Chapter 1016
When the afterglow of the setting sun completely disappeared, Welsh city quieted down.
Unlike the peaceful atmosphere of the past, the air in Wales today seems to be filled with the smell of tension.
Under the temporary decree, Welsh residents had to bear the food of a soldier. Although they were not willing to, no one dared to resist.
The cruelty of the day frightened them, and no one was willing to risk their lives to refuse.
"Sir, this is bread, jerky, cheese and red wine. Please enjoy yourself."
In a very wealthy family, Chang Yuzhu is lying at the table, waiting for the owner of the house to deliver food. For them, they need a dinner too much now.
And before the next supply comes, they can only feed themselves with Wales' own resources. It is a necessary ability to get supplies from the defeated.
"Not bad, more than I expected."
Chang Yuzhu looks at the food on the table and sweeps his eyes at the owner of the house. This is a fat middle-aged man who seems to have been living a good life.
But because he didn't understand the English language, he didn't want to communicate with them.
While eating in changyuzhu, the imperial soldiers on the streets of Wales are working as class units. They are assigned to different areas with 12 households in each area.
A class of 12 people in three groups, divided into four groups to eat, whenever a soldier enters the house to eat, the other two are responsible for security.
During the rest, they took the same measures to protect their own safety. After all, for the British, they are the enemy, and they should always be vigilant when they are guests in the enemy's home.
In addition, thunder also issued a curfew order, arranged for patrols to tour Wales, and any Englishman who appeared on the street at night would be shot.
The machine gunners, as the key protection objects, are arranged in the governor's house, where they and their equipment are all provided, and the logistics soldiers are responsible for their food.
"Commander, this is the document we found at the governor's house, which records all the information about Wales." Shi Yanjun holds a summary of the information.
"Read Thunder took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit one.
Like many generals, it's hard for them to give up smoking this stuff. After all, for those who fight on the battlefield, there are few things that can relax their spirit.
However, this kind of cigarette is very expensive, and only one company in the empire is producing it. As for who invented it, of course, it's their emperor.
"According to the data, there are 9000 free immigrants in Wales, with a population of about 35000. There are 20000 descendants of exiled criminals, with a population of about 68000. The rest are criminals sent from England in the past three years, with a total of 7000."
After a pause, Shi Yanjun continued: "over the years, they have opened up a lot of pastures and farms outside Wales. Among them, there are 33320 farms. There are 600 small and large farms. These farms are mainly beef cattle and sheep used to produce wool, while the farms mainly grow wheat, barley, oilseed, cotton and sugarcane. ”
hearing the thunder, he suddenly burst into laughter and said, "the capture of Australia is really a lucrative business. The British have been operating here for so many years, and now these achievements are ours. Whether it's cattle, sheep or cotton, these are ready-made. We just need to enjoy the ready-made."
Shi Yanjun echoed and said with a smile, "who said it's not? So many ready-made farms and pastures, as long as they are all taken over, the soldiers stationed in Australia will have no worries about plain clothes and food. However, there are still too many British people in Wales. If these people riot, it will be a great trouble for us, and it will also slow down our pace of attack. "
Thundering's look sank down. What Shi Yanjun was worried about was what he was thinking about.
He is very clear that these British people are just afraid of their military force. Psychologically, they can't submit. After all, Britain has already had its own national concept.
For the British, they are foreigners and enemies. They can't get along with them either physically or psychologically.
So now there are two things in front of him. The first is to take cruel policies to turn the residents of Wales into slaves. The second is to treat the residents of Wales mildly and collect taxes from them.
The drawback of the former is that it will cause fierce conflicts for a period of time, while the drawback of the latter is that sooner or later, chaos will arise when ruling such a group of seemingly strange people.
However, more than ten years ago, Lei Ming had a decisive heart. He asked Shi Yanjun, "if we exchange identities, what do you think these British people will do to us?"
"Commander, is that true? They will certainly turn us into slaves and sell us to other colonies as coolies, and that's exactly what they do. "
"That's it." Thunder's eyes shrill up, "we are how to deal with the barbarians, how to deal with them."
Shi Yanjun nodded excitedly. If he didn't put a pair of shackles on these people, he couldn't sleep soundly at night. "Now I'll order the generals to be prepared. In the next two days, I'll officially announce the Slave Act and turn all the defeated into slaves."Thunder nodded, "in addition, as soon as possible send the war report back, we can't stay here all the time."
Shi Yanjun answered, and then he hesitated and said, "commander, the soldiers fought hard and fought here. It's a pity that they left without getting any oil and water. You see, Wales is just a small place on the Australian mainland. Besides, there is boundless fertile land. It's a waste if it's empty."
Thunder's eyes narrowed. It's very difficult to lead soldiers to fight. Soldiers are human beings, and they have their own selfish desires. So once generals indulge their soldiers, they will become bandits. In the past, some generals often used this way to let soldiers release their depressed emotions.
The discipline of the imperial army was very strict, but the strict distance and the fighting morale were two different things. Because of this, the Imperial Army's incentive policy for foreign operations continued.
After three years in the army, wealth and wealth have become folk proverbs.
"Well, it seems that you have a good impression here." Thunder laughed.
Shi Yanjun said: "commander, compared with the cold in Kanto, according to the British people, it's warm and humid all the year round. That's why Britain takes a fancy to this place. Since we are ordered to occupy this place, we have to get close to the water first."
