The brothers returned to their room, and Tao Min picked up the cigarette pouch again. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Tao Gong didn't stop this time, but instead lit a cigarette pouch for his brother.

Neither of the brothers spoke, but sat quietly in a cloud of smoke.

"Brother." Tao Min opened his mouth and said, "If Xu Lang really wants to kill me one day, don't stop me, I should pay the price for what I have done." ”

"Brother, we didn't do anything wrong." Tao Gong persuaded, "The deaths of Deng Zhaohui and Li Xiao can't be counted on our heads, and if we fight, we will die, and no one can change them." Besides, we are no less dead than them, and he has no reason to kill you. ”

"I'm not talking about Deng Zhaohui." Tao Min closed his eyes in pain, "I'm talking about today." ”

"Brother, don't think too much." Tao Gong continued, "They are all North Koreans. ”

"North Koreans are also people, and as long as they are people, they shouldn't be like this." Tao Min knocked out the cigarette in his hand that he hadn't smoked, "Brother, let me tell you a story from our previous life." ”

"What's the story?"

"At one of the railroad tracks, five people were tied to one track and another to another. A train is coming towards the tracks of 5 people, you can pull the wrench, then the direction of the train will change, 5 people will be saved, but the other person will be crushed to death. If it's you, do you move or not? ”

Tao Gong thought for a while: "I will move, the lives of five people are more precious than one person." ”

Tao Min shook his head: "All lives are equal. ”

"Brother, what will you do then?"

"I'll find a way to stop the train, I really can't stop, and I won't move."

"Why?" Tao Gong asked, "Are you willing to exchange the lives of five people for the lives of one person?" ”

"If I don't move, I just can't save those 5 people; But if I moved, that one person was killed by me. Tao Min re-lit the cigarette pouch, "Just like now." I know that in the Ming Dynasty, whether it is Dajin, there are people who are more miserable than Cui Zhenhao and his little wife, and we have no way to rescue them all. But today, it is I who have caused this misfortune and suffering, and I have caused it myself. ”

"Brother, you're thinking too much about it again." Tao Gong said, "I also know that today's incident is a bit excessive, but we are also doing this for the sake of our great salvation of the nation." In order to achieve great things, there are always people who have to sacrifice. ”

"But is it necessarily right to use one evil to eliminate another?"

Tao Gong didn't know how to persuade his brother, so he paused for a while before saying, "Brother, there is no turning back when you open the bow." We've done it, and we have to do it. ”

"Brother, don't think about it." Tao Min knocked out the cigarette pouch for the second time, "You're right, there is no turning back when you open the bow." I'm just panicking, so I'll tell you what needs to be done or done. ”

After three days of preparation, the Qingshanli Poor Peasants' Association was officially established. After thinking about it, Tao Min finally canceled the decision to execute Cui Zhenhao and his wife at the poor peasant conference.

Choi Chung-hyun, the president of the Poor Peasants' Association, stood triumphantly on the platform in a new suit of clothes and trousers given to him by Tao Gong, and behind him stood a few selected North Koreans dressed in the same way as him, each with a wooden stick more than two feet long hanging from his waist.

"Koryo sticks." Tao Min suddenly realized, "After making trouble for a long time, I actually came up with this word." ”

"Folks." Tao Gong stepped forward and began to live in vain again, "The Qingshanli Poor Peasants' Association was officially established today. From now on, there will be no landlords, no bullies, and no cannibalistic exploitation in the green mountains. Each and every one of you is the owner of the land, and each and every one of you will live a happy and good life. Now, we would like to ask Choi Jeong-hyun, president of the Poor Peasants' Association, to say a few words. ”

Tao Gong was the first to applaud after speaking, "Applause, applause." Niu Lu really kept shouting loudly, and the North Koreans in the audience also began to applaud together in the same way as Tao Gong.

"Folks." Cui Zhengxian stepped forward and said according to what Tao Gong taught him, "Under the leadership of the two Dajin Town Guogong, we have successfully defeated the bully landlord Cui Zhenhao in Qingshan and successfully completed the land reform work. Each of your families has been allocated their own land, and in the future, everyone must work hard to farm and actively pay grain and taxes. As long as everyone follows Zhen Guogong, happiness will definitely come. ”

"Come, let's sing together." Cui Zhengxian raised his arms and took the lead in singing the song adapted by Tao Min, "The sky in the green mountains is a clear sky, and the people in the green mountains like it so much; The poor peasants love the people, and the kindness of the town and the prince is endless. Ahh ”

The land reform work in Qingshan was completed in a stormy manner, and Tao Min and Tao Gong had to take people back to Nanpu.

"Brother, don't we keep anyone?" Tao Gong asked in the room.

"You don't need to keep people, Cui Zhengxian is enough." Tao Min replied, "Let's rush back and summarize and continue to carry out land reform in other places." Besides, the self-defense force of the poor peasants in Qingshan has been established, and Choi Chung-hyun will be in charge of them first, and then these people will be the backbone of our new Korean army. ”

Tao Gong thought for a while: "Okay, everything is up to you." I'll go and explain to Cui Zhengxian again, and we'll go back to Nanpu. ”

"Brother." Tao Min instructed, "Tell Choi Jung-hyun to leave Choi Jin-ho alive." ”

"I know." Tao Gong bowed his head and walked out.

Tao Gong took the interpreter to look around, and finally found the president of the poor peasant association who had not yet gotten up at Cui Zhengxian's house.

Tao Gong sat on the chair, and Choi Jung-hyun stood to the side in disheveled clothes. His woman, Choi Jin-ho's little wife a few days ago, was hiding in a corner in horror, her face and bare arms covered with scars.

Tao Gong took his eyes off the face of this woman full of fear: "President Cui, we will go back tomorrow, and you will be responsible for the work in Qingshan in the future." ”

"Go back to the town Guogong, you can rest assured." Cui Zhengxian replied while arranging his clothes, "As long as there is a villain, Qingshan Li will be absolutely loyal to your two Zhenguo Gong." ”

"If there is any situation, go to Nanpu to find us." Tao Gong said, "I have also told you about the following work, serve dim sum, don't engage in women all day long, you will have many women in the future." ”

"The villain understands, the villain understands."

"And." Tao Gong got up to leave, walked to the door and turned around, "If Cui Zhenhao is honest, he will be spared, but you have to watch it, and you can't let him talk nonsense." ”

"The villain knows, you can rest assured when you are old."

Tao Min and Tao Gong returned to Nampo with the people.

"Our trip to Qingshan this time went well." Tao Min took out the cigarette pouch again, "Just follow this model, and first complete the land reform work in these surrounding villages." As long as they can be given land, this method is still the fastest and most effective. ”

"But, brother." Tao Gong asked, "What about the dozen or so villages around, when will the two of us finish running?" ”

"Huh." Tao Min smiled, "Of course the two of us can't finish running." This time, the 100 people who went to Qingshan also saw how we carried out land reform, set up a working group, and let them take people to do it separately, and we just need to train them simply. ”

"I don't think it's appropriate to just let the working group go." "I'm worried that they won't be able to grasp it, after all, they don't know anything about it. ”

"It's okay." Tao Min suddenly became depressed, "To be honest, brother, I don't want to go." If I don't see it with my own eyes and do it myself, maybe I can feel better. ”

Tao Gong knew that his brother's heart was actually very uncomfortable, so he didn't persuade him again: "Brother, I'll arrange it." ”

"It's already early June." Tao Min said, "It has been almost four months since the armistice agreement with Jiang Beiming, and we must complete the land reform in North Korea within this year, and it will be possible to recruit troops on a large scale next year, so it will definitely not work without a working group." You go to a training class and pick out a group of people from the fast gun team to take turns training. The backbone of a working group should be about five or six people, and then let them bring another twenty or thirty people and act separately at the same time, so that it can be faster. ”

"I see, brother."

After more than ten days of assault training, Tao Min's first batch of 20 working groups were completed, and Tao Min and Tao Gong were assigning their respective tasks to these people in the barracks.

"Master." A soldier of the fast gun team ran in from outside, "Someone has come from the green mountain, saying that he wants to see the master." ”

"Someone from the green mountains?" Tao Min froze unconsciously, "Who's coming?" ”

"Back to the master, the person who came said it was Cui Zhengxian. However, the minion seemed to be in a hurry, and even his shoes ran away. ”

"Let him in." Tao Min thought in his heart, "What can happen in Qingshan?" ”

After a while, Cui Zhengxian ran in panting and knelt on the ground: "My lord, it's not good, it's not good." ”

"What's the matter?" Tao Min scolded dissatisfiedly, "Explain in detail." ”

"My lord, Cui Zhenhao's son went back, and he took the soldiers with him and took our poor peasant association, and the villain finally escaped death to deliver a letter to the adult."

"Choi Jin-ho's son?" Tao Min waved his hand, and everyone in the room went out.

"You tell me slowly, what exactly does his son do, and how many people does he bring?"

Cui Zhenhao's eldest son is called Cui Yuancheng, who is a soldier and horse control envoy in Huanghaedao, and has been in Huanghaedao and does not stay at home much. Cui Zhenhao was inexplicably divided into family property and beaten by Cui Zhengxian. After the Tao Min brothers returned, Cui Zhenhao asked people to quietly go to Huanghae Road to deliver a letter to his son. When Cui Yuancheng heard this, he was anxious, and returned to Qingshan with more than 100 officers and soldiers overnight. It was also a coincidence that when Cui Yuancheng went to arrest Cui Zhengxian, Cui Zhengxian happened to be not at home, so he escaped this catastrophe.

After listening to Cui Zhengxian's story, Tao Gong sneered: "Returning to the hometown? This is a counterattack. ”

Cui Zhengxian didn't understand what Tao Gong meant, and he didn't dare to speak with his eyes open.

"Chairman Choi, don't worry." Tao Gong patted the frightened Cui Zhengxian, "You said that they went back with more than 100 people, right?" ”

"Yes, sir. There are more than 100 officers and soldiers, and our Self-Defense Forces only have a few dozen people, so they can't be defeated at all. ”

"What armaments do they have?" Tao Min asked suddenly.

"They are very well armed, with spears, bows and arrows, and broadswords."

"Is there a firebolt?"

"I didn't see this villain, so I shouldn't."

"Tao Gong." Tao Min didn't ask anymore, "Order the 300-strong horse team, let's go back to Qingshan." ”

It was noon when Tao Min and Tao Gong took the people back to Qingshanli, and the sound of leather whips and cries came from the courtyard in the distance.

There were several people tied to the platform of the courtyard, all of them activists of the Qingshanli Poor Peasants' Association, and a young North Korean officer stood in front of the crowd: "If any of you have divided my family's land, and if anyone else has beaten my father and my mother, stand up for me." We are fellow villagers, and I also know that you have been bewitched by others. My father said that anyone who takes the initiative to return the land and admit punishment will not be blamed in the past. But whoever still dies and doesn't admit it is just like them. ”

After Cui Yuancheng finished speaking, he waved his whip again: "Let you beat my father again, and let you beat my mother again." ”

"You get down on my knees." Cui Yuancheng was tired, and pulled Cui Zhenhao's little wife over again, "Since you entered the door of our house, my father and my mother can't stand you at any point, you are now eating inside and out, colluding with outsiders, and going to other men's beds, I will kill you slut." ”

The more Cui Yuancheng spoke, the more angry he became, and he raised the leather whip in his hand again.

"Yuan Cheng, don't hit her." Cui Zhenhao stopped his son in the back, "She was also forced." ”

"Daddy." Cui Yuancheng turned around and shouted, "This kind of slut can't be beaten without fighting, why are you still protecting her now." ”

"Yuan Cheng." It was Cui Yuancheng's mother who spoke, "Let her go, she is also a hard-working child." ”
