"I said, how many people are you going to transport away? Huh?" Standing on the pier of Bunas, an officer from Lais looked impatiently at the Tang officer beside him and asked.
It has been three days since he came here to take over the defense, but the dock is still crowded with all kinds of people every day, carrying luggage of all sizes, preparing to leave this once richest city in the world.
In his opinion, this is a completely mysterious behavior: there is a complete and advanced water supply system, as well as electricity and lighting systems. There are countless factories outside the city to provide employment opportunities, and the municipal management is also astonishingly perfect. the point.
Why on earth would you leave such a paradise-like place? You must know that every house here was worth a fortune two months ago!
However, just because the Tang Group left this place, and just because the Lions Empire was about to occupy it, this place seemed to have turned into a hell overnight.
The stock market in Bunas plummeted overnight, turning from a crowded place of wealth to an empty ghost building.
Countless people sold the bills in their hands. A stock that originally cost more than a dozen gold coins per share was sold for only two silver coins!
Two months ago, a small house of 80 square meters here could be sold for a sky-high price of 30,000 gold coins, but a month ago, no one cared about it for 4,000 gold coins. The same house yesterday only cost 500 gold coins to sell, but today it only costs 300...
When Bunas was at its most prosperous, if Datang Group sold this place, it could buy an entire kingdom.
But now, it seems that this place has suddenly turned back into the little-known fishing village it was before, and back into that poor, worthless town.
"As long as someone is willing to leave, they can board the ship. This is an agreement between us, isn't it?" The young Tang officer put his hands behind his back and looked at the civilians leaving for Long Island with a smile on his face. Enns Empire officer said.
He paused, and then continued: "You have received so many benefits for nothing. If you don't even give us this small amount of compensation, is it unreasonable?"
When Datang Group left here, in accordance with the agreement, it did not move anything: including countless factory facilities outside the city, including power stations and water plants, including shipbuilding docks and huge gantry cranes.
The excellent power system, tap water system, sewers and communication network in Bunas City... were all left to the Lions Empire.
They didn't even destroy the telephone system. These advanced technologies have not yet been popularized in Lanes City.
What's more, when the Tang troops retreated, they left behind all their weapons and equipment. Including original cannons, machine guns, rifles... and ammunition for these weapons.
None of it was taken away! Weapons were neatly stacked in the barracks, and the helmets were left behind. The soldiers' bedding and even the washing basins were placed in their original positions.
Even the Lions Empire army that took over all this couldn't believe that the other party would really leave everything behind. The Datang Group was so trustworthy that no one could criticize it, which forced the Lions Empire army that accepted Bunas to also abide by the previous agreement.
"You have transported at least 500,000 people! Isn't this enough?" Seeing that Bunas was almost empty, the officer of the Laens Empire stressed depressedly.
At its peak, the population of Bunas exceeded one million. Before the arrival of the Lions army, the population here had dropped sharply to less than one million.
Now, there are only a few hundred thousand people left here. The 500,000 people that Officer Reins said were only the number of people they saw with their own eyes, and those who had left before were not included.
In fact, more than 1 million people left Beiling alone. The Tang State unknowingly completed a migration of one million people.
In order to resettle these people, Datang Group reclaimed a large amount of land on Longdao and also resettled a large number of people on the islands between Longdao and Dongwan Island.
At the same time, the former residents of Longdao migrated to Dongwan Island and Linshui Port in large numbers, and now have taken root on the eastern coast of Datang.
The five divisions from Beiling have also arrived at Linshui, and according to the plan, they will fill the west and south defense lines soon.
In order to complete such a huge amount of transportation, Datang Group not only used almost all freewheelers that could carry people, but also almost all freighters.
Tang Mo also rented out all the merchant fleets in the entire Endless Sea, offered them a commission that was hard to refuse, and asked them to join the team of transporters.
At the most exaggerated time, on the sea between Bunas and Dragon Island, the fleets were almost connected in a straight line, and each fleet could even see their own ships from each other.
Because shipping capacity was tight, sailing ships were used from the beginning. As long as ships can sail, they can participate in transportation and receive rewards.
How busy is this route? It was so busy that if a ship sank, the members who fell into the water would be rescued by passing ships before its hull had completely sunk to the bottom of the sea.
After arriving at Long Island, the transportation methods became diverse: some civilians arriving at Longcheng Port would be transported directly to Weigang by car or train.
The aborigines in Long Island will fly to other islands, or fly to Dongwan Island, and then fly from Dongwan Island to Linshui.
This is also an important reason why Tang Mo's planes are rarely spotted by ships when traveling to and from the sea: most ships are currently flying on the east side of the Endless Sea, while Tang Mo's planes are flying in the sky on the west side of the Endless Sea.
"Everyone can only carry two sets of clothes!" On the pier, a female soldier held a loudspeaker and walked beside the civilian queue to board the ship, shouting loudly.
Someone in the crowd threw his suitcase out and dropped it on the ground. Some were broken and the lids were lifted, and the clothes inside were scattered all over the floor.
"Carry your ID with you! Watch your children! ID! You need your ID to board the ship!" On the other side, there was also a female soldier holding a loudspeaker, who also shouted hoarsely.
"Lost your luggage! You can't bring all your luggage on board! Only valuables are allowed! Again, only valuables are allowed!" In the noisy crowd, a soldier carrying a submachine gun shouted at the top of his lungs.
There are only a handful of soldiers with guns here, they are responsible for maintaining order, nothing more. And what was docked at the dock was a Wolf-class cruiser.
This kind of warship was originally designed for ocean voyages. It has a large number of cabins and a strong material carrying capacity, so there is no problem in loading some civilians.
It's just that compared to the larger and more stable freewheel, the experience of riding a battleship is not as good as imagined.
Young children may be excited because they can see those cannons on the deck up close, which is definitely a novel experience.
But adults are reluctant to ride on such a slender warship. Its seaworthiness is not good, the cabin is narrow and the range of activities is often restricted. It is obviously very frustrating to sail for a long time.
"If everyone is willing to leave, we will transport everyone away." The Tang officer glanced at the officer from Liens and replied with a smile: "This is an agreement!"
"We have received an order, and the deadline is three days later. If you don't leave after three days, we have the right to seal the entire port." The officer from Laines warned.
"That's your business." The Tang officer said unconcernedly: "You can take out your gun and shoot me to death at any time, as long as you dare."
The officer from Lains snorted coldly. Although he was very dissatisfied, he still kept his mouth shut. Although he was ordered to threaten those left behind by the Datang Group, both the military and civilian officials warned him not to use violence.
These people have either received countless tributes from the Datang Group on weekdays, or they have seen the power of the Tang Army, and are as careful as possible when taking advantage of the Datang Group.
They have already got what they want, and of course they will not add any more complications. Lains I didn't want to have a fight with the Tang army's warships in the port when he took over Bunas.
No matter how stupid he is, he can't do such a stupid thing of smashing his own bowl: he wants to send off Datang Group as peacefully as possible, and then develop Bunas into the most important port city of Enns.
"The Lains Empire will protect all those who stay! We will lower taxes, protect workers' rights, and recognize the property ownership of everyone who stays..." At the gate of the dock, there were soldiers from Lains who also held trumpets. , constantly promoting the policies of the Lions Empire.
Their propaganda has indeed played a role in appeasing people's hearts, and many people have chosen to stay. After all, the place is still full of entertainment and bustling.
Many people choose to buy properties for sale at low prices and stay here. For them, this choice itself is a big gamble. If they win the gamble, they will have enough food and clothing for their whole life.
Although there are still some people who reluctantly turn around, and although some people choose to stay after queuing up, the pier is still open, and the queue to board the boat is still very long and spectacular.
In the second month after the Qi-Tang War broke out, Bunas was still in the process of peaceful handover. Although Beiling had become part of the Susas Empire, and despite the fact that Bunas already belonged to Laines, they were all As agreed, there are no restrictions on freedom of immigration.
Today, there are still people from Beiling who were hesitant before but have finally made up their minds. They rush to Bunas to board the ship and leave this continent for Earl Alice's new territory.
There are also some people who regret it and take a boat back to Bunas from Long Island - the returning boat has a large number of locations to choose from, so it is very convenient to return to Bunas.
On the endless sea, although there is still an endless stream of fleets coming and going, behind this prosperity, everyone has already felt that the storm that has been suppressed for a long time seems to be coming.
