Yang Village. Several militia platoons nearby, even came here to concentrate. There is a garrison here in Yang Village, which can be quickly assembled.
"My old man is here to put the ugly words in front. We joined the Republican Army, not for the Republican Army's generous pay. We have to come to the army with a conscience. An old man in his fifties said from a small plateau in the center, where young descendants from the nearby ten miles and eight towns gathered. The old man is called Lao Yang Tou by others, a big name, and no one knows it anyway. I just know that when I was a soldier, I killed people on the battlefield, and then I broke an arm and beat a bachelor for a lifetime.
Now, because he was a soldier, he is a militia tactics instructor. As for how big an official it is, no one knows, but what they do know is that Lao Yangtou's family has an extra 150 acres of land. It was all good land, and what bonds, and the distribution of all kinds of supplies. The matchmakers nearby came to him in a hurry to tell him about their daughter-in-law.
The situation is also similar for other militia families, who join the militia and have 50 acres of land, and at the same time, land bonds of more than 100 acres of land are issued, which can be exchanged in the future. It can also be exchanged for money, grain. In addition to this, there are various treatments. This kind of treatment situation is an advantage for them, because they have never had so much in the past.
What is most heartening to many people is that the Republican Army is exempt from all kinds of agricultural taxes, and even the most hated conscription is gone. Those who participated in the construction of the roads, whether it was women, the elderly, and even half-grown children, were paid more than enough. It can be said that every family does not lack food, and every family becomes rich.
The actions of the Republican Army have made the local people look at it. Therefore, people who join the militia are becoming more and more active, and if it were not for the age and physical limitations, many people would have to join the militia.
As soon as the news of the republican army's recruitment of militia into active duty was announced, all the people actively signed up for the army.
This is also a scene in Yang Village, but Lao Yang can feel it. Some young people have impure motives, he has been on the battlefield, he knows what it is like to fight. Only those with a firm will can stick to their positions and deal with all kinds of crises that may arise.
Now, after solving the problem of food and clothing, as well as the problem of taxation, the enthusiasm of the people to join the army is very high.
But the more times like this, the more clear Lao Yang becomes, and the more he wants to make it clear to those young men that war is not child's play.
But helplessly, the people's enthusiasm for joining the army was very high. There are too many people joining the army. There were so many that he couldn't cope with such a situation.
This is also the first time that the local conscription officers have encountered such a situation, and according to their estimates, the number of conscripts is only 500 people, and it is enough to form a normal infantry battalion. It is not even possible to think that such a task can be accomplished.
But in reality, they were able to recruit more than 3,000 soldiers. This is still after screening, and if it is not, it will be more than they expected.
A recruiter once saw such a situation. An old mother who is blind crying in both eyes pushes her last two children out to join the army. And threatened that if he couldn't join the army, he couldn't go back. Because the old woman's life is the best time now. She herself hopes to repay in this way.
There are so many such things. This is how the simple people repay the preferential policies of the Republican Army.
Because they've never seen a ** treat people like this. They don't know if this ** is real, but after they see too much land existing, they decide to follow such **.
Luoyang City.
Brigadier One-Eye's situation is not good right now. After successfully stabilizing the situation in Luoyang, he needs to stabilize the law and order in Luoyang, and at the same time, he needs to urgently recruit a group of soldiers who can fight from the existing militia to fight on the front line, and they will replace the regular army on the front line. It's unclear whether they'll be able to withstand a massive onslaught, but things seem to be in a bad state at the moment.
"Sir, I think the inhabitants of the city have too many ideas. If it weren't for their own vital interests, they wouldn't have done it, you see. In the past, they rebelled against the rebels because the rebels had a great entanglement with their interests, and they would lose a lot of benefits. But now, there is no need for them to fight against us and fight for us. The lieutenant adjutant said.
The convening work was very unpleasant. Originally, they planned to recruit 10,000 people, but the actual strength was only more than 700 people, and most of the militia were residents of the city, even if they were residents outside the city, they were also keen on commercial activities, and they instinctively resisted fighting.
"We have to find a way to solve such a problem, otherwise, our main forces will not be able to be withdrawn at all." Brigadier General One-Eyed said.
"But, sir, unless they have a lot to do with their own interests, they simply can't deal with such a situation." The other party said.
"Well, you're right, interests, only things related to interests, they can do it, otherwise, they don't care about anything, but what kind of things can have a lot to do with their interests." Brigadier General One-Eyed thought so.
"Sir, the inhabitants of the city are recovering. I think what they desperately need is money, money in circulation, you know, they have suffered a lot of losses in the rebellion, many merchants have no capital, their goods have been destroyed, if we can provide a bank loan, for example, people who are actively in the army, there will be a place for interest-free loans. This is a great favorable condition for them. Even if they don't participate, they can let their relatives participate, and there is also tax exemption, or provide some support, etc. These can be mobilized. The lieutenant said.
"Well, good, good, just do it, all I need is such a reason, a project, a plan to come out. Hurry up. Brigadier General One-Eyed said. The lieutenant immediately took note of it and complied.
If urban residents are mobilized to join the army in the same way as in the rural areas, the situation will certainly fall short of expectations. The town is commercially developed. What they need is the development of commodities, capital. On the contrary, when it comes to land, they are more concerned about the high ground of shop rents in towns. For the land outside the city, it is only seen as an investment project. If these townspeople could not be mobilized, they would naturally not be able to do such things.
At the same time, on the contrary, if enough money is mobilized for them, they will inevitably do something for those interests, and these things will be enough for them to make a lot of good responses.
The two different redeployment options would solve many practical problems to the greatest extent, and this would be an extremely beneficial outcome for the IRA.
Rear of the Kwantung Coalition Army.
Seeing the airship appearing in the sky, the Kwantung coalition soldiers automatically dodged, because if they fell, they would explode, many times. I can't even find a corpse. So, after a few bombings, they all learned to dodge. When he saw the airship coming out, he frantically sounded a warning. Then the soldiers dodge as fast as they can, and in this way, their situation will be much better.
"Quick, get out of the way, hurry." The soldiers of the Kwantung Coalition frantically dodged. Some fled in the direction of the woods, while others hid directly in the tunnel, and then looked at the airship, alerting to the arrival of the airship at any time, because it would cause them a lot of trouble.
Several bombings allowed those Kwantung coalition soldiers to sum up some experience. It's one thing for them to understand. Dodging was the only way they could deal with the bombing.
"Damn, lose it. If you lose it, we can get out. A veteran looked at his head anxiously and said that when the airship flew over, many soldiers would take the initiative to run away, the airship was very slow, and there was a process of falling down. As long as you don't get hit, there is still hope for survival.
"Bang. Bang. Two loud noises rang out, followed by billowing smoke.
"Ahh The shells hit directly into a dodge.
"Damn, this time it's a cannonball, it's not **, dodge. Come on. The veteran understood at once. They thought it was a bombing this time, but they didn't expect it. The Republican airship turned out to be loaded with artillery. Artillery directly attacked their ground targets. This was a big surprise to many people.
This means that evasion becomes somewhat unreliable, and in such a situation, it is still difficult for them to develop to a greater extent.
"Quick. Avoid. "Boom." Howling. The sound of an explosion after hitting an object. For a time, the entire barracks became chaotic.
"The IRA is changing very quickly." Cao Cao looked at the airship in the sky and said. He was very envious and felt that he would also build an air force unit in the future. Because there is no solution to deal with the Air Force at the moment.
"Fire, fire." At this moment, Cao Ren suddenly saw a blimp emitting smoke, as if it was on fire.
"What's going on?" Cao Cao asked puzzled.
"I don't know." Cao Ren replied.
"Quick, don't care why, hurry up and follow them, they will help us solve many, many problems, be safe, alive, bring them back." Cao Cao ordered.
Cao Ren soon followed the airship with a group of people. Cao Cao felt that he had waited for such an opportunity, and the premise was that he wanted to live, not die. Because only in this way can they have a great relationship with the Republican Army and get greater conditions for negotiation, which is the most advantageous point for him.
