When Li Qingming saw Xia Yuan coming and letting the Red Army soldiers train on their own, Li Qingming quickly ran over and said, "Platoon leader, I have something to ask you."
Xia Yuan asked: "What's the matter?"
Li Qingming said: "Platoon leader, it's like this. Regarding the military uniforms, I have negotiated with the Peasants' Association, and everyone's opinions are very unified. Our Red Army has done a lot for the people, and the people always feel that they are indebted to us.
So when it came to charging for military uniforms, I refused to give in no matter what. I insisted on making two sets of military uniforms for each household without paying for it. I told my father about this matter, and my father and my mother even criticized me.
"
He smiled bitterly and said: "My father and my mother have told me that if we mention this matter again, we will treat it as if I don't exist as a son."
With a smile on his face, Xia Yuan patted Li Qingming on the shoulder and said, "What does this mean? It shows that the people have begun to accept our Red Army. This is a good thing."
He smiled and said: "We can't let everyone make clothes for us for nothing. In this way, you can find a few people and go to the county town to buy some beautiful cloth. Buy more and we will share it with everyone. Since everyone wants to give it to us,
To make clothes, we can’t let everyone get out of the cloth. We’ll wrap it up and buy some more cloth to give to everyone as gifts.”
Xia Yuan looked at the two men and said: "This will not harm everyone's interests, and our Red Army will not take any needle from the masses."
Li Qingming's eyes lit up and he nodded: "Hey, this is a good idea, platoon leader, I'll let someone go right now."
"By the way, what about calves and lambs?"
Seeing that Li Qingming was about to leave in a hurry, Xia Yuan pulled him back and quickly asked about the livestock.
"Platoon leader, I asked Xiao Wu to go to the next village to see if there are any lambs and calves. The old scalpers are in trouble. Many of the old scalpers are in the hands of the landlords. It is not easy to buy them. The landlords can
He won't sell it if he makes money from this old scalper," Li Qingming said.
Xia Yuan asked with some confusion: "Can landlords and old wealth still make money with old scalpers?"
Li Qingming said: "Platoon leader, you don't know something. This old scalper is a good expert at plowing the land. He can rent the old scalper to the villagers and let the old scalper help him cultivate the land, and he can earn the old scalper's rent."
"If the old scalper is raised by the landlord, then such a rental relationship is actually more compliant." Xia Yuan rubbed his chin and said: "In this way, let's ignore the old scalper's matter and settle the lamb and calf matters first.
Already."
"good!"
Li Qingming turned around and left, starting to handle the matter.
After staring at Li Qingming's back for a while, until he disappeared, Xia Yuan turned around and said: "Dasha, you see that Brother Qingming is constantly growing. He will definitely become a qualified Red Army cadre in the future! In the future, you
You have to work harder, it’s not that easy to be a machine gunner. When you become a qualified machine gunner, I will get you a better machine gun."
"Why!"
Sun Dasha said with a somewhat naive smile.
Watching the development of Nianping Village gradually getting on the right track, Xia Yuan showed a happy smile on his face. This was a process from scratch. Watching Nianping Village, which was ruled by landlords, develop into what he wanted in his heart,
This feeling is indescribable.
A few days later.
In the landlord's compound, the development of the Red Army basically took shape. The platoon level has developed into the company level. Xia Yuan was also promoted from a platoon commander to a company commander and political commissar. Li Qingming became deputy company commander and deputy political commissar, and Sun Dasha became
For Xia Yuan's guards, the original four squads were organized into three platoons, a cooking squad, and a purchasing squad, specifically responsible for purchasing supplies needed by the Red Army.
Li Qingming found Xia Yuan and said, "Company Commander, the cloth purchased from the county has been handed over to the farmers' association, which will distribute it to each household. In addition, the first batch of military uniforms are basically ready. I will take people to pick them up tomorrow, oh yes.
As the company commander, if you let the quilt factory be established by the farmers' association, in addition to providing support to our Red Army, the excess quilts and cotton clothes can also be sold in the county town, killing two birds with one stone!"
Li Qingming was very happy. Only a short time had passed before Nianping Village had undergone earth-shaking changes.
Nianping Village, which is managed by the Peasants' Association and supervised by the Red Army, presents a prosperous scene. The land is distributed to the farmers, and everyone's enthusiasm for farming is getting higher and higher. During the period when the land was first distributed, everyone in Nianping Village usually
Just staying in the field and looking at the land that belongs to you is like a dream.
The quilt factory established in the past two days has found a place to work for all the women in the village. Xia Yuan stipulated that for every piece of clothing they make, they can take part of the profit from the clothes they make as wages.
The greater the quantity, the more they earn, and the women's enthusiasm for production also increases a lot. In the future, the quilt factory will definitely become an important industry in Nianping Village.
"Company commander, the lambs and calves can also be delivered tomorrow. Then I will take people to trade."
Lambs and calves are also an important part of Xia Yuan's plan to develop animal husbandry in Nianping Village. It doesn't matter how much money is spent. The key is that the animal husbandry must be developed so that it can solve a large number of financial problems for the Red Army in the future.
"Okay, when the time comes, you can go with a platoon of soldiers and save yourself the trouble." Xia Yuan thought for a while and said, "To be on the safe side, let the second squad follow you from a distance."
Li Qingmin asked: "Company commander, is it necessary to be so cautious?"
Xia Yuan said: "We have no choice but to be so cautious. This amount of money is not a small amount. When trading with them, we need to be prepared for mistakes. If nothing happens, everyone will be happy. Once an accident occurs, the soldier we bring will be a very good one."
Good protection.”
He originally planned to handle this matter, but considering that there are still many things to do here, especially the decision-making on reform, during this period of time, farmers' association meetings have been held continuously, and he is a little tired physically and mentally.
Xia Yuan truly felt how difficult it was to establish a base. It was not as simple as just pulling a team up the mountain, cutting down trees, building a house, and maintaining daily training.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Soldiers have to live and eat, but they cannot always rely on the help of the masses. The team must also have its own source of income. Fighting local tyrants and landlords is certainly a way, not only can
Obtaining enough silver coins can also expand the territory of the base area.
But now the development of Nianping Village has just started. Expanding the area rashly will inevitably attract the attention of the county boss.
There are Red Army activities in Zhougui. Even before Xia Yuan crossed over, he had already joined the Red Army. However, because the Red Army at this period was the target of the Chiang Group's encirclement and suppression, a little red flame just started to rise. Soon,
It was wiped out by the Chiang Group. The Red Army revolutionary team that he originally joined was no more than a regiment. Most of it was composed of farmers. It was led by one or two members of our party to resist the oppression of the landlords. The team had just been formed, but there was a serious lack of weapons and equipment. The fighting of the soldiers
The quality is uneven, and the road is completely paved with blood.
But after the uprising, only six villages were liberated, and they were encircled and suppressed by the White Army. Nearly a thousand people in one regiment suffered heavy casualties. They fled in a rout and were scattered. The predecessors followed the revolutionary, sleeping in the wilderness and eating.
Living with wild vegetables and drinking dew, life was hard, but that period was when the predecessor's faith was the strongest.
He could personally experience that when recalling this memory, the blood all over his body was boiling and warm. It was these revolutionaries who had been oppressed by landlords since childhood, their fathers were beaten to death by landlords, and their mothers went crazy.
The predecessor brought hope.
It was also during that time that my predecessors relied on their unwavering faith to follow the footsteps of the revolutionaries and successfully joined our party. However, on the second day after joining the party, their traces were planted by the White Army.
The informants in the countryside saw that in an instant, a huge number of White troops surrounded them.
Xia Yuan's memory still retains the scene of the true revolutionary before his death, "Don't let the flame of revolution go out."
The person who rescued the original body later died. In addition, the White Army's encirclement and suppression caused the remaining members of the group to be scattered. The former person ran back alone. His family was destroyed, and the revolutionary team was defeated. After returning,
He was beaten and kicked by the gangsters under the landlord, and his body became crazy. All his belongings were gone, leaving only tattered clothes.
The time he traveled through was more than a year after that incident, and the spark here had long been extinguished. His arrival and the tasks arranged by the system can be regarded as inheriting the will of his predecessors.
"The red flame will not go out, it will only burn brighter and brighter!"
Throwing away the bad memories in his mind, Xia Yuan's eyes became firm and unshakable. Only when he traveled back to his original body could he personally feel the unwavering faith and tenacious will, and also be able to understand
Why are such a group of people not afraid of sacrifice?
The Red Army is composed of thousands of poor people who suffered similar experiences to their predecessors.
The memory in his mind constantly warned Xia Yuan that the fruits of victory are at the end of this road. It depends on how you go and how you pick them. Every different road is covered with the blood of revolutionaries, which is dazzling.
Blood is a warning to those who come after you.
The previous revolutionary teams urgently needed to be strengthened and enriched, so that they chose the more radical liberation movement. A large number of landlords were destroyed by them, which quickly attracted the attention of the county boss. During that period, the White Army was not interested in such revolutionary teams.
Naturally, there was zero tolerance, and they were quickly suppressed. Wrong strategies led to the team quickly disappearing into the long river of history, and there were many such teams.
Xia Yuan kept the memory in his heart and thought carefully about whether to venture to the Soviet area or stay in the local area to establish a base. He had the bloody experience of his original life as a reminder. Steady development of the base step by step was the most important decision.
It is necessary for farmers' associations to meet to brainstorm ideas. Only the masses know what they really need.
Safety is the top priority, and the fruits cannot be allowed to fall into the hands of landlords and bullies again.
"In response to the opinions raised by everyone, my idea is to establish a militia group and make spears as weapons. In addition, I will send several well-trained Red Army soldiers as instructors to train the militia group. The militia group belongs to
The farmers' association is an important part, and its development is also crucial. I hope everyone can take it seriously, train and farm both, and a happy life must be in your own hands."
Xia Yuan's proposal was unanimously approved by everyone.
The establishment of the militia group was confirmed at this meeting. After all development in Nianping Village becomes less than normal, the peasant association will expand to the outside world, and then the Red Army will begin to dispatch large landowners to divide the land.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
On the second day, Li Qingming confirmed the transaction of several lambs and calves with the landlord in Laohe Township. The transaction location was in Laohe Township. Li Qingming followed Xia Yuan's instructions and sent platoons and squads of soldiers to follow him.
The soldiers followed from a distance, responsible for ensuring the safety of a group of soldiers.
After several days of training, the Red Army soldiers seemed to have changed their appearance, and their whole spirit and spirit had undergone earth-shaking changes. They were waiting for the arrival of military uniforms and put on military uniforms.
In these troubled times, it is necessary to carry guns and ammunition. Li Qingming disguised himself as a landlord this time, wearing the clothes that the landlord of Nianping Village once wore, and several Red Army soldiers disguised themselves as his subordinates.
"The company commander puts on the clothes of a landlord and looks like a wealthy landlord."
When heading to Laohe Village, the Red Army soldiers made a joke about Li Qingming. The Red Army advocated the equality of officers and soldiers, so in daily life, Xia Yuan and others never showed official airs and fought with the soldiers.
As close as brothers.
"I am a wealthy landlord, so who are you? You are just ruffians."
"Hahaha."
"Okay, let's be serious. This is our first time to go out on a mission. The transaction targets are the landlords in Laohe Village. These landlords are not good people. They are likely to take advantage of others. In order to ensure this transaction
If it can proceed smoothly, our army also dispatched two squads of soldiers to ensure that this transaction can proceed safely and reliably."
Li Qingming stopped the smile on his face. In terms of life and work, everyone was still more careful in distinguishing between life and work. Several soldiers stopped smiling and their expressions became wary.
In these troubled times, landlords and wealthy men are running rampant in the countryside, and bandits are stationed in the mountains. They often come down to bully men and women. This time they went to perform a mission, and they carried one or two hundred oceans with them. It was a big fortune, so they must be careful.
.
What Li Qingming was thinking: "In addition to trading lambs and calves, we also need to tentatively try to trade old scalpers. The transaction itself is a back-and-forth between you and me. Testing whether the other party will let go is the key point. In addition, there are other tasks arranged."
Xia Yuan's explanation came to his mind. This trip was not just about trading, but also a tentative investigation of the landowners in Laohe Village, paving the way for the Red Army and the Peasants' Association to enter Laohe Village in the future.
Regarding this mission, Li Qingming knew that it was a major challenge for him, and it was up to him whether he could complete it and earn high recognition from the company commander.
