Someone said: "Zhang Dahu, you don't have many children in your family and you have the most daughters. Why don't you marry a few short-haired men? This father-in-law has done a good job!"
Zhang Dahu is Zhang Youfu, who can be regarded as the representative of Guodu in the county. At this time, he drank a few more glasses. This wine was sent from Guangzhou and was called "Guo Shi Wushuang". It was very mellow and not as easy to get on your head as earth-shake. Zhang Youfu had already drank too much and was feeling dizzy. He said with a smile: "That's right. No matter how many daughters I have, I can't marry into such a baseless family -"
"How do you say it has no foundation? This family's industry will probably be the first in Lingao in the future." A landowner shook his head and sighed, "Let's just talk about this ice lion. I have never seen it in Lingao. ! I really don’t know where they get the ice. Even in Guangzhou, only the first-class people can get it!”
"It is said that it was transported from Bopu, so I was confused. Can ice be fished out from the sea?"
"Maybe it's their sorcery that caused it." Someone whispered, "These short-haired people are very evil. Those automatic cars and iron oxen, let alone the iron boats, there are no sails or oars... …How can it be activated without the power of ghosts and gods?”
"But I've never seen them do this in a forum!"
"Can I let you know about this? Maybe there are boys and girls inside -"
"Boys and girls? The county has not heard of any missing boys or girls."
"Then why are they transporting children boat by boat from the mainland? Are they raising maids and servants? Do they need a lot of them?"
"A thief, a maid and a boy. It's over a thousand. You're a boy and a girl. I think you're crazy because you're burning pills and want to be a god."
"Fairy? I think this short-haired guy is almost like a god in his days!"
"That's true, but coming here is really a life well spent!" A landowner looked up at the chandelier on the ceiling, stared at it for a long time before sighing, "I saw so many unfamiliar things and ate so many Something I haven’t eaten before—I’ll have to bring my wife and children to experience it in the future.”
Although the atmosphere in the banquet hall was warm and it looked like the two parties were intimate, in fact, things inside and outside the business building were tense: the Army, the political security department and the police were all on alert. Be prepared for possible situations at any time.
Compared with the pampered conference delegates, the security department is more worried about their attachés - most of these more than 400 people are young and strong, and it will be a big trouble if they get messed up. In order to prevent their activities in Dongmen City from causing quarrels and causing trouble, all these people were gathered together in the name of entertainment in the evening, and each person was given a box lunch, but there was no wine. Inside was a plainclothes team led by Zhou Shizhai, mixing among the crowd and keeping an eye on their movements.
"Everyone, stay calm!" Dugu proposed in a low voice, wearing a black stab-proof suit. He was surrounded by an emergency team composed of the Dongmen City Police Station and the Bairen Commune militia. They all wore rattan helmets and rattan vests, and were armed with sticks and shields, ready to suppress him at any time.
"I said, is it necessary to face a powerful enemy like this?" Dongmen Chuiyu felt that it was too much. There is also a 6th Army infantry company and 6 12-pound mountain howitzers on standby in the camp outside Dongmen City, all loaded with ammunition.
Fang Jinghan sneered and said: "Humph, if these hundreds of natives make a fuss, can we suppress it? This is the heart of the country." He was seconded from the remote exploration team to join the emergency team - because he understands many dialects , it is easy to shout out when something happens.
The dinner for the two groups inside and outside finally ended harmoniously. The attendants who were squatting in the open space outside eating box lunches naturally didn't know that there were hundreds of people watching eagerly and ready to deal with their group at any time, and they all felt that the short-haired people entertained them well.
Then in the afternoon of the next day, a meeting was held to celebrate the defeat of Liu Xiang's gangster at the newly completed Bairen Stadium. Originally, the Executive Committee had long wanted to do it. The original plan was just to hold a small-scale ceremony and award the combatants with prizes and medals. However, the political consultation and business association meeting made them change their minds. The purpose of holding the exchange meeting with the leading figures in each village was to expand their influence to the surrounding areas. Taking advantage of this opportunity to defeat the pirates, these leading figures on the ground should be given a look at time travel. Fang’s powerful strength and unique mental outlook. Decided to do a two-in-one in turn. Not only should we hold a business association meeting, but we should also hold a celebration party and hold a military parade.
It is for this purpose that the construction of the large stadium is rushed. In fact, the construction volume of the stadium so far is only just over one-half. Although a considerable part is still unfinished, the main facilities have been completed. According to this time and space, the height of the stadium The standards seem ambitious enough.
A temporary wooden terraced stand was erected in the stadium and was filled with delegates. Even their entourages were allowed to enter and sit in the stands slightly away from the rostrum. Wu Dejibairen Commune and the labor team also took a day off to organize everyone to watch the ceremony. There was no room in the stands, so there were many people standing behind the lime line. Adults, children, and women are so lively. Representatives from each village looked curiously at the tall stone building that had not been seen in front of them (actually it was covered with stones outside and a large, grass-free, compacted open space under the feet) - vertical and horizontal dividing lines were drawn with lime powder. Many mounds and wooden stakes were erected in the open space by the river, and everyone was guessing what the shorthairs were going to do.
The entire auditorium was filled with colorful flags fluttering in the breeze, the same kind of colorful nylon flags that would fly everywhere during festivals in another time and space. Around the stands, soldiers of the Army stood erect in military uniforms, armed with bayonets.
The crowd in the stands had a different mood. The army officers and soldiers wearing gray octagonal hats, gray military uniforms and leggings cannot help but remind people of the undefeated myth of the army that grew from weak to strong in different time and space. Although I understand that it is impossible to copy the same army, I still use it as a benchmark in my heart to measure the army in front of me that was created and armed by the people who traveled through time and is completely their own.
It was called a celebration meeting, but it was actually a general meeting to demonstrate to the county and surrounding gentry. It started under the warm sunshine of Hainan winter.
The sound of the tweeter gave the villagers and gentlemen their first surprise. When Wen Desi loudly announced in his out-of-tune Mandarin of Lingao accent that the Commendation Ceremony for the Battle of Bopu and the Celebration Ceremony for the Establishment of the Bairen Security Group were about to begin, the villagers and elders looked up in surprise. The person clearly speaking Standing on the stage, why did the sound come from the high poles on all sides, and it was so painful that the eardrums were buzzing. This rough effect is completely different from the speakers in a movie theater placed on both sides of the rostrum.
First, commendations were given to those who made contributions in the Battle of Bopu, and 75 naval and military personnel including Lin Shenhe, Bai Yu, Mond, and Wang Ruixiang were awarded the "Bopu Defense War" armband. They have the right to sew this armband on their uniforms to reflect their combat honors.
One hundred and ten non-military personnel including Dugu Sui, Tan Ming, and Qian Shuixie were awarded the "Bu Pu Defense War" shield, which can be sewn on any official uniform.
Subsequently, it was announced that all 6 navy soldiers and laborers who participated in the Battle of Bopu would be awarded the "Bopu Defense War" commemorative medal and an additional month of military pay. At the same time, 35 soldiers and laborers who were particularly outstanding in the battle would be awarded. They will be awarded the second-level and third-level military merit medals respectively, and receive two months and one month more military pay respectively.
In addition to being buried in the "Cuigang Martyrs Cemetery" with military rites, all 6 naval soldiers and laborers who died in the war will also receive pensions from the executive committee to their families. The direct family members of the fallen personnel can each receive a circulation coupon of 500 yuan per year: Children All income will be paid to the "Chung Si School", and all food, accommodation and clothing expenses will be borne by the Executive Committee. The parents of the deceased will be responsible for the funeral arrangements after their death by the Democratic Front Committee.
This pension level can be said to be unprecedented. Not only the representatives at the meeting were dumbfounded, but also the soldiers, commune members and workers found it unbelievable. Generally speaking, regardless of whether they are officers, soldiers, local warriors, or even pirates and bandits, after a person is killed in a battle, they must provide compensation to the families of their fallen brothers. It is nothing more than giving pens and selling money. At most, there is a difference between how much and how little. But this is the first time I heard of such meticulous care for the bereaved.
"One person's death is worth so much money!" Everyone in Lingao County gasped when Wen Desi said it loudly and it was translated into various dialects. This was really unheard of, even those who had read some books. People only know the story of soldiers marching forward bravely through a last-ditch battle and threatening death, and they also understand that there must be brave men under heavy rewards - but these are all for living people, and dead soldiers are of no use to them at all. It's useless. Giving some pension to the family is already a great grace. No one has ever been willing to spend so much money on a soldier's life.
At this point, everyone in Lingao County began to realize that the army there must be very different from the army and bandits of the Ming Dynasty - the lives of their soldiers were very valuable!
"This is probably nonsense. It deceives those ignorant people into working for them." Huang Hankun continued his propaganda. To be honest, he himself didn't quite believe it - if the Australians fought like this, their court would have gone bankrupt long ago, unless Australia was filled with gold and silver.
"I said it in public, An Neng said it casually." Huang Hankun didn't recognize the person who said this. He looked like a poor scholar, but he definitely didn't go to school. He was a scholar who had gone to school, so naturally he was interested in it. This kind of scholar without fame is looked down upon, and he was about to laugh at him. A representative who looked like a small landowner said:
"I don't think it's just a casual comment. There are still more honest people in Shorthair." He said that he went to the mill here in Lingao to grind grain. Every time it was ground, Shorthair separated the brown rice, chaff and chaff. After filling the bags, he weighed them one by one for inspection, and then collected the money according to the price. “There has never been any forgery in it.” He praised, “Based on this alone, I think what they say is credible! "! ~!
