Rom, you saw how those outposts were positioned – even with a whole chain, it would take about 3 days to capture them, so I gave up. There was nothing to take the second outpost with, and waiting for the third one felt risky. I decided to go for an earlier route to the village area, and I actually got lucky – it took me 1 day to get there on the rough road, while it probably took you 4 days on that main road.
This isn't a criticism of you – you played well and got the most out of it. I'm just annoyed at the map generator:D

Alex was the first to say that the map generation is terrible, when it generated a map with 0.0(0) chance of winning against a Chinese player. It all depends on luck, which isn't right.
