Lost and Spy

Chapter 2500 The Land of Immortals
Guangxi has always been a place with strong folk customs, and the Guangdong and Guangxi areas probably all produce heroes.

After the Battle of Songhu broke out, the national government originally expected to recruit tens of thousands of soldiers in Guangxi, but it did not expect that 10,000+ people signed up.

There was no way, the national government, who hadn't realized how tragic the Battle of Songhu would be at the time, could only decide who would go to the battlefield by drawing lots.

Guangxi soldiers, "wolf soldiers" too!

The main force of the national army withdrew from Shanghai, and the Gui army was placed in the back position.

The wolf soldiers once again showed their demeanor in the final battle in Shanghai.

They fought the Japanese army bloody with earthen guns and broadswords to the end, and never retreated a step.

In the Battle of Songhu, the Gui Army suffered more than [-] casualties, making it the warlord force with the most casualties in the battle!

After Guangxi became the rear area, the troops deployed around Guilin reached the size of six divisions.

There are also elite teachers among them.

However, there are many factions and the chain of command is chaotic.

For example, the 46th Army and the 31st Army have a total of four divisions.

The 175th Division belongs to the national army sequence, and is backed by senior officials of the national army.

The commander of the 46th Army belongs to the Guangxi faction, and he can command only the 19th Division.

Look at the commander of the 31st Army, from the Central Department.

But the commander of the 135th division under him is Bai Chongxi's confidant, and the commander of the 188th division is Bai Chongxi's nephew.

How do you ask the commander to mobilize them?

This created a strange situation where the commander could not mobilize the army commander, and the army commander could not mobilize the division commander.

Of the remaining two divisions, one is recognized as having the worst combat effectiveness, the 131st Division with Kan Weiyong as the commander, and the 170th Division with Xu Gaoyang as the commander, which is composed entirely of recruits.

These two divisions do not belong to the Central Department, nor do they belong to the Guangxi Department, they are simply caught in the middle and suffer.

Therefore, the situation in Guangxi, especially Guilin, is complicated and chaotic.

But no matter what, the whole of Guangxi is a refuge for refugees during the Anti-Japanese War.

Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the total population of Guangxi was 400 million.

By this year, it had surged to nearly 500 million.

Most of the extra million people are refugees.

Therefore, this has created a strange phenomenon. Once you enter Guangxi, you can almost hear dialects from all over the country.

Henan, Hebei, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Southwest China, and Southeast Asia.

From all over the world, there are people who can say anything.

The increasing number of refugees has caused prices in Guangxi to soar.

The increase of refugees makes management difficult and affects social security.

Coupled with the increase of unemployed refugees, it has brought difficulties to employment.

Among the refugee groups, women, the elderly, and children are vulnerable groups because they are weak and lack the ability to work, and many of them have access to food and other means of living. Naturally, they are in the most difficult situation.

This has seriously increased the burden on the Guangxi government.

But even so, the Guangxi people still showed their broad minds. Under the leadership of the Guangxi government, they spared no effort to rescue these refugees.

They divided Guangxi into several relief areas, set up professional refugee relief stations, and uniformly arranged and supervised rescue, evacuation, accommodation and provision, transportation, production, distribution, medical care, and air raid relief for refugees.

Meng Shaoyuan entered Guangxi from Cangwu in the east.

As soon as I entered Cangwu, I saw a large number of refugees queuing up.

In front, is a big banner:

Cangwu Branch of Guangxi Refugee Relief Association.

A woman with four children was in line.

Everyone held a cloth bag in their hands.

There was a child who was disobedient, and the woman trained him a few words.

When Meng Shaoyuan heard it, it turned out to be Shanghai dialect.

He stepped forward and asked in Shanghai dialect: "Sister, are you sending something here?"

As soon as the woman heard that she was a fellow villager, she immediately nodded her head repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Lennon also escaped?"

"Yes, sister, I also escaped from Shanghai."

"Hey, why don't you line up here, this place is specially for the elderly and women and little girls. Well, adults have a catty of rice, and little girls have half a catty."

The woman seemed particularly enthusiastic: "Nongxiao is young, there is a special factory to teach them how to do things. If you are not healthy, you can still make cigarettes, make straw sandals, and twist rope."

"Ah, ok, ok, I see, thank you Lennon, sister."

Meng Shaoyuan took a look. Although the line was long, it was orderly.

After chatting with Li Zhifeng for a while, suddenly a few people in suits were handing out a thin booklet.

Meng Shaoyuan also took a copy.

"Implementation Measures of Guangxi Zhenji Association for Small Loans".

This is a guide dedicated to issuing small loans.

Those who have no bad habits, have a fixed residence and want to make a living on their own but lack capital can fill in the relevant loan application form and apply for a loan after verification.

For example, street vendors can borrow 20 to 50 yuan, and small shops can borrow 50 to 100 yuan.No interest and other related fees are charged on the loan.

"Good, good." Meng Shaoyuan was full of praise: "With the support of micro-loans, refugees can be self-employed, reduce the government's financial burden, and help the recovery of local economic production. Guangxi is a good way."

While talking there, the tweeter suddenly sounded.

It is about the prevention of infectious diseases and the knowledge of how to extinguish them.

There are many mountainous areas in Guangxi, and infectious diseases are rampant.

Therefore, the Guangxi government has also set up epidemic prevention committees in various places, distributed medicines, established clinics, and actively toured for prevention and control.

These measures have also minimized the hazards of infectious diseases.

"What kind of fairy-like place is this?"

Meng Shaoyuan finally couldn't bear it any longer: "If governments all over the country learn from Guangxi, will our country be able to do well?"

"Boss, this is only Cangwu." Li Zhifeng reminded in a low voice, "It's only a few hundred miles away from Guilin. We can't walk on two legs, can we?
Guangxi is good, but here is a mountainous area, and there have always been bandits. I heard that there are tens of thousands of bandits.

That is to say, the Anti-Japanese War, the bandits did not dare to go too far, and I have never heard of any major murders.But I'm the only one by your side, what if something happens to you? "

"Cangwu is commanded by the Wuzhou group, right?"

Meng Shaoyuan thought about it for a while: "Send a contact signal, let's spend the night in Cangwu today, and wait for the other party to take the initiative to contact us.

Li Zhifeng, from now on, I will still be Cai Xuefeng, the supervisory commissioner sent by Chongqing. "

"Your route is wrong."

Li Zhifeng reminded: "Those who entered Guangxi from Cangwu must have come from Guangdong."

"Ah, is it?" Meng Shaoyuan was a blind man, scratching his head there: "Damn it, I'm a commissioner for supervision. I'll go to Guangdong for inspection first, and then go to Guangxi, can't I?"

"Okay, why not, you are the boss, you can say whatever you want."

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and find a cleaner hotel, I'm exhausted from the journey."

Meng Shaoyuan yawned, exhausted.

The first impression of entering Guangxi is still very good, but after that, what will he see?
Meng Shaoyuan himself didn't know.
