Jingshi, Dongcheng District, Luoyang.

Colonel One-Eyed patrolled the various areas, checking some details from time to time to see how well he was working.

For some of the issues found, just document them. If necessary, rectification will be carried out on the spot. Because any negligence will lead to the occurrence of a greater undesirable situation.

Many people just looked at it, and after whispering about it, they didn't say anything more. Because the One-Eyed Colonel is definitely not a figure they can provoke.

Under the strong control of Colonel One-Eyed, Dongcheng District has done a lot of rectification.

The streets of the entire Dongcheng district have become much cleaner, and although some garbage points have not yet been cleared, they are already registered, and it will probably not take long to clear them.

The people in the area are also divided to a certain extent according to the size of the number of people, they are gathered in a certain area in units of 100 households, because there are too many people gathered in Dongcheng District, and in some special areas, double-storey, or even multi-storey beds will be used to provide accommodation. This can drastically reduce the number of houses and the negative impact of living on the streets.

The prevention and control of diseases is also extremely strict, and people in the city are constantly spreading lime. At the same time, according to the unit of 1,000 people, the bathhouse bathing is arranged in a centralized manner, and the simple way is to issue a bathing ticket. If you don't take a shower for a certain amount of time, you will have to reduce your food rations. This trick is the most powerful move for the people in the region.

Because a lot of people gather here. If they don't get enough food, their condition will deteriorate. If you don't eat it, it will be extremely uncomfortable.

Don't think that the IRA is just a simple distribution card, and everyone has to eat according to their household registration card. Food is strictly rationed. If you take it, the punishment is very large, and it is not only hard labor. There is also a penalty for a certain amount of food rations. This is for anyone. It's all hard to accept. With such strict control, their situation is naturally under control, after all, controlling food is stuck in everyone's neck.

After the one-eyed colonel came. Immediate and strong measures were taken to solve more problems, and the household registration system was forcibly introduced, and at the same time, the food ration was linked to the household registration, so that the food could reach everyone to the greatest extent possible, and there would be no fraudulent collection of food that had occurred in the past, and the order was also greatly improved, because the food was distributed concretely.

And that's not all. The sanitary situation has also been greatly arranged, after all, many places are aware of some of their specific actions, otherwise, actions that do not know any situation will have serious consequences. These measures have been extremely effective.

After the implementation of the household registration system. Other cases have also been further developed. For example, the militia. The number has grown rapidly from 2,000 to 17,000, and with these people, order has been greatly improved. But that's not enough. Even, in many cases, these things have not changed to a greater extent for the time being.

Colonel One-Eyed was still worried, and he felt very helpless.

The constant supply of food is coming up. Although there will be some trouble, it doesn't taste very good because it is emergency food provided, and it is difficult to eat. But it can keep everyone fed. But is everything going well just by having a full stomach? It's still not enough. Because a lot of people have nothing to do. Even though this is their ideal state, doing nothing can still cause them a lot of harm. There's no economic growth, there's no entertainment, and there's nothing to vent about.

The most important thing is the worker, he needs to get these people to work, and only by working can they make everything better. Clean up garbage and keep the streets clean and tidy. There is no need for any more people, and although the militia has expanded a lot, in reality, most of them are young people with sticks, and they still lack effective weapons and training. When fighting, it's good that they don't run.

Here they also lack factories, lack of jobs, lack of more weapons and equipment, and training. Colonel One-Eyed was not at all pleased to see that the situation had improved markedly, for he had been put in a state of great disadvantage in many things, and in such a situation they were in a state of great disadvantage.

The only way he could do this was to send a telegram demanding that the problem be resolved.

Lijiazhuang. War Department.

"Obviously, this is a perfunctory situation, and the newspaper is absolutely right about it." Jia Xu said as he took a newspaper and handed it to Shang Wu. Shang Wu looked at the title and put it aside. He had already read the newspapers. Regarding Dong Zhuo's attitude, the news media's views are extremely consistent.

They believe that this is a perfunctory attitude of Dong Zhuo. They didn't take it seriously at all, the real culprits were still at large, and all they handed over was some poor scapegoats.

Such an attitude naturally made the people of the Republican Army feel very dissatisfied, because it was only an attitude of coping, and as long as this attitude persisted, there would be more similar things, and then things would become extremely uncontrollable, and in such a situation, this would be an important situation that was simply difficult to control, and in the face of such a situation, it would cause extremely serious losses to anyone. In particular, the safety of their person and property.

"It's really perfunctory." Shang Wu said.

"But for now, even if we continue to oppose it, the other side will not attract more attention." Shang Wu said.

"According to the latest intelligence gathering, the Kwantung coalition forces have intensified their offensive, and they have broken through three lines of defense. And Dong Zhuo's troop investment is getting smaller and smaller, which means that Bishui Pass will become the last line of defense. It's a kind of pressure. Dong Zhuo's attention is there, but we don't need to pay attention to us at all. Shang Wu said.

"Unless, our troops directly cross the Taihang Mountains and appear directly on the north bank of the Yellow River, only in this way can some of their actions be affected." Shang Wu said.

"It seems that there is no use in resisting, right?" Jia Xu said.

"So, my view is that we can directly use force to fight such a thing, but in order to better disguise our purpose, the best thing to do is to follow the method of the exercise. This can effectively cover up our military operations. Shang Wu said.

Jia Xu recorded. Only by sending troops to threaten can Dong Zhuo realize the seriousness of the problem. But none of this is important, the important thing is that the IRA needs a reason to send troops, and as for the specifics, he is not very clear, but for him, these are enough.

"However, there are a couple of issues that we need to be aware of, and in the direction of Zezhou, our roads are still in poor condition. The conditions of passage are still not up to the quality of our two infantry divisions, as well as the supply of logistical supplies. Jia Xu said.

"In addition, in Luoyang, the capital division, we established the relevant militia, the situation there has indeed been greatly improved, but it is only an improvement, the militia is only more than 10,000 people, most of them lack combat experience, weapons are also extremely insufficient, many militia only have sticks to use. Even with bare hands. At most, they protect themselves, and let them block the Bishui Pass and block the Kwantung coalition army, which seems to be an extremely impossible thing. Jia Xu said.

Shang Wu nodded. These problems are indeed a big problem, because many things really cannot be solved in a short period of time, which is an extremely crazy approach for anyone.

"Our situation has been in a very unfavorable situation, and in such a situation, it will become much more unfavorable for us." Shang Wu said. The specific conditions did not allow the Republican Army to mobilize their military forces at once, which was obviously an extremely bad condition.

"That's true, especially on the Luoyang side, the number of militias can be expanded, after all, they are strengthening their organizational capabilities and can be expanded to a greater extent in the future. But the problem is that without weapons, the number of weapons they lack is an extremely staggering number, and in such a situation, it is an extremely difficult situation for us to deal with, and we must provide them with weapons so that we can achieve our desired results. Jia Xu said.

"They also need factories, they need a job, and only then can they be stabilized." Jia Xu added.

"But what I do know is that there is still some risk aversion in the matter of factory investment, after all, it is the core area." Shang Wu said.

Indeed, the solution that the IRA came up with was to build a factory directly there. But how to set up a factory, how to get people to invest, obviously this kind of thing is not a very easy thing to deal with.

"Herein lies the problem." Jia Xu said helplessly.

"In that case, we're going to find a way to solve something like this." Shang Wu said.

"But it will take time, a lot of time, which will delay our advance, and most importantly, we are worried that Dong Zhuo will not be able to withstand it for too long. The situation on the battlefield seemed to be unfavorable for him. Jia Xu said.

Shang Wu was a little worried about this, and if Dong Zhuo suddenly gave up before they sent troops, the result would be in a very unfavorable situation. This is definitely not the kind of outcome that the IRA wants to see, and it will get worse. And it's terrible.
