Chapter 097: Moral Government Project in the Republic of China
(This story is purely fictional, please do not imitate it!)
"Of course, except for the above, our independent detachment is exactly the same as the Red Army. Officers and soldiers are equal, the three major disciplines and the eight points of attention, and D's political and ideological work has not been neglected!"
"Just now some comrades said that we are extravagant. I have told you before that this is my private treat! If you think it is extravagant, I will not treat you in the future. Except for occasional banquets and New Year celebrations, our headquarters usually
The cadres, like the soldiers in the guard camp, all eat in the cooking squad. There are not many opportunities like this."
"In addition, the comrade just now (Wu Aihua didn't even bother to say his name) has a fatal mistake in his concept, which is to equate revolution with egalitarianism. This is actually equivalent to the Kuomintang's slander that we are 'communists sharing wives'
Same thing! Comrades, revolution does not mean egalitarianism, nor does revolution mean poverty. In the revolutionary ranks, we should also encourage more rewards for more work!"
Wu Aihua did not make a conclusion on this debate or discussion. On the one hand, he worked hard to talk about these things and talked about them when he had the opportunity. On the other hand, it also depends on everyone’s awareness, and it also depends on whether the senior officials realize such a simple truth. However, Wu Aihua has
Confidence, Mao, Zhu, and Wednesday people can definitely realize this depth.
The next day, the central government called back, asking Ye Fei and more than a dozen comrades to "collectively join the independent detachment and work hard to learn from the commanders and fighters of the independent detachment." As for the arrangements for these people, the central government clearly stated that they should go to the "front-line troops" for training.
The next day, the regiment-level cadres returned to Longyan, and Wu Aihua organized a military meeting. The meeting determined three thematic tasks: First, use the rare peace opportunity after the Battle of Eastern Guangdong to strive to expand the red; second, speed up the roads, infrastructure and construction of the base area.
Project construction; the third is to strengthen military training, especially to strengthen cooperation training between new recruits and veterans, and between different arms, and to conduct training according to actual combat standards.
The direction of the independent detachment is correct. This is indeed a rare opportunity for peace. The gap between wars is just a little long, and it actually lasted for half a year. During these six months, Chiang Kai-shek was intensifying his troops and preparing to attack the Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi border areas. This
In the past six months, the independent detachment has not been idle, and has achieved results that are no less than those of the Chiang Kai-shek Group!
Six major projects were held and implemented to build infrastructure and people's livelihood. In the past, the Central Red Army did not pay special attention to the construction of base areas due to various factors, or it lacked the means to improve production and living conditions in the base areas. Wu Aihua has the philosophy of later generations,
Even without the golden finger of the "merit system", he would attach great importance to infrastructure construction and people's livelihood development. You must know that what you fight for is money, and what you fight for is strength. Although infrastructure or people's livelihood construction in war years cannot be as good as in peace
Time is so important, but as long as there are conditions, we must build. The earlier we build, the earlier we will benefit.
This kind of engineering project has a particularly nice name in later generations, called "Moral Government Project". In this era, Wu Aihua's move can be regarded as a real virtuous government bird——
"Highway County Access Project". More than 2,000 kilometers of roads have been built, renovated, and expanded. Although they are gravel roads, cars can travel at speeds of 25-30 kilometers. This kind of road construction is completely in accordance with wartime standards.
There are supply stations and relief stations at regular intervals, and there are also air defense units on some dangerous sections (sections that are easily bombed by enemy planes).
"Commercial Network Project". Set up commercial institutions in each town with a population of more than 3,000 in the base area. On the one hand, they will purchase excess agricultural and sideline products and local specialties from the people; on the other hand, they will provide the people with all kinds of necessary daily necessities. In the past, the central government
When the Red Army was there, life in the base area was extremely difficult, and it was difficult for the people to even buy salt. However, after the independent detachment took control of this area, it broke the Kuomintang blockade and basically provided salt, kerosene, matches, soap, nails, cloth and other daily necessities for the people.
Guaranteed supply has been achieved.
"Hydropower development project". Previously, Wu Aihua had a hydropower development plan, but due to factors such as the small size of the army at the time and the instability of the base area, he had to abandon this plan. After June 1935, Wu Aihua felt that it was time to start the hydropower project.
It’s time to build 12 new small and micro hydropower projects in western Fujian, eastern Guangdong and other places, with an installed capacity of nearly 20,000 kilowatts, laying a good foundation for the economic development of the base areas. As for those suitable for the construction of medium and large hydropower stations
Wu Aihua did not touch this place, leaving it to be properly constructed in the future when conditions are met.
"Work-for-relief project". This project is implemented in conjunction with the first, third and other economic construction projects. Relief means that the government provides relief to people who are living in particularly difficult circumstances, but the government does not necessarily provide cash and materials.
The method of providing relief is to require the people to invest in the construction of infrastructure projects, and the government pays the people. (In some poor areas in later generations, this was a very important means. However, the specific implementation process was somewhat distorted.
.) In this half a time, half a million people in the base area participated in this project, which greatly improved the people's livelihood in the base area.
"Orphan Rescue Project". Due to years of war, the proportion of orphans in the base area is not low. Many orphans became beggars when they were five or six years old. Wu Aihua could not see this phenomenon, so he worked in Changting, Yong'an, Longyan, Meizhou, and Ruijin respectively.
Five large orphanages have been built, or in other words, these are five large orphan schools, because these children are organized into classes according to their age after entering the orphanage. The main task is to study and study, and there are also some secondary tasks.
For example, children aged 5-7 years old should concentrate on their studies, and what they need to do is to learn to wash their faces, feet, and other things, and maintain good personal hygiene; children aged 8-11 years old should be responsible for cleaning the orphanage and taking on certain management tasks.
The tasks of younger orphans; children aged 12-15 have to engage in certain labor, such as growing vegetables in the orphanage grounds, helping teachers cook, etc. Those who are 16 years old or older can enter various companies in the base area.
Or join the Red Army.
The person in charge of the orphanage is a female Red Army soldier or a person with a certain level of education; the ordinary managers of the orphanage mostly hire more capable Red Army family members; the teachers of cultural courses are solved through recruitment, volunteers, etc. In fact,
Wu Aihua's project received responses from people from all walks of life in the base area. Even those who had no good impressions of the gcd in the past changed their views after seeing Wu Aihua's move, and even actively requested to go to the orphan school to give children cultural classes.
.
"Disease Treatment Project". Wu Aihua had previously thought about whether free treatment would gain merit points. Later, he conducted an experiment at the Central Hospital, which proved that his guess was completely correct, but the merit points would vary depending on the severity of the illness.
It’s just different, but on average, treating one person for free actually has 0.6 merit points. If this is converted into Mauser 98k rifles, you can get 6 Mausers by treating 10 people; if you convert it into a "Chaozhou-class" destroyer, you can get 6 Mausers by treating 10,000 people.
6,000 merit points can be exchanged for 6 "Chaozhou-class" destroyers. Not to mention the latest destroyers from 1935, even if it is replaced by an iron-hulled ship from the 1900s, as long as it is a 1,000-ton class, its value is great.
As soon as the test was successful, Wu Aihua, who was overjoyed, suddenly remembered a Buddhist saying, "Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!" This is really "there is no greater good".
Therefore, Wu Aihua immediately built a charity hospital called "Aihua Hospital" in every county, and tried his best to "exchange" foreign devils as attending doctors. Treatment and medicine were completely free for the poor. Of course, for the rich,
They must charge money. Because during the experiment, Wu Aihua discovered that if a rich person comes for treatment without charging money, the system will not reward merit points at all. Just like accidentally killing a person from his own camp, the system will not reward merit points.
Same.
Strangely, this system is really a model of "dislike the rich and love the poor".
But where did the hospital's expenses come from? Haha, in the early days, Wu Aihua could only drink poison to quench his thirst, and kept selling weapons. These weapons were first changed hands through Chen Jitang's men, and secondly, through the "Huafeng Trading Company" set up by Hao Yong in Gulangyu Island.
Of course, they mainly sell Mauser 98k rifles and heavy weapons, which Wu Aihua would not dare to sell easily.
Saving people and killing people are subtly unified in Wu Aihua.
In terms of economic construction, Wu Aihua has built and expanded nine major projects in the past six months, covering various aspects such as agriculture, light industry, heavy industry, and military industry.
Specific projects include: 1. Agricultural Science Research Institute and improved seed breeding base; 2. Steel production base, including iron ore mining and smelting, with an annual output of 100,000 tons of steel and 20,000 tons of gun steel; 3. Petrochemical industrial base, including petroleum smelting,
Petrochemical industry can process 200,000 tons of petrochemical products annually. The oil required for this project depends entirely on imports; 4. Machinery and automobile industry base can produce 10,000 units (sets) of various medium and large machinery (machine tools) annually.
5,000 cars; No. 5 Military Industry Factory, which produces artillery and firearms of 60mm and below, totaling 60 guns, 37 anti-aircraft guns, 20mm anti-aircraft guns, and semi-automatic rifles. The first few are technical data issued by the system, while the latter are
Wu Aihua plagiarized the design principles of later Type 56 semi-automatic rifles; 6 Military Industry No. 2 Factory, specializing in the production of tanks, with an annual output of 1,200 vehicles, and also repairing tanks; 7 Military Industry Factory No. 3, producing various artillery shells, bullets, special ammunition, grenades,
Mines, sea mines, torpedoes, etc.; 8 non-ferrous metal production bases, which mainly mine and utilize existing mineral resources in western Fujian and eastern Guangdong, can mine and process 1 million tons of non-ferrous metal ores annually, and gold production is included in the scope of non-ferrous metal production.
It has 9 coal production bases and 5 major coal mines with an annual output of 10 million tons of raw coal.
Some of the above-mentioned projects have been completed and put into production, some are under construction, and some are still in the planning and design stage, but all projects, according to their priority, will be completed and put into production in early 1937. Wu Aihua plans to rely on the above-mentioned industrial production capacity to build a
This is an unprecedented national war.
In addition to the above-mentioned projects, Wu Aihua also used the experience of later generations to carry out some projects with quick results and high profits, such as the establishment of the "Western Fujian Food Industry Group", which mainly produces military convenience meals, civilian convenience foods, canned foods, candies and pastries
and several major categories, with its target clearly focused on the Second World War that broke out a few years later. Of course, these foods, including instant noodles, have registered patents and trademarks in various countries around the world; for example, the establishment of "Huaxia Tobacco Company" to produce "Huaxia Brand cigarettes"
"This is a completely pirated design of a famous tobacco from later generations (Wu Aihua brought samples to the Republic of China). As for the taste, including tobacco flavors suitable for Westerners, under the huge robot R&D team, it is not a problem at all.
