Chapter 97 Inspection (2)

Although the negotiations between East China and Russia ended in April, East China had already established its own rule in most parts of the Northeast and launched a war to suppress bandits, not only clearing out most of the bandit forces in the Northeast, but also some local forces between officials and bandits. Some of them, such as Zhang Zuolin, Feng Linge, Ma Longtan, etc., were taken in by the People's Army and expanded their own power. In addition, they also cleaned up some of the remaining bureaucrats and local traditional forces in the Qing court.

Although the remaining bureaucrats and local traditional forces in the Qing court were not willing to give up, and wanted to bargain with East China and retain some power, East China did not give them this opportunity at all. Moreover, East China is in a strong position and nothing can be done. Of course, if we want to remove the remaining bureaucrats of the Qing court, it is impossible to eliminate all local traditional forces. A considerable number of remaining bureaucrats of the Qing court who chose to surrender. Local traditional forces actually had the idea of ​​temporarily submitting and waiting for the opportunity, but at the goal, they did not pose any threat to East China's rule in the Northeast. It can be said that East China now has absolute ruling authority in the Northeast.

Both social order and production have been restored, and the economy and commerce have naturally resumed development. Moreover, the governance and efficiency of East China are much more efficient and inefficient than the Qing court. At the same time, several projects in the Second Five-Year Plan have also been launched in the Northeast region, which has also driven the local economic development. Therefore, from a general perspective, the Northeast region not only basically completely restored the social order and production before the war, but the economy and commerce are more dynamic than before the war.

Qin Zheng's inspection plan was to first arrive in Harbin, and then follow the Binzhou Line of the Central and Eastern Railway and the Binsui Line to inspect cities such as Qiqihar, Harbin, Mudanjiang, Suifenhe, Vladivostok. This line is located in the northern region and is the least populous, the most desolate and the most backward in the northeast. In the old time and space, the area called the "Great Northern Wilderness" was basically built along the railway line.

However, the elders all knew that the land in this area was fertile and rich in resources, and as long as it was developed, it had great economic value. Therefore, before the war was over, a development plan was formulated, using the prisoners captured from Japan to open collective farms for collective development. At this time, East China had established 18 farms in this area, with the number of people in each farm between 30,000 and 40,000, all of which were managed by the army. Of course, most of the farms are still in the construction stage and have not been formally developed. A farm of 340,000 people was not easily established.

Qin Zheng not only inspected these cities, but also randomly selected 5 farms. Since the establishment time was early and late, some farms were still under construction, but some farms had basically completed construction and started development. Of course, it was mainly for forest deforestation, drainage, construction of water conservancy facilities, and supporting land for farming, and did not officially start farming. However, it was not so easy to develop the Beidahuang area. In the old time and space, China spent decades to develop the Beidahuang and immigrated more than 2 million. After several generations of efforts, it turned the Beidahuang and became the Beida warehouse, one of the main grain-producing areas.

The operations of these farms that Qin Zheng checked were basically normal. The Japanese who worked on the farm were in good spirits and were still energetic. There were basically no people who escaped. Of course, in this area, the escaped farm was a wilderness, with no people for dozens of miles of people, and there was almost no way to live. Moreover, these Japanese people were basically at the bottom of society in Japan, living in poverty, not even having enough food to eat, and they were used to working. The intensity of the farm work was similar to that of their time in Japan, and the management was not very strict. If you do well, there would be a certain reward, and it could ensure that everyone was full. Bijing East China ** did not want to treat these Japanese as consumables, but long-term durables. Therefore, except for lack of freedom, other conditions were not much different from Japan. In some aspects, it was better.

Of course, the climate and environment of the Great Northern Wilderness are very harsh. In winter, the dripping water turns into ice, and the wind and snow are raging; in summer, wild beasts are swamped, and mosquitoes and flies are formed into formations. However, this is not unbearable for the Japanese who have experienced earthquakes, tsunamis and typhoons all year round.

However, this harsh climate and environment led to a high mortality rate. At this time, the total death toll of more than 2,000 people on the farm. With the full development of development, the number of deaths may increase. However, there is no way to do so. To develop on this land with harsh climate and environment, this is a price that must be paid. In the old time and space, a large number of deaths also occurred when the Great Northern Wilderness was developed.

Overall, Qin Zheng was very satisfied with the work of the farm. At this development speed, after the end of the Second Five-Year Plan, the development work can basically achieve initial results and lay a certain good foundation. Then gradually immigrate here and further develop. It is expected that although it will not reach the level of time travel within 20-30 years, it will be possible to achieve significant results.

After the inspection of the Binzhou Line and the Binsui Line, Qin Zheng took a train south in Harbin to continue the inspection. Here, Qin Zheng received a special product he ordered, six sled dogs that he had just been born.

It turned out that after Luo Yue returned to Qingdao, he often told his children about the battle stories of this Far East War at home. Once, he said that the sled dog helped the troops transport supplies. The children just listened to it as a new story, but it aroused Zhou Weiying's interest because she knew that this sled dog was a husky dog ​​called "Erha" in the old time and space. Although the husky has always been known for being cute, stupid, difficult to train and dismantle, it is a very popular pet dog and is deeply loved by adults and children.

In the old time and space, Zhou Weiying wanted to raise a husky, but at that time she was either in school or in the army, so of course she could not raise a dog. But when Luo Yue said this, she immediately aroused this wish. Now there are 5 children at home, and raising some pets can also give the children more playmates. Of course, with the current conditions of Qin Zheng's family, it is absolutely affordable to raise a few huskys and have a place. So Zhou Weiying contacted Qin Zheng and asked him to buy 5 or 6 little huskys back.

Qin Zheng had no objection to raising dogs, and raising some pets can also cultivate children's love and responsibility, which is beneficial to the growth of children. Of course, this is not a matter of violation of principles. Therefore, he asked the Harbin garrison to buy a few puppies.

Sled dogs were actually one of the trophys seized by the People's Army from the Russian army, with more than a thousand seized. In the battle of raiding Boli and capturing the Amur River Basin in the late East China period, these sled dogs were used to assist the troops in transporting supplies, which played an important role. It also made the People's Army realize that these sled dogs still play a considerable role in transporting supplies in such harsh climates as northeastern Northeast. Therefore, they also included sled dogs in the formal establishment of the army. On the one hand, the existing sled dogs were properly fed and trained; on the other hand, they tried to buy more sled dogs from Russia to ensure the formation of ethnic groups. In the first batch, 500 small sled dogs were bought.

In fact, many veteran officers and veterans working in the Northeast also like husky very much and ask the troops for dogs. The troops simply marked the price clearly and bought them with money if they wanted to raise dogs. The price was not low. A sled dog of 300 silver dollars was much higher than the price purchased from Russia. Of course, the money for the veterans was nothing. Therefore, Qin Zheng was not the only one who bought the dogs. Now he bought more than 20. However, Qin Zheng bought the most and bought 6 at once. Bi Jing’s family had many children. This time he took the train from Harbin and took them back along the way.

These six puppies are 3-4 months old, with short legs and short mouths, and cute Dada. Qin Zheng is not a person who likes dogs, but he also likes these puppies very much, so he took the puppies on the train and handed the puppies to the female staff who accompanied him to take care of them and left Harbin.

Then Qin Zheng took a train to go south along the Harbin-Da Line and inspected Changchun, Jilin, Siping, Tieling, Liaoyang, Lushun and other places in succession. After heading south, it entered the boundary of Liaoning Province, which is the Northeast social and economically developed areas. Therefore, the content of Qin Zheng's inspection was not only about society, economy, but also about land reform. However, the Northeast region is vast and sparsely populated, and the land conflicts should be eased relatively. Even in Liaoning Province, which has the smallest area and the largest population, the proportion of self-cultivated farmers is much higher than that in the Guandong. On the other hand, it is certainly because of the smallest population and the large number of land. On the other hand, it is also because of the influx of a large number of immigrants from the Guandong area. They have all cultivated land and planted themselves, resulting in a large number of self-cultivated farmers, and the immigration time is not long, so the land annexation situation is not too serious.

However, self-cultivated farmers have not much land, and the quality of the land is relatively poor, because good land has long been occupied by the original local forces in the Northeast region. In addition, land annexation in the Northeast region has never stopped, and there are still a large number of hired farmers. Therefore, the land distribution system of East China is still welcomed by farmers and has won a lot of support from the people. Moreover, due to the remaining bureaucrats of the Qing court in the Northeast region, the traditional local forces have been greatly weakened and basically have no ability to resist. Some local forces that defected to East China, such as Zhang Zuolin, Feng Linge, Ma Longtan and others, when they defected to the negotiations, East China has already explained to them that the land must be taken away by East China, but they only provide appropriate compensation to them, so there is no objection.

Although some people used this as a reason to incite several people to unite to oppose the East China **, and even rebelled, these people all understood that they were powerless to confront the East China **, and rebelled was seeking death. Moreover, these things had been agreed long ago, and there was no reason to oppose them at this time, so they did not have this hook.
