Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1669: Laying the Groundwork First

The wedding date was quickly set for the following spring.

Jarvit also stated that she would undergo the trials after her marriage, as she could not guarantee how long the trials would take.

Before that, as the queen of the female warrior race, she also had many things to deal with.

Early contact and in-depth cooperation had given the female warriors a deep understanding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The two sides had always gotten along well, and even before this, they could be considered practically family.

The fact that he was an unofficial member of the Great Zhou was not something that could be said casually.

The foundation laid in previous years has made the work proceed exceptionally smoothly, and the submission of the female warrior tribe was successfully completed this winter.

In recent years, with the help of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the total population of the female warrior tribe has grown at a rate far exceeding that of previous years. When they finally submitted to the Zhou, the total population had reached nearly 70,000.

Don't underestimate this number; the blood of the God of War flows in the veins of the female warriors.

A grown female warrior's physical abilities are such that she can directly confront a giant green-skinned man head-on.

Moreover, they are smarter than the big green guys and know how to cooperate.

With just a little training, they can become an elite force.

If you give them some intensity, training them into an elite team is not a problem.

During this period, the territory of the female warrior tribe was also officially incorporated into the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Only at this moment did they finally catch a glimpse of the entire territory of the female warrior race.

They originally thought that the territory of the female warrior tribe consisted only of a jungle, and that the city of Mystila lay deep within the jungle.

But that's not actually the case. The ring of mountains surrounding the jungle actually belongs to the territory of the female warrior tribe, who have outposts and camps inside the mountains.

At the same time, there are also many primitive tribes in the mountains where they roam freely, mainly for their reproduction.

By the way, beyond these mountains lies the Kingdom of Smith.

Aside from the fact that the mountain road was difficult to travel, it was surprisingly a 'shortcut'.

Of course, for ordinary troops, this 'shortcut' may not be any less strenuous than taking the long way around.

Returning to the issue of primitive tribes, it was clearly inappropriate to let the female warrior tribe continue doing this after they had officially submitted to the Great Zhou.

This sounds outrageous to ordinary people. Culture is a very important part of a country, and the female warrior tribe is considered a bad habit, which is obviously not conducive to long-term development.

Zhou Xu had already considered this issue when he first established a cooperative relationship with the female warrior race and learned about this situation.

Zhou Xu is the kind of person who always thinks three steps ahead, five steps ahead, and ten steps ahead.

Regardless of whether it's possible in the future, let's lay the groundwork first, otherwise there wouldn't be Zhou Ye and Sigurd.

The fact that Jarvitt submitted so readily this time was undoubtedly influenced by the presence of their two children.

With contact between the two countries and relatively frequent cooperation, their respective cultures will inevitably influence each other.

In this respect, Da Zhou Chun Chun is simply providing output in one direction.

Over the years, it would be a lie to say that the female warriors were not affected at all.

The men of their Great Zhou Dynasty are clearly superior to the tribesmen.

With frequent exchanges and prolonged contact between the two sides, some pleasant things have indeed happened.

Over time, the female warriors no longer found some of the customs of the Great Zhou Dynasty strange and gradually developed an awareness of adapting to local customs.

Regarding this matter, Zhou Xu took the opportunity to briefly discuss it with Yarvit, and the two sides quickly reached a consensus. The female warriors should honestly get married and have children, and stop trying to solve their offspring problem through hunting.

The resolution of this issue has made it much easier for relevant departments to plan subsequent development initiatives.

A rough plan was quickly drafted and presented to Zhou Xu.

In this situation, the northeastern fortresses are most affected.

The nature of the Northeast Fortress is similar to that of the original Plain Fortress.

Geographically speaking, this fortress doesn't actually have any geographical advantages. The reason there's a fortress there is simply because it's on the border of their Great Zhou Dynasty.

In this situation, as the territory expands, the fortress will soon lose its value.

In this regard, the approach is much the same as that used for the plains fortress.

However, the difference is that a city can be built here in the Northeast Fortress area.

The Northeast region has always been the smallest area of ​​the Great Zhou Dynasty. Beyond the grassland pass, the entire region consists of only one oil town, which is not even large enough to be considered a city.

Even this so-called oil town is essentially a large oil refinery, mainly used for extracting and refining oil.

The town's facilities, even the shops, were mainly for the oil refinery workers and their families.

Incidentally, the soldiers of the Northeast Fortress would occasionally take a break and stroll around the town's market.

Later, they developed close cooperation and trade with the female warrior tribe, and the female warriors who occasionally came over also became part of their customer traffic.

However, this does not change the fact that the town is still small in size and has a small population.

As it stands, Zhou Xu has no plans to upgrade the oil town.

To put it bluntly, he intended to use this oil town as a large oil refinery, and he didn't plan to have too many people gather near the oil field.

If a city must be built in this region, then the Northeast Fortress, which is about to be abolished, would undoubtedly be a good choice.

The outer perimeter of the Northeast Fortress is a vast plain, the battlefield where the female warrior tribe and the green-skinned army once fought!
Previously, the female warrior tribe had not submitted, and that land was used as a buffer zone.

Now that the two sides are family, there is no need for a buffer zone.

It would be a real shame not to use such a suitable plain, with such a large surrounding land area, to build a city.

With more time invested, this area has the potential to become a megacity.

The only problem is that it's too close to Blackmoon City, the capital. This entire region will definitely develop with Blackmoon City as its economic center.

However, this does not mean that the city is hopeless. According to Zhou Xu's idea, he plans to develop the city into a future industrial metropolis, just like Huangsha City in the new South District.

In recent years, due to the widespread adoption of steam power, Blackmoon City was the first to benefit from this upgrade.

While industrial production capacity has increased significantly, it has also brought about huge environmental pollution problems.

Before this, Blackmoon City was a city nestled against mountains and by water, where life was comfortable and the people were extremely happy.

Whenever the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty mention Black Moon City, they feel a longing for it.

However, with the acceleration of industrial development, environmental pollution problems have suddenly come to the forefront of Zhou Xu's mind.

As a modern person, Zhou Xu quickly took this issue to heart.

Zhou Xu's current idea is to concentrate all the industrial production chains in the region into one city on a large scale.

At this stage, if we want to develop, pollution is unavoidable. At the very least, we should concentrate the pollution in one place so that it can be treated in a centralized manner!
