The village of Colkit is located on the banks of the Drin River, only 31 kilometers away from the Albanian city of Shkodra. It is located on the main route from Albania to Kosovo, so there has been an endless stream of caravans passing through the village, which also makes the village
Village residents can benefit greatly from it.
Although the number of caravans traveling on this road has decreased a lot due to the war, the income of the village has not been reduced much because the Italian army frequently passed through this area.
On a new day, the villagers got up one after another, and they were busy. The fruits and vegetables in the farmland were a huge profit for them. Although the ruler has now been replaced by a foreigner from the Apennine Peninsula, years of experience
Telling them that they have to keep to themselves will have little impact on them. After all, they need to pay taxes.
In fact, it’s not just local residents who have this idea.
There is a small military camp located two kilometers east of the village of Colkit. There is a company of Italian troops stationed here. Its main responsibility is to ensure the stability of the surrounding area and ensure that the road to Kosovo remains open at all times.
But today, the commander of the military camp, Captain Gurela, received different orders.
"Are you sure it came from the division headquarters?"
Captain Gurera already understood the order, but still wanted to confirm it again.
"Yes, this order was issued by the division commander himself."
Faced with Captain Gurera's slightly questioning words, the orderer was not surprised, because nine out of ten commanders had asked this question. Although the words of the questions were different, the core content was the same.
Hearing that the order was given by the division commander himself, Captain Gureira stopped saying anything. Captain Gureira has been in the army for a long time, and he knows a lot about the temperament of the division commander, Major General Brazo.
Division commanders rarely issue orders directly. They usually issue orders in the name of the division headquarters. Orders issued in their own name are urgent and serious orders. Such orders cannot be changed or questioned. The troops below must be 100%
Strictly implemented.
Since the messenger said this, Captain Gurela must strictly implement it even if he has any doubts.
After seeing off the orderlies, Captain Gurera called the orderlies. "Call the deputy company commander and squad platoon leader in immediately. We have a mission now."
"As you command, company commander."
As the orderlies summoned the deputy company commander and squad platoon leader one by one, a meeting on operational deployment was held in the military camp. The meeting did not last long, and it was over after an hour. Wait until the meeting is over
, after the squad and platoon leaders left, Captain Gurera said to his deputy company commander. "Next, we just need to wait for the people from the government to arrive."
The people from the government that Captain Gureira said were actually ready, but the Albanian Governor's Palace in Tirana has not yet issued an order.
Because as the governor of Albania, Viscount Aykut Demir is still a little hesitant.
Viscount Demir, who previously held a position in Italy, finally managed to become the governor of Albania this time, is also a sign of his desire to make progress. Before this, there were only two and a half governors in Italy (the governor of Sicily was under domestic pressure.
Many restrictions, can only be counted as half). Look at the Governor of East Africa and Borneo, he is simply half the Prime Minister (Last year, Governor Lanfang was renamed Governor of Borneo. From the name change, you can see Italy’s interest in the island.
ambition).
Although Italy has established three new governors this time, his ability to seize the second most important governor of Albania is also a manifestation of his ability.
One more thing, the most important governor among the newly established governors is the governor of Kosovo. Because Italy has discovered a large number of badly needed minerals in the area, it plans to invest the most money. Then there is the governor of Albania, which he serves. As for the governor of Libya, due to its vast territory
There are only a few people in the desert, and no one wants to eat the sand, so it is a location that is disliked by others.
In addition to him, the Governor of Kosovo, Mills, has just arrived. As for the Governor of Libya, Harward Jogi, he has only just set foot on that land with the army. It is estimated that even where to live is still a problem.
It's just that they didn't expect that after they were all in place and not familiar with anything, a fatal order would be sent from the country.
Expelling all the locals from the country. If someone else had given the order, no matter who it was, even the Prime Minister, Viscount Demir would have dared to spray him to pieces. This is simply adding chaos and not giving them time to prepare. You know
Before they came, the plan was not like this, and now it has suddenly undergone earth-shaking changes, and it will take time just for people to adapt.
Although he doesn't like these pagans who believe in the Koran, he can't just drive them away because of this.
Just the expulsion and the delay in immigration made him and the newly established Albanian government extremely busy.
It's just that the person who gave the order didn't dare to say anything, so he could only execute it silently.
Of course, it is impossible for him to implement this policy alone. A large number of officials are needed, and this raises another problem, that is, most of the officials sent with Viscount Demir are
I'm not ready yet.
Yes, it seems very simple to drive away the locals. You only need to send troops and officials to drive them away. But in fact, it is very complicated. You need someone to take over. In addition, you need to plan the route, arrange escort, and register the property.
a series of work.
In addition, there is another very important reason, which is to change the philosophy of officials.
Being an official in a colony and being an official at home are two different styles. In a colony, as long as you complete the work assigned by your superiors, you will not be criticized if you compensate yourself a little at other times. Look at the changes in the past few years.
The officials who returned from Borneo and East Africa all brought rich wealth, which was envied by many people. In fact, Rome was well aware of this, and this was a kind of compensation for the various risks they took.
We must know that colonial officials cause nearly a hundred casualties every year due to various diseases, accidents and other factors. Especially in Borneo, which has a tropical rainforest climate, accounting for 70%. Without adequate compensation, how can people work with peace of mind.
As for China, due to the stable environment and the political clean-up in recent years, it is no longer possible to make as much money as we did nearly ten years ago.
In China, nearly a hundred officials at all levels are sent to prison every year for corruption, bribery and other crimes.
When Rome issued an order to expel the locals, it was obvious that this place was to be operated as a native land. Since it is a native land, laws and regulations must also be implemented in accordance with the native land. This will disappoint many people, and Viscount Demir needs to first
Adjust the mentality of these people.
Viscount Demir, who had just finished the meeting, returned to his office and drank a large glass of water first.
"Governor, the military came to ask again and asked us when we will send people there."
Before he could take a breath, the secretary informed him of the military's urging.
"Tell them to give us three more days."
After hearing the secretary's words, Viscount Demir answered without raising his head.
He still didn't know what the military was thinking. He just wanted to get more benefits from this operation. That's why he kept urging himself. After all, the military had been here for several months, and he and the government officials were here.
It’s less than half a month here. There are too many operating techniques to take advantage of information asymmetry.
Viscount Demir is a man who is good at this, and the military can take advantage of this.
So the first time he came here, he immediately arranged for people to investigate. Judging from the information he has learned so far, Albania has a lot of property. Next, he needs to arrange people to keep an eye on these properties.
Three days can be said to be fast or slow, but no matter what, within three days, the government sent many people to compete with the military's troops to carry out the eviction.
