Chapter 12 Shillong Construction

The county town, which had been in trouble for nearly a night, finally calmed down by dawn. The people in the city who were worried for a night seemed cautious when they opened the door in the early morning. The people who stayed at home were not sure about what happened last night.

The only thing I know is that last night the city was chaotic gunshots, and guns and cannons were heard outside the city. When the gunshots stopped, people could still hear walking and scolding in the city. The people did not know what happened.

Fortunately for the people in the city, there was such a big disturbance last night that the people in the city were not harmed. When they opened their doors and walked to the street, they found that the street was also very quiet. But the people were still full of curiosity about what happened last night.

When the people came to the city gate and looked at the cleaned battlefield, the still remaining bloody smell made many people afraid to see each other. Some people who got up early talked about the bloody scene they had seen before.

Oh my God! You didn’t see it. Last night, there was a river of blood outside the city. Thousands of bandits were planning to attack the city, but they were defeated by Captain Qin and his subordinates. Hundreds of bandits died. Early in the morning, those who joined the army were still consolidating their bodies and digging holes to bury people!

Li Laosan, are you bragging? We Shillong, are there thousands of bandits?

If you don’t believe it, you will know that there are many newly dug pits there, and the beheaded bandits were buried in it. There are also hundreds of bandits who were detained in the city. You will know that when you go and see it!

The people who told about what happened last night seemed to be afraid that others would suspect that they were telling lies, so they hurriedly explained. When they heard that hundreds of bandits were imprisoned in the city, many people ran back to the city and looked at the detained bandits.

Given that there are a lot of bandits detained, the county government's prison will definitely not be able to hold it. After overnight construction, Hu Biao temporarily built an open-air prison around the open space where he sold goods in the previous period, detaining all the captured bandits.

There were officers and soldiers from the task force outside guarding it, and the bandits who were already unarmed naturally could not escape. In a short period of time, these bandits would be detained in a temporary prison and accepted the labor reform punishment given by Hu Biao.

After solving the local tyrants like Zhou Shuo, Hu Biao still lived in the county government with low profile and began to discuss the construction of Shilong with Zhu Chengzong and Qin Tianyou. The most urgent thing to do at present is to expand the military camp and city defense, and build more houses that can live in.

Faced with Hu Biao's decision, Zhu Chengzong also said directly: General, the manpower should be enough at present, and there is not much material to build these houses. If the city defense is built, can it be put aside first?

Yes! In two days, the Southern Jiangsu Assault Camp will arrive. They came here and brought a lot of supplies needed to build a house. What I mean is that the hospital and school must be built first, and the military camp must be expanded as soon as possible.

OK! Then I will find someone to choose tomorrow!

As the new Xilong County Magistrate, Zhu Chengzong was also full of expectations for Hu Biao's development plan. He also wanted to see what this poor and deserted county would look like in the future after Hu Biao's planning and arrangement.

Lao Qin, you are responsible for the expansion of the military camp. In the future, at most one battalion's troops will be placed in the city, and the rest of the troops must be stationed outside the city. The location of the military camp outside the city and the airport location should also be selected as soon as possible.

In this situation, if you want to transport materials here in large quantities, you can only transport them by air transportation. The various materials and equipment we purchase can be continuously transported. It is particularly important to choose the airport site.

Another thing to note is that no less than five large air raid shelters must be built in the expanded county town. Although the Japanese will not focus on this place for a short period of time, we must make preparations in advance and let the people do corresponding air raids.

If the house is blown up, it will take some time to repair it. But if our people are blown away, it will not be found. We must emphasize the importance of air defense to the people. Only by practicing more often in daily life and encountering air strikes can we minimize casualties.

clear!

We are preparing to carry out construction in Shillong, and it is possible not to be noticed by the Japanese for a short time, and it is almost impossible to hide it for a long time. Once the Japanese army launches a combat plan to invade Guizhou, Shillong, a remote small town, will inevitably be targeted by the Japanese army.

Making corresponding preparations in advance and putting some important factories in the mountains outside the city can also effectively reduce losses. Hu Biao has already prepared for the construction of the airport. However, he still needs to go on the spot.

As a member of the special forces serving in the Southwest in his previous life, Hu Biao has visited many unknown secret bases. These secret bases are hidden in the mountains without exception. If they are not close, it is difficult to find the secret bases hidden therein.

After arranging what to do next, Hu Biao also said in time: Chengzong, in the name of the county government, will summon the village chiefs of the ten townships and eight villages to the city to discuss matters. In the case of summoning migrant workers, they must also listen to their opinions.

OK! But I heard that there are several villages in Shillong that seem to be inconsistent with the government?

It's normal! Although Shilong has changed its territory and returned to the current situation, many villages still retain their original lifestyle. For them, they are not willing to deal with people outside the mountain. Most importantly, they have suffered a lot of losses from government officials before.

Do you still remember what I said to you when I came? As county magistrates, they are also the people under your rule, and you must keep your treatment equally. While respecting their traditions and customs, try to improve their lives and let them feel the sincerity of the government.

People's hearts are full of flesh, who doesn't want to live a good life? As long as they get real benefits and know that the government is sincerely doing things for them, they will also support the government and maintain your authority here!

I understand! I understand!

Logically speaking, when the new county magistrate takes office, the subordinate chief and the village chief under his command need to come over to greet him. But what is surprising is that this situation has not happened. It has to be said that the situation of the imperial power not going to the countryside is extremely serious here.

But Hu Biao believed that the news spread last night, and those rural chiefs who defected to Zhou Shuo also had to consider the consequences of being liquidated. As for the leaders of the villages, the county government sent someone to post a note, which would probably give Zhu Chengzong some face.

As long as those leaders are not stupid, they know that the new county magistrate and the security team are not easy to mess with. Thousands of bandits gathered in the crowd were dealt with by the security team. Their townships and villages also need to consider the consequences of annoying Zhu Chengzong, the new county magistrate.

Through the previous market, the reconnaissance team has figured out the situation of some surrounding villages and villages. Overall, there are not many villages that are truly isolated from the world. However, there are still some villages, and the scale cannot be underestimated.

Most of these villages, mainly minorities, are relatively united or even connected. Whenever there is anything, the village leader will come out whenever he speaks. He lives in the mountains for many years, and these villages are very tough!

To resolve the potential threat of the land management, Zhu Chengzong began to post notices in the city and at the gate of the city in the name of the county magistrate. In order to let more people know about the new policy of the county government, Zhu Chengzong also asked the sentry to read it, trying his best to let more people know the content of the notice.

Build a hospital? There is a doctor in the treatment of illness. What is the hospital built? Even if the school is built, there are not many babies who can study, right? Recruiting craftsmen and civilians will not act as coolies again, right? This new county magistrate has so many ideas!

Various discussions were made public with the notice. When the famous carpenters and bricklayers in the city were invited to the county government office one after another, they all said happily: The county magistrate said, "I have paid for your work. If you don't have money, then give me food and cloth!"

With the first batch of profiteers, more and more people took the initiative to find work to do it later. Some abandoned land in the city quickly became construction sites, and the stones and trees cut out of the people were transported into the city one after another.

After those waiting and watching the village chief and the county magistrate Zhu Chengzong, most of them received orders from the county government. These orders made many village chiefs and village chiefs worried. When they saw the benefits, many people couldn't sit still.

The village chief, the county government really pays wages every day. As long as you work hard, you can get two kilograms of rice and serve two meals!

Although the rice is not much, it is enough to take two kilograms of rice home, which is enough for a family of three to save two or three days! Besides, you will give rice after work and never give it back. Those who were suspicious before were completely worried when they saw the second horse team entering the city.

As Lei Xiong brought a carefully selected assault camp, Hu Biao's available troops had reached nearly a thousand. Even if there were still people who wanted to make trouble, they had to consider the consequences of angering these nearly a thousand elite soldiers.

After a few days of searching, Hu Biao finally arrived in a valley about 30 miles outside Xilong City. Looking at this valley, Hu Biao smiled and said: Lao Qin, what do you think of this place?

It’s okay! Is our airport built here? The project should be quite large!

It is not small to build it! Do you see the cave at the end of the valley? Just level the cave and our plane can be dragged into the cave and hidden. This valley can be used as an airport runway if it is slightly flattened, and anti-aircraft guns are arranged on both sides of the valley.

Even if the Japanese broke the runway in the future, they would not be able to blow up our plane. The most important thing is that this is a concave valley. You only need to build fortifications at the entrance. If outsiders want to touch it, they will be very difficult.

Looking at the valley in front of him, Hu Biao seemed extremely excited. The reason is very simple. This was a secret airport in his previous life. In this life, Hu Biao hopes to transform it in advance so that he can try his best to find some familiar feelings in his previous life.

In addition to building an airport in the valley, Hu Biao also planned to dispatch a regiment of troops here. On the other side of the valley, Hu Biao knew that there were many natural caves there, so he would place some factories in it.

Not far from the valley, there is a river with a large amount of water. Hu Biao plans to build a hydropower station by then. In this way, the airport and factory use electricity should not be a big problem. How could Hu Biao miss such a treasure land!

According to Hu Biao's plan, with the county town as the center, around the county town, about one regiment was deployed. Some factories were built near the troops station to attract more people to work in the factory to improve their lives.

Even if he encounters an enemy attack in the future, it is almost impossible to destroy Hu Biao's foundation in a short period of time. Relying on Shillong, the rear base camp, Hu Biao can continue to expand his tentacles outward and finally complete his idea of ​​striving for the southwest!
