Chapter 481 Military Control and Processing
“Send people to inform all the wealthy businessmen, bankers, and factory owners in Xinshak City that I will hold a meeting later to discuss the construction of shelters and energy towers in the New World. Regarding matters, factories and companies that have had business dealings with the Northern Territory before, as well as construction companies, will be notified first, so that they can prepare accordingly." Purficott was sitting in the original governor's office, dealing with various matters in the New World. official business.
Due to the governor's rebellion, the current government of the entire New World colony can almost be said to have been taken away in one round. The heads of all important functional departments were taken away for review, and most of the ones left behind were unimportant. small role.
And even the remaining civilian officials of the Governor's Mansion are like frightened quails and are of no use at all.
This forced Purficott to transfer some civilian officials from the north to take over the government affairs of the New World, and only then could the colonial government of the New World be re-operational.
But this is not enough.
The impact of this governor's rebellion was huge, and the subsequent problems it caused were even more serious.
A series of problems caused by the shutdown of the entire colonial government were now piled on Purficott's desk, making her have to hold her nose to deal with it all.
She can just ignore it, it's not her job.
Perficott can put all this aside and wait for the empire to send a new governor to take over.
But in its current form, it would take at least a week for the empire to send out a new governor, and it would take at least half a month after the new governor arrived to get the colonial government up and running again.
This was unacceptable to Purficott.
She could not tolerate the suspension of the New World colonies for at least a month at this critical moment.
So after arriving in Xinshak City, she directly took over the command of the four northern infantry regiments that arrived in the New World, sent them to several important cities in the New World colony, and implemented military control over them .
Under the control of the military, the city has now restored order, but the problem has not been solved in any way.
The city's supply of energy, food and various consumables, the accumulated official duties of various government departments, and the various problems caused by the traitor governor's extortionate expropriation of the entire New World colony in order to form an army...
If we leave it alone... , it will only cause greater riots in these cities within a month, and then Purficott will really throw thermobaric bombs down.
And more importantly, once these riots spread, they will spread to the north.
This is dangerous and deadly. For Purficott, she absolutely cannot tolerate riots in the New World that will affect the North.
So, now she can only think of ways to restore the suspended colonial government to operation, and at the same time solve the problems of the New World colonies as much as possible.
Fortunately, the previous peace agreement had been approved by the imperial center, and Purficott no longer needed to deal with the Revolutionary Army.
On the contrary, with Kallen's active cooperation, the original Workers' Federation branches in major cities in the New World colonies also cooperated with Perfectcott, not only resuming production, but also taking the initiative to take on related tasks. Government functions, working hard to maintain order in the city, and cooperating with the people in the north to get the city back on track. While he was busy with these things, Purficott also had another issue that needed attention, and that was the construction of shelters and energy towers.
Currently, in the entire empire, only the northern border and the empire mainland have built shelters and energy towers.
The northern border has completed most of the construction of shelters and energy towers, and is now only further expanding the number to ensure that it can accommodate more people.
According to Purficott's original estimate, the maximum population that the North could accommodate was about two million to three million. This was a conclusion she reached three years ago based on the data and technology she already had.
However, the breakthroughs in various technologies in the past three years have been better than Purficott expected, especially the ability to use alchemy to synthesize compressed biscuits, which greatly reduced the pressure on food and made the North In addition to being able to accommodate a larger population, Perficott can also try to build more shelters and energy towers in the empire, so that the people in the empire will not be completely abandoned.
The situation in the New World colonies is also very different. Originally, according to the plan three years ago, the New World colonies were also abandoned.
After all, given the situation at the time, even if Perfectcott wanted to help them, she didn't have the spare power.
So from the beginning, Purficott never considered preserving the New World colonies, and because of this, she tried to support Karen so that she could seize control of the New World colonies at this critical moment.
When the doomsday comes, if there is not a strong and efficient leadership group, then even if these people survive the first wave of cold wave when the doomsday comes, there will be a large number of survivors who will not have enough food and clothing later. and other supports and died.
According to Purficott's original idea, a government led by the proletariat is always better than the herd of colonial governments.
But at that time, this was just a casual move for Purficott. She was not sure that Kallen could do what she expected, so she didn't think about it at all.
At that time, Purficott had to focus all her energy on the construction of the northern territory, and she did not have much time to care about other things besides that.
However, judging from the current results, Kallen is still very satisfied. Whether it is the spread of revolutionary ideas, the formation of the workers' federation, or the establishment of the revolutionary army, these things have made Purfi Kurt felt a sense of surprise.
But when things get to this point, it's time to put the brakes on, otherwise Karen and the revolutionary army will really have to face the suppression of Purficott.
This is also the main reason why Purficott will intervene and guide the peace talks this time. She does not want to carry out brutal suppression, although there is such a plan in her original plan.
The reason is that she now has enough time to sort out the situation in the New World colonies and help them build shelters and energy towers so that they can withstand wind and snow.
In the face of disasters, a larger population does mean a greater burden, but at the same time a larger population also means a greater ability to resist risks.
And to put it more utilitarian, the existence of the Northern Territory needs to suck blood from the New World to maintain it. Even if Purficott only imports it for the purpose of obtaining resources and labor, he still needs to ensure the normal operation of the New World colony.
Otherwise, if riots spread from the New World to the Northern Territory, even if she can suppress it, it will still have a considerable impact on the Northern Territory.
