Chapter 107: Enclosure Movement

Swan's cavalry and Flood flotilla, like two arrowheads, meandered eastward along the southern coastline of the United States, treading almost all of the coastline except for areas that were too unsuitable for human traffic. Instead of making large-scale arrests, Swann made a surprise raid and took a few men to the fleet to be kept in custody.

Hong Tao not only wanted to sketch the lines of the North American coastline, but also wanted to roughly figure out how the Indian tribes living here were distributed. These Indian captives were the source of information, and the missionaries would communicate with them in various Indian languages, and through them, they would learn the local Indian language, and by the way, they would fool them into joining the Heliosian Cult. When they come back later, these captives are the leading party.

It was still summer when he left Sun City, and it was already the spring of the following year when he arrived at Fort Mia, and Swann had already been dazzled, and it was good to see everywhere, if it weren't for Hong Tao's repeated promises that Texas was the most suitable place for him, he would probably be like a bear breaking a stick, taking a step to change territory. Chief Powhatan was not too flustered about the sudden appearance of this cavalry, he had become familiar with these people who did not look very different from himself in the past two years, and it was not surprising that Karl had worked tirelessly to transport people here like ants moving, black, yellow, white, and all kinds of people.

Indiana Jones is holding a big belly at this time, and Carl's new heir should be born in two months, Hong Tao must not let go of the opportunity to name the child, even if he can't give it a regular name, he can give it a nickname. So the son whom Carl had not yet met had the nickname of Cherokee, and if it was a daughter, it would be called Apache. It doesn't matter if it's twins, the Indians' nicknames don't have too strong gender attributes, and the two names can be used interchangeably. These two names are indeed very suitable for Carl's Indian descendants, they were originally the names of the most brave and warlike Indian tribes on the North American road.

Further north from Fort Mia, the road became more and more difficult, with more and more cliffs and straits, and many times Swan took the team around a large circle to advance a little distance. Hong Tao had to load Swan and his cavalry into ships, sail along the coastline for some distance, find a place close to the coast, send them ashore in small boats, explore a circle, and then re-embark and continue on their way. After sailing like this for more than two months, there was finally no road ahead, and there was a vast sea on three sides.

Prince Edward Island! This is the name that Hong Tao wrote on the map on this land. It must have reached the easternmost point of what would become Canada, and it was not impossible to go further east, but Swan's cavalry was enough, the weather was too cold, and the land was full of meadows, tundra, and coniferous forests. Hong Tao didn't plan to let Swan take this tired cavalry of less than 100 people to play with nature, these people left their hometown for more than a year, and after trekking tens of thousands of kilometers, it was really not easy to maintain a certain combat effectiveness.

It's time to go back, for more than a year, I don't know what will become of Cité Soleil, Saba City, and Tula City. As for the inland areas of the North American continent, let the people assigned to that territory explore it slowly, and don't deprive others of the fun. With this data in hand, the terrain of the southern part of the North American continent has been basically mapped, and it is time for me to start fulfilling the promise I made to my followers.

"This Mississippi country belongs to your Uncle Luo, aren't you two on good terms, then continue to get together and mingle. Further east, it is called the Carolina country, and it is reserved for the sea and the great river, so that they can be next to the country of Cal. Your Uncle Carl and Governor McCay will fight when they meet, and their son is probably no better, don't be idle, and continue to pinch them. ......" ended the exploration work, and on the way back, Hong Tao began to engage in enclosure on the map of North America, drawing a country for them with a pen according to everyone's different preferences and needs.

From the Mississippi River east to the west coast of the Florida Peninsula, he named it Mississippi, which belonged to Roude; Further east to the seaside, excluding the Florida peninsula, it was called Carolina, which was later the sum of North and South Carolina, and was divided among the two black sons of Martini.

These three places basically occupied the southern part of the United States below the 35th parallel, leaving a Florida Peninsula Hongtao to be handed over to Charity and the Kindness Brothers, which can be regarded as a fief for the Ciqi family. Cixi's fiefdom Hong Tao also thought about it, so he went to Cuba Island, where there was no need for shipbuilding and industrial development, and Cixi was not good at this, but it was more appropriate to be the king and hegemon on the island.

Above the 35th parallel, Hong Tao drew another 42nd parallel, and from the 35th parallel to the 42nd parallel, Hong Tao drew several more areas. To the easternmost point was the Kingdom of Pennsylvania, which later consisted of the states of Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland. There are dense cold forests, a good harbor with a leeward and deep fjord, and it is also located on the east coast of the North American continent, very close to Europe, which is a good place for shipbuilding and a naval base, which is just right for Wen Xiaoqi.

Next to the Kingdom of Pennsylvania was Carl's Kingdom of Virginia, and further west, it included what would become western West Virginia, southern Michigan, and most of Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky, which was renamed the Kingdom of Ohio. Coal is here, and it is not far from the iron and copper mining areas of Lake Superior, which can be transported by water in the Great Lakes region and handed over to Qizu as a heavy industrial base for development. Anyway, he doesn't like ships and the sea, so he can toss heavy industry and mechanical processing industry inland.

The rest of the central and western regions of the United States are a bit of a rough natural condition and cannot be developed at present, so let's keep it for now. In the future, if anyone comes to join him, everyone will get some men and horses and weapons for him, and go into the fight by himself, as long as there is a logistics base, it will be relatively easy.

Joseph's group, Hong Tao hasn't figured out how to arrange it, so he has to go back and ask him what he means. The center of the Cult of God has been determined, which is the pyramid of the island in the middle of the lake, and since he is the high priest of the Cult, I am afraid that he cannot leave easily. Unless he is willing to give up this position to become a little king, it is not known how Joseph will choose in the end.

Bush is not a man who wants to be a king, but Hong Tao can't just go down the slope and not give people territory, and the states of Chihuahua and Solano in northern Mexico, New Mexico, Arizona, and western Texas in the western United States all belong to Bush, and they are called the Kingdom of New Mexica. Don't look at the size of this area, but it's really not a good place, except for the Gobi desert. But this broken place is very useful for the chemical industry after Bush, and there are broken places everywhere, so you don't have to worry about pollution, explosions, and so on. Factories and warehouses are relatively safe, and it is difficult to spy on them.

New Mexico, Texas, Mississippi, Carolina, California, Cuba, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio, plus their own Mexica, exactly ten countries. This number is quite auspicious, and everyone's national border has basically reached horizontal and vertical, it looks so regular, Hong Tao is very satisfied.

However, these ten countries can be called like countries at the moment, and they are barely their own Mexica. Carl's Virginia was still a settlement, and the town was not even a town. Swan's Texas is not even a settlement, and it is a small village at best. The other eight places were even worse, not even a single king and his subjects, and it was 100% on paper.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have been going around with Swan for more than a year, and finally we have found out everyone's land, let's take a look at this map, there are names written on it, if you don't have any opinions, let's give this matter today!" Back in Tula City, Hong Tao immediately called his followers to the top of the unfinished pyramid, sat on the ground one by one and sat in a circle, spread the picture in the middle, and a world's most awesome spoils distribution conference began. It is not gold, silver, jewelry, tea and silk, but land, tens of millions of square kilometers of land!
