Chapter 302: Violent Revolution (3)
Ding Weifen took a fast mail boat to get off the sun day and night, and then changed to the steam truck of the transportation company all the way to the west, went south through the Yihe River to take the canal, and crossed Weishan Lake and Zhaoyang Lake to go ashore.
Ding Weifen used this to encourage everyone: "When we complete the national revolutionary cause, vigorously build railways and expressways, and then integrate the national water network and transportation, it will be common for us to reach thousands of miles in all directions." At that time, there is no need to suffer from this turmoil. ”
The young revolutionaries, with an average age of twenty years old, were inexhaustible with enthusiasm, and with his encouragement, they soon forgot about their physical fatigue. When they arrived at Yutai, they were so shocked by the frenzy that they forgot everything!
At the entrance of the county seat, the most conspicuous places are plastered with the first deputy notices, and the fonts the size of teacups are clearly written in easy-to-understand words and clear and unambiguous sentences. Several literate and hyphenated commentators such as storytellers and Luo Di Xiucai stood on both sides, taking turns to repeatedly explain in the local dialect to the people who came and went, and patiently answered their questions.
Soldiers in black uniforms, in small squads, armed with rifles with bayonets, patrolled in high spirits. Its uniform pace, high morale, and fighting spirit that moved the onlookers, no one dared to show their teeth and claws in front of them, and obediently walked from the right side of the road according to the command.
The chaotic and noisy chaotic scene of the past is completely gone.
Ding Weifen and the others couldn't help but marvel in their hearts. It has only been a few days of hard work, and such an orderly world situation has been created, which shows that the execution of the special operations group is extraordinary.
Look at both sides of the street. All shops are open as usual. I really can't see the slightest trace of destruction because of the battle. There were neither beggars nor thieves on the streets. Fewer idle people than ever before. Although the faces of the people who came and went were still a little nervous, when they looked closely, they were more unfamiliar and novel about the sudden appearance of order.
From the city gate to the central street of the county, the road is clean, and there are no piles of manure on the ground where cattle and horses come and go. The steam that had just been splashed with water and baked by the scorching sun was a little choking, but the smell of lime powder mixed in it was inexplicably reassuring.
Cleaning, disinfection, order, and market stability. Open government ...... Ding Weifen corresponded to the ideal future national environment one by one, and found that each one could be correct. He suddenly understood that before leaving, Yang Hao said that the "test field" was extraordinary. Isn't this a ready-made model for practicing rapid transformation after battle?
However, these are only superficial phenomena, and he still needs to study carefully how to solve the most fundamental problems!
He instructed his entourage to scatter to various places and conduct research according to the categories he was responsible for, and Ding Weifen went straight to the county office, which had been converted into the garrison of the provisional military government, and met Xu Yanzhuo.
Xu Yanzhuo hadn't had a good rest for a long time, and his eyes were dark. After cutting off the braids, the short hair stands on end, and the corners of the mouth are unshaven. The smell of smoking is exuding from my body.
But when he saw Ding Weifen coming, he was overjoyed, stepped forward to hold his hand and shook it vigorously, laughing and said, "I was thinking about asking Mr. to send some people to help, and you arrived, okay!" This will be able to fill the gap in our backbone and prop up the shelves of this base area! ”
Ding Weifen gave him a mess of his head, and hurriedly waved his hand: "Slow down, slow down!" What's going on? You've made it clear to me first. ”
Xu Yanzhuo patted his forehead and said, "I'm so busy and dizzy, I didn't expect to really move before, it's so troublesome." Here's a summary, so let's take a look at it in general first. ”
As he spoke, he casually threw him a thick book of poorly bound texts, and asked him to wash his face and make herbal tea, then turned his head back to his desk to review the report.
Ding Weifen simply washed it, and after pouring a belly of herbal tea, his dizzy head from the sun was much clearer. He paid special attention to the staff who came and went, and found that no matter what clothes they were wearing, their faces were full of hope, and they were clearly full of energy for the cause they were doing.
This is a very good start, and it seems that the local population is not too reluctant to move their way of doing things, and it is not difficult to expand. But why did the gentleman keep opposing it?
Pressing the question in his heart, Ding Weifen opened the text and read it carefully.
The text is written exactly in the way they learned during their training, with a clear table of contents and synopsis at the beginning. According to the work content that must be completed, it is classified and listed one by one, and there are simple charts to mark the progress and completion progress.
The most intuitive things, agriculture, industry, medical care, education, military, and business are all well done.
Only a few days after the rebels occupied the county, they divided a considerable amount of land as public property and built it into cooperative farms. Set up a factory area and set up specific production projects according to local conditions; planning a hospital and drawing up assessment and registration management for local medical practitioners; The county schools and academies were changed to new-style schools, and primary and secondary schools were established in various towns and villages, and local talents and children were hired to train and serve as teachers.
Completed the registration and management of local business entities, redefined the tax rate and arranged for the increase of their commodity circulation assistance, established the local chamber of commerce and relied on it to establish a trade union.
In addition, local qualified young people will be screened for conscription into the army, and corresponding settling-in allowances and preferential treatment for military martyrs' families will be provided in accordance with regulations. They were liberated from clan control, integrated into the system of farms, factories, shops, etc., and linked to medical care, education, etc.
This set of things is all studied by Ding Weifen and them, and it can be said to be an effective strategy to alleviate social contradictions to the greatest extent, solve worries, and break the old rule of fools.
But the degree of execution is so high, even if Xu Yanzhuo's special operations team has been secretly planning for several months before, it still makes Ding Weifen feel incredible.
What is the reason for this result? While Ding Weifen looked back at the specific work report and detailed numbers, the doubts in his heart became bigger and bigger, but he couldn't think of an answer for a while.
However, he gradually understood why Yang Hao kept saying that it was not yet time for a full-scale revolution, because the number of qualified revolutionaries needed was too large!
In a county town, at least a dozen members of the "Huaxing Association" who are excellent, politically qualified, and have executive power are needed to serve as backbones. Ensure that there are no mistakes in the classification of each important matter. This also involves the details of government affairs and general affairs. If it's just a few people to replace the magistrate. will definitely be hollowed out by the old oilmen below who have been officials for generations.
This requires more than just brilliant administrators among them. It is also necessary to have professional and excellent professional professionals, and the division of labor and cooperation can ensure that nothing goes wrong.
Xu Yanzhuo's special operations team has only a dozen backbones, but now it has already controlled two counties, which seems to be overstretched. Although it is more convenient for them to use force to suppress the resistance forces at any time, in the long run, it will leave the sequelae of military interference in politics.
Ding Weifen counted the numbers. I can't help but gasp! It takes more than a dozen people in one county, and in 1,487 counties across the country, at least 20,000 backbone members can be raised. But now there are only more than 1,000 members of the entire "Huaxing Association", and more than 100 are officially qualified. The distance from the demand target is calculated by a hundredfold.
20,000 qualified members is the bottom line, or 20,000 officials who have reached the qualified line in terms of ideology, morality, integrity, intelligence, and intelligence, no matter which party or faction they are in the future, in short, they must be qualified to take responsibility. This does not include officials at the provincial level at the higher levels of the state capital, and below there is also the township level.
According to the bureaucratic system plan given by Yang Hao, it will take at least hundreds of thousands of people to cover all departments. I want to train hundreds of thousands of people. How juvenile is that? Five years is the minimum, right? Selection and transformation from the old bureaucracy and old literati? This effort is not ordinary.
Then again, so few people. How can you do so many things, how can you do it?
Xu Yanzhuo did not forget to pay attention to his reaction while he was busy. Seeing him holding Wen Jiàn and thinking about it, he put away the pen in his hand with a smile, stood up and patted him on the shoulder: "It's not intuitive to just look at the number of words, it just so happens that there is a public trial meeting today, you go and see it with your own eyes, and you will know the mystery of this work." ”
Although Ding Weifen's body was tired, his spirit was even more excited, and he couldn't sleep tonight if he didn't understand it.
put down Wen Jiàn and came to the street with Xu Yanzhuo. It didn't take long for the sound of gongs and drums in the distance, and someone shouted loudly with a loudspeaker.
A row of ox carts creaked east of the city, and there were dozens of them. In each car, a prisoner of varying height, shortness, fat and thinness was strapped to it. Behind their necks stood a two-foot-tall wooden plaque with their names written in large red lacquer letters.
Loudspeakers set up on the street began to be heard in the local dialect, detailing the identity and crime of each criminal. The strips are clear and detailed, and there is no pretension at all.
The people in the county quickly stood on both sides of the street, and slowly moved forward with the movement of the ox carts. Dozens of cars passed, and thousands of people followed, all of whom honestly obeyed the rules under the scolding of the black-clothed soldiers, and did not dare to run around and make trouble.
Ding Weifen was surprised in his heart, and asked: "I heard that the people here are irritable and stubborn, and they often draw their fists against each other. How do you seem so docile today? ”
In the past, when the knife was killed, it was as lively as a big opera, adults shouted and children screamed, and bastards and scoundrels ran all over the street, which was simply a rare and pleasing thing. What I saw today was the excesses of the rules, which was really weird.
A trace of hideousness flashed over Xu Yanzhuo's slightly gray face, and he said indifferently: "Stubborn people, when the troops entered the city, they had almost killed them. No matter how rude and rude you are, you always know the truth of being afraid of death. ”
From his tone, Ding Weifen heard a murderous aura that was difficult to hide! There is no doubt that the hands of this comrade scholar are probably covered with blood.
In troubled times, the rebel army must not be soft if it wants to gain a firm foothold.
The convoy reached the city of Luoma in the west of the city, where the shed had already been dismantled into a large open space and a raised platform had been erected. The bullock cart stopped, two soldiers escorted a criminal to the stage, and the officer presiding over the trial shouted the name and charges of the criminal with a loudspeaker, and then asked the onlookers to give evidence on whether the charges were true.
But whoever is pulled out as a typical one, one is counted as one who has not been wronged at all. It is not uncommon for these landlords and bullies to grow and sell opium, to prosecute prostitutes in cigarette pipes and casinos, to raise thugs and evil slaves to run rampant in the countryside, and to collude with the upper and lower levels to seize people's land and property and forcibly occupy good families. Whether it is according to the laws of the Qing Dynasty or according to the laws and regulations of the provisional government, they are all innocent.
Some desperate victims first came to the stage to complain, and then insiders whose family members joined the army followed the news, and the warm atmosphere at the scene was quickly ignited. As the people arranged in it shouted and denounced, there were more and more sufferers, which gradually triggered a group effect.
The criminals who were still scolding the rebels with their necks and threatening to intimidate witnesses with "turn around and kill your whole family" were beaten down. As the presiding judge categorically announced the confiscation of his illegal gains and the execution of him, the man was already wailing in despair and paralyzed like mud!
Such methods, in front of the public, have enumerated all kinds of crimes, making the criminals feel as if they were naked in the city, and the fear that penetrates into the marrow of the marrow grabs their hearts! Those in the back, who couldn't stand on the stage when they went to stand, wept and wiped their tears and begged for mercy and repentance.
But at this time, the hatred in the hearts of the masses has been ignited, and their ugly faces will only be lashed out more mercilessly!
Rao is Ding Weifen's heart is like iron and stone in the battlefield, and he can't help but shudder at the boiling anger and tide of hatred of thousands of people!
He tried to calm down and asked Xu Yanzhuo: "What will happen to these people's property if their property is confiscated?" ”
Xu Yanzhuo said: "Part of the compensation for the victims, and the rest will be confiscated." Otherwise, where did you get so much land, money, and money to build public facilities and farms? (To be continued......)
