    On November 13, Zhao Ran set off from Thanglong Palace to the Governor-General of Myanmar.  Qing Yu Bao Chi stopped at the location of the Governor's Palace, the former capital of Myanmar.

    Zhao Ran saw Buddhist temples everywhere in Gula City, which shows how prosperous Buddhism was before it was occupied by Taoism.  It is a pity that Myanmar, like Siam, is a land of Buddhism, but it is not on the same path as Xixia, Tubo, and Beiyuan Buddhism. Not only have the two sides been separated for hundreds of years, they often even blame each other, saying that the other party has taken the wrong path.  Coupled with the relative isolation of the terrain, there is very little traffic.

    This time Taoism entered Burma and Siam, Buddhists in China could only look forward and sigh, and some monks even secretly cheered for Taoism.

    In addition to the governor of Myanmar Zhang Yuanji and the commander-in-chief Song Xiong, the governor of southern Siam Ning Gaocheng, the abbot of Liuyung Temple in Siam Ayutthaya Lun Daidi and the superintendent Liang Xiaoyou and other decision-makers rushed to Kuala to greet Zhao Ran  .

    Myanmar has just been included in the Ming Dynasty in the sixth year, and Siam is even later, less than two years ago. Everything is being rebuilt, so the credibility is very low, and there is nothing to say.  But Zhao Ran still had to break down the tasks for them. Without applying pressure, people might relax. Set a goal in front of them and move forward consciously or unconsciously. Even if they go slower and fail to reach the goal, it is better than having no direction.  Standing still comes faster.

    There are 12 million people in Myanmar and 8 million people in Siam. Zhao Ran did not ask too much of them, let alone ask them to report blindly.  The final decomposition task is that within six years, Myanmar requires a credibility value of 80 million, and Siam requires a credibility value of 60 million.

    Compared with Annan and Champa, it is obviously much lower, not to mention Yingzhou. In terms of per capita value, it is also far lower than Goryeo, which already has a credibility value of 50 million.  However, these two places have always been places where Buddhism flourished in the past. It is more difficult to change people's beliefs. This task is still not easy to complete.

    The positioning of Myanmar and Siam is similar to that of Annam and Champa. They are both the granary of the Ming Dynasty. In addition to the credibility task, Zhao Ran also gave them a grain task. Within three years, the rice exported to the mainland, Yingzhou and Korea must reach 10%.  500 million catties, reaching 3 billion catties within six years, and reaching four billion catties within ten years to feed the growing local population.

    To this end, the two governor-general areas must vigorously reclaim land and "mobilize" more local people to invest in agricultural production.

    Food can be produced, but at the same time, the transportation problem must be solved. When Zhao Ran came this time, one of his tasks was to inspect the port construction.

    Zhao Ran has no plans to go to Siam. The coastal port south of Ayutthaya is already a mature port. What needs to be done is to expand the throughput capacity. Myanmar is far behind and needs to take a closer look.

    The next day, Zhang Yuanji and others accompanied Zhao Ran to Lanli Island on the west coast. This was the port location selected by Zhang Yuanji. Once Zhao Ran agreed, they could immediately get a loan from Four Seasons Bank to start construction.

    There is only a narrow waterway between Lanli Island and the coast. The natural conditions are very superior. After seeing the terrain and asking about the water depth, Zhao Ran agreed. However, he requested that the original port plan be expanded.  It can accommodate thirty large container ships at the same time.

    "Qinzhou Port Shipyard has set up a large workshop in Champa to use the abundant wood in Champa to build ships. In March next year, the first batch of 24 2,000-material container ships will be launched. After that, it is expected to build 2,000-material containers every year.  There are ninety-six ships, all of which are used for cargo transportation in Myanmar, Siam, Champa and Annam. Longjiang Shipyard and Quanzhou Shipyard will also invest in slipways to produce two thousand container ships every year. I require them to supply forty-eight container ships every year.  After three years, we can barely solve the problem of tight maritime transportation capacity here."

    In addition to food, Myanmar also has a pillar industry: water jade.  Water jade not only has decorative beauty, but is also a good material for refining magic weapons. At least 30% of the magic tools currently used by Taoist sects require jade. Water jade is a very good jade and has excellent psychic effects.

    After inspecting the situation in Myanmar and Siam, Zhao Ran began to prepare for the real purpose of this southward trip.

    In the meeting hall of the Governor's Mansion in Gula, he asked Zhang Yuanji: "Master Yuanji, what is the situation on the other side?"

    Zhang Yuanji was well prepared. He opened the curtain on the wall, pointed to a map and said, "Please look at the map, Master Hongfa. Myanmar faces Tianzhu across the sea. The locals call it the Bay of Bengal. To the north of the Bay of Bengal is Bangladesh. At present,  Confront us across the Naga Hills.¡±

    Zhao Ran pointed at Tianzhu and said, "Where did this picture come from? Is it accurate?"

    Zhang Yuanji said: "We spent a lot of money to buy it from a businessman in Delhi. This is the official secret map of the Delhi Dynasty. As far as we can tell, the general scope is correct, but it is difficult to say how accurate it is. According to the information we have, Tianzhu  It looks like a loose sand, but it is not a loose sand. The situation is very complicated. Generally speaking, the north and the south are divided. The Delhi Dynasty in the north is the strongest, while the south is divided by more than 30 vassal states., surrendered to Delhi.  Among the southern vassal states, the most powerful ones are Bengal, Jabbar, Bidar, Gubagar, and Bangalore, known as the Five Heroes of the South.  "

    Zhao Ran asked: "Are you clear? How strong is it?"

    Zhang Yuanji said: "The country we know the most about is Bangladesh, which has an estimated population of tens of millions. The country has a hundred thousand soldiers in the Naga Hills. There are almost a thousand people with magic. Their cultivation level is not high, but the magic is very weird."

    Zhao Ran nodded when he heard this: "A vassal state has tens of millions?"

    Zhang Yuanji said: "We heard that the five southern princes have a population of more than ten million, and the other princes also range from one million to several million. Among the Tianzhu countries, the strongest one is the Delhi Dynasty in the north, which is said to have 60 million people.  . Some people say that Tianzhu has a total of 200 million people, some say 300 million people, and some say 400 million people. No one has ever calculated the specific number."

    Zhao Ran asked: "There are only 15,000 people in the Burmese capital, right? Can you win against 100,000 people? Song Xiong?"

    Song Xiong said: "The Burmese capital currently has three guards under its jurisdiction. The middle guard has 6,000 people, who are my descendants of the Ming Dynasty. The Guanxi garrison in Yingzhou has 6,000 people and is the left guard. The right guard is a local. The Bago garrison also has 6,000 people.  . The general believed that with the power of the Burmese capital, it was not a problem to defeat the 100,000 Mongolian troops in front of them. The difficult thing was how to fight next. Tianzhu is too big and there are too many people. After defeating the Mongolian army and occupying Bangladesh, they will inevitably face other  The armies of various princes, even the Royal Army of Delhi. The Royal Army of Delhi is the enemy we should be most alert to in this battle. I heard that it is very powerful, and its officers and soldiers are very brave in fighting, and their magic skills are different from those of the southern princes."

    Zhao Ran said: "Don't think about what happens next. If it needs to be strengthened, where should we start?"

    After thinking about it, Song Xiong said: "The first one is the Wooden Ox self-propelled Fulu artillery. Our division is only equipped with sixteen guns. If we encounter the enemy's naval tactics in the future, there may be heavy casualties. We need to add at least sixteen more guns."

    Zhao Ran nodded: "I will give you thirty-two doors. Continue!"
