Chapter 1016 Understanding the situation
Ma Ziqiang is not stupid. Ma Ziqiang's IQ is still OK to rely on his own strength to climb to the position of Qianhu. Therefore, he knew very clearly why he would become the commander of the Left Acropolis.
Ma Ziqiang was not concerned about this, and even made a secret decision in his heart to make these people who wanted to treat him as a scapegoat, so that they could know that Ma Ziqiang was not the one who could be slaughtered by them.
Therefore, as soon as he took office, Ma Ziqiang devoted himself to the matter of resettling refugees.
At the beginning, some mistakes did occur, but soon Ma Ziqiang got started. Relying on the ability to lead troops trained in the army, Ma Ziqiang directly separated all the refugees and formed different teams. What he needed to do next was to lead the troops of these small teams.
As a result, the effect was unexpectedly good. All refugees were placed. Although some problems occurred in the middle, they were all solved quickly.
Seeing this, those people in Linsha City who originally wanted to watch Ma Ziqiang's show had their eyes all over the floor, and they thought they were dreaming in their hearts.
Yu Deen recruited Ma Ziqiang again at that time. As the governor, he could see Ma Ziqiang's ability, but unfortunately, Ma Ziqiang refused. A person like Yu Deen was not worthy of his loyalty.
After Ma Ziqiang refused this time, although Yu Deen got angry once and said more than once that he wanted to deal with Ma Ziqiang, he still had no rest in the end.
Yu Deen is not a fool. He is very unhappy in his heart. Ma Ziqiang wants to kill him directly, but he knows that he still can't live without Ma Ziqiang.
As time goes by, the number of refugees from Qingzhou is increasing. As the number is approaching 600,000, and the increase has not yet been seen. In addition, the people under his command do not have the ability to resettle those refugees, or do not want to participate in this matter. Therefore, under Yu Deen's command, only Ma Ziqiang can do this well.
Therefore, even if Yu Deen was very upset, Ma Ziqiang, he had to bear it now.
If he kills Ma Ziqiang, who will manage those refugees?
Ma Ziqiang also knew this matter very well, so he was not afraid of Yu De'en, but also, he could repay as much as the materials for resettlement of refugees. In order to appease those refugees, Yu De'en had to endure the amount of supplies he had.
Some people will ask here that the sandbank is not a continent with production, and it can even be said to be a continent with shortage of food. So why do these refugees come here? Why don’t they go to other continents?
If you go to those continents, it is better than half of the land in the sandbanks, which are semi-arid and semi-desert areas.
The reason is actually very simple, and it has been mentioned earlier.
As mentioned earlier, in order to prevent the troops from other continents from coming to Qingzhou to encircle and suppress them, the rebels in Qingzhou drove a large number of refugees into these continents.
Although the economic conditions here in Shazhou are not very good, it is the front line to resist the barbarians and the front line to the periphery of 100,000 mountains. Therefore, the number of troops and military strength here in Shazhou are stronger than other continents.
Especially here there is an extremely powerful White Elephant Legion. Therefore, it can be said that the military threats of sandbanks are much stronger than those of other continents.
Therefore, the rebels in Qingzhou rushed most of the refugees to the sandbank.
As for whether these refugees are willing or not, haha, under the threat of swords and guns, there is no room for them to bargain.
What's more, many refugees in Qingzhou are actually willing to come to Shazhou.
Why?
Because there are powerful troops here that can protect their lives and safety, even if they know that it is difficult to survive in Shazhou, many refugees still choose to come to Shazhou.
After experiencing the tragedy of war, what many people yearn for the most is safety. As long as they can live safely, no matter how much they make, they are willing.
Isn’t there an old saying: harsh policies are more powerful than tigers!
It tells the story of Confucius//Zi and disciple Zi/When passing by Tai//Shan, they met a woman with a miserable life experience.
The local tiger is seriously affected, but because there are harsh tyranny of the monarchs in other places, she and her relatives would rather live here all the time, so that later many people, together with her relatives, were also bitten to death by the tiger, leaving her alone crying at the grave of her relatives.
Why does this woman's family still live here even though they know that there are tigers here? This is because the tyranny of the ruler is more terrifying than the tiger that cannibalize.
The same thoughts were also found in the minds of these refugees in Qingzhou. Life here is more difficult, but at least there is no need to worry about the rebel army that appears from time to time, there is no need to worry about the sudden disappearance of their lives, nor about the sudden arrest of their families by the rebels.
It is precisely for these reasons that the number of refugees here in Shazhou is increasing.
Ma Ziqiang felt very fond of Lin Ze, so he said to Lin Ze with a smile: "Sir, I have arranged a place for you to stay and rest in the city, and at the same time arranged the best restaurant to welcome you to the adults."
Lin Ze looked at the other party and said with a smile: "General Ma's kindness is hard to refuse. Logically speaking, I should accept it. However, the disaster is like fire now, so General Ma, I cannot accept your kindness now. Let's do this. After I understand the disaster here, I will invite General Ma to dinner."
Lin Ze had already collected the specific information about Ma Ziqiang. Lin Ze was very interested in Ma Ziqiang's ability to not accept Yu Deen's recruitment.
In addition, his ability to securely accommodate so many refugees is enough to prove that Ma Ziqiang's ability is very good. Therefore, Lin Ze is so kind that he wants to recruit Ma Ziqiang.
"Sir, if you say this, you will have to accept my banquet even more, because Bei Zhi took the time to eat and explain the situation here to you." Ma Ziqiang said sincerely, and he was 100% satisfied with Lin Ze.
In the entire Linsha City, which official can be like Lin Ze, who once he arrives at the place, he will not eat and play first, but will directly care about the resettlement of refugees?!
No, none.
The officials of Linsha City who came here just came here to show their existence, and then turned back to Linsha City, and would not check the resettlement of refugees at all.
As soon as Lin Ze came here, he directly refused his banquet and wanted to see the situation of the refugees first. This made Ma Ziqiang's favorable impression of Lin Ze rise to the maximum.
"That's it..." Lin Ze thought for a while, and finally looked at each other with Wang Ming behind him, then nodded in agreement.
"I'll trouble you General Ma if you hold it once. But let's just make it simple!"
"Okay, sir, please!" Ma Ziqiang led the way forward with a smile on his face.
Soon, the group came to a very ordinary restaurant, and the food and drinks had already been on hand.
Looking at this guy's very ordinary restaurant and the ordinary wine and food on the table, Lin Ze nodded with satisfaction.
Next, Lin Ze and his friends were eating and chatting, and Ma Ziqiang also took the opportunity to tell Lin Ze about the situation of the refugees in the Left Acropolis City.
The Left Acropolis is a military city. The walls on the front, back and left and right are about five miles long and are about thirty meters high. There were originally a total of 100,000 troops stationed in it. However, this time, because hundreds of thousands of refugees were needed to be placed here, 80,000 of these 100,000 troops evacuated into the Right Acropolis on the other side of Linsha City. Now the soldiers and logistics personnel left here are 26,850.
Later, Ma Ziqiang recruited 5,000 security personnel from the refugees to be responsible for the security situation in the refugee camp. Therefore, now there are about 30,000 people in the Left Acropolis City.
Don’t look at the fact that there are more than 30,000 people here, it seems like there are a lot, but it is not.
Because, in the hands of more than 30,000 people, more than half of the soldiers need to be guarded on the city wall, otherwise, if they are robbed by sand or the rebels in Qingzhou suddenly attacked, then everything will be over.
Therefore, there are only about 15,000 people who can be used to resettle refugees.
It’s not that Ma Ziqiang doesn’t want to recruit more personnel, but that his official position can only allow him to have an army of only 10,000. Now there are more than 30,000, which is far beyond the lineup. If he dares to recruit more personnel, Yu Deen will not be able to do so even if he wants to not take him down.
Otherwise, once those who are interested sue this matter in Kyoto, even Yu Deen will not be able to take it.
The Left Acropolis is just a military city with a radius of five miles, and there are many forbidden areas in the army here, so it is now the greatest extent to be placed in the resettlement of 500,000 refugees.
However, the rebellion in Qingzhou has not yet subsided, and there are more and more intense signs. Therefore, after more than half a year of unrest, many of the Qingzhou people who originally did not want to leave have now embarked on the path of refugees.
Therefore, the number of refugees coming to Zuowei City is still endless, and Ma Ziqiang has been having a headache these days.
According to Ma Ziqiang's estimate, in another ten days and half a month, the number of refugees gathered here will exceed 600,000, and the number of refugees that can be accommodated in the Left Acropolis is limited.
Hearing this huge number, Lin Ze's eyes had a cold murderous intent, which was the cold murderous intent of those rebel leaders in Qingzhou.
