Throne of Vientiane Civilization

The opening of this railway directly connects the central area of ​​Black Moon City with the Northeast region, making the transportation efficiency between the two places soar like a rocket.

Originally, starting from Black Moon City, even a small-scale cavalry team would take at least a week to reach the Northeast border.

If it were a transport team, affected by the overall transportation efficiency, this time would be further extended.

Now, with the steam train, it only takes three days to get from Black Moon City to the Northeast border! This actual improvement in transportation efficiency is more than just doubling?

For the Northeast construction project that is being carried out vigorously, this is undoubtedly a huge help, enough to greatly speed up the development efficiency of the entire Northeast region.

Although the construction scale of the southern region is larger in the current Da Zhou, everyone knows that the entire development focus of the Da Zhou has now tilted towards the Northeast region.

In fact, this is indeed a wise choice.

Whether considering the external coalition forces and greenskins, or the internal environment and train transportation factors of the Northeast region, the development priority of the Northeast region is now higher.

As for the southern region, it is also developing and constructing at a leisurely pace.

But the problems facing the area have been mentioned before. The land is large and there are many troubles. The entire plan has to be changed every now and then, which has caused many engineering teams to delay construction.

There is nothing wrong with properly adjusting the focus, putting the troubles aside, and doing what can be done first.

Today's Northeast region has become lively all of a sudden, and Zhou Xu has not been idle recently, after their Great Zhou's '001' steam train was officially put into use.

With the completion of this major project, a large number of laborers who were originally invested in the laying of railway tracks were also freed up all of a sudden.

Zhou Xu did not intend to let them idle. In fact, as early as before the completion of the 001 steam train, Zhou Xu had already begun to think about where to arrange the second steam train.

For this problem, he had two choices in his mind.

One is to arrange it to the New South District and the New North District.

The most significant effect of connecting these two districts is that it can greatly improve the support efficiency for the plain fortress.

If the plain fortress in the New North District is attacked by the greenskins again, if there is a steam train in the New South District, how fast the entire support efficiency will be, there is no need to say more.

The second is to arrange it for the southern region. There is no need to say more about the development projects in the southern region.

If you want to be rich, build roads first!

Building railways is better!

Once the southern region successfully opens a railway, the entire development efficiency will inevitably be greatly improved.

Of these two options, the former focuses on military support, and the impact on the development of the two regions is not very large.

Because Zhou Xu had already developed the New South District and the New North District in the early days, now most of their Great Zhou’s labor force is in the southern region and the northeastern region, and there will be no major projects in the New South District and the New North District in the short term.

The focus of the latter is undoubtedly completely concentrated on development and construction, and the border line of the southern border has been pushed to the sea.

Once a war breaks out and unidentified ships are found, their Great Zhou’s naval fleet will immediately intercept them outside the border line.

In other words, even if a war breaks out, it will be a naval war. The inland army has not received any relevant training and has no warships. How much use can it be in a naval war?

Not to mention that after solving the problem of the ratmen, the southern border has been peaceful for many years.

In this way, unlike the Northeast region, which can promote development and provide military support, Zhou Xu can only choose one of the two in the next choice.

Zhou Xu thought about it and finally chose the southern border!

After all, it is a peaceful time now, and his focus must be on development and construction.

As for the plain fortress in the New North District...

To be honest, after the dwarves in the Copperforge strengthened the blockade, Shi Lei could handle the small greenskin troops that could sneak in, and he was not under much pressure.

Instead of adding icing on the cake for the New North District, it is better to go to the southern region to provide timely assistance.

In this way, this new project was established early. As soon as the railway in Black Moon City was completed, after giving the staff a few days off and rewarding them, the entire railway engineering team immediately moved to the southern region.

Zhou Xu had already considered the railway route in the southern region.

There was no need to start from Black Moon City.

Starting from Black Moon City, although the railways in the two regions could be connected together to form a larger railway network, it was actually not necessary at present.

According to Zhou Xu's idea, the engineering team went directly to the southern border factory area to set up a factory railway station, and started laying the railway from there, all the way from the rain forest area to the southern border.

Because there is a waterway from Black Moon City to there.

Instead of laying the railway from the grassland area, the waterway is the shortest route. Their cargo ships depart from the Black Moon Port and go downstream. It only takes two hours to reach the factory port.

After unloading the goods at the port, the goods are transferred to the railway station which is also located in the factory area and can be immediately sent to the southern region.

The factory area itself is even an area where factories are clustered, producing a large amount of construction resources for the southern region.

After this railway plan, Zhou Xu will definitely develop the factory area vigorously, add more production plants, and expand the scale of the factories to make the output efficiency of the factories here higher.

At that time, the resources produced by the factories in the factory area can be directly sent to the train and transported to the construction site as soon as they leave the factory. The main feature is high efficiency.

Apart from this situation, the factory area is connected to Qingshui Lake, and Qingshui Lake is connected to Green Forest Port in addition to Black Moon Port!

Behind Green Forest Port is the New South District!

Once the railway is opened in the factory area, most of the areas of their Great Zhou can be connected by water and rail!

Let the population, troops, and materials of each region be efficiently transferred!

At this moment, the entire transportation plan of water and land for their Great Zhou in the next ten or even dozens of years has become clearer in Zhou Xu's mind.

This feeling of ideas flowing like a spring made Zhou Xu lose interest in doing other things all of a sudden, and he devoted himself to the planning of the entire route.

He didn't feel relieved until he finished planning the entire route and felt satisfied.

During this period, the temperature in Black Moon City gradually rose, and quietly, it had completely entered the midsummer season.

On this day, in the early morning, a child's cry broke the tranquility of the Summer Palace. The child in Yalvette's belly was born that night!
