"Mr. Hei, won't you let us go back to Vortex Yang?" Zhang Zongyu squinted at Hei Chenggang, the political commissar of the Liberation Army. Before the Twist Army arrived in Wuyang, the Guangfu Army sent someone to stop them in Haozhou, "If you don't let us go back to Wuyang, then where are we going?" ”

"All the people in Vortex Yang have been killed, and we have investigated this clearly. All the young and the old were killed. Hei Chenggang said frankly.

Even if he probably knew the news, and now that the people of the Liberation Army said it so directly, Zhang Zongyu's face was pale and there were tears in his eyes. Hei Chenggang continued: "The captured Hunan soldiers have all been sentenced to death, if you are willing to join the Liberation Army, you can apply to participate in the execution. But we don't let you go back to Vortex Sun, we just don't want you to go on a killing spree in Vortex Sun. ”

"Who the hell is in Vortex Sun now?!" Zhang Zongyu gritted his teeth and squeezed out words full of resentment from between his teeth.

Hei Chenggang stared at Zhang Zongyu fearlessly, not at all overwhelmed by Zhang Zongyu's murderous aura like a hungry wolf, he said in a calm tone: "Many of the people in Voryang are now displaced people recruited by the Hunan army from Henan, and according to our investigation, they did not participate in the massacre. Leader Zhang, although I don't know if you can see the problem from the perspective of our Liberation Army, I hope you can understand one thing. In the eyes of our Guangfu Army, you are the people of New China, and the displaced people in Wuyang are also the people of New China. We will not agree on whoever kills on either side. In New China, only we can decide who will die, and only we can decide who will kill people, and this is the power that the state has. No one has this power except the state! ”

The people who have rebelled in the cavalry for more than ten years are different, Zhang Zongyu, Ren Zhu and others have a murderous aura in their eyes, it is not angry eyebrows, let alone a hideous face, they even look a little calm, it is a strong will and will inadvertently revealed, that is the will that can destroy the face of difficulties. Including homicide.

Hei Chenggang was calm, he looked calmer than the leader of the Twist Army, that calm was like a rock on the seaside, no matter what kind of tide could not move him a bit. This was discussed at the meeting of the party committee, and the chaotic times in the liberated areas have come to an end, and the first sign of the end of the chaotic times is naturally that the state has taken over all judicial power. Moreover, the new government has swept away the old yellow calendar of the previous imperial power of the county, and the Republic of China is working hard to build a grassroots government.

At that time, Guangxi was also a mess, and the Tujia Hakka had a vendetta against each other. There is no shortage of old Guangxi brothers in the Guangfu Army, and these old Guangxi brothers are not soft at all in Guangxi. Not only did they send troops to force the local villages and towns to personally dismantle the enclosures and earthen ramparts they had erected. Whoever dares to think that this era is still chaotic and takes advantage of the chaos to kill people, the government will send troops to suppress it. It's okay to honestly hand over the murderers, and the government will get everyone in the area where the murderer and the victim are located to visit the public trial and be shot.

If the murderers are not handed over honestly, the government can only arrest these people and torture them. There is only one target, and the killer must be handed over and publicly executed by the government. The people from other villages who originally passed through the village are likely to disappear inexplicably, some because they are favored for money, some because the local clans want to show their prestige in this one-third of an acre, or simply some "heroes" who suddenly want to kill someone in a moment's time. When the government is unable to go deep into the grassroots, it kills people, and at most people in each village dare not go to other villages.

After two or three years of vigorous repression, 40,000 or 50,000 "Guangxi heroes" were publicly executed, and the atmosphere in Guangxi changed. First of all, there were many contacts between villages, and within a few years, even intermarriages between villages began. China has a deep cultural tradition, and although the theory may not be clear to everyone about the danger of consanguineous marriage, in fact, we have seen many cases. As a result of the lack of contact between the old and the dead in the villages, the number of intermarriages between close relatives has increased, and the proportion of children with deformities has increased. When these artificial obstacles were swept away, the number of people who exchanged relatives between villages naturally increased.

With Guangxi's successful case, the government has become emboldened in exercising state power at the grassroots level. Those who resist the state can be killed, and the thunder means to show the bodhisattva's heart This sentence is even somewhat popular in government agencies, and the Chinese people are so realistic. When the state dares to use violence to solve the problems of the people, the people immediately become popular and peaceful.

As a local armed force with war experience, it is better to simply make it clear than to let them go back to the local area and do something wrong, and finally the government will come forward to exterminate them. This seems cruel, and the contradiction will directly intensify to a great height, but only in this way is the truly responsible attitude.

The wordless confrontation lasted for a while, and Zhang Zongyu suddenly sneered, "Do you want us to serve under you?" ”

Hei Chenggang replied calmly: "It is your choice whether you are willing to join the Liberation Army, the new government has the rules of the new government, if you want to fight, there is a place to fight, and after fighting the bad guys in the country, we still have foreigners to fight." But in the new government, killing people is the government's business, and no one can take this power away from the government. Whoever takes it, we will not let anyone go! Now it's our new government that makes the rules! ”

"Do you have to deal with our Twister?" Ren Zhu took over.

"Our Liberation Army will not watch people put down dishes, and what to do now is for your brothers to make their own choices." Hei Chenggang immediately pushed back the words. There must be some people in the Twist Army who are not convinced, and there is no reason for the Guangfu Army to do anything special to the Twist Army. If you treat them one by one, who can stand it! When the Liberation Army was purging Shantouism internally, it was not one or two that it was clear, but Wei Ze withstood the pressure and cut those thorns clean. Anyone who feels that he should listen to the organization's arrangements can stay. Anyone who feels that he has a reason not to listen to the orders of the organization should get out. The internal purge is still like this, and there is no need for a thorn like the twisting army.

Ren Zhu didn't entangle, he said with a straight face: "Let's discuss it again!" ”

After Hei Chenggang left, Zhang Zongyu said angrily: "The Liberation Army really wants us to bow our heads!" ”

The most disgusting thing for the heroes is to be put in such shackles, they have always relied on themselves, and they are extremely disgusted with completely obeying the orders of others. And the Guangfu Army also clearly told the heroes of the Twist Army that they had no choice but to be obedient. Zhang Zongyu and others don't want to reason with the Guangfu Army, and the truth on the rivers and lakes is who has the big fist. The fist of the Liberation Army is much larger than that of the Twist Army, and the war has proven this.

Ren Zhu said: "Otherwise, let's admit it first." ”

The Guangfu Army, which came to Haozhou to stop the Twist Army, sent a cavalry regiment, the number of which was not as large as the Twist Army, and the high-headed horses and the sophisticated equipment all made the Twist Army see the strength of the Twist Army. What's more, the Twist Army is already preparing to defect to the Guangfu Army, and they are just trying to get a better treatment for themselves at this time. From this point of view, the conditions offered by the Liberation Army did not exceed the bottom line of the Twist Army. Don't let the Twist Army run to kill people everywhere to vent their anger, even in the rivers and lakes, it is a basic rule. Vortex Yang is now not the territory of the Twist Army, but the territory of the Liberation Army. How can you allow others to do whatever they want on your own turf?

The other leaders present at the meeting also had no opinion, and the next day the Twist Army reached an agreement with the Liberation Army, and they were willing to obey the orders of the Liberation Army.

The Guangfu Army immediately made arrangements, first of all, to rectify the Twist Army, and all the Twist Army who were willing to go home to farm the land were to be resettled in the Army Farm in Wuyang. Political commissars were sent to the rest of the troops to reorganize the entire unit.

Lei Hu also has different opinions, some people think that it is not to send the Twist Army to the front line to fight. The Guangfu Army is now relatively short of cavalry, and the Twist Army has nearly 10,000 cavalry and tens of thousands of horses, which will definitely have a great effect after being put into the front line.

Lei Hu vetoed it at the time, "It's not them immediately after these people make some credit, and now it's the first priority to let them be honest." ”

This is the case in Guangxi, among the troops recruited locally, there are also Tujia and Hakka, and when the Guangfu Army suppressed the local Haoqiang, it was the Tujia who also suppressed it, and the Hakka also suppressed it. This caused a certain amount of chaos within the army, the Tujia soldiers were unhappy when the Tujia were suppressed, and the Hakka soldiers were unhappy when the Hakka were suppressed, and there were even small-scale rebellions within the army at that time.

In addition to political education, the management of the government was carried out without discrimination for several years, and a consensus was reached within the army. Everyone has to listen to the CMC, and everyone has to listen to the government. Meritorious service can only be promoted when serving the party and the government, and those who think that after meritorious service have the capital to bargain with the party and the government, such people must be eliminated. Political power can only exist when it serves the party and the government, which is the iron law of the Guangfu Party and the Guangfu Army.

Lei Hu had a tough attitude, and other comrades did not dare to touch this political issue, but since this issue was raised, there was no way for everyone to avoid this issue.

The chief of staff asked tentatively: "The governor said before that the enthronement ceremony will be held after we take Beijing. Now that Beijing is about to take it, will the governor forget about it? ”

As soon as this question was raised, everyone in the Northern Expedition Command came to the spirit. Wei Ze becoming the emperor and officially ascending the throne are two different things, Wei Ze becoming the emperor is just a gesture of the new government, and the official enthronement will establish the national system, and all the meritorious ministers will have a new positioning. Their power, their rewards, their position in the state.

No one will turn a blind eye to the key points of the past and the future.
