Chapter 342 Expanding the Army
Chapter 342: Expansion of the Army
Li Bin closed his eyes, pinched his brows with one hand, and gently knocked on the table with the pen in his hand. He could hear the symmetrical breathing beside him, and he also knew who the person standing beside him, but the lump had not been untied yet, so he had no time to pay attention to Xi Yun beside him.
"Or, you eat something first and think about things later? Or... I'll pinch your head?" After a long time, Xi Yun beside him asked timidly.
Li Bin nodded and opened his eyes. He was indeed a little hungry after running around all night.
Xi Yun pushed a plate of black egg custard in front of Li Bin and said embarrassedly: "It's a bit old, why don't I steam it again for you?"
Li Bin laughed, picked up a spoon and scooped up a big spoon and stuffed it into his mouth. Silly girl, she will naturally get old after steaming for too long. I don’t know how long you have been steaming this plate of egg custard.
Li Bin was lowering his head to eat egg custard, suddenly hesitated and reached out from behind, grabbed Li Bin's scalp and massaged it gently. Li Bin was stunned for a moment, then calmly accepted Xi Yun's service and continued to lower his head to eat egg custard.
So many people have seen Xi Yun holding her, so do you still care about accepting her massage?
It was dawn, and the village became busy. Hundreds of strong laborers were taken away by Zhang Rui, Han Ping and others, and went to the selected location outside the village to build a deep defense position. Ding Xiangzhu and Shi Mingyou also summoned people to build a factory.
Li Bin cheered up and went to the dock for a walk.
I didn't sleep all night and my head was a little drowsy, but after being massaged by Xi Yun with clumsy feet, I felt much better at least.
When Li Bin went out, he caught two soldiers at the entrance of the village and ordered them to protect the hospital and his temporary command center, which was actually Hassan's home. The hospital needs to be protected. There are a large amount of medical equipment and medicine there. Once the battle starts, it will be converted into strategic materials and a battlefield hospital, not to mention that there are doctors and part-time nurses who are more precious than medicine there.
The color steel house was built very quickly, and as long as it was divided according to the designed size, a few screws could be fixed. Although the Somali workers had never been exposed to this new building material, they quickly got started under the guidance of the two technicians who came with the fishing boat. Although the two technicians were only fishing boat technicians, they could still handle such simple assembly work. They even built a toilet with some extra color steel in the office area near the dock. Ding Xiangzhu neglected this and actually forgot that such an important facility was needed.
Li Bin patrolled the dock with a serious expression, especially the twenty 100-ton fishing boats that had been filled with oil. Li Bin specialized in taking care of the squad leader who was responsible for duty on the dock. He must guard closely and prohibit any idle people from waiting...
Li Bin looked at the construction progress and should be completed before dark. In this way, part of the migrant villagers can be temporarily placed in place. The main thing is... the indigenous people in the village are diverted. As long as everyone can be resettled, there will be no excessive chaos.
After saying hello to Ding Xiangzhu and others, Li Bin rushed from the direction of the village to the direction of the military camp. Before leaving the village, he had already encountered some villagers who had moved from the two villages one after another. The cattle and sheep were driving the sheep and the family were in chaos, and this was just a small stream of people. It was estimated that the real crowd would reach its peak when noon was approaching.
Hassan at the entrance of the village has arranged a special person to receive the transferred villagers. If there are relatives and friends in Hedexi, they will arrange for them to visit relatives... Friends, Hassan, who has no relatives and friends, will arrange to go to the villagers' homes as appropriate based on the number of family populations of the people coming. For a moment, the twenty or thirty reception staff arranged by Hassan were also very busy.
Li Bin stood at the entrance of the village with a frown and looked for a while, asked about Hassan's house preparations. Hassan scratched his head and said, "It's almost the same, there is no way to count now. In short, it's always impossible to make mistakes in every household and every household."
Li Bin smiled bitterly. Now he couldn't accuse Hassan of being unplanned in his work and could not take all the rights of the clan leader, right? He should let him decide on some things himself. Li Bin reminded Hassan of some special attention, so he rode a horse led by Hassan and walked towards the military camp.
Migrating the people is a matter, but how to protect the safety of these people is even more critical.
There is only one road from Hydexi Village to the military camp. The more you go forward, the more people help the elderly and the young, there are more and more people on the road. There are so many messy and no order. From time to time, ox carts will be scratched together, and the camels... the cattle's backs are also filled with all kinds of houses and food.
Although it was chaotic, Li Bin did not see too much panic in people's faces. Maybe they were already numb to war. After years of war, one day did not die? In which year did not move home several times? When I was numb, I got used to it. It became a matter of course. I have to say that this is really a tragedy in Somalia. If people live in such a life, how can they develop? How can they talk about wealth? As a result, Somalia has so many resources but no one dares to mine, and no one dares to mine.
Somalia has rich minerals such as oil...coal resources, uranium...iron...copper...tin, etc. There are coveted diamond mines in western Somalia. There are many people who are staring at these things, but none of them really dare to reach out. The main reason is that Somalia is too chaotic, and there is no government with the final say, and no faction or race can dominate. Even if you want to cooperate, you don’t know who to cooperate. Maybe today seems that your partner is quite powerful, but tomorrow your partner has been beaten around and has no place to settle down. Just like Kismayu, I don’t know how many occupiers have changed in recent years. Sometimes it is the Islamic Court Alliance, sometimes it is the Somalia Liberation Movement, and tomorrow it is the Arab Youth Movement Alliance. How can it be described as a chaotic word?
Although the people on the road were paying attention to this foreign young man riding on the horse, no one came up to chat with Li Bin, and no one came to cause trouble for Li Bin. Because a horse robbed or even killed people in Somalia is common, but some well-informed people already know that there is a group of Chinese people coming to Heidexi Village. They are here to help the Deer people, not to mention that the horse under Li Bin’s crotch is the black zebra in the old patriarch’s house. Thinking about it, I know the relationship between this young Chinese and patriarch’s family.
Along the way, Li Bin only saw the migrant workers digging fortifications, but he did not see Zhang Rui and others. Li Bin was relieved that Zhang Rui did these things, so he simply ignored him and went straight to the military camp.
From afar, I saw a large number of people gathered at the gate of the military camp. When Li Bin saw Li Bin coming over, someone naturally rushed over and held the horse's reins. Li Bin knew that the person who came over was Ali, the platoon leader of the second platoon of the army. Li Bin jumped down from the horse and asked, "Platform Commander Ali, what's wrong with so many people?"
Ali didn't expect Li Bin to know his name, and he smiled and said, "Mr. Shi, Commander Luo Pu arranged for us to set up a conscription office at the gate of the military camp before leaving. People heard that there were still 100,000 shillings to get every month, but those who broke their heads were going to join the army. Now there are five or six hundred people registered alone, haha..."
Li Bin frowned and looked at the group of people surrounding the gate of the military camp, both men, women, young and old, but they were almost holding bottles and leaning on crutches. If two pregnant women with big belly came to join in the fun, then the recruitment would really be a spoof.
One hundred thousand shillings, which is less than 500 yuan in RMB, can get 100,000 shillings in cash every month in Somalia, which is indeed a very tempting job. However, Li Bin does not have so many weapons to use now, and he does not want to ask for weapons and equipment from the country. If arms are involved, it will be much more complicated.
Li Bin thought for a while and drew a leniency for Ali: "Ali, go and arrange it. The recruitment will only recruit unmarried people aged 18 to 25, with height and vision... and there must be some restrictions on their eyesight. All those who do not meet the requirements are not allowed to be hired."
"Yes", Ali saluted Li Bin, turned around and ran back to the crowd. He knew that the 100,000 shillings of military pay was paid by Mr. Shi every month. For example, he became the platoon leader, and he had 180,000 shillings every month, which was not a small amount. Even Commander Luopu had to be respectful to Mr. Shi, and of course he had to firmly implement Mr. Shi's orders.
As soon as Alibaba's recruitment standards were announced, there was a lot of grief among the crowds surrounding him. Ali casually drew a horizontal line on the wall. Those who were tall enough to enter the next item, and those who were not tall enough to leave directly. This saved a lot of trouble. The people gathered at the door were suddenly washed down by one-third. Of course, some people were tall enough to have a line, but they did not meet the standards in age. Unless those who seemed to be really obvious, those who were about to be different in age also passed many people. Who made this place know what the ID card was? As for the rule of unmarried, it was even more useless. Where are the people in their twenties who are not married yet? Some people here have already run around in their twenties. Those who are not married yet must be fools.
Li Bin shook his head and walked into the military camp, knowing that if he had forced himself to move to the country, he might not even be able to recruit a soldier here. He just didn't want to see the soldiers who died after they died. The misfortune of a person would become the misfortune of the family. But if he turned them out, they would probably have the same misfortune without the monthly income of 100,000 shillings.
When can we create a stable and peaceful environment and focus on developing the economy? Do we have to fight violence with violence?
