At 10 o'clock in the morning, four signal flares were launched into the air, and the entrance into the city began. The team is led by an armored car, 4 large floats and a military band, mechanized troops, motorized infantry, artillery, light, medium and heavy tank units, cavalry and infantry, forming a majestic procession, entering from Yongdingmen, marching majestically along Yongdingmen Street and Qianmen Street, entering Zhengyangmen and entering Dongjiaomin Lane to the east, passing through Chongwenmen Inner Street, Dongdan, Dongsi, Beixinqiao, Taiping, and meeting with the troops who entered the city from Xizhimen on another road, and then turning southward, passing through Xisi, Xidan, West Chang'an Street, Heping Gate, Luomashi Street, from Guang'an Gate out of the city.

When the troops were passing by the eastern suburbs, Wang Wenwu did not run to join in the fun like the rest of the family. Instead, stand on the roof. From afar, I watched the troops walk forward with their heads held high.

Dongjiaomin Lane used to be a place of intervention by foreign powers, and it was once an inviolable country within a country, but at this moment, the sonorous march of troops has completely changed this pattern.

The procession into the city was warmly welcomed by the masses from all walks of life. Workers, peasants, and students waved small buntings, sang revolutionary songs, and chanted slogans, while roadside radio trucks shouted: "Peking has real peace!" Warmly welcome the people *** into the city!" The whole Beiping City was thunderous with joy and immersed in a sea of joy.

The students climbed onto military vehicles to put up slogans and warmly shake hands with the soldiers. Some students climbed onto the tank and wrote in chalk: "Long live the Chinese people!" On the barrels of some of the cannons, four or five young men rode them, and they waved their hands vigorously, and put the garlands that people had thrown on the barrels. The lively and enthusiastic female students in the welcoming team twisted Yangge on both sides of the march. Guo Bao followed Ji Menghan and they waved colorful flags to welcome *** into the city.

The ceremony lasted for a whole day, and the roar of the armored convoy, the playing of bands, and the warm welcome of the people constituted the picture of this historical moment.

On the same day, the Beiping Military Management Committee and the Beiping City Government in Shaanxi also moved from the suburbs to their offices in Beiping City and began to work externally.

Under the Military Management Commission, there is a garrison command, a municipal government, a material takeover committee, and a cultural takeover committee. The garrison command is responsible for eliminating all counter-revolutionary forces and stragglers, enforcing military discipline, military law, martial law, and lifting martial law, and effectively organizing air defense; The municipal government is responsible for all municipal construction such as civil affairs, public security, justice, transportation, health, fire protection, etc., and manages various industries and overseas Chinese affairs in the urban area, and according to the needs of work, sets up nine bureaus of civil affairs, land administration, education, health, industry and commerce, public security, public utilities, public works, finance, etc., as well as people's courts, overseas Chinese management offices, cooperatives, trading companies, banks and other organizations; The Material Takeover Committee is responsible for taking over the enemy's counterfeit industries and public goods and property, confiscating bureaucratic capital, directly managing enterprises belonging to the state, mobilizing and organizing forces, supplying the needs of urban coal and grain, and according to the needs of work, it has five major departments: finance, transportation, health, military and political affairs, and housing and real estate; The Cultural Takeover Committee is responsible for taking over all public cultural and educational institutions belonging to the state and all cultural relics and historic sites, and has four major ministries according to the needs of work: education, literature and art, cultural relics, and press and publication.

The personnel of the Military Control Commission are strictly disciplined, and they "only take care of the city's industrial and commercial, municipal, and cultural organs, places of interest, state warehouses, property, materials, and all other public buildings, and they are not allowed to use them, but they are only allowed to protect them, and they are not allowed to destroy them, and they enter and leave them empty-handed." They called on every comrade to consciously abide by the policy, obey discipline, love the people, uphold the stand, ensure that the masses supervise each other, and that the cadres set an example and take responsibility according to their ranks.

On the fourth day after the peaceful liberation of Beiping, on the afternoon of that day, the weather was very cold, and Ji Menghan and Ji Jiacan came to the auditorium of the Fourth Academy of Peking University together according to the notice they received

As soon as the two of them entered the auditorium, they saw that there were many people inside. And one by one, like Ji Menghan and Ji Jiacan, they all worked hard to wrap themselves tightly so that outsiders would not recognize them.

In fact, these people, like Ji Menghan, are all underground workers who came from all over the world to hold the meeting, and these staff members walked into the venue in pairs according to the unit, waiting for the meeting to be held.

Although the big guys are tightly wrapped. But Ji Menghan still recognized his superior, approached him, and asked, "Do you know what kind of meeting this is?"

The superior said, "I don't know, I'm just like you, I was also notified. Okay, stop scurrying around, hurry up and get in.

」

Although the superior didn't say anything, Ji Menghan still guessed something. The smell of companions in this neighborhood should not be too strong.

Ji Menghan retreated to his place, and Ji Jiacan said on the side, "Did you ask what meeting this was?"

Although Ji Jiacan still covered his face, Ji Menghan could detect the excitement in Ji Jiacan's tone. Said, "What? You guessed it?"

Although Ji Jiacan has only been an underground worker for nearly a year, his progress is still very great. Even if something has already been thought of in my heart, the joy blossoms. But on the surface, he still said quite calmly: "When I was in the army, I had to hold a performance meeting after winning the battle. I guess this will be a celebration of merit, a recognition of us underground workers."

Ji Menghan may not have known before he came, but after seeing it. Ji Menghan, the participants in the meeting, recognized them at a glance as underground workers. Ji Menghan, who is commended or not, doesn't care, what she cares about is how the future work should be, the southern government only has the place south of the Yangtze River, whether she wants to go to the south to lurk again, or start a new job!

Ji Menghan seemed to have been forgotten, no one told her about her next step, and before the meeting, she always couldn't help but think about it in her mind.

Ji Menghan said, "Let's go, then go in and see if you guessed right!"

The two followed the team slowly into the venue. The venue was newly decorated, and bright red scythe and axe flags were hung above the rostrum. This is the first time many have seen such a scene with their own eyes.

Ji Menghan himself doesn't know how many underground workers Shaanxi has set up in bJ, but now he knows that there are thousands of people on the scene!

Ji Menghan watched many of the participants like herself, still maintaining the habit of working secretly, wearing big-brimmed hats and cotton masks.

Some people are still not at ease, and they put on thick toad glasses, and they can't see what they look like at all.

Until the man on the podium said, "You can get rid of your disguise, you don't need to lurk anymore." I can show my true face!"

At this time, everyone was completely relieved, and after they took off their masks and hats, they saw people who knew each other, including fathers, sons, brothers and sisters.

They clasped each other's hands, or hugged each other, shouting "Why are you also an underground party"? "It's you!"

The scene was very lively, it was like a family search meeting after many years of absence.

Some shook hands, some hugged, and some subconsciously covered their mouths with their hands and exclaimed, "Oh my God! So you are."

Before the liberation of Beiping, the organizations were underground, and they were connected with each other in a single line. Underground workers in the same unit may also belong to different underground organizations; In most cases, the personnel of the same branch do not have horizontal contact, and even when they participate in training in the rear, they are separated from each other by curtains, and they only hear each other's voices and do not see each other.

For the first time to disclose their identities, everyone's excitement and excitement were beyond words, and the meeting was not over after dark.

Ji Menghan behaved differently from most of the people present, at the scene like the family recognition conference just now, Ji Menghan also hoped to find his friends or family members in this venue like everyone else.

But after Ji Menghan happily turned around, except for the few old faces he knew, there were no surprises in the venue. Ji Menghan felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Ji Jiacan is not a native of Beiping, and he has not been in Peking for more than a year, so he naturally has no friends and family in the venue. It's just that because of the emotional infection of others, Ji Jiacan is very happy.

When the meeting ended, the venue slowly returned to calm. When Ji Jiacan saw Ji Menghan again, Ji Jiacan could feel that Ji Menghan didn't seem to be as excited as he was at the beginning, and sat beside him very silently. It's just that the leader has already spoken above, and Ji Jiacan plans to ask about the situation after the meeting.

Someone on the stage asked if everyone was hungry, and most of the audience did not want to interrupt the meeting, so they said "not hungry" against their will. Only the staff of the middle school film truthfully said that they were hungry, and they felt embarrassed to see that most of them said "not hungry". Soon someone brought in the heat

The meeting continued after everyone devoured the food such as flatbread and buns.

The conference lasted until the early morning of the next day and lasted for 13 hours. The underground staff who participated in the meeting felt great education and encouragement by listening to the profound and systematic report of the responsible comrades of the organization for the first time, and the direction of progress was clearer. After the meeting, everyone walked out of the venue with confidence and went to their respective jobs.

Ji Jiacan listened very carefully throughout the meeting, and he also knew what the most urgent task at present was the newly liberated Beiping, where the people's livelihood was withered and devastated. In the face of the mess left by decades of rule by the southern government, Peng made clear the most fundamental and long-term tasks that Beiping needed to accomplish, and put forward the urgent and concrete tasks at present.

Peng demanded that while purging the spies and rectifying order, vigorously restore and develop production; It is necessary to stabilize the people's livelihood, properly solve the current problems of finance, commodity prices, grain, coal, and other material supply, and ensure the normal needs of the people's basic material and cultural life.

On the financial front, the gold yuan bills issued by the southern government will be abolished, and all transactions must be carried out in renminbi. Although the government has suffered some losses, it has to do this in order to take care of the interests of the masses and reduce the difficulties of the masses.

In order to complete the work of collecting and exchanging the gold yuan coupons as soon as possible, we should immediately organize work teams to do a good job of exchanging the gold yuan coupons among the poor and independent laborers scattered in different parts of the country, and strive to solve the problem of exchanging the gold yuan coupons within 20 days. Only when financial stability is ensured will prices be balanced.

In terms of grain, we have prepared grain to supply the people of Peiping for a month, but the price of grain in the cities should not be too low, it should always be a little higher than in the countryside; if the price of grain in the cities is too low, the peasants will suffer losses, they will be unhappy, they will have negative feelings, and this will bring great resistance to our work.

The grain prepared by the officers' council was first supplied to the workers, faculty members, students, and office staff, and the peasants were to sell it to them through cooperatives, so that the merchants would not exploit the grain from it. It is necessary to organize the laborers in the cities to produce the industrial products needed for daily life and supply them to the vast rural areas.

At present, the Military Management Commission is transporting coal to the city that can be used for several months, with a reserve of more than 1 million catties of cooking oil, and there is no shortage of salt, so that the basic living problems can be solved and the people's livelihood will be stable. In addition, close cooperation between urban and rural areas, the establishment of cooperatives, and the crackdown on female businessmen are all necessary conditions for stabilizing people's livelihood.

As for before the leader spoke, Ji Jiacan saw that Ji Menghan was depressed, and he planned to ask about the situation after the meeting.

The two returned to their residence after the meeting, Ji Jiacan was like a student who scored a full score in the exam, and couldn't wait to show Ji Menghan everything he recorded at the meeting, of course, the more important reason was because Ji Jiacan knew that although he was much better than before, he was still not as good as Ji Menghan.

At the meeting just now, Ji Menghan must have recorded more than himself, and it was more detailed. Ji Jiacan wanted to borrow Ji Menghan's meeting minutes so that he could copy them in his notebook.

Ji Menghan is not clear about these little abacus in Ji Jiacan's heart. She thought that Ji Jiacan really just wanted to show her the results of his recent studies, and did not realize his true intentions.

Ji Menghan knows that Ji Jiacan's learning is not easy, and she sees his hard work and dedication. Although Ji Jiacan has made great progress, Ji Menghan knows that he is still trying to catch up.

Ji Menghan took the meeting minutes handed over by Ji Jiacan, she took a look at it, and found that except for the handwriting that was a little ugly, the content that should have been there. She smiled and said, "Yes, everything is there, but the handwriting is a little ugly, just practice more."

Ji Jiacan said happily, "Really? That...... Sister Ji, can you lend me your notes? I'm afraid I'm missing something."

Ji Menghan casually handed over his meeting notebook and said, "Take it."

Ji Jiacan took Ji Menghan's notebook and couldn't wait to open it and look at it. Compared with his own handwriting, which looked like a dog, Ji Menghan's notebook was full of beautiful small characters.

Ji Jiacan couldn't help but admire: "Sister, your handwriting is so beautiful."

Ji Menghan smiled and didn't say anything. Ji Jiacan was concentrating on copying Ji Menghan's notes.

Guo Bao took tea and snacks and put them in front of Ji Menghan.
