Chapter 375
In Xiaolin Village, Linzi County, Qingzhou Prefecture, Shandong Province, in the cold wind, the villagers' faces were red from cold but were reluctant to go home because the People's Army was distributing land to them.
Land! Your own land!
After many years, there are only five families in Xiaolin Village who still own their own land. There are only two families who can make a living by relying on their own land. Other ordinary people can only cultivate land for the landlords, get up early and go to bed late every day, and finally prevent the whole family from starving to death.
Once upon a time, in the description of the landlord and the landlord's dog legs, the People's Army was a demon that devoured people. In order to resist the People's Army, all young and strong must join the guard team.
The People's Army came, and the landlords directly surrendered with the guards. The People's Army disbanded the guards and let these young and strong men go home. When the family saw their husbands or sons or come back, they cried with joy, which made them feel that the People's Army did not seem to be a human-eating demon.
The local People's Military Government was established. The working group left the city under the escort of the People's Army soldiers and walked around the countryside. At the same time, it told all the people that the People's Army would divide the land for the people, four acres of adults and two acres of children.
The people couldn't believe that the People's Army actually distributed land for them for free, which was too unbelievable, but the People's Army really came to divide land for the people. The people of Xiaolin Village determined the scope of their own land in the cold wind.
Some people cry bitterly about their own land. After many years, they finally own their own land. This is their former dream, but now it has been realized by the People's Army. Thanks to the Grand Commander and the People's Army.
Feng Jie, an official of the People's Military Government who is responsible for distributing land to the people of Xiaolin Village, saw the people showing various emotions because of obtaining land, Feng Jie was filled with emotion.
A few years ago, his parents were so excited to obtain land from the People's Army. When they just obtained land, their parents even had nightmares, dreaming that the government army would fight back and snatch the land away.
A few years have passed, and relying on the land distributed by the People's Army, the whole family can eat and wear well. Feng Jie was even more lucky to enter the school and is now a member of the People's Army.
The People's Army brought earth-shaking changes to Feng Jie's family. Feng Jie was willing to repay the People's Army with his whole life, and was willing to follow the People's Army to let more poor people live a good life.
Many days ago, Feng Jie received the news that General Wang Shengrong led the vanguard army to capture Beiping City. At that time, Feng Jie and his colleagues cheered. If the Ming court was destroyed, our People's Army would let all the poor people live a good life, and the fields in the hands of the people would never be taken away again.
Dividing land to the people is the best way for the People's Army to quickly get the people of all over the country to accept the rule of the People's Army. Dividing land to the people can also make more smiles appear on the people's faces in the upcoming New Year.
As a southerner, Feng Jie and his colleagues endured the cold, completed their tasks and brought joy to the people of each village.
...
In the city of Guangzhou, Fang Nan is still dealing with government affairs. With the capture of Beiping City by the People's Army, the death of the Ming Emperor means that the Ming Dynasty has been destroyed.
In Fang Nan's view, the demise of the Ming Dynasty was a new beginning for the People's Army, and the People's Army still has a lot to do.
There are three most important things to be done quickly. The first thing is to allow the People's Army to quickly occupy all the areas that can be occupied by the land of China. The second thing is to follow the army and quickly establish the people's military governments in various places and manage the local area with the army. The third thing is to mobilize troops to various places to prevent foreign enemies from attacking.
The governance of the local area is quickly completed internally and externally, the normal production and life of the people are restored, and the people are allowed to accept the rule of the People's Army. For the time being, they are just fighting against the enemy and have not even handled the internally well. How can they mobilize the army to attack the enemy?
There are several enemies outside the land of China. Fang Nan does not believe that those enemies will not be able to see the wars that occur on the land of China. It is cold winter now. When the spring next year comes and the weather gets warmer, it is the best time for the enemy to invade China. The People's Army needs to be prepared.
Fang Nan was not too worried about the invading enemy. More than three years ago, the People's Army had more than 300,000 troops, and had the strength to destroy the Ming court. However, the People's Army stopped because the number of officials in various places was not enough to govern the area and the troops were not enough to defend and resist foreign enemies.
Now the total strength of the People's Army exceeds one million. Seven years ago, the Ming court relied on one million Ming troops to defend the land of China to resist foreign enemies. However, the strength of the million Ming troops was not strong enough. The Japanese pirates, Tatars, and the Dongyu Dynasty all brought constant pain to the land of China.
If the Ming court has enough strength, it can defend the enemy from outside the country and prevent the enemy from entering the land of China. If the Ming court has strong strength, it can directly destroy the enemy or drive it away.
One million People's Army is much stronger than the one million Ming troops once, and there is no problem in defending the enemy outside the country's gates. You can even go all the way to destroy the enemy.
It is easy to say about other enemies, but the Tatars are more troublesome. The few Tatars who control the strings are at least 100,000, and the most are hundreds of thousands. The cavalry is highly mobile and can still run if they cannot defeat them. The People's Army has few cavalry and cannot pursue the Tatar cavalry at all. The Tatar cavalry keeps harassing the border, which is enough for the People's Army to be irritable.
After unifying the land of China, the People's Army had more war horses, and it was time to form more lancer troops. Cavalry equipped with muskets would definitely defeat enemies that were several times more than themselves.
Only by completing the rule of various places under the rule, allowing the people to return to normal production and life, defending enemies outside the country, can we do this to start more plans, and the most important point is to develop ourselves.
Fortunately, the replacement of regimes on China did not cause too much chaos, nor did it cause too many ordinary people to die or be displaced due to war. The main reason is that the People's Army is relatively restrained and will not blindly expand its territory before it does not have enough strength.
To all the people share land and let all the people have enough food, the next step is to develop education, industry, agriculture, commerce, etc.
The development of education is the foundation. Schools cultivate more intellectuals and invest in workers, farmers and commerce. Industry can produce more cheap goods for the public to buy, and can create strong ships, powerful guns and equipment for the army; agriculture can produce more grain.
