Du Mingyang's income from the United States, together with the money from selling aviation kerosene, finally helped the border region government get rid of the financial crisis. Although the money is not too much, it is still enough to maintain normal expenses.
So the border region government, which finally no longer had to worry about money, devoted all its energy to construction. With the various industrial equipment and production lines ordered by Li Hui being put in place one after another, the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region set off a new round of construction frenzy. A steelmaking plant with an annual output of 50,000 tons, two cement plants with an annual output of 100,000 tons, and three fertilizer plants with an annual output of 150,000 tons started construction at the same time. New coking plants, carbon refineries, coal processing plants, man-made fiber plants, synthetic rubber plants, pesticide plants, and penicillin plants also officially broke ground.
In terms of military industry, in addition to the factories that have already been put into operation, there are two gunpowder factories that can produce three tons of high explosives per day, a bullet factory with three 7.62mm caliber bullet production lines with a daily output of 50,000 rounds, and three 56-shot bullet factories. , Two rifle manufacturing plants with 63 and a half production lines are also accelerating the construction of factories. Once these new factories are fully put into operation, the Border Region Government will be completely self-sufficient in light arms and ammunition.
If you want to get rich, build roads first, and the bigwigs in the border area know this truth well. While building the factory, a large amount of manpower and material resources were allocated to comprehensively upgrade the roads leading to major industrial areas in Yan'an. These roads are all constructed according to the standards of later generations, that is, the roadbed is first compacted with heavy machinery, and after being paved with asphalt, it is repeatedly compacted with a road roller. Some important roads are even directly paved with high-standard cement. The road paved by this standard has a service life of at least 20 years. Considering the unique geographical environment of the Loess Plateau, Li Hui also asked the construction workers to plant poplar trees on both sides of the road while paving the road. This will not only prevent the erosion of the roadbed caused by water loss, but also Effectively reduce the violent and damaged pavement caused by sun exposure. At the same time, these boulevards also add several beautiful landscapes to the desolate Loess Plateau.
While intensively carrying out industrial construction and infrastructure construction, the leaders of the central government have not forgotten the training of various technical arms. After all, as the tanks, armored vehicles, planes, and artillery purchased by Li Hui arrived one after another, these big bosses were all happy, and at the same time, they also clearly realized that in future wars, these powerful technical weapons will be the mainstay. up. But there is no one who can operate it, no matter how many weapons there are, it's useless, hey, don't say anything, let's recruit more people and step up training.
Therefore, as the troops transferred from various base areas arrived in northern Shaanxi one after another, the major military academies in Yan'an, which had enough students, set off a new round of enrollment frenzy.
With the orders of the bosses, these schools will start recruiting a large number of students regardless of whether they can pretend or not. What? If there are not enough teachers, then let each instructor lead some more students, and if it is not enough, they will gather together for big classes. What? There is not such a big classroom, and the sky is high and the land is vast in northern Shaanxi. Wouldn¡¯t it be okay to just let the students go to the outside to attend classes? What? Not enough student housing? Then go to the logistics department and ask for more containers. Anyway, no difficulty can stop their enrollment plan.
But then a problem arose. Because these colleges have similar requirements for recruiting students - in addition to good physical fitness, they also need to have a certain cultural foundation. But in China at that time, there were not many people who could read and write. There are even fewer in the Eighth Route Army. Moreover, due to long-term malnutrition, there are not too many soldiers with good physical fitness. So recruiting, recruiting, the major military academies began to grab qualified students.
In order to allow their colleges to recruit more students, these principals are not willing to make concessions. In addition, they are all titans who have fought for more than ten years, and each of them has a bad temper. After a few good words, they started to quarrel, and then they lined up tables and stared at each other. I guess if the prime minister hadn't heard the news If they arrived in time, it was really possible for these gangsters to perform martial arts in front of many instructors and students.
In the end, it was the Prime Minister who spoke and set the enrollment rules: "The Air Force is the main force in future wars, so all qualified students in the future must be selected by the Aviation Academy first, then the Armored Forces Academy, and finally the rest. To the Artillery Academy!"
As soon as this remark came out, the principal of the Aviation Academy was naturally very satisfied, and the principal of the Armored Academy had no objection. Although the principal of the Artillery Academy was not happy, the Prime Minister had already spoken, so he naturally couldn't say anything.
As a result, major colleges began to re-select candidates according to this standard. Since then, this rule has been continued, and has become the admissions norms for major military academies of our army in the future.
?It was originally related to the size and teaching staff of the aviation school. The existing trainees are already at the limit of what they can train, but they have been chased and bombed by the national army and devil planes for more than ten years.The principal of the aviation school wanted to form a powerful air force for the Eighth Route Army. In addition, after Li Hui brought those flight simulators, the training of the students became faster and safer.
Therefore, with the support of the prime minister, the principal of the aviation school became rude and directly picked out 500 qualified students.
Seeing that the aviation school picked out so many people in one go, the principal of the Armored Force Academy naturally had no reason to be polite. Anyway, the fifty or so Type 59 tanks and twenty Type 62 tanks that Li Hui transported this time are most enough for their training.
The aviation school picked out 500 people, how many people do you think the Armored Forces Academy took? Well, let's not keep it a secret, it has tripled, 1,500 people!
Seeing that the two colleges in front together took away 2,000 people. As soon as the principal of the gun school gritted his teeth, he immediately ordered the rest of the people down. That's more than 3,000 people. This is a good thing. With him doing this, the Eighth Route Army will not be able to develop artillery even if it doesn't want to.
After being made such a fuss by the three major colleges, the principal of the telecommunications school quit immediately. Although this communication soldier cannot go to the front line, his role is not less than that of those front-line soldiers, and even far exceeds that. After all, for modern warfare, communication is the first element. The role played in the army is often much greater than that of a company or even a battalion of combat troops.
In fact, the principal of the telecommunications school is too anxious. The prime minister who has been in charge of our army's communications and intelligence work since the Shanghai period, how can he not understand the importance of the communications soldier. Sure enough, after knowing the intention of the principal of the Telecommunications School, the Prime Minister told him a great news. It turned out that the prime minister had already transferred 300 well-educated civilian cadres from various troops, and the principal who was specially prepared to send them to the school had nothing to say. hear this. The principal of the telecommunications school jumped up and left.
Of course, in addition to the training of these technical arms, the big bosses in the central government have not forgotten to educate the people in the border areas. After all, a country, a nation wants to develop and prosper. Culture is the most basic element. The reason why China has been impoverished and weak for a hundred years, and is regarded as a free market by those Western powers, who can come and go when they want, and grab whatever they want, is because the people in China are illiterate - they can't even write. If they recognize it, don't expect them to learn any new science and technology, so as to develop and strengthen the country.
With the great investment of the border region government, two or three public primary schools were established in every township in northern Shaanxi, and at least one public middle school was opened in every county. All children and teenagers aged 6 to 18, regardless of gender, are required to attend school. Considering that a 12-year-old child could become the main labor force of the family, in order to reduce the burden on the common people and encourage everyone to send their children to school, all public schools not only do not charge any miscellaneous fees, but also pay for each student every day. They all provide a nutritious lunch, and if there are more than two school-age children in the family, the government will also provide a monthly subsidy of 3 to 5 yuan.
As soon as this policy came out, it immediately received enthusiastic responses. When they heard that sending their children to study, not only does it cost nothing, but they can also receive a lot of subsidies every month. Even parents who don¡¯t understand it immediately cheered and led their children to the school to enroll. up.
In just one week, public middle schools and elementary schools everywhere are full. As a result, those principals and teachers who were concurrently served by civilian cadres had to find ways to expand the school building and manufacture tables and chairs.
In fact, many military leaders with mud legs still have opinions on this kind of spending huge sums of money on education. Their reason is also very simple: "We just don't know a single big character, so we are still senior commanders. It is not by reading and writing that we fight devils. If we have this money, we might as well buy more weapons and equip a few more weapons." What about the regiment!"
?The words of these military chiefs represented the thoughts of the vast majority of Chinese people at that time: The three generations of my family¡¯s ancestors and their combined characters did not have a basket of words. Why don¡¯t we live a long life, marry a wife, have children, and carry on the family line?
For these opponents, the chairman, the prime minister and other big bosses naturally persuaded them with kind words, telling them the benefits of improving the people's cultural diplomas. However, some of these people were quite stubborn, and in the end they really made a mistake, and the big bosses had no choice but to use their trump cards: "This is a decision of the central government. If you understand it, you must implement it, and if you don't understand it, you must implement it!"
Therefore, the nine-year compulsory education has become the national policy of New China decades ahead of schedule.
Ten years of raising trees, a hundred years of educating people! Merit in the present age, benefit in the future! Thanks to these bigwigs who have discerned the bead and tried their best to overcome all opinions, they have laid a solid foundation for the rapid development of New China!
