Chapter 2592 The Land of Immortals

Guangxi has always been a place with strong folk customs. Heroes probably come out of Guangxi and Guangxi areas.

After the Battle of Songhu broke out, the Nationalist Government originally expected to recruit tens of thousands of troops in Guangxi, but it did not expect that hundreds of thousands of people signed up.

There was no other way. The Nationalist government, which had not yet realized how brutal the Battle of Songhu would be, had no choice but to draw lots to decide who would go to the battlefield.

Guangxi soldiers are also called "wolf soldiers"!

The main force of the national army evacuated Shanghai, and the Gui army was placed in a rear position.

The Wolf Soldiers once again showed their style in the final battle in Shanghai.

They fought the Japanese army bloody to the end with their native guns and swords, never taking a step back.

In the Battle of Songhu, the Gui Army suffered more than 60,000 casualties, making it the warlord force with the most casualties in the battle!

After Guangxi became the rear area, the troops deployed around Guilin reached the size of six divisions.

There are also some elite teachers among them.

However, there are many factions and the chain of command is in chaos.

For example, the 46th Army and the 31st Army have a total of four divisions.

The 175th Division belongs to the National Army and is backed by senior officials of the National Army.

The commander of the 46th Army belongs to the Guangxi faction. He can only command the 19th Division.

Let’s look at the commander of the 31st Army, a member of the Central Committee.

But the commander of the subordinate 135th Division was Bai Chongxi's confidant, and the commander of the 188th Division was Bai Chongxi's close nephew.

How do you ask the military commander to mobilize them?

This created a strange situation where the commander could not mobilize the corps commander, and the corps commander could not mobilize the division commander.

The remaining two divisions are the 131st Division, which is recognized as having the worst combat effectiveness, with Kan Weiyong as the division commander, and the 170th Division, which is composed entirely of new soldiers and with Xu Gaoyang as the division commander.

These two divisions do not belong to the central clique, nor do they belong to the Guangxi clique. They are simply caught in the middle and suffer the consequences.

Therefore, the situation in Guangxi, especially Guilin, is complicated and chaotic.

But no matter what, the entire Guangxi is a refuge for refugees during the Anti-Japanese War.

Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Guangxi's total population was 14 million.

By this year, the number had surged to nearly 15 million.

Most of the extra million people are refugees.

Therefore, this has caused a strange phenomenon. As soon as you enter Guangxi, you can almost hear dialects from all over the country.

Henan, Hebei, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Southwest China, and Southeast Asia.

People from all over the world can talk about anything.

The increasing number of refugees has caused prices to skyrocket in Guangxi.

The increase in refugees makes management difficult and affects social security.

Coupled with the increase in unemployed refugees, it has brought difficulties to employment.

Among the refugee groups, women, the elderly and children are vulnerable groups due to their frailty and lack of labor ability, so they have limited access to food and other means of living. Their situation is naturally the most difficult.

This has seriously increased the burden on the Guangxi government.

But even so, Guangxi people still showed their broad mind. Under the leadership of the Guangxi government, they spared no effort to rescue these refugees.

They divided Guangxi into several relief areas, set up professional refugee relief stations, and uniformly arranged and supervised the rescue, evacuation, accommodation, transportation, production, allocation, medical and health care, air raid relief and other work of refugees.

Meng Shao originally entered Guangxi from Cangwu in the east.

As soon as we entered Cangwu, we saw a large number of refugees queuing up.

In front, is a big banner:

Guangxi Provincial Refugee Relief Society Cangwu Branch.

A woman with four children is waiting in line.

Everyone is holding a cloth bag in their hands.

A child was disobedient, and the woman gave him a few words of discipline.

When Meng Shaoyuan heard it, he realized it was in Shanghai dialect.

He stepped forward and asked in Shanghai dialect: "Sister, are things distributed here?"

When the woman heard that she was a fellow villager, she immediately nodded her head: "Yes, you are also a refugee, right?"

"Yes, sister, I also fled from Shanghai."

"Ouch, why don't you wait in line here? This place is specially for handing out things to old people, women and little girls.

Here, the adults have one catty of rice, and the little girl has half a catty."

The woman seemed particularly enthusiastic: "Young men, there is a special factory to teach you how to do things. If your health is not good, you can also make cigarettes, make straw sandals, and make ropes."

"Ah, okay, okay, I understand, thank you, sister."

Meng Shaoyuan took a look and found that although the queue was long, it was in good order.

After walking around with Li Zhifeng for a while, suddenly there were a few people in suits handing out a thin pamphlet.

Meng Shaoyuan also took a copy.

"Guangxi Provincial Zhenji Association Small Loan Implementation Measures".

This is a guide dedicated to granting small loans.

Any poor person who has no bad habits, has a fixed residence and wants to make a living on his own but lacks capital can fill out the relevant loan application form and apply for a loan after verification.

For example, street vendors can borrow 20 yuan to 50 yuan, and those who open small shops can borrow 50 yuan to 100 yuan. There is no interest or other related fees for borrowing.

"Good, good." Meng Shaoyuan was full of praise: "With the support of small loans, refugees can become self-employed, reduce the financial burden of the government, and is also conducive to the recovery of local economic production. This method in Guangxi is good."

While he was talking there, the loudspeaker suddenly sounded.

What we are talking about here is the knowledge of preventing infectious diseases and how to extinguish them.

Guangxi has many mountainous areas, and infectious diseases are rampant.uuReading www.uukanshu.com

Therefore, the Guangxi government has also set up epidemic prevention committees in various places to distribute medicines, set up clinics, and actively patrol for prevention and treatment.

These measures also minimize the harm of infectious diseases.

"What a fairy-like place this is."

Meng Shaoyuan finally couldn't help it anymore: "If governments across the country learn from Guangxi, can our country do well?"

"Boss, this is just Cangwu." Li Zhifeng reminded in a low voice: "It's hundreds of miles away from Guilin. We can't walk on two legs, right?

Guangxi is good, but there are many mountainous areas here, and bandits have always appeared. I heard that there are hundreds of thousands of bandits.

Even with the war, the bandits don't dare to go too far, and I haven't heard of any big murders. But I'm the only one next to you, what if something happens?"

"Cang Wu is commanded by the Wuzhou group, right?"

Meng Shaoyuan thought for a moment: "Send out a contact signal. We will spend the night in Cangwu today and wait for the other party to take the initiative to contact us.

Li Zhifeng, from now on, I am still Cai Xuefeng, the special supervisory commissioner sent from Chongqing."

"Your route is wrong, isn't it?"

Li Zhifeng reminded: "Those who enter Guangxi from Cangwu must be from Guangdong."

"Ah, is that right?" Meng Shao was originally a road blind person, so he scratched his head: "Damn it, I'm a supervisory commissioner. I'll go to Guangdong for inspection first, and then go to Guangxi, can't I?"

"Okay, why not? You are the boss, whatever you say is okay."

"Stop talking nonsense and find a cleaner hotel quickly. I'm exhausted from this journey."

Meng Shaoyuan yawned, exhausted.

The first impression of entering Guangxi is very good, but what will he see afterward?

Meng Shaoyuan himself didn't even know.
