"I don't agree with the plan to adjust personnel." He Zudao said calmly to Chai Qingguo.

If someone else said that, Chai Qingguo might feel that that person was deliberately against him, but it's meaningless to say that, Chai Qingguo didn't even have this idea.

"Why?" Chai Qingguo asked.

"Because this selection method selects fighters you think are good at fighting, not fighters who can actually fight. So I can't agree."

"Then political commissar He, what do you mean?" Chai Qingguo couldn't figure out He Sudao's thoughts.

"My idea is very simple. I would like to suggest to Brigadier Chen that you, Qingguo, be the commander of the second regiment." When He Zudao said this, his attitude was calm.Chai Qingguo just wondered if he heard it wrong.Sure enough, He Zudao went on to say: "I will apply to be the Political Commissar of the Second Regiment. If there is any difference between the Second Regiment and the First Regiment, it is that the Second Regiment was established for a short period of time and the working hours are short. If we weaken the Second Regiment now, it will still It’s better to just lay off the second regiment. Since there is no plan to lay off the second regiment, now we need to improve the quality and ability of the second regiment as soon as possible.”

"A war is coming soon?" Chai Qingguo didn't understand He Zu's detour.Isn't it good to directly form a strong field force?It will take half a year for the second regiment to finish training.In the past six months, the infrastructure work of the Second Regiment was equally heavy.Fighting wars and farming at the same time, even a man of iron might not be able to withstand it.

He Zudao also didn't understand Chai Qingguo's thoughts. He asked strangely, "Deputy head Chai, can't the second regiment do it by beating up some bandits?"

"It's definitely not a problem to fight bandits, but we will fight the imperial army in the future. The new army is not so easy to fight." Chai Qingguo replied.

He Zudao's answer was straightforward, "The Anhui New Army is not the Beiyang New Army, and our insurance regiment is not the Boxer Regiment. What's the matter?"

Chai Qingguo wanted to say something, but couldn't say it.What He Zudao said is correct, the Anhui New Army is no match for the Beiyang New Army, and the Boxers are absolutely no match for the Insurance Group.However, Chai Qingguo always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell the problem.It can only look like a stick in the throat.

He Zudao didn't mean to embarrass Chai Qingguo. Seeing Chai Qingguo blushing and speechless, He Zudao, as a political commissar, felt the need to come out and explain something clearly. "Deputy head Chai, we have to stand firm in Fengtai County. What is the most important thing? Let the people know and support our People's Party as the leader of Fengtai County. It stands to reason that as long as we preside over the division of Fengtai County , we can get the support of the people. But we have to wait for this wave of food to be planted before we can build water conservancy facilities on a large scale. So what can we rely on to maintain the current situation?"

Chai Qingguo did not study the revolutionary theory of the People's Party too deeply. In his understanding, two things were repeatedly emphasized at the People's Party meeting, "divide the land and build water conservancy." For such a policy, Chai Qingguo really didn't think much of it Feel more.Like ordinary people, Chai Qingguo thinks these policies have lasted too long.As for the disaster relief policy that the People's Party is currently implementing, Chai Qingguo believes that it is also a thankless act.

Using the food that I have worked so hard to transport to the people can only ensure that the people will not starve to death.And the common people are not full, so naturally they want to scold their mothers.After Chen Ke came down to hold the battle in person, especially after the Soldiers Committee was in operation, there were fewer complaints, but all these complaints were made public.Dividing land and building water conservancy projects has completely become a kind of commitment.

As a member of the rivers and lakes, Chai Qingguo knew the meaning of the promise.Also know the importance of commitment.Brothers in the rivers and lakes would never dare to promise such a big event of land division.This is a matter of human life, the brothers in the rivers and lakes can definitely push it away, even if they really promised, they will never really fulfill it afterwards.

But the People's Party not only dares to make promises, but also dares to make promises to tens of thousands of people.Chai Qingguo himself didn't believe this kind of thing, and he also knew that the tens of thousands of people in Fengtai County didn't believe it either.If it is not eating and drinking the People's Party now, I am afraid that the sky will be turned upside down long ago.

"Political Commissar He, let's not talk about these nonsense. It is true to kill those bastards who are colluding inside and outside. Kill at least a few, and the people will know how powerful they are. Otherwise, they really don't know that Lord Ma has three eyes. In the past, Chai Qingguo's words would have been fierce and murderous.Now, Chai Qingguo's words are really bland.It's not that he's lost interest in killing people.Eliminating bandits, cutting off their heads and hanging them on flagpoles as a public display was originally a very effective means of establishing prestige.The problem is that the People's Party has proposed a policy of dividing land. In comparison, the effect of killing people and establishing power is not enough to save the loss of breaking promises.

He Zudao has never been in the Jianghu, so he really doesn't understand the thoughts of the heroes of the Jianghu, but he can definitely sense Chai Qingguo's feeling of disobedience, "Deputy head Chai, they are all revolutionary comrades, can you tell the truth. What is your reason for doing this?"

Chai Qingguo is much older than He Zudao, and has experienced more things. Hearing what He Zudao said, he felt that He Zudao was too immature.But after all, it is a grasshopper on a rope. If He Zudao doesn't make it clear now, if He Zudao gets stuck, Chai Qingguo's plan will not be carried out at all.Gritting his teeth, Chai Qingguo spoke his mind.

"Political Commissar He, do you really think that land distribution can be accomplished?"

"Of course."

Chai Qingguo was no longer angry about He Zudao's insistence. He smiled and said, "Then don't think about it. How many things can be caused when the land is divided? Now, the common people don't accept our favor. Don't you think about how many lawsuits there will be at that time?"

Chai Qingguo didn't understand what he was thinking. He asked strangely: "When the land is divided, the common people will sue us. Doesn't that prove that the common people think that we are capable of handling lawsuits? Isn't our insurance group just like Phoenix? Is there someone who is in charge of the house? What’s wrong with this, could it be that the common people filed a lawsuit against the government office of the Qing Dynasty?”

"Even if you are a yamen, you still have to have your own iron club?" Chai Qingguo felt that he was so naive and outrageous.

He Zudao thinks that Chai Qingguo's awareness is too low, "We are the people's army, the soldiers of the people, who are hardcore? Now that the people don't believe us, we have to work to make the people believe in us. Now we form a bunch of thugs, then What is the difference between us and Zhang Youliang?"

This statement can be regarded as upright, and Chai Qingguo couldn't refute it at all, but he was not convinced at all. "I can't tell you the truth, but if you say that people don't want to get more for themselves, I don't believe in this evil. You say that Wen Qing doesn't want to get it for yourself, I believe it. You political commissar doesn't want to get it for yourself, I believe it. You said that the common people don’t want to make more money for themselves, even if you kill them, I wouldn’t believe it.”

After hearing Chai Qingguo's words, He Zudao already understood Chai Qingguo's true thoughts, "No one wants the handle of the knife to fall into the hands of others. That's right. If you give the handle of the knife to others, it's called Tai Ah holding it upside down, giving someone a handle... ..."

Chai Qingguo interrupted He Zudao angrily, "I haven't read a book, so don't tell me such polite words."

He Zudao also became a little angry, and his expression became serious, "Deputy Head Chai, how hard is the work of the soldiers in our insurance regiment now? You know it. If the people really don't believe us, and if they don't believe us in the future Really divide the land, let everyone have water to irrigate the land, no future hope, why do the soldiers work so hard? Deputy head Chai, you have a bunch of thugs now, how dare you use these thugs to scare the people? Try it. The insurance group will be disbanded immediately. If you don’t use these thugs and use these so-called hard rods to scare the people, you might as well not form it. Whether you can fight or not, you will know if you go out and fight. Train well and do it well before the war Prepare, it's better than anything."

Speaking of theory, Chai Qingguo is really not a worthy opponent, but Chai Qingguo doesn't really believe in the attitude of the people. This is the deep impression left on Chai Qingguo during the Boxing Movement.Although Chai Qingguo once thought that Chen Ke's people's revolution was "very good", he discovered in practice that the people's revolution is actually because "officials" like himself have to make so much contribution to the people. Nothing.Chai Qingguo even felt that Chen Ke was fooling around when he was in Beijing.

The meeting broke up unhappy. To Chai Qingguo's surprise, He Zudao actually found Chen Ke and asked himself to be the political commissar of the Second Regiment, and suggested that Chai Qingguo be the head of the Second Regiment.Of course, Chen Ke agreed with He Zudao as the political commissar of the Second Regiment, but he did not agree with Chai Qingguo's appointment.But now is the stage for comrades to let go of their work after all. With such a low reputation, Chai Qingguo may not dare to openly confront him now.

The Military Commission held a meeting, and the result of the discussion was to appoint He Zudao as the political commissar of the Second Regiment, and Chai Qingguo as the acting head of the Second Regiment.The first task that Chai Qingguo, the head of the delegation, received was to clear up the law and order and quell banditry.

He Zudao is worthy of being Chen Ke's student. After becoming the political commissar of the Second Regiment, He Zudao immediately began to participate in the soldiers' life meeting of the Second Regiment. On his first day in office, he participated in the soldiers' life meeting of the First Battalion and the First Company and put forward the task straightforwardly, "Comrade Ladies and gentlemen, there have been more and more incidents of theft targeting the insurance regiment's grain depot recently. The organization has made a decision to clean up the law and order. In addition to daily work, the comrades in the army have to be responsible for the security work recently. Get rid of these bandits."

Chai Qingguo knew that he couldn't do political work, so he simply followed He Zudao to attend the meeting.After hearing what He Zudao said, Chai Qingguo felt a pain in the ass.The gang of thieves made it clear that people from several other "reclamation brigades" did it. To put it bluntly, the "land reclamation brigade" is a refugee camp, and the insurance group operates through food distribution in the wasteland reclamation brigade.Now the main work is to build the core force of the 359th Brigade and First Regiment.He Zudao wants to develop the work of the second regiment, which in itself is risking his life.

The proportion of new recruits in the Second Regiment was as high as 95%. Although the discipline was acceptable, Chai Qingguo firmly believed that these soldiers who had only been in the army for less than a month must support the locals more than the People's Party.To be honest, Chai Qingguo was really surprised that the Second Regiment could maintain discipline and persist in the construction of water conservancy.If it were the Boxer brothers, they would have risen and rebelled several times.

Sure enough, as Chai Qingguo thought, there was not much enthusiasm in the expressions of the soldiers.Surprised, but not surprised.

"These people don't necessarily starve to death when they come to steal things. But every time they come to steal things, they will damage a lot of crops. How much more food will be produced after these crops grow? I don't know if we The people of Fengtai County, how did you deal with this kind of people when they were caught before, so I want to ask you all."

The soldiers were speechless at first, but they didn't know who sighed first.

"Everyone has something to say, what's your opinion on this matter, do you say everything?" He Zudao asked.

Still no one speaks.

"I know that everyone is from the village, and everyone feels that they can't save face. But have you ever thought about it, the grain in this grain bank is for the people to eat. Everyone is so hungry now, how can they stand it again? So tossing? They have already wasted so much food. How much food has been wasted now, and how much food everyone will eat in winter. I won’t talk about it if it’s a good year, but now it’s a bad year. We can’t let them continue to harm everyone like this. "

The soldiers still refused to speak.

He Zudao was not discouraged, "Comrades, everyone knows the rules of our insurance group, so speak boldly if you have anything to say. We don't settle accounts after the fall."

After a while, a soldier said: "Commissioner He, if we catch someone, what are we going to do with it?"

"We are not going to deal with these people now, we are going to keep the food." He Zudao gave an answer that was not an answer.

The atmosphere at the venue was quite heavy, and finally a soldier who looked to be in his 40s said, "Commissioner He, let alone a year of disaster, it is a year of prosperity. If someone wastes food like this, he will be beaten severely if he is caught. In a disaster year , it’s not uncommon to be killed.” After speaking, the soldier sighed.

"I know that everyone doesn't want to kill people, at least it's life. It's not easy to survive the flood and survive. It's always inappropriate to be beaten to death like this. Now we can't let them go on like this. I'm talking about the head, catch them For these people, it is our goal to prevent them from wasting food. Their life and death are in everyone's hands. I am not saying that these people have to die. We will kill them after we catch them. If everyone wants them to die, Then they have to die. Otherwise, arrest them to work and make up for the food they ruined. Do you think this is okay?"

"Really?" The soldiers were very skeptical of such a reasonable approach.

"Commissioner He, didn't they beheaded after catching them? Or beat them half to death, and then put them up for public display?"

The soldiers knew that killing people in this kind of calamity year was a common thing. This was also the reason why many thieves were mixed among the refugees, but they dared not do anything wrong.During the flood, the common people were basically destitute and had little property.But seeing that life has calmed down after the flood, this group of people is eager to move.

"Comrades, I would like to ask everyone, this first wave of harvest is just a matter of one or two months. What are your plans?"

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers looked at me and looked at you, and didn't know what to say.The proportion of new recruits in the second regiment is very large, and 19 out of twenty people must be recruits.A regiment had the consciousness of an old army at any rate, participated in disaster relief, and participated in the battle against Yue Zhangji.Everyone feels that they are the "own people" of the People's Party.This kind of self-awareness is very weak in the second group.

He Zudao asked, soldiers look at me and look at you, the 40-year-old soldier finally spoke. "I joined our insurance group. First, I want to eat more. Second, I also want to protect myself. I will not be bullied when I divide the land. Speaking of future plans, I plan to let the family share the land. Good. Farming is enough. It’s the end of the year, and I don’t have any plans. Thanks to our insurance group, there are seven members of my family, and only one has died so far. It seems that there will be a harvest, and this year will not Starve to death. That's all."

Someone took the lead, and although the soldiers were not in high spirits, they were quite stable.After all, everyone is an honest farmer, and they can do anything to survive the flood.Seeing that the food has grown now, everyone naturally resumed their old habits.Take safety first.The Chinese people are such pragmatic people, nothing is as real as having food in hand.

And at this time, everyone is very conservative.No one wants to cause trouble, and if something happens, the food that can be obtained will be gone.The cold winter is not easy to get through.If you don't eat, it will definitely kill you.

"Political Commissar He, you don't have to worry, we will definitely work hard. We must plant this year's grain well." This is the most spoken word.

Looking at these soldiers, He Zudao was very moved.It is very clear how hard everyone has to work in order to survive.

"Comrades, the insurance group is our people's own team. The food grown must be eaten by everyone. The cadres will not be allowed to eat too much, and the soldiers will not eat less. If there is a grain, everyone will eat together One piece of grain, one handful of rice, everyone will eat this handful of rice together. As long as our insurance group is still alive, this rule will not be broken. No one will eat more than others, and no one will eat more Less than others. There is absolutely no need to worry about this.”

This is the long-standing publicity of the insurance group, and it is also the persistence of the insurance group.Soldiers have a personal experience of this.

"We want to catch the bad guys this time because they ruined the crops. These crops are not Brigadier Chen's crops, not mine. They are the crops of our entire insurance group. These bad guys are like mice, ruining the crops today. Let’s waste some food tomorrow. How much food do we have that can withstand such waste? Comrades, we can’t stand such waste.”

The fighters are not stupid, why is it so reasonable to say that, the next blow to these bad guys will be merciless.Moreover, it is not necessary for the soldiers to report these people.Most importantly, many of the soldiers really knew who these bad guys were.

Some fighters have decided to report, while others have various concerns.

He Zudao was not in a hurry to ask for more information. What he needed now was to familiarize himself with the situation and walk around the various companies.So to everyone's surprise, He Zudao left after talking for a few more words.
