On the day Wang Ying returned to the regional office from Yamawang Mountain, he immediately convened several cadres from the regional government to discuss the matter of land reform.
These cadres are the specific persons in charge of various aspects of the regional government affairs. They are all experienced veteran comrades, including the Minister of Organization, the Minister of Propaganda, the Minister of United Front Work, the Minister of Democratic Movement, the Minister of Military Affairs and the Director of the Women's Committee.
The first thing Wang Ying has to do is to unify opinions at the upper levels, and then promote them to the lower levels.
"Take a look, this is a pamphlet on land reform compiled by Comrade Zhao Gang, political commissar of the independent detachment!"
Everyone present held pamphlets and circulated them to each other, while Wang Ying sat aside with a teapot and watched everyone's reactions.
"Do people in the army still understand this?" said the Propaganda Minister present.
"Oh, Lao Zheng, what you said is a bit deviated from reality. The comrades of the independent detachment did a good job in conducting pilot projects in their base areas. Now it seems that you, the propaganda minister, have not done your job well.
!”
"Yes, I didn't do my job well, I admit that, but the United Front Work Department did a good job? Aren't the people who have ideological problems all from your United Front Work Department?"
Seeing the two people blaming each other, Wang Ying slapped the teapot on the table and said with a serious face: "Okay, have you finished reading the booklet?"
Everyone nodded, and the director of the Women's Committee said: "There are too many documents distributed by superiors, and the standards for the same type of things are often changed. Now if we can confirm that this is the standard for land reform, then the next work will be much easier!"
Wang Ying nodded after hearing this: "I'm here to make a review first. When the district government was first established, many things did not have specific regulations, which led to mistakes made by comrades in specific work. I bear the main responsibility!"
"Of course, I also want to make it clear that you are all old comrades. As the main members of the district government, the first thing you should do is the unity among comrades. If you can't live in harmony with each other, then let other leftists and
What do democrats think? Is the work still being done?”
"There is no need to carry ideological baggage. If you have any matters, please make it clear at the meeting today and don't infect other comrades with your emotions!" Wang Ying finally said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the United Front Minister who just spoke immediately raised his hand, and then said: "Don't misunderstand me, quarrels between Lao Zheng and I are common, and I apologize here!"
The Propaganda Minister also spoke: "Come on, Lao Zhang, I'm used to your talk, but you're right, the Propaganda Department has indeed slacked off in its work recently, and I will hurry up!"
Several people present quickly reached a consensus. Wang Ying went on to say: "Land reform is imperative. The standards will be as stated in the booklet. However, the specific problems faced during the implementation process must be carefully measured!"
"The regional government is responsible for Licheng and Lucheng areas. Comrade Manjiang, you are responsible for the left-behind office!" Wang Ying said to the Minister of Military Affairs: "The Second Regiment of the Independent Detachment is in Shexian County. After the meeting, you will contact the Second Regiment to request cooperation.
, the four or five die-hards in Shexian County will not settle down, always pay attention to their movements, I will leave the rear to you, if there is a real problem, don’t be lenient!"
"Yes!" Military Minister Man Jiang nodded.
"Comrade Zhang Fusheng, the problematic working group under your United Front Work Department will be put into quarantine immediately after the meeting. Before the local tyrants, evil gentry, traitors and puppet army officers in Licheng and Lucheng are eliminated, the news of land reform must not be leaked!"
"We will each take one of the remaining six working groups and station them in Licheng and Lucheng respectively early tomorrow morning. By then, the comrades of the New Regiment and the 28th Regiment will cooperate with us!"
"Act quickly and don't give them time to react. Since they usually collude with the Japanese and puppet troops to oppress the people, we don't have to be soft. How can we continue to implement land reform without seeing blood!" Wang Ying said vigorously.
That night, there was also a meeting on King of Hell Mountain, and the meeting was limited to Zhou Weihan and the four of them.
"Wang Ying sent a telegram in the afternoon. The land reform is proceeding as normal. The troops are in charge of Ci County. I mean tomorrow morning, the political commissar and I will personally lead the working group to Ci County to take charge!"
"Yunshan, you stay at Yanwang Mountain, and Lao Xing, you go to Li Daben's garrison to take charge, and always pay attention to the movements of Wuyi and Wu'an counties!" Zhou Weihan said.
"There is no problem in being in the rear. The key is that there are comrades in the working group composed of the Political Department and the Staff Office. After all, they do not have much experience in land reform. Most of them are young comrades in their 20s, and they are enthusiastic about work.
There is no problem in going to the grassroots to conduct investigations in the early stage, but when it comes to specific agricultural matters, you may not know enough about it, and the knowledge here is not shallow!" Xing Zhiguo said at the side.
When Zhou Weihan heard this, he frowned. At the very least, there are good and bad farmlands.
To be honest, Zhao Gang could only take command from the center during his two visits to Cixian County and could not be responsible for specific affairs. The two of them were just supplementary, and they did not know much about this aspect.
"This thing is easy to handle. We have people on the mountain who specialize in this. Many comrades on the farm are qualified for this job. Aren't they the ones who take care of so much farmland on weekdays?" Li Yunshan said immediately.
Zhou Weihan slapped his forehead, wondering why he had forgotten this matter, and then shouted out the door: "Monk, call Ding Abacus!"
Not long after, Ding Abacus hurried to the headquarters.
Zhou Weihan told Ding Abacus about this matter. Ding Abacus wiped the sweat from his forehead and took a deep breath: "Detachment leader, what's the urgent matter for me!"
"We don't have any other skills. We used to dig food in the fields. I walked around and wondered about the yield of an acre of land. I grabbed a handful of soil and smelled it with my nose.
Just know how fertile it is!”
"Haha, I really didn't know you had this ability before. If you go tomorrow, how many people can you draw from the farm?" Zhou Weihan asked with a smile.
"If you move quickly, there will be no problem for a hundred and eighty people!"
"That's it. You go back immediately to organize the manpower and set off early tomorrow morning!"
"Yes!" Ding Abacus accepted the order and left.
"The land reform in Ci County will not end in a short time. Lao Zhao and I will come back when things stabilize. The base area will be handed over to you. Let's all disperse!" Zhou Weihan finally said.
At four o'clock in the morning on the 12th.
A total of 186 people from the six working groups plus farm personnel selected by Ding Abacus were assembled.
Since the Fourth Regiment currently has a small number of troops, in order to ensure the smoothness of the trip, the cavalry regiment being formed also received orders to go to Ci County.
Zhu Dashan had long wanted the cavalry company to exercise its arms and legs, and these local tyrants and evil gentry were just the weak persimmons for practicing.
Taking advantage of the darkness, a group of people rode horses or carriages and secretly entered Ci County.
As for Ci County, the news about the land reform was limited to the commander of the fourth regiment, the political commissar and the two battalion commanders. The instructor knew that the other forces were unknown.
