The surrounding fields are vast and dotted with stars. The only sound between the sky and the earth is the wind blowing on the treetops and the sound of the turbid current lapping the shore. The swaying bonfire illuminates every face reddened by strong wine in flickering light, and the crackling sound of burning wood is accompanied by
explode
Strings of sparks rising up mixed with green smoke, tall and carefully carved tombstones stand tall, and one can quietly listen to the reminiscences of the old people and a group of soldiers who fought bloody battles on this land, and talk to their heart's content.
An Yi, whose whole body was soaked to the skin and then dried by bonfires and spirits, miraculously went away from his high fever, but his mood at the moment was far heavier than when he was ill. The simple words of Uncle Maogen and the elders revealed that
An Yi’s deep love for the country and his deep attachment to the place where his ancestors have thrived for generations made him
I have given up the idea of bringing tens of thousands of villagers from Wuhe to southern Sichuan. Under the endless floods is the land where the villagers have grown up for generations. This is a rare and prosperous land in the world. In the small bodies of the honest and dull villagers, there is flowing
It is the tenacity and persistence that has been running for thousands of years.
An Yi and his brothers asked the villagers what they needed most right now. The villagers who had nothing left only asked for one thing, food.
According to Uncle Maogen and the elders, the land will be exposed in less than half a month. If you work harder, you can plant the seeds for this winter and next spring. The only pain is before the harvest in autumn and winter. If you can survive it, you can survive.
If you don’t have meat to eat, you can catch fish, but if you don’t have oil and salt, you will die in three to several months.
There are no people. In the past hundred years, only those who have been drowned by floods within a hundred miles, and only those who can't bite the bullet and starve to death. As long as they are willing to move, they can basically survive. As for the house, if there is no more, you can build it again. As long as you survive this winter,
It will be better next year and everything will get better gradually.
After discussing with the brothers, An Yi decided to give each of the villagers within a hundred miles a radius of one hundred catties of grain, five catties of oil, and five catties of salt, regardless of age, and thirty oceans per head. As for farm tools and cattle,
, the folks in each village and town will discuss the number of reports, and they will be delivered within a month.
The old people were trembling with excitement, but in the end they politely declined Da Yang, saying that there was enough food. They had never been so lucky in every major disaster for thousands of years. As long as they didn't starve to death, everything would be fine. In An Yi and
At the insistence of the brothers, Uncle Maogen said embarrassedly on behalf of the elders that if possible, he would send some "cement" to each household. Two bags per household would be enough. With "
"Cement", the foundations of each household's house will be much stronger. If there is a flood, the house will not be washed away at once. As for the money, there is no need to worry. There are stones and clay all over the ground. After the flood, there will be firewood and grass everywhere.
If you don’t have fuel to cook rice and burn bricks and tiles, all you have to do is work together to help each other. No amount of money is enough. You have to build everything brick by brick by yourself, so you will cherish it.
"Cement" is cement. Nowadays, an ordinary Anjia Army soldier can buy three tons of cement with his monthly military salary. The villagers who devoted all their lives and even their lives to the Anyi family's battle have experienced a major disaster that has only happened once in decades.
, after their homes were gone, the only request they made was to give each family two bags if possible.
None of the generals of the Anjia Army spoke again. They picked up the wine, silently respected the elderly, and drank large bowls of it until they were so drunk that they fell asleep on the ground. No one had the nerve to say any generous words, because the generals
We are all children of poor families, from lower class backgrounds, and we all know the ups and downs contained in every word of the elders.
In the morning of the next day, An Yi and his brothers took a boat away with the reluctant wave of the villagers. A series of large inland river cargo ships loaded with food and various supplies came continuously under the tow of steamers. In the afternoon
, a regiment of engineering troops left Yiyi with enough equipment.
Chang took a boat down and rushed to Wuhe Gupei Town at the speed of rushing to the battlefield. Three thousand-ton freighters parked at the old Nanchang wharf began to nervously load steel and cement. Large transport planes in the sky were still flying.
The stop is between northern Jiangsu, northern Anhui and Xufu.
Chang Baofang, deputy superintendent of the Anjia Army Station, stayed at the cemetery at Tonghekou and lived with Uncle Maogen in the thatched cottage with huge logs as pillars. He packed the major general's clothes into his bag and asked Uncle Maogen to
Putting on a sleeveless and double-breasted Tang suit, he began to bear the burden of roads, canals and water in the four towns of Gupei.
Regarding the reconstruction work of private houses, the guarantee he made to the brothers was: as long as one family of villagers has not moved into a new house, as long as there is a section of the main road between the four towns that is not paved, and as long as the blocked rivers and water conservancy ditches are not drained out.
La water, I, Chang Baofang, will stay at the brothers’ cemetery for one day!
Compared with the 30 million people in seven provinces, the total people in the four towns of Gupei are only more than 20,000. An Jiajun can help the villagers in the four towns of Gupei to rebuild their homes and live happily at the touch of a finger as quickly as possible, but there are still
What should we do with the 30 million disaster victims in more than 60 counties in seven provinces?
But now An Yi is no longer confused at all. He gained great insights during the trip to Wuhe, understood many things, and became extremely relaxed and calm.
The disaster relief fund Anhui Province received from the central government was 500,000 yuan, which was not as much as the monthly military salary expenditure of 40,000 troops stationed in Anqing. Jiangsu Province was slightly better. Chen Guofu, who had someone in the DPRK, secured 900,000 yuan for the victims.
In order to put an end to exploitation at all levels, the conscientious Chen Guofu exchanged all the money for grain and farm tools and distributed them to various counties.
An Yi returned to Bengbu and immediately held discussions with officials from the two provinces. In the name of the Southern Sichuan Enterprise Group, he donated two million yuan in disaster relief funds to each province.
Donated 30,000 tons of rice and medicine worth 1 million yuan to each of the two provinces.
Chen Guofu, Liu Zhenhua and all the officials under their command were indescribably grateful and expressed their gratitude repeatedly on behalf of the government and the victims. An Yi was very calm, politely bid farewell to the officials of the two provinces, took a plane back to the Syrian government, and politely refused Chen Guofu's urging to return to Nanjing.
On the same day, two Junkers JU52 three-engine military transport aircraft attached to the 17th Army and the 24th Army landed in Kaifeng and Jinan respectively.
Gu Changfeng, Commander of the 24th Army, handed An Yi's autographed letter to Liu Zhi at Kaifeng Airport. Liu Zhi, who was disturbed by the nearly ten million displaced victims, was extremely grateful after reading the letter and sent Gu Chang off.
He immediately ordered the Zhengzhou Railway Section, military depots, and garrison logistics troops to make all preparations. Within seven days, all the 50,000 tons of grain transported from Hukou Military Depot to Hankou Wharf must be transported to various disaster areas in Henan.
Han Fuqu of Jinan was helpless in the face of tens of millions of victims who were heading south. Every time he arrived at a disaster site, he cursed the central government for its incompetence. Suddenly, he received an emergency telegram from the headquarters of the Anjia Army and rushed to the airport. Not long after, Hu Jialin and other troops of the 17th Army
The general flew to the airport.
Han Fuqu read the letter with confusion and was immediately overjoyed. He grabbed Hu Jialin and left, saying loudly, "Brother Hu, don't think about leaving until you have eight bowls of drinks with me today." Hu Jialin said politely and told him to rush back to Baoding as soon as possible. Han Fuqu immediately got excited.
Yell a few words, he
The guards carried out the order without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, more than thirty burly men surrounded Hu Jialin's special plane. When one of the captains saw that the pilot was about to turn, he simply lay down under the front wheel of the plane. The pilot was so frightened that he immediately braked and shut down the engine.
.
Hebei is under the jurisdiction of He Yingqin. An Yi only needs to hand over the relief materials to Hu Jialin's 17th Army, and then provide disaster relief in the name of the 17th Army. Jiangxi does not need An Yi's communist mentality and has fine traditions and kindness.
At the call of Chairman Xiong Shihui, the concerned wealthy gentry and people of the province actively donated funds. The abundant disaster relief donations stabilized the order of the disaster-stricken areas in the province and ensured the lives of the victims. Zhou Chongan alone donated 500,000 yuan on behalf of Jiangnan Group.
The disaster in Zhejiang was mild, so provincial chairman Huang Shaohong basically didn't have to worry.
The most urgent person now is Hubei Provincial Chairman Zhang Qun. Millions of victims in eastern and southeastern Hubei are homeless. The budget for disaster relief is as high as 6 million, but the central government has only allocated 300,000. An Yi responded
Don't care, don't care, the reason is
Zhang Qun wrote to the central government twice in three months, demanding that Anjiajun's Yichang garrison base and water transportation and anti-drug and anti-smuggling rights be taken back. The exact news that An Yi received was that Wang Jingwei had agreed and was preparing to hold a relevant meeting to discuss it immediately after the flood.
An Yi is not anxious about this, and he is not gambling with the lives of the victims, but the Hubei Provincial Government has the money. An Yi's Yichang Anti-Narcotics and Anti-Smuggling Bureau pays taxes of up to 3 million to the Hubei Provincial Government every year, but
I still don’t know where the money has been used, so An Yi wants to see if Zhang Qun dares to dig out his predecessor’s corruption accounts.
I also want to see who dares to take away the Anjiajun's territory. Now let alone Wang Jingwei, even Chiang Kai-shek can't do it, unless he gathers heavy troops to fight a battle to drive away the Anjiajun. As for the victims, if they don't have food, they will drift down the river.
They fled to Jiujiang and the wealthy old Nanchang. Xiong Shihui and Zhang Qun were both leaders of political science factions, so they could still help with this little help.
In late August, when the regular session of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was about to be held, An Yi, who had almost cut off contact with the Central Committee, flew to Simao, southern Yunnan, in the name of "cultivation". As soon as he left, Zhang Zhizhong, Chairman Chiang's special representative,
List
Lifu flew to Xufu and learned that An Yi had taken a special plane to southern Yunnan yesterday to recuperate in the pleasant climate and fresh air. After declining all visitors, he had no choice but to fly back to Nanjing to return to Chiang Kai-shek.
Chiang Kai-shek was not angry. The organizational adjustment of the Military Commission was imminent, and nearly half of the organizations, including the General Staff Headquarters, needed to be merged and reorganized.
Under the strong request of Wang Jingwei and the constant warnings from the Communist Party of China, An Yi, the military staff officer who "seriously damaged the friendly diplomatic relations between China and Japan, provoked the Sino-Japanese military conflict in North China, and had a negative impact on the healthy development of Sino-Japanese relations"
Director, his position is destined to be lost. Various departments including the central government have requested that the committee be abolished.
The motion including Chairman Xu's government visit was also formally put forward, and received strong support from third parties in the Communist Party such as Sun Ke. This news has undoubtedly reached An Yi's ears, and An Yi is conflicted about it.
It is inevitable that Chiang Kai-shek did not know how to arrange for his beloved and hated protégé for a while.
However, many affairs of the central government will definitely not work without An Yi's participation. Let's not talk about the suppression of the Communist Party, let alone the imminent financial and monetary reforms. Just the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway that has been approved and will start construction early next year must have An Yi's
Support works.
Now that the Sichuan-Guizhou-Yunnan Railway built by An Yi at his own expense is in trial operation, the Xufu to Ziliujing (Zigong) railway is basically fully connected except for two steel frame bridges that are still undergoing final construction. But An Yi just
The reluctance to extend the railway more than 30 kilometers north to connect the Neijiang River has caused a lot of discussion and anxiety from the central and local governments. Putting aside the political impact, how many supplies and materials will be transported from southern Sichuan after the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Highway starts.
!
After repeated weighing, Chiang Kai -shek was not in a hurry. He also wanted to see how Wang Jingwei handled it?
Once Wang Jingwei is not handled well, he is likely to be ugly by An Yi and cannot step down. How can he say that Chiang Kai -shek is full of profit and harmless.
