Chapter 23 Eagle Flag Flying

"The eagle on our heads is the fire that ignites life. We bravely go out to fight, and the motherland calls heroes. We fight tenaciously to heal all the pain. Our firm oath is the common voice of the nation. We raise our heads and chests, for the glory of the military flag, we are united, victory belongs to us, and victory belongs to us, and victory belongs to us, and towns in Lingbi, and the troops sing majestic songs again. The bloody flag is about one meter five meters wide and two meters long. There is a golden eagle above. Below the eagle is iron-blooded ten thousand words, and the letters are written to the first regiment of X-Bath or X-Bath of the second regiment.

"The second and third companies in the second and third companies have been singing this song these days! It's quite impressive." In Youji Town, the grocery store owner who had been busy for a day stood on the dilapidated city wall and looked at the army returning to the camp. Youji Station was stationed by the 3rd companies in the second and third companies and a machine gun squad. Unlike other places, this place has the largest number of troops garrisons except Si Town. It is mainly because Yugabiao led the Youji Hedi gentry to organize many workshops, ranging from cloth shoes and straw sandals to brewing, ironworking, and artificial flour, so it is a key protected area for Dengsen.

"That's right, which army in our Huaibei area can deal with Commander Deng? The two regiments under Commander Deng have more than 6,000 people plus this momentum, this equipment and the one who is blindly afraid to provoke him? According to the play, now we are training troops and Anmin. It's possible that Commander Deng will attack other county towns that day!" There are still many people around the city walls. Watching soldiers in these days has become their new entertainment activities, and watching these officers and soldiers will have a greater sense of security.

"Just fight! I think it's a good thing. Look at us now, in addition to paying some taxes to the government, we have to save more than a dozen yuan in a month. It's enough to support a family! Are there people in other counties like us? Think about it, when there was no reform, we had to pay more than half of the money in a month, and our family was in a tight life!" The grocery store owner also joined the business alliance and opened a soy sauce workshop himself. In the past month, there has been no harassment from gangsters, and he has lived much more comfortable life than the previous miscellaneous taxes.

"That's true, but war will eventually lead to death!" said the person who spoke last time.

"Mr. Chen, have you not seen the soldiers practice hard? Haven't you heard the government's propaganda? Leader Deng wants the people of the whole country to live a good life like this! If I were twenty years younger, I would have gone to join the army, and I would have died if I died. Look how good Chen Qing's family is now, and the government subsidies 15 yuan a month, which is higher than my income. Moreover, his second son was directly exempted from the inspection and entered the army. The third son and two daughters were taken to the county school by the regiment headquarters, and they were still in charge of food and accommodation." Chen Qing was the soldier who had exploded the door before. After the war, Deng Sen directly awarded him the Golden Eagle Iron Cross badge, and paid the military salary for first-class military merits within 20 years. His younger brother and sister were even sent by Deng Sen to the county to study in the county elementary school.

"Boss Wang, don't you know that that's not the highest. I heard that the machine gun squad soldier died in the last time when he attacked Si Town, and that was like this. There was also a young man named Feng Long who even won the title of special merit and a handmade badge made of pure gold. Unfortunately, he only has one sister and no other family members. But his sister also enjoys it. She is only seventeen years old. She entered the propaganda department and is already a township-level captain. She has a high monthly income and can also go to class for free in her spare time. I heard that the man who pursues her is chasing her is already a township captain.

Children can line up on the street." Feng Long's family only has one sister Feng Yun, and there are no other relatives. They have been dependent on each other because they fled from Shandong. After Deng Sen learned about them, he recruited Feng Yun to the county and finally found that the girl had a high political awareness and spoke very well. She also went to Gao Jiao for a while. Deng Sen's iron-blooded propaganda department just started to participate in propaganda. Deng Sen transferred him to the second regiment to appoint him as the captain of the Si Town propaganda team, responsible for the propaganda spirit of the regiment headquarters.

"I feel that Captain Deng is like the revolutionary party in the south. Propagandas are democratic and livelihood, but Captain Deng is even more able to implement it. You see, there is no peace here in the south, right? In our Lingbi, we can't starve people to death. As long as we work hard or farm, we can definitely eat and wear and wear." In just two months, Lingbi has changed a lot, and a large number of refugees flocked to actively produce various products.

"Yes, the summer harvest two days ago, all the garrisons organized to help farmers rush to harvest. The scene was very lively. If it were in previous years, not to mention that each family now had dozens of acres of arable land, even ten acres of land would be busy enough." The summer harvest was completed in just one week, and all the garrisons in the county participated in it. However, except for the tax grain collected, Deng Sen's Chamber of Commerce did not receive much food. It was because the people were afraid of being hungry and did not dare to sell food, although each family had a lot of food.

"I heard that the county issued another policy two days ago to build a large grain reserve station in the county town. In addition to keeping enough of the grain needed by their own family, all other grains need to be sold to the government, and the government purchases them at market prices." A man wearing dark green looks like a military uniform next to him said. The man limped and his right finger was missing.

"Oh, it's Director Zhou!" But everyone was very respectful when they saw him.

"Haha, don't be polite, in fact, the government is also for everyone's good. Look, the government has now set up an identity. As long as you go to the county photo studio to take a picture, you will send you a small notebook that records your address, age and other information. Then each ID card can be handled in the county bank, just like the money shop in the past. Of course, it is more at ease to put it in the government in this troubled times. As long as you need money, you can go to the county to withdraw the money." The man, known as Director Zhou, looked at everyone with a smile, glanced at the army that had arrived at the gate of the military camp, full of envy. He was a disabled veteran and was assigned to be the director of the Youji Police.

"Isn't that the same as the previous money shop? We have to give them money! It's better to be with our own house!" Someone suddenly thought that the government wanted to be strong in personal finance.

"Of course not. This is free, and it is also free to withdraw it. Do you think the government will ignor your money? You only have a few dollars, so the government will ignorant? Are you still thinking that the government will force you to deposit it in? Look at the army in the military camp. If the government wants your money, do you have the ability to resist? So don't be suspicious! I'm reading it to you now!" Director Zhou was very angry that these people doubt the government. He can see Deng Sen's staunch supporters, because his current salary and treatment are all paid by the government, and no one knows the benefits of the government better than them.

"County Order No. 5.13, the county banking office started a new type of business. Regardless of businessmen and people, those who have excess income, those who are not worried about safety can deposit money into the banking office and keep it on their own. Anyone who deposits money will issue a deposit card with a black and white photo of a person on it. All money must be collected by himself and can only be collected at the counters of each township! The banking office is divided into thirteen counters, each counter corresponds to each township. All personnel in the county, over the age of fifteen, must go to the county to apply for their ID documents. If any person who fails to handle the application is found, he will be deported." Director Zhou finished reading it with a superior document.

After reading, everyone has different ideas. Some people believe in the government so they think it's good, while others don't trust it so they feel that it's risky.

"I will go to apply for an ID card tomorrow, and then go to the bank to ask carefully." Many people have made up this idea.

Turning the camera, we look at Lingbi. Now Lingbi has been planned tidy. The previous work of thousands of prisoners and more than 20,000 migrant workers showed its results. The neat red brick and tile buildings are two stories high, and the roads are also sorted out. The county center is a large building with two floors wide and a hundred meters long. There are twenty gates around the building. There are many rooms in the gate, all of which are office spaces. The upper floor is the Military Affairs Office of the Regiment Department. The downstairs are divided into chambers of commerce, banks, finance offices, courts and other units. There are several halls of about 200 square meters, namely the bank handling hall, chamber of commerce memory hall, and court trial hall. These are designed according to Deng Sen's idea. Unfortunately, there is no cement here, so white ash can only be used instead of cement.

"Teacher Commander, according to the telegram, Mr. Mondes has arrived in Xuzhou and is under the escort of the Xuzhou garrison of the Third Regiment under the command of Jiangsu Governor Zhao Yan. It is expected to arrive at 3 pm." Li Ran ran from his office with a report to Deng Sen's command office.

"Sit down!" Deng Sen put down his pen, stopped the party constitution being written, and looked at Li Ran.

"It's the commander!" Li Ran sat down in front of the sand table before Deng Sen was working.

"How are you doing?" Deng Sen asked.

"It's ready. The first and second regiments have drawn half of their troops to participate in the city entry ceremony. The division commander is relieved that our troops will show the heroic posture of a soldier." Li Ran stood up unconsciously to salute, which has become a habit.

"Very good, sit down. This time it's a problem. How could a reporter follow you?" Mondes escorted nearly one or two million oceans of goods to Lingbi, which attracted the attention of the Newspaper and sent two reporters to come. The newspapers in Shanghai also followed him, wanting to see who was the warlord who bought such arms at one time. Some speculated that it was a warlord in a certain province in Beiyang, and some speculated that it was Zhao Yan who bought it himself, but that was all speculation, and the truth was that they needed to explore it themselves.

Dengson was very troubled. He had originally sent Mondes for safety, but now it became even more dangerous. Nearly two million supplies would not make warlords everywhere envious? I am afraid that even the warlords in various provinces could not bear the temptation, so he had to show his strength to the best of his ability, and how to show that? That was, after reporters from all sides arrived, his soldiers entered through the county gate. By the way, there were no walls in Lingbi County now. The walls in the past had been demolished and converted into residential houses, and there were even more large lakes around him, all because of the soil that was dug for burning bricks!

"Battery Commander, thank you for your escort." When we arrived at Gaolou Town in the north of Lingbi, Deng Sen's representative Tian Ding had already taken a battalion soldiers to wait. Jiuliang truck and more than 200 soldiers were on high alert, fearing that the Xuzhou army would rush over, and the three heavy machine guns were even better aimed at the opponent.

"You are a foreign friend. We should give our strength." The camp official with long braids and hat nodded and bowed.

"Come on, carry it up!" Tian Ding walked to the camp officer with a smile, first praised each other for a while, and then asked his subordinates to carry it up two boxes of oceans.

"Battleman Commander Ge, this is a thank you gift from our division commander to Governor Zhao. Thank you for your escort. Please accept it." Tian Ding opened the box, and the soft light dazzled the other party's eyes for a moment, and many of the reporters also looked over.

"Thank you, Commander Deng, thank you!" I gave the money to Zhao Xun, and Zhao Xun was the governor of a province, so he would care about this little 10,000 yuan. To put it bluntly, it was money given to the Xuzhou garrison, so the other party was of course happy.

"Haha! That's good. Now that you have entered the boundaries of our province, you know that this cannot be messed up, so we can just escort ourselves in the future." Tian Ding patted the other party's shoulder and said with a smile.

"That's natural. People come to inform the brothers that the mission has been completed and we will go back." The other battalion commander turned around happily and took his soldiers back.

"Are you Mr. Mondes?" Tian Ding came to the front of several foreigners and asked softly at the middle-aged man who was about 1.73 meters tall.

"Yes, Mr. Officer, are you Deng's subordinate?" After the translator, Mondes understood that Deng's men were in front of him.

"Yes, sir, I'm here to welcome you by the commander of the division." Tian Ding replied with a military salute. Commander, this was Deng Sen's self-proclaimed self-proclaimed, and he was also hurriedly changing when he learned that the reporter was coming. If he was calling himself the commander in front of the world, wouldn't he lose his value?

"Okay, Mr. Officer, please lead the way, my convoy will follow you." This time, because of the large amount of cargo, and Dunson bought fifty trucks and more than 40 tons of gasoline, the convoy has already reached 223, which is the largest convoy in China.

"I can't believe that there is such a place in China! Look at the village over there, the buildings are so neat!" A reporter picked up his camera and took a photo at a village passing by the convoy. Because the village was covered with bricks and tiles and timbers, and it looked extremely beautiful and completely different from the villages in other places.

"Yes, you see, their roads have been sorted out, which are much smoother than other places. If it weren't for dirt roads, they would catch up with the roads in big cities!" Another newspaper reporter was also surprised by the roads under his feet, and took a camera and shot a photo at the roads under his car.

The reporters from China News Agency were surprisingly surprised, but foreign newspaper reporters were very calm. There were many such buildings in European countries and the roads were much better than here.

"Try harder, one, two, one, two, one..." When the convoy was marching, he encountered a place where he was digging a river. Thousands of people gathered here, and they were busy working together. They were militia organizations from all over the country that Deng Sen ordered the construction of canals and reservoirs.

"Dear officer, can you tell me what these people are doing?" A foreign journalist looked at the militia strangely, turned around and asked Tian Ding, who was accompanying Mondes through an interpreter.

"There are the canals we planned for dry season irrigation, and those people are reserve soldiers of the Youth Militia regiment in each of our villages." Tian Ding replied.

"Military Reserve? Deputy Commander Tian, ​​what kind of army is this militia reserve?" Foreign journalists in the reserve understand, but there was no such word in China at this time, and a reporter from the news newspaper asked first.

"Military Reserve is a secondary organization of our army. It is used to prevent bandits and thieves in daily life. Wars can be directly included in first-level military organizations to participate in the war." Tian Ding replied.

"Deputy Commander Tian, ​​why do the villages over there look so neat? This is very different from the villages in other provinces and cities." Another reporter asked.

"It is our newly built village. In the past, people lived in poverty and could not build houses. Now we mobilized the masses to make their own bricks, and all the villagers gathered together to build their own houses under the command of the county construction team. They built neatly for the sake of beauty and tidyness."

"Hey! What's wrong with that piece of smoke? This is like a town?" When passing by Gaolou Town and Wangji Town, when they arrived at Youji Town, the reporters saw the smoke emitting next to the town, but there were much more here than in other places.

"This is our handicraft workshop center. We do not have advanced machinery and can only produce various needs by hand. There are various daily necessities manufacturing workshops in the place you refer to!"

"Deputy Commander Tian, ​​why don't there be a city gate in the county?" Many Chinese journalists who came to Lingbi were surprised by the tidyness of the place, and the difference between this city and any domestic city, there is no city wall.

"We don't need a city wall, no one can hit our county town, no one can break through the defense line composed of our soldiers. Of course, some people may not believe it, but one of our regiments will also enter the city later. In order to welcome Mr. Mondes the day after tomorrow, we will also hold a military parade." Tian Ding said confidently and proudly.

"One, one, one, two..." Just as the convoy of Mondes entered the city, suddenly a neat horn sounded a mile away from the east, followed by a loud military song.

"The eagle on our heads is the fire that ignites life. We bravely set out to fight..." When everyone was shocked, they were not only surprised by the hugeness and grandeur of the government building here, but also by the soldiers.

A regiment of three thousand people, the soldiers in front of them held a blood-colored eagle flag and an iron-tonne-character armband on their arms, advancing at almost the same speed as the convoy. When the convoy arrived dozens of meters in front of the building, the soldiers in German uniforms walked by with neat footsteps!

"Hey...Dunson...Hey...Big Man..." What scared everyone even more was that the three thousand people shouted neatly.

I'm writing late at night, and I'm updating ten thousand words every day! It's right! I'm in touch with the world, everyone applauds, flowers, kisses, and vote!
