Chapter 571 (1/2)
Ironfelt, Netherland.
In the past, some decaying cities have taken on new vitality in the past two years. When you enter the city, you can hear the beating of iron coming from the streets.
The sound is rhythmic, followed by the sound of steel into the oil, quenching boiling. Rows of neat brick red factories stand in the open space on the north side of the city, and long smoke pipes are emitting bursts of black smoke from morning to night.
Although the city has become noisy, it is also full of vitality. It is the breath of prosperity. The peddlers, travelers, hawkers, women and children together build the city of steel.
Since the arrival of Lorraine hill two years ago, steel mills have been built here and skilled craftsmen have been trained on a large scale. Almost one out of every two indigenous households works in the factory.
Compared with most of the miners and farmers who used to work in factories and become skilled workers, their wages are much higher, and the factories usually have some welfare and security. If an employee is injured in an accident, the medical expenses will also be covered by the factory.
After working for a certain number of years, there will also be a pension mechanism, doing some leisure warehouse guard work, or paying a part of the money every year.
Now the county capital has attracted most of the surrounding mountain residents, making it move to the city, and then a variety of shops and industries have flourished.
On the main street at the gate of the city, six horsemen were on the road. When people around them see it, they avoid pedestrians one after another, and they also evade pedestrians by virtue of their superb riding skills.
Finally, they came to the city master's residence and stopped. After showing the token and documents representing their identity, they were immediately welcomed in by the people among them.
More than half an hour later, these people went out with the city master and came to the central square.
Dong——
The sound of the big bell is particularly prominent in the noisy city. After many people hear it, they gradually gather in the center of the square. They are crowded. They are mainly dressed in blue and gray and look at the people in the center.
These are the leaders and chief executives of tiefelt city.
”Silence, everyone.” The city master drank it with great spirit, and the scene was quiet.
”There's something to announce today.”
”A lot of people know that the country is fighting against the cold frost now, and the original garrison of the county has also transferred a lot of troops to Wangdu. After rectification, they went south with the army to the border.”
”Considering that the war will not end in a short time, and that the local area also belongs to the border, the Heiyan principality on the north side is not secure, so now the United Front preparation department has issued another order.”
”First, from now on, we will launch a new round of conscription. The age of conscription is 18-36 years old. Those who have received military training will be given priority if they have physical fitness requirements.”
”Second, trade in grain, cloth, steel, weapons and armor is restricted, and the volume of trade is taken over and allocated by the government.”
”Third, all residents aged 15-55 take turns to receive basic military training as reserve service, and then prepare for possible crises.”
”Hard times are coming. The government knows that everyone is working hard during this period, working overtime to build armor and weapons. In the first round of conscription, considering that the county had made great sacrifices in the revolution, the number of places allocated to our county was also reduced to keep more kindling. ”
”However, even so, I hope you will not forget the sufferings of the past and the hard won beauty of the present. Only by making swords with swords and ending wars with wars, can you defend everything today.”
”Fight, keep fighting, move forward, keep moving forward, this is the will of clancia.”
”Let's face all this with pride and calm, these sufferings will become sharpening stones, and we will also win!”
As the most old revolutionary base and the birthplace of the uprising, the people in nideshire are proud of clancia, and they also have a sense of honor that outsiders can hardly understand. After the old city star spoke, this accumulated emotion also broke out.
