Terauchi stayed in Peiping for three days, then visited local factories in Shimen, and then returned to Handan with high ambitions.
During the trip to Peking, Isamu Teruchi accomplished half of his two goals.
On the second day of the banquet, Okamura Neiji applied to the Japanese base camp to transfer a part of the "elite soldiers and generals" from the Osaka Division stationed on the front line in Central China to Handan, and they are expected to arrive at the end of September.
In addition, the equipment used in the many factories building production bases in hd will be transported from outside the customs in October if nothing unexpected happens.
The factories that Isamu Terauchi planned to build ranged from steel and coal to large power plants, arsenals that produced weapons and equipment, and ammunition supplies, and included several production lines.
They range from factories and workshops that produce cotton clothes, military uniforms, and toothbrushes.
.......
On September 24th, Cixian, Lucheng, Licheng and other places completed land reform. The common people were allocated fields, utensils, etc., and those who had no surplus food in their families were allocated food.
On the same day, Wang Ying personally rushed to Yanwang Mountain. The army and local authorities made a summary report on the land reform work in the three counties, and reported it to the Taihang Administrative Region, division headquarters, and headquarters.
After sending the telegram, Wang Ying breathed a sigh of relief and slumped in a chair.
"You don't know, during this period, I couldn't eat well or sleep well, for fear that something would go wrong in the land reform work!" Wang Ying said and rubbed his face: "It's just a precaution, but it's still a bit too radical.
The comrades caused trouble, but fortunately the responsible comrades discovered it in time and avoided the problem from getting bigger!"
"On the contrary, the process of land reform in Ci County went very smoothly, and there were no problems!"
Zhou Weihan glared at Wang Ying angrily, and then said, "You don't know how to speak. Do you want something to go wrong in Ci County or not?"
Wang Ying was happy to admit her mistake, and slapped her mouth hard: "Look at my bad mouth, don't mind it!"
Zhou Weihan laughed and didn't care at all. He knew very well who Wang Ying was. Then he poured a glass of water for Wang Ying and continued: "Without investigation, there is no right to speak. Before the land reform in these three counties, although we carried out
An investigation has been conducted, but land reform is still too hasty!”
"Among other things, I only discovered the work problems left over by some previous comrades after visiting the local area. The common people did not dare to talk about such things, and the landlords and wealthy people were even more secretive. Fortunately, before the land reform, internal
If the publicity is in place, the land reform working group's route will not go astray!" Zhou Weihan said with lingering fear.
"Originally I wanted to remind you, but it's not convenient to say this on a telegram. I'm worried it won't be safe if I send someone to inform you!"
"Well, at that time I was just thinking about consolidating the base area as soon as possible, but it was indeed too hasty. This is a lesson!" Wang Ying sighed.
Political Commissar d came to Yamawang Mountain before and mentioned to Zhou Weihan intentionally or unintentionally that some comrades in the regional government had put forward different views on the army's practices. Zhou Weihan always remembered this.
The reason why Wang Ying was not reminded of the land reform issue was not because Zhou Weihan held a grudge, but because he had to be on guard against others. Zhou Weihan was also afraid that someone would use this matter as an excuse to criticize him.
Once someone uses this to make a big fuss, they will show that Zhou Weihan's class position is unstable and deny the previous work line.
Even if the superior leader wants to protect Zhou Weihan, it will be okay for the time being, but this will be a stain on him in the future.
In this era of chaos, someone will take advantage of this matter at any time.
"Hey, I've been here for a long time, why haven't I seen Lao Zhao? What have you been busy with recently?" Wang Ying said with a smile.
When Zhou Weihan heard this, his heart skipped a beat. The Tainan Cadre School had started, and Zhao Gang was in charge of this matter. He was so busy that he felt dizzy.
Wang Ying has always been a workaholic. According to his previous style, he would not come to Yama Mountain easily. When he came, he would just discuss the matter and leave. Today, he still had time to chat here.
The affairs of the Tainan Cadre School cannot be hidden from Wang Ying. Of course, Zhou Weihan did not want to hide it, otherwise he would not have specially trained civil affairs cadres in the Cadre School.
Since you, Lao Wang, are running around with me here, don't blame me. Zhou Weihan is holding something bad in his heart.
"Lao Wang, the land reform is over, but there is still a lot of work in the local area. It is getting dark today, so I won't keep you. Monk, send Director Wang down the mountain!" Zhou Weihan deliberately shouted to the door. .
"Hey, Zhou Weihan, you are causing trouble for me here, right? Let me tell you, I arranged my work before I came here. I have been busy for so many days, so I should give myself a holiday. The food on your Yama Mountain is good. "As for me, I'm going to have a good rest on King of Hell Mountain for a few days!" Wang Ying stroked his glasses and then hit his feet on the table, feeling very uncomfortable.
Zhou Weihan waved his hand and asked the monk to retreat, watching with interest Wang Ying, an honest man, playing rogue.
The independent detachment is getting on the right track day by day. Zhou Weihan usually only grasps the general direction, and has dedicated personnel responsible for specific matters.
On the surface, Zhou Weihan is the most leisurely one.
Zhou Weihan and Wang Ying just stared at each other, and soon Wang Ying fell asleep leaning on the chair.
When Zhou Weihan saw this, he didn't bother him. He picked up his pen and started thinking about the economic construction plan of the Tainan base area.
In the evening, Zhao Gang returned from the cadre school.
As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Gang saw Wang Ying curled up on a chair and immediately said, "What is going on? Why are you still lying here sleeping?"
"I guess he is tired during this period. Don't touch him and let him sleep. Call him while eating!" Zhou Weihan said in a low voice.
When it was time to eat, Li Yunshan also came back. Zhou Weihan stepped forward and shook Wang Ying awake: "Comrade, comrade, don't sleep, it's time to eat!"
Wang Ying rubbed her sleepy eyes, stretched again, and said, "Why did I fall asleep?"
"Old Wang, it seems that you have been working too hard during this period. Your work is important, but your body is the capital of the revolution. Protect your body!" Zhao Gang said with a smile, but he forgot that he was busy working and forgetting to eat and sleep.
"Okay, let's not talk anymore, eat, eat!" Wang Ying saw that the food was already placed on the table, and enthusiastically pulled Zhao Gang to the table.
Zhao Gang was stunned by Wang Ying's performance, and then looked at Zhou Weihan.
"Eat first!"
"Where's Lao Xing? Wait for him!" Wang Ying said.
"No need to wait, Lao Xing is eating with the new recruits at the foot of the mountain!"
The four of them sat down, and Zhou Weihan picked up a steamed bun and handed it to Wang Ying.
Forty million kilograms of grain were seized during the land reform, and nearly 30 million kilograms of grain were later distributed sporadically to the people of Ci County. The remaining more than ten million kilograms of grain were used as war preparations and distributed in batches throughout the base area. Storage.
The independent detachment suddenly became hard-core and had to eat rice and flour every three days.
"It was seized from landlords and wealthy families. After we obtained grain in Licheng and Lucheng counties and distributed it to the people, there were about 24 million kilograms of grain left. If you save some food, it would be enough to feed 10,000 soldiers for three years."
!" Wang Ying said excitedly.
In fact, since the Eighth Route Army crossed the Yellow River eastward to fight against Japan, after the initial base area was stabilized, the life of the Eighth Route Army soldiers was not difficult. Having enough food was not a problem. After all, they obtained a lot of food from the land reform within the base area, plus they raised money from local people every year.
The food supply is completely sufficient.
However, with the gradual growth of the Eighth Route Army, the number of troops expanded too quickly. Coupled with the reduction in grain production in 1941, the people did not have enough food to eat themselves, so how could they supply the troops.
Under such difficult conditions, the Eighth Route Army allocated food to receive refugees and provide relief to the common people, which led to the subsequent difficulties.
Historically, the boss once held a meeting in Shexian County. After some local cadres came, they were so hungry that they had to lie on the kang during the meeting. This shows the difficulties at that time.
While everyone was eating, Wang Ying suddenly put down his chopsticks and complained bitterly to Zhao Gang: "Old Zhao, there is something embarrassing that I need to comment on. Please tell me about the comrade Zhou Weihan promised to rescue from the imp.
We wanted to leave some of them in Tainan, but now we have all gone to Jinan. This is an order from our superiors. We can’t say anything, forget it, but what do the patriotic young people from Xinghuo Society say? Lucheng and Licheng have just completed
Land reform is the time to establish grassroots political power, and there is a shortage of people!"
Wang Ying kept silent about the Tainan Cadre School, but only mentioned the lack of cadres in the regional government.
"Okay, what about the ink? It's indispensable for your district government!" Zhou Weihan said.
"Old Wang, although the rescued comrades have all returned to southern Hebei, the cadre school established now specializes in training civil affairs cadres. It won't take long for them to graduate. In this regard, you still need to send a few more people to be teachers.
Ah!" Zhao Gang explained patiently.
"I know this, and it's easy to talk about teachers, but can we first recruit a group of patriotic young people from the Spark Club and supplement them in the local areas? No experience is not a problem, learn by doing, learn in practice, work in the local area and follow
The troops are different!”
It used to be that the regional government had developed quite a few comrades on its own, but few were literate, and it was too late to rely on literacy classes alone.
Seeing that the base area has expanded again and is in urgent need of manpower, can Wang Ying not be anxious?
Zhao Gang glanced at Zhou Weihan, saw Zhou Weihan nodded, and said: "Well, the cadre school has been open for some time. These young people in the Spark Club have understood the organization's policies before. After this period of study, their thoughts have improved."
Now that I have a clear understanding, I will first select thirty students who are good in all aspects and add them to the place first!"
