Chapter 498 - 457: Profound Benevolence and Thick Virtue Nourish Tens of Millions of People in Liaodong!
Regardless of the doctors’ suspicions, as refugees entered Chongshan Town, the entire town shifted into full operational mode.
From the General Mansion at the top, to the government offices in various places, down to the soldiers in every garrison and garrison fortress, except for Five Camps and the West Road, almost everyone had tasks to attend to.
The Five Camps were the most important combat force in Chongshan Town. To prevent any further incidents, Yang Zhenshan did not deploy the Five Camps.
As for the West Road of Chongshan Town, to the south of the West Road was Liaoxi, and since no drought occurred in Liaoxi this time, naturally, there were no refugees entering the West Road of Chongshan Town.
Therefore, the currently most idle places were the West Road of Chongshan Town, but they were responsible for defending against the Wuliang Hu Clan from the west, thus, although idle, their situation was not relaxed.
Meanwhile, almost all the rescue camps on other routes participated in the refugee escort mission.
A large number of refugees, escorted by soldiers from the rescue camps, entered the Northern lands, with the first batch of about eight hundred households being settled north of Fuzhou City, in several newly built villages.
These newly built villages were actually quite crude; each household only having three main rooms and two side rooms, along with a kitchen. The yards were planned, but to save time, no walls were built around them.
The houses were also made of the most ordinary mud bricks, with nothing in the rooms except for a heated brick bed and stove stand, making the conditions very simple.
However, even so, the refugees who came here were very satisfied.
At the least, they had food in their hands and a place to shelter, and most importantly, there was no shortage of water.
