Chapter 651: The Settlement Point of the Displaced People
Qin Ergou and several classmates from the military academy stood on an inland river sailboat, enjoying the scenery on both sides of the Yellow River. After nearly two years of study, Qin Ergou has changed very much, he has been determined to make contributions on the battlefield since he was a child, and the life of the Far East Army Command Academy made him feel extremely shocked.
Nowadays, the Far Eastern Military Academies are no longer a crash course for the purpose of strengthening the grassroots cadres of the troops, as in the past, but a three-year study of military theory, plus a complete and systematic training and training for company practice in one year.
Every year, several military academies and academies in the Far East send some cadets to participate in military operations in the Far East, hoping that the cadets will learn something that cannot be learned in the military academies.
This year, Qin Ergou was sent to Daming by the Army Command School to participate in the operation of accepting immigrants. From Vladivostok, they boarded a large sail carrier that had recently completed sea trials, and went all the way to the mouth of the Yellow River along the coast of Daming.
At Yuntiguan, I transferred to an inland river sailing boat and sailed all the way to Henan. At this time, the flood of the Yellow River had just ended, and there were still some scattered ice cubes floating on the river, and dozens of their military cadets got on more than a dozen river engine sailboats.
The entire Yellow River was covered with boats, and Qin Ergou and their fleet had hundreds of boats. Most of them are ships hired by the Central Plains Intelligence Station. Because the Far East price is relatively high, at this time of year, the heroes who run boats on the Yellow River will come to Henan to help the Far East transport displaced people to Shanxi.
Qin Ergou and they are not here to play, but with a squad of soldiers on this ship, they are responsible for the vigilance and security of the ship, and when transporting the immigrants to sea, they also have to maintain the order of the immigrants on the ship.
He stood at the bow of the boat and looked at the banks of the Yellow River. I couldn't help but think of myself and Liu Hancheng, father and son, who also went to Liaodong on such a boat. There were no such good ships that year, they were all temporarily hired ships, and each boat was stuffed with people, and in the days before going to sea in the Yellow River, Qin Ergou still had palpitations when he remembered it. I really don't know how I got through it.
"Ergou, you're also from Shanxi, right?"
A classmate from the military academy turned his head and asked, Qin Ergou nodded, and said with a wry smile: "More than two years ago, I went to Liaodong by boat from Henan. ”
When the few soldiers next to them heard this, they couldn't help but glance at Qin Ergou a few times, they didn't expect that there were also Shanxi immigrants among the military cadets. They knew that the first time they went to sea from the Yellow River waterway was three years ago, when a Shanxi immigrant had only spent three years in the Far East. turned out to be a military cadet, which is a bit ridiculous.
The squad leader who led the team on the ship, I asked incredulously: "Sir, are you really a Shanxi immigrant who sailed from Henan three years ago?" ”
Before Qin Ergou could speak, his classmates from the military academy answered for him first: "Of course, when Xiao Qin entered the military academy, he was still a private." At present, he is also among the best in the cultural course of the Army Command Military Academy, and he is still the top training student of our academy. ”
The fighters on the ship listened. Their faces changed, and they all had a solemn and respectful expression. looked at Qin Ergou with adoration on his face. They are all veterans of more than one year who have been in the service for more than two years, and the non-commissioned officer squad leader has been in the military for three years.
They were all temporarily transferred from overseas brigades, and they were all veterans. Since joining the Far Eastern Army, of course, they know how difficult it is to become a top trainer in the Far East, and the fact that the private was sent to the military academy was something they had never heard of.
The fleet sailed for several days. Finally came to the territory of Henan. At this time, a large number of Shanxi refugees had gathered in the farms purchased by the Far East on both sides of the Yellow River, waiting for the arrival of ships from the Far East.
After several years of work, the Central Plains Intelligence Station has accumulated a wealth of experience. They selected a group of activists from the Shanxi immigrants who had participated in winter training in eastern Liaoning. Came to Henan to help them manage the displaced people.
Every year, most of the migrants are concentrated from the beginning of April to the end of October, so they have a whole winter to collect displaced people in Henan, Huguang and Shanxi. Each of the Shanxi refugees who came in the mountains was only issued a shabby cotton coat.
In order to save costs, when the displaced people arrived in Liaodong, they would take off the cotton coat before entering the purification camp, and then after a simple treatment, send it back to the collection point of the displaced people in Henan, and put it on the body of another immigrant, so that the original brand new cotton coat has now become tattered.
However, the main task of Henan's homeless gathering point is to gather homeless people and ensure that these homeless people can have a cotton coat to protect them from the cold, so that they don't freeze to death this winter. And there are only two meals of rice porridge as thin as water every day, hanging on to their lives.
In fact, the Far East originally fed them every day, but after the displaced people were fed, various situations continued to occur. Some homeless people actually gathered together, secretly ran out to loot everywhere, and also broke several nearby Zhuangzi. There were even incidents of robbing the displaced people to collect some grain depots, which made the Central Plains Intelligence Station extremely passive.
This is the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, and it is impossible for the Far East to deploy too many troops here to maintain the order of the homeless people's collection point, so now the homeless people's collection point basically does not let the homeless people eat enough, and only gives them two meals of gruel every day. Even so, the various points of concentration of displaced people are still extremely chaotic.
Fortunately, the local government and the nearby gentry were also afraid of accidents, so they would send some military households and young men to maintain order every year. They all hoped that the Far East would transport away the displaced people who had fled here every year, so that no trouble would arise under their rule.
As soon as a dozen river engine sailing boats docked, they saw that the nearby shore was full of all kinds of boats, and a large number of displaced people were boarding the boats. Most of the homeless people did not want to board the boat, but were reluctantly pushed onto the boat under the whip and stick whipping.
The whole shore was in chaos, and the sound of homeless people crying everywhere was extremely disturbing to watch. Several of Qin Ergou's military academy classmates all showed unbearable looks.
Finally, a group of homeless people were driven here, and were pushed to Qin Ergou's boat by several local young men and women. Qin Ergou listened to the familiar country sound, tears flowed down, and he also recalled the days when he fled the famine.
One of his military school classmates tried to help a homeless person, but he didn't expect the homeless to kneel down with a "poof". The "bang" shook his head and howled loudly, and the other homeless people under the boat also knelt down, and the scene became extremely chaotic for a while.
Suddenly, the non-commissioned officer squad leader who led the team on the boat rushed over, kicked the homeless man down with one kick, picked up the leather whip and beat the homeless on the boat, and scolded loudly: "Hurry up and get on the boat, and then the ink will throw you into the river......"
