Chapter 164: New Immigrants Arrive

He successfully used his prestige to appease the discontent of the Ten Soldiers. Chen Jiannian's work on the resettlement of the second batch of foreign immigrants and foreign prisoners of war.

As early as when Jian Chen was still in Baildes, Empress Catherine had already carried out the second immigration work according to his request, and after a long journey, the total number of foreign immigrants and more than 3,000 foreign prisoners of war finally arrived in Hammondale on this day.

In this group of interracial immigrants. The racial composition can be described as quite complicated, and Empress Catherine sent a large number of people to gather these foreign subjects from all over the country, and all of them were sent to Hammondale to be handed over to Jian Chen.

Although the Queen's policy of racial integration was met with strong opposition from all sides, the relocation went unexpectedly smoothly. Except for some lieges who are reluctant to give up alien slaves in their realms who can be heavily exploited. The move to the rest of the empire was met with an enthusiastic response.

The reason for this. In the final analysis, it is caused by the attitude of the imperial people to reject the aliens, so that these aliens who have long been disliked by them can get out of the place where they live, and many people are clapping and cheering.

As for what will happen to these aliens when they arrive in Hammondale, no one cares, and it would be a great thing to let them go anyway.

It can be said that most of the aliens were driven away from their homes by the local humans.

It is not a simple matter to move so many aliens, unlike the halfling people who move nearby, on the long road, many old and weak people die of exhaustion, even if Queen Catherine has made a lot of special arrangements for this. It is inevitable that such a tragic situation will occur.

On the way from the Empire to Hammondale, there were an unknown number of fallen aliens, and these unfortunate aliens were hastily buried in a wasteland not far from the road. Not even a tombstone.

At the time of departure, the total number of alien immigrants was more than 24,000, and by the time they arrived at Hammondal, their number was reduced by a third.

This situation undoubtedly caused a strong antipathy among the aliens towards the Empire, and some of the aliens who had lost their loved ones even hated the Empire because of it.

If it weren't for the army escorting them all the way, I am afraid that a riot would have already occurred.

Empress Catherine was not happy with this situation, but the situation in the empire already made her no choice.

Before the new racial policy could be implemented, there was strong opposition from all sides, and Queen Catherine had to start re-examining the feasibility of her plan.

If you insist on going your own way despite the opposition of all parties. She knew very well what the consequences would be, and the empire at this time could not afford such consequences.

That said, she had to choose a different strategy.

The rejection of aliens in the empire was on the verge of exploding, and with the considerable pressure she was under from the new racial policies at the time, these aliens would only become a highly destabilizing factor in the empire if they remained in their original place of residence.

Moving all the aliens away, at least it can make the empire relatively stable, avoid greater turmoil caused by ethnic conflicts, and then be used by some people with intentions, and eventually endanger the rule of the empire, and at the same time, it can also ease the rejection of the human people to a certain extent and stabilize people's hearts.

Reassure most of the people first, let the situation stabilize, and then seek a solution

She firmly believes that as long as Chen Jian can make some achievements in Hammondale and set a good example, the new racial policy will definitely be implemented one day.

Now she can only wait patiently, in this waiting process, the necessary pain is inevitable, the long pain is better than the short pain, although doing so now will arouse the hostility of the aliens towards the empire, but she thinks that Chen Jian will not let her down, and she also believes that Chen Jian's methods will definitely succeed in appeasing these alien immigrants in the end.

To this end, she even planned to allocate another sum from the imperial treasury to support the construction of Hammondal, which she had already decided. Even if it's burning money in Hammondale, it's going to take care of it.

And taking a step back, if this plan really can't be implemented, then it would not be a good thing to move these aliens to Hammondale for centralized management, and what to do at that time can only be seen.

But what Empress Catherine didn't expect was that Ji Li couldn't keep up with the changes, and the sudden return of Roland put her in dire straits, coupled with the huge threat from outside the empire, there was not much time left for her.

With his first experience, Chen Jian was not very busy receiving these alien immigrants, not to mention that he had an expert like Kosai to help.

Tired, hungry, and terrified, these alien migrants gathered in a large clearing in the New Town, waiting in order for the local lords to settle them.

For this reception, Kosai organized a large group of men, and also carried out a period of training, at this time, the field was maintained by the soldiers, and the order was quite good.

What surprised these alien immigrants was. This strange place was not as harsh as they imagined, and the local lords did not seem to be hostile to them, and there were many non-human races among the crowd watching the excitement on the side, and many of the imposing Imperial soldiers in fine steel armor were aliens.

"Oh my God! That's Medusa! Medusa of the Negans".

"Look! Bridge Monster! Those tall guys are really bridge monsters! Look at that face under their helmet! ”

"Hey, look, there's some dwarven soldiers out there! How is this going on? ”

"Centaurs, I see centaurs!"

"Big-eared monsters, there's big-eared monsters mixed in with the soldiers! Look at their faces! You can't go wrong! ”

"Did you notice, there are a lot of halflings in the crowd! It's the halflings who like to mess around! ”

All kinds of suppressed exclamations rose and fell in the crowd, and the entire alien immigrant group was buzzing with discussion.

By this time, the alien immigrants had all fainted, and they really couldn't figure out if the place they had come to was still in the territory of the Erathian Empire.

What happened next made these alien immigrants even more surprised.

Delicious portions of food were handed to them, and these delicacies from the hands of halfling chefs gave these alien immigrants a good meal.

This kind of food is not available even in their own homes.

They were then ordered to begin the distinction by ethnicity and began to line up to accept arrangements to move into their new home. The most abundant are the wolf-headed monsters and lizardmen. Because Titalia used to have a bad nail. , so many swamp dwellers migrated to the territory of the empire during that time, and it continues to this day.

The second is the big-eared monster and the spirit, and there are the other halflings who have fled into the empire

Although there are some miscellaneous races, they are quite scarce.

These races were placed in different locations by Kosai according to their habits

The Wereaurs and Lizardfolk were originally swamp dwellers and liked damp and watery conditions like the Thor, so they were arranged to be neighbors with the Thor.

Halflings are the best to deal with. Hammondale already had a large number of halflings, so he just arranged them together.

Big-eared monsters and goblins don't have any special requirements for living conditions, so they are scattered around the new town of Harmony.

Under the guidance of the pre-arranged personnel and the escort of the army, these alien immigrants began to disperse and live in their new homes, and then they found that the conditions of their new homes were quite good, completely different from their previous residences, and such a high level of treatment made these alien immigrants who thought that they would suffer a lot in the local area were very unprepared, and then a little panicked.

It is terrible to go from heaven to hell, but it is also difficult for people to accept being thrown from hell to heaven.

It is worth mentioning. On the walls of their new homes, they were all written with a pen in a conspicuous place.

This is the latest Hammondale Local Ordinance issued by Chen Jian.

It was a fairly simple decree, the first of which was that the authority of the lord was sacrosanct.

But the most striking statute is not this one.

Article 4 of the Act states that in Hammondal, all subjects shall be treated equally and shall have the same rights and duties without distinction as to race.

This one came as a surprise to the new alien lords, on the other side of the Empire. No lord would have issued such a decree.

Even the Erathian Empire itself did not publicly issue such a decree.

At the end of this decree, which is written on the wall, there are also reminders and instructions.

From these words, the new alien lords identified one thing, the land called Hammondal. It is indeed inhabited by Thor trolls and halflings.

What kind of place is this, where even a man-eating monster like the Thor troll can coexist peacefully with humans and halflings?

The alien lords are confused.

"My lord, the resettlement of the immigrants has been completed, and as far as the current situation is concerned, there is no sign of a commotion!" Kesai, who was almost tired, was sweating and reported his work to Jian Chen. Spring is coming to an end, summer is slowly approaching, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter day by day.

Jian Chen nodded. He affirmed the work of his old friend: "You have worked hard, but you still can't let your guard down, and your focus during this period of time is to reassure these new immigrants and try to avoid any accidents." If you need any supplies and help, just ask, as long as you can successfully appease these aliens who have accumulated considerable resentment because of the Great Migration. You're a great achievement! ”

"I see, my lord! However, I think the most important thing now is to let them have a suitable means of livelihood is the most important, blind charity can only have a short-term effect, let them live and work in peace and contentment is the means of long-term stability! ”

Kesai's words were nodded in agreement by Jian Chen: "Yes, you have to worry a little more about this matter, or that sentence, what kind of help do you need, just ask!" ”

Got rid of the alien immigrants. Jian Chen turned his head to the half-elf Pete: "What about those alien prisoners of war?" ”

The half-elf replied: "They are very honest, lord, like the last batch, their physical condition is not very good, even if they want to make trouble, they can't make trouble, but because there are too many people, it took a lot of effort, but nothing happened!" ”

Deal with these things. Jian Chen returned to his tent, opened the box and took out the one. The magic teleportation array used to communicate with the empress is ready to report to the empress on the resettlement of immigrants.

When he also wrote the letter and opened the teleportation, he unexpectedly found that a letter from the empress had been transmitted first. And the emergency sign marked on the letter made Chen Jian feel a premonition that something big was about to happen.

Hurriedly opening the letter, Jian Chen couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

According to reliable intelligence. The Kerrigan of the Ofer Kingdom are plotting to craft a terrible weapon that they hope will use to achieve their evil goals of destroying the world.

The Empress anticipates that Offer may soon launch a full-scale war against the Erathia Empire, so she hopes that Jian Chen and Mrak will put aside their old suspicions and work together to defend Hammondal, a strategic location that the Empire has won so hard, and help consolidate the Empire's eastern defenses.

The Empress also hinted in the letter. If necessary, Chen Jian must take on the responsibility commensurate with his abilities, and take over from Mrak for a brief time during the war, so that Mlak can take a break from other wars.

However, this is just an assumption, and the empress also knows that Jian Chen's identity is too sensitive, and she said that if this situation really happens, she will give another order to the two of them.

For this reason, Chen Jian was also required to send a special person to guard the letter transmission array, so as not to delay the military situation.

The thought of cooperating with Mrak, who was trying to be unfavorable to him, Chen Jian was on fire in his belly, and he had been muttering in his heart for a few days why Empress Catherine had not punished Mlak and Bremer for a long time, but he didn't expect things to develop to such a point.

If you really want to break out into a war set. When employing people, the empress will definitely not give Mlak anything, maybe she will have to reuse it greatly, thinking of this relationship, Chen Jian couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

And the Kerrigans want to destroy the world? This statement Chen Jian feels a little too shocking, how can Ou Fu say that it is also a country, saying that a certain madman psychopath wants to destroy the world Chen Jian believes, but it is incredible that a country and a race want to destroy the world.

Where did this Empress of Intelligence come from? That's outrageous, isn't it? Jian Chen shook his head again and again.

Just as he was confused, a soldier hurriedly walked in and reported to Jian Chen: "Your Excellency, Count Mlak has sent someone over, saying that you are invited to go to Fort Werning immediately to discuss important military affairs!" ”
