Chapter 186, The target of the war is the entire Qinggu area!
This is not the first time that the vicious circle in the Qinggu area has occurred.
In the past years, every time a wave of aberration monsters formed, it would lead to a similar situation.
It's just that the wave of monsters in previous years will not last particularly long, and the scale will not be particularly large.
Once the monster wave subsides, the source of the vicious cycle is gone, and things will pick up.
The looters were either wiped out, or they could be laundered and landed on the spot where they occupied, and turned into normal plantations.There are also those who have been looters without washing their hands, but the number will not be too many.
Anyway, when most people have enough to eat, the situation will gradually calm down until the wave of monsters reappears in the second year, and the vicious circle starts again.
In short, in the past many, many years, people in the Qinggu area came here like this.
But the difference this year is that the wave of aberration monsters is too big, not scattered; it lasted too long, almost half a year now, and not only has there been no weakening trend, but it has intensified.
The source of the vicious circle is not weakened, but strengthened, and of course the vicious circle cannot be stopped.
But the problem in the Qinggu area must be resolved.
It is the most important granary of Star Fury, not only to feed the 1000 million people in the Qinggu area itself, but also to deliver food to the central province and the eastern provinces.
If the problems in the Qinggu area are not resolved, it will not only represent the livelihood problems of the 1000 million people above it, but will also cause a large-scale famine on the entire planet.
In the final analysis, this is a population loss that Gu Hang cannot bear.
Population is extremely important, both for productivity and for the regular monthly income in his system.
Only with more people can we raise a stronger industry, support more troops, and provide more gift point income.
This land of grain production and the population of 1000 million people are what Gu Hang will definitely keep.
As early as a few months ago, the league had already taken action on this.
The weapons and equipment purchased by the army, from those of the old alliance legion, to those of the adventurers in the garbage town after they were recruited, were sold in large quantities to the Qinggu area in the south as ammunition.
There is a shortage of ammunition in the Qinggu area. It stands to reason that these bullets, earthen cannons and the like can be sold at a very high price.But under Ossina's instructions, the Union Commerce Department did not do so.When there was a shortage of grain in the early stage, the price was higher. Later, the import of grain in the western desert region increased significantly, and the pressure on grain in the central province was reduced. Instead, the Ministry of Commerce further lowered the price.
Later, even some of the munitions produced in the Weixing City Arsenal were sold to the Qinggu area.
Even a lot of weapons and equipment do not require money, and are provided free of charge in the form of military aid.
Of course, the so-called "no money" basically means wanting everything except money.
Military aid, various types of daily necessities, and aid for consumer goods must all be purposeful and have a strong political attribute.
If it weren't for such a large amount of arms, how would the diplomats, civilian observers, and military observers of the alliance establish the so-called "Green Valley Mutual Aid Committee"?
And this so-called 'Green Valley Mutual Aid Committee' is Gu Hang's preparation for completely ruling the entire Qinggu area in the future.
Many plantations, refugees, and even looters who were willing to put down their guns and wash their hands were taken in.
The 'Mutual Aid Association' allows the plantations to pay food as a protection fee to ensure that refugees and looters will not rob them; organize refugees and looters who are laundered, armed with arms aided and sold by the alliance to form a militia , Patrols, to attack other looters who have not joined the Mutual Aid Association; the militia and patrols will quickly support in place when they receive requests for help from various plantations.If there is a huge wave of monsters that cannot be resisted, at least the people inside can be evacuated alive.
The existence of the mutual aid association has proved to be very effective in the past two months.
This point, within two months, the Mutual Aid Association has rapidly expanded from a small area in the south of the central province owned by the Alliance to a population of 400 million, covering almost The behemoth in the northern part of the entire Green Valley area.
If you really want to say, the population size under the Mutual Aid Association is not far from the main body of the alliance.
To be able to expand so rapidly, in addition to the ability of the alliance's expatriates to handle affairs and the munitions provided are valuable enough, the core point is that the existence of the Mutual Aid Association meets the needs of almost everyone in the northern area of Qinggu.
Refugees have shelter, whitewashed looters have stable food income, and plantations have strong armed foreign aid...
The way Gu Hang looked at the Mutual Aid Association was like looking at a rapidly growing fruit of victory.
When the Mutual Aid Society expands to a certain extent, the alliance army can quickly go south, take the militia and patrols of the Mutual Aid Society, and fully reorganize it, pushing all the way south, flattening the mutated monsters that swept across the central and southern Green Valley.
At the beginning, he was already able to eliminate thousands of aberration monsters with a single infantry battalion, let alone now.
He has more troops, and his weapons and equipment have been updated several times, with powerful long-range firepower, armored forces, and even an air force.
If the aberration monsters are still at their original level, no matter how many there are, there is nothing to be afraid of.
He only needs to wait for the mutual aid president to mature, and the rest is the work of harvesting.
In one wave, Gu Hang will completely bring the entire Qinggu area under control, and it will be as easy as picking something out of a bag.
But now, the news brought by Hu Ke made Gu Hang deeply worried.
The natural salvation society's transformation technology for those aberrations involves supernatural power and demonology, so it cannot be simply viewed as a group of monsters formed by the planet's local environment.
If you use demons as your imaginary enemy...
Gu Hang felt guilty.
To put it bluntly, even the green-skinned clan that hadn't fully developed in the High Tower Province had a hard time fighting against them. If they had to touch demons, traitors from chaos... at least they wouldn't be easier to fight than the green-skinned orcs.
But at this time, it was Hu Ke who was persuading Gu Hang not to worry too much.
"The situation is not so bad that it is irreparable." The new C9 employee of the league comforted the biggest boss and said, "At least half a year in the town of Songers, I only noticed that their skills and Demonology has something to do with it, and I haven't seen any concrete evidence that they have more connections with demons, and I haven't seen demons with my own eyes, so you don't have to worry too much, Governor."
However, at this point, Hu Ke added another sentence: "But our actions may have to be accelerated. After all, no one knows what will happen if we give them more time...even, just Even this year's particularly large-scale wave of aberrations, there is no doubt that it must be the work of the Natural Salvation Society. It's a pity that I have been procrastinating in the past six months without doing what they call "sublimation transformation", a lot of special confidential content, I don't have access to it, so I can't be sure what their purpose is."
Gu Hang nodded, and said: "I understand, you are very grateful for providing the current information. You have worked hard for this period of time, and the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs should have prepared your new residence for you Well, take your family to rest well, the future development of the alliance will depend more on your contribution. As for the Qinggu area..."
After a pause, Gu Hang continued: "I don't intend to change our original plan, but we must speed up."
This is inevitable.
When the enemy's plan is unknown and it is difficult to find a way to investigate, the best way to deal with it is to completely wipe out the enemy with a thunderous force before their actions are fully launched.
Gu Hang did not care about the two technical experts Wu Jiarong and Hu Ke, but made some calculations by himself.
The best solution time is within one month.
The Quintet is still there and won't leave until a month later.Although the starship suffered considerable damage, all weapon systems were still well preserved. The ammunition reserves on the starship were not sufficient, but there were still some, at least enough to carry out an orbital strike on the ground without any problem.
Then, the best solution for Gu Hang at the moment is to do his best to solve the Qinggu problem within one month, while the orbital strike is still there, and physically eliminate that so-called Natural Salvation Society.
If things drag on for a month, and that's missing orbital hits, it's in trouble.
After figuring it out, Gu Hang called his secretary, Zhang Chao, the housekeeper who also came to Fu Xiao Xing with him.
"Send an order to Yan Fangxu to cancel the rest of all troops. All soldiers must be assembled within three days. His troops will leave in three days. The war has begun."
"Yes!" Zhang Chao responded instinctively, and then asked a little puzzled: "But... what is the goal of the war?"
"The entire Qinggu area." Gu Hang said.
...
Jason Morgan feels that since the establishment of the new alliance, his luck has been particularly good.
He was rewarded again for bringing in a top talent for the league.
Kind of dreamy.
The conscience of heaven and earth, he really just hoped to have an excellent doctor to help him solve the problem because he saw that many people among the refugees were infected and died of illness.
As a result, this discovered an engine prophet?
Jason Morgan now understands what the Engine Prophet stands for.
He is now glad that he did not speak rudely at that time, but treated Hu Ke with a respectful and virtuous attitude.
If there are any key technological breakthroughs in the alliance in the future, I will have my own share of the credit!
However, for him, this matter can only be said to be an episode.Although he got a lot of benefits because of this, in the latest communication with the leadership of the Immigration Bureau, the leader also told him that it is a certainty that he will go back to upgrade two levels this time.
Of course he was very happy about this.
However, his leader also reminded him.
"You still have to do your job well."
"I see!"
And what is his real job?
1. Ensure the autumn harvest.
2. Population migration, one of the most important things is to control infectious diseases.
The above two things are what he has been trying to do in the past.
Recently, it has entered autumn, and the main food crops of the major plantations in the northern area of Qinggu have almost reached the harvesting season.
Although the overall harvest this year will definitely not be good, but what can be harvested now must be harvested well.
According to the one-sentence instruction given by the Governor-General: If you collect one more grain now, you may save one person from starving to death in the future.
For this work, Jason is actually running tirelessly among the major plantations, just to see how the grain harvest is going in each place, and to sign future grain purchase contracts with the corresponding plantation owners .
The second job is to continuously migrate people to the central province, especially the Shuangcheng area.
This is the old business, nothing more than the migration of people from other places in the central province to Shuangcheng, but now it is done from the northern part of the Qinggu area.
In terms of population willingness, it is even easier to migrate people from Qinggu to Shuangcheng than to do the same thing in Central Province.
The people here in Qinggu are all refugees, and it is their dream to go to the Shuangcheng area.
However, the complex situation is complicated by infectious diseases.
This is a special situation that was only discovered in the last month.
The infectious disease known as 'abscess disease' is not very lethal, but after the onset, it will cause herpes all over the body, which is very itchy, and the pus after the ulceration is the source of infection.Healthy people can easily become infected after unprotected contact.
Therefore, before migrating people to the central province, people must be quarantined first to ensure safety before they are transported to the rear.In Fuxing City, another isolation observation is needed, and they will not be accommodated in the city until the group is all right.
And Jason Morgan's isolation policy in multiple refuge settlements is not just to see if people are sick or not.
Those who get sick will be transferred to the ward immediately, and then they will be taken care of by medical workers.
Of course, the professionalism of medical staff cannot be expected.
Although the hospital in Shuangcheng has been built for some time, the level of doctors... can only be said to be that.
And in these refugee camps in the northern area of Qinggu, it is even more impossible to have professional doctors.
It is some medical staff recruited on the spot, holding a simple medical manual, and pouring medicines transported from Shuangcheng to the sick people.
But don't say it, the effect is still good.
Among them, the most important role is the drug itself.
The pharmaceutical and chemical factory that has been in production in Fuxing City for some time, the medicines produced are really powerful.
Speaking of analgesia, it really doesn't hurt after eating it—although it may not be able to cure the disease, but it is much more comfortable, the mood is much better, and you can eat, then the body will naturally get more energy to fight the disease .
And some drugs to deal with skin diseases and immune diseases may not be completely symptomatic, but the barefoot doctors take the booklets and feed them according to the standard measurement, which is really useful.
People, sometimes very fragile, but sometimes very tenacious.
There is enough food, there are pain relievers and medicines to relieve symptoms... Even if there is no specific medicine, most people can survive in the end.
The current mortality rate of 'abscess disease' is about 5%-10%.This is a very high number. There are more than 10 people who are currently sick in the refugee camps, which means that tens of thousands of people will die of illness.
It was also because of seeing too many tragedies that after hearing about an excellent doctor, Jason took time out of his busy schedule to recruit Corporal Li Xian——the result was a greater benefit, but that's another story up.
However, Jason Morgan is quite optimistic about the future.
As those temporarily recruited medical staff and barefoot doctors have more and more experience in treating abscesses, no matter how stupid people are, they can also summarize some objective laws, which can further optimize the medication and the process of caring for patients.
And, soon a new medical manual printed with the words 'Fuxing City Research Institute' was issued to him, which explained in detail how to treat patients with abscess disease and what the symptoms of each stage are like , how to change the medication plan corresponding to the transition stage; the specific method of isolation; confirming the symbol of the patient's recovery...
This manual is much more reliable than the 'barefoot manual' they used before.
He knew that this new researcher was actually presided over by Mr. Hu Ke whom he 'recruited'.
He was relieved.
Although, I misunderstood before, it turned out that Mr. Hu was not a doctor; but in fact, he played a greater role than a mere doctor.
All in all, with more experience among the medical staff and the new treatment manual from Renaissance City Institute, things are bound to get better.
In addition to the two tasks of autumn harvest and abscess disease, he has just received news that he has a new job:
Cooperate with the Central Group Army that has already gone south, cooperate with the military observers of the Mutual Aid Association, and assemble the militia on the spot.All militia regiments should then be placed under the command of Brigadier General Yan Fangxu of the Central Army and be dispatched by the headquarters.
Moreover, the Mutual Aid Association should also mobilize all plantations to supply food to the army on the spot after the autumn harvest is completed, as part of the supplies going south.
He has already sent relevant notices to various places through the system of mutual aid associations.
However, implementation has not been ideal.
The decision-making body of the mutual aid committee is the committee meeting.And these so-called committee members are basically served by large plantation owners who still maintain order, and a small part are served by former looters leaders who have been laundered and today's militia chiefs.
None of the officials of the alliance is a formal committee member, basically serving as an observer.
When the mutual aid association was established, it was to dispel the vigilance of those plantation owners and militia leaders.
Originally, they still had time to slowly dissolve the power of the Mutual Aid Association, but the sudden advance action of the alliance headquarters broke their plan.
The current plantation owners and militia chiefs are still very powerful, both in terms of influence and actual power.
And a considerable number of people are against the alliance's comprehensive southward movement.
Today, the Mutual Aid Committee has become a mess.
Jason Morgan has to fix that.
