If the land is occupied, it is not really owned by the corresponding residents, Lu Zhe knows this, but how did Luo Shao find out?

It has been nearly two and a half years since Lu Zhe occupied the territory that originally belonged to Baiyue and set up Minnan County and Nanhai County, and what he has been doing since he occupied Minnan County and Nanhai County is some sorting out matters.

The combing may seem full of histology in the word, but these matters are all full of blood. That's right! Lu Zhe sent his army to sort out whether he was doing anything else, or to find out any tribe or person of the Baiyue people, and then carry out targeted bloody killings one after another.

A large number of second- or third-rate troops were stationed in Minnan County and Nanhai County, and they killed a large number of men of all ages of the Baiyue tribes, leaving only women under the age of 30 who could have children, as long as they were not of Chinese blood, they would kill, kill, kill!

Any expansion always has to shed blood, either the blood of one's own people or the blood of the enemy, isn't it? In the battle for living space, it has always been the law that if you don't die, you die is my death, and only sharp blades and blood are eternal.

If you don't kill a hostile alien man, do you want to stay and find yourself unhappy? Even if these aliens have no way or ability to find themselves unhappy now, but if contemporary affairs are solved in the present era, will they leave a scourge for their children and grandchildren? Lu Zhe couldn't do this.

The exploration and killing of the Baiyue tribes in Minnan County and Nanhai County has not stopped, but some relatively clean areas are being resettled in batches, and nearly 300,000 people have been resettled so far. For the two counties of southern Fujian and Nanhai, with a total area of more than 400,000 square kilometers, only 300,000 people obviously means that there are still large areas of uninhabited land, so immigration will be a long-term project.

The total area of Lingnan is the sum of two Minnan counties and Nanhai counties, that is, the total area exceeds 800,000 square kilometers.

Luo Shao apparently came up with the relevant occupation strategy from Lu Zhe's immigration to Minnan County and Nanhai County, and he did not strongly ask for immigration in order to stabilize the rear supply line, after all, having the head of the country living in the country means that the place is not empty. Some questions will also be guaranteed, won't they?

Speaking of land area, Lu Zhe looked at the territory and roughly calculated when he was bored, his current territory is all the land south of the Yangtze River and part of the land north of the Yangtze River, and the total land area is more than three million square kilometers.

Huh, that seems a little wrong? The current territory of the Han State established by Lü Zhe should be about the same size as that of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Qin land and some areas in the north are not owned by the Han State, so how can it be larger than the total land area of the Southern Song Dynasty? The answer lies in the fact that there was a Dali country in the southwest of the Southern Song Dynasty, and now there is no Dali country, and that land and even more southwest land are part of the territory of the Han Kingdom, and at the same time, Lu Zhe also sent a naval army to the later Taiwan Island and Hainan Island a year ago to lay boundary monuments. Therefore, the area of these two places is also taken into account.

Speaking of the navy, Lu Zhe opened three new shipyards in the Nanling section of the Yangtze River, and Quanzhou and Guangzhou, which were newly established in southern Fujian, also opened one shipyard each, plus the one that originally existed in Jingling, the current shipyards in the entire Han Kingdom have increased to six.

The main development direction of the four shipyards in Jingling and Nanling is inland river ships, and the tonnage is basically no more than 500 materials (equivalent to 160 tons), but the development direction of Quanzhou and Guangzhou is large ships.

There are quite a lot of types of big ships, in fact, the Qin State has made a large ship (about 650 tons) of 2,000 materials in Shandong, and the big ship made by the Qin State is a rich ship model. In other words, it was an oval-shaped vessel that looked like a bathtub, and the largest vessel weighed 3,000 (975 tons).

According to the unit in ancient times, the unit was 0.325 tons in modern times, and Lu Zhe naturally continued the unit habit at this time, and he set up shipyards in Quanzhou and Guangzhou, which were newly established in Minnan County, purely out of helplessness. After all, there are many best shipbuilding bases in the land of China, such as Qingdao or Lushun, but now those territories are not owned by Lu Zhe, are they?

Quanzhou and Guangzhou have a history of shipbuilding from the Sui Dynasty. The dynasty that really achieved large-scale development was during the Northern Song Dynasty, when Quanzhou and Guangzhou had 70 percent of the world's shipbuilding, and once set a new record for 3,000 ships with more than 500 materials launched in a year.

There will be changes in the geography of mountains and rivers. However, Lu Zhe believed that since Quanzhou and Guangzhou had excellent natural seaports in the Northern Song Dynasty, there must have been a natural seaport in the ancient pre-Qin period, and when he sent people to investigate, he really found a natural seaport, and found a large number of hardwood trees in its nearby area, so it was natural to establish shipyards in the two places.

Lu Zhe is not a professional seafarer, and he has not learned how to build ships, but in the era of great information, whether it is watching popular science programs or the Internet, he has some relevant knowledge. He first proposed the concept of the keel, and then briefly described the principle of bowtip breaking water, and then left it to professional people to study.

Shipbuilding should have a keel, without Lu Zhe's intervention, the keel concept did not appear until the Song Dynasty, at that time, the deck of the pointed bottom sea ship was flat, the ship's side was sharpened like a blade, the cross-section of the ship was V-shaped, and the keel through the head and tail was set under the pointed bottom of the ship, which was used to support the hull and make the ship stronger, and at the same time the draft was deep, and the ability to resist wind and waves was very strong. European ships only began to adopt this keel structure in the early nineteenth century, hundreds of years later than the Chinese.

Lü Zhe advanced the basic concept of shipbuilding by more than a thousand years, and although it is still only a technical concept that requires continuous research and practice to mature, it is conceivable what kind of impact will occur, and this influence will increase with Lü Zhe's continuous intervention.

As early as a year ago, the shipyard in Guangzhou had designed two styles of concept drawings, and the ships they designed were a traditional bathtub appearance style with a keel of 3,000 materials, and the other was a Song Dynasty appearance style with only 1,200 materials.

Lu Zhe, a layman, did not understand the design of the ship, he only knew that the boats with the appearance of the bathtub were only suitable for inland river driving, and the test of sailors who wanted to sail with such a ship in the rough sea was not ordinary, so he naturally rejected the appearance of the bathtub, and thought that more efforts should be made to study the one similar to the Song Dynasty.

In fact, the result of the development of the shipbuilding industry in the Song Dynasty was the accumulation of shipbuilding technology, and the ships built at that time were almost no different from the modern appearance, which was a kind of scientific and technological accumulation that could stand the test.

Again, Lu Zhe is not a professional shipbuilding engineer, his intervention can only provide a general direction, as for how to build a qualified ship, can only rely on the continuous research and practice of professionals, the reason why he attaches importance to shipbuilding and put forward the concept of HNA is with a strong military intention.

If you want to attack the more southwestern region, relying on the sea to run long distances is far less time-saving and labor-saving than taking the land route, and at the same time, the difficulty of logistics must be reduced a lot, Lu Zhe's vision is to rely on the coastal route to become an attack direction, choose to land somewhere in South Asia and lay down a coastal base, and then gradually expand inland, when the time comes, it is far better to form a two-way offensive route, which is far better than an attack from land alone, and can also make the place become a two-front operation. And this is only a short-term military target for the south.

In terms of long-term planning, waiting for the time to start against the Central Plains or Liaodong, at that time, because the long-term cross-sea operations in South Asia must have accumulated enough experience, and the continuous supply of how to land and logistics must have become mature, Lu Zhe officially sent troops to the north, and the land advance opened a front behind the back of the nations, isn't it another repeat version of the South Asian conquest?

So far, the shipyards in Quanzhou and Canton have finalized no less than three three-masted and two-thousand-pound warships, and have actually built and tested them, and it has been proven that such ships are ...... How so? The speed of the borrowed wind is good, probably eight to nine knots, but when the waves are strong and the wind is stronger, they all roll over and sink without any accident.

The experience and technology of inland rivers are certainly different when they reach the sea, and it is precisely those shipbuilders who use the experience and ideas of inland rivers to build sea ships, which are destined to survive a long period of sadness and hardship.

Lu Zhe had enough time to wait, and he knew better that a success was to use countless failures to study the right direction, so what he paid the most attention to was not how many ships of real nature were sunk, but that the ships could sink but people had to be saved.

There are many times that Lu Zhe has to wonder a little, in addition to his professional engineering, the most changed after the crossing is about engineering technology, he is very curious about how those non-professional crossing peers have done so many great things one by one, it seems that no matter how difficult things are, they will immediately succeed without saying a word, and how to build a ship that can stand the test at sea is so difficult in his hands?

There is still something to be comforted, at least the iron-smelting technology is becoming mature without Lu Zhe's intervention, a large number of iron weapons are being produced, and bronze weapons are gradually withdrawing from the former Lu Zhe army and now the stage of the Han army. However, after all, the production capacity is still slightly insufficient, and the army is gradually updating weapons at each stage, and it may take a while to upgrade the agricultural tools.

It is impossible to do anything overnight, but once you don't pursue some things, you will never be able to succeed, just like Luo Shao knew that it was impossible for the Southern Expeditionary Army to break out into a large-scale battle with the Ouluo State before the logistics line was established, he still sent small forces again and again to test or harass him.
