"The province of Yunzhong reports that the Holy See is now expulsing the people of Saint Lei City and surrounding towns, and now a large number of refugees are gathering in the border area to request entry. What do you think?"
After Chen Zi'ang asked Fatty Lu about the situation of the Holy See, he also told him about the situation on the border of Yunzhong Province.
"Why did the Holy See expel the people around Saint Lei City?"
After hearing what Chen Ziang said, Fatty Lu was also very puzzled.
"Because St. Lei City and its surrounding areas were originally my land in the Far East, and the people living there are also from my Far East."
"Now we support the United Kingdom established by the Baiyun tribe in Hanhai Qingzhou, which has caused chaos in Qingzhou. It is estimated that the Holy See is worried about following in the footsteps, so it took action in advance." Chen Ziang explained.
"Since Saint Thunder City and its surrounding areas are our land in the Far East, we will send troops to take them back!" Fatty Lu said.
"Now all the provinces in our country are waiting to be rebuilt. It is really not suitable for large-scale use of troops."
"Once we send troops to take back St. Lei City and its surrounding areas, we will inevitably start a war with the Holy See again, which will affect the recovery of our strength."
The Far East Empire has a strong military force, and to be honest, it is really not afraid of the Holy See.
After all, an army led by Fatty Lu swept across the Holy See. Although it meant a surprise attack, it was enough to show the strength of the Far Eastern Empire.
However, Chen Ziang also knew in his heart that the strength of military power is based on the support of the broad masses of the people.
If they can't change the status quo and let the people live a better life, it will be fine in a short period of time, but the people will definitely resent them in the long run.
The people are the source of soldiers in the army. Once the people do not support them, their army will also collapse.
This is why Chen Ziang made the economic recovery of the various provinces and counties in the territory his primary goal.
As long as the people's lives are better, the wealth of their Far East Empire will also increase, and the army will become bigger and stronger.
If the people do not have a good life, even if their Far Eastern Empire has a powerful army, they will not be able to continue to win on the battlefield.
"I have sent an order to the Second Field Army Corps stationed in Yunzhong Province, asking them to open the border and take in the people who were expelled by the Holy See." Chen Ziang said.
"Your Majesty is benevolent and righteous."
Fatty Lu also admired Chen Ziang's actions. Although those people used to be from the Far East, they are now from the enemy country.
Chen Ziang's ability to order the opening of the border to take them in is also awe-inspiring.
"Those are the blood of my survivors from the Far East, how could my empire ignore them."
"They were expelled by the Holy See from their homes where they lived for generations. We took them in for a short time, but in the long run, we need to let them return to their homes."
"What does His Majesty mean?"
Chen Ziang stared at Fatty Lu and said, "I want to send you to Yunzhong Province to recruit soldiers from the expelled people, train them, and fight back one day to regain their lost homeland."
"In addition to some people in Saint Lei City who were expelled by the Holy See this time, there are also a large number of people in the Holy See who have not joined the Holy See, which is what they call heretics."
"Although these people are not from the Far East, they are also oppressed and bullied by the Holy See. We can also win over them. When you recruit soldiers, you can also recruit them." Chen Ziang added.
The Pope of the Holy See saw the great impact of the Hanhai Qingzhou incident, so he also took precautions, that is, to eliminate the factors of instability in the territory as much as possible.
Some Far Easterners and heretics became the targets of deportation, and were deported to the Far East.
The pope's idea is very simple, that is, the number of these people is as many as one million, which is a huge burden, which is deliberately dumped on the Far Eastern Empire.
Because the army of the Far East Empire swept across their Holy See, destroyed many of their towns, and created countless refugees, it took them a long time to recover.
This time the Holy See also followed suit, expelling a large number of heretics and Far Easterners to the Far East, firstly to alleviate internal instability, and secondly to throw the burden on the Far Eastern Empire.
Because a large number of these pagans are Far Easterners, if the Far Eastern Empire does not take them in, it will inevitably affect its own influence and make those Far Easterners who have been abandoned feel resentful.
herePeople gathering in the border area for a long time is also a great hidden danger to the cloud provinces of the Far East Empire.
Chen Ziang also guessed the conspiracy of the Holy See, but in order to calm people's hearts, he still sent a decree to Li Lang, the commander of the second army stationed in the cloud, asking him to let the refugees enter the country.
?Because the Far Eastern Empire has always shown people a positive image, if a large number of Far Eastern refugees gather at the border and they do not accept them, it will be true.
Moreover, if these people gather together, if the weather is hot, it is easy to cause diseases, etc. It is better to accept them, not only to add points to the image, but also to get a lot of labor.
Because the previous large-scale war in Yunzhong Province had caused a lot of people to lose, now these deportees just filled the vacancy of the population loss.
What's more, Li Lang, the commander of the army, not only guards the border, but also reclaims wasteland in the province of Yunzhong, which also requires a lot of labor.
These refugees who came back from the Holy See can help the Second Field Army to farm and grow food in the border area according to the army's establishment.
Because it was too expensive to transport food from the far south to the cloud province in the north, which is why Li Lang was ordered to garrison the border in the cloud province.
Of course, Chen Ziang was not a good person when he received those deported refugees.
He wanted Fatty Lu to go to Yunzhongxing Province, and he also hoped to recruit soldiers from these so-called heretics to form an army.
If this army is different from the rest of the Far Eastern troops, the rest of the Far Eastern troops are all composed of Far Easterners.
But the members of this army can be these pagans, or they can be people from the Holy See, they can be Hanhai people, or they can be grassland people.
In other words, the members of this army are not limited to Far Easterners, they will be a mixed army.
And the purpose of Chen Zi'ang's formation of them is also very simple, that is, in the future, their combat area will not only be in the Far East, but also overseas.
? This includes going to recover areas such as St. Lei City occupied by the Holy See in the future, because many of them are former residents here, and they are more familiar with it.
? By the same token, in the future, this army will contain complex members. They come from various countries and understand the customs of each country. No matter where they go, they will fight locally.
Of course, as long as those who serve in this army, as long as they make meritorious service, they will be able to obtain the right of residence in the Far Eastern Empire and become new Far Easterners. This is also the welfare Chen Ziang gave them. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
