Chapter 963 Longling City Planning
Back at Longling Camp, Jin Ling thought about it carefully and decided to stabilize first and then fight.
To be stable first means to build.
After the fight, it means to build well and attack again.
The construction plan is to use Longling Camp as an entry point and nail it tightly. You can deal with changes in the situation in Guzhu in the future, and attack forward and backward, firmly grasp the branches of the entire Lingshan Mountains on the border between the two countries in Jinyuan's hands.
To this end, he decided to expand the camp into a city.
Long Lingcheng.
This plan is so grand that Qinghan and Jinyuan allies in the rear had not yet recovered from the construction of the Three Barbarians, and had to shift the focus of the construction with great fanfare. Fortunately, in the barbarians, they recruited nearly 100,000 young and strong barbarians from the Three Barbarians to participate in the construction with a considerable commission.
With this foundation, the staff from the Three Barbarians can be drawn out in large quantities.
In order to show support for the construction of Jinyuan, the leader of the Shangui tribe, Galavar, directly dispatched General Sowell to lead 3,000 troops, as well as 10,000 young tribes of the Shangui tribe, and 10,000 young tribes of the Baiyue tribe, to escort 20,000 Loufang prisoners and directly to the Northern Jin Kingdom. These people, including men and women, were transported by Jinyuan's large ships through the Neimanze and arrived directly to Jinling's baron territory, Lingshan Immortal Township.
There is a reason why Galavar is so generous. The previous battle in the Three Barbarians consumed a lot of wealth and food and destroyed a large amount of land. The barbarians had a shortage of resources and needed to maintain the food supply of a large population, which was really difficult. Jinyuan now has wealth that is as rich as the country and has sufficient food. After the war, sending these young people to work for Jinyuan can not only alleviate the food crisis of the tribe, but also alleviate the problem of insufficient manpower caused by the rapid expansion of Jinyuan. More importantly, Jinyuan gives wages, and the money is sent home by the barbarians, which can greatly alleviate the economic trauma caused by the war in the barbarians.
Although the headquarters of Jinyuan has been moved from Lingshan Fairy Township to Jinhua City, Lingshan Fairy Township, as the private territory of Jinling, is also the base camp of Jinyuan. The headquarters of Jinyuan craftsman hall, Xintang, Medicine Hall, Money House, Carriage House, Auction House, Caoyuanju Inn, Tobacco and Liquor Factory, etc., are all here. There is also an ever-expanding Jinyuan Academy, including Jinyuan Basilica and Soldier Training Ground. Moreover, the construction at all levels is still booming and requires a large number of people.
Therefore, the arrival of more than 40,000 barbarian laborers immediately solved the urgent need of Jinyuan. Even if the barbarians were in their hometown, they were originally working in daily life and were only recruited as soldiers during wartime. Therefore, working was nothing to them. Not only did they not complain, they were happy. Because they understood a truth that working for Jinyuan would not only make enough food, but also make money. Money could buy a lot of good things, delicious food, fun, and many beautiful things that they had never seen before in the Northern Jin Kingdom.
Lingshan Xian Township has nominal officials stationed by the kingdom. Yang Pu is the nominal township of the Northern Jin Kingdom, and is also the township of the kingdom who was actually appointed by Jin Ling to assist in the jurisdiction of the territory. It can be said that he is an official position in both parties, a man from the Northern Jin Kingdom, and actually a man from Jinyuan.
Jin Ling himself formulated the construction plan for Lingshan Fairy Township in detail and handed over the actual implementation work to Yang Pu. The latter knew that this childhood playmate had long been different from the past, so he worked for him with conscience, honesty and meticulousness. Later, under the operation of Feng Yuandao, the former village owner of Shuangshi Fairy Village, Zhou Yi, who was once the owner of Juyinglou, the city lord of the city lord's mansion, was also transferred to Lingshan Fairy Township as the deputy town owner, that is, Yang Pu's deputy.
Zhou Yi knew very well that during the time when the eldest prince Shang Jiong and the second prince Shang Yu died one after another, and when the princess Jin Qinghan of the different surname took over the power of the kingdom, even Feng Yuandao expressed his loyalty to him. As one of Feng Yuandao's confidants, she naturally had to help with her with all her strength. What's more, the rise of Jinyuan did indeed allow her to see an extraordinary force from the people at the bottom of the kingdom.
The former boss became a subordinate, which made Yang Pu feel trepidated. However, Zhou Yi didn't mind at all. Any orders from Jinyuan or Yang Pu would be fully implemented.
After receiving and resettling more than 40,000 barbarians, according to Qinghan's instructions, Yang Pu and Zhou Yi began to appropriately allocate their construction direction according to the construction and development plan of Jinyuan.
Among them, two hundred craftsmen from Jinyuan and their allies, as well as a thousand barbarian men and women, under the escort of the advance brigade in Lingshan Camp in Jinyuan, opened mountains and cut wood, chiseled stones and penetrated the walls, and began to build a mountain road from Lingshan Military Camp to Longling Camp. Among them, there were immortals with immortal power and strong barbarians. Most of the terrain along the way was also top-down, so the construction speed was very fast.
With the efforts of more than a thousand people, in less than ten days, they built a mountain road from Lingshan Military Camp to Longling Camp. This mountain road connects some of the original paths in Lingshan and connects and expands. It is four people wide, based on stone and wood as railings, with a total length of more than 140 miles.
Every ten miles, there is a guardhouse. Since the Lingshan monsters and beasts have not been eliminated and there are certain dangers, no one has been sent to guard them yet. However, according to Jinling's plan, Jinyuan will send patrols from time to time to patrol.
The builders were working on the road while working. In the end, the road was completed and they also came to Longling Camp.
They all carried various construction tools. After they arrived, they didn’t have much rest. They started mining rocks and wood and built houses according to the plan.
Longling Camp had already begun to expand and build, and with their joining, the construction speed was 100 miles a day. Jinyuan and allied craftsmen had previously had experience in building Jinsong City, and this time they were even more familiar with it. Jinling only gave them a draft of planning, and they could immediately understand the meaning and do their work well.
Longling Camp is experiencing rapid changes, and the camp scope is constantly expanding outward. Functional buildings such as stone factories, wood factories, forage factories, Caoyuanju Inns, carriages and houses have also begun to be built.
A large amount of supplies from the Northern Jin Kingdom also enriched every corner of the camp with the arrival of the Jinyuan caravan.
In addition to camp construction, hundreds of thousands of acres of surrounding land were cultivated and seeds were sown. The earliest batch of seeds were planted by orphans, and many areas had already sprouted and grew into green hopes. Now, a hundred miles away from this farmland, the original fields have become farmland.
