The strongest militia

() Compared with the domestic warlord forces, in this war of resistance against the whole people, they have more of their own small calculations.While Deng Chenggong was developing the strength of the militia in the base area, he also tried his best to accumulate the strength for post-war reconstruction.Although it is still early before the end of the eight-year war of resistance, it is better to be prepared than to cram.It is precisely because of Deng Chenggong's preparation in advance that North China will become the first area where the population economy will develop first after the founding of the People's Republic of China in the future.Of course, this is something to say for the time being.

Perhaps it was because there were more foreign journalists in this sympathy group, and the little devils did not dare to easily offend the protests of so many foreign forces. Therefore, after Deng Chenggong's militia column took over, the escort troops of these little devils quickly left the militia The column's zone of control.This kind of situation where the enemy and the enemy took over but did not fight each other really made the foreign reporters present and even the representatives of all parties puzzled.

Fortunately, there is a reporter in this delegation who has a good relationship with the North China Militia Column, and he has also received an interview pass personally issued by Deng Chenggong. Reporter Tom.

Seeing the surprise on the faces of his colleagues, he said calmly: "Deng is a general who loves the people very much. As long as these Japanese soldiers don't bully the people, he will not attack the Japanese army easily. I didn't understand before, why Deng His troops are so powerful, yet they indulge the Japanese army's rule in North China so much.

But Deng told me that if they go all out to deal with the Japanese army in North China, not only will they not have the strength, but they may also attract crazy revenge from the Japanese themselves.Therefore, before he has the absolute strength to resist the crazy revenge of the Japanese army, he feels that this way of peaceful coexistence is the most suitable.

For Deng, he was a strong general, but also a general who loved the people.Therefore, in order to rule the peace of the people, he would rather let these Japanese soldiers be stationed in North China.Because of his strength, the Japanese garrison did not dare to provoke Deng's troops easily in a short period of time.This is also the reason why these Japanese soldiers can coexist peacefully with Deng's militia. "

After listening to Tom's explanation, journalists from various countries more or less understood, and this may also be a helplessness of Deng Chenggong.For other warlords, as long as they can attack the Japanese army occupying their territory, the life and death of the common people is not important.But compared to Deng Chenggong, the original intention of forming the North China militia column was to protect the environment and the people.As long as the little devil stays in the county honestly and doesn't harm the people in the base area, he won't provoke them easily.At least he felt that compared to the little devil, he was more exhausted and able to afford it.

Besides, he is only the commander of a North China militia column, and it is really rare to be able to protect the peace of tens of millions of people in the base area. In his opinion, talking big words or doing big things will only be worth the candle.Now that you understand this truth, why not choose low-key development to strengthen your own defense capabilities!

Under the protection of the cavalry regiment of the militia column, Deng Chenggong invited Mr. Yang and a group of reporters to a new immigrant village in Jiulong Mountain.Here, nearly a thousand refugees transferred from Nanhe lived, and at the same time they chose this place as the first condolence point.It was also after learning that Mr. Yang was from Nanhe Zhuxian before going abroad, Deng Chenggong checked the refugee registration information, and finally chose this immigrant village where Zhuxian refugees in Nanhe lived.

When Elder Yang saw the guards standing guard at the entrance of the village, he was a little puzzled and said, "Commander Deng, is this place not peaceful? Why are there still troops stationed at the entrance of the village?"

Deng Chenggong explained with a smile: "Mr. Yang, these are the reserve militiamen of our militia regiment, and most of them are formed by the youths in the village. When our militia column is established, we will send special personnel to inspect them. Management and military training. Although this is already the core area of ​​our base area, no one can guarantee that the little devils will not come to disturb the peace of the people that day.

The existence of these militias is more to protect the people in the village from outside harassment, and it also allows the village to have more self-defense capabilities.I'm sure you already know that there are wars everywhere in the country, if there is no one to protect these unarmed people, something will happen, and then I, Deng Chenggong, will die.Now that they are the people under my rule, I have the responsibility and obligation to protect their personal and property safety.Mr. Yang, what do you think? "

After listening to these words, Mr. Yang nodded and said: "Well, you have a good idea. Our Chinese people are honest and honest. Many times, as long as they can survive, they can survive no matter how hard it is. You can think so much about them. Considerate enough to prove that you are a general who loves the people. Come on, let's go in and have a look!"

The cavalry in charge of the avant-garde showed their credentials, and the militia guarding the security guard dutifully checked the credentials before opening the gate in front of the checkpoint at the village gate and letting Deng Chenggong and his party in.When Mr. Yang and his party appeared in the village, they did not find the same welcoming scene as other warlords.Most of the immigrants here are to open up wasteland in various flat places in the mountains and build water canals.With such a busy scene, the people who came in couldn't see that this was a group of disaster-stricken people.

Perhaps seeing the confusion in everyone's eyes, Deng Chenggong continued: "In order for these people to come to the base area to have something to do, when we selected villages, we chose places suitable for living and reclaiming fields. Out of concern for these people who came here When most of them had nothing, our base area provided them with half a year's rations for free, and provided them with tools for reclaiming farmland.

We will also send people to record and register the fields they reclaimed around the village to ensure that each immigrant household can have at least one mu of private land for each person.We don’t collect any tax in the first year of reclaimed land, but after one year we will collect [-]% of the harvest per mu according to the amount of reclaimed land as tax.They can consider storing the rest of the food themselves, or selling it to our militia columns. "

Hearing this, Qi Baihe, who hadn't spoken all the way, was a little puzzled and said: "Commander Deng, these ordinary people have such a hard life, why do you have to collect [-]% of the tax for the fields they have worked so hard to cultivate?" Woolen cloth?"

yes!This method is really novel, which makes Mr. Yang a little puzzled.

Deng Chenggong said calmly about this issue: "Perhaps you think this is too much, but in my opinion, this is also out of consideration for the further development and expansion of the militia column in the future. I believe you all know that our militia In order to cope with the attack of the Japanese army, the column formed a completely out-of-production regular militia. If we don't collect any taxes, what do you think I will use to support such a large-scale and established militia?

Another point, I think for these people who have been affected by the disaster, perhaps providing them with food and accommodation for free seems to show the benevolence and righteousness of our militia columns.But have you ever considered how long we can provide this kind of free supplies, and how much can you provide?I have heard a saying that goes, "Teaching a man to fish is worse than giving him a fish." '

If these people want to forget their former hometown and the hardships they have suffered along the way, the only way is to make them feel that there is something worth nostalgic for them in the place they live now.I believe everyone knows what it means to leave the homeland hard!

The reason why we choose these villages where there are reclaimable fields is mainly to let these people have something to do after they live.Except for one mu of reclaimed land that can be used as their private land without any tax, the rest of the reclaimed land only collects [-]% of the tax, and the tax standard is still based on their total annual harvest.

This means that if there is a disaster year or a famine year, we may not receive [-]% of the tax or we may need to use the column's grain reserves for disaster relief.But no matter what, as long as these people reclaim more land, their future life will be better, and they will regard this place as their home.

Moreover, the tax we collect is more for the development of base areas.If you walk around the village, you will find that in order to build these new immigrant villages, our militia column has already gone all out! "

In order to avoid people saying that the rescue of these people was for exploitation, Deng Chenggong had to explain carefully.When Deng Chenggong told them that the houses where the villagers now lived were all built by the militia columns for free, the representatives of the Chinese businessmen who had a bad face gradually calmed down.At least they all know that the [-]% harvest tax is already very generous compared to the people of warlords in other parts of the country.

Just as everyone was walking forward, the sound of reading books from the end of the village attracted the attention of the group. When Mr. Yang walked up to the house with the primary school archway in disbelief.After seeing the rows of children sitting on the bench in the room, there were bright smiles on their faces.Regarding the [-]% tax that Deng Chenggong said earlier, Mr. Yang already felt that compared with the treatment enjoyed by these immigrants, it was really pitiful.

Everyone knows that if a country wants to develop, the development of education is absolutely indispensable.But everyone knows that investing in education is a bottomless pit.However, under the introduction of Deng Chenggong, at present, more than [-] villages in the base area have a primary school, and in some relatively hidden and safe places in the base area, he also founded a middle school technical school. How ridiculous and absurd it is to succeed as a warlord who exploits the common people.

Just when Mr. Yang and these Chinese business representatives couldn't understand why Deng Chenggong did this, an old man sitting at the door of his house suddenly stood up and shouted cautiously towards the marching team: "Three children!"

Hearing this, Elder Yang, who had lowered his head in thought, suddenly raised his head and looked around, and soon he found the old man who called him.After staring at the old man for a long time, he said in a trembling voice: "You are Brother Goud!"

The old man found out that Mr. Yang really was someone he knew, and immediately said in tears: "Yes! I'm a bitch!"

After saying this, the two old people, both over seventy years old, couldn't help crying with their headaches in their arms. When the two stopped crying, the old man said again: "San Wazi, I didn't expect you to be alive. I heard that you are still alive. People said that you went abroad to make money, I thought I would never see you again in this life! If the big mole on your face was not there, I would not have dared to call you just now. By the way, you will come anyway here?"

Mr. Yang never thought that he would meet his childhood playmates when he returned to China this time, and he said happily: "Yes! In the third year of the Republic of China, I traveled across the ocean with a cousin to the country of America. I started, and then I started a family there and started a business. This time I heard that my hometown was hit by a disaster, and I finally couldn’t sit still and wanted to go home to see you. But when I returned to the village, I found that the village was completely flooded No one can be found.

Later, I heard that Commander Deng here went to Nanhe to rescue many victims, so I came here to try it out, and also wanted to see how the people in my hometown were doing.It's just that I never thought that you are still alive, bro!Well, this time I went back to China and it was not in vain. I can see that your brother is alive and well, even if I die, I will die in peace! "

Seemingly being nostalgic by Elder Yang's local accent, the old man seemed a little disappointed and said, "Yes! We all survived, but the thousands of people in the village don't know how many will survive in the end. Sigh! I If it weren't for the members of my militia team carrying this old bone all the way, I'm afraid we would never see each other again.

By the way, do you still remember Xiao Tianzi?Like me, he was rescued by the militia and now lives in this village. I will show you there now.I believe he will be very happy to see you back! "

Hearing that a childhood playmate he could remember was alive, Mr. Yang naturally regained his spirits, and accompanied the old man to a house in the middle of the village.When an old man also walked out of the house, Mr. Yang naturally couldn't help crying with each other again.In the end, it was a son who accompanied Mr. Yang back to the country. Worried that his father would be so emotional that his body would not be able to bear it, he hurried forward to dissuade this old man who was crying like a child.

Mr. Yang's son discussed with Deng Chenggong, and finally decided to let his father stay in the village for a while.Wait for the old man to talk about the past, and then proceed to the next step of the condolences itinerary.Naturally, Deng Chenggong would not have any opinion on this, and readily agreed to this condition.It's just because he has a lot of things to do in the base area, after handing over the consolation group to another staff member in charge of external liaison in the column, he rode back to the Yinlong base by himself.

Of course, there were three others who came back with him, and they said they wanted to visit their good sister Yanda Sanjinhua.In this regard, Deng Chenggong saw that they only brought two bodyguards and no other idlers, so he didn't say much and drove all the way back to Yinlong Base.After handing them over to the security guards and taking them to Lin's house, they quickly threw themselves into busy work, which made the three girls feel very uncomfortable!
