Chapter 273 Top priority

The drunk Yang Zhen woke up early the next morning, rubbed his head that was suffering from a hangover, and groaned involuntarily. Thinking of how drunk he was last night, he even forgot about discussing something alone with Li Yanping.

I couldn't help but think to myself: "Drinking too much is really delaying things. [.Com text]"

Yang Zhen, who seemed a little depressed because of his hangover, remembered that he had delayed what he originally wanted to talk to Li Yanping because of his drunkenness last night, and quickly wiped his face with cold water. After feeling more awake, he asked Xiao Huzi to give him

When he went to make breakfast, he called Li Yanping over.

Li Yanping, a typical man from Guandong, drinks much more than Yang Zhen, who is actually from Northeast China both internally and externally. Although he drank no less last night, he even drank more than Yang Zhen. When we met, he was in high spirits.

But his head is much better than Yang Zhen's.

After drinking millet porridge for a night, Yang Zhen felt much better in his stomach. He looked at Li Yanping, who looked a little confused and didn't know what important matter he had to come to find him so early in the morning. "Political Commissar"

"In the afternoon, cadres at all levels will rush back to attend the meeting of cadres at regiment level and above held by the military region."

"After the meeting, we have to talk to our respective cadres separately. We don't have much time today. Tomorrow I have to go to the front line with Lao Guo to survey the terrain, and we have to run outside for a long time. So it's so early in the morning,

I have called you here, I want to discuss something with you."

Having said this, Yang Zhen looked at Li Yanping in front of him and said: "Political Commissar, I have an idea. Look, this time we seized a large amount of Japanese and puppet funds in Jiamusi, and the current financial situation has been alleviated to a certain extent. Although it cannot

It has been completely relieved, but it is much better than the previous tight situation."

"I want to use the Jiamusi Normal School of the Puppet Manchukuo and the Puppet Manchukuo schools at all levels in various counties as a basis to establish a group of centralized boarding schools in the locations of various detachments of the Production and Construction Corps and in each county, and implement a universal compulsory education system in the base area.

.”

"Let the Political Department of the Military Region formulate a regulation that all children of school age must attend school to study. All study expenses and living expenses will be borne by the Military Region. If parents refuse to enroll their children, they will bear certain responsibilities and be subject to certain fines and other penalties.

.”

"Originally, this matter should be implemented by the local government, but now that the Northeast Working Committee has just been established, the local government is still in the consolidation stage, and there is no strength or energy to implement this matter. I think it is better for the military region to implement it, and wait until the appropriate time

, and then transfer it to the Northeast Bureau.”

"There are also several nurseries and complete boarding schools that implement the supply system. The children of army cadres and soldiers are taken in and cared for by unified arrangements. The children of martyrs, especially the children of local martyrs who join the army, are all taken away.

They will be uniformly supported by the military region. All orphans in the base area must also be collected. We have only one policy, which is not to allow a child of school age to miss school."

"As the situation gradually stabilizes and the base area expands, more and more of our cadres will start families. Although it is during the war, we cannot also delay the offspring. The younger ones will go to nurseries, and the older ones will

We cannot allow these descendants of the revolution to be left alone without anyone to care for them."

"This has several advantages. First, it can stabilize the morale of the military and allow cadres and soldiers to have no worries when fighting at the front. Second, it can also reduce the burden on the cadres' families when the living allowance is insufficient. Third, it also avoids letting the enemy down.

They took advantage of the situation and attacked our families when there was nothing they could do about us."

These things suddenly came to mind when Yang Zhen was lamenting the heavy burden of Li Yanping's family life last night. Chen Bo also mentioned this matter to him and asked him to follow the model of Yan'an Nursery to transfer cadres and soldiers to

The children are collected together. The first is to allow the cadres and soldiers to fight with peace of mind and not worry about the safety of their children. The second is to take good care of these descendants of the revolution and prevent them from having no one to care for them and living on the streets because of their parents' sacrifice."

It was just that the war was busy. Although he thought it made sense, Yang Zhen never bothered to think about it carefully. But in later generations, he had watched the classic movie "Ah, the Cradle" and had some impression of what Chen Bo said. It happened to be this

This time it was simply solved at once, which also solved the worries of the cadres who got married.

As for the implementation of universal compulsory education in the base areas, Yang Zhen had already thought about it before launching the Jiamusi Campaign. A century-old plan, education is the basis. Implementing universal compulsory education and changing the entire social knowledge structure is a good thing for the country.

People's affairs.

Even the Japanese invaders, in order to win over people's hearts, knew that they could not be inferior to those two-legged beasts by establishing a large number of so-called national schools in the Puppet Manchuria.

Having said this, Yang Zhen looked at Li Yanping and said emotionally: "Political Commissar, I know that doing this will cause a huge financial burden to the base area, but these are future generations. There is indeed a national war going on right now.

The war of liberation, but the war will end one day."

"After the war, this country still needs people to build it. We people have spent half a lifetime, or even a lifetime, with guns. Maybe fighting is okay, but construction still requires a large number of intellectuals. We can't do it right away.

If you conquer the world, you will immediately rule the world."

"Education starts from childhood, which is the foundation of a country. We are under a little more pressure now, but after the war is over in the future, our new China will still need a large number of professionals in various fields to build it. Implement universal compulsory education for all people

The compulsory education system can fundamentally change the people's knowledge structure and improve the cultural quality of the entire nation. This is a major event as important as the war of resistance and national salvation."

I originally thought that Yang Zhen was rushing to find him because of something big. After hearing Yang Zhen finish his thoughts, Li Yanping breathed a sigh of relief and did not answer him immediately. Instead, he pondered for a long time before saying.

: "Commander, I understand your idea. Implementing a universal compulsory education system is a major matter that benefits the country and the people."

"Is this just suitable for our current situation? You have to know that according to your plan, the investment of this amount of money is almost a huge amount. Can our current financial resources be able to support it?"

Regarding Li Yanping's concerns, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "Political Commissar, I am not only the commander of the Jidong Military Region, but also the second secretary of the Jidong Provincial Party Committee. Although I am just a pragmatic secretary

, but what needs to be done still needs to be done. The war is indeed the most important thing now, but my comrade, education is a century-old plan and cannot be delayed."

"Almost all primary and secondary schools in the base area have now been shut down, and a large number of students are now basically without education. In the previous stage, there were frequent wars, and we were unable to solve it. But now the situation has improved, and the problem of students out of school must be solved in a short time.

We must resolve it as soon as possible and we must not delay it any longer.”

"We must be responsible to the people and to future generations. We are the people's army, we are the people's political party, and represent the interests of the people. If we can't even solve such a small matter as students returning to school, how can we claim to be representatives?

The resumption of classes for the people and students must be treated as a top priority like the expansion of the army and the formation of the production and construction corps. In addition, financial resources must be given priority."

"These students are the future of the motherland, and our motherland will still rely on them to build it in the future. Whether it is building the country in the future or building our base areas, we need educated and knowledgeable talents. Can our anti-Japanese coalition forces even the little Japanese and the

Are they worse than those traitors in Manchukuo? No matter how much pressure there is, we must do a good job. Even if the living allowances of all single cadres are suspended, we must do a good job. If the money is not enough, it will be deducted from me first."

Yang Zhen's determination made Li Yanping slightly stunned. It's not that he didn't understand the importance of education, but in the current overwhelming situation of war, it is still not advisable to be too hasty about education. After all, there is no such thing in the military region now.

This financial resource is needed to ensure the construction of such a large number of schools.

But seeing Yang Zhen's resolute attitude, Li Yanping pondered for a while and then said: "Commander, do you think this is okay? Schools for the children of the army and the bereaved families of martyrs can be established by the military region. You are right, this involves

It is a major matter to stabilize the morale of the military. They are family members and survivors of the military, and the military has the right, responsibility and obligation to manage them."

"As for the proposed production and construction corps and local compulsory education schools, I suggest that it is better for the Northeast Bureau and the Northeast Working Committee to come forward. Our military region can fully cooperate in terms of manpower and material resources. Especially in terms of financial resources, it can even be fully funded by

Exit the military area."

"Didn't you allocate some funds to the newly established Northeast Working Committee from the funds seized in Jiamusi? I think we can make a budget and add the funds that the general area is prepared to invest. In this way, we can effectively assist

The Northeast Working Committee used this starting point to quickly open up the work situation and avoid criticism of the military's interference in local administration."

"There are ready-made Puppet Manchukuo national primary schools and national middle school buildings in the base area, and there are also a large number of teachers available. We only need to select some Chinese teachers, replace Japanese teachers, and expand some dormitories and canteens.

There is still cement in stock in Xingshan Fortress, and the infrastructure construction can be undertaken by the Military Region Engineer Corps."

“As for the schools needed by the Production and Construction Corps, it is too early to establish them now. We have not started immigration yet, and the Production and Construction Corps has not even been established yet. All we have is some reclaimed wasteland and pre-built houses.

I think we can set up a detachment after completing the immigration. In this way, even if all the expenses are borne by the military region, we don’t have to invest too much at once. Investing in batches can at least give us a breath of relief."

"We can make a budget and calculate as a whole how much money needs to be invested every year. We can first allocate a part of special funds and gold to establish a reserve fund, which will be gradually accumulated in the future. In this way, we can invest one by one, which avoids problems.

The situation of insufficient follow-up funds also prevents one-time investment from being too large, which would put huge pressure on the military region's already weak finances."

Speaking of this, Li Yanping smiled bitterly and said: "In fact, in terms of the entire investment, the one-time investment should not be too large. The initial investment is mainly the renovation and expansion of the school building. This has the foundation and the cost will not be too much. In

One is teachers’ salaries. If we pay according to Puppet Manchukuo standards, it should be a major drain on funds.”

"In fact, the real pressure is on food. There are more than one million people in the base area, and the population of schooling age, including both men and women, must be at least around 100,000. If all the rations are included, the consumption this year will be

The food supply is no less than half of what our expanded troops will need."

"It turns out that these children are at home and can't consume much of us. But with this package, I'm afraid the pressure will increase greatly. Especially when these children are growing up, they must not only eat enough, but also eat well. Do you think it can be done?

Let each student pay part of the food every month as a symbolic living expense? Even if it is only one or twenty pounds per person, all the non-staple food will be covered by us. The extremely poor families can get a certificate from the local government and the tuition will be free of charge."

Li Yanping's idea is very practical and can avoid putting too much pressure on the military region's finances. But Yang Zhen disagrees: "Political Commissar, most of the schools set up by the Puppet Manchuria in various counties are set up in towns. But we don't have them.

It has air superiority and the school is a gathering place for the population.”

"Once in future operations, the Japanese army carries out widespread and indiscriminate bombing of the base areas as it did at the beginning of this battle, there will be greater casualties. Students have no knowledge of air defense, and a single bomb may cause casualties of hundreds of students.

We can't take this risk."

"Moreover, the Jiangnan area will become a battlefield between our army and the Japanese army for a long time to come. All schools in Jiangnan, including Jiamusi, must move northward in the shortest possible time. New school buildings must be built in

It is covered by vegetation, preferably in mountainous areas. Although transportation is inconvenient, it ensures the safety of teachers and students."

"In addition, try to gather the schools together as much as possible to effectively facilitate our management. Please take the time to talk to the comrades of the Northeast Working Committee about this matter. You are brothers, so this matter should not be difficult to handle.

"As for the food needed, we will first allocate it from the military region's grain reserves. As much as is needed, we will allocate the funds. Starting next year, the several gold mines managed by the military region will allocate 500 taels per year from their output as

Dedicated education funding.”

Yang Zhen partially rejected his suggestion of gradually investing, and Li Yanping could only smile helplessly and said: "Commander, it has begun to freeze in the Xiajiang area, and it is impossible to build school buildings. If schools are to resume, they can only use them temporarily.

The original school building. I think this way, let the children in the base area use the original school building to resume classes first, and as for the construction of the school building, we will wait until next year after the civilization."

"As for centralized boarding, I think this is it. Children in rural areas pay ten kilograms of grain every month, and the military district will make up for the shortage, and three meals a day will be provided. Moreover, the Japanese army has implemented a strict blockade on us, and these grains cannot be sold.

The people have a lot of surplus grain. I think according to the living standards in the Northeast, ten kilograms of grain every month should be no problem."

"As for the children in the city, they don't have to pay for food, but they only have one lunch. They go home to eat in the morning and evening. After the entire school is relocated, the plan will be re-planned according to the situation. In addition, except for orphans and martyrs' families, students who need accommodation are exempt from the fee.

All miscellaneous expenses are covered, but the quilts and uniforms are brought by oneself. This can partially alleviate our financial constraints, so that we can save money to build a new school building in the coming year."

"Commander, I can understand your mood, but this kind of thing cannot be rushed, and we can only deal with it one at a time. We will first solve the problem of children attending classes, and we will gradually find ways to raise funds to solve the rest. As for my brother

I will talk to him there. He is currently in Luobei discussing some matters with the commander-in-chief. I think he will arrive in Xingshan within two days at the latest. You will also meet him then. My brother has told me several times

Already."

Although he is still a little dissatisfied, Yang Zhen also knows that Li Yanping is right. It is indeed impossible to build a new school building at the moment, and his previous words are indeed a bit too arbitrary. Students living in rural areas must pay ten kilograms of food a month.

For the common people, it is not a burden. According to this amount, it is much lower than the tuition fees of the so-called national schools stipulated by the Puppet Manchukuo. Thinking of this, Yang Zhen finally nodded to Li Yanping's new idea.

Agreed
