579 Trip to Luzon 2
Tian Xi was already waiting here in front of the city lord's mansion, and Gao Xuliang had already sent someone to pass it through when he was preparing a carriage for Nangong Yi.
After seeing him for a week, Nangong Yi asked Tian Xi to take him to the meeting room, where he could talk if he had something to say. After being seated here, his subordinates had tea. At this time, Nangong Yi asked about the situation here, "Tian Xi, you can tell me the current situation of this place first."
Tian Xi bowed his fist and said after a salute: "Now this is basically completed. Although there are still many open spaces that have not been built, it is not needed for the time being, so there will be no more repairs. Sanzi means that we will build when we need it. It’s not too late. Now the workshops outside the city and the several quarries on the mountain have not stopped, and they are still continuously manufacturing and exploiting materials for later use. Four rivers in the city have been excavated and all are fully rested. It has also been used. We built a dam on the riverway outside the city to provide water for the river in the city, so we built the wharf at the bay. The wharf here on the riverway in the south of the city only allows flat-bottomed cargo ships to dock.
The people living in the city today are all from the Tang Dynasty and Liuqiu aborigines, and there are also a few Japanese people, with a total of 70,000. The indigenous tribes attached to the island, who are willing to follow and learn from us, are all arranged in settlements outside the city to learn how to cultivate grain fields and live this kind of settlement. There are about 180,000 of them. Most of those who are unwilling to change their lives have moved to the northern mountainous areas. There are about 30,000 of these aborigines.
The remaining hostile aborigines have been chased down to the south by the troops led by Wu Zhi Changxin and Su Naijing. Now, these people have been basically eliminated, and the remnants have been transferred to the southeast of the island. But when Wu Zhi Changxin and the others continued to chase and suppress them to the southeast, they found that there was an extremely large tribe with an unknown number of people. Wu Zhi Changxin returned with people, and the third son also went with them. He wanted to build a city there to house soldiers, horses and supplies. "
After explaining the general situation, Nangongyi asked: "How many troops are there today, and how many people are repairing the city and quarrying stones?"
Tian Xi went on to say: "There are more than 6,000 people here who are preparing for quarrying and other materials. Three sons have taken away more than 5,000 people and construction has begun in the southern bay. As for the military strength, we have 23,000. People, there are 5,000 troops stationed here, and 18,000 people in the south. Among them, Wuzhi Changxin and Su Naijing led 3,000."
As soon as Tian Xi finished speaking, An Zi interjected: "Brother Tian, is there no servant army here?"
Tian Xi said helplessly: "There are, but there are too few, only three thousand people are available, and these people have been transferred to the south by us. Otherwise, there are no such soldiers in the south, there are more than two thousand people. However, it is indeed difficult to form an army. Afterwards, the three sons asked these people to maintain the safety of the settlements. In this regard, Wu Zhi Changxin said that if they want them to be truly usable, they can only choose the age from these indigenous people. The young ones have been cultivated since childhood, and the three sons also planned to do the same."
Nangong Yi asked: "There is a way to the southern bay. I need to see the three sons quickly."
"Sir, there is a road, but the road has not been completed. Even the third son went to the southern bay by boat. If the husband wants to go there, it is better to take a boat. It is safer for the first time, and more for the second time. Go faster and take the sea. If it's a clipper, it will be there in seven hours."
"Well, you quickly find someone to accompany us on the boat. Now we have just arrived at noon, and there is still time to hurry up."
Tian Xi is not easy to ask why Nangong Yi is so anxious. What he can do is to do what Nangong Yi said and help him find someone who recognizes the place to accompany him.
Tian Xi left, An Zi looked at the frowning Nangong Yi for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Sir, the situation in Luzon Island is not good for us now? Third brother I am afraid I will also second here. If there are not many people coming, what shall we do?"
Originally, Nangong Yi’s plan was to mobilize 20,000 people from here, but now that there are too few people that can be mobilized here, if this is the case, it would be really difficult. After all, some things must be done. Hurry, if you really take your time, it will be difficult to get a hit when someone is ready.
But reality is reality. If the number of people is not enough, Nangong Yi would really not dare to move. The specific situation can only be known after meeting the three sons. Now Nangong Yi wants to stop here and do his best to deal with He. Luo Dan, the only way to quickly dissolve this distant threat. As for Luzon, there is no such thing as an influx at all. You can wait for the opportunity to sort it out.
Nangong Yi looked at An Zi and sighed: "I'll talk about it after seeing the three sons. Now, I can't think of any good strategy. However, according to Teratian Xi just now, it can be put here. , But what is going on in the south, we can only find out after it has passed."
Nangong Yi and An Zi left without staying here for long. On the wharf, Tian Xi paid goodbye to Nangong Yi and returned to the City Lord’s Mansion. Nangong Yi and others were not procrastinated and opened all the ships after leaving the harbor. Fan, drove out of the bay area at high speed. They were going to the southern bay, but they were afraid that they would have to wait until dawn the next day. New 81 Chinese network update the fastest computer terminal: https://
On the deck, looking at the scorching sun overhead, An Zi said: "Mr. Siam is really good here. It's as hot as this season, but it's even hotter than Zhuhai Garden. Thinking about Chang'an, I think, wait. It's better in this kind of place, at least warmer."
Nangongyi looked at the distant sea without looking back, but said faintly: "This is not as prosperous as Chang'an. It is really a place of restraint. Why do you come here?"
"Sir, to tell you the truth, I think Chang'an is not suitable for me. It may be more suitable for Brother Su or Brother Bing. Although it is not as prosperous here, you don't have to think about everything here, and you don't have to think about it. Day is cautious."
"You are wrong. No matter where you are, you have to be careful when you do things. You are willing to stay here, but it is because we are ruling here, not others. If others dominate here, you will still feel uncomfortable here if you don’t. Are you still young, and many things are not as thorough. Take your time and get used to it. You will know what to do."
An Zi nodded without understanding, and then asked: "Sir, did you say that the young master received your letter? I don't know what will happen to the young master when he learns it?"
Nangong Yi turned his head slightly and looked at An Zi and said, "What can he do? It's not just that I can only stay in Broken Leaf, and I won't have a chance to see Xu Ying until I come back next time. As for the letter, I should count the time quickly. you recieved it."
In Nangongyi's view, as long as Xu Ying is rescued, the rope tied to Li You will be gone. He really can't think of how Li You will arrange Yang Yu's affairs, but he knows one thing, that is Li You There will never be any more hesitations and worries. (End of this chapter)
