Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 255: Chapter 173: Population, Production, Trade_4

The tragic decimation of Osenia's family was beginning to become all too common in the Green Valley Region.

Even estate owners and planters couldn't endure it, let alone ordinary civilians.

Selling arms and equipment to the Green Valley Region was meant to help them better resist the monster waves.

And not just selling arms, either.

While up in the sky, Gu Hang had heard reports about the Green Valley Region, and he was also greatly concerned about the situation there.

The rampant devastation caused by the mutant monster tides was certainly intolerable.

With a population of ten million, the Green Valley Region was a vast peninsula covering more than two thousand kilometers east to west, and over five thousand kilometers from north to south, narrowing towards the south, its overall terrain somewhat resembling the Indian Peninsula from Gu Hang's world before the crossing, with possibly even better natural and geographical environments.

The vast, fertile land and the ample population... These were some of the finest areas on Rage Owl Star.

Gu Hang couldn't tolerate the destruction of this land, nor could he allow the needless loss of too many lives in this disaster from the ten million population.

Currently, the Alliance didn't have enough strength to dispatch sufficient troops to such a vast area as the Green Valley Region to address the mutant beast issue there. Continue reading on ???

But this didn't prevent him from planning ahead.

Exchanging arms for food, or even sending military advisors and diplomats directly to the Green Valley Region.

Diplomats were helping survivors who had been displaced to come together; encouraging the remaining struggling plantations to form mutual aid organizations; convincing those plantations not yet struck by disaster to understand the principle that one's own survival depended on the survival of all, urging them to contribute money, effort, and manpower in support and vigilance with their neighbors.

The military advisors, along with the traded arms, were sent to assist the local forces resisting the monster waves in building their military.

The local situation wasn't something that could be explained in a sentence or two, and the issues in Green Valley were not just conflicts between humans and monsters.

But let's not delve into more complex matters for now; at the very least, Gu Hang hoped that the personnel dispatched could minimize the damage to the Green Valley Region, saving one more life and preserving one more grain of food if possible.

When he was finally able to free up resources to mobilize a real task force to the Green Valley Region to reclaim lost territory, it would be beneficial to have retained even a fraction of vitality there.

...

The rest of the report wasn't all that important.

Patel discussed the industrial situation in Weixing City;

Lambert talked about the legal system construction in the Twin Cities Region. He detailed the establishment of relevant legal provisions, court construction, law enforcement team development, intelligence system setup, anti-corruption issues...

He had indeed been officially appointed as the Chief Justice of the Alliance, under whose administration there were three committees: the Legislative Committee, the Executive Committee, and the Discipline Committee.

The legislative members were the fewest, responsible for establishing legal provisions at the behest of the governor; the executive was principally involved in law and order; discipline was mainly aimed at anti-corruption.

Gu Hang placed particular emphasis on the work of the Discipline Committee.

He was acutely aware that under the New Alliance's highly centralized, planned economic system, the ability to focus resources on major tasks was a prime advantage, allowing for undertakings that might yield little short-term benefit but massive long-term gains. However, issues of systemic rigidity and corruption could be fatal to the new system.

As for systemic inflexibility, Gu Hang had already seen Osenia seeking solutions, with encouragement mainly focused on private and market-oriented economic practices.

Corruption wasn't yet an apparent problem, since in theory, the new regime had only been established for three to four months and shouldn't have significant issues.

But this matter required nipping in the bud. If allowed to grow into a pervasive, systemic problem before addressing it, solving it wouldn't be a simple pain.
