Chapter 1314: Counting and Taking Inventory, Two Parallel Lines!

Since Liehu had pointed out the problem, Su Mo was unwilling to pretend to be ignorant.

Although the problems Liehu mentioned had not caused any obvious impact, any normal person would understand that three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang.

Reputation brings benefits, not a burden.

If this unhealthy model continues for a long time, the final collapse will probably start from the inside.

Now is indeed the time to make a change.

Of course, the change will not affect the upcoming dwarf campaign.

At this point, the battle has been drawn, the mobilization has been completed, and the supplies have begun to be transported to the front line in batches.

Even if the attack on the dwarves is finally abandoned, it is meaningful to treat it as an exercise.

Hearing that Su Mo still intends to implement the plan, he can try to "revolt" Ji Wuming before that.

If it fails and the news is leaked, then the war plan will be terminated.

Liehu breathed a sigh of relief and readily agreed to the task.

"Don't worry, I have a lot of experience in this kind of thing. I guarantee that he will confess as long as he is a normal person!"

He is not good at front-line assaults, but interrogating a few people is one of his strengths.

As the first battle after joining the Tianyuan Territory.

"Let's talk about more after this battle. After all, I am not good at managing shelters. You have to learn from that old fox Aldridge.

Prepare a boat for me. I will only take 500 people first. We will set off in the afternoon at the latest!"

He knew that his strong and coercive management method was not applicable to the current Tianyuan Territory.

Or his own management method also had big problems.

So after raising a few obvious questions, Liehu didn't say anything more and continued to nag.

"Okay, I will equip your people with the most advanced weapons and equipment at present, I can guarantee this."

"That's great, I've been waiting for you to say this."

Hearing this, Liehu's heart was lifted, and he left excitedly.

Until the big bald head disappeared at the end of his sight, Su Mo raised his head and looked at the material shipment again, and then he thought about it and got the result.

As far as the current situation is concerned, there is no need to rush to deal with the problem of one-man rule.

This kind of absolute control is actually positive in the early stage of the territory.

Just like now, once a problem is discovered, he only needs to change his mind, and there is no need to worry about the trouble of turning the ship around.

If the power is decentralized rashly, there will be a lot of things to coordinate at that time.

According to the development context of the future ruins.

In Su Mo's preliminary estimate, the real need to deal with the population of Tianyuan territory must reach more than one million, with at least three county towns, six towns and twelve villages.

By then, these several settlements have formed a certain scale, and it is appropriate to delegate power and implement a separate management system to stimulate each other to compete and allocate resources.

What really needs to be urgently solved at present is actually the confusion in the focus of the territory during its development.

Not only in terms of industrial development, but also in terms of territory development, and even in the external part.

Almost all things related to development have not been completely prioritized.

This is very clear from the piles of projects in the research institute.

Although everyone is doing the projects they like and are good at, the progress is also gratifying.

But the key problem is that some projects are not very meaningful now?

For example, studying the increase in crop yields seems to be an important project related to the future.

But actually think about it the other way around.

In the future, if the land cultivation area cannot be expanded, or if there is a disaster of three cold springs for farming.

Can the increased production share really solve the problem completely?

For example, the new recruits in the barracks have no combat effectiveness, which is actually a problem of focus.

In recent times, in order to expand the army, even Su Deben has been trapped in the barracks and cannot go out.

If we can focus on training a small number of combat-capable veterans first, why would this dwarf battle be so difficult?

"It seems that I have to think about it carefully. Developing some things may not make any sense at all. It will only waste time and opportunities."

As long as there is a possibility, he doesn't want to miss this dwarf battle.

After all, whether it is the rewards for limited-time tasks or the rewards for campaign tasks, both are too tempting.

If you can get it, the development of the territory can be accelerated by a lot.

With this in mind, Su Mo left the dock with a steady pace, without showing any abnormality to the outside world.

However, as soon as he got on the car, the car sped towards the underground city like an arrow from a bow.

As soon as he returned to the office, Su Mo told the guards not to disturb him, and immediately started to count the existing resources.

The so-called mystery of the authorities is clear to the bystanders.

After being reminded by Liehu to jump out of the previous thinking errors, some problems that he had not realized were all revealed.

Industry, agriculture, infrastructure, armed forces, and population.

Su Mo carefully examined the five important dimensions of the territory. As the key to driving the operation of the old machine of Tianyuan Territory, every detail is like a precise gear, tightly meshed together, and a single hair moves the whole body.

"Zero, I need you to help me count all the current factory categories and list a detailed overview according to the classification." Su Mo gave an order to the small cube on the table.

The small cube still floating in the air received the order and turned quickly.

After a few seconds, a detailed report was projected on the wall.

At a glance, Su Mo immediately thought that it was true.

Due to the extensive contact with the mole man in Qinggang City in the past six months, the factories that have sprung up in Longteng Village are basically oriented towards small industries.

In this wasteland full of unknowns, survival itself is a battle with danger. Small industries can only meet some basic living needs and cannot provide sufficient military support and strategic materials.

Once attacked by hostile forces or other emergencies, it will not be of any help at all.

Secondly, over-reliance on small industries will also limit the economic development potential of the territory.

Although the wasteland is dangerous, it also contains endless opportunities.

Even a behemoth like Hu Lai City has sent many expeditions to explore the opportunities in this new continent, but he relied on some of the knowledge he learned from going to the future ruins and rashly underestimated the potential that other places may have.

This kind of cognition has also had a very serious impact on the development direction of the territory.

No one wanted to leave for the outside adventure, and almost all of them focused on dealing with the mole guys.

Furthermore, the development of small industries is often accompanied by environmental pollution and resource waste. The problems caused by environmental pollution are not serious now, but resource waste is too fatal!

"I completely overlooked one point, but fortunately it is not too late now."

"The wasteland is originally a place where the weak are preyed on by the strong, and constant annexation and plunder are the main theme."

"As long as the natural disasters continue for a day, the plunder of resources cannot be ignored!"

Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat millet.

The territory was united in thinking about trading with the major territories, continuing to develop industry and overall strength, but Su Mo forgot a very important thing.

"I'm trading a hammer, wouldn't it be better to just move all the people and the land here?"

The merchant ship with countless supplies left the port and went to the surrounding territories to sell and trade.

It seems to be a resource trade, which has brought trade prosperity to the territory.

But then again, according to the current capabilities of these territories, can they stop the invasion of Tianyuan Territory?

If the lord is not convinced, then change the lord.

If someone disobeys, just beat him with sticks and drive him away.

Under the current situation, ordinary people are eager to come to Tianyuan Territory, how can they refuse such a good thing.

"No wonder the military strategy says that kindness cannot command the army, and righteousness cannot command wealth. I have both of them."

"When playing Civilization 6, I can't wait to burst the troops and go out to grab resources, why are you so hesitant in reality?"

Su Mo slapped his thigh in anger.

If Liehu hadn't come to remind him today, he really couldn't figure out what stupid thing he was doing now.

Spend a lot of money to train new soldiers, and then be afraid of causing casualties?

Damn, what the hell is this training, wouldn't it be better to just recruit the defense teams of other human territories in the New World?

The soldiers of Tianyuan Territory have never been on the battlefield and lack practical experience, but the defense teams of ordinary human territories are not like that!

Although there is no large-scale war between humans and alien races, small frictions have never stopped.

Humans want to plunder supplies from aliens, and aliens want to take advantage of humans in return.

In addition, due to the impact of disasters in recent times, the situation is bound to be not peaceful.

As long as a group of combatants with rich combat experience can be gathered from them, it is not too easy to form the Tianyuan Army.

Why do we need to tie Su Deben tightly in the barracks for training? How much resources can he bring back every day?

Thinking of this, Su Mo remembered that it seemed that Mengyue Territory had sent a message for help a few days ago.

It’s just that the distance between the two is too far. Even if you go directly from the central to the south by water, there are nearly 6,000 kilometers of water.

This distance is enough to dissuade him from any previous idea of ​​wanting to support. It’s too troublesome to make a trip to trade!

However, after turning this corner in his mind, Su Mo seemed to have an epiphany.

Why should I bring supplies to support Mengyue Territory?

Wouldn’t it be better if I moved all the people and pots back to Tianyuan Territory?

There are nearly 200,000 people there, which is enough to be twice the current territory.

It is not right to use a cargo ship. If it is for carrying people, it can be expanded.

If a cargo ship can carry 1,500 people, only 50 ships are needed for three round trips.

6,000 kilometers

The energy stone engine currently loaded on the cargo ship in the territory is slightly weaker than that of the warship, and can push the ship forward about 700 kilometers a day.

It takes about 17 days to go back and forth for 12,000 kilometers.

It only takes one and a half months to move nearly 200,000 people in Mengyue Territory back.

"Fuck, this is too much money. It is more meaningful to directly rob people than to trade some junk materials."

"The current Tianyuan Territory is no longer afraid of a large number of people coming over. What am I still hesitating about these days?"

After taking stock of the problems encountered, a feeling of enlightenment came to Su Mo's heart.

Cool.

There are search and rescue teams on land to rob people, and transport ships on the water to collect refugees.

Two lines are parallel, are you still worried that you will not be able to gather a million people by the end of the year?

At the same time, following this line of thought, developing small industries would be even more stupid.

If the current situation had been foreseen, some industries for rescue transportation and some technologies for plundering resources from abroad should have been developed.

As long as we can gather a large number of people, it will be the same as opening Fengling Yueying.

If all 100,000 people are sent to the assembly line, the output in one day will be more than the current half a month.

"As for agriculture"

If you understand one thought, all thoughts will be understood.

At present, the Earth players don't really care about their living environment.

For them, as long as there is a place to shelter from the wind and rain, food that can barely fill their stomachs, and no fear of external threats, that's enough.

The arable land of Tianyuan Territory can't accommodate so many people to cultivate.

But what if we create another sub-base across the river, and open a few more small accounts around Qinggang City?

Anyway, the territories can be annexed, and it will not affect the future development of Tianyuan Territory at all.

Around a center outward, a lot of land is unowned land, which can be opened up for cultivation.

If we persist until an autumn harvest, we can expand the current storage scale by hundreds of times, which is enough to cope with the material crisis that may be encountered in the next few years.

"Explode troops, this is the charm of explode troops!"

"As long as you can survive the initial cost of explode troops, almost all the benefits will come later."

Thinking about how I always put myself on a high moral level and wanted to play this "game" in a normal mode.

Although Su Mo felt a little stupid, he didn't feel any regrets.

Any decision is a double-edged sword.

It is this style of behavior that has created the "Su God" in the mouths of the survivors.

Now that his reputation has stabilized, he really needs black and white gloves to do such dirty work.

He himself does not need to show up to make decisions, and any consequences caused only need to be borne by others.

Even if someone still holds on to it afterwards, it cannot really shake the solid position he has won before.

"Call Feng Long over, I have something important to tell him to do."

"And Qiao Yuansheng, forget it, call all the people who attended the last meeting."

After giving orders to Zero, Su Mo stared at the report on the wall with burning eyes, and more and more ideas came to his mind.

Not only the Mengyue Territory that has already sent out a request for help, not only the territories that have been in contact in the past few days, such as the Red Flower Gang that just left and the other three territories.

Even the giant tree roots that were forced to migrate should be able to be closed in now.

There were a full two million people gathered there before, even if there are only 500,000 left now due to migration, it is definitely a living force that cannot be ignored.

If these people can be gathered and a large number of talents can be collected from them, why worry about Tianyuan not prospering?

Think about it, Lu Kuan was still saying last night that the research institute was short of manpower and it would take some time to analyze the purchased technology.

If thousands of people can be squeezed in, the progress of the day will probably be full!
