Chapter 709 Inspecting the whole island
The expeditionary force in the territory of Yizhen went out to start a war against the Duke of Liu, and after the combined army and garrison went out to start a war against the Marquis of Luanshan, Qu Mao immediately called a meeting of the remaining heroes to arrange for the rapid development of the territory of Yizhen.
Regarding the 12 islands in Yizhen territory, after all, there is still a vast sea between them and the main mainland. Therefore, Qu Mao decided to build the 12 islands in Yizhen territory as the main body of Yizhen territory after the power of Yizhen territory expanded to the main mainland. holy place.
For this reason, a series of construction projects must be carried out as soon as possible, and time does not wait for anyone, including military construction, basic livelihood construction, and school construction.
Under Qu Mao's strong request, all lines in Yizhen's territory began to develop crazily.
Especially after Qu Mao learned that Su Yan's plan to conquer Su City in one day and fight in Liuwang Principality was very smooth, and after Chafidel and Zhang Da's battle in Luanshan Hou Kingdom was also going very smoothly, Qu Mao decided that he needed to fight in Yi Town Inspect the 12 islands in the mainland of the territory and see for yourself the development results of Yizhen's territory.
Everything is going well in the frontline operations, and the development of the rear must not lose the chain.
After much deliberation, Qu Mao decided to start with the three new islands in the north, and inspect the residents' living and working conditions and the development status of each island one by one.
Especially because of the war, the Sky Island and Lian Island, which have been isolated for a long time, especially need Qu Mao to visit. After all, the food production base is in Sky Island and Lian Island.
Along the way, Qu Mao was also thinking: Although Yizhen Territory has been clamoring that the capacity of residents has been saturated in the early stage, among the total population of 13 million, the navy, army, expeditionary force and garrison add up to more than 4.4 million. There are less than 9 million residents plus surrendered soldiers and converted to free citizens.
In fact, the total number of residents in the territory of Yizhen is far from reaching the upper limit of the territory of Yizhen. Now there are 3 million outlying islands in total for the Expeditionary Army, Army, Garrison, and Navy South Village military base construction personnel.
The troops remaining in the territory of Yizhen are mainly the navy. Most of the navy is placed in the military port and naval barracks. The territory of Yizhen can accommodate at least 7 million more people.
After all, the placement of the army does not need to consume too much territory, and it is mainly concentrated in some buildings, such as barracks.
It's just that the resettlement of residents may consume more territory, such as homesteads, houses and cultivated land.
Fortunately, at the current stage, there is no need to consider the issue of new residents and resettlement. When this issue is to be considered in the future, I am afraid that Liuwang Principality and Luanshanhou Kingdom have already been taken down.
Arriving at the three islands in the north, Qu Mao just turned around and left.
The three newly manifested islands did not have many residents. After all, they were always in a state of war in the early days.
Moreover, the three islands are newly formed, the terrain is rather strange, and the land is not suitable for farming. At present, only the sowing of pastures, the sowing of trees, and the excavation of reservoirs and aqueducts are carried out.
Three islands, a total of 600,000 people have not been resettled, especially after the expeditionary force went out, the three islands in the north seemed very empty.
After turning around the three islands in the north, Qu Mao also figured it out. Although after the three new islands appeared, the total number of residents planned to be resettled on the three islands in Yi Town Territory reached 5 million, but now the three islands Still relying on the rain to accumulate fresh water resources, Qu Mao believes that the livability is not very good, and there is no big problem in relocating the population later.
Want to understand this, Qu Mao is not in a hurry, and encourages the residents who have been resettled on the island to plant trees and pastures first, because plants have a certain water storage function.
Qu Mao is also very careful in the inspection of Yidao. Although Qu Mao has always lived in Yidao, as the territory grows larger and the number of residents increases, there are not many opportunities for Qu Mao to wander around Yidao.
Taking advantage of the fact that the army had already left, Qu Mao also made a careful tour of Yidao, including the Magic School, the Holy Light School, etc. Qu Mao personally visited and encouraged the residents to develop well.
Even though the island of Yi is not large, it is the island where the lord's hut of the territory of Yi Town is located. Therefore, the total number of people resettled has exceeded one million. The number of residents resettled per unit area should be the highest among the 12 islands.
Outlying islands and Ji islands are both relatively large in size. Together, the two islands accommodate 5 million people in Yizhen territory, which is more than half of the total residents in Yizhen territory. Moreover, both islands have a population of about 2 million. The positioning of the outlying islands is relatively Compared with Season Island, it is more comprehensive.
There are agricultural, industrial, and scientific and technological research institutions on the outlying island, as well as the largest water conservancy project in the current stage of Yizhen Territory—the Lihe Reservoir and the Lihe Reservoir dam, and the hydrodynamic research institutions are all near the dam.
The reason why Ji Island has developed so well and is positioned as a military factory is mainly because Xuande has always been very concerned about the development and development of Ji Island, and even placed all his family members in Ji Town of Ji Island.
Because there is a sea fort on Zhongdao, it is destined to be a military-oriented island. The number of residents resettled is less than 500,000, and most of them are naval families.
Green Island, Bo Island, Gan Island and Lian Island are collectively referred to as the four southern islands. Qumao was originally defined as the basic island of industrialization. Therefore, non-military factories, as long as there are factories on other islands, will be built on the four southern islands, but after all, the development The period of time is relatively short, and the number of residents resettled is not particularly large.
Some time ago, the population capacity of Su Yanyi Township tended to be saturated. The main reason was that it was a time of war, and the residents were generally in panic. In addition, there were prisoners of war everywhere, surrendered soldiers turned to free people, so they felt All the islands are in disarray and there is absolutely no way to accommodate more inhabitants.
On the contrary, it is the United Islands, because the United Islands project has been repaired during the war, and the number of people gathered is more than that of Green Island, Bo Island, and Dry Island.
At present, Gandao is the island with the best preserved original vegetation among the 12 islands. The population resettlement is less than 200,000. There are only 10 towns with city walls, and the residents have not been resettled outside the town.
Liandao and Sky Island, Qu Mao spent the most time. The start of the war on the main mainland meant that the consumption of food would increase. The main grain production bases in Yizhen's territory were all in the remaining folding space of Sky Island and Lian Island.
After turning around, and then back to Yi Island, the time has come to the end of January in the fourth year of Tianxuan, and the battle in the north is still fierce. It is expected that Su Qiaoer will go to the mainland of Liuwang Dukedom in February to help Su Yan gather the residents of Liuwang Dukedom people's hearts.
Qu Mao also had to make good preparations for the follow-up internal affairs of the 12 mainland islands in the territory of Yi Town.
