The former military governor's office captured the city of Kampala, and the news that the Menu troops absorbed the local residents and transferred under the command was immediately sent to Zhu Jingyuan.
Zhu Jingyuan's position has been changed to the governor of Yinzhou, and he is no longer responsible for the former military governor's office and the overall affairs of Mozhou. However, the central area of East Mozhou is Zhu Jingyuan's fiefdom.
The shores of Daming Lake where Kampala is located, the Mozhou Grand Canyon and the area to the east are Zhu Jingyuan's personal land.
It is also the location of the nursing home planned by Zhu Jingyuan.
Zhu Jingyuan was very happy after seeing the news and was ready to start development when the railway was completed.
Use the name of Big Food Country and yourself to develop, build infrastructure, and then gradually resettle immigrants.
Gradually clean up and repair the original environment into a modern green environment.
Find an island in Daming Lake that is closest to the equator as a place to build a nursing home in the future.
Select it in advance, set it aside, and don’t use it for other purposes.
Relevant construction and development instructions were prepared and sent to the officials of Dashi Country for processing.
Then Zhu Jingyuan looked at another piece of news, an important military news report from Xintianfu.
"The leader of the white ghost bandits, Ao Xijin (O'Higgins), formally surrendered and obtained ordinary Dongyi citizenship. He was allowed to bring up to 10,000 silver notes and family property to live in Dongyi Guolin County (Brooklyn, New York)."
After Ao Xijin surrendered, the only two main leaders of the "white ghost bandits" in Yinzhou were Bolivar (Bolivar) and Sun Martin (Saint Martin).
According to Xintianfu officials, the "two thieves of Bo Sun" are now at the end of their rope, and the date of enthronement is not far away.
Sun Martin and Boliva both once proclaimed themselves kings.
The name of the country, as well as the name of the capital, are directly after the two people.
The place where Sun Martin founded his country is in the deepest west of the Brazilian Plateau, around the city of Cuiabá.
This is almost exactly at the geographical center of the entire Nanyinzhou.
This area is also the watershed between the Amazon River basin and the Galaxy (Paraná-La Plata River) basin, and the junction of the Amazon rainforest and the Brazilian grassland.
The northern part of this area is virgin forest, and the southern Paraguay Basin has large swamps.
There are many approximately parallel mountains to the west, and a large plateau to the east.
This is a semi-enclosed area.
The city of Sunmartin was originally located on the plateau in the eastern part of this area, near a small town called Chapada dos Guimarains.
There are large areas of flat land on and below the plateau, and the rain and heat are enough to allow rice to be harvested three times a year.
The local original natural vegetation is still grassland, and the land is more fertile than the rainforest.
Before industrialization, after occupying this area, it was easier to achieve separatism.
During the years of the World War, Sun Martin built this place as his own kingdom.
Starting from several pioneering settlements, farmers were organized to continuously cut down trees and burn wasteland, achieving self-sufficiency in food.
Constantly unite or annex surrounding colonies to obtain more land, population, and machinery.
Sun Martin gathered industrial facilities from various places, set up some rudimentary factories, and established basic industrial production capabilities.
While expanding, they often looked for suitable opportunities to enter the cities behind Portugal and seize more necessary supplies.
The Brazilian troops were fighting the Ming Dynasty on the border and had no energy left to besiege these separatist forces.
The kingdom has developed very well in the past few years. The area under its control has continued to expand, and a large number of colonial points have been incorporated into the new kingdom.
Some other self-reliant princes also gradually pledged their allegiance to Sun Martin and became vassals of Sun Martin's kingdom.
Sun Martin once occupied a small half of the Brazilian plateau and prepared to move the capital to the future Brasilia area.
The capital of the Kingdom of Boliva was Medellín, the second largest city in Colombia.
Medellin is located in the Andes Mountains and has a tropical rainforest climate. It should be hot and rainy all year round.
But Medellin's altitude of nearly 1,500 meters offsets some of the tropical accumulation of air temperatures.
The temperature remains in the range of 17 to 28 degrees all year round, with almost no changes throughout the year.
However, the rainfall has not been offset. The average annual rainfall exceeds 2,000 millimeters, and it rains 227 days a year.
There are many similar cities in the northern part of Nanyinzhou.
Just because of the different altitudes in the mountains, the constant temperature ranges in different cities are slightly different.
The two mountain plateaus next to Medellin are more than 2,000 meters above sea level, and the temperature remains at 13 to 22 degrees all year round.
Bogotá, the capital of Colombia, is 2,600 meters above sea level, and the temperature remains between nine and 20 degrees year-round.
Because the temperature in the local plains was too high, cities could only be built in valleys and mesas in order to find cooler places.
Boliva started later than Sun Martin, but his development speed is faster than Sun Martin.
Bolivar once occupied almost the entire governorate of New Granada.
Including Colombia, Venezuela, and Ecuador in later generations.
For a time, the Spanish strongholds in the local area were only a few strongholds such as Bogota, the capital of New Granada.
This is because most of these strongholds are located in the mountains, and most of them are easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Before the armistice of the world war, the two kingdoms on the plateau and deep in the mountains and forests had already assumed the status of modern countries.
Sun Martin's development on the Brazilian plateau seriously weakened the Portuguese-Brazilian power.
The development of Boliva in New Granada also greatly involved the power of the Spanish.
This allowed the Ming Dynasty's New Tianfu troops, which already had the advantage, to advance faster.
It is also an important reason why Portugal and Spain find it difficult to maintain governance and continue the war.
But looking at it from the other side, Ming Dynasty's offense is also one of the important reasons for the development of Boliva and Sun Martin.
When the world war officially ceased, the atmosphere in the two kingdoms instantly became tense.
The Ming Dynasty and the Anti-Ming Alliance began peace talks, the troops on the front line ceased fire, and both sides began to retreat in an orderly manner.
After Sun Martin received the news, he immediately declared a state of martial law and began to make every effort to strengthen the defensive positions around the territory.
】
The Portuguese colonial troops in Brazil were in urgent need of repair. After retreating from the front line, they did not attack the Kingdom of Sun Martin.
St. Martin's kingdom got another half-year of breathing space.
Boliva accelerated his attack on Bogotá, intending to take out this key stronghold at the last moment.
After the Spaniards lost Ming's pressure, more power was transferred and they successfully resisted Boliva's attack, forcing Boliva to start shrinking his defense.
Then not long after, the situation took a turn for the worse. The Ming Dynasty signed peace treaties with Portugal, Spain, Britain, and France, and the entire Nanyin Province belonged to the Ming Dynasty.
After Ming Dynasty obtained ownership of the entire Nanyin Continent, he directly sent the surrender conditions and ultimatum to Bosun and Bo Sun.
If the two of them surrendered directly at that time, they could both be named earls of the Shang Kingdom of the Ming Dynasty and move to the eastern city to enjoy their old age.
But Bo and Sun's expectations were much higher than this.
They all want to become independent vassal states like Egypt and Persia, and I want to directly become the Duke of the Ming Dynasty.
They looked down upon the earldoms of their subordinate vassals, so they sent people to bargain.
But Ming Dynasty did not give them a chance to bargain, so a three-year war against bandits began.
The Ming Dynasty's bandit-suppression troops had two major parts, the naturalized Yin servant troops and the Xintianfu Huangzhuang troops.
Both armies are modern peasant soldiers, born in Xintianfu farms at all levels.
Their weapons and equipment, tactical capabilities, and fighting will are among the best in the world today.
The troops of Bo and Sun were still feudal in nature.
In the historical Nanyinzhou liberation movement, the main leaders and participants were local white farmers.
The real purpose of these farmers is to split up their families and live alone, while acquiring more land in the process.
This process has little to do with ordinary people because it does not touch local production relations.
After independence, the manor owners still controlled the means of production and maintained an economic model dominated by plantations.
It's just that these manor landowners have separated from the original nobles of the suzerain country.
In essence, it is an interest dispute within the manor owner group.
The behavior of Sun Martin and others in this world today is different from that in the original history.
They are now closer to a Shenzhou-style rebellion.
The purpose is more simple and pure, that is, to be a king and a real high-ranking noble.
Although they studied China's system, they did it very incompletely.
The original imperial courts of various countries in Europe and the West could not learn it thoroughly, let alone colonial manor owners like them.
Their goal is to become nobles themselves, how can they equally distribute the land to the peasants?
They instinctively continued to use the traditional feudal manor system, driving the people at that time to use them as serfs.
With such an organizational form, if weapons factors were excluded, they would not have much advantage even against the regular army in the early days of the Shenzhou Dynasty.
Facing the current Xintianfu Huangzhuang troops, it feels a bit stunned.
In the past two years or so, Ming's anti-bandit forces have achieved successive victories.
The rebel princes led by Bo and Sun continued to lose ground.
By May of the third year of Ankang, all the princes except Bo and Sun had been wiped out or surrendered.
The two Bosuns have also been trapped in the narrow area where the nest is located.
Sun Martin returned to Sun Martin City.
In this land of mountains, jungles, and swamps, only the plateau plateau in the east is easier to pass.
Sun Martin built a large number of trench defense lines here.
Bolivar's troops were reduced to Medellin and the two surrounding mesas.
A large number of trench defense lines were also built.
Xintianfu officials said that the "two thieves" were at their wits' end, but it was not a lie to say that the day of enthronement was not far away.
But the last two battles were certainly not easy to fight.
Especially in Boliva, the entire lair is surrounded by mountains and there are no normal roads at all.
It is difficult to transport heavy weapons in. Even if he uses servant soldiers to charge, Zhu Jingyuan is a little reluctant.
Zhu Jingyuan considered the situation ahead and looked for the local map of Xiangxi.
I took a ruler and made a few gestures on the map.
“The area of these two men’s lairs is only about 10,000 square kilometers, and there is enough flat land two hundred kilometers away.
"The two of them can't run away now anyway, so why not use them as targets to practice strategic bombing organization.
"Sun Martin City is more than 1,200 kilometers away from the seaport city controlled by the Ming Dynasty. The transport planes can reach the battlefield. If they are not enough, they can also find a suitable place to transfer and refuel.
"The city of Boliva (Medellin) is only two to three hundred kilometers away from the seaport. We can launch a direct attack with an aircraft carrier."
Zhu Jingyuan carefully considered various situations and then wrote two telegram orders.
Order the frontline anti-bandit troops not to rush to occupy these two areas, but to temporarily block their way out.
At the same time, look for suitable areas around the lairs of both sides to build a simple and large-scale frontline combat airport.
Use transport planes to transport explosives to frontline airports, and then use bombers to attack the opponent's important facilities.
First there are military production facilities, then the means of production and subsistence, and finally the population.
"I don't believe you can build enough bomb shelters in this day and age..."
The working efficiency of airplanes is not at the same level as that of airships.
Airships from the First World War era could only be regarded as intimidating deterrents.
The airship itself is difficult to manufacture and its flying speed is very slow, making it difficult to carry out sustained and intensive air attacks.
In this context, regular national courts may not build special air defense facilities.
Not to mention a warlord and anti-king level organization like Bosun...
At this time, using aircraft capable of continuous bombing on the battlefield should be regarded as a real dimensionality reduction strike.
The flexibility and dispatch efficiency of aircraft are not at all of the same order of magnitude as airships.
The Yinzhou bandit suppression battlefield was originally the testing ground for Zhu Jingyuan's planned air-ground armored coordinated strike strategy.
A large number of aircraft have been deployed to various battlefields in Xintianfu.
Now as long as the attack is temporarily suspended and more aircraft are used together, the strategic bombing effect can be achieved.
"The two liberators of Yinzhou are extremely lucky to be the first to experience strategic bombing in history...
"At this time when we are preparing for the bombing, we can also conduct another surrender negotiation to give them one last chance."
Referring to the treatment of O'Higgins and other high-level white ghost bandit leaders, they left home and surrendered in exchange for a chance of survival.
The two leaders, Boliva and Sun Martin, can be sent to the Dongyi Kingdom to become ordinary people, and their soldiers and people can be sent to build the canal.
The canal project required workers, an almost unlimited supply of labor.
There are already 80,000 Ming immigrants in the area, all mobilized as foremen, plus the craftsmen and foremen in Xintianfu supported by various countries in Beiyinzhou, they should be able to manage more than one million workers.
If casualties were not taken into account, it might really only take five or six years to dig the canal.
The anti-bandit troops on the front line were a little hesitant when they received Zhu Jingyuan's order.
His Royal Highness Prince Dashi's tactics are suitable to try. Previous tactics have been proven to be very effective.
The current strategic bombing should be to avoid casualties and use fuel and ammunition to exchange for the collapse of the opponent's military morale.
The effect should be similar to that of continuous artillery bombardment, but now the artillery can't go up, so why not try it with an airplane?
But if they were persuaded to surrender during the preparation period, what would happen if Bo and Sun actually surrendered?
