"Xingshu, calculate the impact of the refugee flow and deduce it again. Also inform Mr. Harland that the scale of the punishment camp in Dehloran needs to be expanded. I estimate that there will be many people fishing in troubled waters in the upcoming refugee flow. "
"The order confirms that the war situation is being deduced and drawings of the expansion of the punishment camp are being drawn."
Major General Ramsey stood in front of the huge holographic sand table. The blue zone representing the Star Group and the red zone of the Renaissance Front were still more than 100 kilometers away from completely joining together.
After learning from the captured deserters that General Nasser had issued an order to "collect war preparation supplies" to all the holy warriors, Ramsay immediately called Yang Tianyi, the supreme leader of the new Baghdad base camp. His memory had been enhanced by genetic agents. I still vividly remember the video conversation at that time.
...
"Leader, this matter is of great importance. Please give me instructions."
Wearing a black military uniform, Ramsay sent the estimated scale of the refugee flow to the Xingshu host with a serious face. After secondary calculation, the huge number made Yang Tianyi, who was still smiling just now, suddenly stop smiling and frown slightly. .
"As far as I know, the population from Badra to Mehran, even including the urban area, does not exceed 300,000. In other words, at least one-third of the people will leave their homes and go to Dehloran?"
"Yes, I didn't think there would be so many refugees at first. But after thinking about it carefully, I really think Nasser made a good move."
"I see."
Before Ramsay could explain, Yang Tianyi shook his head slightly and said: "It is a lie to let the refugees escape, but it is true to consume the group's precious supplies. Am I right, General?"
"exactly."
Ramsey added solemnly: "Due to the policy of New Baghdad to gather the surrounding population for more than ten years, the population of Dehloran city itself has been greatly reduced to less than one million. If the refugee flow is allowed to flow into the city, Dehloran city will lose its population." The order in Lorain will inevitably collapse, and when the rear is unstable, the front line will have to divide its forces to maintain order."
"But if refugee camps are built and all refugees are managed uniformly, the group will consume countless supplies every day. The number of trains and transport planes originally responsible for transporting supplies to the front line will inevitably be reduced, and it may even affect the offensive efficiency."
Yang Tianyi also thought of these problems when Ramsey explained, and he didn't have a good solution.
When order collapses, the group can maintain it. If supplies are insufficient, the group can replenish it, but all this is based on the premise that it does not affect the war.
Those picky European customers don't care about the life and death of the refugees. You, the Star Group, are unable to take care of both at the same time and still insist on showing off. If it affects the war situation, don't put the blame on those innocent refugees.
Armadanai Company will definitely add insult to injury, and Yang Tianyi even doubts whether they will deliberately abandon their troops and then put all the responsibility on the Stars Group.
"One hundred thousand refugees..."
Looking at the bumpy road from Dehloran to Baidra and the dilapidated simple railway, he frowned slightly and twitched twice.
It is unrealistic to rely on trucks to transport refugees and supplies. There is only one way to transport all refugees in a short time.
railway.
"If we let the troops advance and separate engineering troops to work with track-laying trains, how long will it take to rebuild the railway?"
"In calculation, the highest efficiency and the lowest efficiency are used for calculation."
"It can be completed in fifty hours at the fastest and seventy-two hours at the slowest."
For this not-so-difficult question, Xingshu gave the answer in less than a second, which made Yang Tianyi's frown relax a little, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Would it be acceptable to you, General Ramsey, to be away from the engineering force for two to three days?"
Ramsay glanced at the calculation results sent by the star hub. A blue line representing the high-speed railway was rapidly extending from Dehloran Station to the outskirts of Baidra, showing the time.
Fifty to seventy-two hours.
"It's acceptable, leader. I will let the troops cover the railway repair work as much as possible when advancing. I just hope that Armadanai's armored troops will not see it as useless. With luck, the Renaissance Front will not be able to find the way to their important stronghold. The railway has been repaired!"
"Haha, I hope the stars will protect us!"
"Blessed by the stars! Salute to you!"
After saluting Yang Tianyi who was sending blessings on the other side of the screen, Ramsay's always stern face showed a rare blush, obviously feeling a little embarrassed about what he was going to say next.
"That, leader."
The old general paused and then said: "I remember that the armored train No. 1 was parked at Dehloran Station. If she can be incorporated into my command, even if the Renaissance Front comes to cause destruction, I dare to guarantee it with the honor of a soldier. .”
"They will gain nothing! There will be rivers of blood!"
...
"My dear fellows, come to life!"
The head of the engineering unit, who had been stationed on the front line with the large units for some time, a middle-aged man wearing glasses and looking gentle, shouted happily to his colleagues in the office.
"It took two days to repair the railway from Dehloran to Badra suburban station. The track-laying train has already put on the road with brand-new steel rails shipped from New Baghdad. We have to work harder and try to consolidate them before the train arrives. Roadbed, lay the sleepers!”
"Two days? Forty-eight hours? It's so easy for the officers to stand and talk! It will take a week to complete such a long railway, and we have to expect those guys from the Renaissance Front to be fools and just stay where they are and watch us. Drive the track-laying train into their faces!”
An old engineer with white hair and beard couldn't help but retreat after hearing the two-day time limit, which immediately caused a group of young people around him who had just joined the group to glare at him.
The middle-aged person in charge didn't say much to him, but just pushed up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.
These engineers who are temporarily recruited from the local area are not very good, and they will sit in the office every day drinking tea and getting paid. If the group did not need a group of engineers who are more familiar with the local environment as consultants, where would this old guy have the opportunity to challenge them in the world? Top students gathered from all over the place blowing their beards and staring!
"Old Fouad, how many years have you been an engineer?"
The usually gentle middle-aged man's tone became cold, which made Fuad, who was still arrogant, shrink his head. After thinking carefully, he raised his right hand and stretched out three fingers.
"I have been a railway engineer at Helolan Station for more than thirty years."
Hearing the slight pride revealed in the old man's words, the middle-aged person in charge sighed, stopped arguing with him, and just responded lightly.
"Fuad, today's Dehloran is not the same as it was thirty years ago, and the Star Group is not the Middle East Alliance government. Just two days, two days, no delay for an hour!"
"Whether the orders from our superiors are reasonable or not, it is not our turn to question them. If I find that you have similar behavior during the next two days of construction, then I can only ask you to leave the group's engineering team."
"I know, I know."
Old Fouad lowered his head and tightened his hand on the tea cup, thinking to himself: "If you don't want to do it, then I will do it. How can a thirty-year-old engineer be trapped here to death?"
The person in charge glanced at the depressed old Fuad with some worry. Although he didn't like this "consultant" who was occupying the toilet and did nothing, he didn't want to see a problem person in his team.
What is that artificial intelligence called?
Xingshu, please report this situation to it. I just hope that old Fuad can stick to the bottom line and not do anything that will disgrace the group.
