The first six chapters travel thousands of miles

An Yi's train departed from Mumbai and headed north to Muyu City (formerly Allah Abad) on the south bank of the Ganges River, before turning east to explore the fertile plains of the subcontinent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

An Yi was on the speeding train, looking forward to the almost boundless plain, the wheat, barley, sorghum, rape and other crops planted in autumn have already sprouted tender green shoots.

"It is worthy of the world's most famous granary...... I have heard that this great plain is 2,000 kilometers long from east to west, about 250 to 500 kilometers wide, and the cultivated land is as high as 300,000 square kilometers.

"This data is true"

Nalan Piaoxue has been rooted in the subcontinent during this time, and has a deep impression of the industry and agriculture here:

"According to the latest statistics, the total area of cultivated land in the subcontinent is more than 190 million hectares, while the whole territory of China, including Northeast China, Xinjiang and Tibet, has more than 96 million hectares, that is to say, the cultivated land of the Indian continent where we are located at the moment is twice that of our great motherland, which gave birth to and reproduced us

"Until the Opium Wars, China's dynasties claimed to be the center of the world, and all other countries and civilizations were regarded as barbarians...... Are we really big? Before the outbreak of this world war, the area of Britain, France, Russia, and their colonies was far above ours, not to mention the abundance of materials, because three-quarters of our land is mountainous and hilly areas unsuitable for farming, and at the same time, our country's land with abundant precipitation is in the eastern monsoon region, which accounts for only about 40 percent of our total land area, which again leads to a great reduction in arable land

"Our population is the largest in the world, and the actual arable land per capita is actually very small, but now with this fertile plain, everything is different -- the Chinese nation is the best race in the world at farming, and with more than 30 million hectares of land in South China, Annan, and Siam, the famine we and the country are facing will be easily solved, and at the same time, we still have a large amount of strategic grain reserves in our material warehouses, and if we add the fertile fields of the subcontinent, Burma, and Malaya now, even if the Chinese nation has another two or three billion people, there will be no pressure."

Gu Changfeng smiled dumbly when he heard this: "How many people are there in the world now?" If there are really two or three billion, I am afraid that the earth will be occupied by us Chinese"

An Yi knows that the future generations will bomb the crisis, and now the world's most plastered land and the most oil resources have been manipulated into his own hands, and it is really difficult to determine where the long river of history will flow, and he said with a smile at the moment:

"What are you doing with that? We only care about the present, the future is out of reach, where can we think so far, but according to my idea, how can we also expand the population base of the Chinese nation to more than one billion, otherwise Siberia, the Far East and the Middle East, what to develop?

"Only when our Chinese nation becomes a well-deserved Juche nation on the land under our feet can we truly claim to have it, otherwise wherever we go back and forth, we don't want people to rise up and rebel against us, and we have to leave in disgrace. Therefore, everyone still has to work hard, find more wives to make love after they go back, and strive to have a few more children. ”

An Yi's words caused laughter in the carriage.

Nalan Piaoxue glanced at An Yi coquettishly, but ushered in the teasing of her sweetheart, she couldn't help blushing, and ran out of the carriage in a hurry under the pretext of going to the bathroom, causing a burst of laughter again.

An Yi and his entourage took the Ganges Fleet's 2,500-ton river destroyer in Banana City (formerly Patna) and went down the Ganges River to the southeast.

Zhou Jun, commander of the Ganges fleet, and Deng Baoshan, political commissar, accompanied the whole process.

The destroyer sailed briskly and smoothly downstream at a speed of 40 km/h, and everyone reveled in the beautiful scenery on both sides.

Zhou Jun took the initiative to come to An Yi's side and reported:

"The Ganges River basin has a dense water network, and when the rainy season comes, even Zizhu City, which is inland in the northwest, can be directly navigated to the sea, and in the dry season, the river below Muyu City can be navigated, and the 2,500-ton ships that want to pass through it are strictly limited to the waters below Banana City......

"The region is well navigated, with the Brahmaputra and Ganges tributaries crisscrossing to form a convenient water transport network. In the past, there were many bandits entrenched in these areas, and in addition to the armed groups formed by the mob that fled to various places after the Japanese army broke up, our Ganges Fleet immediately cooperated with the garrisons and the public security and armed police forces in various places to vigorously eliminate these hidden dangers. After more than half a year of suppressing bandits, the smooth flow of waterways has basically been ensured."

An Yi nodded: "The bandits and water bandits must be completely eliminated, otherwise the people will not be able to live in peace and contentment, river and water transportation is very important for the development of industry and agriculture, and it is of positive significance for the communication between the north and the south, and I will never allow the banks of this river to become a place to hide dirt and dirt."

Zhou Jun and Deng Baoshan said in unison, and Zhang Chengzhu and Li Jinlong also said that the Indian army will hold a large-scale training operation in the near future to closely sort out all the places where there may be hidden dangers. The subcontinent is flat, and it is still difficult to hide in such an area, and as long as the war that is now spreading on the Deccan plateau in the south is extinguished, the northern region, which has lost foreign aid, will truly settle down.

Then Deng Baoshan explained the performance of this river destroyer:

This destroyer is a "Yangyan" class "Hatsuharu" destroyer captured from the Japanese Navy, with a full load displacement of 2,500 tons, a crew of 350 people, and three 50-fold diameter 3-year-old G-type twin-mounted 127mm guns, and two 25mm twin-mounted anti-aircraft guns.

At present, in the Ganges region, a total of five similar destroyers and twenty gunboats carry out patrol duties.

Nalan Piaoxue briefly introduced the development of inland waterway shipping in the Ganges River Basin.

As of last month, 16 shipping companies had been registered in the region, with a total of more than 300 passenger and cargo vessels of 2,500 tons and below in operation. These vessels are mainly carrying passengers, supplemented by bulk cargo from various ports, and operate on the river and sea routes from Zizhu City to Manlong City (Satier Port in Northeast India) or Chittagong. Due to the rapid recovery of industry and commerce in the coastal cities, these enterprises are operating well.

While admiring the scene of thousands of miles of fertile fields on both sides of the strait, An Yi said:

"Although it has only been liberated for a short time, based on the good industrial foundation laid by the British in the local area, many factories and enterprises on both sides of the Ganges River and the Brahmaputra River have resumed production, and many Chinese enterprises have also invested in building factories under the guidance of the government, and industrial zones are being formed.

"Water transport is large and expensive, effectively reducing production costs, is an important link in the economic operation of this region, including Nepal and Kashmir, in the future we will increase investment, make full use of the canal system built by the British, supplemented by various transportation and water conservancy hubs, so that only water transport can communicate the north and south of the subcontinent

......

The ferry arrived at Sunshine Harbour (formerly Yangon) after two days of sailing.

An Yi and his entourage stayed for a week in Sunshine City, the capital of Lishui Province, during which they met with representatives from all walks of life, visiting the newly expanded Sunshine Shipyard and its affiliated dock in the port area, which can build 50,000-ton warships, the large-scale oil refinery and petrochemical plant built by the British in Biaobei Town, southern of the city, around the Ringanqiang and other oil fields, and the food manufacturing plant that makes full use of the abundant seafood in the waters of the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea.

An Yi fully affirmed that Sunshine City, which had been hit hard by earthquakes, tsunamis, and military disasters over the years, was able to quickly recover its vitality and vitality after the war, and encouraged the main leaders of the Military Management Commission to guard against arrogance and rashness, continue to work hard, and strive to turn Sunshine City into the vanguard of economic development in the Liangjiang (Irrawaddy and Salween) regions.

On October 22, after inspecting Mawlamyine, another famous port city in the Liangjiang region, An Yi and his entourage took a train through the Santa Pass and across the Chao Phraya River Plain to arrive in Jingnan City (formerly Bangkok).

With the use of pesticides, fertilizers and tractors, the demand for rural manpower has gradually decreased, and the grain harvest has been bumper every year, and young and middle-aged people have either been conscripted into the army or invested in urban and rural infrastructure.

As in other cities, the construction of the new city began with underground pipelines. At the beginning of 1939, with the successive stationing of engineering troops and the order of He Jing, Minister of Construction, the construction of large-scale underground pipelines in Jingnan City began.

At first, the population did not do not understand.

What do you do when you dig such a deep trench? For a time, rumors that Jingnan City might be threatened by a Japanese landing operation were all over the place, but later the rumors were dispelled as the prototype of the pipeline network first appeared.

The huge underground pipelines are all large pipe systems made of reinforced concrete, and even cars can run in the main lines.

In fact, when the main line was being built, it was the military trucks that transported the excavated soil during the process, and there was no problem for the two vehicles to cross each other during the peak of the ballast. It took half a year for the major underground pipelines to be excavated and constructed. After the underground pipeline is completed, the surface part is next. With the underground part of the project, the construction of the above-ground part has become unusually simple.

Jingnan is completely built according to the megacity, and each factory area has its own characteristics, but the residential area is the same, all of which are reinforced concrete seven-story buildings.

In the middle of last year, after the completion of the new urban area in Jingnan, the Military Management Committee mobilized the citizens of the old residential area to relocate to the old residential area and start renovating the old urban area. The people were short of money, and the construction of the city needed labor, so the idle laborers in the village or on the farm organized themselves and contracted the project. During the winter and summer vacations, students also do odd jobs at various construction sites to earn some living expenses and reduce the burden on their families.

Most of the projects are undertaken by the construction companies of various groups with professional qualifications, and because the Ministry of Construction is very strict in terms of acceptance, and the Ministry of Supervision and the Logistics Department of the Military Region will conduct random inspections at any time, there is no problem in terms of quality. The main project is naturally completed by the company's construction team, but those small projects do not know who to hand over, because many of the anticipated engineering teams are grass platform teams without any qualifications at all, and there are also problems with how to deal with those who steal construction materials.

The party, government, and military system in South China can be said to be in a completely unfamiliar area, building a new political system completely different from the previous ones, and all people, including locals and immigrants, must slowly adapt to this new political system.

Although the peasants who went to the cities to work after the liberation of the labor force were loyal supporters of the Nanhua government and the An Jiajun during the land reform, some of them stood on the opposite side of the government during the construction of the urban project.

The phenomenon of cutting corners, falsely reporting materials, and giving and accepting bribes when talking about business is very common, and people who originally had nothing, seeing the strong strength of the country, seeing the mountains of materials, and taking a handful of money to fill their pockets are almost instinctive reactions, because they are afraid of poverty, many people have been educated and have repeatedly refused to change, and the consequence is that prisons and prisons are unconsciously filled with people.

This was not a problem in Jingnan City, which was a problem in all of Nanhua at that time.

After suffering for many years, out of fear for the future, the people's hearts hope to quickly accumulate materials and capital that can cope with any adverse environment through various means. The so-called "knowing honor and disgrace with a long time" actually means that only after the people are rich can they abide by the law and discipline.

This kind of problem arises not only for peasants who have moved to the cities to work, but also for all walks of life in the country, and the people, after turning over and becoming masters, want to make a fortune in this peaceful environment as much as possible, get rid of poverty, or ascend to a higher class to improve their living conditions.

Under these circumstances, since last year, the central government has begun to carry out "anti-corruption, anti-waste, and anti-bureaucracy" among the functionaries of the party and government organs in South China, and "anti-bribery, anti-tax evasion, anti-theft of state property, anti-cutting corners, and anti-theft of national economic information" among industrial and commercial workers and migrant workers in urban areas.

According to the regulations, first-time offenders can be treated leniently as long as they undergo a thorough examination and state that they "do not know the law". After a second offense, it will be dealt with as appropriate, but most of them will be released after a thorough education, and the third offender will be punished with no mercy and severe punishment, up to eight years of hard labor, which is more frightening.

After severely punishing a group of criminals in order to set an example, the people knew that the government was going to be serious, and in their hearts, compared with the completely different life before and after the An Jiajun took over, many people secretly scolded themselves for being obsessed, so they all followed the rules, social order quickly improved, and the construction of Jingnan was finally on the right track.

Although the renovation of the old town of Jingnan City has not yet been completed, it has presented a new atmosphere, which makes An Yi and his entourage very satisfied.

On November 3, 1941, when An Yi and his entourage were preparing to leave for the Delaa nuclear base for inspection, news came from northern China that after more than a year of delay, Wang Jingwei finally formally established a puppet government and completely embarked on the road of becoming enemies of the people.
