Beiyuan City is being rebuilt. Civilians and troops who have come from all over the place to get high salaries are gathering here, making the place appear full of vitality.
But in fact, the place is still full of ruins, and various corpses can be seen or dug up everywhere.
It's no surprise that people dig out an arm while digging in the ruins with a shovel. Some people can even find valuable things from these corpses and make a fortune from the dead.
Some bomb craters have been utilized, directly excavating and laying pipes to complete the city's sewer system.
In fact, other cities in Qi State are now similar to battlefields. There are dug trenches everywhere. Those who don't know better think that war is still going on there.
The army was very busy. They also had to send manpower to clean up the rubble, and after receiving reports from workers, they also had to go to the scene to check for dangerous items.
There are ammunition hidden by the Mirage army in some places, most of which are bullets, but of course there are also grenades and mines, and even some large-caliber artillery shells.
These things must be dealt with as soon as possible and properly - civilians have no experience, so the military can only send people to operate them.
All munitions must be escorted to designated locations for blasting and disposed of, and the large holes created by the explosions can also be used to bury pipelines, killing two birds with one stone.
As for the port area, the scene there is even busier - workers there are trying to repair at least one pier as quickly as possible so that transport ships heading north can dock.
No matter what era it is, shipping is the most powerful transport capacity. A transport ship loaded with cement pipes docked has the same transport capacity as hundreds of cars.
Another area that is being repaired is the train station and railway. As long as the railway is open to traffic, the reconstruction speed of Beiyuan City will immediately reach a new level.
There are construction sites everywhere, and there are workers pushing wheelbarrows and two-wheelers everywhere. They refill the rubble into the large pits where the pipes have been laid, and then repeat the work back and forth.
What needs to be done on the other side of the city wall is much simpler. Workers need to clean up all the garbage near the collapsed city wall.
Huge stones and blue bricks will be sent to the port area to be filled into the sea water to build a larger and more advanced wharf.
Several towering cranes have been erected in the city center to build the city's first high-rise buildings.
Cement is sufficient. Datang Group has opened cement plants in many places, and the production technology used is very advanced.
These cement plants and steel mills provided raw materials for the rapid development of Tang State and ensured Tang State's infrastructure needs - when Tang Mo wanted to build tall buildings, he always had cement and steel bars, which was already quite difficult.
It is hard to imagine that this is a city where the fighting has ended, because from time to time there are still explosions and black smoke billowing up, making the construction workers nervous.
Parked military trucks can be seen on the streets, with grenadiers carrying submachine guns on both sides holding cigarettes to maintain order.
They also have a mission, which is to collect various weapons. Including pistols, rifles, bullets, cartridge cases...
Ten cartridge cases are worth one copper coin, one pistol is two silver coins, one rifle is three silver coins, machine guns and gun parts are paid as appropriate.
In short, civilians are very active. Children are looking for bullets and cartridge cases in the ruins, looking for broken gun parts, and even intact rifles.
Of course, they will also find adults and ask them to deal with the rotting corpses next to the weapons they found.
In addition to these light weapons, the Tang Army also had to dedicate manpower to drag heavy weapons such as machine guns, anti-aircraft guns, and cannons.
In addition, the remains of Binghan cars, Gobel cars and other cars that were damaged in the city must also be removed and recycled.
It is a pity that these cars have now been dismantled to the point where they are reduced to mere frames, and the small parts and weak parts have been removed by civilians.
Carload after carload of rice, flour, and canned vegetables were delivered to Bac Yuan City. Food sent from Binh Ninh and Anpu could be directly sent to nearby areas for unloading via railway.
The Tang Kingdom never lacked food, especially when the whole world was ready to spend money to buy aircraft technology, the food embargo became a complete joke.
Before the war, Tang Mo had hoarded a large amount of food in order to stabilize prices and appease people when he took over Qi.
In fact, the situation was much better than Tang Mo expected: when the eldest prince was burning, killing, looting and collecting food in the southern part of Qi, he completely forced the people of Qi to side with Tang.
The disaster in Beiyuan City once again stimulated the people of Qi around it, turning the Tang army from invaders to liberators.
In addition, the Tang army carried out a violent redistribution of wealth in Qi State, and the people of Qi State began to accept the rule of Tang State.
When the special envoys from the Mirage Kingdom arrived in Beiyuan City in a small boat, they saw such a busy and fulfilling scene.
As they drove through the cleared main road, they saw carloads of the rotting corpses of Mirage soldiers being transported outside the city to be burned.
From the corpses, you can clearly see the brown, shit-like military uniforms of the Mirage Kingdom. These corpses are stacked together, and they look like a small Jingguan.
"The warriors of the Mirage Kingdom should not be treated like this." In the car, an envoy from the Mirage Kingdom stared angrily out the window at the car transporting the corpse and said through gritted teeth.
"Lord Mirage Bunshin, now is not the time to consider these things..." The leading Mirage envoy spoke bitterly to reassure his deputy: "We should focus on the overall situation."
"Sir Mirage Wenxin... we, we have really let down so many warriors who fought desperately..." The minister of the Mirage Kingdom named Mirage Wenxin said in pain to his chief officer, Mirage Wenyou.
Mirage Wenyou, who is the Foreign Minister of the Mirage Kingdom, sighed and said: "The life and death of the kingdom are now in the hands of others. We must allow the Mirage Kingdom to continue at all costs. This...is the right choice for death.
The best comfort for our soldiers!”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "You... are right." Mirage Wenxin lowered his head slightly, and when he raised it again, he still looked at them walking in the same direction with reluctance.
The truck that carried the body.
The driver was also a Mirage, otherwise they would not have dared to talk so unscrupulously in the car. The car they were riding in was purchased from the equipment seized by the Tang Army. The Binghan brand cars produced by these dwarves were more suitable for Mirage.
Used by goblins in China.
While other races feel that the cabs of Binghan cars are somewhat cramped, the Mirage goblins feel that the interior space of Binghan cars is good, even a little too big...
When they drive a normal car, they need to modify it and raise the brake accelerator before they can go on the road. Therefore, the Gobel cars purchased by Mirage come with a set of small parts that raise the brake accelerator and clutch.
These Binghan cars are Mirage equipment captured by the Tang Army. The Mirage also paid to purchase them from the Binghan Empire. Now they have to spend another amount of money to purchase them from the Tang Army. It is really ironic to say that the same car,
They actually spent money to buy it twice...
Because these mirage envoys came to seek peace, in other words, to send money, the Tang State did not deliberately create difficulties.
Soon the car stopped next to a small square in the city center. The flower bed was filled with rubble and gravel, and the original appearance was basically unrecognizable.
When they got off the car, the two envoys from the Mirage Kingdom were startled by the tall crane standing nearby. They had never seen such construction machinery before, so they looked up for a long time.
When they came to their senses and withdrew their gaze, they discovered that there was a body hanging next to the city hall they were going to.
The lower body of the corpse was burnt black, and the upper body was naked and covered with scars. The scary thing is that the corpse looked ferocious, and it was obvious that he was still alive when it was burned.
"Mirage Fumixin!" Although his face was extremely distorted and had been burned to the point of losing all moisture, making him no different from a mummy, Mage Fumixin could still recognize his former colleague at a glance.
"These Tang people are really too cruel!" He lowered his voice, fearing that he would be heard by Tang officials who came out not far away to greet them.
At this moment, he only heard that Mirage Musaburo was dead, but did not know how Mirage Saburo died by slicing.
"Welcome to the Tang Kingdom." The leading Tang official looked harmless, making it impossible to connect him with the half-cooked corpse not far behind him.
"Legalistically speaking, this is still a disputed area... Sir! We are here this time to discuss this issue." Mirage Wenyou emphasized.
"Oh?" The officials of the Tang State were not angry, but said, "Based on what you said, Mirage will get an extra 50,000 gold coins during the negotiation."
"You!" Mirage Wenxin wanted to step forward to argue, but was stopped by Mirage Wenxin: "Your country has Beiyuan City in your hands, and you are still so unwilling to give up. I don't think it's too ugly.
Yet?"
"It doesn't matter if you look ugly when you eat, the main thing is to eat to be full." The young official of the Tang Dynasty laughed loudly.
"You have already swallowed it in your mouth, why are you in a hurry?" Mirage literary friend frowned and continued to ask awkwardly.
"You haven't swallowed it yet, have you?" The Tang official raised his eyebrows.
"Alas..." Looking at the confident Tang officials, Mirage literary friends had a strong premonition that this time the peace talks would cause a major hemorrhage in Mirage.
"Don't be so nervous. Differences are differences, and friendship is friendship... The dinner is very sumptuous. I am accompanying the special envoy of the Ice Empire. The dishes are very sumptuous. The special envoy must enjoy himself." The Tang official made an invitation gesture.
, behind it is a street lamp pendant that looks like beef jerky, it looks so weird.
