    The weather in September is clear and clear. Not only is the sun shining brightly, but the sea is endless and the blue waves are rippling.

    On this day, Wang Qi set off with his army and left Dongzhou Port.

    ? One warship after another, sailing on the sea, advancing rapidly.

    Wang Qi stood on the deck, holding his hands on the side of the ship, with expectations in his eyes, and said: "It has been many years since the establishment of the Qi State. Today, the strength of the Qi State has become countless times stronger. However, if the Qi State is strong, the Hercynian Empire will not  Weak. This time we attack the Baixiang Kingdom, it is our Qi State¡¯s initiative to attack, and the first battle against the Haixi Empire. This time, based on the Baixiang Kingdom, it is the real first battle out to sea."

    Wei Xun said: "Your Majesty, we will win this battle."

    Xu Nanfeng was also excited and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, we have so much information. We have even prepared many means to win. There is no way we will lose to Franco this time."

    Yan Chixing also nodded and said: "Your Majesty, in addition to our strength and weapons, we also have Charles in our hands. With Charles, Franco dare not act rashly. After all, Franco cannot ignore Charles's  life and death."

    Everyone is extremely excited.

    There is only expectation, no fear.

    Wang Qi nodded and said nothing more.  For him, this battle is very important, and he can only win but not lose.

    The battleship is still cutting through the waves and continues to move forward.

    Fortunately, the ship not only stores a variety of fruits, but also a variety of pickled meats to ensure that the crew on the ship's diet is not affected.  After all, the people operating the ship were not only people from Qi State, but also people from the Haixi Empire.  With these people in charge of the ship, the voyage went smoothly, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

    On this day, when Wang Qi and his party were standing on the deck, Wang Qi looked at Arthur and said in a deep voice: "Arthur, we have been sailing on the sea for almost half a month. The nearest supply point to us is also  How far?"

    Arthur said: "Reporting to your Majesty, I estimate that we will be able to reach the first supply point in one day at most. Along the way, I will keep an eye on the situation of the sea route, and there will be no mistakes."

    Navigating the sea is not easy.

    ? Requires experienced people.

    Because Arthur often goes to the supply points on his own route to collect taxes and take away supplies, he has an extremely clear understanding of the supply points on the route and can judge the distance based on the conditions along the way.

    Wang Qi nodded and said: "Arthur, I hope everything goes well."

    Arthur said: "Your Majesty, everything will go well. I will never dare to deceive Your Majesty in any way."

    Wang Qi said: "I hope so."

    Arthur didn¡¯t say much anymore. After all, he didn¡¯t say anything about the three supply points before, which made Wang Qi a little unhappy. This is normal.  He also regretted it in his heart, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, at the beginning, no one knew that the supply point would be exposed.

    The battleship continued sailing, and another day passed in the blink of an eye.  Standing on the battleship, you can already see the islands on the sea in the distance.

    Wang Qi directly ordered to prepare for landing on the shore, and warships went there one by one. When they arrived at the port and docked, the teams stationed at the sea port quickly gathered.  After all, there were many warships coming, and they didn't know the situation. Even if they were defeated, they had to prepare early.

    When these soldiers prepared to fight, Arthur got off the boat first.  As soon as he got off the boat, the generals guarding the island quickly straightened their expressions, ordered to cancel their alerts, and all quickly saluted in unison.

    Arthur ordered the people to gather and stood aside to greet them. Then he turned to look at the battleship and said: "Your Majesty, you can land."

    Wang Qi then led the people to land on the shore.

    Even so, there are still soldiers on board the battleship to ensure the safety of the battleship.  After Wang Qi landed with his people, he went to the military camp on the island to rest and take over control of the army.

    What Wang Qi wants to do is to control this island.

    Wang Qi looked at Arthur and asked, "Arthur, what is the name of this island?"

    Arthur replied: "Reporting to your Majesty, this island is called Yongzhou Island. It covers an area of ??5,000 square kilometers. There is a freshwater lake on the island and there is no shortage of water resources. In addition, there are about 3,000 residents on the island.  It¡¯s sparsely populated.¡±

    "Many merchants come and go, mainly to replenish meat, fresh water, and some vegetables and fruits. After all, such a small island can only replenish some fresh water, vegetables and fruits."

    ¡°Residents on the island, because supply points require a lot of supplies, so many of them grow vegetables, fish, etc. By selling these supplies, they can make a good living and a lot of money.cloth, tea, etc., life is pretty good.  "

    Wang Qi nodded and said: "Yes, there are still such people living there. How many people are there in the garrison on your island?"

    Arthur said: "There are actually not many people, only 800 soldiers guarding it. After all, the number of people on the island is not large, so now, 800 people guarding it is enough."

    Wang Qi said: "The eight hundred people under your command will be reorganized. Next, they will be replaced by Qi soldiers to guard them."

    "I will obey your Majesty's instructions."

    Arthur answered directly without any hesitation.

    I have said before that the supply points are under the control of Qi State, so as of now, this policy is just being implemented.

    Wang Qi looked at Xu Nanfeng in the tent and said: "Xu Nanfeng, from among the soldiers under your command, dispatch 800 soldiers to guard Yongzhou Island. The soldiers will not be guarding Yongzhou Island forever. Two years is a cycle, and two years  After that, they made adjustments and changed their posts and returned to the country. At the same time, those who were guarding Yongzhou Island were given priority in promotion and appointment after returning to the country. In addition, compared with the domestic salary, the salary on Yongzhou Island was directly increased.  Double the distribution.¡±

    Xu Nanfeng said: "I humble my position and obey my orders."

    Living here on Guazhou Island is indeed different, and it is naturally okay to be treated differently.

    And, it should be.

    Wang Qi continued: "One more thing when guarding on the island is that you must abide by the laws of Qi and not disturb the people. Anyone who acts recklessly on the island and dares to arbitrarily squeeze the people will be dealt with, and even severely punished."

    Xu Nanfeng Xu Ran said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that all officers and men in the army will abide by the law and will not dare to violate any laws."

    Wang Qi looked at Arthur again and asked, "Arthur, who is the person in charge of government affairs on Yongzhou Island?"

    Arthur said: "The people in charge of the military are responsible for the government affairs on Yongzhou Island. In this aspect, the military and government are integrated. After all, a certain amount of authority is still needed on this island."

    Wang Qi thought for a while after hearing this. This is indeed a good suggestion.

    The place is small, so there is no need to separate military and political affairs.

    Wang Qi looked at Xu Nanfeng and said: "Xu Nanfeng, according to what Arthur mentioned, the government affairs of Yongzhou Island are also under the control of the army general. Therefore, you must make proper arrangements for the generals who are to stay. Not only must there be people who can manage the army.  ability, but also the ability to govern.¡±

    "I humble my duty and obey my orders!"

    Xu Nanfeng answered again.

    Wang Qi waved his hand, and Xu Nanfeng and Arthur retreated hand in hand.

    At the moment, it still takes a certain amount of time to arrange the handover, so Wang Qi temporarily stayed here on Yongzhou Island for another five days to complete the handover of all military and political matters on Yongzhou Island.

    Everything was under the control of Qi's army, and things gradually got back on track. Wang Qicai led the team and continued their journey.

    Since then, Yongzhou Island has become one of the states of Qi.

    Although the place is small, it is a very important island for Qi State. It can not only serve as Qi State's territory, but also a base for Qi State to control the sea.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
