Chapter 182: "Outline for the Development of Chahar Province" (1) (Asking for subscriptions, monthly passes, and various !! )
The training of the troops can be handed over to the commanders of each division and brigade to personally grasp it, but the overall development strategy of Chahar Province can only be done by Chen Feng himself, and no one can replace him.
Now Chahar Province has a name and territory, but it still lacks many necessary things, such as the most important development plan, such as the economic construction system, the political construction system, etc., which are all blank. Therefore, Chen Feng should take advantage of the fact that the Japanese army has not made a big move to plan the road that Chahar Province will take in the future, which is related to the survival and development of the 40th Group, and he must not be sloppy at all.
In fact, Chen Feng had already written something similar to the development outline before, and also implemented a few items according to the relevant ideas in it, but after all, it was not implemented comprehensively, and Chen Feng also felt that the thing he wrote before had many loopholes and needed to be carefully considered, so after returning to Xinghe, he revised these things day and night, and finally changed the 38-page document before March 10.
The title of the document is very straightforward -- "Outline for the Development of Chahar Province," and this strategic plan is divided into four parts, the first is the outline of the political construction of Chahar Province, the second is the outline of the economic development of Chahar Province, the third is the outline of the military development of Chahar Province, and the fourth is the outline of the development of science, education, culture, and health in Chahar Province.
The first article is about the political system of Chahar Province, because most of the places in Chahar Province have fallen before, only the former Xinghe, Shangdu, Jining, Fengzhen, Taolin, Tianzhen, Yanggao, Datong, Zuoyun, Youyu these counties were not occupied by the Japanese army, and the rest were the territory of the Japanese army before.
After the Japanese occupation, the local government was devastated. In many places, the local government either became a traitor or was destroyed by the Japanese army, so if Chen Feng wanted to really take over the affairs of Chahar, and as the provincial chairman of Chahar Province, he had to build an efficient, honest and capable political work force to re-establish the political power in more than 20 counties and cities.
But Chen Feng doesn't have so many political cadres in his hands now, let alone 20 counties and cities, even half of the staffing is not enough. According to Chen Feng's plan, the new local government will include the following parts: the four administrative districts of Chanan, Suidong, Yanbei, and Xinghe under the province, with counties under the administrative regions and townships under the counties. There are administrative villages under the township.
Chahar Province has five departments: the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Propaganda and Education, and the Ministry of Armed Forces. In the administrative districts, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Industry, the Department of Commerce, the Department of Mission, and the Ministry of Armed Forces have been set up. In the county, the Agricultural Bureau, the Industrial Bureau, the Propaganda Bureau, and the Armed Forces Department were set up. In townships and towns, agricultural sections, industrial sections, commercial sections, propaganda and education sections, and militia squads have been set up.
After this division. The province of Chahar Province is divided into five systems, namely the agricultural system, the industrial system, the commercial system, the education system, and the armed system.
Due to the lack of political cadres in Chahar Province, Chen Feng borrowed from the Chinese government on the political construction of Chahar Province. The principle of the "three-three system" implemented in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Border Region was decided to be implemented in Chahar Province as well. However, this three-three system and medium. The three-three system implemented in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Border Region is different. Middle. The CCP's three-three system is aimed at establishing a democratic regime with a united front nature. It is a kind of coalition government composed of people from all parties and social strata. The specific content is: In terms of the composition of the Senate, the highest organ of power in the jurisdiction, the total number of people. Senators from the Industrial Party, Democratic Parties and Non-Party Patriots. Centrist senators, one-third each.
However, in Chahar Province's three-three system, there are no senators of democratic parties, patriots without party affiliation, and there are no senators of centrist personages. A third of each is represented in the Chahar Provincial Government.
In the new government, the 40th Army was under the joint control of all three parties, except for the absolute control of the army and the production of munitions.
Chen Feng thought about it seriously, and invited people from Yan'an to serve in the new government, and Lao Jiang was bound to be very unhappy. But Chen Feng dared to guarantee that Lao Jiang would not take any drastic measures except that he was unhappy, on the one hand, Lao Jiang still counted on Chen Feng to provide him with weapons and equipment. On the other hand, Lao Jiang himself was actually very clear that he was ready to give up Chahar Province to Chen Feng when he appointed Chen Feng as the chairman of Chahar Province. Just like Yan Xishan's Shanxi and Suiyuan, Liu Xiang's Sichuan, and Li Bai's Guangxi, Lao Jiang can't intervene in these places at all.
Now Chen Feng said that he wanted to invite the total. Lao Chiang was very dissatisfied with the arrival of the Industrialists in the new government, but Chen Feng also invited representatives of the Nationalist Government to serve in the new government, believing that with the supervision of these people, Lao Chiang should be relieved. What's more, now that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are in a period of cooperation, the distance between the warlords and the Communist Party in many places is not as clear as the Nationalist Government imagined, such as the World War II Zone, which was divided for a long time. The industrial party is the guest of honor of Chief Yan, and even the new army is also a communist. The party trained on its behalf.
And Chen Feng also plans to sell Lao Jiang a face, if the national government agrees to his plan, then the bastard Xue who Lao Jiang cares about will not embarrass Chen Feng.
Chen Feng really has no choice, without a sound local government, his Chahar provincial government is just blind, and many things can't be done at all. Things like the census, the implementation of universal military service, and so on, all of these things need to be done by people.
Their old Chen family has always been a business family, where did so many political cadres come from, they must ask for help from these two sides. After some statistics, if you want to put up the scaffolding of the Chahar provincial government, not counting the armed forces, you need 2,150 political work cadres, which is not a small number, even if Chen Feng has now put up the local governments of those dozen or so counties, it is only a mere seven or eight hundred political work cadres, and there is still a big gap between more than 2,000 people.
The second article is an outline of economic construction formulated for the economic construction of Chahar Province, because it was a war period, in order to support the long-term war of resistance, Chen Feng planned to carry out a comprehensive economic construction of "Songun Economy" in Chahar Province.
The so-called Songun economy means that all economic construction must put the needs of the troops first, and all economic construction is to serve the army and even the war. In all the economic construction of the Chahar province, priority is given to the development of heavy industry and military industry, followed by light industry and agriculture. In terms of economic components, Chahar Province implements an economic component with multiple economic components, including a public economy run by the government or institutions, schools, and military units; a cooperative economy of collective activity based on private ownership; The private capitalist economy as well as the individual economy of the working people. At the same time, there are still remnants of the landlord economy in Chahar Province, and as long as the landlord class still recognizes itself as Chinese and supports the army in fighting devils, then the interests of the landlords will also be protected.
In the process of economic construction, Chen Feng highly admired the planned economy implemented by New China in the difficult period of poverty and whiteness, and only by concentrating limited strength could we accomplish great things. Therefore, Chen Feng demanded that the public sector economy should be dominant, although it does not necessarily have to be the majority in terms of quantity. The government must control the finance, finance, and foreign trade, which are the lifeblood of the national economy, and the public economy must be the backbone and the strength of leadership.
The third military development outline mainly sums up the successful experience of managing the army since the formation of the army, determines what kind of unit the 40 th Group Army will develop into in the future, and also expounds in detail what the 40 th Group Army will do in the future.
According to the outline, in the next three years, the 40th Group will mainly use the North China Front and the Kwantung Army of the Japanese army as its main enemies, and the scope of operations against the enemy will not only be limited to the five provinces and cities in North China, but will also be extended to the Saibei Grassland and the four northeastern provinces (including Rehe). The 40 th Group Army should use three years to build itself into a mechanized unit with a strong comprehensive combat capability of no less than 500,000 people, and the army should not only build more than four integrated divisions, but also build a comprehensive combat force including cavalry, engineers, baggage troops, artillery, air defense troops, armored troops, aviation units, and special forces, of which the scale of artillery and armored units and aviation units should be increased, with no less than five artillery brigades, no less than three armored divisions, and no less than three aviation divisions of aviation units.
In order to build such a huge army, it is necessary to implement a province-wide compulsory military system. Therefore, Chen Feng plans to carry out a census of the urban population throughout the province and implement a universal compulsory military system. To this end, Chen Feng specially formulated the "Chahar Provincial Military Service Law," which stipulates the implementation of a military service system that combines compulsory soldiers and volunteer soldiers.
In accordance with the provisions of the Military Service Law, from 15 May 1938, all young men and women over the age of 18 and under the age of 45 in Chahar Province are obliged to perform military service, regardless of nationality, race, occupation, family origin, religious belief and educational level, except for single-child families.
After 15 May, they were assigned to designated locations in order of men and women to join local militia squads for military training. In peacetime, these militia units are responsible for local law and order, and in wartime, they help field troops maintain order in the rear. If the combat effectiveness of the militia unit reaches a certain standard, it can be upgraded to a regular force after assessment. At the same time, the militia units are also reserve soldiers of the regular field troops, and after the completion of the three-month military training for recruits, all militia units may be drawn into the battlefield as supplementary soldiers at any time.
Except for volunteers who must serve for more than 10 years before they can be discharged, the period of compulsory service is only 6 years, and after 6 years, conscripts can apply to the army for retirement.
Of course, as a guarantee, compulsory soldiers enjoy the living treatment of the supply system during their active service, and are paid allowances according to their military rank and years of active service, and enjoy treatment such as publicly-funded medical care. After the compulsory military service expires and is discharged from active service, the people's governments of townships, ethnic townships, and towns shall make proper arrangements for their production and livelihood, and give priority to hiring employees under the same conditions when recruiting them. At the same time, a one-time economic subsidy will be given, and preferential policies will be given (to be renewed......
