Chapter 546 Global Report
Liu Shu is now the official identity of the mayor of Baotou Special City and the district mayor of Baotou Special Administrative Region. He controls the administrative work in the core area of the entire northwest. He is busy with work every day and doesn’t even care much about this battle in Mongolia. That is, when he was informed today, he knew something. After hearing Yang Yuanzhao’s call, he handled the work at hand and then quickly entered Yang Yuanzhao’s office.
"Yuanzhao, come to me!" Before the person arrived, the voice arrived first. Yang Yuanzhao looked up at Liu Shu and handed him a report on his hand. Liu Shu glanced at him. The name of the report was very simple, the construction report of the Northwest Martyrs Cemetery.
Martyrs Cemetery, what is this? Is it a cemetery? I opened the report and read it in three or five times. Liu Shu asked in a slight surprise: "Yuan Zhao, don't you have to be so grand, right?"
The plan is very simple. It is to build a cemetery specifically for the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country during the war. Liu Shu, who had been dealing with political affairs for a long time, knew it would be beneficial to the cohesion and people's hearts in the northwest. He didn't expect it before, but now he knows it, he must have built it. But the reason why he is confused is that Yang Yuanzhao gave him too high treatment.
The sacrificed soldiers, regardless of their identity, all coffins are made from the best nanmu. After being transported to Baotou by car and train, they will be escorted by the guard of honor. Each coffin carries 8 people. Along the way, hearse is accompanied for citizens to admire and finally sent to the martyrs cemetery. There must not only be monuments, but also special exhibition halls and deeds reports, with dedicated persons responsible for some of the deeds and relics of the martyrs. They will be preserved specifically.
"That's what it's decided, the personnel are arranged by you. As for the funds, you don't have to worry, you can leave my private account!"
"How can this be done? How can one get out of your account if it is so subject to government affairs?" Liu Shu just felt a little grand, but he was not stopping it. Now Yang Yuanzhao said that leaving his private account was obviously interfering in political affairs, so of course he raised objections.
After a long time, Liu Shu finally won. Of course, Yang Yuanzhao also paid some money, but it was not directly supported by the way, but donated. There were always places where the achievements and funerals of the martyrs were not taken care of. The government was responsible for the construction of the martyrs' cemetery and the martyrs' pensions. The subsequent arrangements were made. As for the donation funds, they were used to check for omissions and fill in the gaps. There were always times when the martyrs' families were special, and even the Northwest's relaxed and strict pension measures were not enough. Before, there were not many fewer, but now, it was just a few months in the battle to buy and sell the city. Nearly 1,500 people were sacrificed, plus the previous battle in Mongolia and the Battle of Zhangjiakou, the loss exceeded 2,000. This fund took the path of charity, which gave the Northwest a good start. As the reason was mentioned, Liu Shu agreed.
Liu Shu began to be busy preparing for the martyrs' cemetery. Now the government has a very abundant funding. Not only has the foundation laid before begun to bear fruit, but the construction of a series of large heavy industrial enterprises may be less outstanding than the light industry in terms of single profits than the previous labor-intensive light industry. However, it has a strong driving effect on the profit and tax level, driving capacity of the entire industry, and local supporting capacity. The government's revenue has almost doubled compared to last year. In addition to investing in infrastructure, such a crazy increase in income is only guaranteed by the government. As for heavy industrial investment, it is not the government's business, it is the business of banks and large consortiums. There is no problem with squeezing out tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of funds from the middle.
The Martyrs Cemetery will be built for a while. Of course, the bodies of the soldiers in front can only be ashes. It is impossible for so many vehicles to transport this specifically. In addition, the weather is already warm. Even if the roads are now open, it will take at least 3-4 days from the northwest to the front line of the Buying and Sales City. This is fast. For military transportation, it is no problem, but in three or four days, in the hot and humid summer, the bodies may smell. Due to the restrictions of the times, Yang Yuanzhao could not develop refrigerated cars and crystal coffins, and could only be burned into ashes and sent back. Of course, relics and some memorials do not need to be burned.
The Martyrs Cemetery cannot be built overnight. After the martyrs on the front line will be placed in a special location after returning, temporarily storing and celebrating the people, but the guard of honor must be prepared. The first batch of 400 martyrs' ashes will be transported back four or five days later. These are all the personnel sacrificed by the First Army. The number was about 1,000 people, but the sacrifices have not been dealt with yet. They themselves were stored by the Logistics Department. After the army returns, they will be handed over to their families or place to place them. However, now, Yang Yuanzhao has proposed such a new method, of course, it is to return in batches. The reason why it is not returned in batches is because there are too many people, the guard of honor will be a little insufficient. After all, in addition to carrying the coffin, there are also people who need to parade the streets to mourn. Now, there are only about 4,000 people who are urgently dispatched.
The airship only took one day to arrive in Baotou, and all kinds of information had been sent, including complete picture information, but also some were seized, including seven divisions' battle flags.
Before, no matter what happened, they almost destroyed 173 and 179, but also severely damaged 122 and 156, but they did not seize too much. At most, they were some light weapons. As for the battle flags, they could seize at most some battalions and companies. As for those above the regiment, don't even think about it. No one would charge forward with these high-level battle flags casually.
But this time it was different. Baotou was the main attacker, and the opponent had almost no ability to counterattack. In more than an hour, he broke through the defense line of six divisions. The division headquarters of these six divisions almost collapsed with one blow, and the battle flag and most of the things were preserved intact. As for the one behind, it was a Russian Far Eastern Division. They almost fled in all directions without waiting for the attack, and most of them surrendered. Of course, the battle flag and most of the information were also seized by the northwest. In fact, there was another one. Unfortunately, the tattered one was broken under the attack of artillery fire. If it were not for the previous seven, perhaps this one could be taken out, but with seven pearls and jade in front, the tattered one was not worth it.
Photos, battle flags, enemy annihilation numbers, and even counted photos of some senior Russian officers who died and captured. These were at least regiment level, proving the glory of this battle from all aspects.
With these information, Yang Yuanzhao immediately moved the propaganda department. Although the northwest is just a region, it is definitely powerful in the propaganda mouthpiece. In this era, at least no one has noticed the propaganda weapon in China. It uses money to open the way with the relationship between the past. In addition, this is really an amazing headline news. After receiving these press releases, major newspapers almost agreed to publish on the headlines the next day.
China is just a side-by-side, and it is also the key to the Northwest gaining reputation and establishing its image among the whole people. It is mainly outside. The reason why Baotou launched this battle was to let Russia know that the combat effectiveness of the Northwest was so strong. After all, if a big country like Russia was dragged down on the Mongolian issue, it was not something that the Northwest would like to see. No matter what, the 5 million army was not made of paper.
Foreign media are not as easy as domestic media. Fortunately, some of the previous paths, the United States, Europe, and even German media, always have a way to publish them. In addition, this news is indeed hard, and a war to kill 100,000 enemies is between a local government in China and a polar bear Russia. Not to mention the politicians of various countries, even ordinary people are willing to watch it. This is simply a legend and a miracle.
In this way, China's last contact was first released, and foreign countries also made some efforts to release it almost simultaneously in China. This became a global unified release in a certain sense. Even if there were no major media, such as France, Britain, but the United States, some small European countries and Germany, the media of Britain and France could not sit still. First, the tabloids, then the big newspapers and major media. Suddenly, the battle between Baotou and Russia was revealed to the world.
Of course, in the report, there were more or less false reports. For example, Baotou actually used two armies, and only one army was actually taking action. However, in the report, it used four armies, about 260,000 people, and under the suppression of artillery fire, it launched a group attack on the Russian army. Of course, armored vehicles could not appear in the report. As for the data on the Russian army, it was relatively realistic. It defeated 150,000 Russian troops, killed 40,000, and captured 50,000. As for the following, there were a large number of photos, including battle flags, seized weapons, captured and killed senior Russian officers, and even the scenes around Chuktu, all appeared in the newspapers in a bold manner.
All such propaganda, especially the concentrated bombing of major media in the world, caused an uproar in the world. If it took four months before the northwest to kill about 50,000, no country in the suicide camp counted the number of enemy annihilations. It was all suicide squads, and few could survive. Previously, the Russian army even used 200,000 suicide camps to attack a city with only about 30,000 defenders.
The previous record of Northwest was already amazing. Many countries believe that Northwest is already qualified to stand in the ranks of world army powers. However, now, Northwest has launched another bombshell. It only took such a night to kill 90,000 prisoners, which is more than twice the previous four months. Could it be that the Russian army is really finished, all of them are tofu, and they are broken with just one stab.
In any case, the Northwest has become famous. Not only have countries placed the Northwest in a considerable position, but the people of various countries have also gained a new understanding of the Northwest. In addition, the joysticks of overseas Chinese have become much more straightforward. To a large extent, the status of Chinese people is determined by China. If the country is strong, overseas people will have the confidence and weak country will be really bullied. The Qing Dynasty before was always the object of oppression. Now, the emergence of the Northwest is really like a bright lamppost, making the Northwest immediately the focus of Chinese attention.
