ying, it's about to enter winter, are the soldiers' winter suits ready?"

"General, the winter suit has been distributed."

"By the way, why don't you see Zongbao?"

"That, that, general, Zongbao is on the front line and has not returned."

Ye Tong sighed with emotion, after several years of tempering, Mu Guiying's strength value has long reached the limit, and her intelligence has exceeded the full value, which can be regarded as a real female tyrannosaurus.

At this time, Mu Guiying, in terms of force value, is basically not much different from Xiang Yu at the beginning, and they are all cattle people who have surpassed the limit.

I haven't seen Zongbao, I don't know the specific situation, there should be an improvement, and the speed is much slower than Mu Guiying's. After all, Mu Guiying is a famous general recognized by the system, but Yang Zongbao does not agree, a bit like Jiang Song's situation.

"Chen Ping, Peng Yue, where are they, what's the situation?"

When he was in Chang'an, Ye Tong received information that it was not going well.

"General, I went to see it at the end of last month, and the situation in Chen Ping is worse than here, mainly because of the climate, coupled with transportation difficulties, and the progress is slower."

Alas!

Ye Tong sighed, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It seems! Large airships are not a hundred ships that can solve the problem, at least two hundred are needed to solve the problem. ”

Hee-hee!

"General, if there are really two hundred super airships, the progress of the Eastern Crusade will definitely be accelerated."

It is obviously unrealistic to ask the cabinet to increase military spending, and it can only be to let Dingjunshan pay for it. The main thing about airships is that they are expensive, and they are not something that ordinary people can afford. Especially the super airship, the cost is really sky-high, there are no millions, and it can't be taken at all.

"Gui Ying, after entering the east next year, we will also build a city on the plain, so that the logistics will be reliable. When the time comes, you have to choose well, not too far, not too close, after all, it is really not easy to build a city. ”

"General, this matter has been discussed by the Fourth Corps, and it is indeed necessary to build a city. Replenishment is one thing, and there is also rest, and when the troops are resting, there is a good place. Moreover, with the advance of the army, there are not one or two cities that need to be built, it is estimated that there will be several, otherwise it is really impossible to take this eastern continent. ”

Ye Tong nodded in agreement.

It was a very stupid thing to build a city during the war, but in fact, the Qin army had no choice. Without the construction of cities, the problem of logistical support cannot be solved.

"Gui Ying, when you took over the Zebra area, did you meet the Europeans?"

European?

"No! It's all indigenous. ”

Oh!

"No white-skinned people found?"

"Nope! Only dark-skinned natives. ”

It seems that the Europeans have not yet discovered the Eastern Continent, and once the Europeans do, they will definitely flock to it. Of course, the Europeans will only attack the southern part of the continent in the first place, after all, there are a lot of indigenous people there, and there are a lot of mineral resources.

Mayan civilization?

What kind of civilization is it?

It is basically impossible to calculate the solar calendar thousands of years in advance without the existence of goldfingers. Or rather, there really was an ancient civilization.

This planet is really not simple.

"General, our geological exploration expert, found oil in this person's place, and has already started to extract oil. The equipment and workers sent by Dingjun Mountain are already in place, and they can be exploited on a large scale by the Chinese New Year at the latest, as long as the oil is smelted, on the one hand, it can meet the needs of the Qin army, and on the other hand, it can support the needs of the empire. ”

Ye Tong saw where Mu Guiying pointed his finger, nodded, and signaled that he understood. That place, in another time and space, was originally an oil town, with huge reserves.

"Oil extraction has just begun, and when we get there, more oil resources will be explored." I saw the direction of Ye Tong's finger, it was the southern region!

"General, next year the army will take over that area."

Extracting and refining oil is not only as simple as obtaining gasoline and diesel, but also obtaining by-products, which can be used to build roads.

A large number of roads were built, and it was impossible to use cement, only the by-products of oil. It's not a matter of savings, it's a matter of cost.

The next day, Ye Tong and Yu Ji went to Golden Mountain City to hang out at will, take a look at the development of all walks of life, and understand the industrial layout.

On the whole, the development is good, whether it is construction, building materials, cement, mineral excavation, smelting, etc., all are super enterprises, the scale is very large, not the kind of small role.

Of course, the price is definitely more expensive than in China, after all, it is not produced here for the time being, and many products are transported from China by sea ships.

Yu Ji said: "General, look, that's the Imperial Development Bank?" ”

Ye Tong looked up, it was indeed a high-rise building of more than ten floors, which was the tallest building in Golden Mountain City. I didn't expect that the Imperial Development Bank would have such a vision and be able to keep up with the pace of Qin Jun.

Although the Imperial Development Bank belongs to Dingjunshan's industry, Ye Tong doesn't know anyone. Since its construction, Ye Tong has not bothered and let it develop.

"Yu Ji, did you find it? The people who come to Golden Mountain City are basically people who have jobs, and there is no idle person. ”

It's true, to this kind of place where doesn't give birth to maggots, if it weren't for the needs of work, no one would really come. After all, this is just a newly built city, a city that came into being in conjunction with the Qin army's conquest.

Of course, once the Qin army's conquest was over, it would immediately become a paradise. At this point, Ye Tong believes that the development of the Eastern Continent is even faster than that of the Southern Continent.

The Qin army and the cabinet also intended to let the people settle down, live, and work in the Eastern Continent. Therefore, relatively speaking, the city was built relatively large.

There is no doubt about the environment, the environment of the empire is absolutely first-class, whether it is domestic, or South Asia City, West Asia City, the environment is very good.

"General, the climate here, in fact, is not much different from that in China."

Hehe!

One for the Eastern Hemisphere, one for the Western Hemisphere, certainly not too big.

The internal guard came over and reported: "General, General Lin Xiao is here?" ”

Oh!

"Then go back! I haven't seen that kid in years, so I don't know what's going on. ”

Lin Xiao, the first batch of systematically produced characters after Ye Tong arrived in the Qin Empire, can be regarded as a veteran. The Army, which was supposed to do a good job, had to go to the Navy to develop.

At first, Ye Tong was still a little worried, but after several surface battles, Lin Xiao gradually transformed. He has a very high purpose in surface warfare, and is the first person among the system production personnel to be promoted to the rank of corps commander.

You must know that Lin Xiao is not a famous general, but a random production by the system. Lin Xiao is not like Mulan, Mu Guiying and others, he is recognized by the system as a famous general.

It can even be said that Lin Xiao has never even heard of the name. It is such a person, who has been slowly promoted from a small soldier, and finally promoted to the level of corps commander, which has to be emotional.

Returning to Mu Guiying's headquarters, as soon as Lin Xiao saw Ye Tong, he immediately saluted: "Report to Your Excellency General, Lin Xiao is here to report!" ”

Ye Tong returned a military salute and said with a smile: "You kid haven't seen you for a few years, but you're getting stronger and stronger." After finishing speaking, he punched Lin Xiao twice in the chest with his fist.

"General, lightly, the last general can't withstand your heavy punch."

Since Lin Xiao took the helm of the East China Sea Fleet, he has taken over our islands in the sea in an all-round way. It took several years to take over the work, not because Lin Xiao didn't work hard, but because there were too many islands, and it was not something that could be done in a day or two.

"Lin Xiao, where is your fleet?"

"General, after the fleet has taken over our islands in the sea, it continues to advance eastward. Due to the impassability of the waterway, it began to detour from the southern part of the Eastern Continent and made a large circle before sailing to the east of the Eastern Continent.

General, the sea conditions in the east are not very good, the waves are high and the wind is strong. Yu Zhong easily wiped out a few pirates on the sea. At this time, the fleet was building a dock to the east. ”

"Lin Xiao, pay attention, some time ago, the empire sold some armored ships to Niu Niu, maybe you will meet Niu Niu on the sea."

"General, don't worry! The armored ships sold to Niu Niu are all obsolete goods. The East China Sea Fleet has two 17,800-ton battleships and nearly 50 steel cruisers, frigates, and heavy cruisers of several thousand tons.

In addition to the frigates, the caliber of the guns of the rest of the battleships has increased considerably. In particular, two battleships, 9 210-mm guns, were extremely formidable in combat. ”

Ye Tong nodded, and did not sell those old goods to the outside world, there was money there to arm the navy and let the navy change its equipment. Selling an old ship can be replaced with five new ships. This is also the reason why the new warships are all made of pure steel, and the cost has risen.

"Have you been in contact with the natives of the continent to the south?"

"General, we just replenished some fresh water, and we didn't really touch it. However, the productivity there is very low, and the products are all in their original state. I'm curious about what the Empire produces, and if I send the Empire's products to that continent to sell, I should be able to sell them for a good price. ”

"Is there a large population on that continent?"

"Many! There are many natives who don't wear clothes, but just put a piece of animal skin around their waists and paint their faces in a mess. We didn't understand the language, we didn't communicate much, we just took out a little bit of ceramic products to trade, and the other party traded all semi-finished gold. That dog's head gold, at first glance, is in its most primitive state, and it should have been picked up. ”

Hehe!

"Lin Xiao, there are a lot of resources on that continent, especially rubber, coffee, minerals, etc., which are the main products. It's just that there is no technology, so it is considered an underdeveloped area. ”

"General, don't you see anything like rubber?"

"Your fleet is only temporarily docked, and the rubber is in it? How can you see it, besides, even if you see it, you know? ”

"In that case, General, let's take over there!"

Alas!

"It's not easy! It was a very populous place, all of which were indigenous. You can't solve the problem with knives and guns, you have to take your time. The first thing to do is to gain the trust of the other party before you can mine. ”

The southern continent, to put it simply, is an uncivilized virgin land with too many resources. It's just that the technology is backward and there is no way to progress. If you really have advanced technology, you will develop quickly.
