Chapter 540
Heihe Base…
Liao Mingyu stood on the roof of the building, overlooking the forest in front of him. The main building was on a high ground, and his field of vision could cover most of the base. This has also become his favorite place for quiet solitude.
"Oh, it's the 29th..."
With a sigh, Liao Mingyu showed a rare look of melancholy on his face. He calculated that it would be 1945 in two days, and the world structure would be redefined in more than half a year. He didn't have much time left.
Nowadays, the construction of the base is gradually improving, and all the basic industrial facilities have been built. In addition to the military management area, a new residential area has been built near the mine.
As time went by, the residential area originally used to house miners' families gradually formed the scale of a village and town, and at the same time attracted a large number of nearby people to gather here.
More and more people in central Myanmar have learned that there is such a place where they can not only live and work in peace and contentment without being persecuted by war, but also where people will send you supplies, help you build a house, and even provide you with a job. It is simply a paradise.
Currently, more than 30,000 people live here, and this number is still growing. The original residential area is also expanding. In three months, it has turned into a lively town covering five or six square kilometers.
There is even a trend of developing into a small city.
The town starts near the mining area and extends along the plain to near the Heihe River. The terrain here is flat and there is a large river ensuring sufficient water sources. It is very suitable for farming and planting, which is one of the reasons for the rapid development here.
Due to the increase in population, a series of people's livelihood facilities have to be built, as well as public security, transportation, and medical care. These are all matters that need to be arranged.
Now I am very busy. Although the frontline is still fighting, the basic livelihood construction in the rear is also a top priority. The top management of the 88th Army gradually divided into two systems. Fan Shaozeng took the initiative to retreat to the second line and began to form a provisional government to manage the interior of the base area.
Various administrative matters.
If you want to carry out construction, you need a lot of manpower. In addition to the recruited laborers and volunteers organized by the people, the only thing left is to rely on the army to fill the gap.
The front-line troops have been in frontline battles for a long time and cannot be separated, and the guard regiment is responsible for base defense and cannot afford to lose anything. At this time, the raw melon eggs in the recruit camp have become the best candidates. In addition to military training, they usually do
The biggest thing is to participate in local construction.
Liao Mingyu planned to form a unified construction corps before decentralizing them to combat units. While training, he also planned to make them responsible for the reconstruction work and daily defense work in various parts of Mandalay.
Building roads, building houses, renovating farmland... These guys have become all-rounders. Let them help civilians rebuild their homes, and they can also establish a collective military-civilian integration development strategy to make the people more trust the expeditionary force, the new "big boss of the sky."
Liao Mingyu even did not hesitate to install a push bucket in front of the tank and transform it into a bulldozer for road construction. The tank factory is also working hard to produce wheeled trucks and join the engineering team of the Construction Corps.
In just a few months, the Heihe area has been completely transformed. Not only have a large number of houses and factories been built, but also several wide roads and water diversion canals have been built. The large golden rice fields in the fields indicate a bumper harvest this year.
.
In addition, medical and health care is also a key point, especially the health situation of some local indigenous people is extremely poor. Most of them have more or less physical problems, such as dysentery, leprosy, and even some tropical infectious diseases.
It will also bring some trouble to the people inside the base.
Liao Mingyu was the one who despised the suffering of the people the most. He immediately arranged to build a health hospital in the residential area. Some of the manpower was transferred from the field hospitals of various armies. In addition, some medical staff recruited from China were recruited to help the residents solve their medical problems.
.
"Junzuo..."
Ding Xiaoer's voice came from behind, and the boy rushed up from the stairs quickly, taking three steps and two steps at a time.
"What's the matter? You're in a hurry." Liao Mingyu glanced back and asked.
"Jun Zuo, the medical assistance team of the Third Division has arrived at the base area, and that...sister-in-law is also among them. Why don't you go over and take a look first?"
When he heard this, Liao Mingyu's eyes lit up, because among the medical staff transferred back, there was someone he cared about very much.
Xiaozui...that innocent and stubborn silly girl, has followed the army from north to south since she entered the medical department of the Honorable Third Division. During this period, she has been staying in Li Lei's field medical team to save lives and heal the wounded on the front line.
In fact, Liao Mingyu still had some selfish motives. When he regained Nankan some time ago, he originally wanted to transfer Xiaozui there. It was safer than being on the front line. This country was in such chaos that wars were going on almost every day. Who could guarantee that something would go wrong?
Not out either.
But the girl was very stubborn and would rather stay on the front line and suffer hardship than go to the rear to enjoy it. As a result, Liao Mingyu had no choice but to sternly tell Long Wenwen and Li Lei that they must protect the safety of the military medical team.
If it weren't for the large number of medical staff needed in the base area this time, and the important people named by Liao Mingyu, I guess that girl wouldn't be willing to come over.
"Ahem, don't worry about this now, what about...have all the people sent to Zenda come back?"
Liao Mingyu suppressed the turmoil in his heart, coughed in a pretentious manner, and changed the subject calmly. The dignity of a superior should still be maintained, and no matter what, I can't let this kid like you see the joke.
"Oh... they have arrived in Mandalay. Don't worry. Captain Gong of the third battalion went to pick them up in person. It's just that Mr. Meng suffered a bump on the road and is unwilling to continue moving. He may have to stay in Mandalay for a few more days.
It’s day…” Ding Xiaoer reported truthfully.
Now that the base area has been successfully established, the situation is slowly developing in many places, and the relationship with the domestic high-level officials is already in a very delicate state, which has to force Liao Mingyu to take some actions.
Some time ago, he specially sent a team of people back to Zenda to pick up the families of several old brothers. On the one hand, he would let his brothers have no worries, and on the other hand... it was to avoid being raped by those in the country.
Help others take advantage of loopholes.
After all, the old brothers under him are basically in important positions, and there are some things that have to be guarded against. Don't wait until you are really embarrassed and threatened by others. You must know that the Chongqing man did many assassinations and kidnappings in the later stages of the war.
thing.
"Haha, Meng is annoyed that I am still so difficult to take care of. Just let him go. Anyway, just send him safely to Heihe."
Liao Mingyu shook his head helplessly. Everyone knew Mr. Meng's temper. He could imagine how difficult it was along the way. Captain Gong, who was leading the team, probably had to strain his teeth every day.
Although the entire Mandalay Province is under the control of Liao Mingyu, compared with other places, the Heihe base is obviously superior to Mandalay or Meiktila and other places in terms of geographical location and industrial facilities.
Not to mention that those places are still in half ruins waiting for reconstruction, it would be better to bring people here than anywhere else.
"Ding... battle report reminder... the Chiang Mai battle is over. Congratulations to the host for winning the final victory of this battle. The battle situation is as follows..."
He was originally going to the hospital to visit the beauty he had not seen for a long time, but unexpectedly, the system prompt sounded in his mind. Liao Mingyu took a deep breath and immediately turned around and walked towards the main control room:
"You go over to make arrangements for the medical team first. I have to go to the command room. No one is allowed to disturb without my order..."
