Chapter 1191 Bitter Winter Day ([-])
In the Chengdu Plain in winter, the weather is not cold, but thick clouds are floating, dyeing everything with a cold and hard color.So the clouds are gray, and so are the trees on the field.

More than a hundred miles west of Chengdu, Shannanba is a well-known large village in the vicinity. There are more than 500 residents in the village, with a total of more than [-] households.

Close to mountains and rivers, the official road from east to west was built here early. This year, the Huaxia Army has widened the official road again, and transported bricks, tiles and wood.The land was leveled on the side of the official road, and the construction of a school began.By the end of October, as the rumors of Juntiandi intensified, the working group of the Huaxia Army entered here in a mighty manner.The atmosphere around the village immediately became tense.

As one of the first batch of hundreds of villages involved in the land equalization operation, there were eight working groups, one hundred and two people, who came to Shannanba. The number of each group ranged from twelve to thirteen, plus the accompanying guards. Soldiers, with a total of 130 six members.On the second day after arriving at Shannanba, the whole work has been carried out step by step.

After occupying the Chengdu Plain, the first task of the Huaxia Army was to conduct a general survey of the land and household registration of the entire area under its jurisdiction. This is the preliminary preparation for land reform.

Since June of this year, with the exaggeration of the idea of ​​equality, interviews with various major landlords and clans in Shu regarding land policies have been launched one after another.In mid-to-late August, after the General Assembly passed the resolution on land reform, a large number of gentry and landlords went to Chengdu or Zhangcun to negotiate with the Huaxia Army on the details of the reform.

The relatively intense negotiation period of about two months did not yield substantial results.

During this period, after the General Assembly passed the resolution, it began to allocate personnel in various departments in an orderly manner, established core demands, formulated specific plans, and split the implementation steps.Afterwards, members of the law, propaganda, civil affairs, land, finance and other departments were organized to enter the practical simulation stage, and according to the progress of the negotiation, a certain degree of confrontation exercise was carried out.

Under Ning Yi's direct overall responsibility, there is no external disturbance that can delay the progress of these preparations.

On October 25th, a total of 920 three working groups, together with more than [-] people composed of some military officers, completed the final assembly and oath, and were simultaneously cast to [-] nodes in the entire southwest land.

Land reform begins.

……

Shannanba, Ning Xi conducted a two-day field visit and identification work with the experienced shopkeeper of Zhuji and the veterans of the Huaxia Army who used to be stationed in Shannanba.

He is now one of the three advocates of No. 17 working group among the [-] working groups, which is the focus of the entire land reform work.According to the official arrangement of the Huaxia Army, in order to obtain the right to equal land distribution, the local residents must first conduct seven formal lectures, three militia drills, and a simple assessment. The instructors need to be responsible for these lectures and the final assessment .

From the current political system of the Huaxia Army, the scale of tens of thousands of people has been transferred into this inevitable long-term operation. At this time, the various groups try to implement the strategy of bringing the old with the new.The leader of the No.17 working group, and also the responsibility of the captain of the entire Shannanba, is Kang Zhuming, who was one of the leaders of Zhuji in the past.

This is a senior shopkeeper who has followed Zhuji since Jurchen went south for the first time. He has accompanied Jianbi Qingye and participated in the battle of Xia Village. He is one of the most outstanding executives in the Huaxia Army.While shouldering the responsibilities of the general captain and team leader, he is also one of the three propagandists in the No.17 working group, responsible for imparting the necessary propagandist skills to Ning Xi who has started to work with this kind of specific mass work.

The nearly 17 residents of Shannanba have already been divided into eight parts according to their residences, and more than 12 adults among them are under the responsibility of the No.[-] team. Therefore, in the first two days, Kang Zhuming took Ning Xi and others to identify places in the village. and the number of people, and visit the door to understand the basic situation.In addition to the three preachers who lead the class and the veterans stationed in the village, there is a young man who is in charge of logistics and also comes to study behind them. Only four fingers are the posthumous son of Qin Shaohe who was taken back to the southwest after living in the north for [-] years.In the past, the pet name Shishi was now named Qin Weijun.

"...From the stream in the north to the road in the south, this area is easy to remember...Try to remember how many people there are in each household. It's not troublesome to record in the early stage. I'm afraid that there will be accidents in the middle...these more than 200 people, and then divide them. Work in six classes, six rounds of preaching every day, if there are a few people who refuse to come every day, it will be very troublesome in the later stage, and there will even be more impostors and troublemakers. We won't give them any land, but in our first round of work, we still try to be as beautiful as possible, there is no need to make chicken feathers and duck blood... I used to remember people's appearance, and I have some experience..."

While visiting, Kang Zhuming shared these points with Ning Xi and Qin Weijun.Ning Xi listened carefully and made a note in the notebook. Qin Weijun, who was carrying a burden, leaned over to watch.

It was the slack season in the countryside at the end of October. In the gray and black houses, children with snotty noses were shouting and running on the roads. Some earthen walls had been painted with "equal land rights", "equality" and "civil rights". ” and other slogans, the adults looked at the members of the Huaxia Army walking in the village with vigilance, confusion or eagerness under the eaves and houses.

In the dimness, eyes exchanged, whispers.

Kang Zhuming and others, who were dressed in shabby but neat clothes, went to the courtyards one by one under the leadership of the veterans stationed in the village.After entering the door, Kang Zhuming first saluted and then greeted him.

"It's Liu Sanwu's Uncle Liu's house, hello old uncle, I'm Kang Zhuming, a preacher from the Huaxia Army..."

After the No.2 preacher reported his name, Ning Xi also saluted from the sidelines, and said loudly, "Uncle, my name is dog egg!"

Qin Weijun said, "My name is Maodan."

Both of them took on affectionate names.

"...We're here to do the land allocation. I don't know that Uncle Qing doesn't know about this matter... By the way, I take the liberty to come to the door and have some small gifts. Everyone has them. Uncle, don't be polite..."

During the conversation, Qin Weijun presented a small packet of candy with an equality promotion image. When the other party accepted it embarrassedly, he began to tell about the lectures that were going to be taught in the next two days. By the way, the actual number and name of the family were confirmed. .

In the cold and gloomy village, the propaganda members of the eight groups were visiting the residents in the village, saying hello, handing out propaganda candies, and introducing the future course matters.Seeing that the members of the Huaxia Army were mild-mannered, many residents also carefully asked questions such as whether they could really get land points and whether the assessment was difficult after a little communication. Kang Zhuming and others also patiently responded. Some explanation.

The state said that it should give people land and that everyone should be equal. This is something that has never happened and has not been realized for thousands of years. Its beginning is just like this. Full of anxiety and doubts.

There are also some residents who have shown great resistance to this matter. The chatter and whispers in winter are occasionally mixed with the scolding of the elderly in the village.

On this day, Kang Zhuming and Ning Xi visited more than fifty households in the village one after another. The two sides separated only in the evening. He hurriedly grabbed a few bites of food in the cafeteria and then went to another front in the village.This is the site where the land, finance, and legal team members communicated with the clan elders and big landlords in the village on land redemption. The atmosphere was oppressive and dull.

The team members who came here have been preaching and communicating with the village owners and elders for a whole day.However, with the arrival of Kang Zhuming, the atmosphere in the ancestral hall still erupted into a wave of enthusiastic climax, and all the topics that had been raised during the day were re-launched - but this was also expected in the previous deduction - Kang Zhuming made another response to various topics, from the general trend of the world to the thinking of the Huaxia Army to the arrangement of everyone's interests.

"...This land is handed down from my ancestors, and I have never taken it by accident... Your Huaxia army is bullying others and doing perverse acts, aren't you afraid of the mutiny of the people—"

In addition to responding, Kang Zhuming just said calmly: "We hope that we should not mutiny."

Throughout the ages, the interests of land and people's maintenance of the justice of private property have never been able to be changed by a quiet debate of words.As the other party said, his ancestors have accumulated land from generation to generation, and in his eyes, he has never robbed him. You suddenly want to take his land, saying that it is for everyone's equality and for a better future. Such a thing is a good reason. Speaking of three or five years, I am afraid that it is impossible to convince people.

But in any case, after more than a month of publicity in the early stage of the Huaxia Army, the first official greeting under the land allocation process was reached.

According to the predetermined work plan, the entire land allocation work is carried out from these two directions. When the publicity work to ordinary people is completely completed and the assessment is over, the redemption of all land will be completed.

That night, the sparks were faint, and the lights in Liu's ancestral hall burned until midnight. People with lots of land in their homes were indignant, insulted, and discussed countermeasures. Everywhere in the village, the tenant farmers who had no land were also in the dark. Whispering, some people have slight expectations, and some people think that it may be an excuse for the Huaxia Army to snatch the fields of the gentlemen.

On the morning of the second day, Kang Zhuming had more business affairs to preside over. Ning Xi, who went by the pseudonym Goudan, and another preacher continued to distribute the villagers they visited yesterday, and those who might be absent or who seemed to be more troublesome would be assigned to them. A new round of supplements has been made.In the afternoon, with "Cat Dan" Qin Weijun as the audience, in the small wooden shed at the back of the school, they had another round of rehearsal on the content to be preached next.

"Cough cough, fellow villagers and elders, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters, I am the preacher of the Huaxia Army, Chen Goudan... Hey, hey hey, in the next few days, I will discuss it clearly with the villagers and elders, Huaxia. The army came to divide the land this time, what is it for..."

The cat egg applauds vigorously...

……

In the early morning of October 29, the morning mist was still gathering and drifting on the winter plain, and the gong of assembly was sounded in the new school in Shannanba. Soon after, the preachers went to the village to gather the people who had already had breakfast.After about half an hour of dancing around, the first group of people gathered on the school playground and entered the classrooms with rows of low stools in batches.

Ning Xi arranged her clothes outside the classroom, took a deep breath, and walked inside——

……

According to the scheduled process, there are seven indoor courses of Huaxia Army.

From the achievements of the Huaxia Army and the concept of the four peoples to the simple equality of all people, and from the fact that everyone is equal to the fact that it is difficult for people who have no culture and no thinking to truly be equal to others, promote the desire of the Huaxia Army to achieve equality in substance The various means that were prepared to be adopted, and then in some extremely popular, even similar to strange rumors, to state the great power of Quantitative Physics on the battlefield and the fresh appearance that has been shown in Chengdu, to tell some common sense of the law, and finally to teach Everyone clearly recognizes the word "Huaxia", learns to write their own name as much as possible, and initially recognizes ten Arabic numerals.

——And the final assessment of land allocation is actually a simple writing of his name and the Chinese character.

In the whole course of the lecture, according to the specific situation, a section of "Tenant Farmers Complaints" is interspersed, and three outdoor drills are combined to instill the concept of simple formation and "order and prohibition" into all the participating people.Those who have completed this round start to allocate arable land.

The outline of the matter is not complicated. In the entire southwest land, according to the distance, the time of the first batch of lectures in history is October 29th, [-]th, the first day of November, and the second day of the middle school. Simple unfolding is step-by-step.

But resistance followed.

In Shannanba, on the afternoon of October 29, five village elders began to cry and curse in the village. They either kowtowed in the direction of their ancestral graves to cry for grievances, or blocked the road to the school, cursing and preparing to go to class. The villagers in the village are white-eyed wolves, and there must be retribution. A 79-year-old old man in the village knocked his forehead to blood on the school playground.

In the past, in Shannanba, the Liu clan was still very powerful, and the villagers who witnessed all this were a little helpless for a while, and some decided not to go to the class anymore.At this time, the first class in batches had not completely covered the entire village of Shannanba, and the situation seemed to freeze, and people were waiting for the response of the Huaxia Army.

In a quarter of an hour, the soldiers of the Huaxia Army used sticks to push away the old people who were blocking the road and on the playground. In another quarter of an hour, the soldiers of the Huaxia Army brought the list of crimes they had collected before, and went to the village to ask for people to take this Five young men from the five old people's homes were captured. After the suspected charges were announced, they were directly locked in a house on the side of the campus.

The five old people's grievances and crying that day were ignored, and they were only put aside with sticks. Military doctors were dispatched to treat the old man with bleeding on the forehead. After the other party refused, they ignored it.

On the second day, two more old men joined in to plead for injustice. On the same day, seven young men and women in the village were imprisoned, including a woman. She was accused of killing a concubine in her family with her servants in the past. death penalty.

In the afternoon of the same day, Liu Tang, the patriarch of the Liu clan, visited Kang Zhuming and tried to negotiate. When it came to how the 12 people could be exonerated, Kang Zhuming took out part of the list he had collected.

"Those who have not yet been arrested can be investigated privately as appropriate. The Huaxia Army will do its best to investigate the cases involving the 12 people that have been announced. Killing... this matter has no turning point, please don't say too much, Mr. Liu."

Liu Tang was horrified for a while, because the woman who had already been arrested was his brother's wife, his own sister-in-law.

On the same day, the cultural courses in the Shannanba classroom directly entered the stage of complaining.

This is a small wave in Shannanba during the whole process of development, while in other places, all kinds of conflicts are unfolding.

According to later records, 93 of the [-] large villages, when faced with such sudden and even unimaginable big actions, all set off frictions and resistances of greater or lesser extent.

Among them, the one with the most noise was Yujia Village, more than three hundred miles west of Chengdu.Not long after the death of the old patriarch of the Yu clan here, the new patriarch, Yu Tianze, practiced martial arts since he was a child. The 2000-member working group that besieged the Huaxia Army tried to break into the mountains after defeating the entire working group.

However, the members of the Huaxia Army's working group squatted on the ground, using firearms, fire and thunder and other objects to make the more than a thousand people under siege dare not come forward.Three hours later, the first [-] soldiers of the Huaxia Army in emergency response rushed across the mountain road and defeated Yu Tianze and others who were besieging the working group.Yu Tianze moved towards the mountains.

Eight hours later, 3000 members of the Huaxia Army gathered in Yujia Village, and then went into the mountains to suppress them. Yu Tianze and others tried to manipulate the terrain, but the Huaxia Army who had been in the southwest for many years had already gotten used to the mountains here. After defeating the main force of Yu Tianze's confidants, the He was captured alive in three days, and the suppression in the mountains continued until the seventh day before the troops were withdrawn.

All the leaders of the Yu clan who instigated the riots will be put on public trial three days later, and then all of them will be shot.

Events are summarized, published in newspapers, and widely disseminated.

This is an almost violent scene when listed separately.

For a long time, after entering Sichuan and Shu, the Huaxia Army has always maintained a friendly attitude, including passing the land reform order in August, and within two months of negotiation, it has always been friendly to all landlords and wealthy households. Courteous attitude, even when a hundred working groups have settled in major villages, visits and consultations are still calm and polite.

This makes many people think that the issue of land reform can still be negotiated or rejected.

No one expected that after such an ordinary round of game tactics, the entire reaction of the Huaxia Army would be so swift, resolute and even violent.Ning Yi's side almost took the attitude of confronting the Jurchens - or even surpassed this attitude - towards the entire southwestern land, and fell a fierce knife beyond imagination.

The whole southwest world was shaking.

In just a few days, everyone fully understood the determination of the Huaxia Army in promoting land reform.
