The Second Regiment of the Insurance Regiment undertook the arrest work this time. As a political commissar, He Zudao must personally command this operation. He Zudao, the camp for the victims of the disaster, has been here many times, and this is the same design as the insurance group. Tic-tac-toe structure, the road is straight and the intervals are exactly the same. In the open space circled by the path, exactly the same grass huts were built. The only thing that distinguishes these huts is the signs nailed to the pillars.

After all, this is a camp of several thousand people, with open-air rooms, bathing rooms, and toilets built on the periphery, which are quite reasonably arranged. The whole camp is in good order. Although the 2nd Regiment dispatched ten companies, nearly two thousand people. Each camp was able to allocate two companies, four hundred people. But the four hundred people entered the camp in multiple ways, and it felt like they were entering a vast labyrinth.

At the preparatory meeting for the dispatch of the second regiment, Chai Qingguo believed that only five companies needed to be dispatched to complete the problem. But He Zudao thinks that ten companies must be moved. This meant that the 2nd Regiment would have to dispatch two and a half battalions, and more than half of the troops would have to be engaged in the operation.

"Political Commissar He, there's no need to be so stirring up the crowd, right?" Chai Qingguo was very puzzled, there was no need to go so hard to catch some thieves.

"The problem is that more than 700 people have to be arrested. When we do it, we also have to prevent them from escaping in all directions, and there are not more than ten companies to dispatch. ”

"More than 700 people are going to be arrested?" Chai Qingguo was also frightened by this number, "Didn't you arrest more than 200 people a few days ago?" ”

"These more than 700 people have something to do with those people, so they have to have some companions, right?" He Zudao said with a smile. His smile wasn't so natural, though.

Before this operation, He Zudao specifically asked Chen Ke about this matter. Chen Ke's arrangement is not simply to solve some bandits, if it is just that, there is no need to use the second regiment at all. Each camp has its own escort team. Another reason why Chen Ke is doing this now is to reap the discipline of the season.

The victims have been hungry for so long, and everyone will definitely hope to save more food for themselves when the harvest time comes. The so-called food in his hand is not panicked. This would have been understandable. However, to put it bluntly, the cooperative relationship between the people and the insurance group is far from being a military and civilian situation, and if the people have food that can feed themselves, the current cooperative relationship with the insurance group will immediately have problems.

Although Chen Ke firmly believes in the position of "people's revolution", the current Chen Ke also has the heart of a politician. In order to achieve his goal, before the final "land division" is completed, Chen Ke does not think that the people should be given the ability to move freely.

However, although Chen Ke had this plan, he did not say it directly at the meeting. This can be regarded as a test for comrades, to see who can make this suggestion. What is more important is what kind of attitude the comrades will have in making this proposal.

He Zudao is trustworthy, and Chen Ke fully revealed his thoughts to He Zudao.

"Secretary Chen, if that's the case, who am I going to hit this time?" He Zudao didn't discuss Chen Ke's rights and wrongs at all, he went straight to the subject of his work.

"Who is the easiest to steal?" Chen Ke asked.

"This ......" He Zudao really didn't think about it, and after thinking for a while, he replied: "Cornered, right?" ”

"Haha, Zudao, I said that you have been in Shanghai for so long, how many of those deflated people are desperate? It's really desperate, and those people can go and sell their lives. The vast majority of petty thieves are lazy. It's lazy and doesn't want to work. I didn't have the courage to be a robber, so I had to go to petty theft. ”

After listening to Chen Ke's explanation, He Zudao thought for a while, and he really had the meaning of suddenly enlightening. "What does Secretary Chen mean?"

Chen Ke gave He Zudao a thick list, "Lu Huitian did a good job, he gradually divided those who were lazy and lazy." When you were arrested, you arrested the worst performers and the lazy ones for me. ”

Holding this list in his hand, he asked puzzledly: "Those people don't seem to have done anything now, right?" ”

"Sometimes it's better to prevent it than to prevent it. We don't care if they're innocent or not, we have to make sure that nothing happens at a critical moment. Chen Ke's voice was understated. But He Zudao was a little unacceptable. "Secretary Chen, this time I want to arrest criminals. If these people didn't commit crimes, wouldn't we need to be so ruthless? ”

"They may or may not do it, but we can't take that risk. And I'll put it in the head, this is just the beginning of the cleanup. These people are just forced labor, and since they are not willing to work diligently, we will help them to correct these lazy problems. After that, we will have to clean up a lot of people, and then we will definitely not be so polite. Chen Ke's voice was faint, but He Zudao heard a strong murderous aura from Chen Ke's voice.

Chai Qingguo has learned a lot of cultural knowledge these days. At least the vernacular document of the insurance group can already be understood, he flipped through the thick list, and looked up at He Zudao. Chai Qingguo keenly noticed He Zudao's abnormality.

"Commissar He, what's wrong? What's wrong with these people? Chai Qingguo asked.

"It's not a big problem, I just think it's not easy to explain to the people after arresting so many people." He Zudao prevaricated Chai Qingguo's words very well, after all, he has worked for so long, and He Zudao is no longer the weak and simple young man. What's more, there is no problem with this, Chai Qingguo didn't see at all that He Zudao was thinking about something completely unrelated to this.

"You are the political commissar, this kind of thing naturally has to be done by you. I don't have to worry about it. Chai Qingguo said with a smile.

He Zudao smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Then I have to talk to Secretary Lu." He was in charge of the affairs of the camp, and he had to give an account to the people, and it was not my turn. ”

"You He political commissar also has a time to shirk work, it's rare, it's rare." Chai Qingguo simply laughed out loud.

He Zudao didn't give any explanation, and after discussing the scale of the troops dispatched, he really went to Lu Huitian to discuss how to explain to the masses.

Lu Huitian is one of the few people in the insurance group who wears glasses, but he is not seen today. Seeing that He Zudao brought a document, Lu Huitian took out his glasses. I saw that the broken temples were tied with a wooden stick, and it was shabby enough to look at.

"Secretary Lu, this ......" He Zudao watched Lu Huitian adjust the position of his glasses with difficulty. I couldn't help but say something.

"Commissar He, it's nothing, at least the lenses are preserved." Lu Huitian smiled, "I heard that Secretary You is engaged in the production of glass. If you can produce lenses, you can naturally produce glasses frames. There will be white flour steamed buns, there will be large pieces of pork, everything will be there. Lu Huitian laughed out loud after speaking.

These are the words that Chen Ke said at the meeting in order to boost everyone's morale, and it became a popular language in the insurance group for a while.

It's a joke, but Lu Huitian is not sloppy at all in the face of work, and he looks through the list of hundreds of people to be arrested. Only then did Lu Huitian return the roster to He Zudao, "Political Commissar He, these are the people." I am always lazy on weekdays, and I heard Secretary Chen say that these people have to be reformed through labor under your supervision. You take these people and train them well. These people are greedy and lazy on weekdays, which affects morale very much. It's good to clean them up. ”

"Secretary Lu, do these people steal chickens and dogs on weekdays?"

Taking off his broken leg glasses, Lu Huitian rubbed the bridge of his nose, "There is no stealing chickens and dogs for the time being, and you also know that the things in the camp are all kept in a unified manner." The food is distributed uniformly, and there is nothing to steal at all. And there are a lot of patrols in the camp, just in case someone does bad things. ”

He Zudao and Lu Huitian are not very close, but they can manage the camp of tens of thousands of people well, even if the system designed by Chen Ke is good, it will not work without some real materials. Although Lu Huitian is not a pioneering talent, he has some ability to keep it.

"How can you explain to the people when you arrest so many people at once?" He Zudao asked.

"Do you think the common people look at these people very well?" Lu Huitian asked rhetorically.

"This ......" He Zudao really doesn't understand the feelings of the people very well.

"Foot Dao, seriously, I still really admire the people. I won't talk about your work, it's hard to death. The people are also working hard. But I really explained it to the people, and they also understood the reason. Everyone is now in the same boat, and the common people don't want to be lazy people on this boat. When the crops grew, the people were relieved. For these people, you are bold to catch, and it will be fine. ”

"What to say about the families of these people? Anyway, I kidnapped other people's families. He Zudao is most worried about this matter.

Lu Huitian shook his head helplessly, "Secretary Chen asked me to prepare a public trial meeting to publicly sentence those who committed crimes. Those who are lazy are actually not unrelated to those who steal the grain depot. It's just a matter of catching and doing some work, and I can probably hold it down on my side. Just don't kill or maim them. ”

"This ......" He Zudao still didn't think it was appropriate. Although I have never heard of the term unjust, false and wrongful cases, He Zudao has always felt that something is not right with this kind of violence.

"It's all arranged organizationally, let's go on it. If the arrogance of these criminals is not suppressed, the people's will will not be stable. We can't make unconditional concessions, making people feel that the insurance group is strict, it's nothing. If it makes people feel that the insurance group can be bullied, then it will not work. You see, these days when those involved in the theft are arrested, the common people don't say anything no. Lu Huitian comforted.

Since Lu Huitian also said so, He Zudao could only agree with this idea. Despite this, when He Zudao personally led the team to arrest him, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Although he has been to the camp of ordinary victims many times, He Zudao is not a stranger here, but when he thinks that the people can't accept the statement of the insurance group, they will make trouble together....... This huge camp suddenly gave He Zudao a strange feeling. More than 400 people are nothing in this camp of several thousand, just like scattering a handful of rice in a water tank. Because most of the people had gone to work, the camp was empty, which made He Zudao suddenly have a feeling of unease.

There were more than 120 men in Camp 1 who were about to be arrested, and they had no idea that a catastrophe was coming. Since Lu Huitian started to divide the team, he provided food according to the amount of labor, and the food of the team with more labor would increase. Since these people are unwilling to work hard, the improvement of food is very limited. The initial food provided by the insurance group was to ensure that no one starved to death, and there was no need to think about being full. There was not enough food for several months, and these guys were not the kind of people who worked well, so naturally they did not have the kind of anger that is characteristic of laborers. They all look weak.

Lu Huitian asked them to stand in line on the playground in the center of the camp, and when they found hundreds of soldiers gathered in all directions, these people were panicked. Although the fighters of the insurance regiment had heavy work, they had a decent diet and were able to be half full. And discipline and organization far surpass these lazy people. In addition, the military training of the insurance regiment was in place, and He Zudao announced in public that these people needed to be taken away to assist in the investigation because they participated in the theft of the grain depot.

The gang didn't know what exactly "assisted in the investigation" meant. But the soldiers of the second regiment rushed up to tie up the people, so that they understood what was happening. These people were completely panicked. But no matter how much they pleaded, the soldiers of the second regiment did not let go in the slightest.

He Zudao personally did the mobilization work before departure. Watching the fierce performances of the fighters, he couldn't help but think of the scene when they were mobilized.

"Comrades, today we are going to arrest people. Catch the bad guys. What did they do? They went to the grain depot of the insurance regiment to steal things. For whom is the grain in the granary to eat? ”

"Food for the common people!" The fighters replied one after another. He Zudao has been talking with everyone at the meeting of soldiers of various units these days, and he has been talking to everyone and exchanging his heart. This concept is instilled over and over again.

"Whose team is our insurance team?" He Zudao continued to ask in a loud voice.

"We are the team of the common people!" This is the standard answer.

"Since we are the people's team, can we let them go if someone steals the food that the people are living in?" He Zudao continued to ask.

"Can't!"

"Yes, we can't let them go! Not only did they steal, but they also spoiled a lot of food. In this disaster year, how many lives can be survived by the food they spoiled? They're not stealing, they're harming, they're harming people! He Zudao finished shouting in one go, and then glanced at the circle of soldiers. I saw that the soldiers were emotional one by one, and the pre-war mobilization had an effect.

"Now, we're going to go and get them out. By arresting these people, we are saving the people. Do you think it's okay? ”

"Capable of doing well!" The warriors shouted in unison.

"Very good, let's go now!" He Zudao gave the order.

These fighters, who had been mobilized before the war, showed no mercy in the face of the "criminals", holding one by one, regardless of whether the captured people were begging, crying, and begging for mercy. Hold it down and tie it up. It doesn't matter if it's someone you know or not.

"The military heart is available." He Zudao can only comment like this.

When Zhang Xiuhua arrived at the camp, he happened to meet He Zudao and the troops pressing those people out of the camp. Seeing a woman wearing the uniform of the insurance regiment coming to the gate of the camp, the soldiers looked over with curious eyes. Zhang Xiuhua was seen by so many people, and her face turned red. She took a few steps back, trying to make her way to another door. Just as he was about to turn around, he heard a scream, "Sister! Sister! Help me! Help me! ”

turned his head and saw that it was Zhang Xiuhua's younger brother, Zhang's fourth brother. When the child saw his sister, he immediately began to cry for help with snot and tears. Zhang Xiuhua hurriedly walked up and wanted to hold his younger brother. but was blocked by the fighters of the second regiment.

"This ......, this comrade, what are you going to do?" It was a squad leader who spoke. There was alarm in his curious eyes.

"That's my brother, why are you arresting him?"

"He steals with people. We've got to bring them back. ”

Without waiting for Zhang Xiuhua to speak, Fourth Brother Zhang had already shouted, "Sister, I didn't go, I didn't go." The day they called me, I was half eaten and starved to death. I didn't want to move, so I didn't go. I really didn't steal. ”

This kind of justification in a hurry became a "confession", and Zhang Xiuhua scolded his younger brother in his heart for being useless.

As soon as Fourth Brother Zhang made such a fuss, the team immediately began to be a little confused. A moment later, He Zudao and Lu Huitian rushed over to take a look.

Seeing a female warrior appear next to the team, and among the people who were arrested seemed to be her relatives, one of the two leaked the news, Lu Huitian hurriedly stood up, his short-sighted eyes narrowed and carefully identified it before saying: "Isn't this Comrade Zhang, do you have something?" ”

"Secretary Lu, this is a document for you." Zhang Xiuhua has not forgotten her work.

"Oh, let's go in and talk about it." Lu Huitian didn't want everyone to block the door.

"Secretary Lu, can you let my brother go first?" Zhang Xiuhua hurriedly said.

"This won't work." Lu Huitian replied. He thought that Zhang Xiuhua would continue to plead, but he didn't expect Zhang Xiuhua to continue to entangle except for his disappointed expression. After handing over the documents, Zhang Xiuhua got up and said goodbye with dark anxiety. This made Lu Huitian very surprised

Zhang Xiuhua did not return to the women's camp, nor did she chase after the soldiers who took her brother away. These days, she has learned one thing, the rules of the insurance group are very large. An ordinary warrior can't stop anything at all. Only high-ranking cadres can release the insurance group. Even the mid-level cadres are afraid that they can't do anything. Zhang Xiuhua originally wanted to visit You Wei, but now she is walking quickly on the way to the county seat. The only person she could ask for was Youyu.

I don't know what my brother is involved in, but from my brother's words, Zhang Xiuhua knows that things are not good. She hurried along. While thinking about what was going on. However, what made Zhang Xiuhua feel incredible was that Zhang Xiuhua did not have a trace of resentment towards the insurance group that captured his younger brother.

When he arrived at the experimental site, Zhang Xiuhua saw You Xuan's familiar figure from a distance. Short hair, free and easy manners. In the middle of a group of men with braids, it is really very eye-catching. But I don't know why, Zhang Xiuhua didn't dare to go over and ask You Yu for help. She could only stand there from a distance, watching the figure of You Ya work.
