(Ask for a commuter pass)
After formulating the Hulunbuir development plan, Ma Liuzhou immediately sent his son Ma Zhongyi to Guannei and various places in Northeast China to publicize the Hulunbuir immigration eleven banners immigration policy to benefit the people, and the government is responsible for resettlement, and also pays the settlement fee.
In the plan, it seems that even if immigrants are recruited, tens of thousands of people will come to Hulunbuir, here is East Mongolia, is the border, the back is Lao Maozi Russia, the west is the Outer Mongolian Tatars, and the south is the Horqin people, it can be said that this is a place where soldiers must fight, and it is a bitter cold place in the far north. Two hundred years ago, it was not as good as Ningguta (now Mudanjiang City), except for those who couldn't get by, there were really few people who could come. However, Ma Liuzhou seems to have underestimated the people's thirst for land in this era, the land annexation in the Guannai is strict, the warlords are divided, the new taxes and the old taxes are superimposed, the taxes of the Qing Dynasty in the previous dynasty must be retained and continue to pay taxes, and the taxes issued by the government of the Republic of China must be paid, and the taxes promulgated by the local overseers and guards must also be paid. For example, within the borders of Shandong Province, after the Japanese invaded and killed people everywhere, coupled with banditry and looting, the government did not act, whether it was the government of the Kuomintang or the government of Beiyang, they were all fighting for power and profit, which did not care about the life and death of the people.
Therefore, just one day after the announcement of the new Hulunbuir immigration was published in the major newspapers, some people took the train and began to emigrate to Hulunbuir, if nothing else, for the three years of exemption of grain tax and settlement allowance.
The settling-in allowance was also won by Ma Liuzhou, three yuan for men in the prime of life, five yuan for children and the elderly, and two yuan for women. Wang Maoru said that if I have more, I will have to go bankrupt, and then Ma Liuzhou asked on the train how many immigrants need to be resettled in the 11th Banner of Hulunbuir, and Wang Maoru said that the more immigrants, the better, and it is best to immigrate a few million.
Ma Liuzhou covered his head and smiled bitterly and said, "Dashuai, do you know how many people are in the entire Heilongjiang Province?" Wang Maorulian said that he didn't know, Ma Liuzhou smiled bitterly that the entire Heilongjiang Province only had a population of 420,000, which was not the statistics of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Qing Dynasty in 1912, this was the census of the population under the auspices of the Heilongjiang Provincial Civil Affairs Envoy at the beginning of this year (19 years), even if there was something missing in the mountains, it would not be more than 2 to 50,000 people.
Wang Maoru calculated, his territory only has a total population of 180,000. Just such a small person, if this is not as large as the population of a county in Shandong, his own protector should be too poor, so he said: "Three million, this is my request, I don't ask you to immigrate three million in the first year, ten years, how about three million people in Hulunbuir in ten years?" If three million Han Chinese had immigrated to Hulunbuir, northern Xinjiang would have been stable from now on. With a wave of my hand, I recruited 300,000 troops, how? ”
"Since ancient times, the ratio of people to soldiers is 80 to 1, and in wartime it is only 50 to 1. As soon as Wang Maoru heard that this was the case, he thought carefully and said that it was better to immigrate 5 million and recruit 100,000 soldiers, which is always okay. Ma Liuzhou persuaded that if he really immigrated five million to Hulunbuir, then the food produced here would not be enough to eat. Wang Maoru said that food can be grown here with a short growth cycle and high yield. As for the seeds, the government is responsible for buying them and distributing them to everyone free of charge. He said he had prepared a million oceans to resettle the migrants. Ma Liuzhou was taken aback, a million oceans, and the protectors made the adults so rich? There are one million to form four infantry brigades, it seems that the marshal really wants to immigrate to stabilize the border defense, and he admires it very much, and said: "So many oceans are naturally enough, and Wang Dashuai's abundant wealth and willingness to pay for civil affairs really make me admire it very much." ”
Wang Maoru shook his head, one million oceans, if all the immigrants are resettled, it will only be able to resettle hundreds of thousands of people, but you have to spend carefully, and said: "Millions of oceans can't be spent too quickly, you always bother to calculate the flowers, I don't have civil affairs talents under me, Mr. Ma is more fine." By the way, doesn't it cost much to buy land here, don't skip words.
Ma Liuzhou laughed and said: "If you want to say that buying land in Guanli really requires a lot of money, but in Hulunbuir and Xibutha, there are thousands of miles of uninhabited here, and there are too many borderless lands. After taking a sip of tea, Ma Liuzhou said: "After Emperor Nurhachi entered the customs back then, the meritorious sons who stayed outside the customs ran to stake land, and some families had hundreds of thousands of acres of land. Except for the land occupied by the Russians by building railways, the rest are the pastures of the Mongol princes and the lands of the Manchu bannermen, and some borderless lands. ”
"Okay, good," Wang Maoru was very happy, and said: "Now that I am the envoy of Hulunbuir, won't all the borderless lands be mine?" ”
"That's right, the big handsome wants to be a ...... The biggest landlord? Ma Liuzhou asked with a wry smile.
"Yes, I am the biggest landlord." Wang Maoru slapped his thigh and said, "All refugees are my tenant farmers, what do you think, Mr. Ma?" In my land, I don't need a penny for the first three years, and then I don't want to pay a penny of rent, haha, good idea, if you don't say it, I really didn't expect that since the land is mine, why bother with the restrictions of other gentry, and others can't impeach me. Okay, okay, that's it. ”
Ma Liuzhou objected: "It is estimated that you can find a lot of tenant farmers like you, Hulunbuir and West Brent are located in a cold place, although the land is fertile, but the winter is long, before and after half a year, the land is poor. Even if your land rent is so low, I'm afraid you won't be able to collect much money. ”
Wang Maoru shook his head and said: "No, Ben Shuai doesn't expect to make money with it at all, what I count on is someone to follow me, and the people who follow me will have land and land, food, drink and clothing." People's hearts are the key, what do Chinese people need? Chinese only need a bite of food, an acre of land to plant, a tiled house, and a stable environment. These, others can't give them, I can give them to Lungong, you don't think I'll only be the lord of the eleven flags of Hulunbuir, right? ”
Ma Liuzhou said: "Handsome...... You...... It's a big appetite. ”
Wang Maoru said with a smile: "Duke Lun, Mencius: Heaven will descend on people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically. People are permanent, and then they can change. Trapped in the heart and balanced before the thought, the sign in the color and the sound and then the metaphor. If you enter, you will not be able to go home, and if you go out, you will be invincible to foreign patients, and the country will die. Then he was born in sorrow and died in peace. The two looked at each other and laughed.
After arriving in Hulun City, the civil affairs yamen of the Hulunbuir military government headed by Ma Liuzhou officially began to be formed, although there are not many talents, and there is not even an office location, but a group of people brought by Ma Liuzhou also relieved a lot of pressure on Wang Maoru, and under the echo of Ma Liuzhou, many young people have come here as officials.
Naturally, Hulunbuir is most attracted to those refugees, after all, three years of food tax exemption, after three years only one percent and never raise the tax, this is a good thing to find nowhere to find with a lantern.
At this time, under the influence of Japan's increase in troops in Mukden and Shandong, the situation inside and outside the customs became more and more tense, among which Shandong suffered a lot, and Shandong also had the largest number of refugees. The Japanese policy in Shandong was that if one Chinese dared to attack a Japanese (or soldier), then the whole village would be killed. They caused many bloody cases in Shandong, and the Beiyang government was forced by the Japanese pressure to settle the matter, which made many Chinese people lose confidence in the Beiyang government. More people can only be forced to leave their homeland and go to other places, because Shandong people have the habit of running to the eastern part of the country, and the Chinese are social animals, and most of the people who come to the northeast are Shandong.
The Japanese also created many frictions in Mukden Province and Jilin Province, in a vain attempt to test the bottom line of the Beiyang government, causing dissatisfaction among many Chinese, but the Japanese were not as rampant in Mukden and Jilin as they were in Shandong.
With the propaganda and help of the people sent by Ma Zhongyi, these Shandong, Hebei and Henan people who broke into the eastern part of the country took free trains all the way from Shanhaiguan, Tianjin, Dezhou, Jinan, Shenyang, and Changchun.
After a day of rest, Wang Maoru took his guards and cavalry guards to start patrolling his territory, he can't be like the dog meat general Zhang Zongchang, he doesn't know how many wives he has, he doesn't know how many soldiers he has, he doesn't know how big he is. Now Wang Maoru's wife has two for the time being, 8,000 soldiers (4,500 registered with the War Department of the Beiyang Government), but he only knows that he has 320,000 square kilometers of territory, but I really don't know what the concept of 320,000 is. He rode his war horse and led his officers to start patrolling, in order to prevent him from encountering danger, the headquarters took great pains, and Long Qing's cavalry was also sent out to protect him.
All the way to the north, almost uninhabited, Wang Maoru asked: "Is this our territory?" ”
"Yes, Marshal."
Wang Maoru was helpless, he couldn't see a single figure after walking for a day, it was all meadows, if it weren't for the fact that the northeast had just bloomed in spring, and the weeds had not yet grown taller, it was estimated that even if he was riding a horse, he would only show his head. He asked his subordinates where this was, and Ren Yuanxing took out the Hulunbuir map that he had exchanged for Maeda and said, "Dashuai, this is the Ercona Right Banner." ”
"Help you make sure this is really our territory?"
"Yes."
"Uncle, it's so big." Wang Maoru said with emotion, "No wonder, no wonder. Walking here from Hulun, I rode a horse for five days, but I didn't reach the end. ”
"That's why the big marshal has built up a miracle through the ages." The person next to him patted his ass.
Wang Maoru shook his head, what did he say about the eternal qigong, which cannot be compared with Xu Shuzheng's acceptance of Outer Mongolia at all, and wait until when I accept Outer Mongolia.
The army continued to the north until it reached Qiqian, the largest town in the right banner of Erguna, leaning on the east bank of the Erguna River, opposite the territory of Russia, where there were mostly Oroqen fishermen, and the braids of the Qing Dynasty were not cut. Seeing the arrival of a group of people in black, I knew that the Republic of China had recovered here, and there were only more than 400 households in this town, which was just a large natural village. With more than 400 households and more than 1,500 people, it is already the largest town in the north. (To be continued.)
