The so-called Gaoshan Ridge is actually a ridge in Piaya Mountain to the west of Lingao County. Piaya Mountain has six main peaks, standing on the northern plain of Lingao. The six ridges of Piaya Mountain in the northwest are far away from the Beibu Gulf, which is a perfect match made in heaven and earth.
It is a natural barrier in the southeast, overlooking villages, towns and fields within dozens of miles. It is an important strategic location of Lingao. On the westward ridge of Piye Mountain, there was a coastal defense fort in the Qing Dynasty, and artillery fire could control the Lingao angle.
The sea area around Xinying Port and Danxian Paipu Port. In 1950, the Kuomintang defenders also set up artillery positions on the Westbound Ridge as the focus of coastal defense.
After the liberation of Hainan Island, the People's Liberation Army also stationed artillery troops in the Piyeshan area, and the station was located on Mopan Ridge, one of the six ridges.
"From Lingao County to Gaoshanling - that is, in the Piye Mountain area, the mileage of modern roads is only 3 to 4 kilometers - which is still an area close to our main base. The mass base of Damei Village established after the elimination of Goujiazhuang is quite
Yes. If Damei Village is upgraded to Damei Commune, some immigrants are moved there to enrich the strength of this area, and an infantry company is sent there, it can be quite consolidated. In this way, we will form a barrier in the west. No enemy can directly
Launched an attack on Bairen City." He Ming, the People's Commissar of Military Affairs, evaluated the benefits of opening a branch in the Piye Mountains at the Executive Committee meeting.
"But will this cause us to have too many strongholds and disperse our strength?" Wen Desi expressed concern. The size of the army has not expanded much, and there seem to be more and more places to fortify. Nan Bao and Ma Niao now rely on the militia to protect themselves.
, this kind of militia is pretty good at dealing with bandits. If they encounter the Ming army, they will probably disband immediately.
"No." He Ming pointed to the large-scale full map of Lingao hanging on the wall - the accuracy of this map is unique in this time and space. It was re-mapping and revised based on the map data of modern time and space.
of.
"The so-called defense does not mean that gathering troops in one place is the best defense." He Ming explained, "For effective defense, we must control the key points on the periphery."
By controlling the Piye Mountain area, a northwest defense line was established for Bairen City, which not only blocked the Ming army's attack route from Danzhou, but also set up forts on the westward ridge to strengthen the defense strength of Bobu Port.
"Our current form is a long snake formation," He Ming's instruction stick slid along the Wenlan River. "From Bopu to Nanbao, it is a lined up situation. If someone blocks you from the side, you will be stuck.
If the communication line is cut off, the entire strategic situation will be very passive..."
"Well, I don't think there is any army in this time and space that can do such a thing as cutting off our lines of communication..."
"I think it can still be done. Don't talk too much." He Ming was more mature and prudent, "Have any of you really seen the combat capabilities of the Air Force at this time?"
In addition to fighting pirates, bandits and local braves, the "New Army" and the Ming Army, the Eight Banners and the "rogue bandits" trained by the Cross-Travel Group have never really seen a battle. Mini rifles and queue-up shooting tactics
Whether it can be invincible has not been truly tested.
"As long as a few dozen riders rush onto our roads, kill one person, and hijack an ox cart, traffic will be disrupted. We will have to prepare escort forces for each transport team."
Everyone knows the consequences once this situation occurs. The first is the interruption of the supply of raw materials. Bairencheng, an emerging industrial city, relies on the continuous delivery of industrial raw materials from Bopu and Nanbao to maintain production. The second is
The farms developed along the Wenlan River will be greatly damaged. The crops are no better than factories and can be defended with cannons and city walls.
"What we want to defend now is the 'face', not the 'point' in the past. This idea must be changed in time. To control Quan Lingao, we can't succeed just by occupying the Tiaowenlan River Basin." He Ming said.
To defend the area, we must gradually control the strategic points on the periphery and lead the area with points. Basement of the Viya mountainous area is one of them.
He Ming's explanation made the original doubts disappear. Ma Qianzhu struck while the iron was hot and made a report on the next development plan of Lingao, which is the so-called "Little Cross Road Plan".
In the development history of Hainan Island, starting from the Song Dynasty, some people proposed to open a "Grand Cross Road" across the entire island. The so-called Grand Cross Road is to open up two main roads running north-south and east-west on the basis of the post roads surrounding the entire island, traversing the island.
The entire Hainan Island not only greatly shortens the land journey, but also strengthens the government's control and development of the hinterland of Hainan Island.
However, this idea has never been realized since the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Yuan Dynasty army once arrived at the foot of Wuzhishan Mountain and set up a monument as a record, but finally returned to the coastal areas. In the Ming Dynasty, roads were built all the way to the foot of Limu Mountain in the hinterland of Hainan Island.
After crossing the water, there were thousands of households in the city, but it stopped there.
The Chuanchuan Group's follow-up plan for Hainan Island includes a new version of the "big crossroad" plan, and the executive committee is currently working on a small crossroad plan in Lingao. The central idea is to strengthen the crossroads for the entire county through the construction of crossroads.
actual control.
With good roads, whether it is the circulation of materials and personnel, the implementation of government orders or the mobilization of the army, it will become very convenient. The strong control power of the modern state over the grassroots and the people is precisely based on good roads and communication networks.
on the basis of.
The small crossroad plan not only involves the control of the entire county, but also the political, economic and industrial layout planning of Lingao County by Chuanchuan Group. It is the highlight of the first five-year plan. Its scale is second only to Wenlan River
Comprehensive watershed management.
The small cross road plan has a certain foundation. At present, the north-south road across Lingao has been opened. The highway extends from Bopu to Nanbao. From point to line to the three bases of Bopu, Bairen and Nanbao
It not only divides the entire Lingao County into two, but also controls the most suitable land for development on both sides of the Wenlan River, including the county seat. It also actually controls Lingao County. This north-south trunk road not only directly runs from
Passing in front of the Wenshui Bridge outside the east gate, the Cross-Crossing Group also took advantage of the Tiandihui's lease of the school land to build a branch road to the west gate. Shan Daoqian's next plan is to build a ring road for the county seat - although this ring road is only a few meters long.
It's only a hundred meters, but it can completely control the villages and land around the county.
Originally, the Chuanchuan Group set up a gun tower to monitor the county seat by the Wenshui Bridge, directly monitoring the east gate. Now it has set up a school farm outside the west gate, and indirectly controls the west gate. For a city as small as Lingao, the east gate
The gate and west gate are controlled, the south gate is completely within sight, but the north gate does not exist, and the entire county is completely visible.
Wu De plans to use the blockhouse outside the east gate as the core to resettle dozens of immigrants and form a new fortified settlement. On the one hand, it will monitor the county seat, and on the other hand, it will also protect the middle point of the crossroads of the county seat - Lingao County.
With its geographical advantages, it is the best crossroad intersection in the "Small Crossroad Plan". The future status given to Lingao County by Chuanchuan Group is "the county's transportation hub and cargo distribution center". In the future, it plans to set up a large-scale
oxcart freight center. For this purpose, some land nearby has been purchased as pasture for cattle.
In the longer-term plan, a large-scale transportation transfer center will be built beside the Wenshui Bridge, consisting of a train station, a long-distance bus station, and an inland shipping terminal on the Wenlan River. Passengers and goods coming to Lingao will be transported here.
Complete the collection and distribution to all Lingao and even various regions in Hainan.
The highway through the county extends southward to Nanbao. The setting up of Nanbao Town not only allows access to various resources in Nanbao Mountain District, but also opens up the connection with Lingao Li District. It can make trade with Li District more convenient.
, carry out various economic, cultural and religious infiltrations in order to completely eliminate potential unrest factors in the Lebanese region.
The positioning of Nanbao by Chuanchuan Group is: "the window for trade in Li District and the supplier of mining and forestry products". As for Bairencheng, it is the "manufacturing center and political and military center". Bopu is the "shipping industry, foreign trade
Industrial and chemical center”.
After taking control of Nanbao, Chuanchuan Group will also formally establish a fourth commune in the Calais area north of Nanbao: Calais Commune. Calais Ocean is one of the four major farmlands in Lingao and is an important agricultural area in modern Lingao.
The level of development in this time and space is very low. According to a survey by the Committee of Agriculture, because it is close to Li District, there are very few farmers. It is easier to develop it in a concentrated area.
Wu Nanhai plans to open a farm and set up an immigration point in Calais once the development of Meitaiyang is completed. This area will be built into an agricultural area directly under the jurisdiction of the Crossing Group.
The current road condition of the Nanbao-County City-Bairencheng-Bopu Highway is that the road surface hardening between Bopu-Bairencheng has been completed, and wired telephone and power transmission poles have been built along the road. The supporting facilities are complete. Bairencheng-County City
In this section, the road surface hardening is still in progress, but the simple road conditions are in good condition.
The worst is the route from the county seat to Nanbao. Due to the hasty opening and the fact that it was repeatedly run over by a large number of heavy-duty oxcarts soon after its opening, the road surface was seriously damaged. The transportation department spent a lot of manpower and material resources on maintaining the road surface.
In his report to the Executive Committee, Shan Daoqian clearly pointed out that either the hardening work on this section should be started immediately, or rail transit should be laid immediately. With such a large amount of cargo being transported at present, rail transit, although a large investment, will be used for a long time.
The cost is low.
In the east-west direction, the Crossing Group established Damei Village on its original site after the Gou family was eliminated in the Gaoshanling area to the east. There is Yanchang Village in the Mayao Peninsula area to the west. Currently, there is a simple link between Damei Village and Lingao County.
It is accessible by road. Because of the salt production in Ma Niao, there was a stone road in Bopu in the old days, but the condition was not good. Therefore, ships are basically used to transport salt.
