Chapter 648: Planning and Merit
This day is destined to be the darkest day for the natives on Qiumei Island, there are about more than 2,000 strong natives, or killed in battle, or blown up, or ......captured alive, and there are very few natives who escape, and for a long time after, Zhen Shi became the incarnation of the terrifying demons in the mouths of the natives, bringing wars, disasters and plagues to this land.
Most of the natives were reluctant to provoke such an existence, and they left the place where their ancestors lived, and for a while, not a single aboriginal could be seen within a hundred miles around the Zhenshi camp.
That terrifying mushroom cloud has become a haunting nightmare in the hearts of the natives!
All this made Zhen Shi depressed and wanted to beat people, the plan seemed to have deviated again, those natives who were captured alive, under the teaching of the people around them, understood the real "purpose" of Zhen Shiqiu's trip to the island, this is a not very harmonious misunderstanding between Zhen Shi and the aborigines, Zhen Shi appeared here with friendship and kindness.
In order to alleviate the hatred between each other, Zhen Shi is willing to have friendly exchanges with the natives on the island and communicate and trade with each other.
However, when these natives who had been captured alive were brought back, not only did they not receive any reply, but even the natives who delivered the news disappeared.
No one among the good natives wants to do business with demons, let alone have the slightest association with beings who spread terror.
But these Zhen Shi can only stare dryly and have no countermeasures, unless Zhen Shi wants to start another war with the natives at this time, but the problem is that the natives have fled into the depths of the forest, and such a war is not something that Zhen Shi can fight now.
Zhen Shi scratched his head, he was about to go crazy, "That's it, that's it!" Since the natives are unwilling to associate with us, there is no need for us to coax them with a dead face, and it is imperative that I go back to the Shengsi Islands and transport all the population of the Shengsi Islands here, and you will stay here and garrison! ”
Zhen Thirty-one looked aggrieved, and his heart was already happy: "This seems to be different from our original plan!" ”
"Isn't that the way to go?" Zhen Shi's face was about to turn into a bun, and he glared at Zhen Thirty-one fiercely and said, "You have to be obedient, didn't the master say that you should be stationed here?" If you want to go to Keelung Port, you will wait until I come back...... ”
"Hey, hey!"
Zhen Thirty-one stretched his waist, lay comfortably on a rattan chair, put his feet on the sand table without an image, and said with a smug expression of a villain: "Old ten, I didn't say you, sometimes fighting depends on character, when you are lucky, the gods can't stop you." ”
"Say it again, Lao Tzu will throw you into the sea!"
"Good, good! Let's not talk about it, can't we talk about serious things? Zhen Thirty-one knew that if he continued to talk about it, Zhen Shi would really throw himself into the sea, "Now we don't have a large number of indigenous people to supplement us, we really need to transport the population from Datang to Qiumei Island immediately, and wait until we have a firm foothold here, and then send a slave catching team to catch the natives, I agree with you to revise the original plan." ”
Zhen Shi had a smile on his face at this time, the final result of a war was indeed affected by too many factors, and it was not as simple as simply defeating the enemy.
Fortunately, when choosing the landing site, considering the needs of agricultural development, the nearby terrain is basically plain, and there are still more than ten miles away from the nearest hiding mountain forest of the aborigines, which is equivalent to a buffer zone with the aborigines.
Kumi Island is the largest island in the Ryukyu Islands, and it is impossible to occupy the entire island without 10,000 people.
"There is still a month to go, this plan to attack Qiumei Island is coming to an end, after I leave, you must immediately start building a castle here, and set up a number of forward posts within a radius of a hundred miles around the landing site, I don't care what means you use, after I return, there can not be a single indigenous enemy here, this is a military order!"
"No, it won't!" Zhen Thirty's face suddenly became bitter.
"Then why don't we two change it, and you go to the Shengsi Islands to pick up people?" Zhen Shi said unhappily.
Zhen Thirty-one's face changed again, "No need, I must complete the task", he didn't want to go to the Shengsi Islands to pick up people, the establishment of the landing base on Qiumei Island is a great achievement, and he will not give up easily.
Zhen Shi naturally knows Zhen Thirty-One's careful thoughts, but now is not the time to earn money with Zhen Thirty-One, his goal is the entire island of Taiwan.
Both of them have their own goals, Taiwan Island was originally the scope of Zhen Shi's development, last time Zhen Thirty-one robbed Zhen Ten of the credit, if it is repeated, the clay people have three points of anger, Zhen Thirty-one shows that the carriage and horses are on Qiumei Island, which can also reassure Zhen Shi, and the two sides are both tentative and mutually compromised in their words.
Zhen Thirty-one is like a mirror in his heart, the credit for the voyage to the Americas was robbed by Zhen Seventy-two, that is the real great merit, just for the voyage to the Americas, the best sailors of the Wufeng Islands, half of the resources are inclined to Zhen Seventy-two, and he also took away the two thousand-stone flyships with the best performance, and before he even set off, Zhen Qian rewarded a small island to Zhen Seventy-two, Zhen Thirty-one didn't dare to think about it, if Zhen Seventy-two successfully completed the mission and returned, how would Zhen Qian reward him.
The great credit was robbed by Zhen Seventy-two, and Zhen Thirty-one was a little unwilling.
Qiumei Island is the best display stage for Zhen 31, Qiumei Island is not as large as Taiwan Island, but it has incomparable advantages over Taiwan Island.
First of all, there are only about 30,000 or 40,000 natives on Qiumei Island, which is far less numerous than the aborigines of Taiwan Island, and it is easier to conquer and can quickly build towns. This expedition to Qiumei Island, not only 1,400 soldiers, but also nearly 1,000 craftsmen from all walks of life, and even dozens of tons of cement were transported, and it was enough to build the first castle.
Secondly, the geographical and climatic conditions of Qiumei Island are very good, Zhen Thirty-one has already planned and discussed with others in private, and found that there is no need to rush to conquer the entire Qiumei Island for the time being, there are dozens of small islands of all sizes around Qiumei Island, among which there is an island in the middle of Qiumei Island, the area is equivalent to the area of the north main island of the Wufeng Islands, and the area of the entire Qiumei Island alone is more than five times that of the Wufeng Islands.
Moreover, the climatic conditions of Qiumei Island are very suitable for agricultural planting, it is not hot in summer and cold in winter, and the water is abundant, and the rice can be harvested at least twice a year. Not only that, the west of Qiumei Island is the richest Jiangnan in Datang, and population, resources, and trade are all resources for the development of Qiumei Island.
Finally, the position of Qiumei Island in Zhen Qian's overseas plan, although Zhen Qian did not say much, but when the first island chain was often mentioned, Zhen Thirty-one found that Qiumei Island was in the middle of the first island chain, which was equivalent to telling Zhen Thirty-one that Qiumei Island would become a transit point for north-south trade in the future, and even if Zhen Shi wanted to pass through Taiwan Island, he had to temporarily rely on the support of Qiumei Island .......
