Chapter 7: Yongxing (7)
"Land reform is related to all generations, if the farmer has no land, or he can't support himself by farming, what can he do if he doesn't rebel? The implementation of land reform is to enable everyone to live in the future. ”
The propaganda in the Fourth Army was concise and to the point, and Shen Xin was actually not too confident in such propaganda. The propaganda effect that can be used as a reason for the country and the world was beyond his expectations, and the support within the Liberation Army was immediately expressed, and the voice of open opposition disappeared without a trace. At least in public, there is no longer any dissenting opinion.
Shen Xin was also worried that everyone would not dare to speak, so he also participated in many meetings and asked comrades for their views at the meetings. The comrades' views were extremely unanimous: "Since the land reform guarantees that everyone has land to plant, the tax revenue is only 30%. Since the land reform is to defend the Wandai country, what else do you have to say? There was not a single person in the Liberation Army who did not want to follow the governor to establish the Wandai country. ”
The high degree of political consciousness of the comrades in the army, or at least a high degree of rebellion, made Shen Xin speechless. In his report to Wei Ze, Shen Xin wrote: "The will of the people can be used, and the will of the army can be used. ”
Zhou Jinguo, the battalion commander of the Fourth Army, did not have such feelings, and the purpose of his rebellion was to have a stable land and not be exploited by all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes. After listening to the "reasoning" meeting on the land issue, he did not want to be exploited again. What's more, the land reform is related to the "Wandai country", and he has no reason to oppose it.
To Zhou Jinguo's delight, the internal stability of the army was quickly stabilized. Zhou Jinguo even had the opportunity to meet Zhou Jincai once. It was not Zhou Jinguo who reported Zhou Jincai, but Zhou Jincai's battalion political commissar. Zhou Jincai begged to see Zhou Jinguo in every possible way and apologized to him in person. scolded Zhou Jinguo in public, which had a great impact on Zhou Jinguo. So the request was finally granted.
The confinement area is in a small compound in the camp, which is also a brick house. But this is not because of special treatment, but because I am afraid that they will run away. After waiting for a while in the reception room in the courtyard, Zhou Jinguo saw that the guards had brought Zhou Jincai out. The confinement of these 20 days has made Zhou Jincai's whole body wilt. He had a scruffy beard and a pale face. As soon as he sat down opposite Zhou Jinguo, Zhou Jincai apologized again and again for scolding Zhou Jinguo.
Zhou Jinguo had basically put down the scolding at this time, but he had the heart to kill Zhou Jincai in the first few days. At this time, seeing Zhou Jincai's tragic situation, he was actually quite happy in his heart. If Zhou Jinguo made a move, it would be impossible to make Zhou Jincai look like this anyway.
"Jin Guo, I invited you here to ask you for two things, the first thing I want to ask you can say good things for me in front of the division commander, I know it's wrong, I just ask the troops not to drive me away." Zhou Jincai had a sad look on his face, "I don't want to be driven away by the troops." I haven't eaten enough of the troops' food! ”
This reason really moved Zhou Jinguo, after entering the army, he had rice to eat, but after entering the army, he didn't only eat rice. The Fourth Army was originally stationed in Shaoguan, and the troops cultivated their own land, vegetables, chickens, pigs, fish, and mulberry. Ordinary food is not ordinarily good. Zhou Jinguo had never eaten much meat when he was in his hometown, and in the past few years in Shaoguan, the troops not only had meat to eat, but also various spices when cooking, and the supply of edible oil was also sufficient. You have to eat meat for two or three days a week. If you go home and farm, you can't have this kind of food anyway.
Under the nourishment of such food, the comrades of the unit were physically strong, even if they had to endure wind and rain during combat and training, and each of them was tanned. But everyone has that kind of oily complexion that only the top big families have. To be more precise, the oil and water that is eaten into the stomach are quite stored in the subcutaneous fat layer.
After Zhou Jincai's 20 days of confinement, there is not much oil and water left, and it looks no different from the general dry complexion of this era. Zhou Jinguo often eats with Zhou Jincai, and he knows that Zhou Jincai has developed the habit of eating meat. Zhou Jinguo couldn't help but ask, "What have you eaten these days?" ”
"Porridge, pickles." Zhou Jincai replied with a sad face.
"Jin Cai, why do you think that you must be the master?" Zhou Jinguo asked again.
This question made Zhou Jincai even more painful, and his eyes were already flashing with tears at this time, "That's not what the previous head Xiong said. He said two years ago that when there is no war in the future, our battalion commanders will each have to share a few hundred acres of land with the local owner. He's the head of the regiment, can I not believe him after he says it? So as soon as I heard about the division of land, I thought that it was the governor who spoke and didn't count. I didn't expect it to be Captain Xiong talking nonsense, but Du Du Ke never said that. ”
Listening to Zhou Jincai's answer, Zhou Jinguo was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that there was such a reason behind the matter. With the previous head of the Xiong group, Zhou Jinguo was very impressed. This guy is usually a braggart, and he just says things that are unreliable to hear. For example, how he can soar in the future, it's right to follow him. Two years ago, the army was reorganized, and a large part of the people were called to study at military academies. Commander Xiong went to the military academy and has not been heard from since.
Although Zhou Jinguo's official position is not high, his qualifications are there. Because of the wide range of people, he knew very well that the people who were sent to the military school were completely different. One is normal military academy training, which occurs when troops are transferred. The other is that they suddenly receive orders to train in military schools, and many of these transfers are considered problematic. It's just that the troops gave them some face, and they didn't talk about dismissal, but used the excuse of going to the military academy for training.
"Do you dare to believe Captain Xiong's words?" Zhou Jinguo's voice trembled a little when he spoke.
Zhou Jincai cried with regret, tears rolled out, and Zhou Jincai wiped his dirty sleeves violently, but he couldn't dry them in time. After crying for a while, he was relieved, and then he choked up and said, "Isn't my lard blinding my heart?" I used to look at the majesty of the landlord at home, and I also wanted to be the landlord! As soon as Captain Xiong said this, I just thought that I could be the master. Later, he went to military school, although I thought his words might not be reliable. Can...... But I always feel that he is a regiment leader, and there must be some reason for him to say this. I really want to be the landlord, so I don't dare to talk about this to everyone in the past two years, I can only think about it myself. I've asked some people, and they all say differently. However, some people say that they will really give everyone hundreds of acres of land. I believed it...... Woohoo......"
Listening to Zhou Jincai's explanation, Zhou Jinguo opened his mouth several times, but he didn't know what to say. Is it to criticize this for the brother himself to be stupid? Or should he blame himself? Zhou Jinguo actually wanted to ask why Zhou Jincai ran to him and scolded him like crazy after he was removed. No need to ask anymore now. was deprived of the position of battalion commander, and knew that there was no land division at all, Zhou Jincai's future was completely doomed. When normal people are in such a situation, it's no wonder if they don't go crazy.
Zhou Jincai cried for a while, and he pleaded with Zhou Jinguo: "Jinguo, I just ask you to go to the division commander to intercede with me." I don't want to be a battalion commander, let me be a company commander, a platoon commander...... or an ordinary soldier. I'm just begging the teacher not to let me go! I don't want to leave the army. ”
Zhou Jinguo didn't dare to agree to go to the division commander, there was a lot of uproar in the army over this matter, and it was not easy to calm down the matter. But in the face of his friend's plea, Zhou Jinguo couldn't refuse, he could only say: "I know." I'll talk to the head of the regiment first. If the head of the regiment can agree, we will try our best to see together. ”
When he returned to the regiment headquarters and explained the situation, the regiment commander's head shook like a rattle, "This is not good." I have no qualifications to appoint or dismiss people at all. This is up to the HR department. ”
If there is anyone who scares Zhou Jinguo more than looking for a division commander, it is probably the personnel department. The guys there are really like things, and all of them have a very yin personality. Speaking never gives a clear answer. They don't laze on their duties, and they don't procrastinate when it comes to ratings, but don't expect any useful news from them on weekdays.
Zhou Jinguo said: "Commander, I think Jin Cai really knows that he is wrong, and he made this mistake because of the nonsense of Captain Xiong in the past. Can you help him talk. ”
Hearing this, the head of the regiment was furious, "Jin Guo, I will help him speak, who will help me speak?!" Jin just came out of this incident, when the teacher scolded me, who spoke for me? Now let me speak for Jin Cai, am I not scolded enough? ”
After saying it angrily, the head of the regiment saw that Zhou Jinguo honestly didn't dare to say anything, and his anger disappeared a little. He said angrily: "Do you think that Jin Cai scolded you enough? He ran to the army and scolded you for being a black man behind your back. In order to help you eliminate the bad influence, our group specially sent someone to explain to you and explain the ins and outs. You're trying to speak for him now. We did it wrong. Yes! You have a deep brotherly relationship, we don't mean enough to your brother, don't we? ”
Zhou Jinguo was originally about to give up, but when he heard the regiment leader's words, he couldn't help but retort, "Regiment leader! You can't say that. It's a yard for ......."
"Alright, alright!" The head of the regiment waved his hand impatiently and interrupted Zhou Jinguo's words, "We don't have to quarrel anymore." Find the teacher, you go by yourself, I won't go. ”
Coming out of the regiment commander, Zhou Jinguo thought about it, but still went to the division headquarters. If he stood by and watched this matter, Zhou Jinguo felt really uneasy in his heart. Looking at it now, Zhou Jincai did have a problem with himself, but he was also criticized. If the troops had transferred people like Commander Xiong earlier, wouldn't there have been the current situation?
When he arrived at the entrance of the division department, Zhou Jinguo saw that there were many more guards at the door. I was thinking about whether to go in, but I saw the division commander walking out of the division headquarters with the army commander and a young officer with a familiar face. The young officer was Shen Xin, but he noticed Zhou Jinguo. At this time, there was such a big trouble, and Zhou Jinguo wanted to be a big deal. Looking at Zhou Jinguo's expression of suffering from gains and losses, Shen Xin felt that there was something wrong.
Walking in front of Zhou Jinguo, Shen Xin smiled and said, "Comrade Zhou Jinguo, is there anything wrong?" ”
Zhou Jinguo also recognized Shen Xin at this time, and when he saw Shen Xin's kind expression, he didn't know where the courage came from, he said: "I'm here to say a favor to Zhou Jincai." He was just deceived and knew he was wrong. I don't think he's the same kind of bad guy. ”
Seeing Shen Xin greeting Zhou Jinguo, the division commander also followed. At this time, when he heard that Zhou Jinguo dared to intercede with Zhou Jincai, he immediately became furious, and regardless of Shen Xin being next to him, the division commander shouted: "Make such a big deal and lose such a big person in the army." If this kid is not killed, even if he burns high incense on his grave! You still came to intercede for him, why does he still want to be reinstated? ”
The matter has been provoked, and Zhou Jinguo is not as afraid as before, he said: "Division Commander, if the governor had taken out this program earlier, and made it clear that this was a matter related to the country of Wandai, and gave Zhou Jincai ten dares, he would not dare to think about the local master." Isn't this still that he was deceived? ”
The division commander widened his eyes angrily, "What? Are you saying that the Governor is wrong? I'll you to death! After finishing speaking, the division commander stepped forward to fight.
Shen Xin hurriedly stopped the division commander. Someone finally dared to come out and say that the policy was too late to be popularized, which was actually Shen Xin's idea. Because of the incident of Zhou Jincai, the Fourth Army was anxious to calm things down, so the troops did not have any reflection at all, and with Shen Xin's understanding of Wei Ze, Wei Ze would definitely not be satisfied. It's just that at this time, the military's heart is a little shaken, if Wei Ze dares to continue to criticize the troops, the reaction of the troops is definitely to find out the "culprit" to take the cylinder, rather than really reflect internally.
Stopping the angry division commander, Shen Xin turned his head and asked Zhou Jinguo kindly, "Comrade Zhou Jinguo, since you have such an idea, I am also willing to listen to what you say." It just so happens that Commander Lei is also here, so let's listen to it together. ”
After saying this, Shen Xin was afraid that Zhou Jinguo would be under too much pressure, so he smiled: "Seriously, I'm not completely against what you said. But you have to say something. ”
The division commander looked at Zhou Jinguo's eagerness to try under the provocation of Shen Xin, the director of the political department, and he wanted to strangle Zhou Jinguo to death. Now the army thinks that the political department is the supervising army, and everyone hopes to serve these uncles as soon as possible, so that they can get out of the army quickly. Therefore, it is "to cooperate with the work of the Ministry of Political Affairs".
Under the General Staff system, if something happens, there must be a clear person in charge. This time the division commander was lucky, and no one wanted to hold him accountable. Therefore, the division commander only waited for Zhou Jincai to be severely punished, kicked him out of the army, and gave a serious explanation to the superiors. That's it. Any action that makes waves in this process is something that the division commander wants to avoid as much as possible.
But Shen Xin, the "head of the supervising army" of the political department, had already spoken, and the division commander could only stare at Zhou Jinguo fiercely, trying to make this bastard retreat. Unexpectedly, Shen Xin avoided the angry gaze of the division commander and followed Shen Xin into the division headquarters.
The division commander didn't dare to follow up immediately, he walked to the side of the army commander Lei Hu, who was "watching the excitement" next to him, and said in a careful whisper: "Commander Lei, this mountain-based doctrine in my army has not been destroyed, and I ...... it."
Without waiting for the division commander to finish speaking, Lei Hu smiled: "What does this have to do with mountainism? Shantouism is to talk about heart-to-heart things in private, and when it is public, it is to say nonsense that has been discussed a long time ago. What kind of mountaineering is to tell the truth publicly? Besides, if you are investigated, can't I say a few good words for you publicly? ”
The division commander didn't expect the army commander Lei Hu to have such an attitude at all, and a warm feeling instantly arose in his heart. After being nervous for so much for so a month, hearing such heart-warming words, he only shouted "Commander......", and the next words were choked up. R1058
