Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 946 Stronghold
More than ten days ago, the guards at Guli Port ordered people to open the warehouse, and then drove the labor force at the dock to load supplies—mainly food, gunpowder, livestock, knives, guns and arrows—on a dozen naval warships.

Thirteen warships, including three pure transport ships, are non-combat ships with less than fifty crew members.Combat capability is weak, even when equipped with firearms.But their warehouses are filled with a series of military supplies.

Sailing away, you can arrive at Zufa'er within ten days.

Thus, on the afternoon of two days before Sohar Port received the news, the fleet that crossed the Tianfang Sea arrived outside Zufar Port.

The area where Zufar is located is called Enze Coast, which is the name Lu Qian gave it.Connected to this narrow coastline is a plateau. The altitude of more than [-] meters blocks the warm and humid water vapor from the ocean. The water vapor cannot penetrate into the interior of the peninsula, so it can only Enze a long and narrow area near the coast. Most remain in the ghastly heat.Therefore, Lu Qian gave this area such a name.

The trees are shady, the springs are flowing, and there are too many wild animals to name them.Zufar's appearance is completely like that of a humid ocean climate, and it is completely different from the Tianfang Peninsula, which is a world of yellow sand in people's impression.

Although here can't form an effective threat to the inside of Tianfang Peninsula, Lu Qian doesn't expect them to pose a threat either.Grasp the Enze Coast firmly, and this place will become one of the nodes for Lu Qi to control the entire Tianfang World.

The location of the Gulf of Aden is too critical. There is no need to step in at this time. Now Lu Qian is only targeting the Seljuks.

But the Enze coast is well controlled, and the bastion military port is built, and the Seljuks probably don't have the energy to come and organize it.It is impossible for them to split up and rush to Zufar at this time.The tribes in the peninsula can be relied on at most, but how can they work hard?When the wharf is completed and the bastion is completed, only a few hundred people are required to garrison it, and more than a dozen cannons of various sizes are erected, even if tens of thousands of horses come, they will not be able to attack in a hurry.

Dozens of local fishermen, farmers and herdsmen squatted on the ground tremblingly. They had just been forced to shave their heads and beards with knives and guns by a group of yellow-skinned and black-haired Japanese security guards. Take a bath in a shed built of wood.This process was definitely not peaceful. Many people cried and cried, but facing those ferocious soldiers, everyone still had to choose to submit.

As a famous port on the Tianfang Peninsula, local people obviously cannot fail to recognize the Chinese.Some may even know Japanese people.

These little guys have a good sense of obedience, and they dare to fight and are not afraid of death.With the emigration of the Japanese in recent years, it is not surprising that some have become sailors on Chinese merchant ships.

After taking a shower, everyone suddenly found that their original clothes had been taken away!Instead, there was a neat set of black linen shirts.

Lu Qijun, who had just arrived, did not intend to change their habits now, and all styles were traditional Tianfang robes.

The reason why these people were asked to shave their hair and beards was purely because they were "lucky" to be forcibly recruited by Lu Qi's army.

Whether it is the construction of the bastion or others, Lu Qi needs a lot of labor.These are the people.Their beards and hairs are shaved for hygiene.

And if they were pure 'wild' natives, the soldiers would be too lazy to care about their beards and hair.

"Don't be idle! Work, work." The Japanese security guard, who could only speak a few words of dialect, yelled loudly.The angry reprimands with strange accents rang in the ears of these bald men, and the inflected voice made it difficult for them to distinguish the meaning for a while.But the ferocity and savagery contained in that voice woke them up one by one.

They all cheered up, thinking that he was still in their hands, all of them had flattering smiles on their bald faces, then put on the canvas gloves given to him by the people on the east coast, grabbed a shovel, iron The pickaxe ran towards the digging site ahead.

At this time, a military official in a black official robe was leading into the construction site under the leadership of a Japanese supervisor.

The construction of bastion has now become commonplace for the technical officials of the Ministry of War. They are like the engineering officers of later generations, they are technicians and engineers on construction sites.

The Japanese supervisors naturally have to be careful.

Zulfar Port naturally has a city, if the low city wall can be considered a city.

The decline of the Abbasid dynasty and the "civil strife" of the Seljuk Empire these years have made Zufar Port far away from the control of a powerful regime, and it has become more of a taboo for tribes on the Dhofar Plateau.

In the eyes of these tribal leaders, there is no 'city wall'.

Now that Lu Qi has seized this place, it has naturally touched the cheese of the original vested interests, but as long as those tribal leaders have not lost their minds, they will understand what kind of giant Lu Qi is. Before the strong support of Baghdad, they would not act rashly—relying on their own strength to recover the Enze Coast.

And Lu Qi wanted to take advantage of this time gap to initially complete the defense of the Enze Coast.This is not a small amount of work!
Ling Zhen looked at the plan in front of him, but his expression was not as calm as he showed outside.

This is a rare opportunity for him to be alone.

When it comes to sex, he's not afraid of anyone.But now it is a real rarity to lead an army alone.Over the years, he has not been on the battlefield for many years.

But Ling Zhen also knew that his body was over 50 years old, if he didn't come out, he would have no chance to come out.Leading troops to fight alone is his great wish. People like Hu Cheng, Tang Long, Meng Kang, and Tao Zongwang are all powerful in northern Tianzhu. After returning, they brag about themselves shamelessly. Once, I don't want to regret for a lifetime!

However, it really depends on aptitude to lead troops to fight. Ling Zhen is not young. Although he has been "sparse in battle for a long time", he is not inexperienced at all, but he was always under the command of others before.Now Lu Qian has assigned Yang Yao and Yang Qin, who are well-known in Nanyang, as deputy to Ling Zhen, but he is still flustered in his heart, who can be blamed for this?

The planning map spread out on the desktop has been drawn long ago.Zufar's topography has long been passed back to the Central Plains by the spy department, and the planning map in front of him is designed according to Zufar's terrain.

Not just a simple bastion, but also the supporting facilities of Enze City—well, the renamed Zufarer.

Not just port forts, but also city walls, aqueducts, sewers, small artificial reservoirs, water towers, etc.As a source of domestic water for the soldiers and civilians in the city.It was also just in case, in case the water source outside the city was cut off due to siege.Therefore, some wells and water collection facilities such as rainwater collection ponds must be built in the city...

The whole project is still quite large. According to the less than a thousand adult male aborigines on hand, I don't know how busy it will be until the year of the monkey.

When the momentum is stabilized, the Qi army will inevitably go out to hunt grass valleys and plunder some people back.

Now there are some fence tents everywhere on the shore, and a large amount of supplies are piled up in the open space in the open air, covered with a layer of tarpaulin and left alone.Unfortunately, there are too many things.
