Chapter 676: The Current Situation of Great Xia

It's not so much a city as a large, sizable port market.

Over time, many traders built houses and settled in the port market, and over time, it reached the size of a small town.

Before he officially stepped into this port market, the clamor from inside had already penetrated Xia Qi's ears.

After walking in, the first feeling he had was excitement.

Nearly seventy percent of the stalls in this port market are from Bactria and the rest are Persian traders.

In this market, it is not uncommon to see Persians haggling with stall owners in a broken Chinese dialect.

The Persian Empire, now nominally governed by the identity of Nir, did not officially submit to him Bactria but this did not prevent Neil from promoting the goodness of Bactria .

Especially after the united front of the Chinese camp and the foreign camp, Xia Qi did not have to hide, directly established a sea trade route, and successively supported a lot of materials to the Persian territory, and let Neil announce that the two of them became each other's closest allies.

Xia Qi's generosity made the Persian people basically not resist him much, and even in the current Persian Empire, the Persian flag is hung side by side with the flag of Great Xia.

And this series of moves is to prepare for the easy takeover of an entire Persian territory in the future, which is an important layout.

Every year, the Bactrian sea-fringer would sail from the ports of the East China Sea loaded with goods, and then sail along the way while doing business, passing through the four important ports of Nanhai Port, Persian Port, Shenluo Port, and Siam Port, as well as other ports large and small, and then return to the port of East China Sea after this lap.

This is the annual maritime trade route of the Bactrian maritime merchants.

Of course, when there is war, Xia Qi will issue a ban on the sea, and when the time comes, all merchant ships in that area of the sea must dock at the nearest port.

And the ban on the sea on this side of the West Sea, he has already issued it, and now the merchant ships that should be docked have docked.

However, in a short period of time, this ban on the sea will not have much impact on the merchants, after all, they are carrying a shipload of goods, even if they sell quickly, it will take a month or two to buy a shipload of goods.

After that, they had to go to Persia to buy new goods, and they themselves had to stay there for quite some time.

If, during this period, the merchants have completed all their work, but the ban on the sea has not been lifted for a long time, then according to the character of the merchants, they will directly change their trade routes.

Some of them were left here to watch the ships, while they were to take the caravan away for land trade.

After all, out of the territory of Persia, to the north is the territory of the orcs, and over there, all kinds of goods are also quite popular.

This information was all heard by Xia Qi from a few merchants at the next table when he was drinking tea in a tea shop in the market, and they were discussing this matter.

"Young Master, it's almost time." After confirming the time, Yuan Ye leaned over and said softly.

"Okay, let's go."

With Yuan Ye and a few other guards, Xia Qi left the tea shop and returned to the port area.

Now this port has been blocked, and the port area is filled with warships of the West Sea Fleet.

After the airship took off, the warships of the West Sea Fleet also officially set sail under the order of Bao Han.

On the warship, the flag of Europa fluttered in the wind, and this time, they were going to work hard in the name of Europa.

At the same time, after the battle on the plain, the army of the cherry blossom side can be said to be unable to stop Wang Meng anymore.

Commanding his army, Wang Meng conquered the city all the way, and with the fall of the last city, the curtain fell on this war that lasted for several years.

This continent is temporarily controlled by Wang Meng himself, and as for the talents in charge of governance, the rear of Daxia has long been ready, and ships by ship will be sent to this continent.

In the past few years, as long as it is a really powerful talent, there is absolutely no need to worry about not having a chance to get ahead, after all, there are too many places that Daxia needs to employ people now.

And those who don't have the strength will soon be exposed, and then roll up and get out.

Now, if you open the system map, you will find that the territory of Great Xia looks very exaggerated.

Before this all-out war began, the territory of Great Xia was not much inferior to that of modern China.

Now, after unifying an entire continent, he has occupied two continents in the 12th Sea, as well as the Sakura Islands to the east.

Compared to the central continent, the two continents on the twelfth sea area are actually much smaller, which depends on the number of players.

You must know that Xia Qi's central continent is spliced together by the territories of seven players successively!

The two continents on Sea Twelfth are made up of the territories of two Europa players, and the other is made up of the territories of two Sakura players and one Aztec player.

In fact, all of them are not as big as his central continent, but that is also relatively speaking.

Coupled with the Cherry Blossom Islands in the east, all the territorial areas added together, Xia Qi roughly estimated in his heart that his current territorial area may have reached about four times that of modern China!

Of course, the population is not that large.

After all, the war had just ended, especially on the continent of Europa, when the armies of the three foreign players burned and looted in various cities, and everywhere they went, the population of that city was basically not one out of ten.

In addition, because of the scarcity of materials, there was a famine for a long time, and a large number of people starved to death.

This has come and gone, counting all the populations of these cities occupied by him, and the total population of Xia Qi's Great Xia is only more than 500 million.

However, this is already very unimaginable for ordinary players who can only maintain an average population of tens of millions under normal development.

At the same time, Xia Qi also realized a problem, if he continued to expand on such a large scale, then the management manpower would probably not be enough.

After all, the Sakura people, the Aztec people, and the Europa people who had just come over were obviously not able to be used directly.

So far, the output of talents mainly depends on Daxia, according to this situation, he may have to develop steadily for the last five or six years.

Xia Qi, who realized this, fell into a short period of contemplation.

Fortunately, in the area near him, there is only one Franc player left among the other players, and after he captures the archipelago territory of the Franc Player, he will be able to complete the unification of this area.

When the time comes, how can he develop steadily for a few years.

Subsequently, Xia Qi sent a telegram to Zhang Liang and them.

Over the years, the people of the Imperial District have cultivated initial loyalty.

Now a preliminary estimate shows that the current loyalty of the people in the Imperial District should have generally reached more than seventy points.

Therefore, it is also possible to try to recruit some talents in the Imperial District to work in institutions such as the town hall.

A complete town hall, in addition to the important duties above, will definitely need a large number of staff below, and the talents recruited from the Imperial District, so let's put them in this area for the time being to see the situation.

After confirming the instructions, Zhang Liang and the others naturally acted quickly.

Time passed quietly.

In this battlefield of all-out war, players from all sides are making their own strategic arrangements according to their own layouts.

During this period, under the reconnaissance of the aerial reconnaissance airship, Xia Qi's West Sea Fleet also quickly approached the territory of the archipelago of the Franc player.

At the beginning, in the twelfth sea area, after being wiped out by the fleet and fish-man troops led by Spartacus, the Franc machine player who was greatly injured directly withdrew to his territorial waters, and at the same time strengthened the patrol of the waters around his territory, intending to develop steadily for a few years and recover

Some vitality.

In the past few years, he has recovered quite well.

But it would undoubtedly be a dream for such a large naval fleet to be reconstituted in just a few years.

Unless he can be like the top bosses in the same rank, he has a super rich background, and directly smashes it with money and resources, and smashes out a fleet.

But the problem is that after so many years of fighting, Franc machine players have long been unable to bear it.

And today, the arrival of the Western Sea Fleet is a complete nightmare for him.

This time in the west, Xia Qi, the fish-man force, only transferred a small part over, after all, in his opinion, the situation over there was still the twelfth sea area more important.

William Mousse's repeated actions of sending reconnaissance teams over made Xia Qi 120,000 points of vigilance.

In comparison, on the side of the Franc machine players, after the war in the early years, Xia Qi probably had a number in his heart about the situation of the Franc machine players, and simply put, there was nothing to be afraid of.

Although when he captured the two continents in the twelfth sea area, he gave the other party a period of stable development, but compared with the heyday, the current naval combat power of the Franc machine player may not even be one-fifth of the previous one, and the Western Sea Fleet is too easy to defeat him.

Not to mention, he also brought a small troop of fishmen over just in case.

The ship's guns began to roar, and the fish-man troops under the sea launched an attack at the same time, and the patrol fleet deployed by the Franc machine players on the periphery of the sea area could only obediently die.

Years of development have long made Daxia snowball into a behemoth.

It can be said that with his current strength, as long as Xia Qi himself steadily does not collapse, in this comprehensive battlefield, no one can really say that he can be taken care of.

William Mousse is one of those who are a threat to him, but the other party can't get ashore.

The West Sea Fleet attacked sharply, and the attack efficiency was superb, and after destroying the patrol fleet, it went all the way to the port city of the Franc player.

The blitzkrieg-like style of play allowed them to capture the port city in a short period of time.

By the time the Franc player received the news, the port city had already fallen for several days, and he was so angry that he couldn't bear it.

After that, he also hurriedly gathered his army and the remaining sea forces in his own country to meet the attack.

However, even if the remaining sea forces of the Franc machine players were put together, they would only have three battleships and twenty or thirty small and medium-sized warships, which was not worth mentioning in front of Xia Qi's Western Sea Fleet in this all-out war battlefield.

Years of conquest, has long made the new star of the navy grow into a mature admiral, in the face of the Franc fleet that is obviously weaker than them, there is no trace of relaxation, every step of the instructions, calmly make the opposite Franc fleet feel desperate.

I can't catch any flaws at all, and I can only be killed by the other party little by little in the process of maneuvering again and again!

After that, the battlefield quickly shifted from the sea to the land.

The Franc player is obviously a player who focuses on naval battles, and his land combat strength is very average, which makes the subsequent battles completely undifficult.

In less than three months, a small island in the other party's territory fell into Xia Qi's hands.

So far, the entire battle situation has been within Xia Qi's expectations.

If it was in the heyday, the Franc machine player could still pose some threats to him, and now, the opponent is almost out of even one-fifth of the strength in the heyday, and this battle doesn't even need any strategy, it only needs to be crushed by hard power.

The front line was fighting too fast, which made the situation a little awkward, because the officials in charge of governing the city of Franc were still on the way.

Although when he came, Xia Qi also asked the airship to directly bring a batch over just in case, but now there are still not enough people, and even Xia Qi himself has already rolled up his sleeves and gone into battle in person.

But on that island, the governance of the three Franc machine cities still made him

We were busy in the dark.

And after that group of officials arrived here, Xia Qi, who left a large amount of supplies, was also ready to withdraw.

Because of the next battle, it doesn't make much sense for him to continue to stay here, as a player who relied on army troops to fight the world in the early years, Xia Qi doesn't think that the army troops of the Franc machine players can match the army of Great Xia.

As long as Bao can maintain maritime supremacy in this sea area, there is absolutely no possibility for Franc players to turn the tables.

In this way, after telling all the things that should be told, Xia Qi left two goblin airships and four reconnaissance airships here, and he officially embarked on the return journey on the monarch airship.

Although this trip is a long way, it is quite smooth, thinking about the development plan after Daxia, it should be able to be stable for several years.
