"Commander-in-chief, calm down. There's no need to lower yourself to the level of these idiots!”
"Yeah, it's good to capture them all to build the railway. Let them be slaves for the rest of their lives and never be able to turn over a new leaf.”
Zhu Lingye was in a bad mood after returning from Guandu Ancient Town.
Seeing this, Ding Wei, Kong Jie, and Zhang Dabiao could only speak up, afraid that this decisive commander-in-chief would order another massacre.
Since the order to cut the braids was issued, more than 100,000 loyal and pure people in the three provinces had been killed and demoted to slaves. If they continued to kill, Zhu Lingye would definitely carry the name of tyrant.
Zhu Lingye also knew that killing people wouldn't solve the problem. He thought too naturally and was a little eager for quick success.
Brutal Qing was not good at other things, but enslaving the people was one of the best.
After more than a hundred years of high-pressure slavery, the people were used to being slaves. No matter how powerful the National Defense Force was and how many victories they won, they could not change their deep-rooted servility in a short period of time.
"Alright, there's no need to persuade him anymore. Continue with the interrogation order. Those who don't obey will be chased out of the Military Chief Manor's jurisdiction.”
"Zhou Ying, have you sent all the provincial officials?”
Hearing this, the middle-aged man with a square face and messy hair stood up and took out a roster from his file bag.
The middle-aged man was a high-level government Bio-Human summoned by Zhu Lingye from the system. He had professional experience in handling government affairs and was appointed as the first chief administrative officer of the Military Chief Mansion, in charge of the administrative work of the Military Chief Mansion.
The rest of the officials were also Bio-Humans summoned by the system.
As for why they didn't use locals, Zhu Lingye didn't like it!
The scholars who were enslaved by the Man Qing were backward and conservative, and were not suitable for important positions.
Therefore, in order to stabilize the recovered area as soon as possible, it was more appropriate to use Bio-Humans.
"Commander-in-chief, the officials of the three provinces have all gone to their posts. It is expected that the population survey will begin on the first of next month, and the land will be measured to provide relief to the victims!”
" Currently, the biggest problem facing the Army Chief Manor is that we don't have enough food. It's far from enough…"
"There are about 24 million people in the three provinces, and half of them are starving at all times, which is 12 million people.”
"There are so many disaster victims. Although there are about 100,000 tons of sweet potatoes in the warehouses everywhere, they are still in dire straits.”
Food!
At the mention of food, Zhu Lingye's head exploded.
Ever since he transmigrated to this parallel world and raised the flag to rebel, he had bought almost 200,000 tons of sweet potatoes one after another, spending hundreds of millions of silver coins.
But do you think 200,000 tons of sweet potatoes is a lot?
Not much! It could even be said to be pitifully little.
More than ten million victims needed relief, and at least six thousand tons of sweet potatoes were consumed every day.
200,000 tons could only last for a month at most.
Therefore, in order not to waste precious silver coins, Zhu Lingye gritted his teeth and decided to formally sign the agreement to join Great Britain and become the first Governor of Yan Huang.
What were the benefits of joining Great Britain?
Swindling food and drink!
After all, Indu was still a colony of Great Britain.
What kind of place was Indu?
Indentry was one of the regions with the largest cultivable land area in the world. The cultivated land area was about 160 million hectares, of which the plains accounted for about 40%, the mountains accounted for 25%, and the plateau accounted for 1/3. Most of these mountains and plateaus did not exceed 1000 meters above sea level.
Due to the combination of the tropical monsoonal climate, alluvial soil, and tropical black soil that were suitable for agricultural production, most of the land could be used for agriculture. Crops could grow all year round, so Indendo had unique natural conditions.
During the British colonial period, the production of food in Indu increased every year, and there was so much food that they could not eat it all.
During the negotiations a few days ago, he had already drafted the terms of the agreement with Elizabeth.
1. After signing the alliance agreement, Great Britain will transport an unlimited amount of food from Indo to the Yan Huang Army until the disaster is over.
2. The mines within the Yan Huang Army's jurisdiction belong to Great Britain, and Great Britain can develop them at will.
3. The British pound will become the only common currency in the area under the jurisdiction of the Yan Huang Army, and the financial officials will be appointed by Great Britain.
4. Great Britain will build a railway that runs through all the cities in the area under the jurisdiction of the Yan Huang Army. Great Britain will provide the materials and technology, and the Yan Huang Army will provide the manpower. However, the management rights of the railway will belong to Great Britain. The Yan Huang Army will have 30% of the shares and can enjoy dividends.
5. The chief of staff of the Yan Huang National Defense Force, division, and regiment level chief of staff will be sent by Great Britain. The commander of the National Defense Force, Zhu Lingye, has the right to command during wartime, but he does not have the right to start a war.
6. The Yan Huang National Defense Force must wear the British Royal Army badge and learn English.
7. Great Britain will do its best to help the Yan Huang Army build a complete industrial system, but all management rights will be shared between the Yan Huang Army and Great Britain.
Eight…
Nine…
There were 30 articles in the agreement, covering industries, economy, people's livelihood, and the military.
Once Zhu Lingye signed this agreement, he would be a traitor who could not be washed clean.
The question was, did Zhu Lingye care?
He didn't care!
Not only did they not care, but they also wanted to sign an agreement so that Great Britain could quickly build a railway, build factories, develop mines, build water conservancy facilities, and so on.
"Make some preparations. George the Fifth will come to Spring City in ten days. Don't drop the ball at the critical moment, do you hear me?”
