Chapter 955 Iron Ore Mining in Colima, the Third Jiedushi

"Eckart, the king's decree for the monkey needs to be in quadruplicate. Arrange for the guards to send it out urgently! One copy for the monkey, one copy for the chief minister, one copy for the head of the Divine Enlightenment, and one copy for the wolf head Elway!"

"Follow you, Patriarch!"

After the Wang order was issued, the personal guards shuttled back and forth, quickly getting busy. These personal guards have all received written instruction and have a certain level of education. They are not only the backbone of the officers under training, but also the attendants and messengers who convey the king's orders, and they are directly loyal to Xiulot himself. Some of their backgrounds were young heirs sent by the chiefs and nobles of various tribes, and most of them were promoted and trained civilian warrior elites. In fact, as long as he is selected into the pro-guard, it means a shortcut to heaven!

"Bring me a few more rolls of wear-resistant leather paper! I will continue to issue orders to legion commanders everywhere!"

"Yes, Patriarch!"

Before the sun set, oil lamps were lit in the hall, emitting bright light. Xiulot dipped the ink with a quill pen, and carefully wrote Wang Ling and letters mixed with pictures and texts.

"Witness of the Lord God! Wolfhead Elvi, your long snake army fought well in the Western Expedition! After the capture of Chapala City, the next battle will gradually slow down, and the spring plowing in May will become the top priority …You lead the Long Snake Legion, sit in the Chapala Lake area, and follow the monkey Kuluka to participate in the reclamation of the fields, the establishment and management of the Mintun and the flag team..."

"Elway, you have to study hard and learn the experience of monkeys governing the place! And after the autumn harvest in October, the Long Spears will continue to occupy the lake area, and the Long Snakes will return to Hekou County to station... From the end of the year, the Yin of Hekou County I will hand over the location to you! Hekou County has a population of more than 300,000, hundreds of villages, and dozens of flag teams, all of which will be managed by you! ... Monkey will also hand over the situation and arrangements in the county to you..."

"Lord God bless! After you return to Hekou County, the first priority is to organize the westward migration of the families of the Spear Corps, as well as arrange the migration of the Guakili Banner Team... and the second priority is to beware of the dragon Lansai and Le Upper Mann…”

"Elway, you came from a warrior family in the Holy City and served my grandfather since childhood. I have never doubted your loyalty. Therefore, I am very relieved that Hekou County is handed over to you! You must guard Hekou County for me, Take good care of your Tlaxcala warriors...especially when facing the Alliance and the God-King, and I will soon go to the capital of the lake..."

At the end of the letter, Xiulot made two clear points, and also informed himself of the next arrangement. Then, without stopping, he unfolded another roll of parchment and wrote it to Ezpan, the commander of the Second Long Spear Corps in Apa County.

"Ezpan, my loyal general... Apa County has been stabilized, the migrating tribes have become loyal, and the population under control is close to 300,000. You have done a good job!...And what you mentioned last year, along the coast, to conquer the north The plans of Terkos ministries, the time is now ripe!..."

"For the plan of the conquest, I have four instructions! First, restore the Serpent City in the southwest mountains, and establish a town in Palm Bay on the seashore as the starting point for the coastal conquest. Second, cooperate with the Colima tribe in the mountains Cooperate, follow the advice of the priests and craftsmen of the Divine Apocalypse, establish a stronghold around the town of Zongshi, mine the volcanic ash in the Colima Mountains, and the newly discovered small open-pit iron mine..."

After nearly two years of prospecting, the kingdom's exploration team finally found a small open-pit iron mine near the seashore in the depths of the Colima Mountains. The open-pit scale of this iron mine is actually very small, not even one-third of the small iron mine in Heiyanshan, which once disappointed the exploration team.

But Xiulot knows the details of the later generations, and he can be sure that as long as he digs deep underground along the open-pit iron mines, he will inevitably dig into the Colima deep-seated large iron ore belt with amazing reserves! And the latest discovery of this small iron mine in Colima also became the last straw, which made Xiulot make up his mind to "eat" the pure and lively lynx Elaine.

"Third, the purpose of Apa County's conquest of the Tekos tribes in the north is to completely open up the air route to the north and establish a reliable large-scale supply point! Therefore, your main attack target should be the city-states along the coast, especially Three Rivers City at the mouth of the Leman River...don't waste too much energy on the tribes in the deep mountains. As long as they are willing to submit and pay tribute, they can maintain their existing autonomy. As for the city-states and fertile land along the coast, We must truly control it in our hands! The descendants of the gods, nobles and priests who are unwilling to hand over their power will be dealt with severely..."

"Fourth, when the kingdom conquers the Tekos tribes in the north, there will be two armies on land and sea! The monkey Kuluka will be transferred to the Chapala Lake area. Then, he will lead the legion to conquer along the Leman River , until the mouth of the downstream. And you are following the coastline, marching all the way to the northwest... If all goes well, you will join forces at the city of Three Rivers at the mouth of the Leman River! At that time, the conquered land of Terkos in the north, along Those along the coast belong to you, and those along the long river belong to the monkeys...the ones in the mountains will maintain their autonomy, and you will negotiate with each other and slowly subdue them..."

"Ezpan, you have to cooperate well with the monkey! The Three Rivers City at the mouth of the sea, I will row into your hands to guarantee the route to the northern continent! The kingdom's exploration team has reached the remote sea of ​​extreme cold, The speed is far beyond my expectations. The tasks on their shoulders are related to the future of the entire kingdom! And the kingdom will spare no effort to give them enough support..."

"So, ensuring the advancement of the exploration fleet is your most important task! In fact, the plan to conquer the North Tekos is mainly carried out for this task... I attach great importance to the exploration of the north, you must keep in mind !..."

After writing this, Xiulot paused for a while. The kingdom's second batch of support fleet, ten long ships, nearly seven hundred warriors and sailors, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com has set off to the north at the beginning of December last year. Calculating the time, it is now the beginning of April, and four full months have passed. If all goes well, this supporting fleet should have arrived at Xishan Port, the core of the west coast. And if it goes faster, maybe they all arrive at Nangang or Beigang...

"The northern land with numerous tribes is full of vitality!... From the northernmost Whale Harbor to the Kingdom of the Lake, it takes more than half a year to communicate once. And it takes more than a month from the kingdom to my hands... I don’t know what Only then can I personally take a big boat to the vast and infinite west coast, and take a good look at the mountains and seas, tribes and camps there... Take a look at those belonging to the aborigines and kingdoms, San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Vancouver!  … "

Shulot faced the north and thought for a long time before withdrawing his long thoughts. He calmed down, wrote a royal decree, and released this fierce and decisive four-fingered "beast".

"The lord **** bears witness! The light of the sun will shine on you! Ezpan, for the above-mentioned plan and goal, I decide to grant you the full power of the coastal conquest! When this royal order arrives, you will be promoted to control the military and government, and fight against the enemy yourself." Chief Apa who declared war on all the ministries, the Apa envoy of the kingdom!"

"Go! Open up the coast of the northwest for me, so that all the tribes of Tekos in the north will surrender at the foot of the kingdom! The iron mines in the Colima Mountains and the iron smelting center that will be established by the God of Enlightenment will become the last one behind you." Solid support!...”
