"There's one more thing I was wondering if I should give it to you. Yu Dashan hesitated, but finally reached into his arms, took out something and handed it to Yu Xiaobao: "I'll give it to you! This is a knife that Fu Li entrusted me to bring you, and he said that he couldn't come to see you today." ”

"This is the knife he brought with him!" Yu Xiaobao recognized his good friend's things at a glance: "When I saw him the day before yesterday, he also said that he was going to come to the dock to see me off, what's going on?"

This dagger is also a gift from the Li District Working Group to Fu Nuo when they visited Fu Shan Tong for the first time, Yangjiang Zao Kaba 1218. Although it is only a knock-off produced by Dayangjiang in later generations, Li Tong in this era is tantamount to a peerless divine soldier, and this dagger has always been carried by Fu Li as a treasure.

"The executive committee plans to do its best to recruit another group of Li militia, and Fu Li will go back to his mountain to help recruit people. It was brought by his cousin who worked at the docks yesterday. Yu Dashan paused and said softly, "I heard that the chief has approved Fu Li to join the militia. This kid...... Probably not ready to take his grandfather's seat!"

"No wonder he gave me the knife, and when I enter the militia group, I can use the weapons that are uniformly distributed!" Yu Xiaobao is also happy that his good friend can realize his long-standing dream, as for whether Fu Li will succeed Fu Shantong as the head of the mountain, it is not something he cares about now: "Dad, you said that it would be great if I could enter the militia with Fu Li and wear military uniforms!"

"You kid, don't daydream!" Yu Dashan slapped directly on Xiaobao's head, as if he wanted to wake him up from his dream: "Stay in Guangzhou honestly, serve Mr. Shi well, and learn more skills! Don't think about being a soldier and fighting all day long, it's all for the executive committee, your current errand is much better than Fu Li, be a man!"

Yu Xiaobao smirked a few times, and was about to speak, but saw a familiar figure appear behind Yu Dashan: "Uncle Zhang is here!"

As soon as Yu Dashan turned around, he saw that it was Zhang Tiangui, the naturalized migrant foreman of the shipyard, although the two of them were both naturalized civilian cadres who were currently highly valued, and they were quite competitive in private, but they would still say hello when they met.

Yu Dashan saw that Zhang Tiangui was also carrying a large package in his hand behind him, so he took the initiative to ask, "Lao Zhang, is there something you want to bring to your son?"

Zhang Tiangui smiled awkwardly: "Yes...... Originally, I wanted to ask a chief to bring it over, but this time we didn't have a head from the shipping department to go to Guangzhou......"

Zhang Tiangui's youngest son, Zhang Qianzhi, joined the establishment of the Guangzhou Office as a second batch of members together with Yu Xiaobao in September last year. However, the difference with Yu Xiaobao is that Zhang Qianzhi is following the intelligence chief He Xi to do things, and he does not spend much time in the Guangzhou Office. This time, Schneider returned to Shengli Port to report on his work, and He Xi, the deputy director of the Guangzhou Office, was in Guangzhou as a temporary leader, so Zhang Qianzhi, a small follower, was unable to return to his hometown to visit relatives this time.

Yu Dashan didn't wait for him to finish, and said to Xiaobao: "Why don't you take the package for your Uncle Zhang?"

"This ...... How embarrassing is this?" Zhang Tiangui probably didn't expect Yu Dashan to take the initiative, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

"The Guangzhou Office is just the two juniors, both of whom are people who went out of Shengli Port, how can they do it if they don't take care of each other?" Yu Dashan said and gave Yu Xiaobao a slap on the back: "Xiaobao, are you right?"

"Daddy, light!" Yu Xiaobao couldn't help but scream, and then took the package from Zhang Tiangui's hand: "Uncle Zhang, don't worry, I have a good relationship with Qianzhi! ”

"Then thank you Xiaobao!" The expression on Zhang Tiangui's face also became relaxed: "Please bring a word, let him do things honestly in Guangzhou, follow Mr. He to learn his skills, and don't worry about everything at home...... Well, that's it. ”

"It's exactly the same as what my father said!" Yu Xiaobao responded with a smile.

Yu Dashan and Zhang Tiangui glanced at each other, and couldn't help but shake their heads and smile bitterly. (Baidu search update is the fastest and most stable) The mind of parents, these children may have to be experienced in a few years. However, they have been working beside the chiefs at a young age, and after a few years, their status and achievements should greatly surpass that of their parents.

When Yu Xiaobao's cargo ship left Shengli Harbor, Fu Li was in Fu Shan Tong to persuade his grandfather Fu Nuo to accept the conditions offered by the Haihan people.

Due to the recent military operations that require the mobilization of a large number of troops, the port of victory is about to face a period of defensive emptiness, and some people who have always been opposed to the military police department's military expansion plan have finally realized their short-sightedness and began to reconsider the military expansion plan previously proposed by the military police department.

Prior to this, the Ministry of Military Police had proposed a conscription plan for the Li and Miao ethnic groups, but it was not approved during the discussion of the Executive Committee, so it was also suppressed. The starting point of this plan is to use the Li and Miao people on Hainan Island as the main source of troops at this stage, because most of the Li and Miao settlements are in the inland mountainous areas, and the cultural level is generally low, whether as industrial workers or professional farmers, they must go through a long period of training to be barely competent. In fact, most of the Li and Miao people who went out of the mountains to work for the crossing group were indeed engaged in simple heavy labor, such as logging, mining, road construction, etc., and very few were engaged in technical work.

However, some of the young people who joined the Haihan militia in the early stage are outstanding, and their bravery, tenacity and adaptability to the environment are all traits that the military and police department values very much. Except for the occasional brawl between the Li and Miao clans in the camp due to feud, it can be said that the other expressions made the military police department very satisfied. As for the feud, the Military Police Department is not particularly worried that as long as it has fought on the battlefield a few times, the comradeship of sharing the same hatred and life and death will quickly dilute the original ********.

The Military Police Department believes that there are three advantages that cannot be ignored in the large number of young Li and Miao youths who are recruited into the army. First, it can ensure the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, and these brave and ruthless young people in the mountainous areas are indeed more aggressive than the children of peasant families who grew up farming, and this is an important element that soldiers should have. Second, after emptying the young and strong of the Li and Miao tribes in the nearby area, it can also reduce a worry for the crossing group, and the security problems in the jurisdiction alone will be reduced by at least half compared with now, and the Li Tong Miao Village after losing the youth can only rely more on the material supply of the crossing group. Third, the Li and Miao clans do not have any dependents, and they only adopt an attitude of listening to the local government of the Ming Dynasty and not listening to propaganda, according to the political principle of "making fewer enemies and more friends" said by Grandpa Mao, it is obviously a good way to draw these two ethnic groups into their own camp as much as possible, and let their young people enter the Haihan military circles.

However, when this plan was put forward at that time, the opposing opinion was that a large number of young men should not be recruited into the military and police department, which was not so urgent to expand, under the condition of labor shortage, and whether these native Li Miao youths would do something beyond the control of the military police department after mastering the guns in batches, no one dared to fight this package. Therefore, for various reasons, this targeted expansion plan of the Military Police Department was not approved in the end. It is worth mentioning that Fu Li's application to join the army has not been approved, in fact, there are indeed concerns in this regard, after all, he is the heir of Fu Shantong, and this kind of person with a certain political status and influence in the local area to enter the militia is not necessarily a good thing for the crossing group.

But with the continuous expansion of the power of the crossing group, the situation is also slowly changing. After the opening of the colony of the Black Soil Port in North Vietnam, a large number of Li and Miao soldiers were consciously stationed overseas, and at the same time, a large number of North Vietnamese immigrants began to enter the port of Shengli, diluting the local population ratio of Li and Miao. For the first time, the Military Police Department has also received the demographic dividend brought about by a large number of immigrants, and the labor force of the Li and Miao ethnic groups is no longer a resource to be fought for by various departments, and the Military Police Department was able to once again put the plan of recruiting young people of the Li and Miao ethnic groups into the army on the agenda of the Executive Committee.

At this time, the advantages of the military resources of the Li and Miao ethnic groups began to be highlighted again, because of language and cultural reasons, the Han naturalized people were the implementation objects of the Executive Committee's plan to train a large number of industrial workers, while the North Vietnamese naturalized people had just arrived, and they could only arrange some clumsy work for them to complete first. At present, the only unit formed by the naturalized citizens of North Vietnam is the special operations company in Heitu Port, which has high hopes from the Military Police Department and is personally led and trained by Qian Tien Dun. In this way, the Li and Miao tribes have undoubtedly become the most suitable targets for conscription at present.

As for the security problems caused by the proportion of troops that some people are worried about, the Military Police Department has also made better arrangements. With the expansion of the area controlled by the crossing group, the Military Police Department can now selectively transfer local companies to other places for garrison, and units such as the Black Soil Port Special Operations Company, which are mainly North Vietnamese immigrants, can also be transferred back to the Shengli Port area in the future to be stationed, and the system of stationing troops in other places will be implemented, thus greatly reducing the possibility of uncontrollable problems at the bottom of the army.

Under the conscious operation of the Military Police Department, it finally opened its mouth and approved Fu Li's application for enlistment, which was still completely unthinkable three months ago, when the Executive Committee's attitude towards Li Tong and Miao Zhai was still based on control, supplemented by support, and the members of the ruling families of the Li and Miao clans could not enter the militia system, so as not to lose the control of some low-level soldiers.

Of course, even so, the arrangement of Fu Li is still very elegant, his company is basically Han Chinese, supplemented by a small number of North Vietnamese immigrants, and the Li and Miao tribes are the only one of them, so as to eliminate the possibility of him influencing other soldiers as the heir of Fu Shan Tong to the greatest extent. And during the period when Fu Li served as a military officer, he must temporarily give up the right to inherit the lord of Fu Mountain, if he wants to choose to be the lord of the mountain, then he must first retire from the army and leave the militia group, and the two identities of the soldier and the lord cannot be both.

In addition, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Agriculture have already planned to relocate Fu Shan Tong as a whole, and I am afraid that the name Fu Shan Tong will have to be changed at that time, and the influence of Fu Li's heir status will naturally weaken a lot. The only thing that will regret this is probably Ning Qi, who proposed to support a puppet leader of the Li people.

Fu Li himself has no objection to this arrangement, for him to be able to enter the Haihan militia and wear this long-awaited military uniform, it is already a great happiness, as for being the master of Fu Shan Pass, is it really that important? If it were not for this mission, Fu Li would not be very willing to return to Fu Shan Pass when he had just joined the army and was full of freshness to the army.

"Grandpa, the meaning of the head of Haihan is that we hope that the entire Fu Shan Pass can be moved outside the mountain, and drive the other Li Tong to slowly move to the coastal places. The Ministry of Agriculture has allocated us a lot of land in Tiandu, and will send people to teach us how to grow spices, and grain, iron tools, and other good things will also be openly supplied to us, and everyone's life will be better and better in the future!" Fu Li sat beside Fu Nuo and patiently explained to him the policy of the Executive Committee.

Fu Nuo shook his head and said: "The children want to live a good life and go outside the mountains to earn money, which I don't object, but the Haihan people let us relocate, and this is to break up Li Dong." Fu Li, after moving out, Fu Shan Tong will no longer be Fu Shan Tong!"

According to the plan of the executive committee, the Litong Miao Village in the inland area near Sanya will be gradually relocated outside the mountains and join the development army of Hainan Island. Li people like Fushantong would be placed in the Shili Valley from Tiandu to Tielu Port, where women and the elderly would be engaged in spice cultivation, the young and strong would enter the militia system, and the children would begin to receive orthodox Haihan-style education. The Executive Committee believed that it would take only a few years to transform these mountain dwellers into supporters of the new regime.

Fu Li retorted: "Grandpa, you said before that we Li people are not like this because we like to live in the mountains, if we have a choice, we also want to live a life as rich as the Han people." But now such an opportunity is already in front of us, as long as we go out, the executive committee can provide us with a qiē to live the life of a Han people. Isn't it good that if we understand the care of the Executive Committee, the Yazhou government will no longer levy our labor and collect our taxes in the future?"

"But the Haihan people have dragged all our young men to serve as soldiers......" Fu Nuo still felt uncomfortable.

"Grandpa, the Haihan people didn't pull anyone, and we went to be soldiers on our own volition!" Fu Li straightened his chest proudly, and a brand-new gray cloth military uniform seemed to confirm what he said.

"You went to be a soldier, who will inherit this Fu Shantong......" Fu Nuo always felt a little dazzling when he saw the military uniform of the Haihan Militia Regiment.

"Grandpa, do you really think it is necessary for Fu Shan Tong to inherit it?" Fu Li's face appeared with a stern expression that did not match his age: "We have more than 300 households and more than 1,000 people in Fu Shan Tong, how many of us still live here now? 500 or 600? Most of the young people like me have already left the mountain, and many of them have already entered the nationality of naturalized people, why do we still have to guard this place? Do you remember when Mr. Ning came to visit in the past, why did we agree to cooperate with him?"

"Yes. Of course, Fu Nuo remembers how Ning Qi persuaded himself nine months ago to let the people of Li Tong go out to work for the Haihan people: "He said that we should stop worrying about food, so that young people can dress beautifully, and children can read and write!"

"Since the Haihan people have done what Mr. Ning promised, then why can't we continue to cooperate with them and move to a better place to live?" Fu Li continued to persuade: "The leaders have said that when the time comes, we can still form a village to live, but for the sake of ease of management, we can no longer call it a commune in name." When we move in, we will set up a Fushan commune, and we can still live together. ”

"Then where we live now, just abandon it like this?" Although Fu Nuo was also very moved to hear it, he was still very unwilling to think that Fu Shan Pass, which had been inherited for a hundred years, would be wiped out.

"It is said that all of this place will be used to plant trees in the future, and it is a kind of ...... A large tree called a rubber tree has been planted in many places in Tiandu. Fu Li replied as he recalled.

"Banana trees, aren't they all over the mountains?" said Fu Nuo.

"It's not a banana, it's rubber...... In short, it is very different from the banana tree, grandpa, you will know when you have time to go to Tiandu. Fu Li got up and said: "I still have to discuss the relocation of Fu Shantong with the third uncle and the fifth uncle to see how to arrange it." ”

"I haven't agreed to this condition yet!" Fu Nuo exclaimed angrily.

"Then grandpa, what do you want?" Fu Li knew that he had already relented when he heard his tone.

"We have to build a village for us first, and let us send someone to see it, and then move it if we think it's okay! In addition, the Haihan people must ensure our food supply! And the conditions that were promised to us before must also continue to be followed!" Fu Nuo thought for a while, and finally put forward a few conditions that he thought were very necessary.

"Okay, the chiefs will definitely agree!" Fu Li nodded heavily, and said confidently.

From his own point of view, Fu Li didn't understand why the attitude of the Executive Committee had changed in the past few months, but it was clear that this was an excellent opportunity for Fu Shantong's parents and fellow villagers to change their lives. Fu Li has lived in Shengli Port for several months, and has also seen the rapid changes in the Shengli Port area up close, even if he does not know the purpose of the Executive Committee to arrange the relocation of Li Tong Miao Village at this time, and prepare to recruit a large number of militiamen, but there is one thing Fu Li thinks is undoubtedly very clear, only the Haihan Executive Committee has the ability to change the backward and poor living conditions of the Li people for hundreds of years, and can lead everyone to live a truly good life.
