Li Guosheng nodded with satisfaction, and continued to speak under the increasingly hot gazes of the two people: "In this case, we have settled on this method. Next, let's continue to discuss my second method "
After turning his attention to He Shiyan, Li Guosheng asked with interest: "Mr. He, just in your report just now, I really want to hear that many people on the front line of the Yellow River want to join our National Defense Force. You know, We Chinese have a saying since ancient times, 'Good iron cannot be nailed, and good men should not be soldiers.' I want to know why the people here want to be soldiers so much"
"Of course our National Defense Forces have good welfare benefits and have always won battles" He Shiyan answered matter-of-factly.
"After entering the defense zone, in order to open up the situation as soon as possible, I used some of the people-friendly methods that our National Defense Forces had used. Not to mention, the effect was surprisingly good. Not only were the people no longer afraid of our National Defense Forces, they were also full of confidence in our National Defense Forces. Curiosity, asking about the cold and warmth.¡±
Li Guosheng smiled and interjected: "Then you order the troops to take this opportunity to publicize the various welfare benefits of our National Defense Force"
After his work was affirmed by Li Guosheng, He Shiyan's expression of excitement on his face became even stronger, and he replied loudly.
"Yes, the main seat"
¡°Not only did it publicize our benefits and treatment, but also publicized the various achievements of our National Defense Forces since its establishment, making the National Defense Forces gradually become a heroic force in the hearts of the people, and they are proud to join the National Defense Forces.¡±
"In addition, I have also opened other areas of the general camp except the arsenal and other important units. All areas are opened to the people around the station and everyone is allowed to visit. And the troops are allowed to conduct training openly"
"After this series of events, the people around the station know that not only can you get generous military pay by joining the National Defense Forces, but your family members as military dependents can also get varying degrees of relief from food taxes. What's more important is that even if you fight in the future, Even if he died on the battlefield, he would receive a generous pension that would be enough for his family to survive for the rest of their lives"
"However, because of the military discipline of our National Defense Forces, although everyone is very enthusiastic about joining the National Defense Forces. However, I did not nod in agreement. I just simply registered the young adults who wanted to join the National Defense Forces."
He Shiyan¡¯s series of actions will undoubtedly play a very positive role in the second method he will take action next. Thinking of this, Li Guosheng couldn't help but cast a glance full of praise at He Shiyan in front of him. At the same time, I also remember this very wise major general in my heart.
Of course, He Shiyan didn¡¯t know that at this moment. He has left a deep impression on Li Guosheng's heart.
What¡¯s more important is that it won¡¯t take long for a promotion order from the National Defense Forces Headquarters to be sent to him.
Seeing the growing smile on Li Guosheng's face, he was so excited that he subconsciously asked: "Chief, is your second solution related to recruiting troops"
"Yes, it's recruiting troops" Li Guosheng affirmed with a smile.
Facing Commander He Shiyan, he said with a mysterious face: "All the methods just mentioned were just to disintegrate the mass base of the Red Party. And my next method is to target the Red Army of the Red Party"
Two days later, a notice appeared at the gates of the major military camps of the National Defense Forces stationed along the Yellow River.
Not only that, local officials also went from village to village to inform the people in their jurisdiction of a very important news.
"In order to relieve the pressure on the strength of the National Defense Forces, the National Defense Forces General Headquarters has ordered that five thousand new recruits will be recruited within the jurisdiction All local young adults who are willing to join the National Defense Forces. Report to the nearest military camp quickly and meet the various requirements issued by the National Defense Forces. After meeting the recruitment conditions, you can join the National Defense Forces and become a recruit of the National Defense Forces"
Hearing this news, most young people in the district could not help but think of a picture that made their blood boil.
Wearing a camouflage training uniform, carrying a rifle that he has never seen before, he is training at the training ground with a heroic appearance
Of course, this is just one aspect that attracts young people.
In the eyes of the lowest level people in China, serving as a soldier and eating food is a matter of course. Therefore, if you want to join the army, the first thing that comes to mind is the luxurious benefits provided by the National Defense Forces.
"Ordinary recruits, also known as private soldiers of the National Defense Force, receive six oceans per month as military pay. After being promoted to corporal in the field force, they receive eight oceans per month. As his service time reaches two years, after he is promoted from corporal to sergeant, he earns eight oceans per month. Military pay will be directly increased to twelve yuan."
"Of course, if you perform well in the army and are promoted to sergeant squad leader, your monthly military salary will become fifteen yuan. If you have the opportunity, you can be promoted to lieutenant, then your monthly military salary will beThe growth rate has doubled, and there is also the opportunity to be recommended to enter the National Defense University for study and further study"
??In other words, just the military salary received after joining the National Defense Forces, the military salary received by one person in the family as a soldier can equal the income of the family working hard in the fields for a year.
This is only the second benefit of joining the National Defense Forces.
¡°As long as one member of the family joins the army for ordinary people under the jurisdiction of the National Defense Forces, their family members can receive a preferential policy of exempting 500 kilograms of food tax per year during the entire service period.
Compared to military pay, five hundred kilograms of grain is not a lot. However, in the eyes of people who have been living at the lowest level, five hundred kilograms of grain can fully satisfy one person in the family for a year.
Therefore, as soon as the recruitment notice of the National Defense Force was posted, the garrison camps of the 021 Division in various places welcomed a large number of young people who wanted to join the army.
After a rigorous selection process, it took only five days to select all 5,000 recruits who fully met the standards.
Facing five thousand recruits who can be called the best of the best, all young men in their twenties.
If it is other warlord troops, even Chiang Kai-shek's central government troops. Faced with the thousands of new recruits that were finally recruited, they will be sent to the military camp for training as soon as possible to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
¡°However, the National Defense Force in front of us is different.
Under Li Guosheng¡¯s special instructions, this recruitment vividly staged all forms of the National Defense Forces.
Five thousand recruits were recruited in villages and towns. They were escorted by an equal number of National Defense Force officers and carried big red flowers. Get into a car and go back to your hometown for a cruise. Of course, at the same time as the parade, the one hundred yuan settlement allowance distributed by the National Defense Force to each recruit was also distributed to the family members under the watchful eyes of all the villagers and neighbors
After a series of situations were completed, the five thousand recruits were transported by the motor battalion to Taiyuan for centralized training.
Although the recruitment of new soldiers by the National Defense Force has passed, the series of impacts brought by the recruitment of new soldiers on ordinary people are still deeply imprinted in their hearts.
In a farmhouse about one kilometer away from the Yellow River, the family of five was sitting around the only table in the house without saying a word.
You can feel it from the solemn expressions on everyone¡¯s faces. The atmosphere in this family is not very good at this moment.
?That is indeed the case.
A few months ago, before the Wehrmacht took over this place, the Red Army was undoubtedly the owner. Faced with the constant instigation from the Red Party propaganda team, and the dozens of kilograms of white flour distributed to his family by the Red Party after they attacked local tyrants, Wang Yougen, as the head of the family, made a decisive decision to let his second son, who was not yet married, join the Red Army.
At that time, because his son joined the Red Army, Wang Yougen, who thought he had found a good way out for his son to honor his ancestors, even showed off to his neighbors. among the surrounding neighbors and folks. He was also full of pride, as if his son had gone out to become a high official.
However, all of this slowly changed due to the arrival of the National Defense Forces.
Not only did the National Defense Forces not confiscate the fields that the Red Army gave them after they defeated the local tycoons, they also allocated several acres of additional land, giving each family member eight acres of fertile land. Not only that, but he also faced all the exorbitant taxes imposed on him by the government. A fixed grain tax is levied only once a year based on the number of acres of land in the confidant's home.
Because his son joined the Red Army, Wang Yougen believed that everything he saw was an illusion. The National Defense Force had to follow the footsteps of the Red Army in order to win people's hearts. Give yourself land and reduce taxes. It's been a long time. Sooner or later, the National Defense Forces occupying this place will show their fangs and take back what they have given to everyone.
¡°However, what surprised Wang Yougen was that not only did he not see the National Defense Force take back the fields in everyone¡¯s hands, but he also rewrote everyone¡¯s land deeds recognized by the government
In the thinking of the Chinese people since ancient times, only with a land deed can the land truly belong to them and no one can take it away. Therefore, on the day we got the land title, the whole family burst into tears of joy. At the same time, Wang Yougen's impression of the National Defense Forces also changed greatly, and he began to support various policies of the National Defense Forces.
When the National Defense Forces told everyone again: In order to ensure the autumn harvest, the National Defense Forces will provide everyone with high-quality seeds and even farming tools and cattle for free.
In Wang Yougen¡¯s heart, the status of the National Defense Force has invisibly surpassed the Red Party Red Army in which his son joined. The National Defense Forces occupying Shanxi are not trying to exploit themselves, but are really trying to make themselves rich.
However, when the National Defense Forces began to recruit troops locally, Wang Yougen's thoughts changed again.
??Especially when I saw that the National Defense Forces really sent a hundred yuan of resettlement allowance to my neighbor Lao Wang, andAll the villagers made a promise to Lao Wang: the soldiers' military pay will be paid in full every month without any deductions. As military dependents, the family members of recruits can enjoy the preferential policy of reducing or exempting 500 kilograms of grain tax every year
Seeing the excitement and pride on Lao Wang's face, Wang Yougen suddenly felt how stupid he was to let his second son join the Red Army.
If his second son had not joined the Red Army, if his second son had joined the National Defense Forces, he would have received a settlement allowance of 100 yuan like his neighbors. When he saw his son carrying a big red flower, he sat on the bus under the escort of the National Defense Forces officers and soldiers. I was paraded through the streets in a car that I had never ridden in my life, and was praised in public
However, all of this was ruined by my stupid decision.
¡°My son¡¯s participation in the so-called Red Party Red Army not only brought no benefits to his family, he did not receive generous military pay from the National Defense Forces, and he did not even receive the minimum pension after his death in battle
The National Defense Force in front of us not only paid a settlement allowance, exempted the family from certain food taxes, but also paid full military pay every month, and they could eat meat every meal in the army What's more important is that even if they die on the battlefield one day in the future, The pensions paid to family members by the National Defense Force are enough for them to spend the rest of their lives without worries
Comparing the two, the huge gap was clearly displayed in front of Wang Yougen.
This is the time. Wang Yougen suddenly had a feeling, facing the benefits provided by the National Defense Force. Faced with the various illusory futures promised to him by the Red Army, he seemed to have been deceived by the Red Army. Under the constant deception of the Red Army, his second son was sent to suffer in the Red Army without any military pay or welfare benefits.
Facing Wang Yougen, whose expression was constantly changing in front of him, his wife, who still had a trace of regret on her face, asked loudly: "Head of the house, please say something Look what you did in the first place, you let the second child Join the Red Army who don¡¯t even have enough to eat.¡±
"You are looking at Lao Wang from the family next door. His son joined the National Defense Force. Not only did he get a settlement allowance of 100 yuan, he was also exempted from the 500 kilograms of grain tax every year. He also received 6 yuan in military pay every month. That's six Even if it is used to buy all the food, it is enough to feed our family of five for a month"
Seeing the silent Wang Yougen in front of her, his wife continued to complain: "My poor little brother His son eats meat every day in the National Defense Forces and wears clothes every day, but our son is hungry every day in the Red Army. I can¡¯t wear a new piece of clothing. I can¡¯t eat meat a few times. Is this retribution?¡±
Just when his wife was about to continue talking, Wang Yougen finally spoke: "Have you said enough I also want our second son to join the National Defense Force, but didn't I think of it at the beginning Now my second son has joined the Red Army. Shaanxi, what¡¯s the use of regretting now¡¡±
Seeing that Wang Yougen was already showing signs of surrender. The wife quickly said: "Why is it useless? We can let the second brother leave the Red Army and go home Our family now has dozens of acres of land. Even going home to farm is better than being in the Red Army and not having enough to eat. Besides, The National Defense Force does not only recruit new soldiers once. When they recruit new soldiers next time, our second child can sign up"
"Thisisn't this asking the second child to become a deserteryou know. Deserters in the army will be shot. Don't let the second child die" Wang Yougen was frightened and hurried down. He spoke to persuade.
After hearing the word 'deserter', the wife was unwilling to do so and continued to complain with a dissatisfied look on her face: "What deserters? What nonsense are you talking about, boss Who made the welfare of the Red Army not as good as that of the National Defense Force? Since you can join the Red Army , then we can withdraw from the Red Army"
At this point, the eyes of his wife, who had decided to fight to the death for her son to return home, lit up and encouraged Wang Yougen: "When the second son joined the army, didn't their army commander say that after joining the Red Army, he could go home to visit his parents Since the Red Army has this According to the rules, let¡¯s have someone bring a message to the second son, telling him that I am seriously ill and about to die, and ask him to come back to see me one last time.¡±
"When the time comes, as long as our second son returns to Shanxi, the Red Army, which does not even have a plane, will no longer be able to do anything to us. By then, if our second son wants to farm at home, he will farm, and if he wants to join the army, he will join the army "
Hearing this, Wang Yougen was also moved.
Five days later, the second child of the Wang family, who was undergoing training at a Red Army station in Shaanxi, was handed over to the battalion headquarters by the battalion commander. After some painstaking education from the battalion instructor, he returned to his greatly changed home with uneasiness.
Seeing my mother standing in front of me, still intact. The second child asked with a confused look on his face: "Momdidn't you write a letter saying that you were bedridden? Could it be that you are already well"
After Wang Yougen gave his obviously much stronger dick a hard slap, he scolded angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? Your mother is fine If you don't say that your mother is bedridden"??, will your commander let you back? Come into the house with me, I have something to say to you"
¡°As for the child¡¯s mother, prepare a meal right away, kill an old hen and stew it, and give the baby a good supplement¡±
Seeing the smiling mother in front of her, she didn¡¯t object to killing the chicken and walked directly to the location of the chicken coop.
The second child quickly stopped and said: "Dad, what are you doing The old hen at home can be used to lay eggs in exchange for household materials, rice, oil, and salt. If you kill it, what will happen to our future materials, rice, oil, and salt? Although when the Red Army leaves, They gave us land and left a lot of food, but our family is not so luxurious that we can kill old hens"
He glared hard at the second child in front of him who had been harmed by the Red Army and had been deeply poisoned.
Wang Yougen cursed loudly: "Bullshit, the little food the Red Army distributed to us is not even enough for a week Don't mention the Red Army to me. I will get angry if you mention the Red Army."
Hearing this, the second child quit and retorted loudly: "Dad, how did you talk? How could you say bad things about the Red Army? If it weren't for the Red Army, how could our family get the land? If it weren't for the Red Army, how could our son be Become an excellent Red Army soldier"
After glaring at the helpless dick in front of him again, Wang Yougen was completely angry, and he was so angry at his own dick.
He cursed loudly at the second child: "You heartless person, you still don't know who our family's benefactor is until now Yes, the Red Army allotted us fields, but no government issued any Without the land deeds, sooner or later these fields will return to the hands of the landlords."
"However, since the arrival of the National Defense Forces, we no longer have to worry about the land in our hands being taken back by the landlords. Because the National Defense Forces not only issued us a land title recognized by the government, but also gave each of us several acres of additional land. .¡±
"What's more important is that the grain seeds we planted this year, the agricultural tools used to grow grain, and even the cattle were all provided to us free of charge by the National Defense Forces. Without the continuous free rations provided by the National Defense Forces, we would be Our family has long been diluted by eating the chaff and drinking out the dozens of kilograms of grain left behind by the Red Army"
"Also, you said that it is glorious and good to be in the Red Army Then let me ask you, after you have been in the Red Army for such a long time, has the Red Army ever given you a large sum of military pay? Have you ever had a salary in the Red Army? Dunrou, did the Red Army unit you joined give us a piece of resettlement allowance"
