Chapter 604 Nostalgia 4

The weather is still getting colder, but in the territory of the states under the rule of Huaidong, it is more and more showing a scene of construction in full swing.

Originally, because of the cold, it should be a sparse pedestrian on the various branch roads, and it is also the appearance of endless flow of people, vehicles and horses.

Even after nightfall, there are still many places where torches are held luxuriously, wind lanterns are hung, and the lanterns continue to work until dawn.

However, it is mainly because of the corresponding infrastructure layout, due to the arrival of the agricultural slack period, and the release of a large number of agricultural production labor, and the situation of blooming everywhere.

This is because, unlike the previous winters, those targeted key projects that were more or less universal in the nature of relief and under compulsory management were full of stability maintenance.

This winter, because of the relative abundance of official winter reserves, a part of it was generously put into the labor market, turning all parts of Huaidong into a large construction site where the whole people called for mobilization to spontaneously earn extra money and material quotas.

Among them, the majority is mainly focused on water conservancy projects that can indirectly affect and improve agricultural output during the dry season, as well as road extension paving that improves circulation efficiency and compresses operating costs in disguise.

Because the canal network in the Xu and Yan areas has been basically completed. Therefore, this winter's focus is on the construction of embankments in several large river basins and the corresponding projects for channeling, expanding and extending.

The overall technical content of these projects may be limited, but they definitely require a lot of labor and intensive labor hours to complete.

Therefore, walking on the cruising road, you can directly feel the obvious change is.

The scenes of men, women and children, who had to go out to work and do the corresponding labor in order to obtain basic rations, were directly replaced by the able-bodied men who were all on the side of the road and in the river construction sites.

And their complexion and nutrition have improved significantly compared with the previous two years. Although most of them are shabby, they are at least well-dressed and do not wade barefoot in mudflats and muddy waters.

This also means that their wives and children have been able to stay at home with peace of mind; Or you only need to complete some low-intensity labor arrangements nearby, and you can enjoy the daily quota.

From an economic point of view, the slack time in winter is a good opportunity to readjust and sort out the pattern of the economic circulation market under the rule of Huaidong.

The surplus of output accumulated by the government, the private sector for a year, as well as the salaries saved by the military and public officials, can be gradually absorbed and digested by the various materials and consumer goods that the government has put into the market.

Maintain or create a small volatility of inflation or contraction that is not so obvious.

After all, both from the basic market theory of later generations and from the regulatory function of the primitive planned economy.

The dead things that are passively accumulated in the hands will not multiply by themselves, but will quickly depreciate in value due to the cost of storage, as well as natural mildew and loss.

Only by quickly entering the daily circulation and reproduction cycle can more surplus value be produced under the effect of flowing water without decay, and then under the catalysis of more and more skilled manual labor and production technology.

In today's situation, the direct imposition of arbitrary tax increases and assessments is undoubtedly inefficient and stupid, and the direct and indirect costs are very high.

The use of the coercive power and authority of the regime to carry out hidden harvesting and resource recovery in the name of market adjustment and economy is the most covert and superior means that is not easy to leave future troubles.

Compared to the later generations, the wisdom of the people gradually opened, and when they encountered things such as price increases, they instinctively complained about the government's citizens in the new era.

Most of the ancients in this era who had a limited vision and a simple mind would habitually curse a few words of profiteers, who might "hoard and live strangely".

Of course, the premise is that the ruler must have a sufficient forward-looking vision and the lessons learned from the times as the foundation and confidence. and the determination and skill of "no matter how bad it is, it can't be bad", and dare to toss.

In the meantime, it was not without other noises.

For example, the "Ma Tongtuo" under the leadership of Tong Hao recently cracked a small group in the local area that tried to indirectly sell military products and firearms to the Northern Dynasty through the spies hidden among the displaced people?

It is said that the buyer behind the scenes is likely to be the one who confronted me on the southwest line, the general of the Northern Dynasty, Yang Keshi.

And the other side is not equipped with old-fashioned arquebuses, three-eyed guns and other large road goods and miscellaneous firearms that have been used by second- and third-rate troops, nor are they old-fashioned front-loading flintlock pistols.

It is a flintlock pistol with standard rear-loading paper bullets, as well as a sampan gun improved from a kilogram of small cannons, etc., as well as the standard configuration of the formation and installation.

It is said that each complete piece of gun, according to the condition of the new and old, has been as high as tens to hundreds of yuan, if it is a small cannon, the value is higher, and it is paid with real money.

As a result, some people were tempted to take risks.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still a gap in my production capacity, and I still privately supplied the friendly forces of the country and the DPRK to make profits, I didn't think about using this line to make some extra money.

After all, firearms require a sufficient scale and quantity in order to produce qualitative improvements and changes in combat effectiveness, and they also require the cooperation of daily tactical training and concept infusion.

It's not that you can form combat effectiveness when you get it, otherwise it's just a fake big empty thing like weapons.

Besides, the generation gap between continuous investment in technology research and development and production capacity is not so easy to catch up and get closer.

At the very least, this is a conceptual gap between the civilization level and the intergenerational productivity level.

However, what is somewhat reassuring is that the outflow is not the main battle battalion on active duty, nor the second-line garrison battalion, but a local garrison regiment.

After all, compared to the system of soldiers' committees and personnel rotation training, the main battle and the defense are two major military orders.

For these garrison regiments in various localities that are composed of third-rate eliminated personnel and used to maintain law and order, the corresponding requirements and specific monitoring are not so strict, and there is even some negligence and slackness in prevention.

In addition, their predecessors were originally recruited along the way, and the stragglers who worked for the troops were themselves from mixed sources and mixed sources.

Although after the old and weak were eliminated and the capable personnel were selected, they were scattered and re-organized. But there are still some remnants of the old-style army and remnants of the township party, and there is no way to clean it up.

As a result, the problem came out of the highest-ranking township party gang headed by a material official.

Then, relying on the convenience of his authority, he colluded with a small number of fellow villagers in the supporting factories stationed there, took advantage of the loopholes in management, and reported many defects in the special orders provided to the friendly troops in Jiangning, and then accumulated a small amount of these parts, reassembled the finished products, and then sold them.

And then before it could be delivered and delivered, it was already cracked,

Despite this, it is inevitable to prevent the gradual launch of a purge and clean-up campaign, as well as related secrecy and discipline propaganda activities.

In this process, although no signs of more weapons loss were found, some mistakes, omissions and deficiencies were found incidentally, which were usually hidden under training and service, personal slackness in details, lack of awareness of importance and significance, poor implementation of the grassroots system, poor equipment maintenance and management, etc.,

The most important thing is to come and not be rude. Since the other party is engaged in sneaky little actions, then I naturally do not hesitate to return the color

"Before the winter, how many mobile men and horses can be dispatched from the six states in the rear?"

I explained to Marquis Yu Xue Zhengyan

"In addition, let the military team estimate how much surplus and ceiling there is in the mobilization of the forward states......"

"The General Staff counts the expected assembly and departure places,"

"As well as the maximum attack range, and the cost of the required equipment, ammunition, food, and materials,"

"The plan for the follow-up response to the troops...... Submit it as soon as possible."

"Prepare for the sortie before the snow falls......"

"I can't let the other party go so comfortably to prepare for the winter......"

"No......"
