Chapter 1096: Dispatch of Troops
Due to the extreme shortage of labor at the construction site on Zhifu Island, the first batch of immigrants to arrive in the local area did not arrange the so-called quarantine observation period, Sun Changmi immediately began to arrange for these people to be assigned to various construction sites, all the men over the age of 14 were requisitioned as laborers, while the women and the elderly were assigned to logistics units, responsible for relatively light work such as laundry and cooking. The food and clothes that these people eat next on Zhifu Island, as well as other living conditions that they can enjoy, are all out of Haihan's pockets, and naturally they can't be raised in vain.
The migrants were relieved about this arrangement, because they had already learned from the propagandists about the arrangements after arriving on Zhifu Island, and it was reasonable to exchange their labor for a relatively safe and stable living environment. The fact that Haihan did not ask them to sell themselves as slaves and maids, and was willing to provide food, shelter, and protection, which was already considered a great mercy, after all, even the local government that they once trusted and relied on the most could hardly provide the same living conditions.
Of course, there is another very important reason, that is, these immigrants have witnessed with their own eyes how the Haihan people easily defeated the Wanjia army that was powerful in Fushan County with fewer enemies and more enemies. In the current situation where the local government and garrison are obviously weak, the strength of this foreign force can obviously bring them more security. Moreover, the Haihan army was decisive in killing, and almost all the bandits who were mixed with the immigrants were executed decisively without delay, and this measure also caused a great psychological shock to some people who were uncertain.
Those who were escorted back to Zhifu Island as prisoners of war were treated much worse. They will be assigned to go to the dock construction site, at least half of the day at the end of the day to soak in the sea, Haihan himself is arranged to operate in shifts, but after changing this batch of prisoners of war, they will probably be allowed to stand in the sea water to the end. The bitter taste of the upper body peeling and the lower body peeling, they will feel it next.
Some of these prisoners of war may also be innocent and forced to fall into the grass, but in this situation, no one will have the leisure to distinguish whose net worth is Qin Bai and who is full of evil, and they will all be dealt with as bandits. Whether they can leave the camp and start their lives again in the future can only be determined by hoping that their lives are hard enough to survive this period of heavy physical labor.
Rather than housing these immigrants and prisoners of war, several military bigwigs are now focusing on the resistance that Haihan encountered in the county seat of Fushan. Before they came to Shandong, they expected that their main opponent would be the Ming army stationed in Dengzhou, but they did not expect that the first to jump out and oppose them was actually the local bandits. Moreover, according to the analysis of the information currently available, this armed force is still quite influential in Fushan County, at least so that the county seat and the garrison of the local guard station have no way to deal with them, and even deliberately avoid its edge, pretending to be deaf and dumb about its behavior in many fish and meat towns.
Why did this bandit army jump out to play the role of a stumbling block, the answer is actually very obvious, after all, relying on the mountains and relying on the water to eat the water, Fushan County has such a small population, if it is recruited by the Haihan in large numbers and then transported away, then the ten thousand troops naturally cannot turn a blind eye, otherwise in the future, it is likely that these bandits will have to be forced to put down their swords and guns, take up their hoes, and go to the wasteland to farm to support themselves.
"These people have a fundamental conflict of interest with us!" Wang Tom sighed: "If the population of Fushan County continues to flow out in large numbers, these bandits will either change careers and become farmers in the end, or they will have to fight elsewhere, like the peasant army in the Central Plains, wandering around and plundering." ”
"Why doesn't the local government intervene?" asked Chen Yixin curiously. He had only just arrived from the construction site after receiving news of the meeting, and he didn't know much about what had happened.
Qian Tiandun explained: "According to our understanding, there are not many garrisons in Fushan County, and even self-protection is a problem, and there is no way to take these 10,000 troops. They probably didn't have anything better to do than sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. ”
Hao Wanqing said: "But it stands to reason that after encountering this kind of pressure, the Fushan County Ya should ask for help from the nearest Qishan Qianhu, and this Qianhu surnamed Feng should not make any trouble with us." ”
"Probably not. Qian Tiandun shook his head and said: "The knowledge that should be seen has also been given to him, and the benefits that should be given have also been given to him. ”
As for the real situation of the Qishan Qianhu Station, through the interrogation of the Ming army prisoners in Yantai Mountain, the Haihan military has already mastered the basic information, and it is indeed difficult for this small stronghold of several hundred people to create trouble for the Zhifu Island base, where the defense line is gradually forming. Even if Feng Fei led all the men and horses under his command to rush into battle, he probably wouldn't even be able to cross the Shazhou defense line. If Feng Fei wanted to mobilize reinforcements from other guard cities to make a big scene, it was not something that could be done in a short period of time, and it was difficult to avoid the monitoring measures on Haihan's side during the assembly process. In fact, Qian Tiandun thought that it was very unlikely that Qishan would insist on working against Haihan, because it was too risky and of no benefit to him, as long as Feng Fei's mind was not broken, he would not make such a stupid decision.
"Then you mean that we can concentrate on dealing with this Wanjia army first?" Hao Wanqing asked.
"That's right. Qian Tiandun nodded and said, "Since the conflict of interest is irreconcilable, there is only a safe option to eliminate them." I suggest that we continue to increase our troops moderately in the direction of Fushan County and maintain a high-pressure posture against the Wanjia Army. If they're going to take a gamble, send them on their way. ”
"More than 500 laborers were sent today, which is just enough for you to draw out some of your troops and put them elsewhere!" Wang Tom smiled and exposed Qian Tiandun's purpose.
Qian Tiandun did not deny this, and changed the topic to Ha Lugong and asked: "There are still two cavalry companies under your command to the west of the Jiahe River, can you temporarily assign them to us for command?"
Ha Lugong was probably still unhappy about the injury to the two horsemen, and said with a dark face: "The command is assigned to you, but I hope that I can try to avoid causing unnecessary casualties to myself during the battle." ”
Qian Tiandun joked: "Okay, then let your cavalry troops sweep behind at that time!"
Ha Lugong's eyes were round and he said: "If the cavalry does not charge ahead, which gate will be plundered!"
"What if I hurt your people, I can't afford to pay for it!" Qian Tiandun continued to quip.
