Chapter 242: Population Robbery (II)

"Daddy, can we go?"

"I don't know ......"

For most of the people who make a living from farming, they all have the same characteristics - they love home, or their homeland is difficult to leave, they are unwilling to leave the land where they were born and raised, and leave the place where their ancestors have lived for generations, as if they have broken their roots, if there is no other thing to influence, they will never leave their hometown in this life.

The influence of external factors must make them make a choice, whether to look for hope of life far from their hometown or wait for death in their hometown, most of the time people choose life rather than death, and they can continue to pass on their ancestry while they are alive, and there is nothing left when they die.

Among them, natural disasters and wars are the two biggest factors affecting the choices of ordinary people.

Not long after the natural disasters passed, think about the time when the great drought came, grain production in many areas was reduced, and in a few serious areas, the harvest was even lost, and the people who had no food to eat could only leave their hometowns and go to the city to find hope for life.

The war is about to affect this side, and they who don't know much about the Illuminati think that the Illuminati are all evil under the propaganda of well-intentioned people. Teach demons, devour people's flesh and drink people's blood, burn and loot, do all kinds of evil, if you don't leave, you will die, before the arrival of the people of the Yun Clan's shipyard fleet, the people of these villages close to the sea don't know where they should flee to avoid the war, there is no deep mountain and old forest here that can stop the Bright Army.

Now a life of hope is in front of them, a small group of people quickly make the right choice, and then more people make choices.

"Villagers who are willing to go go back and pack up their salutes, we will set off after two teas, the road is farther, it is recommended that the villagers do not bring too many useless things, and do not bring too much food, we will provide food to the villagers, and the villagers will not be hungry." Li Tun shouted loudly.

Hearing the sound, the people who had already made up their minds to leave turned around and went home to pack their bags, maybe they would never come back to this line.

Cai Tianxin, who was standing next to Li Tunchang, was surprised by the scene in front of him, he and his teammates had come to this village together to persuade the villagers to leave with them, so to put it mildly, there were no villagers to take care of them, why did these villagers agree to leave as soon as Li Tunchang came?

After thinking about it for a while, Cai Tianxin, who was an internal member of Xunfeng, guessed what was going on, mainly because the two of them couldn't give these villagers a sense of trust, and as soon as Li Tunchang came with dozens of heavily armed soldiers, the villagers could naturally tell that these soldiers were not ordinary people, and the villagers were willing to believe in these soldiers, and they would not believe the two of them, who knew what was going on with these two people.

After two tea times, there are more than 100 villagers with large bags and small rolls gathered at the head of the village, all the people in Xujiazhuang are gathered here, but not all of them have to leave, the old people in Xujiazhuang want to continue to stay in Xujiazhuang, they are old, they don't know how long they can live, and they can't walk far, it is better to stay in Xujiazhuang, even if they die, they will die in this land that gave birth to them.

"Son, you must live well and inherit the family for our old Xu family."

"Dad, I know, woo."

"Child, if you have the opportunity in the future, you must come back to see, this is where our ancestors have lived for generations."

"Dad, mother, let's go with my son."

……

Relatives are always painful, Li Tunchang, Cai Tianxin and others all turned their heads and didn't want to see this scene, others may not understand, Cai Tianxin definitely knows more about the Bright Sect than others, the Bright Sect is not an evil. Teach demons, they will not eat human flesh and drink human blood, on the contrary, the people are better under the rule of the Illuminati than under the rule of the Huang Clan, at least the Illuminati will not oppress the common people, and it will be able to keep the common people from starving.

Cai Tianxin can't tell these truths, although this is a bit cruel, but it is better for ordinary people to be able to live in the land under the rule of the Yun clan than to live in this place that is about to be invaded by war.

"Folks, let's go."

Under the escort of nearly fifty soldiers, more than 130 people in Xujiazhuang marched towards the south, and some people in the team were puzzled, the south was the sea, why did they go south?

Thinking about it, but no one said it, so many soldiers would never deceive them, ordinary people, even if they did, they couldn't resist.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the procession was about to reach the beach, and the common people exclaimed for the three "behemoths" on the sea.

The villagers live in villages close to the sea, and they also know some things about the sea from the old people, and some villagers stop and don't want to go any further, the sea is off-limits, and they don't want to enter the sea.

In the face of these people who were unwilling to continue walking, Li Tunchang used both soft and hard measures, telling the villagers that they came from the sea, and the sea was not dangerous, and for a small number of people who persuaded them not to move, the soldiers directly took out knives and guns, and threatened them with death.

Yun Yong felt that the efficiency of the two teams to "grab people" was still too low, so he directly transferred dozens of people from the fleet to go down, divided the two teams into four teams, and the two members of the wind search guided the two teams to go to a village respectively, and the four teams acted at the same time, and the speed of "grabbing people" accelerated.

The No. 1 Land Fleet consisted of three steamers, one 3,200-material Qianzi-class steamer, and two 2,100-material Linzi-class steamers, and at the time of departure, the three steamers were fully loaded with fuel, which was enough for the fleet to travel more than 8,000 miles, and in addition to fuel, the three steamers were loaded with only two kinds of cargo, grain and fresh water.

A Linzi-class steamship can carry at least 500 people at a time (not counting its own crew), and a Qianzi-class steamship can transport at least 1,000 people at a time, this is because each passenger on the ship has a certain space to prevent epidemics, if you don't care about the degree of crowding, that Linzi-class steamer can carry thousands of people, but such a ship is not much different from the slave trading ship in Yunyi's memory, and less than one-third of the black slaves on each slave ship can finally reach their destination alive, which is not what Yunyi wants, they are people, Not a slave, what Yunyi needs is to send everyone to Yingzhou completely.

In the evening, the first land fleet was already full of passengers, but the first land fleet was not familiar with the sea here, and could not sail at night, so it had to wait until the early morning of the next day to depart.

An hour and a half later, the first fleet stopped at a small island called Qiqu Island off the coast of Hengzhou, which was discovered by the exploration fleet of the Yun Ship Administration earlier, and now there is a simple wharf on the island, which can accommodate three ships at a time, and there are a large number of wooden houses on the island for people to live temporarily.

The task of the first land fleet is to send the people of Hengzhou from Hengzhou to Qiqu Island, and the task of sending these people from Qiqu Island to Yingzhou will be completed by other fleets, for which Yun's shipyard will also mobilize three fleets to carry out this task, so that the fleet between Yunhua County and Yingzhou will be reduced to two, and the task of exploring unknown waters will also be temporarily suspended.

In addition, in order to take care of these people in Hengzhou, the fleet carrying out the mission from Qiqu Island to Yingzhou will have two opportunities to stop at the island to rest on the way.
