Cutting off people's wealth is worse than killing their parents, Chen Ke has heard this sentence. He thinks that this is not true or not, and that for the Chinese landlord class and their descendants, some things seem very intriguing on the surface.

In the history of New China, the revolutionary economic policy was based on "land reform". The land will be distributed after full confiscation. When the old system of land ownership is completely destroyed, the old social system also collapses.

Chen Ke grew up in the late twentieth century, and he began to take a keen interest in politics at the turn of the century, at the turn of the century when China was rapidly industrializing. Over the years, Chen Ke has met many people who have a surprisingly consistent attitude towards land reform, including Chen Ke, who believes that it is necessary and just. The only difference of opinion is whether the supporting policies of the land reform are reasonable, whether the efficiency of the development of the productive forces is sufficient, and whether the ideological transformation after the land reform is thorough. As for the demise of the old landlord class, there was not the slightest sympathy from the crowd.

This consensus is not unusual, but what is unusual is that many people, including Chen Ke, were born as landlords. "If there are still landlords, how rich will we be on these lands alone?" People joke about it every once in a while. But when it comes to the national level, the children and grandchildren of these landlords fully support the land reform. Because everyone is an urban class created in the era of industrialization, everyone's dimensional model is completely industrialized.

From the point of view of the industrialized countries, the landlords relied on the rent of the mode of production too low. The landlords, as the backbone of society at that time, owned most of the means of production and grain. However, they did not use these means of production and grain for industrial construction. Because each landlord has too few resources to build an industrial system. Not to mention that they don't have any industrial organization and mindset at all. The limitations of history doomed these landlords to build China's industrial system on their own.

In the twentieth century, if China wanted to resist foreign invaders and defend its country and people, it had to industrialize. Since the old land system and the landlord class derived from it are destined to fail to fulfill this historical mission. In the eyes of Chen Ke and other industrialized urban classes, the old land system is a real evil. From the point of view of the country's liberation and development, the landlords intentionally or unconsciously committed heinous crimes. The social system on which the landlords relied for their livelihood was a decadent system that must be completely eliminated.

The level of productivity in the industrial countries is much higher than that in the agrarian countries, and although the "land reform" eliminated the landlords, the industrial system built up after the land reform provided more opportunities, a higher standard of living, and a better way of life.

From the end of the Qing Dynasty in 1911 to the new China in 1949, the Chinese population did not grow in more than 30 years, and the average life expectancy in China actually fell to more than 30 years. One out of every three babies born does not live to be three years old. In 60 years, the population of the republic has grown from more than 400 million to more than 1.3 billion, and in 2011 the population was three times that of 1949. This was achieved on the basis of the implementation of large-scale family planning. Life expectancy has more than doubled, and the quality of life is at a level that was unimaginable in 1949.

It can be said that the land reform policy put an end to the existing system in China and laid the cornerstone of the industrialization process of New China. So no matter how harsh the land reform is, because of improper operation, there is a little bit of it that is not so mild now. However, Chen Ke still believes that land reform itself is absolutely correct, absolutely just, and absolutely necessary.

When Grandpa Mao was formulating the land reform plan, he clearly put forward the policy of "the landlord takes off his hat in five years". As the leader of the faction in the party, from the perspective of industrial capital, Liu Xiuhua believed that it was necessary to exterminate the landlords, and the bureaucracy was greatly distorted when implementing the land reform policy, which was the historical limitation of the faction represented by Liu Xiuxing. You can't blame the land reform and Grandpa Mao.

But Chen Ke couldn't explain these things clearly to his comrades, and he couldn't explain them clearly to the people, let alone the landlords and their families. For Chen Ke, everything in front of him is the "past", and unless Chen Ke can give China the strength and status of the first decade of the 21st century in his lifetime, Chen Ke will not have any "future".

Therefore, in the summer of 1906, whether it was the family of the landlord Zhang Youliang who was trembling in front of Chen Ke, or the comrades of the insurance group who looked solemn, waiting for Chen Ke to make a final decision and would implement it. Chen Ke knew deep down that his orders would determine the future of both friend and foe. He must be responsible, not only to his comrades, but even to the "enemies" of the present.

If Chen Ke succeeds in realizing his ideal revolution, then Chen Ke will determine the future of China and the future of the world today. Chen Ke has a responsibility to the comrades who follow him, and as a leader, Chen Ke will lead them through many difficulties and obstacles to the other side of industrialized China. As for the enemy, for those who were abandoned and sacrificed on the road that Chen Ke was striving for, if Chen Ke could not prove that his path was successful, his own path could achieve the historical mission of China's rejuvenation. Then these people who have been abandoned and sacrificed, their sacrifice becomes meaningless. If Chen Ke's decision is correct, he will inevitably take responsibility for these people.

Chen Kezu was a small and medium-sized landowner more than 100 years ago, but as early as the early 20th century, his family sold a lot of land and moved to the city. The children were educated in a church school run by foreigners, and after finishing high school, they completed a major in mechanical engineering at a university run by the Beiyang government, focusing on internal combustion engines. After the Japanese invaded China, all the children of the Chen Ke family defected to the party. Because the patriarch of the family has commented, "xxx looks like a success at a glance." Since then, these elders who have received sufficient education have unswervingly fought with the party, working diligently in the army and technical departments, some of whom died before the victory of the revolution, and some of whom have followed the party all the way to liberate the whole of China.

If it was only the choice of the Chen Ke family that determined Chen Ke's views, but the descendants of the landlords that Chen Ke knew who did not follow the party, their elders did not follow the party, but these people also firmly believed in the correctness and necessity of land reform. With such a result, it can only be said that everyone has a scale in their hearts. The results of history have clearly proved the correctness of land reform and revolution, and the success of China's industrialization path opened up by these policies. So they accepted the correctness of the result and the righteousness of the action that had destroyed their family's fortune.

But the responsibility is so heavy. At present, the base areas are very weak, and they have completely relied on natural disasters to intensify social contradictions and greatly weaken the order of the old society itself. In order to survive, the people followed the insurance group, and in order to survive, everyone came to fight. In order to survive, the soldiers from good families also learned to kick in the door, learn to kill, and use violent means to suppress and quell the riots of the captives when persuasion fails.

In order to survive, they rallied under the banner of this new party, the new army, that Chen Ke had begun to form. And this party and army, after their formation, have begun to show the violence and ruthlessness characteristic of the state apparatus. Chen Kemai has passed this psychological burden, because history has proved to him that "revolution is not a dinner party, not a fuss, not a painting and embroidery, it cannot be so elegant, so calm, so polite, so gentle and frugal." Revolution is*, the violent action of a class to overthrow a class. ”

If you don't have a broom, the dust won't run away on its own. The revolution cannot go on without the violence of the revolution. If you don't destroy the enemy, you will be destroyed by the enemy. Zhang Youliang and their family have been caught now, but it is impossible for the tiger to return to the mountain, the Zhang family may not be a great force, but if they are allowed to act freely, they will fight back.

Then maybe we should cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

Chen Kegang thought of this, but heard Xu Dian's eager words. "Battalion Commander Chen, we can't kill them all." Perhaps feeling that his voice was too loud, Xu Dian hurriedly lowered his voice, "It's not that we can't kill them now, but now we kill them all, what do other people think." Others will think that if they offend us, we will kill them all. That's just to make others think that we don't have enough room for people. That's right, if we let the Zhang family go, they will definitely make trouble. But as long as we take care of the people who live in their house, they will not dare to move. Even if they go to sue us, we have a way to keep them down. Absolutely. We're not without us. ”

Xu Dian said as he looked at Chen Ke. Just now, the look on Chen Ke's face was indescribably calm, Xu Dian had never seen such a look, this was the look and posture that had made Wu Xingchen shudder. This is a look and posture that leaves all one's thoughts behind and only expounds a truth. And this attitude is really shocking, Chen Ke does not look like a living human at this time. It's as if you're possessed by something.,Exudes a resolute attitude.。

The other comrades all felt a heavy atmosphere, and Xu Dian had already guessed that Chen Ke had made up his mind to get rid of the Zhang family. In the morning, Xu Dian and Hua Xiongmao arrived at Zhang's house together. They rushed out of the bloody road from the Zhang family, and they were spared. But Xu Dian doesn't think some things need to be done so thoroughly.

"It's too much, Camp Commander Chen. Although it is said that the troubled times use heavy codes, there must be a reason to kill them. In order to save the people and obtain land, we made a move against the Zhang family. When the Zhang family resisted, we killed it. But most of the landlords in the county did not resist us at all. Let's get rid of the Zhang family, what do those people think? Are we going to kill all those people? Battalion commander, it's not that we can't kill them, but we can't kill them all for no reason. ”

Listening to Xu Dian's words, Chen Ke breathed a sigh of relief. These words were very reasonable, and although there were no more practical suggestions, Chen Ke accepted the explanation.

"Wen Qing, uh, Camp Chief Chen. I suggest that we move the headquarters of the insurance group from the county seat to Yuezhangji. It's also close to the county seat, so you'll soon find out what's going on. In addition, the situation here is also good, there are mountains and rivers, it is a good place. Let's take care of the Zhang family first. Let's decide on the final plan later. Hua Xiongmao also said.

Chen Ke nodded, "Then let's do it first." Let's first copy out the Zhang family's food and money. We will keep half of the insurance group, and the other half will be distributed to the local people. Those who come from other places shall also be given a portion according to the distance of their homes. These people have done a lot of work, and they can't go home empty-handed. ”

Seeing that Chen Ke has returned to the orderly and rational situation in the past, the distribution of things is also reasonable and humane. All the cadres breathed a sigh of relief.

But Chen Ke suddenly said aloud: "I have been telling everyone that we want to establish a new order. What the new order is, I can make it clear to you. From today onwards, in all the territories under the jurisdiction of our BJP, there will be only the people and the government led by our BJP. The People's Party directly leads the people and leads them to live a good life together. May the tiller have his land, and may the laborer have his inheritance. But those who want to make a fortune by owning the land, owning the factory, and then making a fortune for themselves will never have the opportunity to do so again. Speaking of this, Chen Ke raised his left arm straight, and pointed his left index finger straight at the sky above, "Comrades, this day has changed!" ”

Among the comrades gathered around Chen Ke, only a few people could vaguely understand the economic and political ideas expounded by Chen Ke in these words, but they all knew that Chen Ke had set the tone for the People's Party and the Insurance Group. At this time, a gust of wind blew from the surface of the lake, and now it is autumn, and the temperature after the flood is not high, everyone's clothes are very thin, and everyone is shocked by this gust of wind. I don't know if it's because I feel it, I don't know if it's a little cold, or if it's a response to "The sky has changed!" This sentence feels high-spirited.

"On the eighteenth day of the beginning of autumn, the grass is knotted. Tomorrow we will start organizing a seed rush. If we don't be able to grow food this year, our insurance group and the tens of thousands of people under our umbrella will not survive this winter. Are you ready, comrades? Chen Ke asked loudly.

"Yes!" Hua Xiongmao took the lead in standing upright and saluted Chen Ke with a military salute. One by one, the officers all saluted Chen Keli.

Chen Ke waved his hand, "Let's go copy Zhang's house." ”
