Chapter Eighty-Four: The Storm Rises Again

Wang Da was still very restrained in public, and some cadres sent by the Eighth Route Army tried to sabotage the take-up but were also stopped by him. But in private, especially when he was alone with Zheng Weiguo, he seemed extremely angry. He stared at Zheng Weiguo angrily and said, "Why do you want to do this, just to become a master?" ”

Zheng Weiguo pretended to be puzzled and said with a smile: "What did I do wrong to make County Magistrate Wang so angry?" ”

Wang Da snorted and said, "Fill me with garlic less!" You say, why do you want to accept Jiang Jieshi's name? ”

Zheng Weiguo teased: "What's this, didn't your Eighth Route Army also accept Jiang Jieshi's name?" I said, County Magistrate Wang, when you talk about the national united front now, is your thinking still stuck in the period of class struggle? This is not going to work, we have to change it as soon as possible. ”

Wang Da didn't expect Zheng Weiguo's words to suddenly become so sharp, and he couldn't help but be speechless for a while. He was stunned for a moment and said, "I'm not worried about you yet!" Tell me honestly, whether you are an underground party member or not. ”

Zheng Weiguo was noncommittal, and said: "Yes what, no, what? ”

Wang Da said angrily: "If it's not, whoever you love to accept will accept whom; If so, how will you make it clear in the future? How to explain to the organization? ”

Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "Don't worry about this matter, has it been negotiated in Mingren Village?" ”

Wang Da said: "It has been negotiated a long time ago, and now the arsenal has started construction, and it can start within a month." ”

Zheng Weiguoqi said: "So fast! Due to the remote location of Mingren Village, Zheng Weiguo thought that it would take at least 38 years to start construction, after all, it takes time to build roads and factories.

Wang Da explained that they had divided the project into several parts at the same time. The first team is responsible for road repairs; The second team transported some of the lighter machines to Mingren Village first; The third team began construction at the selected site of the arsenal. The simultaneous implementation of these three tasks greatly shortened the construction time. Zheng Weiguo thought about it for a while, isn't this the legendary parallel project? Although it is the simplest parallel model, you can also see the wisdom of the Chinese people.

At the thought of having his own military industry soon, Zheng Weiguo was extremely happy. He said, "Lao Wang, this time it's really thanks to you. As soon as the arsenal starts, I will ask Master Liu for credit! ”

Wang Da was a little excited and said, "Who is rare about this!" ”

Zheng Weiguo asked again: "Do you have any requirements from the Mingren Village?" ”

"Basically, no, but they said that if the people from the arsenal moved there, they would like to be able to intermarry with the people from their village," Wang said. ”

Zheng Weiguo said: "It's nothing, marriage is free!" ”

Wang Da nodded and said, "Yes, I told them that as long as it is not a business marriage, there is no problem with forced marriage." Also, I proposed monogamy, and they agreed. ”

Zheng Weiguo was also a little surprised, didn't people at that time pay attention to three wives and four concubines? But if you think about it, you can understand that there are not many girls in Mingren Village, and if a villager marries a few wives, many people will be beaten as singles, which is not allowed in the whole village without children for many years.

Wang Da mentioned another thing, saying: "The security corps and the county government now control a large amount of arable land, so why should they not distribute it to the landless peasants? You don't think about the landlord anymore! ”

Since the security regiment started its army, it has successively copied several bully landlords, such as Zhang Dahu in the county seat, Wei Huairen in the fourth district, and so on. A large amount of land held by these families also fell into the hands of the security group. It is said that the distribution of land to the peasants would reduce their burdens, improve the political status of the Corps, and increase its influence. But Zheng Weiguo did not do so, because he planned to set up a special production and construction force. After all, smallholder farmers are too inefficient to compare with farms.

Wang Da exclaimed in surprise and said, "What, you want to build a farm?" ”

Zheng Weiguo was a little confused and said, "Is there any problem?" ”

Wang Da thought for a moment and said cautiously: "Isn't that an agricultural capitalist?" That's not good! ”

Zheng Weiguo waved his hand and said, "Isn't the farm owned by me personally, and the collective ownership system is not good?" ”

Unexpectedly, Wang Da was shocked when he heard this. He whispered to Zheng Weiguo: "Don't say anything about this, because your method is Li Lisan's "leftist" adventurist land policy, and it will be criticized. Don't think that you can do anything wrong now that you are separated from the party organization, and you will not be able to bear it after the review when the time comes! ”

In the final analysis, Wang Da still believes that Zheng Weiguo is an underground party. Zheng Weiguo did not refute this, because he really didn't know how to explain to the organization. Say you're here in time? If you don't think of a spy, you have to treat it as a mental patient.

When Li Lisan was in charge of the work of the central authorities, he really proposed to set up collective farms. The Provisional Law on Land, adopted by the National Congress of Regional Soviet Representatives, clearly stipulates the "organization of collective farms" and "the practice of collective production."

For example, Hubei and Henan decided to run five farms in Huang'an, three each in Macheng, Huangpi, and Guangshan, and one in Luoshan.

Eight of the ten districts in Huang'an have started to run them, and they have first set up in Changcong in the third district and Qiliping in the fourth district. In Changcong, all 70 to 80 local farmers were moved to the side and planted, and more than 40 workers and more than 10 big cattle were gathered.

Workers are paid according to grades, food and clothing are completely provided by the government, and their lives are very comfortable. It took three months, and the money cost thousands, but it turned out that I just cut some firewood and made some dung. The peasants moved around, did not do a lot of preparatory work for production, suffered great losses, and scolded them for "going crazy" and "revolutionizing the revolution on the heads of the common people." This method of moving the peasants out of the land to run farms was in fact a policy of "state ownership of the land" and a serious detachment from the masses, causing "the peasants to feel that the agrarian revolution was Soviet, not the peasants themselves"

, so it simply doesn't work. By the spring of 1931, these collective farms were completely abolished.

Wang Da is an old revolutionary, and these things are clear. Listening to his story, Zheng Weiguo couldn't help frowning, and it was okay to be criticized, if it really made the people and money, it would not be good.

Zheng Weiguo was silent for a while, and said: "I have to think about the land issue again, Xie Lu, thank you, Lao Wang!" ”

Wang Da smiled and said: "It's okay, I know that your starting point is good, but we are organized people, don't act recklessly, you must remember this!" ”

Zheng Weiguo nodded and didn't speak, it seems that he really didn't think it through and thought about the problem too simply.

Since all other work was on the right track under the auspices of Lao Gen, Li Zhen'an, Wang Da, and others, Zheng Weiguo concentrated on training the troops. In particular, the four main battalions urgently need to be run in, and the squad and platoon tactics also need to be practiced more.

On this day, Zheng Weiguo was preparing to take his troops to the field for long-distance training. Yu Laogen rushed over panting and said, "Tuanzao, I have received an urgent military situation!" Although he is now the commander of the 33rd Division, Zheng Weiguo requires that he still be called the regiment commander internally and the division commander externally.

Zheng Weiguo hurriedly asked, "What's the situation?" ”

Yu Laogen crossed his waist and said: "There is news from the inside that the devil has set up a trap on the Pinghan line, let us not be fooled." ”

Zheng Weiguo took the information and looked at it carefully. It turned out that the two major cases of the collective disappearance of the garrison at the Yuanshi Railway Station and the bizarre robbery of the military train shocked the top level of the Japanese North China Front. In particular, a squad was suspected of treason, and even the military department was alarmed. The officers investigating the two cases were under a lot of pressure, but they made no progress for several days.

In this case, some people put forward a strategy to lure the snake out of the hole, hoping to find out the "mysterious black hand" behind the two major cases. For this reason, they deliberately laid a huge trap in Zanhuang County. Of course, the incense bait is also extremely abundant. It's just that the Japanese army didn't expect that this bureau had just been laid out, and it had already been identified by the target.

Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "It seems that the devil is going to work in vain!" You informed all battalions to maintain combat readiness, and I guess the devils will make big moves next. Oh, and also, report this situation to the Eighth Route Army, so that they can be on guard. ”

While the two were talking, Wang Da hurried over on horseback. His riding skills are very poor, and his crooked appearance on horseback is very worrying to watch.

Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "Lao Wang, you still need to practice this skill. Don't ride so fast, be careful of falling! ”

Wang Da didn't speak, jumped straight off the horse, and almost fell on his heel.

Zheng Weiguo realized that something was wrong, so he hurriedly helped him up and said, "Something happened!" ”

Wang Da didn't mention it in one breath, he covered his heart for a long time and couldn't speak, and he was about to kill Zheng Weiguo and Yu Laogen. Fortunately, Lao Gen brought a kettle with him, and he poured it down with a mouthful of water, which finally made Wang Da relieved.

Zheng Weiguo said: "What is it that makes you anxious like this? ”

Wang Da said: "The cavalry battalion of our division and the guerrillas of western Hebei went to Lijia Town. ”

The Western Hebei guerrillas and the cavalry battalion of the 129th Division operated in the area from Shimen to Handan on the Pinghan Line, overlapping with the scope of activities of the security regiment. Some time ago, they also sent people to join forces with the security group to fight a few big battles, but Zheng Weiguo thought about it and didn't agree. He is now focusing on the construction of the base area, and does not want this process to be interrupted.

As soon as Wang Da's words fell, Zheng Weiguo and Yu Laogen exclaimed at the same time, saying, "Is it Lijia Town in Zanhuang County?" ”

Wang Da was slightly surprised, and said, "Do you also know about the trap of the devil in the Dao Dao?" ”

Zheng Weiguo nodded and said, "I just got the news, and I'm about to inform you!" What are you doing here? Tell them to retreat! ”

Wang Da looked frustrated and said, "If I can get in touch, do I still need to be in such a hurry?" I really have no choice but to beg you to send troops! ”
