Chapter 749: Salinchkin's concessions

"Let's go! Berekov, since tomorrow the two of us are not at the division headquarters, we have to say hello to Salinchikin. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoOriginally, we would have sent someone to inform us, but since Yerentina has already gone to report, I think that person will be happy to talk to you about your views on the food issue. ”

Listening to what Yevlov meant, Yang Mingzhi also felt that he needed to go.

It's late in the evening, and the cafeteria hasn't opened yet, so if you can, it's best to try to have an explanation for these things today.

On the other hand, Yelentina urgently wrote a report and came to the municipal party committee in time with her notebook. Because the two are considered superior-subordinate relationships, she can't be too restrained in front of this middle-aged man.

Regarding the matter of the warehouse, she made a report on the matter of fifteen and ten, and naturally explained the matter of potatoes.

"That man wants bread rationed for all citizens? This is not in accordance with the regulations! All flour was for the military, and flour could only be supplied to soldiers and those performing combat duty in the arsenal! Salinchkin's resolute look really worried Yerenkina.

But he squinted his eyes and thought for a while, and he had to listen to Lyudbalev's opinion on this matter.

Now that time has passed, and with this airborne official of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Lyudbalev always feels that he is his subordinate, and that he is the mayor of Gomel! This is the municipality of Gomel in Belarus, and Berekov has great kindness to the Belarusian people. Therefore, in the face of Salinchkin's news, he naturally stood here with Yang Mingzhi.

Lyudbalev has a very good reason. "There is one situation that we must pay attention to now, and that is dogmatism," he explained. If the leader is not very clear about our situation here, he cannot simply apply the new rules that the leader has made. Now that the investigation has revealed that the supply of potatoes to the civilian population is running out, we must use the stocks of cereals. To say that all flour is supplied to the army, and therefore treats civilians differently, at least for the time being, is very unscientific.

Because, do we still have civilians here in the strict sense of the word? Now Novgomel is more akin to a state of all the people, from thirteen to sixty years old, both men and women, as long as they can take up arms, they are considered militia. We give the militia bread as a matter of course! However, from a practical point of view, the best quality food is naturally to supply the troops who are best at fighting wars. ”

Salinchkin was a little upset, these people were on fire and questioning the leader's decision! From another point of view, this Lyudbalev has been an official in Gomel for a long time, and at the most difficult moment of the fighting, instead of fleeing, he organized a rebel army to save the country. This is a man of great weight, especially when he mentions "dogmatism". Asking himself, Salinchkin suddenly realized that he seemed to be making a mistake, because this is the Fallen Zone!

The peculiar situation here dictates that, although in fact liberated by the legitimate government of the Soviet Union, it is not necessary to fully implement Soviet policy. Because the German army is fully capable of organizing a large army to sweep here, how the military and civilians survive is the most critical.

Lyudbalev once again emphasized: "I am in favor of Berekov. In any case, it is necessary to replace the potatoes in the ration with bread. By the time we harvest new potatoes in May, all food problems will be solved. We'll be in the process of changing the ration at that point. ”

The mayor has already made his statement, as have the three senior officers and commissars of the 284th Guards Division. What else is there to refute now? Salinchkin knew that because this violated the rules, it could be vetoed, and at the moment reason was controlling him, and a categorical veto was tantamount to artificially creating contradictions, which was suicide!

After all, he still recognized Yang Mingzhi's decision, and closed the notebook and returned it to Yelenkina.

"I understand your report! We, the Soviets, cannot say anything, and we must be even more cautious when it comes to the entire Novgomel grain problem. Since all the senior personnel except me supported Berekov's proposal, I naturally supported it. It's just that the details of this are debatable, for example, when we serve bread to the common people, the ration of the prime of life and the children must be different. ”

Yerentina fell to the ground with a stone in her heart, and she said with a smile: "So this matter has to ask Comrade Berekov to come in person!" On top of that, mushrooms are theoretically starting to grow tomorrow, and we can't afford to miss any opportunity to get food now. I have ordered the soldiers and civilians still in the forest to keep an eye on all the roots of the big trees and collect all the mushrooms they can find. ”

Salinchkin's frowning brow suddenly loosened, and he nodded: "I really forgot, mushrooms can also fill your stomach!" You're doing well, now go and rest. Since you ordered the mushroom picking, you should also set an example. ”

"What? Are you asking me to carry a basket into the forest tomorrow too? "Yerentina is very strange.

"Nope! Of course not! You yourself left me in your office, but those Komsomol members under you, if they are comrades who are not busy with work, I hope they will not waste their time, after all, the mushrooms will not be eaten by the elders. ”

Yelenkina smiled and saluted, "I promise to complete the task!" ”

With that, the woman smiled and turned to leave the municipal party committee office.

The people of the Ministry of Internal Affairs were never monolithic, but their job was to defend the rule of the Soviet Union with a clear banner. The power of the USSR came from the Bolsheviks, that is, all the working people. Yerentina was satisfied, ordinary civilians would be able to eat the same bread as soldiers, which was no less than a delicacy during the war years, and this simply showed tens of thousands of people that now Novgomel was living in good enough conditions to give everyone the best food! As a result, morale will rise dramatically, which is just as important for the military.

In a good mood, she jumped to the division headquarters, and she didn't care about the mud splashes on her body when she was happy. Yerenkina looked like a girl of seventeen or eighteen, even though she was twenty-six.

Her scene happened to be seen by Yang Mingzhi and Yevlov, who were about to rush to the division headquarters.

"Hey, hey! It seems that your woman reported well, and she must have been praised by her boss. Yang Mingzhi teased.

"yes, I've only seen her so happy in bed!" After fantasizing about Yerentina for a while, Yevlov called the "pleasant she-rabbit" to his side and decisively asked: "How is it?" Your debriefing? ”

"Of course there is no problem." Yerentina, who was smiling, immediately turned her head and said to Yang Mingzhi: "By the way, Berekov." With regard to the substitution of bread for potatoes in civilian rations, the Commissioner has agreed. In fact, after weighing the pros and cons, the municipal party committee did not question it at all. Now the only problem is the details. Can you two be seen planning to go to the municipal party committee? ”

Yang Mingzhi also fell with a stone in his heart, and his original nervous state of mind disappeared.

He replied, "Yes, since there are mushrooms growing tomorrow, I will certainly not be idle." Our food is still scarce, and I feel compelled to collect it myself. ”

"Excellent! The commissioner is also in favor of mushroom picking! And I can see that the middle-aged man who can reflect the light on the top of his head is also very experienced in picking mushrooms! So you'd better hurry over, he does have something to say. ”

Looking for Salinchkin is to chat with him, but that person can't help but speak with an official tone. Both Salinchkin and Lyudbalev have such problems, so chatting is always like a meeting. Now, no longer than before, Novgomel is no longer the Novgomel of the 284th Guards Division, as the name suggests, "Novo-Gomel", which is the same as the Gomel Oblast of the Byelorussian Soviet Republic. Although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs, and all kinds of affairs have to be held in the future.

Sure enough, it's still better than before! At least although he is only the deputy division commander and chief of staff, Yerentina and Yevlov have to listen to themselves!

Is there any power in one's own hands that makes a man more happy?!
