Chapter 443: The Second Dongfan

Guo Zhiyuan patted Sun Zhiyong on the shoulder and laughed: "Zhiyong, thank you for your hard work! But you must be prepared to continue working hard. I am going to let you stay and stay in the Dehe Islands for a long time..."

"Ah?!" Sun Zhiyong was stunned when he heard this, scratched his head and said, "Sir, it doesn't matter if I work harder, but my ability is limited. If I miss my major affairs, it will be bad!"

Guo Zhiyuan laughed and said, "Zhiyong, don't belittle yourself. You have a calm personality and have the ability to stand alone. This time you will do a good job of helping me stay behind!..."

Seeing that Sun Zhiyong still looked embarrassed, Guo Zhiyuan continued: "Don't worry, I have already sent a letter to Dongfan and asked Mr. Zeng to bring this class of students and some grassroots clerks to Dehe Islands to meet you. Li Dan will also solve the supply and material problems in the early stage of construction. In addition, I have also drawn some skilled craftsmen from Dongfan to come here. I hope you can build the Dehe Islands into the second Dongfan!..."

"You don't need to worry too much about civil affairs issues. Just leave them to Mr. Zeng and others to deal with them. The main energy is still on military. I want you to train me a cavalry that can confront the Later Jin cavalry within three years! The source of the Bingyuan is selected from the Baoyi, the Ming army defeated soldiers and the Liaodong refugees selected. I will leave some of the veterans of the new army who participated in the battle with the Later Jin cavalry this time, lead the new, adhere to the fine traditions of our new army, and help them establish their belief in the new army, and should quickly form combat effectiveness!..."

"In addition to training cavalry, you must also always pay attention to the dynamics of the rear of the Later Jin Dynasty to collect information from the Later Jin army. I give you the right to be flexible and flexible. If necessary, you can lead the army to land and harass the rear of the Later Jin Dynasty. One is to train troops, the other is to continue to gather the Ming army's defeated troops and Liaodong refugees. The third is to restrain the troops of the Later Jin Dynasty and prevent them from attacking the Ming Dynasty. I pass on your sixteen-character policy. The enemy advances and I retreat. The enemy stations and I disturb me. The enemy is tired and I will fight. If you just need to fight guerrilla warfare with the Later Jin Dynasty according to this sixteen-character phalanx and you should not have any major problems. Moreover, the Later Jin Dynasty has no naval troops, and it is even more good at naval warfare. If you have the Dehe Islands to expand the rear, you should be at ease!..."

Sun Zhiyong was somewhat disappointed when he failed to follow Guo Zhiyuan to go deep into the rear of the Later Jin army to capture the rear of the Later Jin army, especially when Li Guozhu came back, he deliberately exclaimed in front of him, and talked about the passionate scenes of him taking the cavalry of the Xin army to sweep the rear of the Later Jin army with the cavalry of the Xin army and the passionate scenes of the battle with the 10,000 Later Jin cavalry led by Mangurtai. Although Sun Zhiyong did not feel resentful, he was sure of regret. Unexpectedly, Guo Zhiyuan trusted him so much, so that he could stay and train the new cavalry independently, and granted him the right to be flexible and flexible, so that he could land in the rear of the Later Jin army at any time. This was a huge surprise!

Thinking of this, Sun Zhiyong gave Guo Zhiyuan a clean and neat salute and said excitedly: "My subordinates must live up to the entrusted lords. They will definitely train a cavalry unit that made the Later Jin people frightened!..."

After leaving some of the Xinxin Army left behind in the camps that Sun Zhiyong had set up, and continued to collect Ming army defeated soldiers and Liaodong refugees, Guo Zhiyong and Sun Zhiyong brought the remaining Xinxin Army and the plundered Later Jin population to the Dehe Islands. However, Guo Zhiyuan did not leave immediately, but stayed to preside over the preliminary preparations and building the Dehe Islands into the second Dongbo is not easy. Moreover, Guo Zhiyuan is not around him like Xu Guangqi and others when he first arrived in Dongbo. He needs to ask about all the things he has to do personally. Even if Guo Zhiyuan has experience in building Dongbo, he feels a little overwhelmed.

Dongbo can develop so fast because of the good early planning. Therefore, Guo Zhiyuan had to prepare the preliminary plan and set up a rough shelf before Zeng Qisheng brought the personnel drawn from Dongbo to the Dehe Islands to meet him. In this way, after Zeng Qisheng and his friends arrived, the Dehe Islands would enter the rapid construction period. Moreover, he could not copy the Dongbo model. The preliminary planning must be appropriate for the local area. Therefore, during this period, Guo Zhiyuan traveled almost every corner of the Dehe Islands, and also asked the North Korean indigenous people on the island to learn about the customs, culture, and crops in detail.

Guo Zhiyuan's positioning of the Dehe Islands is completely different from that of Dongbo. The development space of Dongbo is at sea, so Guo Zhiyuan vigorously develops maritime trade and builds shipyards. However, the Dehe Islands are the bases built by Guo Zhiyuan behind the Later Jin Dynasty, so the development space is actually on land. Therefore, Guo Zhiyuan planned many horse farms on the Dehe Islands. He wanted to turn the Dehe Islands into his own horse farming base and continuously provide himself with high-quality war horses.

Of course, the first problem that the German Islands needs to solve is to achieve self-sufficiency, so military farming is necessary. North Korea has a temperate East Asian monsoon climate, with high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, and sorghum. It should be no big problem to achieve self-sufficiency after the early preparation period.

At the same time, Guo Zhiyuan also planned multiple salt drying fields on the Dehe Islands. North Korea also had a great demand for fine salt. Guo Zhiyuan could exchange fine salt for them for food, war horses and other supplies, so that Dongfan would not need long-term blood transfusions.

Three months later, Zeng Qisheng and the others finally arrived at the Dehe Islands by boat. Guo Zhiyuan was relieved. With Zeng Qisheng and the others, he was under much less pressure. He called Zeng Qisheng alone for a long talk for a few hours, and explained his plan and development route for the Dehe Islands to Zeng Qisheng, so Guo Zhiyuan could basically let go.

Zhang Cheng was also with Zeng Qisheng. Guo Zhiyuan did not tell Sun Zhiyong that he was planning to let Zhang Cheng stay in the Dehe Islands and build an intelligence network in the rear of the Later Jin Dynasty. The reason why the Later Jin Dynasty could always seize the initiative in the battle with the Ming army was also closely related to their attention to intelligence work. The Later Jin Dynasty's secret spies had already penetrated into the Ming Dynasty. Compared with the declining Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei, these secret spies in the Later Jin Dynasty knew how to hide themselves. Many servants of the Ming Dynasty generals had their own internal lines, so they knew the trends of the Ming army. Guo Zhiyuan naturally had to prepare for the future and counterattack.

Zhang Cheng brought two news to Guo Zhiyuan, one was the news that Emperor Wanli gave him the title of the throne. Guo Zhiyuan just smiled and did not have much joy in the title of the throne. Emperor Wanli gave him the title of the throne, which shows that Emperor Wanli was even more afraid of him. Emperor Wanli treated him as Sun Wukong, who was making a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, was guarding him!
