Chapter 29 Blocked Move-in

Target: East coast of Guangdong. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoOn August 6, a command vehicle drove the road, followed by nearly 20 Dongfeng vehicles, loaded with a battalion of personnel and materials, and set off.

After 10 hours of marching, the personnel and vehicles arrived safely at the training destination. According to the preliminary survey, the whole camp stayed in Liuyan Village, Shuidong Town. The economic conditions of this village are relatively good, the villagers are mainly family workshops, mainly producing leather shoes, there are many buildings, and they are close to the seaside, which is convenient for personnel to live in a concentrated manner, convenient for forward training, and convenient for strengthening personnel management. In the early stage of field training, most of the troops mainly borrowed civilian houses, and only when the exercise was carried out did all the personnel move to the mountains, forests, or beaches, set up tents, and camp in the wilderness. The army wins the war, and the people are the backers. Once the troops leave the barracks, much of the work of the troops will not be able to be carried out without the support of the people.

"Report to the chief, the three consecutive check-ins were blocked, and the villagers were very resistant to us moving into their homes." Company Commander Zhang of the Third Company hurriedly ran to the command post that was being opened and reported to Deputy Regiment Commander Liu.

"How many people can't live in? Do you know why? Deputy Head Liu also felt inexplicable.

"We're all wearing out our mouths, they just won't, the second and third rows haven't moved in yet." Company Commander Zhang also felt very aggrieved.

"Are there any suitable ones for other farmers?"

"Yes, but it's not too reluctant, and it's too far away from the company headquarters to be convenient for personnel to concentrate."

"Company Commander Zhang, you are like this, the officers should find a place to rest outside first. Officer Guo, you go and find out the situation. "Deputy Head Liu felt that this was a new situation and that he could not act rashly, so he ordered me to investigate and understand it first.

I went to the village committee and reported the situation to Secretary Li of the village branch. He took me to the villagers' homes to get to know them. Since the locals speak Haihua (local vernacular), we couldn't understand it, so we had to ask the locals to translate and do the work. Asking the village committee officials to come forward should have an unexpected effect.

"The People's Liberation Army wants to borrow your house for a period of time to make it convenient."

"Mother (no)."

"Why should I do it?"

Through understanding, Secretary Li roughly told us the reason. said that troops had also come before, but due to the lack of attention to some details, there were many misunderstandings and dissatisfaction among the villagers. For example, when some soldiers eat fish, they often say "turn the fish over", because there are many fishermen in the village, who make a living by fishing all year round, and they are particularly taboo about the word "turning", and feel that saying "turn" means "capsizing" is disrespectful to the villagers. In the south, every farmer's house has a shrine to pray for blessings and peace, and some soldiers don't understand it, so they move it when they clean up, which touches the feng shui of the villagers' homes. Sometimes the fighters put nails on the walls to make it easier to hang mosquito nets at night, and the locals believed that the nails were "nails" for the family when they went out...... After hearing this, I felt that our work was not done very well, and although we had specially carried out mass discipline education at home, some fighters must not understand such a detailed request. This seemingly inconspicuous matter is a major matter that has a bearing on the interests of the masses, and I immediately made a report to Deputy Head Liu.

"Chief, I suggest: First, we should immediately carry out in-depth propaganda and mobilization work among the masses, explain the nature of the troops, explain the purpose of training, and strictly enforce the discipline of the troops, so as to win the understanding and support of the masses; Second, fully understand the local people's conditions, social conditions, customs and people's conditions, and formulate detailed mass discipline regulations; Third, some of the soldiers of the Third Company did not stay for the time being, but camped in the wilderness to prove with practical actions what kind of unit we really are. "I have made three suggestions in one go, and I will ask the chief to decide.

"I agree with you, Staff Officer Sun, and inform the commander of the whole battalion to come to the command post for a meeting." It seems that Deputy Head Liu already has his specific ideas and methods.

"Chief, the personnel are here, and you can have a meeting." Staff Officer Sun reported to the chief on the attendance of the personnel.

"Urgently gather everyone to show that this matter is very important, and if it is too late, I am afraid that we will make the same mistake as others. Officer Guo, first of all, let me tell you what you have learned. "According to the instructions of Deputy Head Liu, I made reports one by one.

"According to what we learned in the early stage, the folk customs here are simple, and the situation encountered by the Third Company cannot blindly blame the local villagers for not supporting the work of our troops, and the premise is that we have not done a good job in the first place. It is believed that this situation also exists in other companies, but it has not developed to the point where the third company has encountered, and if we do not pay attention to it, we will violate the discipline of the masses, cause irreparable effects, and darken our battalion, which is famous for not committing any crimes in the autumn. Deputy Head Liu's tone became more and more stern, his eyes swept over the participants, observed everyone's attitude towards this matter, paused, and continued.

"The instructors of each company are the first responsible persons for maintaining the discipline of the masses, and they must quickly organize personnel to hang banners and slogans, make board newspapers and wall newspapers, and the fine traditions of the propaganda department, influence and educate the masses, clean up the garbage and weeds on both sides of the main road in the village, and create a beautiful and clean living environment for the masses. Why not?', so that there is execution. ā€

"The third company, we must do a good job in the work of the villagers, and win the trust and support of the villagers with practical actions, which is a test for the cadres of your company and a test for the soldiers of the whole company."

The work of settling down in the early stage is not only a test of the cadres' ability to communicate and coordinate, but also a test of our ability to extensively mobilize propaganda and education among the masses.

"It is not allowed to move the landlord's shrine without permission......

No private use of the host's landline is allowed......

Nails are not allowed in the landlord's wall......

It is not allowed to use the landlord's belongings privately......

ā€¦ā€¦ā€

The fact that they are not allowed one by one reflects the strict requirements for the soldiers, shows the importance they attach to the interests of the masses, and what they have won is the enthusiastic care and selfless support of the masses for the troops.

The officers and men of the second platoon and the third platoon of the third company found a relatively open place to "set up camp" and set strict demands on themselves in terms of daily dress, management of order, and daily work and rest. Due to the large number of people in the company and the large amount of water consumed, the water source of the pressurized water wells used by the villagers' families was difficult to bear for a while, and they were afraid of affecting the villagers' water supply, so they consciously drew water from a distance, and would rather work hard themselves than cause trouble to the villagers. They impressed the villagers with practical actions, touched the villagers, not only the original landlord took the initiative to extend an "olive branch", but even the surrounding landlords also invited them to move in, and the picture of the military and civilians was affectionate again.
