    The disintegration of the Rakshasa Kingdom caused a series of huge changes in the landscape of Eastern Europe and Central Asia.  Chen Jiayong was pacing in the yard, thinking about how China should deal with some things.  Wu Erbin and Zhang Yu came to visit him.  Wu Erbin said: "Godfather, this war is finally over." Chen Jiayong said: "War is just a fierce manifestation of political struggle. What do you think we won this time?" Wu Erbin said: "We defeated Rakshasa.  country, the northwest border was peaceful, and a large number of seizures were made. The goals of peace and punishment were achieved, and a higher prestige was established internationally." Chen Jiayong said: "I think it's not just these, but  The bankruptcy of the Cold War mentality in Eastern Europe and the disintegration of the Rakshasa state." Wu Erbin said: "This can be regarded as a political gain." Chen Jiayong said: "Yes, this armed conflict led to great changes in the Rakshasa country.  We couldn't have predicted it in advance. Now it seems that we have not only defeated the Rakshasa Kingdom, but also knocked down this political zombie. This is the biggest gain!" Wu Erbin said: "What should we do next?"  Chen Jiayong said: "Political victory brings long-term benefits. At present, the conditions of various countries in Central Asia are different, which creates an opportunity for us to expand in Central Asia. We must not let go of specific benefits. I am also thinking  Entry point." An old man and a young man started talking seriously in the secret room

    Zhang Yu was waiting in the outer room, and Hanako came over and said, "Zhang Yu, I don't know how long they have been talking for. There are attendants on duty at night. You should go to the room upstairs to sleep first." Zhang Yu said: "  No, mother-in-law, I have to wait for him." Huazi said: "They are talking about important things, and we women can't interfere with them. Why are you waiting outside? Do Erbin really dare to expose you?  Huh?" Zhangyu blushed and said with a smile: "He always said that I deserved a spanking, but he just pinched me, and my daughter-in-law liked to listen to him scold me and let him pinch me." After hearing this, Hanako thought  Seeing M-age, who her husband said was mildly masochistic, and Momoe who was tortured to death by Gangchuan, I sighed in my heart: "There are hundreds of people, hundreds of people, who are willing to fight and suffer. This is also an interesting thing."  Let's live together as husband and wife." He said, "I'll get the blanket, and you can just lie down on the sofa and wait."

    After the withdrawal of the Chinese Army was generally completed, the Northwest Asia Campaign Command held a summary and commendation meeting in Chaoyang City.  At the meeting, a large number of military cadres were commended and promoted. Wang Zhiwei, executive vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, gave a summary of the campaign. He pointed out: This campaign is the largest local war in China in decades. This punitive action will safeguard the  It has brought peace to my northwest border and long-lasting peace.  At the same time, the war has also tested our army. Facts have proved that our army is a great army that is indestructible, invincible and invincible!  It is the Great Steel Wall that protects China!

    At the small meeting, Zhou Fanhui reported: "This campaign cost 10 trillion yuan in military expenditures and wiped out two years of military expenditures. However, the losses of the Rakshasa Kingdom were very heavy. We destroyed the two major areas of Tyumen and Kazan.  8 big cities, 52 small and medium-sized cities, and 138 small towns, 2.5 million acres of forest were cut down Most of the seizures were in kind, with a discount of 60 trillion Asian dollars, and the military has received supplies worth 15 trillion yuan.  , including the captured 38 usable warships in the Caspian Sea and Aral Sea, 1,300 aircraft, 2,100 tanks, 3,450 armored vehicles, 5,800 cannons, 5,000 trucks, 80,000 war horses, and 500,000 tons of ammunition.  Most of the 100,000 tons of fuel, etc., were allocated to the border defense headquarters and the Northwest and Southwest Asia theaters. The rest of the seized materials were materials for industry, civil society, and construction, and most of them were handed over to government departments for processing."

    Meng Meng, Minister of the General Armament Department, said: "The seized destroyed tanks and vehicles amounted to more than 1.3 million tons, and they were all reheated and made into profiles at the Barnaul Steel Plant. I have negotiated with Li Liangfu of the Ministry of Ordnance Industry, and the aircraft that can be used  Tanks, etc., will continue to be in service for the time being or used for military training, and will be phased out and replaced within one year."

    Qianba said: "The Ministry of Finance has instructed: 40 trillion yuan of property, of which 5 trillion will be allocated by the Ministry of Petrochemicals to build large oil fields in Chaoyang area, and the rest will be equally divided between Chaoyang, Barnaul, Caspian Administrative Region, and Uzbekistan for  Border construction and resettlement of refugees stranded in the country. A large amount of materials are concentrated in Barnaul and are currently being allocated according to the actual needs of various regions." Chen Jiayong said: "The seized materials should not be idle or wasted at all. The equipment can be used immediately.  It must be utilized and quickly play a role in border construction.¡±

    Lin Biao said: "On the northeastern front, our troops retreated to the east bank of the Ob River. The situation on the southeastern front is somewhat special. The Cui Bashan Southwest Asia Theater reached the Balkhash area of ??Kazakhstan and actually occupied Uzbekistan. On the western front, Zhao Wei occupied the Caspian Sea  The Balkanabat area on the east coast. Due to the disintegration of the Rakshasa State, the big bosses of the Stan Republic in these areas are frantically carving up the so-called original state-owned assets. They have noisy meetings every day and have no time to take care of border issues. Therefore, our army has no  All return to the original border line.¡±

    Sister Mu said: "The Ob River is a natural border dividing line. Our border guards have nothing to say when they return to defend. But in the southeast, there is no obvious border."??The landmark was reached, so our troops did not retreat to the starting point.  But how to occupy those lands for a long time, we need to find an explanation as soon as possible.  The border guards can also make arrangements and arrangements for long-term fortification.  "

    Chen Jiayong said: "I think we should occupy it first and then move on to the next step. In this battle, we just made a fortune in Tyumen and Kazan areas. Ten or twenty years later, some towns in those places will be rebuilt and the trees will be destroyed."  will grow. Our main purpose is to punish the Rakshasa Kingdom. However, the Rakshasa Kingdom was disintegrated due to the impact of this battle. Many new countries emerged. Faced with this new situation, many things must be dealt with differently.  Forget it, we have to seize the time and deal with it as soon as possible. The war has been fought, and most people have to go back to Xi'an, but I still have to apply to stay to deal with the aftermath."

    Wu Erbin said: "The issues mentioned by the General Counsel are very important. Most of the new countries and regions that emerged after the war are related to China, and they involve political, economic, military, diplomatic and many other issues, which must be dealt with in a timely manner.  I think we should set up a "Northwest Asia post-war affairs aftermath group". It is suggested that General Counsel Chen should be the leader, and Mao Anyen, Yang Yong, Chen Tailang, Doma and Qiangba should be the deputy leaders.  Ya's aftermath has been properly handled." Everyone agreed unanimously.

    The Northwest Asia War Command was abolished, and before Wu Erbin and others returned to Xi'an, the Northwest Asia War Zone and Chaoyang Administrative Region held a grand reception in Chaoyang City.  The scene was very lively.  War Zone Commander Wan Changyuan and Deputy Chief Menhe, Chaoyang Administrative Region Chief Han Chaoyang, and Barnaul Administrative Region Chief Yang Zhirong all delivered enthusiastic speeches at the reception.  The general idea is that we are determined to guard the border, defend the border, and build the border well.  In his speech, Wu Erbin also greatly praised the local government and once again stated that the central government would not withhold any part of the local government's share of what was captured in the battle and use it to consolidate and build the border.  We must build Northern Xinjiang into Jiangnan of the Northern Kingdom!  His speech was met with bursts of warm applause.

    On the other side, Chen Jiayong and a group of old people were drinking and talking over tea.  Li Zongren said: "After I retreated, I always fought on the sand table at home. This time I came out and it was really fun. I fought a big battle again." Chen Jiayong said: "Brother De Ling, don't follow me.  Going to Central Asia?" Li Zongren said with a smile: "I can't do those things you do with your mother-in-law and mother-in-law. I plan to go to West Asia, the Middle East and Northeast Africa with Lin Biao to inspect the defense of the troops." Yang Sen said: "  I have been cutting down trees in the Urals for more than a month. What a sin!" Chen Jiayong said to him: "When trees grow into useful materials, they can be cut down. Are they useful? If you want to make up for it, there are still many deserts in Central Asia.  Just follow me and plant trees there." Yang Sen happily agreed.  Liang Xingyang said: "I plan to travel to Central and Western Asia, the Middle East, Africa and other places for a year with Taoist Han to promote our Chinese Taoist culture." Chen Jiayong was very supportive, saying: "Taoism is one of the essences of our Chinese culture and should be promoted.  . Han Ping, I hope your Taoist disciples will uphold justice among the people, punish evil and promote good, and help the local government maintain public order." Han Pinghe Shi Weiwei.  Fu Zuoyi said: "Our Poverty Alleviation Foundation has to go to Central Asia and West Asia to inspect and contribute to changing the face of poverty there." Liu Wenhui also expressed his intention to go.  Chen Jiayong said happily: "Okay, okay! Let us old friends get busy again."

    Chen Jiayong led a group of people to the Rakshasa refugee camp on the outskirts of Chaoyang City. The leader, Gregor, greeted them. Chen Jiayong said: "The Rakshasa country has become the Russian country again. Why haven't you gone back yet?" Gregor, the leader, greeted him.  Gao Dao: "Only nearly 10,000 of the 30,000 people in the town have gone back The rest want to stay. I don't want to leave this town either, because there is no political terror here, so there is no need to be afraid; there is no cold or hunger, milk  Yes, there is bread; life here is warm, everyone is united and friendly; we are working happily, building our new home Can you allow us to stay?"

    Chen Jiayong said: "This place is vast and sparsely populated. Of course we welcome you to stay and participate in the construction. But as usual, you have to become a Chinese citizen." Gregor said: "That's what we want! Can you bring your relatives here?  "Chen Jiayong said: "Of course. However, we do not have public ownership such as collective farms or people's communes here. The past few months were extraordinary times. Everyone worked collectively for survival, and the government also invested a large amount of money to ensure  Everyone¡¯s life. In the past few months, the value you have created accounts for about 30% of the investment. In other words, the houses built can be privately owned by you at a discount. I think a town can be established here, called Xinsheng Town.  Well. The mayor and deputy mayor are elected by the people of the town. The nearby cultivated land, grassland, and forest can be assigned to the town and distributed to households according to their capita for independent operation. The briquette factory, textile factory,  The tannery and small train station can be restructured into a shareholder-owned enterprise. Everyone takes shares, with the government accounting for 51% and employees accounting for 49%. In addition to repaying the government's initial investment, the town's income will be used in the town after paying the national profits and taxes.  public welfare construction." After hearing this, Gregor thought for a while and said in great surprise: "This is not doingCapitalism?  "Chen Jiayong immediately thought of later generations during the Mao era who called the large number of people who starved to death "natural disasters" during difficult times, the crime of restricting logistics as "speculation," and the restriction of farmers raising chickens as "cutting the tail of capitalism," etc. Later, there was no other way.  , also called "speculation" as "long-distance trafficking", the "black market" as the "free market", and the "high price" of the free market as "bargaining" He paused and said casually: "I call this doctrine 'market'  Economism', socialism and capitalism take it all!  Gregor said with great reverence: "The special envoy is really wise, our town will resolutely comply with your orders!"  "

    Han Chaoyang said to Chen Jiayong: "Captain, can't you just appoint a mayor?" Chen Jiayong said: "No! During the constitutional period, it was the right of every citizen to elect civil servants, because they paid taxes and had to support civil servants. You  In the past, I was appointed. It was a mission of a frontier official during the war, but in the future, I will have to hold office through public election. Isn¡¯t that how Chairman Wu Erbin was elected."

    Mao Angen quickly arranged for the election.  In the first round of auditions, all residents in the town over the age of 16 cast their votes at five voting points.  There are 35 people who received more than 1,000 votes.  In the second round of voting, 15 people received more than 3,000 votes, from which five civil servants will be selected.  At noon, Chen Jiayong asked Mao Angen to use the method of selecting the village chief in Songjiazhuang. Everyone could see and supervise that the voters and candidates did not meet (secret voting) to throw beans into the bowl. The top 5 who received the most beans would  The name is the town's civil servant.  At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the five civil servants in the town were elected. In order of the majority of votes, they were: "acting mayor" Gregor, town instructor Niu Yingjun, railway station director Sarif, security captain Onev, briquettes  Factory worker Vasil.

    Chen Jiayong has been busy for most of the day and is very happy to see that the election results have come out.  Mao Angen announced to the voters: "The first place, Gregor, a Russian nationality, was elected as the mayor and is responsible for the town's affairs; the second place, Niu Yingjun, a Han nationality, was elected as the executive deputy mayor, in charge of industry and finance;  The third, Sarif, a Belarusian, was elected as the deputy mayor, in charge of agriculture and civil affairs; the fourth, Onev, a Tatar, was in charge of public security and health; the fifth, Vasil, a Germanic, served as the chairman of the trade union  . The town committee is elected every three years. Public officials such as factories, hospitals, schools, and police stations in the town are selected and appointed by the town committee." Han Chaoyang was so smart. He went up and said: "Public referendum, the civil servants of the town government are chosen by everyone.  When they come out, civil servants must act in accordance with the law and serve the townspeople. Every citizen is a supervisor."

    The citizens of Xinsheng Town elected their own town government, and everyone was very happy and held a bonfire party.  Mao Angen said to Chen Jiayong: "Uncle, I'm afraid this is a pilot project. Will the grassroots political power in the new district be chosen in this way in the next step?" Chen Jiayong said: "Yes, this is a model. There are still 1.2 million people stranded in the border.  , 2.3 million people have fled the armed conflict in the past few months, and there are nearly 10 million people in Uzbekistan, as well as many neighboring countries. We must focus on stabilizing the people. The grassroots elected by the people  The political power is the most stable, and of course it must be based on democracy and the rule of law." Everyone agreed.

    (Off-topic, not related to military literature: Some readers criticized the protagonist in the article for not selling "drugs" in his early years of hard work, pointing out how a "big drug lord" could later become the chairman of the government. The author felt very complicated, and only smiled bitterly in his heart  .Poison is poison. Everyone in the world knows it. Many people know about the highly toxic substances in animals, plants and chemistry: We have never seen the "Crane Crown Red", "Five Step Down" and so on in martial arts legends, but they cannot be used in reality.  Potassium hydride, rat poison, highly toxic pesticides in the mouth, as well as being bitten by a venomous snake, will immediately kill people After the poisonous sea, everyone is still very afraid. However, there is another kind of "poison" and the poison of medicine  Related, one of them is opium. The author has described it in Chapter 88 and Chapter 93 of Volume 2. When it blooms, it is very beautiful and tempting. According to my grandmother, its young vegetable tips are used to stir-fry  When eaten, the fragrance is better than rapeseed moss. Its fruit has been cut by people, and they shed tears in pain, but the crystallization of the tears is still tempting people. In an era when there was a lack of medical treatment, its tears served as a kind of  Medicines can relieve pain, treat abdominal pain, headaches, diarrhea, and dozens of other medical effects. According to my grandmother [if she were still alive, she would be 112 years old. She would not have lived that long. It is a pity that she died of starvation in her 60s.  natural disaster] said: In fact, in those days, almost every family of workers, peasants and gentry in Sichuan had cigarette paste (except those who were addicted to cigarette dens). My uncle often had stomachaches when he was a child, so my grandmother would light up a puff of cigarette smoke and put it on him.  Spray a few mouthfuls on your belly button, and the pain will go away. Just like every house now has some pills with weird names such as gou, riao, xuan, acid, Luo, Fu, Xing but they are actually just ordinary pills.  At home, it is used to treat headaches, brain fever, stomachache, diarrhea, etc. So why is opium with medicinal value poisonous? Why did the government strictly ban it later? The author has always been puzzled.

    In the early 1980s [probably 1984-85], the author saw an article of about 50,000 words in "Xinhua Digest"?Expert long-form papers.  He first defined that opium is not a poison that can kill people if eaten in one bite, but a medicine that can cure diseases.  Secondly, definition: all medicines have three kinds of poison. If you take a certain medicine for a long time, it may damage the kidneys if it heals the liver, or damage the spleen if it heals the kidneys.  The same goes for opium. Excessive consumption of opium for a long time will cause the body's immunity to decline, and even eventually lead to organ failure and death [such is the tragic fate of Gang Chuan and Bei Hui in the article].  Experts point out that opium, like drugs such as pethidine and marijuana, should be restricted in the treatment of patients. Otherwise, it will form a "drug addiction" and enter the body's metabolism to form an indispensable drug.  ingredients.  At this time, opium was still just a "drug addiction" in the human body. That is, as long as there were sufficient sources of opium and good living and eating habits, opium could not be called "poison".  Moreover, the taste of opium is much more fragrant than cigarettes and dry tobacco. After smoking, it makes people feel ecstasy, relieves fatigue, and can even enter the realm of fantasy. From a biological point of view, there is nothing wrong with it.  The expert added: In the Qing Dynasty, most of the princes and nobles smoked opium because they had sufficient sources of opium and the guarantee of life and nutrition. Of course, they could "feel like a fairy" and do whatever they wanted in their hallucinations.  Wang Jialie's "double-gun soldiers" in Guizhou were caused by the environment where tobacco was abundant in Guizhou at that time and both soldiers and civilians smoked it. However, the soldiers could not win the battle by relying on the temporary excitement after smoking tobacco.  According to veterans of the Red Army at that time: In the Red Army, which lacked medical treatment and medicine at that time, cadres at regiment level and above who had been injured were allowed to smoke opium to relieve pain, so that many became addicted later.  Lower-level officers and soldiers were not allowed to smoke opium, and there was no such thing. All seizures belonged to the public.

    Opium also had a function back then - serving as currency.  According to old Red Army soldiers, when they attacked local tyrants, among the valuables they confiscated, apart from gold and silver, they also included opium.  In addition to its medicinal value, tobacco soil has also become an important military resource for the Red Army - it can be exchanged for much-needed grain, salt, cloth, etc. in the so-called white areas outside the red area.  [If we follow this inference and the Red Army also took drugs and sold drugs, Mao Mao would be considered a big drug lord. How could he become the Red Sun later?  How can you become the chairman!  No one of the big bosses in the British government was fired for selling opium to China, because opium at this time became tainted with political color.  ]

    That expert pointed out at that time: Opium has become a "poison" and should be a "poison" that harms society.  Its harm far exceeds its own toxicity.  As governments of various countries have implemented strict drug bans for a long time, those things have become "rare and valuable". They should be luxury consumer goods that belong to the rich and powerful. Ordinary people should never touch them!  He gave an example: The average price of 1 gram of heroin made from opium is 70 yuan [Note: It is said that it has now risen to more than 1,000 yuan per gram], and the average monthly salary of Chinese people is only 50 yuan.  A normal consumption of 5 grams per day would cost 350 yuan, multiplied by 365 days, which is an astronomical figure of 127,750 yuan per year. Under the premise of ensuring good living habits and nutrition, and strengthening physical exercise, one can age and die like a normal person.  But what about the money smoked over the decades?  Even the gold and silver mountains have to be absorbed!  As a result, drug addicts either absorb all their property or everything else, or engage in drug abuse, theft, and robbery, causing social harm.

    That expert¡¯s article has been published for nearly 20 years. It explains the objectivity of the harm of drugs from a medical perspective, which is very alarming and is still fresh in my memory.  The author did not avoid the so-called drug problem in his writing.  Because the disaster brought by the Opium War to the Chinese people was so tragic!  Why not let the barbarians have a taste!  If there is anything inappropriate in my nagging, I ask readers to correct me.  )
