Chapter 1054: San Francisco (II)

When did the Imperial Army in the San Francisco area begin to join the Indian tribes in the Plains War?

It seems that when Zhao Hongyu left, San Francisco was still a barren land, and Wang Shan had just started construction of San Francisco.

Wang Shan, who was sitting on a war horse, was in a stirring mood.

Looking back on his time in San Francisco for most of the past six months, he felt as if he was in a dream.

In late spring, Wang followed Zhao Hongyu to San Francisco, which was a completely undeveloped and barren land when they set foot on the beach.

It can be said that it is very primitive and quaint, and there are no outsiders except the Indians.

Wang Shan was appointed governor of San Francisco, and after Zhao Hongyu left with the fleet, he began to plan and build San Francisco.

After all, Zhao Hongyu handed over all the things here in San Francisco to Wang Shan, so Wang Shan, as the leader, of course has to plan, design and develop San Francisco according to his own ideas.

This is an opportunity for him, an opportunity to prove his ability in front of Zhao Hongyu.

You must know that among the earliest people who followed Zhao Hongyu, he was the first to follow Zhao Hongyu's side. Song Hu and Zhang Tie are still behind him, so if you want to talk about proximity, he Wang Shan can be said to be an absolute close confidant of Zhao Hongyu.

But now, Zhang Tie and Song Hu, one is the governor of Manhattan and the other is the governor of Ontario City, they have both become the administrators of a region, managing the power of these hundreds of thousands of people.

Therefore, Wang Shan also felt some pressure.

If he didn't work harder, maybe he would be better than Zhang Tie and Song Hu.

Although he was by Zhao Hongyu's side at the beginning, he was in charge of the Imperial Guard as a guard, and his status and identity were not ordinary.

But he still felt that he should prove himself, and he could be the same as Zhang Tie and Song Hu. Manage a district well.

San Francisco is a place for him to prove his ability.

After becoming the governor as he wished, Wang Shan can be said to have devoted himself to the construction with full enthusiasm, and the little wife in the family was a little neglected by him.

Fortunately, the little wife who had been raised by the aristocracy had no complaints about Wang Shan's slight neglect, and she also supported him very much.

Otherwise, even if Wang Shan can persevere, it will add a lot of trouble.

At that time, San Francisco was nothing, just a wasteland.

Therefore. Wang Shan can be regarded as building a city in a place where there is nothing.

This is not without difficulty.

There is nothing difficult about Zhang Tie's Manhattan development, after all, Zhao Hongyu was the first person to develop Manhattan.

When Zhang Tie sat in the position of governor of Manhattan, Manhattan's urban construction and some infrastructure construction had basically begun to take shape.

Therefore, Zhang Tie's development of Manhattan is very easy.

If you really talk about it, it will only be when Song Hu develops Ontario, and its difficulty level can be comparable to that of Wang Shan.

Both of them are the same, to be in a place where there is nothing. To build a city from the ground with high-rise buildings.

However, Wang Shan felt that although it was a little difficult in the early stage, it could still be done after all.

After all, isn't Ontario's Song Hu all successful?

Since Song Hu can do it in Ontario City. Then he can do the same here in San Francisco.

As the first self to follow Zhao Hongyu, Wang Shan felt that he couldn't embarrass Zhao Hongyu, and at the same time he had to fight for himself. At the same time, I also want to prove that I am also a capable person.

Development of San Francisco. Although it is only a short half a year.

However, under Wang Shan's planning, it has slowly developed.

The outline of the city, but also the infrastructure of the city. It's basically starting to take shape.

And in the periphery of the city that has been planned, a large number of fertile fields have been reclaimed, although it is only half a year, but in this half a year, Wang Shan has used all the manpower, has reclaimed more than 500,000 acres of fertile land.

This is only in the past six months, if it comes to the spring of next year, Wang Shan is ready to continue to reclaim one million acres of fertile land.

By then, San Francisco will have 1.5 million acres of fertile land here, and it will basically be self-sufficient.

At the same time, these fertile fields can also be used to settle those immigrants of the Ming Dynasty, so that they have land to cultivate.

It can be said that everything is going on step by step as Wang Shan envisioned.

However, after the onset of winter, things suddenly became a threat.

That is, after the winter, the large Indian tribes that were in full swing on the Great Plains seemed to have stopped invariably.

And they began to constantly send troops to the areas controlled by the Empire, harassing them on a small scale.

This has brought a lot of trouble to the construction and development of the San Francisco area.

At the same time, as the harassment grew, so did the ranks of Indians entering the Empire's controlled areas, and their methods became more and more ferocious, and they began to attack patrols and newly established villages.

Obviously, the large Indian tribes that are fighting in the plains after the onset of winter need to start replenishing themselves with some 'fresh blood' and plundering some supplies at this time.

After a whole year of war, none of the great tribes continued to hunt, so they must have been very short of food.

In such a situation, if they want to have their food full, then they must plunder.

In the end, the news that Wang Shan found also proved his inference.

The five great tribes of the Prairie Tribes who fought the war were exhausted after a year of war.

For the sake of war, they have stopped production in their tribes, so they will inevitably fall into crisis after the onset of winter.

In the midst of this cold and harsh winter, these five tribes have now had to face an already very grim reality after a year of war.

That is, there are not many food and supplies in the tribe to resist the cold for the winter, because they have not taken care of this matter for a whole year, and now that winter has come, they cannot afford not to think about this problem.

As soon as winter arrives. Some of the newborn children of these five tribes died one after another from cold and hunger.

So, they now have to face this problem.

For these Indian tribes, babies represent the future of the tribe.

If too many babies and children die, it's not a good thing for the tribe as a whole.

But, after all, they had wasted a whole year.

So, what can they do now?

Although the problem is very serious, it does not seem to be impossible to solve.

During the Great Plains Super Tribal War, many small and medium-sized tribes were annexed or migrated. And most of them have migrated to the west near the coastline.

Because to the east is a barren desert. You can only find a place to live by walking towards the sea.

What's more, the battlefield on this side of the Great Plains is very vast, and if they are not careful, they will be attacked by the five major tribes and end up with the destruction of one tribe.

Therefore, many tribes went to the seaside and avoided the battlefield of the five major tribes.

After the winter, the five major tribes finally thought of these small and medium-sized tribes that avoided them at a critical moment.

Aren't you short of food!

Isn't there a great shortage of supplies to protect the tribe from the cold?

No problem, just find those tribes. They were plundered of their food, their clothing and their tents.

As for whether these tribes will be in any danger this winter after taking away their food, clothing and tents, it is not something they can consider.

This is the truth that the so-called dead friends do not die and the poor do not die, although the Indians would not say so. But they did it.

It was for this reason that these tribal warriors of the Great Plains began to frequently invade and harass the areas controlled by the Empire after the onset of winter.

In the beginning, the warriors sent by these tribes. Not all of them poured in. Rather, it is a small-scale test of the situation and at the same time judging the combat effectiveness of the enemy they are going to face.

In the early days, they did not encounter Imperial soldiers and patrols. Even some of the villages and towns destroyed were those of the vassal Indians.

Therefore, almost all of the five tribes believe that their enemies are simply vulnerable.

At this point, after a period of probing, they began to invade on a large scale.

It was also after its large-scale invasion that Wang Shan finally reacted here.

The five tribes did not attack at the same time, after all, these five tribes were still hostile.

Therefore, the time for these five tribes to invade the area controlled by the empire was not the same, which gave Wang Shan a chance to defeat each one.

The city of San Francisco was under the control of the empire at that time, and it was still under construction.

The walls of the entire city have only just been built, and they are not high at all.

So, there is absolutely no way to conduct a defensive war.

And some of the houses in the city are also under construction, but some frameworks have just been built.

If you want to live in it, you have to wait at least until next year.

However, the streets of the city have already been made first, and the straight streets are already crisscrossing the city under construction.

On the outskirts of the city are the dense yurts of the imperial army.

And those Indian tribes that became vassals of the empire also lived in such yurts.

At that time, Wang Shan received the news that several small Indian villages had been destroyed in order to alleviate the congestion here in the early stage and reached Wang Shan's side, and Wang Shan felt that something was not quite right.

After some investigation, I got the exact news.

After the tribes that had joined the truce in the plains began to attack with their troops, Wang Shan knew that there would be no peace here in San Francisco.

At least, not until the enemy is defeated. (To be continued......)
