Rise of the 1630s South America

Chapter 136 East Coastism ([-])

The children of the Academy Corps arrived at Dingyuan Fort in the afternoon.

Dingyuan Township can basically be regarded as the second wealthiest township unit in the East Coast Republic of China.The population of [-] and a large number of factories support the economic prosperity of Dingyuan Township.

Dingyuan Baobao City is currently the office of the township government and some institutions and factories. With the stable life of the people in Dingyuan Township and the gradual economic development, today's Dingyuan Baobao City has begun to show its prosperous side.

Along the moat outside the city is a row of bungalows with a brick and wood mixed structure. This is a newly built market.The market is held every rest day and national statutory holidays. As the purchasing power of the people gradually increases, some folk craftsmen begin to set up stalls here to sell some things to subsidize their families.

There are itinerant hawkers making chocolate candies, artisans making ethnic handicrafts and Charuya selling game.And as more and more people own land, some nearby farmers will also take advantage of the crowded time of the market to pick the vegetables or fruits produced in their fields to the market for sale.There are several factories near Dingyuan Fort, and there is also a military academy in the fort, with a large number of consumers, so the business of these stalls is pretty good.

According to the plan, the children of the Academy Corps will rest here for one night in Dingyuan Fort, and then set off the next day.Therefore, after settling more than 100 children from the Academy Corps, while it was still early, Mo Ming, who was idle and bored, began to wander around inside and outside Dingyuan Fort.

Mo Ming, who hasn't been shopping for many years, is wearing the black uniform of the General Intelligence Bureau. The double-headed eagle on the chest - the emblem of the yin-yang fish is shining in the sun.The tax collectors of the Ministry of Finance and the police officers of the police station who were wandering in the market all raised their hands respectfully when they saw it.

This is the national emblem that only cadres are eligible to wear. They low-level officials don't know how many years they have to climb to reach this level.

In addition to these hawkers selling various goods in the market, there is also a special propaganda team.This team is a subordinate unit of the Ministry of Education, and it is dedicated to touring all over the country to release various news about neighboring La Plata, Brazil or the Old Continent.Of course, the content of the news is carefully selected, and it is basically all negative news about European countries and churches in the Old Continent.The Ministry of Education tries to inspire immigrants to compare their current and previous lives through this continuous smear campaign, and to enhance their sense of belonging and identity with the East Coast.

As for the effect, probably only God knows. Anyway, the members of the propaganda team, such as the old friends of the time-travelers Father Pedro, Pastor Francis and Sheriff Lucio, worked very hard.Mo Ming shook her head. Assimilating these adults whose three views have basically been fixed is obviously half the result with twice the effort, but this matter needs people to do it, and they cannot be left alone.Adults should leave it to your Ministry of Education to do the work. The future of the country still depends on the next generation.Only when the next generation is firmly in control, then the rule of the Transmigration Congregation will be truly stabilized.

In addition to government agencies, factories, schools, shops and other facilities in Dingyuan Fort City, there are also many small shops and small workshops run by private individuals.For example, a tailor shop for making ready-made clothes, a woodworking workshop for making furniture, an oil pressing workshop, a workshop for making soy sauce, a tofu mill, a winemaking workshop, etc.

With the increase of people's purchasing power, the demand for daily household items has gradually increased.In recent months, more and more people have gone to Dingyuanbao Industrial and Commercial Office to register and set up private enterprises such as trading companies, workshops or workshops. Their existence has also effectively prospered the local economy.

Rest for one night in Dingyuan Fort Military Station.On the second day, a total of 165 doll apprentices began to gather on the school grounds in the city.Sergeant Henry, an instructor sent by the army (as a French translator), assisted Mo Ming, Liu Ang and others to organize the team. After the queue was sorted, the whole team went to the cafeteria for dinner.

Before the meal, Liu Ang negotiated with Dingyuan Fort with the special supply form issued by the Executive Committee, and Dingyuan Fort sent over a dozen Irish chefs to come over with a large bucket of food.Each student's breakfast consists of two patties, a small plate of pickles, a boiled egg, two fried dough sticks and a small glass of milk. There is no doubt that this breakfast is luxurious and precious, and it is a custom to eat together from the side. It can be seen from the envious eyes of the cadets of the Far Army Military Academy.

There is no luxury food such as milk in the breakfast allocated to them, and eggs are not available every day.The executive committee really cares about these kids, this food is the breakfast standard of the time traveler, Mo Ming sighed inwardly.

After breakfast, Sergeant Henry started his daily routine lectures under Liu Ang's gesture.

"You, what's your name?" Sergeant Henry asked casually, pointing to a little boy about 10 years old.

"I... My name is... Mateo, Mateo Dobbs." The little boy seemed a little nervous and stammered.

"Where is your Chinese name? Didn't your instructor tell you when you first came here?" Sergeant Henry slammed the pointer on the dining table and said sternly.

"Ma... Mateo." The little boy was about to cry, but he finally pronounced his name in his not-so-fluent Chinese.

"Very good, now you sit down." Sergeant Henry nodded with satisfaction, and then continued: "Most of you may be orphans, but today I want to tell you that you are not without relatives. All of you Brothers and sisters! Look at the people sitting next to you, you will live, study, train, labor and even fight together for many years to come! When you cry, when you are hurt, when you are in trouble, you The brothers and sisters around you are the only ones you can rely on besides the Executive Committee. From now on, you are all brothers and sisters, the Executive Committee is your common father, and the East Coast Republic of China is your motherland. Everything about you today They are all provided by the executive committee. You are able to sit here under the protection of the East Coast Republic of China. In the future, you must resolutely safeguard the authority of 'father', bravely defend the interests of 'mother', and wipe out all the enemies standing in front of you. .”

Sergeant Henry spoke impassionedly, while Mo Ming carefully observed the performance of the children.Perhaps it was because these children were generally young, most of them had dazed expressions on their faces, and they didn't seem to be touched.But it doesn't matter, this is just the beginning, and someone will repeat these words in their ears in the future, until this belief becomes a deep imprint in their souls.

After Sergeant Henry finished speaking, Liu Ang also went up to say a few words.

"Students, you may come from various regions and nationalities, but today you are all from the East Coast. It is the East Coast Republic of China that gave you everything you are today. It is this country that protects you, giving you food, clothing, and You live, let you receive education, all you have to do is to study hard, train hard, return to the country when you grow up, support the leadership of the executive committee, and defend the interests of the country." Liu Ang said, "You are the East of the new era. Shore people receive the most systematic and scientific education in the world. The executive committee is cultivating you as the successors of the country. This country is not only ours, but also yours. You are the children of the executive committee. The pillars of the country will fight against foreign aggression forces and domestic separatists in the future, and at any time and under any circumstances, don’t forget the principle of being a Dong’an person—that is, to defend the interests of the motherland.”

After the ideological education in the morning, the members of the Academy Corps carried their small bags, and under the escort of the leading instructors and soldiers of the cavalry unit, they embarked on the journey southward to Luocha.For young them, this level of marching is not easy to complete.Just in case, Dingyuan Fort also temporarily dispatched three large vehicles to accompany them to rescue students who might not be able to continue marching due to various reasons at any time.

On the evening of October 10th, after two days of trekking (with a camp camp in the middle), the cavalry regiment finally arrived at the station of the Fortress in the Rocha area at the foot of the Xiling Mountains .

There are three platoons of Army soldiers (two platoons of infantry and one platoon of artillery) stationed in the Corps Fort, as well as a large number of instructors and administrative staff of the Academy Corps.The group of students who arrived earlier and the group of new arrivals made up a total of 238 students, and these 238 students were all the students of the first phase of the Executive Committee's Guards Corps.

The 238 students were divided into 4 companies, each with 60 people (the 4th company has 2 people temporarily missing).In order to ensure the quality of education, various ministries and commissions under the executive committee worked together to mobilize a large number of time-travelers (many of whom were former middle school teachers) and a small number of immigrants to act as instructors to teach these students various aspects of knowledge.

On October 1635, 10, after a day's rest, the cadets of the four companies of the first phase of the Executive Committee's Guards Corps, which had placed everyone's unlimited expectations, officially started school.Due to language problems, these students will spend a long time learning Chinese in pain. In addition to language learning, they will also be accompanied by brainwashing and physical training. In short, the instructors of the Xuebing Corps will not waste of any time.

In addition to studying, they will also take care of the cotton fields opened outside the city.The Corps of Soldiers has opened up a total of 238 mu of cotton fields, and each person is responsible for one mu of cotton. He is responsible for everything from sowing to harvesting. Finally, the harvest of cotton can be regarded as a large assessment item.

While the Academy Corps was busy studying, Shao Shude was sitting on a shallow inland river transport ship full of iron ore in the Changshanbao Iron Mine Area, which was surrounded by mountains, and was heading downstream along the gentle canal.The final destination of the transport ship is Ping An Fort, which is hundreds of kilometers away.

This is the first book I wrote, and it is on the shelves for the first time. I hope you will support me a lot.
