The rout of the enemy's navy caused a chain reaction, and when the tide turned, the Semu and natives on the shore began to retreat in a hurry, losing their supplies all the way.

Wang Xuan didn't let the army in the rear go ashore to pursue, and only asked them to enter Shenlong Island and settle down temporarily.

Liu Liu and Wang Zhi were already waiting on the shore, and after they got ashore, they entered a simple courtyard, and the internal scenery was chic, thinking that it should be from Wang Zhi's handwriting.

Wang Zhi is old, Liu Liu is more mature, this is how Wang Xuan felt when he saw the two, time is really a pig-killing knife, specializing in all kinds of dissatisfaction.

After entering the hospital, Wang Xuan was not in a hurry to speak, and looked at the flowers and plants, which was a bit like what he imagined, but after looking closely, he felt that it was a little less interesting, so he gave up and asked about the changes between the two during this time.

Wang Zhi made a long story short, including the empty city plan that happened during this period, the mutual aid agreement with the peasants, the friendly relations with the Shui Mu tribe, and the current situation.

Although it is not very detailed, as an observer, Wang Xuan is very aware of the hidden dangers, and any wrong step may fall into a desperate situation. At this point, everyone is still calm and calm, and Wang Xuan is very proud to be able to make objective judgments.

"What about the casualties?" Wang Xuan asked again.

Wang Zhidao: "There is no phenomenon of starvation to death, and after the rationing system of food, it can barely satisfy one's stomach." The biggest casualties were among the soldiers, with more than half of the more than 1,000 army units lost, and nearly 100 great white sharks and vipers also suffered casualties. ”

The special combat team suffered more than 100 casualties, and the price was too high.

Within half a year of Wang Xuan's departure, the military recruited a batch of special combat personnel for training, but less than 30 of them passed the final assessment, and according to this ratio, the manpower trained in a year and a half would be exhausted in dozens of days, and the training could not keep up with the loss.

"What about the technicians, how are they?"

Wang Xuan was worried that the technicians would have psychological problems and would do some extreme things to affect their morale and morale.

"Fortunately, only a few people are sick, and there is no damage outside the lack of medical treatment, there is a political commissar surnamed Qian, who is very experienced, and will do their ideological work when he has time, and the effect is not bad, at least so far there have been no evil incidents. ”

This is already very good, and it is nothing more than Wang Xuan to stay in charge by himself.

"This time the supplies are very sufficient, everyone will rest for a few days, and after recuperating their bodies, they will move back to Shenlong Island. This time we won't leave, this is our second home. ”

Seeing that His Majesty the King said yes, the two knew that they would have something to do in the future, and their spirits immediately returned, and they all waited for the next step with wide eyes.

Wang Xuan didn't make a detour, and said directly: "This time, I brought 10,000 troops over, plus nearly thirty warships, and it is absolutely no problem to protect myself." There are also a lot of materials, heavy equipment, tools and measuring tools for building factories, so that the shelves of the industrial zone can be set up first, and after the resumption of production of key factories, there is no need to rely on the supply from the north for everything, and self-sufficiency can develop rapidly. ”

Wang Zhi was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "This is a big deal, the farmer, wood and water tribes have helped us a lot, we can seek their help, and the efficiency should be improved a lot." ”

Liu Liu also said: "We have trained a team for the peasants, and they are stationed nearby, and those who assist us in defense can directly pull over to build infrastructure and take the route of engineering troops." ”

Wang Xuan was greatly moved after hearing this, a fence with three piles, a hero with three gangs, it's good to have allies, isn't what Jixiang lacks at the moment is people, what else can't be done with people?

"The old rule is that the technician plans first, and then unfolds it after the plan is formed, and we have to race against time.

The businessmen who went back came with us this time, and we must control the situation as soon as possible and give them confidence, otherwise it will be difficult for us once the news reaches back to China. ”

His Majesty's words made the two nervous, and when it came to the national fortunes, who would dare to be sloppy?

"Don't worry too much, you can do the construction, and I will be in charge of the war, and I guess there will be no such opportunity in the future." ”

But isn't it, how can the king of a country keep the civil and military generals at home and go out to lead the troops to fight by himself.

It was a last resort before, but I didn't expect the effect to be so good, and he achieved his reputation for martial arts.

The same is true of the current situation, the Star Continent is the foundation of auspiciousness, and Wang Yu and other generals must stay behind to defend, which gives him another opportunity.

Although Liu Liu is also a military general, after all, he has not experienced modern warfare where artillery is king, and he still needs to be trained, and the battle of the Southern Continent is a good opportunity, so Wang Xuan plans to take him and let him learn and learn.

After the calm here, where will there be a war that Jixiang will have to go into battle in person, at that time, Jixiang is also a big family, and he has no possibility of leading the army to fight alone in reason, public and private.

Wang Zhi wanted to persuade His Majesty the King, but thinking of His Majesty's proud achievements in the past, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and only told him to take good precautions and not to be careless or anything like that.

Seeing Liu Liu's intentions, Wang Xuan said: "You just follow me, and you can lead the army alone after this is over." ”

"Yes. ”

Hey, with a simple 'yes' word, Wang Xuan understands that Liu Liu is still Liu Liu when he was whipped at the beginning.

The brother-in-law and brother-in-law have become such a relationship, and Wang Xuan doesn't know if it's normal.

The three of them chatted for nearly an hour, when Yu Bazhi came with supplies.

He was promoted this time, became a division commander, and managed the 10,000 army in Xishan, but he envied Zhang Peiyu, the one-eyed dragon, and cursed him behind his back to fall into a pit while walking, and a boat into the water.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, Yu Bo carried a military backpack on his back, and a few military kettles in his hands, and after saying hello to Wang Xuan, he picked it up.

"This is canned pork, just produced in February, with chili peppers, and it tastes great. ”

Wang Zhi and Liu Liu didn't know about chili peppers and MSG, so they only used Yu Bo to lure them, after all, they hadn't eaten meat for a long time.

"This is canned vegetables, and fruits, peaches taste the best, and stevia is added to them, and I brought some of them this time, and you are in good luck." ”

Yu Bo took out a number of cans from his backpack one after another, took one and explained another, and after a while, these foods were all on the table, and because they were all in glass bottles, they were unobstructed, and Liu Liu even swallowed his saliva.

"They've all arrived?"

Wang Xuan said "they" refers to the soldiers and technicians here, three or four thousand people, the daily consumption is a lot, and it is not possible to transport less.

"Yes, your majesty, are you still not at ease. ”

The aftermath of the cold appearance in front of the people, but in front of Wang Xuan, he was so lively, and he spoke more casually, everyone knew that they had guarded the Dongshan Pass together and survived the most difficult years of auspiciousness, and the relationship was not ordinary, and it was not strange.

His two fingers, which were cut off at that time, have affected his normal life.

Fortunately, he doesn't need to charge into battle, and he can adapt to it when he gets used to it.

"That's good, everything has been arranged on Shenlong Island?" Wang Xuan asked about Shenlong Island again.

"The twelve warships that were withdrawn in advance were arranged to be parked at the military port for renovation, and the body of Political Commissar Hu Yu was placed in an ice coffin for His Majesty to dispose of. The troops have taken over the defense, and the rest are either resting in the barracks or tidying up the streets and houses. A group of goods are being unloaded and transported to the warehouse one after another, and other people who have come have their own arrangements. Although the scene was a little messy, there was nothing wrong, and Commissar Fan was staring at it. Yu Bo said as he unwrapped the can.

Wang Xuan nodded, and he was relieved to have a political commissar staring at him.

At this time, Wang Zhi said: "I will arrange some people to assist you in the past, after all, they are more familiar than you, and it will be more efficient to sort them out." ”

Yu Bo stopped what he was doing and said with a smile: "Then thank you Commissar Wang." After that, he turned to the guard and said: "Arrange for people to dock, the original objects can not be destroyed, and you must listen to people's opinions." ”

"Yes. After the white-faced guards who were about the same age as Wang Xuan saluted everyone, they turned around and went out to make arrangements.

Liu Liu secretly admired Yu Bo's training methods, looking at the spirit of the guard just now, that capable appearance, without dragging his movements, no wonder people will stand out and become the biggest dark horse in the army, his soldiers can't do this, it seems that he has a lot to learn.

Just when Liu Liu was secretly comparing, Wang Xuan suddenly remembered something and asked Yu Bo: "The doctor and the medicine are divided, they all have to do an examination, and long-term malnutrition will cause accidents." Also, the corpses on the sea must be disposed of as soon as possible, once the plague is formed, I am afraid that none of us will be able to return alive. ”

Yu Bo thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "The medicine has been brought, I thought that what was lacking here was only medicine, so the doctor didn't bring it, and let them stay on the island to recuperate." ”

Wang Xuan turned his head to look at Wang Zhi, Wang Zhi nodded, so Wang Xuan also nodded to Yu Bo.

Yu Bo continued: "The battlefield is being cleaned, but the defenders here are limited, and it may be difficult to complete it in a short time, so I will send another thousand people to support." ”

Without waiting for Wang Xuan to reply, Liu Liu answered, "It is not easy for the army to clean up the battlefield at sea, let's do it with the navy, use the trawl back and forth a few times, drag it to the shore and then the army will take over, it will be faster." ”

Yu Bo thought about it, then nodded in agreement, so he went out and made another arrangement, and when he came back, Liu Liu and Wang Zhi had already gobbled it up, dealing with the cans on the table with the resources of the wind and clouds.

After seeing this, Yu Bo quipped: "What I just said, this can is very different from the past, eat it slowly, and what's more, you can eat it until you want to vomit." ”

Liu Liu raised his head and wondered: "Aren't these all controlled military supplies, and you can still eat them as much as you want?"

Wang Xuan smiled, the aftermath wilted.

I'm afraid that the equipment of the canning factory has already entered the warehouse, and after the factory is built, can't you eat as much as you want?

"Don't listen to him, there is no one to keep the door open, we brought the equipment for the construction of the canning factory this time, and it is not difficult to make canned food. ”

After Wang Xuan said this, and then looked at the aftermath, he was stealing fun on the side, and his expression was even a little obscene.

Although Liu Liu and Yu Bo are systematic, they don't know his temperament, but Wang Zhi knows a little, and after tapping him with chopsticks, he shook his head and continued his gluttonous feast.

Not long after dinner, Chai Rong came.

After these days of mutual understanding, learning and integration between the two races, he did not know that the young 'merchant' was the auspicious King Majesty.

When they met, they performed an auspicious courtesy, "I have met His Majesty the King." ”

Wang Xuan exchanged a few polite words with him, and then got to the point.

It turned out that Chai Rong wanted to send a group of clansmen to live in auspicious life, and he could understand this request.

Although the auspicious army is coming to help now, they have lived a miserable life in the past few months, and people have died every day, and ordinary people can't resist this kind of torment.

When it comes, auspiciousness is different, and the daily face is no longer death and hunger, at least away from war, there is hope.

So Wang Xuan replied: "I agree to your request, but it will be a month later." Now we are planning to build a foreign Chinese language school to teach auspicious and local dialects, and you can bring the people who are going to come here to learn for a while. ”

Chai Rong was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Your Majesty, I'll prepare when I go back." ”

Next, the two talked about how to develop in the southern continent in the general direction, and Wang Xuan mentioned the biggest problem in development, labor.

Hearing the strings, Chai Rong said: "We still have a lot of young people, and now we are worried about finding something for them to do. Since you have a need, it just solves my urgent need, just eat every day......"

"We have all the food, clothing, housing and transportation covered. Wang Xuan's words made Chai Rong let go of all his worries and arched his hand at Wang Xuan again.

"Rest assured, auspiciousness will not treat allies badly, let alone his own people. ”

Wang Xuan's words have a deep meaning, although Chai Rong is young, it does not mean that his IQ is also young, he understands this sentence.

Chai Rong has considered Jixiang's thoughts, but it's just too early, Jixiang needs to show stronger strength, otherwise he can't convince his clansmen, and some people have secretly called him a 'family thief'.

So Chai Rong said: "Yes, only when the house is cleaned up can we create better living conditions." ”

This is to tell Jixiang that if you want the farmers to join, you must first show your strength and show off your family background, and you have to make them willing.

Wang Xuan also understood, and said confidently: "This matter is not in a hurry, wait for me to clean the courtyard here first, so that you can open your eyes." ”
