Chapter 1232 Forced by the situation

Han Zhengshan has been working in the yamen for a long time and has a thorough understanding of the thoughts of officials. Naturally, he knows that if he goes to find Tan Juren alone, it will be too traceable and leave an impression of "drilling" in the mind of his superiors.

The most appropriate thing to do is to take a few of your subordinates to have an "accidental encounter" in the name of patrolling. While earning performance, you can also find opportunities to get things done that need to be done.

The police station is located exactly between the two immigrant villages in the east and west. Adjacent to the police station are clinics, agricultural technology institutes and Tan Juren's official residence. The planning of placing the management agency between the two villages is also to facilitate the consideration of both sides.

At present, the police station has just taken over the local household registration from the military. The main work these days is to work with the immigration cadres of the Ministry of Civil Affairs to organize and archive these household registration documents. It is not a big problem to temporarily remove a few people.

The construction work of resettlement houses is concentrated in the West Village. The recently built new houses have hardly waited for the adobe walls to dry completely before they are already being arranged for immigrants to move in. However, there are still over a hundred immigrants temporarily living in tents, Tan Juren said.

He regards this as his first priority after taking office, so he has personally supervised the work on the spot in recent days.

Before Tan Juren set off from Sanya, he also expected that there would be a large number of infrastructure projects that he would need to organize after taking office, so he went to the Ministry of Construction to supplement his knowledge in the construction of private housing and civil facilities. Although he had no practical experience at all, he had to temporarily

It's not a big problem if the foreman makes a cameo appearance to supervise the construction standards.

Tan Juren doesn't have much to complain about the current construction progress. With the few people he has on hand, he is already doing a pretty good job. Of course, if there is no external threat like Johor, there should be more

With manpower available, he can arrange manpower to build farmland water conservancy projects or reclaim new land for plantations in addition to building resettlement houses. But now that there are foreign enemies, he can only take the overall situation into consideration and give priority to satisfying the military's needs.

Manpower needs.

There are actually several real foremen directing the construction site, so Tan Juren does not need to personally go to the site to operate. He only needs to sit far under the awning and drink tea, accompanied by the village chief and several elders. Of course.

Now, Tan Juren would not really be idle enough to drink tea. Since all the people in charge of affairs in the village were there, he would take this opportunity to learn more about the living and production conditions of local immigrants.

When Tan Juren was chatting happily with the villagers, he happened to see Han Zhengshan and his people "patrolling" here. He immediately called him to him and introduced him to everyone. In fact, Han Zhengshan also recognized these people, and he and the army

When Fang handed over the household registration, the heads of the two villages were present. But now that it was the boss who introduced him in person, everyone naturally cooperated and performed it again.

Han Zhengshan came with a purpose, and naturally he would not leave without saying hello, so he signaled to his subordinates to pretend to check the local residents with their household registration books, while he himself stayed with Tan Juren.

After Tan Juren finished discussing business with the villagers and sent them aside, he said calmly: "If you have anything to say, you can say it now."

Han Zhengshan didn't expect that even though he was careful to cover it up, his boss still saw through his thoughts. He didn't make any excuses at the moment and responded honestly: "As a humble official, I just want to ask the chief for instructions. Is there anything that requires the police station's help in the near future?"

Tan Juren glanced sideways at him. Although there was no expression on his face, it made Han Zhengshan's heart tighten, as if his purpose had been completely revealed.

"There is no need to arrange militia training recently. You can just handle the household registration handover." Tan Juren paused and added: "You have to stay here for at least two or three years. There are some things that don't need to be too urgent. Understand.

What do I mean?"

"I understand!" Han Zhengshan hurriedly lowered his head and responded. He could feel that his boss had indeed seen through his thoughts, and did not want him to have any overly purposeful operations, so he specially nodded at himself.

You know what the heck! Tan Juren was cursing secretly in his heart. When he was in Sanya, he also had many naturalized cadres under his command. Naturally, he was familiar with these people's eagerness to express themselves after taking power. He was beating around the bush like Han Zhengshan.

The person asking for instructions is already considered a very sensible person, so he will not speak too harshly. But the necessary instructions must still be given, otherwise Han Zhengshan will make mistakes and operate according to his own ideas, which will not be guaranteed.

Just cause some trouble.

In fact, Tan Juren was not averse to the practice of making three things happen when new officials took office. He even had such thoughts himself. When he was in Sanya, he planned a lot of development projects. After inspections on his way south, he came up with many new projects.

The ideas were all prepared to be gradually implemented after arriving at Xingdao. However, only after arriving here did I realize that many of my plans could only remain in the conceptual stage for the time being. Xingdao did not have enough objective conditions to implement them, especially various projects that required a large amount of labor.

Basically, all kinds of infrastructure projects and development projects cannot be started, and the limited number of laborers can only give priority to meeting military needs.

If it hadn't been for the Johor incident, Tan Juren would have wanted to launch a big project immediately after taking office, but the current focus of his work is to assist Roger in maintaining the normal operation of the Star Island colony, and at the same time strengthening military defense to prepare for the coming of war.

At this time, Tan Juren did not want any more troubles among the people. Especially for the security work that Han Zhengshan had just taken over, the military had completed the handover cleanly. If there were any cases here as soon as they got started, it would not be possible.

The effect of establishing prestige may make Roger paranoid and make the people uneasy.

Tan Juren was worried that Han Zhengshan would not be able to hold the scale, so he continued: "In the near future, all units must first cooperate with the military and make regular preparations for war, and all military needs will be given priority. As for the security work in the immigrant villages, I request

Can a word of stability be achieved?"

"I will do my best in my humble position." If Han Zhengshan still doesn't understand what Tan Juren means, then there is no need to be the local police chief anymore. Since the boss doesn't want to be too aggressive on his side, he should just do as he is told.

He would not be arrogant enough to disobey such an order. However, the attitude shown by Tan Juren reminded him of his previous training in the military. He had wondered whether the reason for arranging his training in the camp so urgently was because it might explode later.

During the war, he, the peace officer, needed to organize militia training as soon as possible.

However, Marcus, a black officer, did not respond to his confusion at the time, so the question remained. But now his boss says that militia training will not be organized in the near future, while giving priority to military requirements. Is this a lie?

Which direction the wind was blowing made Han Zhengshan a little confused.

Han Zhengshan wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, so he stood aside and hesitated for a long time. Seeing that he remained silent and refused to leave, Tan Juren guessed that he had something else to do, so he took the initiative to ask: "If you still have any questions, just ask.

If it’s gone, go and do your business, you don’t need to keep an eye on me here.”

Han Zhengshan gritted his teeth and said: "In this humble position...there is indeed something unclear."

"You tell me." Tan Juren didn't take it seriously. He really regarded Han Zhengshan as one of his own now. As long as it wasn't a confidential matter, he didn't mind answering questions for his subordinates.

Han Zhengshan lowered his voice and said: "I don't understand my humble position. Since there is no need to train militia recently, why should we prioritize the needs of the military in everything?"

Tan Juren responded: "We don't train militiamen because the local young people are busy at various construction sites recently and can't spare any manpower. We give priority to the needs of the military because, except for the construction sites for resettlement housing here, all the construction sites are occupied by the military."

Party’s infrastructure project, do you understand?”

"What about the farm plantation planned by the chief?" Han Zhengshan also heard Tan Juren talk about his plan on the way south, and he couldn't help asking with concern.

Tan Juren sighed and said: "We don't have the manpower right now, so we can only postpone it later. The manpower allocation must first meet the needs of the military... It may not be delayed for a long time, so let's put it down for now."

Han Zhengshan knew that Tan Juren attached great importance to his own plan. This helpless tone seemed to be a force majeure factor. But seeing that Tan Juren and Roger were chatting happily in the past few days, it should not be Roger's intention to do this.

He suppressed his superiors in matters. Then why was the military so anxious to complete the so-called project? Not only did it suspend the agricultural development project brought by Tan Juren, but also suspended the militia training?

Han Zhengshan was in the military camp a few days ago. As far as he knew, there was no sign of groundbreaking in the military camp. Obviously these projects that require a lot of labor are not in the military camp. The military will build large-scale construction outside the military camp. Han Zhengshan

What Shan immediately thought of was fortifications.

The fortifications were being repaired in such a hurry. Han Zhengshan couldn't help but think of the question he had asked Marcus about whether there would be a war a few days ago. Now that he had asked so in-depth, he boldly continued to ask: "Chief, is it right?"

…Are we going to fight?”

Tan Juren looked up at him and said, "Where did you get the news?"

Han Zhengshan hurriedly defended himself and said: "I am just making random guesses, don't blame the leader!" He quickly explained the basis and process of his conjecture to prove that he did not get the information through hearsay.

"Your errands in the past few years were not in vain!" After listening to this, Tan Juren also knew that this should be a conclusion derived by Han Zhengshan himself, and this ability must be inseparable from his experience as a head catcher for many years. To be able to have such a

Having a conscientious and professional police officer as his subordinate can save Tan Juren a lot of effort. He was previously worried that Han Zhengshan would not understand the underlying meaning, but now it seems that he is really worrying too much. This guy is not only professional but also has professional skills.

Not bad, and he knows how to deal with people, and his emotional intelligence is also good.

After hearing Tan Juren's comments, Han Zhengshan knew that the situation he guessed should be the truth, and even if there was a deviation, it would not be too much. However, how could he dare to speak nonsense about military and national affairs, and now he did not dare to take up Tan Juren's words.

Then Tan Juren said slowly: "There is some unrest outside Xingdao now, so the garrison will make some moves to strengthen the island's defense recently. There may not be a war, but sporadic small-scale armed conflicts may break out. As the security officer, you

Officer, first, you must pay attention to the mood of the people and don't let the immigrants become frightened. If war really comes, you must try to calm the people. Second, you must pay attention to daily precautions. The number of troops stationed on Star Island is limited, and there may be foreign spies lurking.

Go nearby and investigate our situation. If this is done well, you will also have a share of the credit."

Han Zhengshan hurriedly bowed his head and agreed, but secretly guessed in his heart whether Tan Juren would tell him the inside story if he didn't take the initiative to ask today. Looking back on the question he just asked, it was actually quite rash, and he didn't know how his superiors would view it.

When he was feeling uneasy, Tan Juren gave him reassurance: "Even if you don't come today, I plan to talk to you about this matter. Since you have noticed it, you can save me the trouble.

You explain slowly. Anyway, remember what I said and just do it."

"Keep your humble position in mind!" Han Zhengshan felt very relieved at this moment.

Haihan has accumulated rich military experience in the long-term foreign wars, and Roger's response method is relatively safe. Haihan sent several teams to the Johor Strait to the north to act as a guard. Only four days later

There was a real harvest. One of the teams discovered a small boat crossing the strait from the north in the early morning. After docking on the nearby coast, six people sneaked ashore. So these six people immediately became tracking targets.

, Haihan's soldiers followed them for four to five miles and determined that these people had no accomplices hiding nearby, so they decisively arrested them.

When these six people discovered that their whereabouts were exposed, they immediately drew their weapons and tried to resist. The squad leader who directed the arrest was a veteran who had fought against the Dutch on Ambrosia Island. He immediately ordered the leader to be shot.

After killing two people, the remaining four gave up resistance and fled in panic, but none of them managed to escape.

The squad leader left three people on the ground to continue monitoring the coastline, and escorted the four surviving prisoners back to the base in the south of the island immediately. Roger was very excited when he heard that he had captured alive, and ordered the prisoners to be interrogated immediately. After all the tricks,

These people all opened their mouths and confessed one after another. Roger checked what several people said, and the details were basically correct, so the credibility of the confessions was relatively high.

As Roger expected, this group of people were all from the Johor Army, and the purpose of coming here was to closely inspect the military deployment of Star Island. However, their superiors did not seem to realize that Haihan was aware of this.

Precautionary measures had been taken, but the entire group was surrounded after disembarking from the ship.

"Ask them again if there are any accomplices on the island, and what Johor plans to do next." Roger knew nothing about the local indigenous language, so he could only find a translator to help. His South China Sea Special Warfare Group

There were also people from this side, so they temporarily acted as translators for him when he interrogated the prisoners.
