Zhang Hao spent two days figuring out what happened at sea.
The route passed through the waters of Mirage. At first, Mirage provoked Ocean Group twice, but then it gradually became more honest. Although it occasionally released a little fog, it was mostly innocuous. Ocean Group would also respond a little bit - try a few cannonballs.
Try something new.
But for the time being, both sides seem to be in peace.
Since the new route was opened, there have been more than 500 ships going back and forth from the Kingdom of Qixia to the Continent of Taotu.
As a result, everyone gradually calmed down and became a little more relaxed. Unexpectedly, this time, Mirage Dragon actually called reinforcements from all around. There were five Mirage Dragons, all of whom were in the God Transformation stage, and there were also a large number of shrimp soldiers and crab generals. They couldn't be tempered.
Defense, Dayang Group's warships suffered a loss.
The battleship Zhiyuan, which has the smallest displacement and the weakest defense, was attacked first and its keel was destroyed in just ten minutes. However, relying on its strong outer armor, the battleship still persisted for a while, but in the end it was still unable to escape.
sinking fate.
After the other three warships rescued people, Dugu Junjie decisively ordered - return!
After that, the battleship was unable to escape the mirage, but it was able to survive for more than a day with its strong defense. And relying on bombs, especially the brutal crossbows, the mirage was also scarred.
But when the cannonballs ran out and all attack methods were used up, these mirages began to go crazy.
In the end, Dugu Junjie got angry and drove the battleship directly into the smallest mirage, causing a bloody head injury. However, the largest mirage went crazy and gave the battleship a tail.
At that time, the battleship was damaged and floated more than ten meters sideways on the sea. But the mirage was not feeling well either. Its tail was already torn to pieces, and it completely lost its combat effectiveness.
Only then did the two parties separate.
After hearing this, Zhang Hao nodded and praised Dugu Junjie for his correct decision.
But at this time, the impact also spread. The Ocean Group's warship finally encountered a marine monster. Everyone was worried that the route would be cut off again?
In the turmoil, Zhang Hao had to stand up and say: We have re-opened the route to the Emerald Sea, so there is no need to worry.
In fact, ever since the Dayang Group sold the steel battleships, the Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Sealing Formation, and a large amount of technical data to the Xiaoyao Sect, the Xiaoyao Party has turned a blind eye to the Dayang Group; and the Dayang Group is also a good person, and every day
It was all 'sneaky' every time. But everyone just understood it tacitly.
The Xiaoyao Sect saw the contradiction between the Dayang Group and the Xuanzhen Sect, and would not let go of the opportunity to poach. Although Zhang Hao led to the death of Taoist Priest Dingshan, at that time Zhang Hao represented the country of Qixia.
After all, things have passed, and the future is more important.
In addition, Zhang Hao also said that we are about to roll off five warships. For the safety of the route, after the five warships are launched, Dayang Group, the country, and the Xuanzhen Sect will all act together to hunt down the mirage!
After simply appeasing the people, Zhang Hao headed non-stop to the Dayang Group headquarters - or office headquarters, the Dayang Group Building in Ninghe County.
Originally, this was the Zhang family's residence, and it was later leased to the Dayang Group. But now, the entire Ninghe County belongs to the Zhang family, and Zhang Hao directly allocated this place to the Dayang Group - anyway, it is left to the right.
matter.
However, what Dayang Group wants to discuss today is a major matter - railway rights!
Today's Dayang Group is relatively powerful. The group has three divine transformation stages and more than two thousand Nascent Soul stages, which is comparable to the peak power of a country. Not to mention wealth, even if the technology is leaked, Dayang Group is still rich.
enemy country.
You know, many key technologies such as steel technology and oil refining technology are in the hands of Dayang Group.
Now, Dayang Group has begun a new expansion, and this is the railway. This railway starts from the port of Changshan Town, and is now officially named 'Changshan Port'. It goes all the way through the old capital of the Kingdom of Jinyang and crosses the Qiufeng Ridge.
Passing through the vicinity of the imperial capital of Canglan Kingdom, all the way to the Kingdom of Shaoze.
After reaching the Kingdom of Shaoze, continue northward and connect to the Kingdom of Changlin, which is the Xuanzhen Sect.
Here in the Country of Canglan, there is another branch that goes south to connect to Qianlong Port.
The entire railway is planned to have a mileage of about 30,000 kilometers and adopt a double-track system. The inspection of locations along the route has been completed and there are no problems in negotiations.
This railway will connect three major countries, connect the ports of Qixia Country and Canglan Country, and connect the resources of Shaoze Country. A preliminary economic circle will be initially revealed after the railway is completed.
Now, all the preparations are complete, and just waiting for Zhang Hao's signature, the ground can be broken.
Zhang Hao looked at the planning map. Now within the Kingdom of Qixia, the railway has been extended to the former imperial capital of the Kingdom of Jinyang, Anqing. However, the imperial capital of the Kingdom of Qixia is now preparing to move here. After more than three months of preparations, the imperial capital is still under construction.
among.
Different from Jianwu City, which was temporary in nature, Liu Xinyu wanted to build Anqing into a real, permanent imperial capital. Therefore, the project was huge. There were already four main railways extending from Anqing - east, west, north, south,
Four directions; and enough space is reserved for future expansion.
The planned artery will extend from the east of Anqing City, past Jingshan City (the place where Zhang Hao visited the battlefield for the first time), then extend to the southeast, and then cross the "line of sky".
The line of sky is a gap in the Qiufeng Ridge. It is a checkpoint between the Canglan Kingdom and the Jinyang Kingdom (now the Qixia Kingdom), and it is also the most dangerous one.
Legend has it that this place was chopped down by a super master, so there was this ‘One Line Sky Level’.
The biggest difficulty now is the sky.
The Kingdom of Canglan still attaches great importance to this level. But if a railway is to be built, this line of sky level will only exist in name only.
The line of sky is very dangerous. If you want to build a railway, you must open the mountain.
Of course, what the Kingdom of Canglan means is that the railway needs to be built, but you, Ocean Group, also want to build a checkpoint here for me, which must be strong enough. When necessary, we must cut off this place.
The Kingdom of Canglan has made it very clear - in case there is another war between us in the future, we must have the means to protect ourselves. The Kingdom of Qixia is now a bit disturbingly powerful.
Zhang Hao looked at the map for a long time and finally nodded, "To satisfy the decision of the Canglan Country, isn't it just to build a checkpoint? It won't cost much. It will be built as a special station.
If we really want to turn against each other in the future, we can attack from the sea. Now we are neighboring countries!"
Zhang Hao finally signed.
The plan was sent to Liu Xinyu early the next morning, and to the Emperor of Canglan Country at noon. Both parties signed again, and the plan was officially implemented.
On the third day, Dayang Group's railway construction department began to get busy.
