Chapter 1656
April is the first day of the month. Fifteen Origin Item warships and 500 old-fashioned warships were in front of the Eastern Sea Army of the Great Xia Empire Mountains, carrying 20,000 and 4,000 soldiers and 48,000 soldiers in the rear of the Liaodong War Zone.
At the same time, at the southern corner of Kuwu (Sakhalin Island), the rear army of the Shan Eastern Sea Army and the former army of the Liaodong War Zone also crossed the sea and attacked Ezo Island (Northern Sea Road).
The village is a seaman on Tsushima Island, who makes a living by fishing. As an ignorant civilian - or slave - in the Japanese country of this era, Xiaomin is probably a slave. It is impossible for Murakami to know the situation in the world, and he also did not feel any changes in Tsushima after the Great Xia banned the sea. Because Haimao has nothing to do with small people like him.
His boat could have only been fishing near land, but couldn't really leave the confines of Tsushima.
The weather was just right, and when the village came out of the fishing village, he thought about how many fish he could catch today, and then he got the pair of horses to sell, and how much he could sell.
Oh, Tsushima is the only city on Tsushima Island, right by the sea not far away.
Tsuma Island is composed of several large and small islands, and Tsushima is the center of these islands. It is located between two islands, facing the sea.
The village went to the beach, untied the rope, and was about to get on his own boat, but suddenly, there was a faint roar in his ears!
He startled slightly, looking up at the sky. There are no clouds, just a clear blue.
"Isn't it thunder?"
He turned his head and couldn't help moving towards the direction where the thunder came, that was where Tsushima was.
Before he could react, there was another roar.
“???”
The village is at a loss: “What are the nobles playing?”
I saw a few smoke pillars in the direction of Tsushima Soaring into the sky, there was another roar, and more and more plumes of smoke rushed into the sky. Murakami finally felt that something was wrong.
He hurriedly tied the ropes of the boat again, and then looked at the sea cliff next to him and climbed up. Amidst the thunder, he climbed to the top of the cliff, and when he looked up, he suddenly saw many white lines intertwined in the sky. . One end of the white line is connected to the sea on Tsushima's side, and the other end is connected to Tsushima.
"What?"
He was at a loss.
At this time, there was another thunderstorm. Dense, but perhaps a little smaller for individual sounds. He didn't even know if he heard it right.
Then I vaguely saw rows of white lines projecting from the sea on Tsushima's side, as if a person was drawing a brush, but it was white, not black.
And these white lines, unlike the previous ones, are straight!
Then there was another roar, and a call sign and cry were vaguely heard.
"War?!"
A lightning flashed in his head, and came back to his senses suddenly. I saw a straight white line, and it came here!
So fast!
Before he could react, the person was shocked and fell down. If it wasn't for the conditioned reflex to hug a solid rock, he would have fallen off the cliff and shattered his bones!
He turned his head mechanically, and saw a huge hole on the cliff not far away that was still smoking!
He yelled and stumbled down the cliff.
Tsuma, at the beginning of the fleet's arrival, firstly used heavy artillery strikes for ten rounds, and targeted strikes, hitting the port of Tsushima to a pulp. After a short pause, the warship continued to approach, and then fired flat with the light Origin Item cannon.
And take advantage of the situation to quickly dock.
"Quick, quick, login! Login!"
"Occupy Tsushima within one hour!"
"Resistant kill without mercy!"
"Kill Kill Kill!"
That's how the war started.
And in the mainland of the Great Xia Empire, there is not a trace of turmoil.
The emperor's imperial decree attacked the Quartet on the grounds of reviving the revenge of the ninth generation, making fun of the emperor by the Japanese country, and undermining the majesty of the empire.
commoners heard of war, and the reaction was yes. Some old literati voiced their own voices, some believed that the Great Xia dynasty should repay its grievances with virtue, some thought it was not cost-effective to fight across the sea, and some cited scriptures to support it. For commoners, as long as the war does not affect survival, it is more about hope.
Because war makes one ascend to the skies with a single leap.
Especially the Mountain Eastern Sea Army and the Liaodong War Zone, which participated in the war, are worried and even more looking forward to their military families.
After the first battle, how many levels should my men upgrade? How many rewards should there be?
And this, the waves are not big. More, still pay attention to the construction of various places. On the third day after the Empire declared war on Japan and Japan, a piece of good news spread throughout Great Xia - the six main roads that run through the Empire's East, West, North, and South in three horizontal and three vertical directions have been completed!
Except for the bridges across the Yellow River and the Yangtze River that have not yet been built, other places are open all the way.
Businessmen cheering excitedly, with these six main roads, goods from the far east can be transported to the far west in one day. Cargo from the extreme north can be delivered to the extreme south in one day. Although it is based on the premise of the Origin Item transporter, many well-connected businessmen have already received news that the Origin Item transporter is about to become civilian.
In the past, not to mention that from the extreme east to the extreme west, from the extreme south to the extreme north, it was the commercial trade between the state capitals, and it was more than a day's journey.
For long-distance trade, I don't know how many businessmen have been damaged, which has caused great obstacles to the commercial talisman tablet.
And now, all this is solved!
After the successful construction of the secondary road network across the state capital, what kind of grand occasion will it be? What about village level? Regardless of businessmen commoners, are looking forward to this.
Roads are the nation's blood vessels, and all nutrient delivery depends on road traffic. Now that the main road has been completed and the first stage of the road traffic system has been completed, Ying Yi is happy.
The Great Xia Empire goes from hub to place, officials are happy.
The completion of the road system will greatly promote the local manpower deployment and commercial talisman tablet. For officials, it means better performance.
The political achievements have come out, and there is a name on the Humane Ranking, and the promotion is not shua shua shua? !
As a result, the construction of cross-river and cross-river bridges and secondary state capital roads was even more exciting.
The human and material resources have been brought into full play. In the process of infrastructure construction, the circulation of commerce has also been driven. Merchants benefit from delivering materials, and commoners benefit from workmanship. Even the slave labor in the slave labor camp can be said to have benefited—three years of inspection, five years of expulsion from slavery, and those who do well and work hard will be reduced.
Each additional work they do, they are one step closer to being freed from slavery. One step closer to becoming a Han Chinese citizen.
Speaking of which, the slave laborers in the slave labor camp are very honest. It's not just because there are strongmen in charge - the management of the slave labor camp is on the list, and every one of them is strong inhumans. Although they are not the army, they crush slave labor with no difficulty.
The key is that although slave labor is a slave, it is not bad for food and drink.
The Empire did not treat them badly in this regard. Although the construction schedule was tight and I was exhausted every time I was tired, I could always keep up with my food and drink.
Being full of white rice every day, for these slaves, they are even happier than before they became slaves.
Because of this, the slaves hoped to get rid of slavery and become the true citizens of Great Xia. How happy is that?
