Chapter 967 Your Sister Is Much Smarter than You

Following the arrival of the daughter of the city lord of Jiangcheng, who appeared under the special arrangement of Meimei Jimo, the news that Jiangcheng was breached by Hecheng was known by the captives, which caused quite a shock.

Out of concern for their families, the captives sent representatives to petition the high-level officials in Xincheng, hoping to get some news about their families.

However, they got bad news.

Xincheng didn't hide anything, and let Jiangcheng's fugitives come out in person to announce the situation in Jiangcheng.

But the result is that the captive who originally had a little fantasy in his heart got the cruel truth.

During the siege of Hecheng, due to the lack of soldiers, the city lord of Jiangcheng brutally drove the ordinary citizens up to resist, and did not distribute any equipment.

Moreover, the people who are forced to go to the battlefield, regardless of gender, age or age, except infants, as long as they can stand firmly and hold something, even a three-year-old child must go up.

The first of these were the families of soldiers in the army.

This kind of people without any combat experience and equipment went to the battlefield, and the result can be imagined. Like cannon fodder, they were harvested by the enemy one after another.

In the end, many people were sacrificed, but they still failed to hold the city and were broken by the Hecheng army.

When the city fell, no less than 100,000 ordinary citizens died, including most of the soldiers' families.

In other words, the captured Jiangcheng soldiers in Xincheng were already homeless.

The above is true news, not fake news spread by Wu Mei and others to make Jiangcheng captives pay attention. It is indeed true news brought by Gong Beibei and the group of people who broke out from Jiangcheng.

When they knew that their family members had been killed, the prisoners of Jiangcheng became restless, and their hatred towards Hecheng and the city lord of Jiangcheng rose.

If the city lord of Jiangcheng hadn't made such a cruel decision, even if Jiangcheng was broken, ordinary city residents would be fine.

After all, population is a very important resource in this world. Conscription, production, labor, etc. are not included in population.

The captives were very emotional and wanted revenge, so they sent representatives again to negotiate with Xincheng, hoping that Xincheng would let them go and let them go back to Jiangcheng for revenge.

But how could Xincheng agree to this kind of request.

Let people go, let them die in vain, or become prisoners of Hecheng again, just kidding.

The Xincheng side resolutely refused to agree. After repeated negotiations to no avail, the captives began to be passive and sabotage, and the construction of the new city was sluggish.

However, Xincheng did not take any action because of the passive sabotage of the captives. On the contrary, they still provided food and drink. It was not until a few days later that the captives' anger calmed down that they sent people to communicate and persuade them, and began to calm down. Work.

If you want to calm down, you have to give those Jiangcheng captives something that makes them happy.

For example, dispel the plant bombs in their bodies, so that they can feel at ease, at least on the surface, they feel that their lives are not in the hands of others.

Of course, that's what I said, but in fact the plant bomb, Meimei didn't intend to let Yaya get rid of the captive's body immediately.

Before it was really confirmed that the captives had settled down, they would only be putting on a show.

But after all, the human heart is sinister, so we have to guard against it, right?

Another is to give the captives a normal status, let them become members of the new city, and enjoy the same treatment, such as arranging a house that belongs to them as their exclusive property.

This one came from Chen Fang's proposal, and it was this proposal that made it much easier to carry out the Xinxin project.

Settling down, as long as you are in a place and have something that belongs to you, you will have a sense of identity and belonging to this place, so it goes without saying.

Then there is the encouragement of captives to look ahead, where they are encouraged to form their own families.

But this is a bit difficult, because the personnel composition of the new city is very simple, that is, the army and their families brought over from the Indomitable City before, so there are few female resources, so the competition may be very fierce in the early stage.

However, Xincheng made a promise that it will make up for this deficiency in the future. As for how to supplement the female population, it didn't say much.

There is also the arrangement of the identity and work of the captives in the future.

If you are tired of being soldiers, let them become ordinary citizens, and let them do what they have any skills, such as gathering those who can blacksmith together, and building a blacksmith shop for them to make tools or weapons.

Those who want to be soldiers continue to be soldiers.

Of course, it was filled into the original troops after being disrupted.

At the same time, Mei Mei also took advantage of this opportunity to obtain a set of basic training methods for the Blue Star Army from Chen Fang, put them into use, formulate new military regulations, and educate soldiers ideologically.

Anyway, under a series of operations, except for some people with ulterior motives and loveless people who either passively or actively received box lunches, most of the Jiangcheng prisoners gradually integrated into the new city, further strengthening the strength of the new city.

Another two months passed, the north wind blew, and the solar term entered winter.

The last wave of grain was harvested before the snow fell, and all aspects of construction were almost completed. The new city entered a relatively leisure time for most people.

"It's so boring, let's hold an event to make the whole city lively."

One morning, Chen Fang suddenly said to the others at the dinner table.

Charming and the others rolled their eyes after hearing this.

To say how many people are here, he is the only one who will feel bored.

Even Gong Xiaobai, he works diligently in front of the signing and stamping machine every day. If he doesn't process thousands of documents a day, he won't be able to get off work.

That is Chen Fang, because this guy is easy to cause trouble, Yu Mei is afraid of him, and only asks for a symbolic patrol and sightseeing once a day, nothing else.

Wenren stared and said: "You are very free, but we are very busy, how can we have time to play with you?"

"Tch, what are you busy with? Didn't you just set up a city management office and let you be the boss? Now there are only a few ordinary citizens in the city. Where can you be busy?" Chen Fang pouted.

Because of the addition of captives, some people were unwilling to serve as soldiers and became ordinary city citizens. Naturally, corresponding institutions had to be established, such as city governance offices responsible for daily patrols in the city, picketing crimes, and resolving disputes.

"Why aren't you busy? There are a lot of things to do, such as creating new account files for everyone, making ID cards, etc. I'm busy from morning till night, don't you see?"

"Since you're bored, come and help me."

Wenren stared at Chen Fang and said, "It looks like you refuse to look good to you.

Chen Fang refused without even thinking about it. He didn't want to do such tedious things, he would rather be bored and in a daze.

Seeing this, Wen Ren wanted to use violence to force Chen Fang to submit, but Jimo stopped him.

"Actually, Chen Fang's proposal is acceptable to me."

"Sister, you are busier than me, so there is still time to do some activities, and there is no need to do activities."

Wen Ren looked at Jimo in puzzlement.

"I think Chen Fang's proposal is good. Now that most people in the city have some time, we can organize a city-wide event."

"Why?"

"To gather people's hearts, enhance the sense of belonging and identity, and promote harmony, etc., will be very helpful for the future development of our new city." Jimo explained.

"Snapped."

Chen Fang patted the table and gave Jimo a thumbs up, taking this opportunity to say, "You still understand me."

Then Chen Fang squinted at Wenren, with contempt in his eyes.

"Your sister is smarter than you, and understands the real intention of my idea, hum."

Being despised by Chen Fang made Wenren go crazy, so he jumped on him and was about to scratch his face a few times.

Charming pulled Wenren away dumbfounded, and then said:

"If you want to say that, you can really do it. It just happens that the winter festival is coming, so let's go through it."

Following Mei Mei's statement, other people also agreed.

So what kind of event will be held?

Everyone present discussed it.
