The crossing starts from the Datang Shuanglong

Chapter 126
The area of ​​the Ryukyu Islands is not large, about the size of a county in the Central Plains.

After Chu Tianxiu really set foot on the land of this island country, he vaguely knew why Shan Meixian was so envious after seeing the development of Yizhou.

It may be because the current ocean trade is not prosperous enough, so that the current Ryukyu does not have the style of the Wan Guo Jinliang of the later generations. What a small town looks like, and it's the most decaying one.

Fortunately, the most prosperous place on the island, which is the former capital of Zhongshan Kingdom, seems to be passable. Although the buildings here are mostly thatched huts, they are quite neat and tidy. Window curtains and curtains.

The road between the huts is also paved with white sand, and the edge of the road is divided by stones. Coconut trees, palm trees and gorgeous flowers are planted everywhere on the roadside, making people feel like they are in a garden.

The most important thing is that the residents they met along the way, even though they were generally dressed, dark-skinned, and seemed a little worried, but most of them looked ruddy and healthy, and there were basically no yellow and thin guys. They have a normal life.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be due to you, Meixian, that this city can have such a scene, right? If it weren't for you, I'm afraid this city would be no different from other cities."

Even though Chu Tianxiu didn't know the inside story, he could guess some things just by guessing.It would be absurd to say that Shan Meixian's talents have not brought a little change to this island country.

"Tianxiu, you are right. When I set foot on this land more than ten years ago, it was actually a mess. Unfortunately, it seems that I have done a lot here, but it seems that the island has not been able to What a pity to bring about fundamental changes!" Shan Meixian said with a sense of regret.

If it was the past, Shan Meixian would indeed feel a little proud of her contribution to this island country.To put it bluntly, it was because of her existence that this country was a little more civilized, so she was actually very proud of everything she had done.

It's a pity that what she saw in Yizhou a few days ago shattered the pride in her heart.After she witnessed the sample project of the Yizhou base, she realized that she seemed to have done a lot, but most of it was just superficial, and her ability was actually far behind.

"No, Meixian, your talent is very good. Due to the lack of its own conditions, this isolated island country can reach such a level, which is enough to prove your ability.

After you take charge of this land in the future, you can completely follow the example of Yizhou and fully develop this land to become the most dazzling pearl on the sea. "

Chu Tianxiu knew where the melancholy in Shan Meixian's heart came from, so she comforted her.

……

Today's Li Jing is not on the Ryukyu Island, but has already sailed to Dongying and the waters near Goguryeo to observe the military situation. It seems that these days
Now sitting on this island is Chu Tianxiu's old brother Xingrong.

When Chu Tianxiu asked Xing Rong in a strange way, how did Li Jing win this island country, and when he wanted to hear how Li Jing, a famous general through the ages, dispatched troops, he got a message from Xing Rong. Very boring answer.

The process of the battle was really quite lackluster. It was almost like after Li Jing led his troops into Ryukyu, under the leadership of the guide, he went straight to the capital of Nanshan Kingdom, broke its capital, captured its king, and then quickly went to Zhongshan , After doing the same thing, Beishan was taken down again.

The whole process was like flowing clouds and flowing water, without the slightest delay. I don't know whether Li Jing's personal level is too strong, or the strength of the three kingdoms of Ryukyu is too weak, or both.

Fortunately, it seems that because the war ended too quickly, the process of these three wars was very fast, and did not cause too many casualties, and the disciples stationed in the Dongming Sect were not damaged.

The strength of the Dongming faction is not weak. When Chu Tianxiu followed Shan Meixian to the residence of the Dongming faction, he found that it seemed to be a small city, and its prosperity was actually no less than the kingdom of Zhongshan. It can be said that It is a country within a country in Zhongshan.

When it comes to comprehensive strength, the size of Dongming Sect may not be in Chu Tianxiu's eyes. After all, the number of gang members in this sect is only about 1000, and its strength is very weak.

However, the background of this sect is extremely profound. Perhaps it is because Mrs. Dongming has implemented elite training, which makes the core disciples of the Dongming sect very strong. There are nearly ten first-class masters alone. Twice as many first-class experts as there are in the Money League.

It has to be said that the skills of Shan Meixian's disciples are indeed unique.

When she first came to this island, Ryukyu was almost a forbidden place for martial arts, and she might not be able to find even a second-rate master.

The most critical thing is the internal industry of Dongming faction.

The Dongming faction is the largest weapons merchant in the Central Plains. The iron-making industry is naturally developed. There are three to four hundred blacksmiths under his command to forge weapons for him continuously. There are even a few of these blacksmiths who can forge magical weapons. A master blacksmith of sharp weapons.

Ryukyu Island does not produce iron ore, but Shan Meixian has opened up the joints of Dongying through trade and bribery long ago, and obtained an excellent iron ore mining right from a daimyo.

Don't look at the vast land and resources of the Central Plains, with countless minerals, but most of the iron ores in the Central Plains are actually poor ore, and most of them are extremely difficult to mine.

In contrast, the iron ore reserves in Dongying seem to be small, but because of the strong geological activities here, the iron ore is brought to the surface by volcanic earthquakes, and the burial depth is very shallow, and the iron ore branches are particularly scattered, everywhere It can be dug, and most of them are rich ore, which is easy to smelt.

With this natural advantage, the Dongming faction spent much less on smelting steel than their counterparts in the Central Plains.

If these master blacksmiths of the Dongming School are willing to work with all their strength, it will take almost one year to create weapons that can equip an army of 5 people.

Not only is the iron smelting industry developed, but the shipbuilding industry of the Dongming School is also extremely advanced. There are also nearly a hundred highly skilled shipbuilders in the school. It is also impossible to build a large sea-going ship like Piaoxiang.

It has to be said that the family background of the Dongming faction is really too strong. It was Chu Tianxiu who was preparing to start, but he had never experienced the preparation. It was almost after he understood the situation that he scratched his itch in an instant.
