"Your Majesty, everyone, after more than half a month of hard work, the entire territory of Sakhalin Island has been completely controlled by our Royal Navy North Sea Fleet."

"In addition, the large ports and port cities here have also completed the construction of the main band. The 100-meter Bluestone Avenue, which extends north-south directions outside the city, has also been completed for 60 miles."

"There are nearly 50,000-acre farms along the Daguan Road that have been built and started to resume production. It is time to advance along Heilongjiang and towards the mainland."

Zhang Guangzhe sat on a large wooden bench in the conference room of the city lord's mansion that had just been completed, and said to Zhu Youxiao, who was sitting in the upper position, and the admiral sitting in a circle opposite him.

"The personnel and scout brigade of the Royal Military Intelligence Department have been sent out to start a carpet-style reconnaissance of the 300-mile area along the Heilongjiang coast. It has been drawn into a rough map, laying the foundation for our expedition."

"I order!"

Zhu Youzhao stood up, "Everyone went down and prepared immediately, leaving behind 10,000 naval soldiers, responsible for stabilizing Sakhalin Island and the construction of the grand scale. The remaining soldiers set out in three days!"

"brush"……

Everyone stood up in unison, "Abide by Your Majesty's decree!"

...

Three days later, early in the morning, six leopard cruisers led by guarding many transport ships, first returned to the waters near Nanghaerwei, then crossed the Tatar Strait and headed towards the outlet of Heilongjiang.

The Heilongjiang River in this era was wide and deep. Because the entire river had not built any reservoirs or river dams, it was unobstructed along the way, allowing the leopard cruiser to enter easily.

In the future, Zhu Youxiao will not build any reservoirs or river dams within the territory of the Ming Empire.

In this way, the destructive power to the geographical environment is too great and the loss is not worth the cost.

However, he would dig the Grand Canal on a large scale to connect all the rivers of all sizes and large in the Ming Empire, then clear all rivers and widen and deepen the rivers.

In addition, bluestone embankments were built on both sides of the river to dig the river water and try to prevent flooding.

Building a large number of canals will not only not destroy the earth's geographical environment, but also can transform the geographical environment of those harsh environmental areas, expand the living space that allows human beings to live and work in peace, and prevent soil erosion from the mainland to the greatest extent.

One day later, the large fleet sailed into the Jiangkou hundred miles, and the warships were divided into two sides to dock.

The soldiers of various divisions of the Beihai Fleet, holding the topographic maps drawn by the Military Intelligence Bureau personnel, began a sweeping and horizontal pushing operation along the banks of Heilongjiang.

Ten thousand naval soldiers who stayed in the fleet drove a large fleet, responding back and forth along the way of Heilongjiang, and were responsible for providing military supplies from various departments.

There were many sporadic battles along the way. The natives were not good at treating them, most of them were very cruel, but their distribution was too scattered, so they did not pose any threat to the soldiers.

All the villages that we encountered along the way were killed, and the remaining prisoners were also demolished by the soldiers and took them all away.

This is the three-light style sweep.

The purpose is to eliminate the potential threats from this vast area and to increase countless labor force for the labor reform brigade.

After all, in the vast area here, the construction of the Grand Official Road and the Grand Farm will be immediately started, and no amount of captives will be enough to use them.

After walking for nearly a hundred miles, there were not many enemies that were eliminated, less than 20,000, but the number of prisoners collected reached about 500,000, which gave the soldiers a big surprise.

In fact, this vast mountainous and forested area in the Heilongjiang River Basin has a population of at least several million.

But the task now is to first understand the Heilongjiang River Basin, the Ussuri River Basin and the surrounding areas, and it is not yet time to start a sweeping sweep mode.

Otherwise, there would definitely be no only about 500,000 prisoners.

Although there are not many prisoners, there are many rare furs and strange treasures that have gained a lot, which has made the soldiers more expectation for this expedition.

A few days later, Zhu Youxiao stood in front of Yongning Temple where Nuergandusi was located and looked around.

From a glance, the land here is fertile and the water and plants are fertile, and the dazzling scenery is full of beautiful scenery.

Especially here is located in the Heilongjiang River Basin area, with many rivers, forests, grassy beaches, birch forests, and abundant water and grass.

In addition to the temperature is still a little cold, it is a place that is unique.

Twinkle forests, willow bushes, grasslands, and rivers, lakes everywhere, birch trees, maple trees... Must-read book house

The geographical environment here is indescribable beauty. Many leaves are slowly emitting tender green new buds.

When autumn comes, a golden red will appear here, which will shine together, presenting a dazzling scene of green and flowing gold.

Zhu Youxiao took the large fleet to land here, visited the old sites of the ancient monuments, and let the tens of thousands of naval soldiers who had been in charge of manipulating the large fleet take a day off, and then continue to move forward.

The Heilongjiang River, which had just thawed for a while, was surging and roaring, carrying the snow water injected upstream, flowing into the sea from west to east, from the moment to the moment.

Wherever the fleet passed, I saw that the two sides were covered with dense vegetation and numerous forests, and from time to time you could see grass beaches everywhere.

Although it was already really summer, there was still a cold and solemn feeling everywhere on this land.

Although the sky is high and the clouds are light, the wind is refreshing, and the grass begins to gradually arch out of the frozen hard ground, some of the mountain and flat grasses are still slightly withered and yellow.

Walking along the way, Zhu Youxiao stood on the deck of the flagship and looked around. The birch forest and larch forest at the foot of the mountain in the distance also began to quietly change the color of the leaves, dyeing the woods with clusters of tender yellow.

On the wetlands on the riverside of Heilongjiang in the distance, migratory birds rushed back from the south were fighting for their own sphere of influence in groups, laying the foundation for having children.

There were countless birds and beasts such as swans, geese, rabbits, roe deer, foxes, etc. in the wetland. Zhu Youxiao couldn't help feeling relaxed and felt that even his mind was much broader.

This northeast land with many rivers and extremely rich water sources, and the scenery is very different from that of the mainland:

Water birds like swans, geese, etc. are everywhere, white is like snow, and black is like ink. Sometimes black and white are intertwined, and colorful.

The soldiers responsible for the warning on both sides of the river bank may gallop and chase them. They immediately flew up, and they went down, and rode back among the weeds by the river.

On this side of Heilongjiang, not far from the northeast, there are mountains and large jungles, densely covered with white poplar trees, coniferous forests, and birch forests...

In summer, forest waves are bursting, autumn is golden and red, and animals such as yellow sheep, roe roe, rabbits, etc. can be seen from time to time.

On this plump and vast land, there are numerous specialties in the Heilongjiang River basin, including sable, squirrel, black fox fur, ginseng, raw gold, and Dongzhu.

For decades, the Tsar of the Tsarist Russian Empire sent vanguard troops to occupy part of the Siberian region.

During the Wanli period alone, the national treasury received hundreds of thousands of black sable fur, tens of thousands of black fox fur, millions of squirrel skins, as well as many beaver skins and various furs.

By the eighth year of the Apocalypse, the annual income of fur, mountain delicacies by the Tsarist Russian Empire from Siberia was estimated to account for 30% of the country's total income.

After paying administrative expenses in the Siberian region, the Tsar still retained a large surplus and gained a lot of money.

Cross the Outer Xing'an Mountains, go down along the Ardan River to the place where it meets the Lena River, and walk south for more than ten days, and it is Yakutsk occupied by the Tsarist Empire.

In the Yongning Temple where Nuergandusi is located, Zhu Youxiao ordered the army to rest for a day.

The next day, all the armies continued to advance along the river and do their best to mobilize.

But two days later, Zhang Guangfu, the commander of the First Division, sent someone to send news that the troops in front actually fought a large-scale encounter!

"Oh? Who did that guy Zhang Guangfu fight with?"

Zhu Youxiao was a little surprised: Are there other marching troops on this eternal wasteland?

If there were some small battles, would Zhang Guangfu, the division commander, still need to be so anxious to repay?

And this unknown enemy is still walking towards us?

"It's the Russians from the Rakshasa Kingdom!"

A scout who hurried back to report the news flushed with excitement, "There are four or five thousand Russians, who are actually full of guns and cannons, and there are also cavalry teams, and dozens of ships running water and land at the same time, which can provide logistical support."

While he excitedly drew a circle, he kept gesturing, took a leather bag from the horse's back with one hand, and took out a bloody head inside. It was a blond, blue-eyed, and ferocious Tsarist Russian.

Now everyone calls the people from the Tsarist Russian Empire in the northwest to call it Russians, which is also very appropriate and reasonable.

The Russians of the Rakshasa Kingdom and the soldiers of the Ming Empire were still circulated and learned about it through the merchants who had traveled from the northwest of the Great Empire.

According to legend, people from the Rakshasa Kingdom are tall and big, with lush hair all over their bodies and strong temperaments. They are very cruel people.
