Xiao Hua sensed some of his intentions from Zhu Mingyuan's face, and asked, "Comrade Mingyuan, what's the matter?" Is it about Xiong Laoqi's sabotage? The eldest lady just revealed some. What do you know? Let's talk about it. ”

Zhu Mingyuan, the county magistrate, said: "Xiong Lao Wu and Zhang Xiaoer used the pretext of discussing rent payment and debt collection, and they also found a few guys in the village who were close to Xiong Lao Qi on weekdays, and they also followed the gang to say bad things. What do they say about reducing rents and interest rates to break the old rules of the ancestors, provoke the lord and tenant to be discordant, and other people's flesh cannot grow on their own bodies, which is a deed that hurts heaven and reason, and will provoke the anger of heaven and people. ”

Chen Shiyu was so angry that he opened his eyes: "He, what else did he say?" ”

"He also said that he had made contact with the big landowners inside and outside the county, and if the Eighth Route Army insisted on reducing rent and interest: they would ask the little devils to send troops to 'sweep' here and drive away all the Eighth Route Army. For those who accept rent and interest reductions, they will be repaid according to the actual reduction, so as to set an example for the people. He also said that the Eighth Route Army's implementation of rent and interest reduction was to give everyone a little sweetness. As soon as the rent and interest reduction passed, the young people were forced to serve as soldiers, leave Ganyu, and be dragged back to the mountains to fight guerrillas. ”

"What is the reaction of the common people?" Hu Fu asked, "Before I have time to understand it carefully, I am sure that some people have already had concerns." Zhu Mingyuan frowned and said, "Xiong Fang Jianniang was restless when she heard these words, she didn't eat dinner, and she cried and dragged Fang Jian to prevent him from coming out for a meeting tonight." I have assigned the comrades of the working group to investigate the details of the situation as soon as possible. ”

"What a bear Lao Qi is really damned! Damn it! Aunt Xiong cursed repeatedly.

"We must not let Xiong Laoqi run rampant like this, and we have to punish him severely." Xiong Fangwen's eyes widened.

"Xiong Laoqi is not just deliberately sabotage!" Chen Shiyu interjected and said, "However, some rumors can be regarded as a hint. After the Ganyu Democratic County Government issued a proclamation on rent reduction and interest reduction, Kawashima Yoshiko secretly came to Ganyu several times, and launched several sweeps the day before yesterday, which are obviously related to Kawashima Yoshiko's planning! ”

After following Gu Mu, Song Jiliu, who had not spoken, couldn't help it, and said, "His grandmother's devil leaders Tengben and Luo Chuan are both under the guise of being the descendants of Xu Fu of the Qin Dynasty, taking advantage of the psychology of the Ganyu people to respect Xu Fu and paralyze several local big landowners. We should not only focus our attention on Xiong Laoqi, but also study the whole situation as a whole. ”

"Do they really want to send troops to fight us?" Aunt Xiong was a little surprised when she heard Chen Shiyu's words.

Xiao Hua comforted the eldest lady and said: "These big landlords and wealthy owners can do any bad thing, we must have this kind of defense." **The Eighth Route Army is not afraid that they will wear the same pants as the little devils, but they are afraid that the villagers will not have the same heart with us. ”

"If this really happens, then we can only blame our work for not being able to do our work, and we can't blame the masses for falling behind." Luo Ronghuan said in an accentuated tone.

"Here's the problem." Chen Shiyu said with some self-reproach: "In the past few days, we have paid attention to propaganda and education among the masses, but we have not taken sufficient precautions against possible sabotage activities of the landlord class. In the course of propaganda work, some one-sided emphasis is placed on material interests and the greatest efforts are made to enlighten and enhance the class consciousness of the masses. From the rumors of the landlord, some of the masses are prone to disorientation. ”

Hu Fu took it and said: "In the current period of the National Liberation War, we do not publicize the class struggle too much, but this absolutely does not mean that the class struggle does not exist. Rent and interest reductions are certainly the needs of the national struggle, but in fact they are also a class struggle. We should make the masses realize that the income from rent reduction is the result of their legitimate labor, and is neither our gift nor the gift of the landlords. Only in this way will the masses consciously and justifiably take part in this struggle. ”

"Some comrades still pin their hopes on the open-mindedness of the landlords to a greater or lesser extent, and they are not bold enough to mobilize the masses to let go." Zhu Mingyuan said.

"This kind of thinking is the most unacceptable!" Luo Ronghuan said categorically, "This can only aggravate the views of the masses, blur their class consciousness, and weaken their fighting spirit." ”

"It's not just a matter of awareness, strictly speaking, it's also a matter of position." Zhu Rui's tone was unusually serious.

"It doesn't matter if you understand the problem, but also if you stand on the issue. I think it's better to study the current practical problems first. Chen Guang seemed a little anxious.

"In short, there should be some basic guiding ideology." Hu Fu said, "In the past, we did not explain enough to the cadres, which made the work take a detour. ”

"Yes, it should be carefully examined and taught a lesson." Luo Ronghuan nodded, then glanced at everyone and asked, "That's the situation, what should you do?" ”

"It is necessary to immediately expose Xiong Laoqi's conspiracy to the masses and dispel the concerns of the masses." Chen Shiyu said.

"Judging from the current situation, I am afraid that relying on ordinary propaganda and explanations alone will not be enough to mobilize the masses in a further and in-depth manner." Hu Fu thought for a moment, his face was calm and resolute, and his tone was decisive, "You should have a serious group conversation with Xiong Laoqi first, and ask him to admit his mistakes and express his attitude." Then a mass meeting of the whole village was held to ask him to confess his mistakes in front of the villagers. ”

"That's right! This old fox should be punished severely. Xiong Fangwen was the first to enthusiastically agree.

"Okay, okay." Hu Fu nodded in agreement, and said, "In order to train the backbone and educate the masses, in addition to the cadres of the working group, we might as well recruit some activists and basic people to participate in the collective talks. ”

"Let me join in, I'm going to uncover the roots of this old fox's tail!" Aunt Xiong earnestly asked.

"Auntie, that's great. Your old man shows up to say it! More weight than our words. Luo Ronghuan answered her happily. Then he turned to Zhu Mingyuan and ordered: "Hurry up and investigate Xiong Laoqi's sabotage activities, organize forces to prepare to reason, this cannon must be fired!" ”
