In the afternoon in the northeast, although the sun is still lazily hanging in the sky, people can't see the slightest warmth, and some, only shivering with cold.

Even if it's such a cold weather. The autumn wind was bleak, and the dead branches were flying, but there were still many people wearing cotton jackets and sallow faces gathered in front of a chic courtyard courtyard.

In the small courtyard, from time to time, the cries of women and the cries of men can be heard.

"Phew, you have today, too." Chen Laosan looked and listened to the bursts of women crying and men shouting inside, but there was a trace of tears in the corners of his eyes in his heart.

This place, he is too familiar with, his father, because this landlord relied on his brother to be an official in the general's mansion, he robbed the only piece of land in his family, and his father went to reward them, and they were beaten to death in front of the door. I had no life here, so I took my daughter-in-law and went to Jilin City to find things to make up for the bowl to support my family.

Yesterday, he saw a group of soldiers in the city going out of the city to look in the direction of his hometown, and when he heard that the landlord who had forced his father to death had not handed over the title deed, he was curious to follow the group of soldiers all the way, and after a night of travel, he finally returned to his home where he had been separated for two years.

After entering the village, he did not follow the Lushun army who came to him, but went to his home to take a look, the house is still like that, but it is more dilapidated than before, and the cold wind blowing from time to time will blow the thatch on the roof into the sky.

After a period of sorrow, he turned around and walked towards the landlord's house, but when he came to the place, he had already found that there were already many people watching in front of the door, and there were bursts of shouting from inside.

"My eldest brother is a general of the General's Mansion, and my eldest brother is a general of the General's Mansion." A fat head with big ears and a bulging belly was being dragged into the yard like a dead dog by two Lushun soldiers. And then, several women with rouge faces wept and cried.

The fat body obviously also made it quite difficult for the two strong Lushun to drag up. Even so, this does not prevent them from carrying out orders.

An officer wearing the rank of captain stood in the courtyard with a gloomy face, silently staring at the fat pig-like landlord in front of him, glanced at it contemptuously, turned his head and asked the soldier next to him: "Have you found the title deed?" ”

"Report, has been found, the first row is being registered."

"Okay, tell the first row immediately, after the registration is completed, immediately assemble and go to the next place, as for this person," said here, the captain pointed to the landlord who was howling incessantly: "The commander has an order, immediately execute the execution, and seal the courtyard." ”

Syllable...... A gunshot rang out, and all of a sudden, the women who were crying and crying suddenly shut up.

Yes...... The woman's shrill screams were sent into the distance......

Jilin, the temporary headquarters of the Second Corps, Duan Qirui excitedly raised a stack of documents in his hand. This document is a title deed document that has just been harvested from all over the country and urgently sorted out by the staff staff and collected from all over the place.

In the hall, he was discussing the reorganization of the Qing army in front of the map with Yi Ketang, and Duan Qirui's face was full of brightness, and Feng Guozhang suddenly dropped the pen in his hand: "Old Duan, if I guess correctly, is it that the title deed has been fully collected." ”

Duan Qirui was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Yes, so the title deed has been fully collected, and now we can arrange for the personnel to distribute the land to the people according to the order of the marshal." ”

Well, Feng Guozhang nodded and looked at Yike Tang'a next to him: "Not long ago, I discussed with Tang Lao that we, the Sange people, entered Shengjing, Jilin and Heilongjiang respectively to supervise officials in various places, so as not to let anyone interfere with them." Fill your pockets.

Duan Qirui also has such thoughts, after all, Jilin Shengjing and Heilongjiang are not as good as Liaodong, and in the Liaodong area, the Lushun Army is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the officials in various places do not dare to be presumptuous under the majesty of Liu Jun and the supervision of Zhong Lin's Intelligence Bureau, but in this Sange place, these three places have just been occupied, and it is very likely that some officials will have illegal behaviors.

"I suggest that in this land reform, we should set up a complaint office in various places, and if there is an official who is corrupt and bends the law, then the people can complain. Once we receive a complaint, we immediately dispatch personnel to investigate, and if we find out that there is a wrongdoing, there will be no forgiveness. ”

"Okay, just do it." Feng Guozhang slapped his thigh.

Several people were discussing the question of who was going where, when a telegraph man in a gray military uniform walked in with a telegram in his hand: "Report, Lushun urgent telegram." After speaking, the telegraph man handed the telegram in his hand to Feng Guozhang, who was sitting on the table.

Feng Guozhang glanced at the content of the telegram, raised his eyes and looked at the two people who were looking at him, sighed Feng Guozhang said slowly: "The commander has an order, the three of us will return to Lushun immediately." The rest of the land reform matters were entrusted to the deputy commanders of the corps. ”

All returned to Lushun, Duan Qirui frowned, looked at Duan Qirui, and then looked at Yi Ketang'a, who also looked puzzled.

"Is there going to be a war? The marshal summoned us urgently? ”

"I don't know, it shouldn't be, it said, not only us, Ding Ruchang, commander of the Pyongyang First Corps, but also the deputy commander of the Corps will return to Lushun." After Feng Guozhang finished speaking, he handed the telegram in his hand to Duan Qirui.

Duan Qirui glanced twice, folded the telegram, and looked at the wind-blown pine trees outside the window: "Since it is the order of the marshal, we should obey it." I see that the matter of going to various places to supervise will be handed over to our deputy commander, and we should return to Lushun immediately. ”

The two nodded, and began to walk out of the hall separately, going to the local headquarters to find their own assistants and staff officers.

After explaining everything, several people took more than a dozen guards out of the south gate of Jilin that afternoon and rushed to Lushun.

At the Lushun Headquarters, Liu Jun cocked Erlang's legs very much with great enjoyment.

As if being touched by low-voltage electricity, the whole body shook rhythmically with the shaking of the legs.

Idle, idle. Agrarian reform in the northeast was well underway, and Klinder sent a telegram that Germany had agreed to cooperate secretly with him.

God favors Liu Jun very much, so that he has nothing to worry about?

His relaxed expression made Zhong Lin next to him keep raising his head, and his face was like a bitter gourd that he wanted to speak and stopped several times, but he swallowed the words until he reached his mouth, and he could only grab the fruits placed on the table from time to time to vent his hatred.

He never understood why Liu Jun suddenly gave an order that made him puzzled yesterday.

With this order, the three corps commanders, Li Rong, and Iktanga were to return to Lushun urgently.

Ding Ruchang, commander of the First Corps, and Li Rong returned Sister Li, North Korea is now very calm, and everyone is safe, but the northeast is different, just occupied, people's hearts are unstable, and it is difficult to think that some people are bold and want to make small moves.

"Head, I really can't figure it out, why did you want to transfer back Duan Qirui and the three of you," Zhong Lin, who was sitting at the table, couldn't help it. Toss the uneaten apples in the garbage basket to the side and speak your mind.

Liu Jun, who had never opened his eyes, slowly opened his eyes, smiled slightly, took a sip of the tea on the table, and then slowly stood up and asked: "Lao Tzu asks you, our current troops are nearly 150,000, if you count the Jilin Army and the Heilongjiang Army that are about to be reorganized. In addition to the Navy, we are almost 200,000 people, these 200,000, how to feed them? ”

"People." Zhong Lin didn't think about it for a while, so he said his answer.

With a snap, Liu Jun threw a book on Zhong Lin's head.

Last night, Liu Jun stood up straight and came to the map, where was the map of the three generals' districts in the entire northeast and the map of Liaodong and the northern part of Korea under his own jurisdiction.

"Head, where did I say something wrong?" Zhong Lin touched his smashed head, looking aggrieved.

Glancing at Zhong Lin, Liu Jun slowly exhaled.

The people, the army is dependent on the people to support, but it can also overburden the burden of the people at home, and it is not possible to tax the people's families because of the expansion of the army.

"Head, you mean, to cut the army?" Zhong Lin's eyes widened. The face is incredible.
