Chapter 1442: 1443The chaos in Qin is over

Chapter 1442 Chapter 1443 The chaos in Qin is over

The Tang army has actually completed the occupation of the northern part of Qin State. The aboriginal people in these places have no idea of ​​resistance. They have been tortured by this war and are somewhat numb.

The Western Wall Fortress in the far west is still resisting, but the fighting there is no longer relevant. As a border area of ​​Qin, the Western Wall Fortress itself does not have much industrial base, and fighting against the Tang Dynasty is just a joke.

After Liu Zhian killed his entire family, he resolutely prepared to represent Da Qin in resisting the final attack of the Tang Empire.

As a result, his army only resisted for two days before collapsing under the crushing force of the Tang Empire's armored forces. The shortage of ammunition is one of the reasons, and another reason is that the Qin army itself has lost its determination to fight.

 A cannonball fell, and a regiment of troops chose to surrender. Hundreds and thousands of people raised the white flag after encountering the Tang Army's reconnaissance troops.

  When the remaining positions of the Qin Army were no longer even two or three kilometers deep, Liu Zhian ordered his troops to resemble the Tang Army, and he himself chose to end his life honorably.

His body was handed over to the Tang army, and this battle was generally regarded by later historians as the last battle for the Tang Empire to unify the Western Continent.

As for the battle on the Western Wall Fortress, many people are not even willing to mention it. That was synonymous with the madness and despair of the old nobles. No matter the intensity of the resistance or the final result, it was not as good as Liu Zhian's last ditch effort.

With the surrender of Emperor Qin Yingduo, the countries on the Eastern Continent gradually became more nervous. An unprecedented monster was turning its attention to them.

Yes, the Tang Empire was too powerful. It was the first huge country to complete the unification of almost the entire continent. If Tang Mo could mobilize all the power of the entire Western Continent, he would be worthy of his name. The most powerful person in the world.

However, only the senior officials within the Tang Empire knew that in fact, their Emperor had no specific action plan to invade the Eastern Continent.

Although the General Staff has drawn up several landing plans, and many of them seem quite feasible, their emperor is still not eager to let his troops enter any country on the Eastern Continent.

Tang Mo is trying his best to make his own empire stronger instead of making it look bigger. The territory is almost useless to Tang Mo now, and no matter how large the population is, it is just a burden to feed.

 Are population and land resources? Of course, yes, but if they cannot be used properly, the population and land will also become a burden.

Tang Mo needs to turn his population into an industrial population and a market that can support his continued industrialization and modernization, not just a group of guys who want to eat.

At the same time, he wanted fertile land that would bring profits to the empire, not barren land that would be a waste of money and resources for garrisoning.

Therefore, after annexing Chu, Shu, and Qin in one go, Tang Mo believed that the most important thing was to absorb and naturalize these areas. It was obviously inappropriate to continue to expand.

 Therefore, a large number of Tang army troops still stayed in these areas to maintain stability, instead of quickly gathering towards the east coast to prepare to kill the countries on the eastern mainland.

 Because millions of Tang troops remained in the newly occupied lands, the stability of these areas was basically guaranteed. At the same time, the Tang version of the Marshall Plan began.

 The Tang Empire used almost all its power to transfer goods, food, money, and technology to these areas.

 As the heartland, it was first controlled by the Tang Empire, and the Dahua region is also recovering at the fastest speed. Production and construction were carried out in an orderly manner under the leadership of elite soldiers and generals selected by the Tang Empire. New factories have begun to operate one after another, newly built roads are connected, farmers are working hard in the farmland, and towering chimneys are emitting billowing black smoke that blocks the sky and the sun.

After the Western Wall Fortress was captured by the Tang Kingdom, carloads of orc slaves began to be transported from the Orc Empire to the Tang Empire. The orcs could not wait to sacrifice their lives for their beautiful new life.

 They can work in the Tang Empire for more than ten years, or even decades, so that they or their descendants can go to a happy country far away on the endless sea.

I heard that the ocean can be seen there, there are endless forests and trees, there is abundant water and it is free... As long as these conditions are met, for the orcs, it will be the legendary divine realm.

The Tang Empire, which is in urgent need of labor, also needs orc labor. With these laborers at their disposal, the speed of infrastructure construction in the Datang Empire can be increased to a terrifying level.

Elevating tall buildings from flat ground is just a basic operation. The speed of highway construction of hundreds of kilometers a day makes people excited. It was truly the pinnacle of collaboration between slaves and machines. At the cost of 270 people dying from overwork, the Tang Empire set a terrifying record of laying 150 kilometers of highways across the country in one day.

 That’s right, on average, one kilometer of road can only accommodate two orc laborers. Such a terrifying rate of loss is the guarantee for Tang State to quickly complete its infrastructure construction.

However, this is also because some of the roads built by the Tang State were in the Chu region. After all, there are many mountains there, and it is really difficult to build roads.

Tang officials did not give up building these places because of these difficult objective conditions. On the contrary, they devoted great enthusiasm and regarded improving the economic conditions of these places as a challenge.

They believed in His Majesty the Emperor’s slogan of building roads first if they wanted to get rich. They also believed in the idea that roads would strengthen the empire’s ability to control local areas. Therefore, the first reaction of these Tang officials after receiving the money was to build roads.

While building roads, these young people who had reaped the dividends of industrialization naturally believed in industrialization, and many factories began to be built.

 Deep mountains and old forests? Then build your own small hydropower, small thermal power...Build a machinery maintenance shop, build a small fertilizer plant - the new three small projects in the other world began to spring up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

Then, the fruits in the mountains became treasures, and a large number of canned and dried fruit products were transported from the factories and sold to other parts of the empire.

 There is no need to worry about sales at all, because this era is still in a state of shortage of everything. There is no need for quality or brand. Those are things that need to be worried about in the future.

 Now we only need to produce things and they will definitely sell well in the market. If that doesn't work, just transport it to the relatively barren Shu or Qin lands, and you'll definitely be able to sell it at a good price.

No matter how bad it is, you can send them to the Orc Empire and use them as export commodities for the empire. You can also make a profit in exchange for slaves. In short, as long as you have a product, you can’t lose money in this world!

If it is close to the port, it can be transported to the port for loading and transportation to the Eastern Continent, and you can make a lot of money by then, and it can also bring countless jobs to the local area.

In short, working hard to improve production capacity is now the top priority of the officials of the Tang Empire, and the distant plan to conquer the Eastern Continent is a matter for the navy - anyway, the aircraft carriers of the Tang Empire are currently bombing Dorne...
