Chapter 630: The Grievance Conference (I)
"The deputy envoy of the Mongolian patrol is here, everyone salutes!"
Under the shouts of a Mongol dressed in sheepskin, the Mongolian cavalryman, who was about a hundred people, began to salute the high-speed railway party. And the high-speed railway party is accompanied by several people, and these people are also translators of the high-speed rail side, and they are the people sent by the General Intelligence Administration to the Mongolian region to set up the Mongolian intelligence station. However, this Mongolian intelligence station has the smallest number of people, because there are too few Han Chinese who can speak Mongolian, and they are not suitable for Mongolian life. However, the people of these intelligence stations have developed some people in the Mongolian region through some means. And the people of these intelligence stations have been temporarily handed over to the people of the Mongolian Military Region to be in charge of management, so now they have also sent Mongolian interpreters to the high-speed rail side, so that the high-speed rail side can get a smooth and general job during this time.
"The acting commander of the 101st Cavalry Battalion of the 1st Independent Cavalry Division, Tegus, salutes your lordship!"
This Mongolian battalion commander is currently acting because the cavalry division has just been formed, and the senior division commander-level officers and regimental commander-level officers are also selected from the original provisional First Army to serve on horseback, and the lower-level battalion commanders, company commanders, and platoon commanders are also planned to be selected from the Mongols. Because these people are often in contact with low-level soldiers, it must be very inconvenient if they don't know Mongolian, and it will be impossible to fight and rely on translation to convey orders, right? At that time, it will not be possible to have translators at every level, so it is normal for these Mongolians to serve as battalion-level cadres. What's more, we must also give these Mongolians some hope, so that they can be motivated!
The high-speed rail side saw that the military salute of this Mongolian acting battalion commander was not very standard, and then there was not much nonsense, because this cavalry unit had only been formed for three days, and it was expected that they could have a good level of daily military salute? However, their combat capabilities are quite good. On the contrary, it is faster to learn these basic military rites, because they are like this.
"Okay, Battalion Commander Tegus, I'm here today for something." Gao Tiefang said.
"Excuse me, sir, what's the matter with you?" Tegus asked.
Gao Tiefang replied: "Actually, my matter is very simple, that is, to hold a grievance meeting!" ”
When everyone doesn't understand what the grievance assembly means. The high-speed rail party took the initiative to ask the Tegus battalion commander and said, "Tegus battalion commander, I heard that you used to be a noble private army leader?" ”
"Yes, I was originally the leader of a nobleman's private army, which is why I was able to become the acting battalion commander so quickly." Tegus said.
However, the high-speed rail party immediately asked: "You didn't have a good time, right?" You aristocratic private soldiers should have a very hard life, right? ”
"Yes, because I don't have pasture, no cattle and sheep, I will be a soldier for the noble lord. And when I was a soldier, I didn't have enough to eat. I can only barely get some food. It was only when I was captain that I was able to eat some meat. Tegus replied.
Gao Tiefang then asked: "You are all herdsmen, and the grassland is full of cattle and sheep, so it can be said that there is meat everywhere, but why can't you eat meat?" ”
And Tegus replied: "The cattle and sheep on the steppe belong to the nobility, and we cannot slaughter them to eat." We are all herdsmen of noble lords, if we don't have our own pastures. So we can't feed sheep and cows. We can only graze for the nobles, so we want to eat meat. That's all about the grace of the noble lord! ”
The high-speed rail party then asked: "Are you all like this?" ”
"Yes! We are all like that! "We all help the noble lord to graze, we can only eat enough to eat, if you want to eat meat, you must get the grace of the noble lord. All the cattle, sheep and horses belong to the nobles, and the pastures are also the nobles' owns, and it is impossible for us to obtain the pastures and cattle and sheep. ”……
The Mongol cavalry also began to complain, and then they claimed that they had a very hard time. The vast majority of the herders in the steppes were also herdsmen of the Mongol aristocracy, who grazed their cattle and then did not get a harvest. The economic model on these grasslands is infinitely close to the tenant model of the Central Plains, and even inferior to the tenant model. They all relied on grazing for the aristocracy to survive. Even many times a herder does not have a lamb. Most of the wealth belonged to the nobles, and if some cattle and sheep died while grazing, the herdsmen had to pay compensation.
"In that case, do you know why their nobles can be like this? Why don't you have to work, can you help him herd the herds, and then devour most of the fruits of your labor? And you have given all your labor, but in the end you can only get a very small number of cattle and sheep, so do you know why? Do you think it's fair? The high-speed rail party asked.
But Tegus replied: "They are nobles!" ”
"But why are they nobles?" High-speed rail party asked.
"Their ancestors were nobles!" Tegus replied.
Gao Tiefang immediately asked: "Then why are their ancestors nobles, and their descendants are also nobles?" They don't have any ability to graze at all, but why do they ride on your heads and swagger and devour the fruits of your labor? What qualifications do they have to get it for nothing? Could it be that they just rely on their ancestors to be nobles, and then their descendants can always ride on your head as masters? ”
"This, yes! Why can they be nobles and we can't? "Their nobles were sealed by the imperial court, and we were not canonized by the imperial court!" "They were canonized by the imperial court, and naturally they were nobles." "We didn't get the canonization of the imperial court, so naturally we're not nobles!" "Yes! They were canonized by the imperial court, so they were naturally qualified to rule the grasslands. ”……
Everyone soon came to a result, that is, they were nobles canonized by the imperial court, so they were naturally qualified to rule the grassland. And they blamed this period on the results of the canonization of the Manchu court, so those nobles were eligible to get this opportunity to rule the steppe.
However, Gao Tiefang changed his words and said: "Could it be that a small piece of paper in the imperial court can make a person and a family get something for generations without work?" Could it be that just a piece of light waste paper from the imperial court can let them oppress you for generations, so that those who have no ability, cannot graze, and cannot lead everyone to war, just ride on your head and snatch most of the fruits of your labor? And what exactly do they have, and what do they contribute to your herding? Do you think it's fair that they just take advantage of the privileges, and then they have pastures, and then they take away more than 70% of the fruits of your labor for no reason? ”
In fact, in Wang Guorui's view, the landlord class is completely parasite and vampire. Their production and operation model, in fact, did not produce any economic benefits under this model. Their land annexation is not like the land annexation of the capital era in later generations. Land annexation in the era of capital, even if agricultural companies concentrate a large amount of land, but the purpose of their concentration of land is to be able to intensify production, and then increase the yield of grain per acre, and strive to produce more grain at the lowest cost. And this kind of intensive production, the production mode of agricultural companies is conducive to social progress, the development of agricultural science and technology, and the improvement of productivity.
However, in this landlord model, they only rely on a fluttering piece of paper, and then use their so-called ownership of the land, and then take away a large part of the fruits of the peasants' labor for no reason. What exactly did they "produce" in the process? It is still the peasants who farm the land, and they still use the same farm tools, and there is no process of increasing the output of grain and various products in the slightest. They just borrowed a fluttering title deed to prove their ownership, and then took away a large amount of grain for no reason. In this process, there was no additional increase in food, and there was no development in agricultural technology. If the ownership of those lands belonged to the tenants, then the tenants could increase their grain production by an additional 100 to 70 percent, and wouldn't it be much better? Therefore, in the class of landlords, there is no promotion of the productive forces, nor does it have any promotion of science and technology and social development, which is why all dynasties in China are also the result of reincarnation.
Now the situation in Mongolia is also caught in this strange circle, the aristocracy takes advantage of the privileges of the Manchu court canonization, as well as the so-called ownership of pastures, and then takes away a large number of the fruits of herdsmen's labor for no reason. Then they did not have any more advanced agricultural and animal husbandry technology, nor did they think about improving the quality of cattle and sheep breeds, improving grazing methods, they relied on the exploitation of herdsmen to obtain a rich and luxurious life, but they did not contribute to the progress of productivity and social progress.
Therefore, hearing the words of the high-speed rail party, many herdsmen also felt very unfair in their hearts. They work so much, but those nobles have not worked at all, they just use the so-called privileges, and then forcibly take away most of the fruits of their labor, even more than eighty or ninety percent, and they work hard but do not get much at all. They didn't just dream once, if all the cattle and sheep they could graze by themselves were their own, how nice it would be, and they could live a rich life. But this is just an "ideal", which is impossible to achieve under the model of the past.
However, now that they heard Gao Tiefang's words, their hearts suddenly became excited, and they began to scold. (To be continued.) )
