The World Game Online - Chapter 230

[Chapter 230]

On September 15th of the first year of Gaia, the First Battalion of the North Sea Fleet arrived at Lake Sila.

(Eight (One Middle [[〔文[ [ ]]})

Tianfeng County, the county government meeting hall.

Ouyang Shuo called together the main officials and generals of Tianfeng County, and publicly appointed Zhao Dewang as the county magistrate of Tianfeng County, and appointed Director, Director of Finance and Director of Material Reserves.

The First Battalion of the North Sea Fleet was separated from the North Sea Fleet and renamed the Xila Lake Navy Battalion, which was placed under the jurisdiction of Tianfeng County. The original first battalion was Zhoufeng, and was renamed the Xila Lake Water Division

According to Pu Zhidao, director of Tianfeng County Administration, there are water villages in Xila Lake, and there are water bandits.

Therefore, the first task of the Xila Lake Navy Battalion is to eliminate water bandits in Xila Lake

.

The waters of La Lake are vast, and water bandits are local snakes. It is not an easy task to exterminate them.

After Zhao Dewang took office, the important task before him was the construction of a small military port and shipyard in Xila Lake. In addition , there is a more difficult task, that is to build the official road between Tianfeng County and Shanhai County. The name of the official road is Ouyang Shuo, and it is called Tianhai Road

. So far, it is the most expensive and time-consuming infrastructure construction. In order to speed up the construction progress, Shanhai County and Tianfeng County will start the project at the same time, go hand in hand, and then close in the middle to connect them into one.

The construction of Tianhai Road, Most of the time in the wilderness, the construction environment is harsh, not only to prevent wild animals, but also to guard against the attacks of rogues. Therefore, the army must be arranged to guard all the way.

The bandit suppression target of the Tianfeng County City Defense Battalion will give priority to the Tianhai Road.

The construction of Tianhai Road is of strategic significance. As long as post stations are built along Tianhai Road and the flag of Shanhai County is planted, the deterrence and dominance of Shanhai County over the western part of the Lianzhou Basin will definitely be enhanced.

Tianfeng County, Yongye Town, and Guangshui Town form an iron triangle, and they are strung together by Tianhai Road, which is enough to control the situation in the western region. Even if any territory invites foreign aid, it is not enough to pose a threat to Shanhai County .

Shanhai County has enough reaction time to mobilize the army, organize defense or wipe out the enemy.

After occupying the three most important player territories in the west, Ouyang Shuo will adopt a gentle policy towards the remaining player territories.

The specific policy will have to be formulated after Ouyang Shuo returns to Shanhai County.

After Ouyang Shuo explained to Zhao Dewang alone, he set off for Shanhai County that afternoon.

On the way, he also took the personal guard battalion to inspect Yongye Town and Guangshui Town.

Yongye Town and other four second-level towns,

Shanhai County have all sent people to take over, appointed chief officials, reformed the administrative structure, established a city defense camp, and opened a series of policies such as the establishment of the Four Seas Bank branch.

Yongye Town is backed by Yongye Forest and is positioned as a forestry town.

Guangshui Town and Yishui Town are adjacent to the riverside, which is convenient for reclaiming fertile farmland, and is positioned as an agricultural town.

Gushan Town is backed by a mountain, and Ouyang Shuo plans to make it the second mountain man settlement.

On the afternoon of September 18th, Ouyang Shuo and his party returned to Shanhai County.

The first thing Ouyang Shuo did when he came back was to rush to the market to check the grain prices.

In the market, the price of grain has been rising all the way, and each unit of grain has risen to 2o copper coins, directly doubling.

As food prices continued to rise, the lord players could no longer calm down, and they used the working capital of their territories to buy food.

The far-sighted lord even began to sell basic resources such as timber and iron ore to extract funds and increase grain purchases to ensure the territory’s grain reserves before November.

The rush to buy food has further boosted the rise in food prices.

Today, food is priced at one price per day.

The main force for selling grain is the chambers of commerce in the major systems of the royal city. The grain in their hands is also purchased from farmers on the outskirts of the royal city, and it is not an unlimited supply.

There are tens of millions of players settled in each system royal city, and their existence is also a huge pressure on the food supply of the royal city.

The merchants of the Chamber of Commerce are all human beings.

Seeing the rise in food prices in the market, some large chambers of commerce even began to hoard food in reverse, preparing to make a fortune.

Therefore, the turmoil caused by food has intensified, and all kinds of ghosts and snakes have participated in it.

In the storm, Shanhai County was also affected.

The major branches of the Four Seas Bank located in the allies’ territory frequently ran out of emergency, the loan amount increased exponentially, and the treasury was about to bottom out.

Ouyang Shuo made a decisive decision and allocated all the 8500 gold coins earned in the first half of September to the major branches.

Mulan Town, Black Lion Town, and Tianshuang Town each increased their reserves by 1500 gold coins, and Xunlong County and Luofeng County each increased their reserve funds by 2000 gold coins.

Unfortunately, this amount of funds is just a drop in the bucket for the territory.

The lords had to take the risk and began to ask the rogues for money just like Shanhai County.

The thing is, Rogue is limited.

Like Shanhai County, basically after each territory is promoted, it will be wiped out once, which is a one-time benefit.

During the time when Ouyang Shuo was away, the Chengdong camp had already completed the mission of suppressing bandits that had to be interrupted due to the enemy attack, and seized 4200 gold coins.

The bandits on the east and west routes, plus the clearing of the player territory near the border, captured a total of 15,200 people, all of which were assigned to Shanhai County.

During this period, six consecutive professional players were sent to Shanhai County to settle down.

[Luoyuehui] has reached the upper limit of 1000 members, but unfortunately [Luoyuehui] is still a while away from being promoted.

In addition, Mr. Sun and the others continued to contact scientists and invited them to settle down in Shanhai County.

Today, the team of scientists has grown to 45 and continues to grow.

The obsolete equipment that Ouyang Shuo entrusted to Shangxue Meigui’s mercenary group to dump has been sold out. Using this fund, the mercenary group began to set up Shanhai county offices in the major king cities for Shanhai County.

After the office starts to operate, Shanhai County will usher in another small population peak.

The first brigade of the first division had been rebuilt. The soldiers of the third, fourth, and fifth battalions were directly replenished from the prisoners of the regular army. The soldiers of the first and second battalions were still replenished by elite soldiers from the mountain tribe.

The two large-scale conscriptions one after another almost exhausted the war potential of these mountain tribes.

According to the plan, Shanhai County’s promised action to wipe out the bandits in the cottage has been delayed for more than half a month.

In order to obtain the understanding and support of the Shanman tribes, Tian Wenjing, Director of the Interior, had to increase food aid to the Shanman tribes again.

After Ouyang Shuo came back, he immediately launched a military operation to wipe out the bandits’ cottage, codenamed “Lynx”.

Because it was fighting in the mountains and jungles, in addition to the Guards Battalion and the Shenji Battalion, eight battalions from the 1st and 3rd Brigades except the Cavalry Battalion participated in the “Lynx” operation.

Leng Qian, deputy director of the Military Intelligence Department, led a team of military intelligence to work intensively and found detailed information about the bandits’ cottage. The situation was even more serious than expected.

The bandits’ cottage is located in Eshiling, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The population of the cottage has reached more than 14,000, and there are more than 8,000 combat bandits, including many elite bandits.

The only trail up the mountain has been set up by bandits with three checkpoints. It is really difficult to attack all the way up.

“Is there no second way up the mountain?” Ouyang Shuo was not reconciled.

Lengqian shook his head and said: “There is a cliff behind the mountain village. The cliff is extremely steep with jagged rocks. It is almost impossible to attack from behind. Unless…”

“Unless what?”

“About a kilometer away from the cliff , and there is another mountain peak, which is easy to climb up. But how to cross this thousand-meter obstacle is a big problem. Even with a zipline, there is no way to fix the rope to the other side of the cliff.” Leng Qian obviously No hope.

Ouyang Shuo’s heart moved, a flash of lightning flashed into his mind, and he blurted out: “I have a way to solve the problem of fixing the rope.” Ouyang Shuo thought of Binger’s pet Xue’er, even though Xue’er is pocket-sized, she is the top artificial Intelligent, although it is only an ornamental pet after entering the game, it is extremely powerful and can fly. It is really suitable for Xueer to complete this task.

“Ah?” Although he knew that Junhou would not lie, Leng Qian was still a little surprised.

Ouyang Shuo waved his hand and said, “The Military Intelligence Department will carefully investigate the mountain opposite and find a safe way to go up the mountain. The army will leave tomorrow

.

”

Ge Hongliang asked him to urge the Combat Readiness Department to prepare ziplines, fuel and other materials to ensure the smooth execution of the “Lynx” operation.

At the same time, in order to reduce casualties, Ouyang Shuo ordered that two battalions of swords and shields and one battalion of archers be temporarily reorganized from the reserves of the surrendered army, and go out together with the army.

As a result, in order to wipe out the bandits in Eshiling, Shanhai County mobilized more than 6,500 regular troops, which was the largest military operation ever.

After discussing the details of the “Lynx” operation, it was already 5:30 in the afternoon. It was really hard to think that I had just returned to the Hou Mansion and would go out to suppress the bandits tomorrow.

When eating at night, Ouyang Shuo looked at Xue’er standing on Bing’er’s shoulder and said, “My dear Xue’er, I’ll take you out to play tomorrow, okay?” Xue’er’s

small eyes lit up, Immediately flew over, flew around Ouyang Shuo’s head, and said in a childish voice: “Go out to play, go out to play, la la la~~~”

Bing’er’s eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: ” Brother, can Binger go to play too?”

Ouyang Shuo shook his head resolutely, “No, you have to go to school tomorrow!”

Binger’s face collapsed immediately, and she angrily poked the rice in the bowl with her chopsticks , muttering in his mouth: “Eccentric ghost, eccentric ghost, bad brother~~~”

Ouyang Shuo smiled wryly and had to explain, “Brother will take Xue’er out tomorrow, it’s something important, it’s not really going out to play.”

“Really?” Bing’er didn’t believe it.

Ouyang Shuo glared at her, “When did my brother lie to you?!”

“Okay, Bing’er forgives you.” The little girl’s emotions come and go quickly.
