One of the reasons why Zhang San wanted to take the Praetorian Guards to Borneo was because Zhang San had never been to Borneo since it began to be included in the scope of clearance, and Luzon had not been there for nearly a year.

This operation was also an inspection of Luzon and Borneo, one was to see how everyone was doing, and the second was to let the people there know who was ruling them, so that after a long time, the people there only knew that there was a county order but did not know that there was an emperor.

Another reason is that the Praetorian Guard, as the first unit to change its equipment, has now completed its training, and it is natural that it will conduct a real battle after the training is completed, one is to test the results of the training, and the other is to verify the correctness of the new weapons and tactics.

After all, everyone in command of the firearms unit is a novice, in order to prevent accidents, the generals under him made mistakes in handling, so Zhang San decided to go and see it himself, in fact, Zhang San was bored with staying in the Ryukyus, dealing with official documents and inspecting construction every day, which was not interesting.

This time, the fleet departed from Tamsui, arrived in Tainan, and then sailed directly from Tainan to the port of Luzon, where it would stop for three days to replenish supplies, and for three days Zhang San was to make a brief inspection of Luzon.

This time, the Janissaries dispatched a total of 10,000 army forces and 10 10,000 gunboats to exchange for the defense of Borneo, and the two regiments returned to Ryukyu for reorganization, and the fleet had nothing to do all the way.

From north to south, Zhang San successively established six provincial-level units in Sakhalin Province, Beihai Province, Zhenwei Province, Ryukyu Province, Luzon Province, and Borneo Province.

Although he does not develop the Americas on a large scale, but encounters gold, silver, copper or valuable minerals, Zhang San does not mind developing them, these bases are the pioneers in the development of the Americas, in the spirit of first come, first served, Zhang San intends to include the Americas into his own territory.

There are also places such as Luzon and Borneo, these are just the beginning of the development of Southeast Asia, there are at least tens of thousands of islands large and small in Southeast Asia, and Zhang San certainly hopes to occupy them all, so Zhang San here should also be included in the territory.

How can you let go of Oceania being so big, and the vast Siberia will be a treasure land of feng shui in the future, since it has been decided to open up trade routes and establish a stronghold from there, it is natural to draw all those places into the map.

It's just that these places are too large, and Zhang San decided to set up a larger administrative unit on the basis of the province, and Zhang San decided to name these places according to the names of ancient Kyushu.

South America is named Yangzhou, North America is named Xuzhou, Oceania is Jiaozhou, Siberia and Central Asia are divided into three, the east is divided into Youzhou, the middle and Central Asia are named Bingzhou, West Siberia and Europe are Liangzhou, West Asia and Africa are Yizhou, and Southeast Asia is named Jingzhou.

The Japanese kingdom of Goryeo, Sakhalin Island, and the vast islands in the Pacific Ocean, including Hawaii, are all Qingzhou. At least these places sound like ours, but this has little to do with Borneo this time.

The reason for studying the nautical charts is that Zhang San intends to completely eliminate all the forces existing in Borneo this time, because after last year's clearance, it was found that the local savages actually had a group in order to escape being captured as slaves.

The idea of forming two larger tribal alliances in the western part of Borneo to prepare for the Ryukyu Raids was extremely stupid, and these people would pay for their stupidity, and Zhang San planned to concentrate his forces to break them up first, and then capture them slowly.

Studying the nautical chart is to see how to block the coast to prevent them from escaping to other areas, after all, when there is no wind and waves here, they dare to go to the sea with a log, so if the interception is not effective, it may attract unnecessary enemies to Zhang San.

Now that the Malacca region is turbulent, and the Sriwijaya and Chola kingdoms are fighting fiercely, if the two sides know that there is a powerful enemy in the east, they will cease fighting to defend the Ryukyus.

After all, the weapons that appeared this time were epoch-making, and it is estimated that the battle process was also a crushing victory, and Zhang San did not want these news to reach Srivijaya and Chola, so the maritime defense of this clearance was very important.

The focus of the defense was on the northwest, southwest and southeast directions, and all three places had a chain of islands, basically forty or fifty miles away, from which the indigenous people of Borneo could reach the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra and Java by canoe.

The Borneo fleet now has 30 warships plus 10 Praetorian Guards, which is enough to complete the blockade during the day, but he is afraid that the enemy will escape by taking advantage of the night, so Zhang San plans to send ships to patrol at night, and in the early stage, launch a landing front to occupy coastal ports and destroy the opponent's ships.

When the fleet arrived in Luzon, the main officials on the island came to greet him, and the governor of Luzon was Zhu Wu, a figure known as the Shenji Military Division, Zhang San did not find any outstanding military talent in him, but his brain was quite enough, and he was also a first-class governance talent, so he now served as the governor of Luzon.

The port of Luzon was originally an important port in Southeast Asia, and many Han Chinese used to do business here and established several small states, but under the threat of the Ryukyu army, they soon surrendered, so the port of Luzon was peacefully incorporated into Ryukyu rule.

Luzon Bay has a vast water area and is a natural harbor, and after Zhang San obtained it, he has always attached great importance to the construction here, not only sending planners to plan the construction here, but also setting it as one of the first ports to be opened.

This time, I saw that there were indeed a lot of ships coming and going in Luzon, and the stone plank road built at the wharf was also a large area large enough for dozens of ships to moorth.

Although the construction of warships was returned to the Ryukyus, the Luzon Shipyard still undertook the construction of large military transport ships and logistics transport ships, as well as special transport ships.

At the beginning, the Luzon shipyard built Donghai type warships, so the technical strength is still there, and more importantly, there are a lot of high-quality wood here, and hundreds of years or thousands of years of trees abound, which can be used for shipbuilding.

Since the decision to build large transport ships in the Ryukyus last year, various shipyards have begun to expand their docks, and the shipyards on Ryukyu Island have been assigned to Luzon because they are responsible for the construction of new warships.

During the war with the Great Song Dynasty, Ryukyu grabbed a large number of shipbuilders from the coast of the Great Song Dynasty, and Zhang San not only expanded the three major shipyards in the Ryukyus, but also tilted part of his manpower to Luzon, so the current Luzon shipyard is already the fourth largest shipyard in the Ryukyus.

When Zhang San arrived at the shipyard, he saw a row of twelve 1,000-ton merchant ships under intense construction, these ships should be laying keels at the same time, the fast masts have all been installed and the deck is being laid, and the slow ones are still installing the masts.

Farther away, there are twelve merchant ships of 10,000 stones, which are ordering ship boards, these merchant ships are not much different from the Ryukyus, Zhang San came here this time mainly to see the progress of those special transport ships.
