Chapter Thirty: Going Forward

After a large number of refugees were transferred to their destinations, they were relatively well resettled. At least they were not without food. Although the amount of food obtained by each person every day was limited, which could only guarantee their most basic needs, there were no large numbers of people starving to death.

situation.

The medicine shop under Maoshengyuan also provided a lot of help to a large number of immigrants this time. They prepared a large amount of medicinal materials in advance. When the refugees arrived at their destination, everyone had to drink medicinal soup for several days to fight insects.

Some are used to prevent typhoid fever, and some are used to scrub and clean the skin. In short, we try to reduce the occurrence of diseases as much as possible.

Moreover, large bathhouses have been prepared at various places where immigrants are received. Everyone must take a dip in the medicinal soup and undergo a body cleansing before being resettled to the immigration site.

Moreover, all their clothes must be washed and steamed in a large pot before they can be worn again. Some immigrants are really wearing too tattered clothes. Sea Wolf also provides some old clothes for them to replace, even though they are old clothes.

, but they have also been strictly cleaned and disinfected, and they are still much better than their original clothes.

Therefore, although many immigrants were reluctant to be dragged to these places, when they saw the situation here, they gradually felt relieved. At least there were two meals a day here. Although most of them were sparse, at least they would not go hungry.

He was dead, and he was increasing the amount of food rations for them every day, making them gradually feel stronger.

When we were on land, many hungry people were so frightened that they couldn't eat anything for many days. They were hovering on the verge of death all day long. All they saw were the tragedies in the world and the callousness of being rich.

Although the conditions here are not very good, it has provided them with conditions to survive, which has exceeded many people's expectations.

For these immigrants, although Yu Xiaotian had stored a large amount of food in advance, after all, this time one guy brought in too many people, and even if he had a strong foundation, it was a bit overwhelming, so at the beginning, he tried his best to let everyone

An individual could eat enough, but later on when the number of people increased, he realized that eating like this would never last for the autumn harvest and purchase of grain from outside.

So he could only cut down on food, classify people according to the amount of work, and divide them into several levels. Those who have to participate in stronger labor every day can eat more, but the daily workload is relatively small, and the amount of food given is reduced, like

Some people basically do not participate in labor, so food can only meet the minimum needs to maintain life.

But the only exception is those teenagers and children under the age of fifteen. For these children, Yu Xiaotian requires that their nutritional needs be ensured as much as possible. After all, these children will be his foundation in the future, and they are growing up now.

, once there is a lack of nutrition for a long time, it will have a great impact on future development.

After the introduction of such a graded food supply system, some people were not happy at first. After all, they came early and the food was initially opened to them. But now the graded system is suddenly introduced, so some people are unhappy and feel that their food

When someone is cheated, they want to make trouble or simply encourage others to make trouble.

For those who make trouble or instigate trouble, Sea Wolf has its own way of dealing with them. Some people are picked out and chopped into pieces, and most of them are picked out and detained alone, or thrown into hard labor camps to do hard work, or at least be punished.

After being hungry for a few days, they allowed them to review the hard days before coming here. The result was of course very good, and they immediately suppressed their dissatisfaction.

Of course, it is impossible for such a large-scale immigration operation not to make some mistakes. After all, this incident happened quite suddenly. Sea Wolf was not very well prepared, and there were a lot of troubles during the period. Fortunately,

Seawolf's personnel were more serious about their work and quickly found a solution, which did not give Yu Xiaotian too much headache.

This makes Yu Xiaotian feel very happy. With his efforts over the years, a good working atmosphere has been formed within the Sea Wolf. There are very few people who are careless about things, and no one dares to shirk responsibility for their own duties. This kind of

There is no place for people among Sea Wolf, so Sea Wolf's administrative efficiency is very, very high in this era. At least compared to the government on land, one person can do the work for a large group of them.

Moreover, the advantage of having fewer people is that there is no place to shirk responsibilities. Whoever’s business is their own business. There is no chance to kick the ball. Everyone is responsible for everything. If something goes wrong, the person responsible can be found directly. There is no excuse for shirk.

Therefore, although this large-scale immigration wave made Sea Wolf very busy, overall there was not much trouble.

As for Dagou Port, after more than a year of preliminary preparations, Hailang invested a lot of hard work and carried out large-scale environmental transformation within a radius of dozens of miles around Dagou Port.

Almost all of the mosquito terrain has been transformed, and a large number of bushes and grasslands have been set on fire. Although it has caused some environmental impacts, it has played a good role in housing people in the future.

At least when the immigration wave comes, Dagou Port has initially met the conditions to accept a large number of immigrants to settle and farm, so that malaria epidemics will not break out as soon as a large number of immigrants arrive here. This has also greatly reduced the mortality rate of immigrants, basically

The mortality rate of immigrants was controlled to less than 20%.

Although only eight out of ten people can live, this number seems cruel. Three hundred thousand people will eventually die, and about sixty thousand will die. This situation looks very miserable, but in fact, in this era, hundreds of thousands of people are extremely weak.

For immigrants who lack nutrition, it is a miracle that the mortality rate can be controlled at this level.

Historically, there have been many records of large-scale immigration to Taiwan from the mainland since the Han Dynasty. However, until the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was basically never successful. The mainland had repeatedly immigrated to Taiwan in large numbers, and basically ended in failure.

, most immigrants ultimately failed to withstand the harsh environment here, and often large-scale malaria infections or other diseases broke out within a short period of time, resulting in the death of a large number of immigrants, with the mortality rate even reaching over 90%.

The remaining immigrants had no choice but to flee back to the mainland in order to survive.

Even in the original time and space, in the history of the late Ming Dynasty, Zheng Zhilong immigrated to Taiwan Island in large numbers. In the initial stage, the disease outbreak among immigrants was also very serious, and the death rate among immigrants was also quite high. At least 50% of the immigrants did not die.

Survive.

And Sea Wolf was able to control the mortality rate of immigrants within 20% in the first few months after arriving in Taiwan, which is actually very commendable. After all, there was no modern medicine and modern medical level at this time, so we could only

Some Chinese herbal medicines are used to treat various diseases. Although Chinese medicine has its own good effects and curative effects, it is relatively slow and not very targeted. Especially the ability to control infectious diseases is still very poor. It can do this.

, which is already quite good.

With the large-scale immigration that lasted for several months, the number of hungry people on land in Fujian decreased sharply. A large number of hungry people in the inland learned that they could get food along the coast, so they moved towards the coastal area in large numbers, and the Sea Wolf Group

The semi-open recruitment of immigrants in the coastal areas continuously transported the hungry people who came to the coastal areas out of Fujian and transferred them to Taiwan Island. This fundamentally solved the problem of Fujian's inability to provide relief to the victims.

Since a large number of hungry people can survive, they are naturally not willing to surrender to the bandits easily and go to kill the bandits without any hesitation. This cuts off the source of the chaos at the source, causing the bandits to lose a large number of fertile ground for absorbing new forces, and becomes a

Once the rootless tree is eliminated, the chaotic situation begins to be effectively controlled.

The civil unrest incidents in various places began to gradually decrease as the sea wolves began to migrate in large numbers. Even some bandit groups that had already gathered in groups, as the sea wolves began to recruit immigrants along the coast, many of them had already joined the army.

The hungry people who were thieves also sneaked away, causing the originally unstable bandit group to gradually disappear due to blood loss.

Xiong Wencan kept an eye on the development of the situation in Fuzhou. When he saw that Angel Yu Xiaotian's move had indeed begun to bear fruit, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, and his heart was full of gratitude to Xiaotian.

While Yu Xiaotian was recruiting a large number of immigrants to cultivate the island of Taiwan, he also began to carry out military operations on a large scale, sending a large number of soldiers and generals to various places to suppress the bandit groups that were becoming more and more popular.

The thieves, who were basically made up of hungry people as their main force, had no power to fight back against the elite sea wolf army.

No matter whether they fight head-on or break up into pieces and sneak into the mountains, they can't stop the soldiers under Yu Xiaotian from attacking them. The army under Yu Xiaotian was first formed in the mountains and forests of Taiwan Island, and with those

The indigenous people living in the mountains and forests fought and accumulated quite a wealth of experience in mountain warfare.

Although Fujian is very mountainous, it is very convenient for bandits to move and hide, but this is only for ordinary officers and soldiers. When they face the infantry of the Sea Wolf who are good at this, those Sea Wolf infantry often show

Extremely strong mountain combat capabilities.

Often, Sea Wolf's generals can use small forces to track bandits in the mountains, and use various methods to defeat them, gradually weakening the large group of bandits, and finally annihilate them completely.

This kind of ability is simply unimaginable for ordinary Fujian officers and soldiers. Sea Wolf's infantry often dare to go deep into the mountains and forests alone with dozens or more, that is, one or two hundred people, to attack

Bandits can often achieve great success when they pursue them, but for ordinary Fujian officers and soldiers, even if they are given a lot of courage, they would not dare to rush into the mountains and forests rashly.

Therefore, in the second half of the first year of Chongzhen, Yu Xiaotian was making great progress, and good news came frequently. Almost every day, large and small battle reports were submitted to the governor's Yamen in Fuzhou City and the commander-in-chief of the military affairs.

, which made Xiong Wencan and these officials all dumbfounded.
