Chapter 148 no_name

Zhou Yisheng didn't understand what was going on when he heard someone telling him to attack Liu Ba's enclosure.He didn't even take the question to heart at all.This time back to his hometown, Zhou Yisheng's plan was to take his family members to Fengtai to hide from the disaster.If the parents and brothers must bring some relatives and friends, he will also bring these people.Knowing that such a tragedy had happened at home, Zhou Yisheng was in pain.What he wants most now is to go back with his third brother to check on his elder sister's condition.There are military doctors on the fleet of the insurance group, and it is imperative for the doctor to treat my sister.As for breaking Liu Ba's enclosure, or rebelling and killing people.It's not in Liu Yisheng's consideration at all.

But obviously, other folks don't think so.The middle-aged man asked several times, but Zhou Yisheng didn't respond.He simply grabbed Zhou Yisheng's brother Zhou Yizheng. "Sanba, Xiaowu won't listen to me. Tell your brother about it. Everyone will do it now. If you can't make it through today, how many people will starve to death. Sanba, it's not that I don't care about you brothers. Everyone put the last Take out all the food and eat it, how can everyone have the strength to fight around tomorrow?"

Zhou Yizheng had also stopped crying at this time, it wasn't that he wasn't sad.It was the hunger in the past few months and the pain of losing a loved one that had tortured Zhou Yizheng to the point of numbness.He accepted these facts, even if he saw his younger brother, it was impossible to make Zhou Yizheng more sad.Attacking Liu Ba's house was a matter that everyone had already decided on.Zhou Yizheng opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.It's a really weird state of mind.Before his younger brother came back, Zhou Yizheng was also full of indignation, with the courage to break the boat in his heart.What he wants most is not food, but the Zhou family's medicine.There was a doctor in the enclosure, and asked the doctor to see the sick elder sister who was dying and save her.This was Zhou Yizheng's most urgent thought.

Since the flood, the gate of Liu Ba's house has been closed tightly, and no one is allowed to enter.It doesn't matter if you beg or implore.The people in the enclosure didn't pay attention at all.When his sister was sick, Zhou Yi had been kneeling outside the enclosure all morning, shouting at the doctor until his voice became hoarse, but the result was the same as other begging people, and the servants patrolling above the enclosure remained silent.If there must be any changes, it is that the faces of the servants used to have more or less pity for the death of a rabbit and a fox, but now even this expression is completely gone.Now there is nothing else on the servant's face except disgust and disdain.

"Sanba, you are talking." The middle-aged man couldn't help shaking Zhou Yizheng's shoulder vigorously. "Xiao Wu is back, do you think you have a backer? Huh?"

The middle-aged man is an elder in the village, named Zhou Xingrui.Seeing the change in Zhou Yizheng's expression, he had roughly guessed what Zhou Yizheng was thinking, and Zhou Xingrui couldn't help but angrily scolded: "Xiao Wu is dressed clean, it seems that he didn't come back on foot. The people who came with him are also like this , are you thinking that Xiao Wu came back by boat, you and Xiao Wu went home and took your sister away?"

There was anxiety in these words. If it was a normal year, no one could say that Zhou Yizheng did something wrong.But now is a disaster year. It started to rain at the end of spring when there was nothing to harvest. A few months later, there was no food left in the house, and the food planted in the ground was completely drowned.Everyone survived the flood with difficulty, and the disaster never ended.On the contrary, hunger and disease raged more ferociously.If it was a drought, everyone could escape the famine anyway, but the boats were destroyed during the flood.The caravan never came to the disaster area again.In a muddy swamp, there is no place to escape if you want to escape.

Everyone is struggling to live, and people are dying almost every day.The people who have survived until now are completely hungry and weak, and they can walk on the ground anyway, but they don't know how far they need to go if they want to go to a place where they can eat.Occasionally, the outside victims who came here described the same disaster situation as Liujiapu.In many places, people are so hungry that they cannot survive without eating human flesh.

Zhou Xingrui has always been considered a very capable person in these villages. In addition to farming, he also relies on water for food.Although he is not very old, but because of his seniority, this Liujiapu is considered a well-known figure in ten miles and eight villages.The death rate of the elderly and children in the disaster year was extremely high, and now there is no fellow villager who is older or older than Zhou Xingrui.Zhou Xingrui knew that in the current situation, if Zhou Yizheng and Zhou Yisheng brothers were to leave with the person who came with them, the affirmation of the villagers would be lost.

Before the disaster, Zhou Xingrui also took the water to eat. Looking at the clothes of Zhou Yisheng and the insurance company soldier who came with him, he knew that the two must have come by boat, and the boat must not be too small.Everyone can't survive, so they have to fight.If there is any hope of seeing some live shrimps, he will definitely not risk being killed to attack Weizi.The brothers of the Zhou family left, and many people just wanted to try their luck with the brothers of the Zhou family.Once the hearts of the people are scattered, and everyone has an idea in their hearts, how can they work hard?The walls of Liu Ba's family were not easy to beat, even if everyone worked together, they might not be able to beat them down.Not to mention that there is no thought of breaking the boat in everyone's heart?Zhou Xingrui knew that no matter what, the Zhou family brothers could not choose to leave now.

Seeing that Zhou Yizheng was silent, Zhou Xingrui grabbed Zhou Yisheng's shoulder. "Xiao Wu, how do you say that your great-grandfather treats you and your family?" Although Zhou Xingrui is not much older than Zhou Yisheng, his seniority is much higher. "Everyone's life is in your hands now. You say something."

Zhou Yisheng can't figure out what's going on now, and he doesn't even have the idea to figure it out.He had stopped crying at this moment, raised his head and said drowsily: "Master, I have to go home and see my sister first. I want to see my sister first."

"Bastard!" Zhou Xingrui slapped Zhou Yisheng on the face angrily, "Xiao Wu, your sister's life is your life, so everyone's life is not your life?"

Zhou Xingrui has always been considered a very capable person in the village, and he has experience living by water.He knew exactly what it would be like when the heart was broken.Momentary anger may allow everyone to burst out of strength for a short time.But as long as this power has the slightest other thoughts, it will disappear without a trace in an instant.Zhou Xingrui is not a violent person.In this Liujiapu, those who are interested in violence are now under Liu Ba's command.Naturally, it was impossible for Liu Ba to recruit thugs to choose those honest characters.Those who are too dishonest either die or run away.Zhou Xingrui is really the only one who can sustain the disaster victims now.

It's not that Zhou Xingrui didn't think that the people who came with Zhou Yisheng might have food, but he knew very well that the food was not enough.The folks are dying every day, and their bodies are getting weaker and weaker. What is the use of that little food?Thinking of this, Zhou Xingrui couldn't help but clenched his pistol tightly. If Zhou Yisheng refused to live and die with everyone, even if Zhou Yisheng and Zhou Yizheng brothers were killed here together, he would go with everyone to break Liu Ba's siege.Only in the enclosure can hundreds of thousands of people survive the disaster year and survive until next year to re-cultivate and harvest the grain.

Lu Zhengping has been watching with cold eyes, but it doesn't mean that he just stands there stupidly.Lu Zhengping participated in the battle against Yue Zhangji as a scout of the insurance regiment a few months ago.However, he didn't take part in the battle to conquer Zhang Youliang's encirclement in person.This pick-up mission is a big event, so the insurance group has mobilized elite soldiers and strong generals.The reconnaissance troops, which were not many in number, were almost dispatched in full force.Lu Zhengping remembered that at the mobilization meeting of the insurance regiment before the dispatch, the political commissar of the water detachment was supposed to mobilize before the battle, but it was temporarily changed to He Zudao, the political commissar of the regiment, to mobilize in person.

He Zudao didn't come here to emphasize discipline. If he only emphasized military discipline or ordinary ideological mobilization, there would be no need for a political commissar of his level.At the mobilization meeting, He Zudao only talked about two issues.First, you will definitely see a lot of tragic social reality when you go out this time, and comrades must be mentally prepared.This question really made these scouts somewhat at a loss for what to say.

Although the reconnaissance force was the elite of the insurance group, the scope of activities of the insurance group did not exceed the boundaries of Fengtai County too much.Although everyone has some understanding of the surrounding situation, most of the landlords in the era of 1906 had one characteristic. Very few landlords owned land across county boundaries.The government and the landlords are not completely collude, even from the point of view of the ruling class, there are still many contradictions within the ruling class.Landlords own land across county boundaries, which means they are subject to more government jurisdiction.This extortion will only increase.And because of poor basic water conservancy facilities, the land across counties is not actually a big farm at all.More land does not bring corresponding benefits.

The insurance group's primary goal is to consolidate its rule in Fengtai County, so the reconnaissance force is only operating within Fengtai County at this stage.Since they are active in the county, it is not that everyone is completely ignorant of the tragic situation outside, but they only know a little.He Zudao told everyone with a serious expression that he would see many horrible situations, and the soldiers of the reconnaissance unit did not have much sensory knowledge.

Moreover, when the reconnaissance team set off, large-scale refugees had not poured into Fengtai County. For these capable comrades, it is unimaginable how miserable the outside world will be.Anyway, the soldiers of the insurance regiment already feel that the current life is miserable.There is nothing else to do except work every day.It can be said that they have not worked so hard since they were young.One of the reasons why morale can be maintained in such a difficult job is that the political commissars will always inform everyone about the significance of each job.Build ditches, dig sand, plow and level the land.Like other farmers in 1906, the warriors had never plowed such a vast expanse of land to look around.And those cadres and political commissars who worked as hard as them and convinced the soldiers would always tell them how a brand new world would be revealed in this land in the near future.

Although the soldiers may not understand these propagandas, they may not believe them.But the food we eat every day is always real.The results of everyday work are always real.Now that life can go on, everyone will gradually get used to this kind of life.

So seeing the tragic situation in Zhou Yisheng's hometown, and seeing the miserable conditions of those emaciated people, apart from the eyes still rolling, everyone revealed nothing but despair.The work in Fengtai County is hard, and the food is not good.But I haven't seen anyone who can be so hungry.Seeing the Zhou family brothers hug each other and cry, there are only three of the seven or eight people in the family.According to that meaning, the sister who is still alive is also on the verge of death.Fengtai County was not without population loss in the flood, but as long as it was within the sphere of influence of the insurance group, the population loss was not serious.In fact, Lu Zhengping's family also lost a younger brother.The death of his younger brother was a scene that Lu Zhengping would never forget. In a room filled with the smell of lime water, the doctor sighed, and said to Lu Zhengping's family anxiously surrounding him, "Prepare for the funeral." Then he went to Looking after other patients.

Lu Zhengping's younger brother had a persistent high fever, pale face, and chapped lips.The mother kept changing the cloth strips used to cool down, and used a clean broken bowl to feed the younger brother with water.But the younger brother finally died amidst the crying of relatives.There were bitter cries and frugal mourning.The insurance group repeatedly told everyone the fact that there was a catastrophic epidemic after the catastrophe.Therefore, the corpses are cremated uniformly, and the ashes are stored in simple urns and stored in public mourning halls.Mother can even go to mourn every seventh day.This kind of normal life and death still exists in Fengtai County.

Just leaving Fengtai County, everything that should have been completely overturned.Lu Zhengping and Zhou Yizheng were not familiar with each other, and it was even the first time they spoke today.Therefore, Lu Zhengping didn't care too much about Zhou Yizheng's grief.The seemingly indifferent look on his face was just the result of shock.Why is Fengtai County safe and sound, and why life in a foreign country, which is only three or four days away from Fengtai by boat, is so terrible.He had also seen such sandy land in Fengtai, but tens of thousands of people changed the appearance of such land in just a dozen days.Lu Zhengping even had an illusion that this sand-covered land might be cursed?

When he heard that the people were going to break the siege, Lu Zhengping immediately recalled the scene when the insurance group broke Zhang Youliang's siege.That's a team of six or seven hundred strong men, everyone has weapons, at least there are almost two hundred firearms.Under the leadership of the troops, Lu Zhengping saw the huge gap caused by the explosives that exploded Zhang Youliang's enclosure.He was deeply shocked by the terrible power.The thick and high wall of several feet was blasted wide open.Not to mention Hua Xiongmao and Xu Dian went in and caught Zhang Youliang.Even if it was a hard attack, Zhang Youliang's enclosure would definitely not be able to resist.

Looking at those people who were as thin as dry sticks, Lu Zhengping didn't think that these people could make a living.

The voice of He Zudao asking the second question echoed in Lu Zhengping's mind. "Do you want to save these people? Everyone has compassion, but how can we save these people. I hope everyone can think about it."

How to save the people?It is absolutely impossible to take them to Fengtai.How many ships will be needed to transport nearly a thousand people alone?Although he didn't know how the other places around him were, but after looking at the Liu's shop, Lu Zhengping knew that it would definitely not be much better.Even if the insurance group can ship these victims to Fengtai County, how many people along the Huai River alone need to be rescued?If Fengtai County really has so much food, everyone is sure that they can eat better.The soldiers of the insurance regiment were only [-]% full. How could there be food for so many victims?

And Lu Zhengping absolutely didn't want to do that.Why should I work so hard to let these unrelated disaster victims eat?

The insurance group can't save these people, and there seems to be only one road left.The middle-aged man who claimed to be Zhou Yisheng's great-grandfather said that he wanted to break the siege, and Lu Zhengping agreed with it from the bottom of his heart.After breaching the fence of Zhang Youliang's house, the grain copied out was enough to feed tens of thousands of people half-starved and half-satisfied for half a month.If he could break the siege of Liu Ba, who had never met, even if the food was only half of that of Zhang Youliang's family, or even less.It will also allow everyone to live until next year.The middle-aged man who claimed to be Zhou Yisheng's great grandfather saw things clearly.

Lu Zhengping suddenly thought of a problem that he hadn't thought about before. Brigadier Chen Ke hasn't touched other landlords so far, which doesn't mean he won't move in the future. When it comes to critical moments, forcing them to take out food can also temporarily relieve the urgent need .And the harvest of the insurance group is in sight, and everyone has something to look forward to.Now the people need only food.The insurance group now has more than 8000 troops, tens of thousands of people who can be used, and the landlords dare not refuse.As long as the people are led, no one will be able to provoke them.

Looking up at the emaciated victims in Liujiapu, Lu Zhengping felt that his idea might be wrong again.If these common people could organize themselves during the flood, the enclosure of Liu Ba's family would not be worth mentioning at all.But they don't.If they can organize themselves after the flood, they might be able to fight.But they didn't.Now that these people have nothing to do but break through the siege, they are already powerless.

As a soldier in the reconnaissance unit, Lu Zhengping has received a lot of military training.The training of the insurance regiment is not just for the soldiers to fight with their heads down.They also need to make soldiers understand how to fight.Lu Zhengping felt that it didn't take much, as long as [-] soldiers from the insurance regiment were enough to easily and completely solve the nearly [-] disaster victims.It doesn't matter how many guns these victims have.

Political commissar He Zudao asked everyone how to save these disaster victims.Lu Zhengping has now figured out the answer.As long as there is brigade commander Chen Ke, political commissar He Zudao, regimental commander Hua Xiongmao, and county magistrate Wangshan.As long as the People's Party and the Insurance Group in Fengtai County can be copied, the people will survive.Brigadier Chen Ke squeezed these people into a ball, and in this group, everyone became more powerful.And the more people who join, the more powerful the collective will be.

The people in front of Lu Zhengping were like the sandy land under his feet.Although there are many sand grains, they cannot be kneaded together.Just step on it and it will collapse.Even if these people can break the siege, it is absolutely impossible for them to operate like an insurance group, and it is impossible for them to be like the current Fengtai County.

Without a strong leader, there is no effective organization.What if I am temporarily full?Lu Zhengping saw with his own eyes how much farm work the insurance group and the common people did together.Now he absolutely does not believe that these disaster victims can do it.Even if the fence is broken, the people will immediately disperse the food after dividing it.It is basically impossible to get them together again.Lu Zhengping knew very well that even a person like himself who was loyal to Brigadier Chen Ke and convinced leaders at all levels still didn't like the heavy and endless work.If it weren't for the cadres at all levels to repeatedly explain the meaning of these beliefs, and try their best to let everyone see the results as soon as possible every time, and gradually accumulate everyone's trust, such a heavy labor would not be able to last for so long.

"If you want to save the people, you must completely copy the new system in Fengtai County. Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for the people to be saved." These were the last words of Political Commissar He Zudao, which Lu Zhengping did not understand at the time. , but after seeing the reality of Liujiapu with his own eyes, he recalled all the things that happened in Fengtai County in the past six months.Lu Zhengping felt that he understood.He finally understood that when Brigadier Chen Ke brought the comrades of the People's Party to Fengtai County, when the People's Party formed the army of the Insurance Corps, and when Brigadier Chen Ke told everyone that the Insurance Corps is a team of the people, It starts from the moment we work for the welfare of the people.The people in Fengtai County were rescued.

As long as Brigadier Chen Ke leads everyone to carry out the new system he promotes, whether there is a natural disaster or not, the common people are destined to live a good life.Although Lu Zhengping hadn't seen what brigade commander Chen Ke and political commissar He Zudao had said about the good life.But at this moment, he firmly believes that the huge and weird picture near Yuezhangji shows endless farmland, beautiful roads, canals everywhere, and neat big houses.The kind of life that the BJP comrades preached was destined to be realized.

Facing a group of desperate victims, Lu Zhengping unexpectedly felt the hope of life.And I firmly believe that I can live a good life.He didn't feel the inconsistency between the harsh external environment and his inner beautiful vision.Lu Zhengping is not a psychologist, and he has never even heard of the term "psychology".If psychologists could know what Lu Zhengping was thinking at this time, perhaps they would explain it this way—human beings yearn for a better life because of their fear of the real world.
