A Miao never expected that her unintentional act would cause such a big misunderstanding to Chen Xing. During breakfast, Zhao Xin told her the matter and asked her to explain it to someone later.
"You said you took care of this. Don't give away the things I give you indiscriminately in the future. Ruan Fujing told me before that Mr. Chen is an outsider. If this matter spreads, I will be fine.
I’m afraid she won’t be a good person anymore.”
"Okay, I get it now."
A Miao lowered her head and stirred the porridge bowl with her spoon, just like her messy mood. After a moment of confusion, she suddenly stood up and walked out. Duo Fujian was immersed in the food bowl picking out the fat.
Like this, he waggled his tail hurriedly and followed up with a poop.
Not to mention how A Miao clarified with Chen Jue, Zhao Xin had a leisurely breakfast and returned to the office. The confidential staff officer brought several telegrams from the telecommunications room. Among them were Liu Shengfa's and Deng's.
Fei and Kong Shaoan.
The first thing Zhao Xin read was Liu Sheng's telegram. He said that the five thousand recruits recruited in Ulyasutai and Khovd last year had completed recruit training, and the biggest problem in the southward march to the Tianshan Mountains-the shortage of soldiers had been solved. In addition,
The military platform line from Khovd south to Suzikalen has also been widened, and all eight military stations have been constructed and can be put into use immediately.
He requested that only one regiment and one new battalion be left to garrison in Ulyasoutai, and all the rest of the troops be transferred to Khovd.
Zhao Xin pulled out the map and looked at it for a while, then wrote on the telegram, "Agree to the troop mobilization plan. It is up to you and Fan Tong to decide when to send troops. The battle plan can be reported to the staff."
It has been a year and a half since Liu Sheng and the others captured Khalkha. The original plan to march south to Xinjiang has only begun to take shape today. The two biggest difficulties during this period are soldiers and roads.
The problem of soldiers was mainly solved through the transformation of the "Sulu Ke System". After more than a year of unremitting efforts by Liu Zheng, Liu Sheng, Fan Tong and a large number of armed work teams, coupled with the efforts led by Beihai Trading Company
The mobile warehouse has greatly improved the lives of herdsmen, and the livestock economy in Mobei has also developed to a certain extent.
So when the Beihai Navy began large-scale recruitment in the spring, the young men on the left and right wings of the Saiyinnuoyan tribe, Erut Banner, Mingate Banner, and Dulbert who had first benefited from the Beihai Town policy enthusiastically signed up. Several brothers
There are even cases where fathers and sons, uncles and nephews join the army together.
Of course, considering the national tradition, recruits are basically cavalry troops. They have been dealing with horses since they were young, and their equestrian skills are very good. After three or four months of short-term military training, they can master the movements of shooting, fighting, charging, etc. on horseback.
.This made the cavalry commander Samusu extremely happy. Now he has become the first brigade commander of the Northern Navy, and the number of cavalry under his command has reached 6,000.
The biggest hurdle in recruit training is the language barrier. The North Navy never compromises on mastering Mandarin. Whether it is military regulations or various passwords, they must be able to express themselves fluently in Mandarin to pass. The purpose of this is to break the language barrier.
, after these people retire from the army, they will be the main force in spreading the Beihai town decree in Khalkha.
In Zhao Xin's view, allowing all ethnic groups to communicate in language without barriers is the cultural foundation for building a unified country. This can also avoid the gap between the government and the people, the separation of ethnic groups and the weak concept of the country caused by language barriers.
Then there is the problem of roads. Although the Manchu and Qing Dynasties established six station lines in Khalkha, the road conditions are not suitable for the management method of Beihai Town at all. For example, the total length from Kulun to Ulyasutai is 3,475 miles, even if the cavalry ignores
It takes more than forty days for a full-speed attack with full power to complete a one-way trip. Therefore, the Northern Navy currently has at least one regiment of troops deployed in Culun, Serwusutai, Ulyasutai and Khovd in case of emergency in the surrounding areas.
Support.
Since the Qing Dynasty firmly controlled the Xinjiang region, the road maintenance at the Khovd South Line station has become increasingly neglected, forcing Fan Tong to send troops to repair it, especially in the Altai Mountains and Baishan Mountain in the south, and some mountain passes.
The pass still needs to be widened using a large amount of explosives. Armored vehicles are easy to say, but the key is that the four-wheeled carriages of the logistics troops can pass smoothly.
The same is true on Liu Zheng's side. The Kulun Northern Line is fine, but the mountain passes on the Southern Line were fatal in previous battles. It's easy to do it with people, horses, and camels, but there is definitely no chance of using a big car.
Basically, until the Northern Navy captures Dihua Prefecture and Ili, Zhao Xin must continue to play the role of captain of the transportation brigade.
Next was Deng Fei. His telegram was relatively simple. In addition to mentioning the current progress of the troops going south, he also asked for a solution to the Qing troops entrenched in the six towns in the north of Li Dynasty. Zhao Xin directly approved the message.
"Agree", no unnecessary words were said.
Deng Fei is still very stable. Unlike Liu Sheng who is bold and careful, he does things step by step and is neither hasty nor impatient.
After Jilin Ula was captured, he was not in a hurry to enter Jilin City. He just moved the headquarters from Ninggu Pagoda to the west bank of the Lafa River. Don't look at the wide Songhua River right next to Jilin City, because the city is almost entirely covered with wood.
It is very easy to cause a fire in the whole city if the buildings are not constructed. Moreover, Jilin City has just been captured. Not to mention the complex population within the city, there are still a large number of Qing prisoners who have not completed screening in the prison camp outside the city. There are many people with evil intentions!
In addition, as the troops continued to move south, the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of Na Qitai stationed in the Li Dynasty became more and more conspicuous; because of their presence, the entire front line of the Northern Navy in the northeast became higher in the east and lower in the west.
.
Deng Fei's plan was to use four battalions in mid-August or early September to launch a surprise attack from Li Fengpo in the east to Xunzhen City in the west to clear the Qing army's strongholds on the other side of the Tumen River, and then the troops quickly took up their positions.
The boat sailed up the river and headed straight for Huining City and Maoshan City, catching Na Qitai and Li Chao off guard.
Now is the time to solve the problems of the six towns in the north. It is also time to get back the North Hamgyong Province stolen by the Lee Dynasty. Once the Musan magnetite with reserves of 1.5 billion tons is collected, the problem of insufficient raw materials of the Khabarovsk Steel Plant will be solved.
can be completely solved.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Although there are many gold mines in Northeast Asia, the iron ore resources are not good. The iron ore mines that have been discovered in later generations are either in Kamchatka and the Kuril Islands, or
It is in the alpine South Yakutia region. Under the current conditions of Beihai Town, mining is very difficult and extremely costly. Today, the main source of iron ore in Beihai Town comes from the northwest of Suchuna Village of Hezhe, Jinqili River.
An iron mine 50 kilometers away is currently being excavated by the Russian army and some Eight Banners prisoners of war, and transported to Khabarovsk via waterways and railways.
Finally, there is Kong Shaoan’s telegram. Unlike Liu Sheng and Deng Fei, the content of Kong Shaoan’s telegram is like a work summary. It mentions both the military and the land reform in the four counties of Jiaodong. It is filled with thousands of words and makes Zhao Xinnao read it.
Rendu hurts.
In terms of military operations, as of yesterday, the attack force led by Lu Shoushan has captured three cities, Dengzhou Prefecture, Huang County and Laiyang, and is currently advancing towards Zhaoyuan. He plans to seize Laizhou Prefecture and Jimo through this operation.
At the same time, a north-south pincer attack was formed against the Qing army and Tuanlian troops in Pingdu Prefecture, forcing them to retreat to the Changyi, Gaomi and Jiaozhou lines.
However, there was a problem with this battle. According to the telegram sent by Lu Shoushan from the front line, the Qing army's green camp still couldn't help but fight and collapsed at the first touch; and Liu Yong had the group practice in the name of "supporting the Qing and destroying Zhao", and their fighting will was
The strength was beyond his expectation.
This group of guys were all made up of local young men. Because their weapons were too poor, the Beihai navy ran away as soon as they fired. However, when the guns stopped, they stuck together again, using various homemade cannons, blunderbuss, and other weapons.
People raise their hands to say hello.
You say use heavy weapons to fight, because too many people will be killed, which will be detrimental to later management. In addition, more than half of the soldiers in the army are natives of Jiaodong, and they cannot bear to be ruthless in the first place. But if you say not to fight, these guys will follow
It's like dog-skin plaster, and it's very annoying.
In addition, these guys will also secretly attack the Northern Navy soldiers and small transport teams who are responsible for delivering letters. After succeeding, the soldiers will be stripped naked from top to bottom, leaving nothing behind, and their bodies will be left in the wilderness.
.As a result, Lu Shoushan had to dispatch two companies to go deep into the mountainous areas in southern Huang County to "suppress bandits."
When he saw the four words "Support the Qing and destroy Zhao", Zhao Xin couldn't hold back a mouthful of water and almost spat it out. He thought Liu Yong was quite capable, but he actually used all the tricks of the Boxer Rebellion in later generations! I just don't know if he will.
It will arouse the power of folk religions.
However, he thought about it and felt that Liu Yong might not do this. He should rely on the power of the landlords and gentry; especially with the promulgation of the peasant association and the land reform decree, it is estimated that more than 80% of the landlords will stand against Beihai Town.
Regarding the ongoing land reform, Kong Shaoan told Zhao Xin that the land in the four counties of Jiaodong is too barren and there is very little land that meets the standards of large grain land. Not only states and counties, but even within a county will have different algorithms.
At present, the cultivated land area in the four counties of Jiaodong is a little more than 2.7 million acres. It seems like a lot, but in fact, only 750,000 acres meet the standards of large grain land, and the rest are the worst and inferior land.
The "big grain land" he refers to here is actually the tax standard mu, which is the basic land unit for calculating the revenue cost of a single mu.
Taking Rongcheng County as an example, the cultivated land is highly saline and alkaline, so even the harvest from the best land is not good. Two acres of land can be converted into one acre of large grain land. Even if 20 acres of land are allocated to someone, as long as it is low-grade land,
Calculating 5 acres to one acre, it is actually only four acres. If you only plant sorghum and millet, and the output in three seasons over two years is deducted from rent, seeds, taxes and other necessities of life, the rations will still be insufficient. Furthermore, 20 acres of land will be cultivated.
The cost and labor required for the land are definitely beyond what a family of six can afford.
Therefore, Kong Shaoan's idea is to adopt the approach of another time and space, to carry out soybean and peanut planting, and engage in specialty planting. At the same time, he vigorously supports the fishery, implements mutual assistance between fishermen and farmers, and shares dividends. The Military Control Commission only levies taxes on the sale of catches.
The specific method is to set up a fishery cooperative under the leadership of the farmers' association, and the credit department can provide it with a loan to purchase a boat, or rent it. Each farmer will use his labor as a shareholder, and a group of 4 to 5 fishermen will sign a contract endorsed by the farmers' association.
Carry out joint repairs on boats and tools.
When fishing at sea, the method of "everyone dumps his bag" is adopted. The fish caught in the net belongs to whoever, and the fish caught in his bag will be sold or processed by him. When it comes to dividends, two methods can be adopted, one is
One is to divide the dividends based on the income from the sea, and the income from the land belongs to each person; the other is that each person at sea is counted as one share, and the income from the land is counted as three shares.
Seeing this, Zhao Xin couldn't help but applaud. Kong Shaoan seemed to have put a lot of thought into it. Putting him in Jiaodong was the right move!
At the end of the telegram, in addition to mentioning the anonymous postings that began to appear during the Hungry Ghost Festival, Kong Shaoan also said one thing, that is, the Public Security Police Department recently discovered a lot of newly released fake copper coins on the market in the four counties of Jiaodong.
There is also sand money in hammered money. This made Zhao Xin immediately alert.
In other matters, Zhao Xin is like a bottle that is not half full, but when it comes to economic and monetary issues, there are really not many people in Beihai Town who know more than him.
The so-called "hammer flat money" is to use a hammer to hammer two Jingdun coins that are used as one coin to make them larger, and then add dozens of coins into each string of coins. It cannot be found without careful inspection. As for the
"Sand money", also known as sand money, is made of copper and lead, but its copper content is much less than that of made money, and its appearance is lighter and smaller.
In addition, there are other "cutting money" and "lead money". For every penny of official money cut from the edge money, the copper material obtained can be used to make 2~3 small coins, and the cut money can still be worth one penny of large coins.
Circulation. There are many lead coins in the south. The Fujian and Guangdong areas have always had the technology to make lead coins. The lead coins used in Bacheng Plantation originated from this. Because the price of lead is only one-fifth of the price of copper, counterfeiters will follow
Bile alum, turmeric water, wheat bran and other substances are also used to cast and dye it yellow to prevent others from seeing through it when mixed with it.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although Beihai Town occupied the four counties of Jiaodong, it could not be completely isolated from the Manchu and Qing Dynasties in the monetary field. A large amount of copper coins and silver were still circulating among the people, parallel to Beihai silver coins and copper coins.
For example, for people like Guo Yu and Cao Guifu, although their salaries were in silver dollars, they would still change them into copper coins for daily consumption.
And not only in Jiaodong, there are also a large number of copper coin transactions in Anping Port on Jeju Island.
Don’t think that private money is only cast by unscrupulous businessmen. Baoquan bureaus under the Ministry of Revenue also do it secretly. Moreover, Baoquan bureau has sufficient supply of copper materials, sophisticated equipment, and skilled craftsmen, which makes private castings by official bureaus often occur in huge quantities.
However, after a large number of private money entered circulation, it quickly corrupted the money law, and the quality of money production was poor, making it more difficult to single out private money when it was mixed and used.
Once private money overflows, it will bring great harm to the rule of Beihai Town. For example, the current price ratio of silver coins in Shandong is one tael of silver to 1,500~1,600 yuan, while in Beihai Town, five silver coins are exchanged for one tael of silver, which means 300~
320 Wenqian is exchanged for one Beihai dollar.
There is definitely no chance for profiteers to counterfeit Beihai silver dollars, but they can swindle Beihai silver dollars by privately minting copper coins, and then swindle silver. Once private money floods, the price of Beihai silver dollars or silver ingots will soar, and prices will rise accordingly.
Especially grain. You must know that the insufficient grain in the four counties of Jiaodong in the past two years has been shipped from Beihai Town by boat, and its market sales price is also based on the Beihai silver dollar as the anchor unit.
Because the content of this part of the telegram was unclear, Zhao Xin asked confidential staff to send telegrams to Jiaodong and Anping Port, asking the two places to find out the amount of counterfeit money found.
Zhao Xin was busy here, and when it was time to eat at noon, A Miao came back happily. Besides Duofu, there was also a big black leather box with her.
"look!"
"Huh? Why did she return it to you?"
"Sister Chen said that the things are too expensive and she can't afford them."
"Oh, what else did she say?"
Upon hearing this, A Miao first covered her mouth and laughed softly, her face turned red, and finally she collapsed on the sofa and was so happy. Zhao Xin looked confused and asked if he had anything funny to say so that I could listen too.
"She thought you were going to marry her! She was so scared all night! Hahahahaha~~"
