Chapter 407 Jidao Ji Village
Obviously, the news of the navy's initial victory greatly encouraged Qu Mao, not to mention the first-hand intelligence of the navy's initial victory, so Qu Mao began to plan while waiting for other heroes to rush to Dicheng to hold a response meeting.
Since winning the battle against the second batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance, Qu Mao has been waiting for the arrival of the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance. Now that it has finally arrived, the next thing is to deal with the battle.
The navy set up an ambush last night, and within a few hours, they actually fought against the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance. They also won a small victory, confirming that Jidao Island is the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance. It is also clear that the third invasion fleet of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance wants to fight a land battle with the territory of Yi Village.
Since it is a land battle, Qu Mao naturally wants to build Ji Island and at the same time engage in a land battle with the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance on Ji Island.
Excited Qu Mao immediately called Xuande, Kong Ming, Su Li and others who had arrived, and started planning.
Without waiting for everyone to ask, Qu Mao asked directly: "Xuande, I remember I told you a long time ago that we should prepare for the development of Jidao in advance, that is, on March 1st five new army heroes will lead troops to Jidao. When exploring the island, I arranged with you."
Xuande sat up a little bit straighter and said: "My lord, this subordinate has been preparing carefully in advance.
The northernmost landing point of the Army Expeditionary Team on Ji Island. The Navy built five temporary piers there in the early days, and it has been transformed into three zero-level civilian piers.
Near the Jidao civilian pier, the subordinates have built two defensive towers and some simple zero-level territorial dwellings.
Now, my lord, you want to base yourself on Ji Island and engage in a protracted land battle with the third batch of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance's invasion fleet. After the meeting today, your subordinates will arrange workers to go to Ji Island and build three civilian docks at the northernmost end of Ji Island. , Immediately build Beigang Village.
At least first build the Beigang Village Internal Affairs Office, material warehouses, granaries, and medical rooms, and at least expand the zero-level territorial houses to at least 50. Five-story buildings have to be built even if they have money. After all, adults commanding operations must have a command post and a place to stay. "
Qu Mao nodded and said: "Xuande, I am very pleased that you have such preparations.
Now that it has been confirmed that the enemy is the third batch of invasion fleet of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance, and we are willing to accompany them in a protracted land battle on Ji Island, then my idea is very simple, to develop Ji Island while fighting , The third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance provides us with so many people and so many warships that can be exchanged for gold coins. Under such good conditions, can't our Jidao development speed be increased?
According to the results of the navy's interrogation of prisoners of war, the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance plans to gather 200,000 soldiers to fight against us on Jidao. There are 85,000, and their strength alone is equivalent to 2.5 times our total population. "
Xuande glanced at Kong Ming, almost drooling and said: "Master, with so many people, are they all staying in Jidao? Then the subordinates have to think about what kind of villages to build to accommodate the population.
Unfortunately, there is no rough map of Jidao yet. "
Kong Ming said: "Xuande, your idea is too beautiful.
With a combat force of 200,000, we can capture about 120,000. Even if our army and navy are very restrained, the maximum number of prisoners is 170,000. If one is not killed, how can we recruit other fighters?
Regardless of our upper limit of command value, Jidao must keep 50% at most, outlying islands must have at least 30%, Yidao may need 19%, Sky Island must have the entire 1%..."
Qu Mao rolled his eyes at Kong Ming and Xuande, and asked Zhao Pan who had just rushed over: "Zhao Pan, are the 1,000 troops you have assembled ready?"
Zhao Pan said: "My lord, I have already reported to you that 600 people from Yidao Naval Port and 400 people from Lidao Shipyard are on standby at any time."
Qu Mao nodded, and said: "Let me talk about my own thoughts, Kong Ming, Su Li, oh, Su Yan is also here, you all have to cooperate with Xuande to develop Jidao."
Speaking of this, Qu Mao took out a map from his backpack and unfolded it in front of everyone. This is a brief map of Jidao drawn by the army's expedition team before returning last time. He stretched out his finger and circled it in the center of the map. In a circle, Qu Mao said: "This map is still very rough, but it doesn't affect us to see the whole picture of Ji Island clearly.
In the middle of the map, which is the location of my finger circle, I want to build a village with a city wall, called Ji Village, and the side length of the city wall should be about 2 kilometers. In the future, the entire battle against the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance will center on Ji Village.
Beigang Village, which Xuande has prepared in advance, will be built as soon as possible. The city wall may not be necessary, but defensive measures must be in place.
After the meeting in Dicheng today, I will go to Ji Island in person, and Su Yan will make preparations in advance for the construction of Ji Village, Beigang Village and the army’s combat readiness materials.
My plan is as follows: 1,000 soldiers from the army will quickly land on Jidao, leaving 400 army soldiers to defend Beigang Village and Jidao civilian pier, and the remaining 600 soldiers will follow Xuande to advance to the construction site of Jidao and defend the residents from building Jidao.
Xuande, you take 1,500 residents from the second invasion fleet of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance to Ji Island to build Ji Village, and complete the construction of the city wall as quickly as possible. "
Xuande asked in astonishment: "My lord, the residents obtained from the second batch of invasion fleet of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance? You want to test their loyalty?"
Qu Mao shook his head and said: "No, Su Yan, you contact Su Qiaoer, the 20 seagoing ships returning from Yancheng Port do not need to berth at Yidao Civil Wharf, but go directly to Jidao Civil Wharf, and the 6,000 ships brought back from Yancheng Port The citizens directly declared in Jidao that they became freemen, as the original residents of Jidao.
The second wave of 20 ships returning from Yancheng Port, the same operation.
Including two waves of production tools, daily necessities and production tools purchased from Yancheng Port, all of them were developed in Jidao.
12,000 of our high-quality freedmen, mixed with 1,500 prisoners of war converted to freedmen, the total starting population is 13,500. I think the starting point for the development of Jidao is already very high. "
Su Yan said: "Yes, my lord, after the meeting, my subordinate will go to Jidao with you to meet the returning residents of Yancheng Port."
Qu Mao continued: "Xuande, ask Li Xiang of the road construction team to prepare 500 road construction personnel to land on the island. Ji Island is a plain terrain, and the stone road from Beigang Village to Ji Village should be repaired as soon as possible. Work is being completed one after another, and the road construction team has enough manpower."
Xuande said: "Yes, my lord. With your support, my subordinates still want to build an emergency village in the east of Jidao. After all, from this map, the eastern sea area is also eligible for landing."
"Yes!" Qu Mao said.
