Looking at the busy labor scene in front of him, Cui Wenxiu couldn't help but be moved. Kong Yunzhen was really capable. He could recruit so many laborers in such a short time. Although he disclosed the news to him in advance, it was enough to prepare so many young and strong laborers and tools to be put into use in such a short time, which was enough to witness the efficiency of the administrative efficiency of the Northern Luzon local government.

As Cui Wenxiu imagined, the Luzons completely defeated their courage in the battle of Liushantaizi, the 10th Legion, and they no longer dared to easily cross the line. The entire Eastern Luzon could no longer see the Luzon army activities. They were more active within a radius of fifty miles centered on Manlong. Hillyard's conservative strategy once again prevailed. Perhaps it was this battle that ruined the Luzon army's attempt to make their strategy come back in vain.

The Central Committee of the Empire really agreed to Kong Yunzhen's suggestion. Cui Wenxiu knew that this was also a contribution. Seeing that Kong Yunzhen was working so hard to build the fortress group in Kuiyangba, Cui Wenxiu also believed that the Privy Council would be realistic and reflected to the Privy Council that once the entire Eastern Luzon was controlled, the military and political parties could find a point of entrusting the interests, Cui Wenxiu also believed that the approval would be approved soon.

The immigration issue in the empire did not require Kong Yunzhen to consider, and Kong Yunzhen took the lead in recruiting immigrants in the Indian and German areas. It is estimated that the first batch of Indian and German immigrants will set off to the east, which will further promote the construction and development of this region.

It should be said that Kong Yunzhen took advantage of the former Governor Mu Haoran, or Mu Haoran left a very solid foundation for his next term. The basic engineering construction carried out in Luzon during Mu Haoran's reign was quite large. The road from Vito to Liushantaizi is of good quality. Although it cannot be compared with the road from Shuangdui to Vito, it is already quite good for a road in a prefecture. In addition, it is dry season again, so it can be said that from Vito

The transportation line to Liushantaizi was very smooth, and a large number of materials and personnel were continuously transported from the north. The twenty-mile road construction project from Liushantaizi to Chihuoliao has been fully launched. The road surveying and mapping design from Kuiyangba to Liushantaizi has been basically completed. The segmented surveying and design greatly save time. A group of laborers are also starting to prepare for the road construction between Chihuoliao and Moyunshan to strive to start construction before May.

Thinking of this, Cui Wenxiu let out a light breath. It seemed that Frederick had made up his mind not to increase troops to Manlong. This guy's current strategy is certainly fatal in the long run, but it has left him helpless at the moment. In addition to stepping up the construction of the road system between Kuiyangba and Liushantaizi and the fortress construction project of Kuiyangba itself, it seems that the 10th Legion has no more work to do. It is impossible to attack Manlong City directly. Cui Wenxiu is not so arrogant. He has tried more than 100,000 troops to attack Manlong City, which is as strong as a rock. Even if he can conquer it, Cui Wenxiu will not bother to take down the loss.

Well, let Gillette lead three divisions to fully manage East Luzon, and he can only turn his attention to the Indian and German and Pamirs. The Luzonian bone was not so easy to take down as expected, but the Eastern Luzon had already taken the lead in the battle. Although it could not show its power for a while, as time went by, once the road to Eastern Luzon was perfected and established, the Luzonians would regret it later.

Cui Wenxiu kicked his feet hatefully. The Luzonians were huddled in Manlong like a turtle. It was not that easy to deal with themselves with such unchanging means. The two divisions could do more. After adapting to the environment of East Luzon, it would be a bit unsubstantiable. Kuiyangba should not be the ultimate goal. Gillette could do well. Although the vast hills and mountains to the south were even more deserted, they were also rich in resources for development. Relying on the fortress group established by Kuiyangba, he should understand that his pace should not stop there!

Looking at the army returning south with a complicated expression, Lei Juetian felt that Dahan, who had always supported this suggestion, had a face full of unwillingness and regret at this moment, his face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes became even more deep. Although Bi Xili knew that this retreat was just for the sake of his country to become stronger in the future, he wanted to spit out the fat meat he had swallowed. This taste was not something that everyone could understand.

The reactions of the people inside and outside the city were different. Some people celebrated that the army was able to retreat completely were afraid and the powerful Tang Empire to enter the state of war. Some people cursed and sighed that the army was incompetent. They felt that a fertile land was lost and lost the noble landlords who occupied the land. However, more people were in a regretful but relaxed mood. It was of course difficult to accept withdrawing from the fertile Huayang and Yushan. However, compared to the outbreak of a full-scale war between the already unified Tang Empire for this reason and those who were slightly clear-headed knew that the cost was too great. After all, it was the land of the Tang people, and returning it to them did not hurt the Maqi Khan themselves.

Two corpses that retreated from Huayang and Yushan began to take turns to rest, and two corpses entered Yuejing and Ronesia respectively to strengthen the defensive forces in the two regions. Since they were determined to retreat, Bi Xili did not plan to have any major military operations in the near future. While strengthening defense, it is the right thing to accumulate strength.

Thinking that the copper mines in Ankun area have entered the stage of full mining, and when Ronesia was mining iron ore, Bi Xili was in a slightly better mood. The mining of gold and copper mines can greatly alleviate the financial pressure caused by the massive military expansion and preparation for war over the years, and the importance of iron ore is even better than the first two. Iron is a necessary material for national economy and people's livelihood. Looking around the surrounding areas, except for the Milanese people with relatively rich iron ore, there is almost no reliable source of iron. The iron produced by the iron ore in the Khanate cannot meet half of the needs of the army. The Milanese people cannot expect it. The Khanate has to spend huge sums of money to import a large amount of iron from the South China Alliance every year. Since the South China Alliance itself does not produce iron, it can only be imported from the Central Continent or the Three Kingdoms Alliance through sea transportation. The high transshipment fee is attached to it, which makes the Khanate overwhelmed.

The amount of mines in North Ronesia is sufficient to make the Machi Khanate suddenly change from a importer of cooked iron into an exporter. Although the high-quality anthracite mines in South Ronesia have not been effectively developed due to transportation conditions, the bottleneck has been completely broken with the completion of the road from the western part of Machi Khan to the Southern Ronesia. The Khanate has spent a huge amount of money to build the Khanate's largest iron smelting factory in Hole City, bordering the western part of the Khanate and the province of Ronesia. Twelve iron smelting blast furnaces introduced from the Western continent were officially ignited three days ago, swallowing up the iron ore and coal that was continuously transported day and night, but the pig iron was spit out. After being smelted into cooked iron for second time, it can be directly used for military and civilian use.

Once the rope on the neck of the Maqi Khan is untied, the national strength of Maqi Khan will surely usher in a qualitative leap. Of course, it will take time, a relatively calm time and a peaceful environment. Road construction, iron ore and coal mining, and the establishment of iron smelting workshops all consumed a large amount of funds from the Khanate. These three projects also urgently needed a large amount of labor. This is the main reason why Bi Xili would rather return the Huayang and Yushan prefectures with a bad reputation. The Khanate will take some time to breathe and digest it. Now is the most critical moment. As long as you survive these two years, the Maqi Khanate will definitely be able to hold your head up and face the giant Tang Empire, the Tang Empire.

Dashen's uncertain expression surprised Lei Juetian. From the heavy face of Kaichu to the slightest expression that had just been revealed, and then to the boldness that was revealed now, it was like walking a long journey of mind. Lei Juetian really wanted to know what Dashen was thinking at this time, how could he have such a big ups and downs?

Turning his head and seeing his Minister of State with a sympathy, Bi Xili knew that he was a little obedient, but was actually caught by his Minister of State. A team of soldiers entered the city in succession. It seemed that it would take some time. Bi Xili didn't want to waste his time on this, but as the king of the country, sitting here can give morale excitement to the army that was already a little depressed, so even if he was impatient, Bi Xili had to persevere.

Seeing Dahan glanced at him and stopped talking, Lei Juetian originally wanted to speak on his own initiative, but after thinking about it, he simply kept silent and closed his eyes, and then slowly slid past his eyes.

It has been many years since he returned to the Central Plains. When he first returned to the Central Plains, Lei Juetian always felt a sense of trance back to thirty years ago. Every grass and tree, every mountain and water, his hometown accent has not changed, but things have changed, which makes Lei Juetian toss and turns every day and it is difficult to fall asleep. Lei Juetian can face the criticism and ridicule of the gentry and nobles of the Tang Empire, but he dare not face the family and fellow villagers in his hometown. He could have returned to his hometown, but after thinking for a long time, Lei Juetian finally killed the idea that had been hovering in his mind for many days.
