Glorious Mission 1937

ps: Since Kang Ze will be Chen Feng's main stumbling block for a long time to come, the explanation for Kang Ze is more detailed, and it also involves some sensitive things, and there are many informative things. Sorry everyone! ! !

Chapter 180 Six: Chen Feng's Worries (1) (Please subscribe, ask for a monthly ticket, ask for all kinds!!!)

On March 3, when the Red and Blue Confrontation Troop Training Movement in Chahar Province was in full swing, the Nationalist Government's military purchase team entered Shaanxi via Henan, then crossed the Yellow River east and entered Shanxi, and finally entered the territory of an elite infantry regiment in the World War II zone. Under protection, he entered Yanbei Administrative Region.There were 20 administrative officials accompanying the arms purchase team. Most of these administrative officials were college students who had just graduated, including 458 males and 242 females.

After receiving the telegram from the Nationalist Government, Chen Feng immediately ordered Li Wensheng's 101st Division to send elite troops to Shuo County to meet the Nationalist Government's group going north.

On the 21st, under the protection of the cavalry regiment of the 101st Division, this group of people finally arrived in Xinghe safely, and was warmly welcomed by Chen Feng.That night, Chen Feng received all the local officials who were about to take office at the newly built Chahar Provincial Government Guest House in Xinghe. All the senior officers of the No. 40 Army in Xinghe were present to accompany them.

However, when he learned that Kang Ze, the leader of the national government's arms purchase team and the national government's resident inspection representative, was actually Kang Ze, Chen Feng's whole feeling changed completely. He was very famous in the Anti-Japanese War, but this person's name is not small.This person was even told by Mao Weiren in Yan'an that "peasants cannot forgive Kang Ze".It can be seen that this person is a wonderful flower.

There were other reasons why Chen Feng felt bad. Kang Ze was not as easy to deal with as Xue Qubing and the others.To put it bluntly, there are thousands of officers like Xue Qubing, and Chen Feng can't even blink his eyes, because the two sides are not rivals on the same level at all.Even if the national government sent generals like Xue Yue or Wei Lihuang to Chahar, Chen Feng would not be too worried, because these generals were from orthodox military backgrounds, they had their own conscience and the minimum bottom line of life.

But Chen Feng couldn't see any of these things in Kang Ze, and it wasn't scary at all that this person was just Lao Jiang's confidant.Lao Jiang has tens of thousands of confidantes.There are tens of thousands of people who regard Lao Jiang as Bole.However, Kang Ze was the only one who could be considered by Lao Jiang as his right-hand man or even heir. Even Chen Lifu, Chen Guofu brothers, Dai Li and He Yingqin who always called Lao Jiang "Jiang's third uncle" were far inferior.

In addition, Kang Ze not only acts viciously, but also has extremely clever means. It only took him one year to completely destroy the Jiangxi Soviet Area that "Zhu Mao" devoted himself to building, which is enough to see his means.So the high-level officials in Yan'an have always believed that.There are two main culprits for the destruction of Ruijin.One is Lao Jiang, and the other is Kang Ze.

Kang Ze's method of dealing with the people in the Soviet area was very clever. At that time, the war of the Nationalist government's encirclement and suppression of the Soviet area in Jiangxi gradually expanded.Xue Yue and other military generals fought against the Red Army in the front, while Kang Ze, then captain of the Rangers of the Blue Shirts Society, took the Rangers that had just been organized to the front line centered on Fuzhou and the nearest recovery area. It will act as an interim government here.

The first thing the Rangers started was the organization, protection and armoring of the former peaceful residents in more than 10 counties around the front line.The establishment and establishment of a security system begins with social surveys and household registration surveys.Plainclothes went to the village to find out the basics, and investigated the population and structure of the village, who was "collaborating with the enemy", and whose land was confiscated or divided up.Then, it is the "going to the countryside" of a district team or a unit.Because the Red Army's conscription campaign has been very powerful in the past two years, there are very few strong men in this area.In this way, their small armed forces were hardly resisted.A detachment takes over one or even two or three counties, a squadron takes over market towns, and district teams and detachments go deep into villages.The small half of Jiangxi was taken over by them overnight.

Before they entered the village, almost all the families who had connections with the Soviet area or had children in the Red Army ran away.At this time, orders with Kang Ze's private seal appeared in the form of notices in villages and towns: those who returned to the village in time to "report" and register their household registration were regarded as "timely self-renewal", and the Rangers would not blame the past.Violators "once discovered, the crime will affect the whole family."This barbaric policy of soft-handedness and hard-handedness was very effective. Even Ruijin, the red capital run by the Red Army for a long time, had thousands of "red masses" go to the county government for "rehabilitation."

The fugitive landlords and rich peasants came back in batches, and they quickly became the local folk foundation of the Rangers.Candidates for the head of the insurance company and the director of the joint insurance company are appointed from among these people.After the temporary yamen and the Baojia head came into being, the "standard strategic village" and the Baojia system began to be implemented with astonishing speed and astonishing terror.The dozens of miles around the Soviet area were turned into a ring-shaped "no man's land".With stern eyes, Kang Ze commanded rangers and temporarily recruited soldiers to drive millions of villagers out of their villages, enclosing them in standard "strategic villages" like livestock, and controlling them under the "Baojia System".

This "Baojia system" is one of the most sensational systems in modern history.It stipulates that if any family wants to prove their status as a "good citizen", they must find four guarantees to guarantee that they will not "collaborate with the enemy", will not take in any suspects, and will not provide materials to the Soviet area.The five families are guaranteed to sit together. Those who do not report "if there is any enemy situation" will be shot to death.When one family commits a crime, the family will be destroyed, and the other four families will also be "killed without mercy"!

The decree of "Five Households Lianbao" and "If one family has an accident, the rest will be punished" has achieved remarkable results.In just over a month, the Rangers controlled millions of residents in nearly 20 counties. After the completion of the "strategic village" and the organization and armor, hundreds of thousands of residents were mobilized under the leadership of the Rangers and Baojia Chiefs.Armed with primitive weapons such as "blades, spears, and hoes," they set up tens of thousands of "public interrogation posts" at intersections of all sizes to interrogate and check passers-by.

Measures such as "embargo" and traffic blockade are based on strong civil control and "mobilizing the masses".Formed a clamp on Ruijin.Kang Ze ordered that once the investigation teams found Soviet area traffic officers, second-hand traffickers, and smuggled caravan pack teams, regardless of whether they were suspected of "collaborating with the enemy area" or not, they would all be shot on the spot.Secondly, the inspection team is soft-handed and hard-handed: anyone who colludes with smugglers will be shot; anyone who seizes materials or reports bribery will be rewarded heavily.The heavy reward is to reward the meritorious personnel with "all copying" and a "two-level salary" in succession.

This is just the beginning. With the success of the military, in the second half of 1934, Kang Ze and his Blue Clothes Society had controlled 80% of the towns in Jiangxi, so the "New Jiangxi" proposed by Kang Ze mode" started.Speaking of this "New Jiangxi Model", even Chen Feng had to admire Kang Ze's methods and strategies.He first organized the "Strong Men Team" and "Shoveling Volunteer Team".The purpose is to win over young people and cut off the source of soldiers in the Soviet area.to this end.The Rangers implemented comprehensive and strict control over the millions of young and middle-aged people in Jiangxi.At that time, "all strong men aged 18 and under 45" in Jiangxi rural areas were all incorporated into the strong men's team.The strong men live and go out, and are under comprehensive surveillance.Every morning, the young men's team will go out for exercises, and everyone must come.And it is absolutely forbidden for young men to leave home.

When the sentries, militia, and strong men's organizations are all brought under the control of the Rangers. The appearance of "New Jiangxi" is revealed. "Anhui and Henan emphasize regimental police, Jiangxi emphasizes education" is the policy formulated by Chiang Kai-shek.The two "hundred-year plans" of education and anti-government are the key to the "New Jiangxi" model.

As a result, night schools for boys and girls in each village, "people's checkpoints", strong men's teams, and "communist shoveling volunteer teams" were launched.appear in every village together.They forced all adult men and women to enter the public night school, and each person needs to "know more than 500 Chinese characters."After completing literacy, they were required to memorize and recite the "Handbook for Suppressing Bandits".

The most striking achievement of "New Jiangxi" is basic education.The Rangers built about 2700 schools in Jiangxi, almost every two or three villages had a primary school.These schools were named after "Zhongshan Primary School" and "Zhongzheng Primary School". After more than a year, there were 30 million students enrolled.Combined with public evening schools, Jiangxi has become the most successful province in basic education in the country after two or three years.

The slogans on the dirt wall and the sound of various slogans followed quickly and forcefully.All of a sudden, the chai gates of the earthen walls in Jiangxi were plastered with slogans such as "resist the outside world and secure the inside", "suppress bandits and save the people", "eliminate the Communist Party", and "tightly protect the Jiajia organization".Every morning and evening, those young and strong people who are used to holding hoes are also required to gather at the entrance of the village to recite these slogans.

This kind of subtle "education" is almost as effective as "beating local tyrants and dividing land".At the same time as night schools and primary schools, there are medical stations.Most of the large quantities of medicine mobilized from Shanghai were distributed free of charge to villagers suffering from headaches.It is estimated that during the Jiangxi period, the Rangers set up about 2000 medical stations, benefiting more than 100 million residents.

The ranger's anti-government achievements were unparalleled in the Republic of China.Compared with Deng Wenyi's "Qingliu Storm" in Wuhan and Chiang Ching-kuo's "Tiger Fighting" 15 years later, it is more powerful.It also directs the anti-corruption focus to officials' corruption, extortion, and acceptance of bribes.Report boxes were hung in villages and towns, enabling the Rangers to mobilize tens of millions of people in Jiangxi. In just over a year, it investigated and dealt with 1200 "major corruption cases" and countless minor cases, almost eradicating half of Jiangxi. grassroots**.

Under this series of measures to "militarize" and "partyize" society, the entire Jiangxi society has become a large barracks.This kind of handwriting and momentum was repeated only after more than 30 years.Not only that, they also visited the poor from door to door, provided loans, seeds, introduced pesticides, and provided disaster relief... At the moment when the frontline gunfire continued, there was a momentum of agricultural revival in the half province of Jiangxi.

By the end of 1934, when the Red Army began its epic Long March, spring plowing, cattle buying, fairs, and land transactions gradually appeared in most parts of Jiangxi.Trading cattle and fields is a symbol of the prosperity of the village community. The Rangers seldom collect miscellaneous donations and apportionments, making the people richer than before.

In half a year, the Rangers expanded from three brigades to seven brigades, with more than 7 plainclothes special agents, 1 ordinary members, more than 7 regular troops, and about 3 million residents in Jiangxi.

To be honest, Chen Feng is very jealous of someone like Kang Ze who is so thoughtful and vicious. As an orthodox soldier, Chen Feng thinks he can't compare to Kang Ze's methods. will be good. (To be continued..)
