Chapter 570 Entering the county seat (3)
Zhang Mingde and Chang Xia's eyes lit up when they heard this. They remembered the names of the 16 landlords and 12 villages that participated in the Landlord Alliance very clearly, and Wan Yufu was the number one wanted criminal, so why didn't he remember it? Before sending troops, the land reform committee member also estimated that Wan Yufu might have been hiding in Gaomi County. Unexpectedly, he was still there and almost let him slip through his hands. However, in order to ensure that everything was foolproof, Zhang Mingde asked again: "Is he the Wan Yufu from Beigoukou Village?"
Before Zheng Daiyuan could speak, Wan Yufu's body became weak and he suddenly collapsed on the ground. When Zhang Mingde and Chang Xia met, Zheng Daiyuan didn't need to answer again, and he had already known the correct answer.
Zhang Mingde immediately ordered: "Catch him up."
Two soldiers came over, one left and one right, supporting Wan Yufu from the ground, and of course they also controlled Wan Yufu. At this time, Wan Yufu also knew that he was doomed, so he couldn't say a word.
At this time, Zhang Mingde also realized that the group of people gathered in the county government just now was probably not that simple, and there must be something hidden from him, so he looked at Zheng Daiyuan and others again, and Zheng Daiyuan also turned his head and did not look at Zhang Mingde's eyes.
Zhang Mingde said: "Minister Zheng, it seems that you have something to hide from us. What are you discussing just now and honestly explain it."
Zheng Daiyuan's heart trembled, and he knelt on the ground with a "bang" and said in a trembling voice: "Secretary should be damned, lower officials should be damned, lower officials must be honest." As he said that, Wan Yufu has recruited personnel to pressure him over the past two days, demanding that he mobilize the people of the whole city to defend the county town and fight against overseas Chinese. Of course, in the end he did not forget to excuse himself and said: "Captain Zhang, all the soldiers in the hall can testify, but lower officials have never agreed to them."
Zhang Mingde nodded and looked at Wan Yufu, feeling a little scared. If Zheng Daiyuan really adopted Wan Yufu's suggestion, it would be troublesome. It was not that the People's Army could not capture Gaomi County or dared not attack the city, and this would inevitably cause a large number of casualties to the people, which obviously damaged the reputation of the Time Travel Group. Fortunately, Zheng Daiyuan did not listen to Wan Yufu's suggestion. In addition, according to Zheng Daiyuan, the several landlords brought by Wan Yufu yesterday should be members of the landlord alliance. It seems that there are still many big fish in Gaomi County, but there is no need to panic, because the entire Gaomi County is under the control of the People's Army. Are you still afraid that they will fly out? Now we should go and search Wan Yufu's home in Gaomi County first to see if we can find any information.
Although the Time Travel Group comes from modern society, of course, they do not want to kill the whole family, but this era has its own special features and it is impossible to completely copy the old conventions of time and space. However, landlords like Wan Yufu who openly acted right with the Time Travel Group must not be dealt with by himself. First, there must be accomplices in Wan Yufu's family, and they must be caught and there must be no fish that misses the net. Second, the Wan family is deeply rooted in the local area, has a wrong root, and is very powerful. Therefore, even other family members who are not guilty cannot be allowed to remain in Gaomi County, but they must move them to other places and completely cut off all relations with Gaomi County.
However, Zhang Mingde was too lazy to ask Wan Yufu, but turned to Zheng Daiyuan and said, "Minister Zheng, do you know where Wan Yufu's home is? Find two people to lead us."
Zheng Daiyuan hurriedly said, "I know, I know." He hurriedly called two servants to lead the way for the People's Army. So Zhang Mingde left a platoon of troops to guard the county government, and took other soldiers to escort Wan Yufu away from the county government government.
After they all left, Zheng Daiyuan also breathed a long sigh and finally dealt with overseas Chinese, but his future was still unknown.
Wan Yufu's house is very close to the county government office. In fact, the entire Gaomi County is not big. In the old time and space, it was just a larger community. However, Wan Yufu's house is much better in both scale and construction than the county government office, and it is just right for the time travel group to be an office location in Gaomi County.
There was no obstacle in the process of chasing Wan's house. After all, even Wan Yufu was arrested, so there was nothing else to resist. Moreover, the People's Army came a little suddenly, so Wan Yufu's family was not prepared at all, and they didn't even have time to commit suicide. As a result, they were all arrested. Men, women, young and old were detained. Wan Yufu was locked up in a room alone and sent two soldiers to stare at him in case he committed suicide. The warehouse, accounting and other places were sealed and counted after the land reform committee entered the city.
Then, with Wan Yufu's confession, Zhang Mingde sent the People's Army to arrest seven landlords in Gaomi County who participated in the Landlord Alliance. However, apart from the stop, there was no major incident. Moreover, the county magistrate issued an announcement that after the People's Army entered Gaomi County, it strictly abides by military discipline. Apart from arresting and placing the houses of those who participated in the Landlord Alliance, there was basically no crime. Therefore, there were no chaos. The residents of Gaomi County accepted the result very calmly.
In fact, while the Third Regiment entered Gaomi County, other troops also launched operations outside the city. As a result, in one day, the People's Army entered all 12 villages participating in the landlord alliance, arrested a total of 14 landlord members and their families, and seized their property. Only two landlords saw that the situation was not good, so they hurriedly left the village they lived in on the day of the defeat in attacking Menbu Village and fled. However, the property and land they left behind were still seized.
On the second day, Wang Sheng and Gao Jun led the main members of the Land Reform Commission to Gaomi County, and they had been newly appointed by the Tianjin Executive Committee to establish the Jiaogaomo Region Temporary Administrative Office, which was responsible for managing the administrative affairs of Jiaozhou, Gaomi and Jimo counties. Wang Sheng also served as the administrative commissioner of Jiaogaomo Region and Gao Jun was appointed as the deputy commissioner. It turned out that the Executive Committee considered that the current land reform work was mainly in the three counties of Jiaogaomo, and the Land Reform Commission had basically taken over all powers. If a new administrative agency was established, it would overlap with the existing institutions. Therefore, it simply handed over the local administrative power to the Land Reform Commission. While promoting land reform, it also examined and trained other time travelers to select and establish local administrative agencies after the land reform was over. Of course, it has only entered Gaomi County.
After negotiation, Wang Sheng and Gao Jun decided to temporarily establish four institutions in Gaomi County: civil affairs, finance, business, public security, and responsibilities for management of various affairs in Gaomi County. Of course, the persons responsible for each institution are all the time travelers, and the members of the subordinates are chosen by the persons responsible for the persons responsible for the self-selected, that is, they can be drawn from the local residents of Qingdao, or selected in Gaomi County or surrounding areas. In principle, the officials of the former Qing court can be retained, but necessary training and strict review are required. Not only do they need to pass the qualifications, but they are also strictly supervised to ensure that they do not bring the bad habits of the Qing court's officialdom to the new government.
The office is located in Wan Yufu's mansion, and the sign of the temporary administrative office in Jiaogaomo area is hung, because this mansion is one of the best houses in Gaomi County. It not only has enough space, but also is not far from the county government. At least in a short period of time, it is inevitable to deal with the county government government.
Of course, the composition of various institutions cannot be completed in a short period of time. Wang Sheng and Gao Jun first recruited officials from Gaomi County to carry out various work and information handover. At the same time, they also announced that if the officials, officials, officers, servants and others of the county government are willing to work in the new government, they are fully welcome, but they need to receive assessment and training from the new government.
The officials and servants were a little moved because they were not formal officials of the court, and they were not loyal to the Qing court, and they didn't care who they worked under. As long as they could guarantee their power and status in Gaomi County, they were quite interested in Wang Sheng's proposal, but Zheng Daiyuan and several officials in the county were quite embarrassed. Although Zheng Daiyuan had already prepared to be an official under the overseas Chinese, he had to take the initiative to make requests and sign up for overseas Chinese. Zheng Daiyuan asked himself that he could not do it. After all, Zheng Daiyuan had not forgotten the sage books and scriptures he had read back then, and he still needed some face.
However, Zheng Daiyuan soon became clear-headed. If he couldn't become an official, he couldn't do it. Anyway, it seems that overseas Chinese would probably not kill him. Being able to save his life is a very good result. He has saved some money in the past few years, so he went back to his hometown to buy a few acres of land and be a landlord. Fortunately, his hometown is in Shanxi, and he is not afraid of overseas Chinese carrying out land reform there.
So Zheng Daiyuan said to Wang Shengdao: "Now the county government office has been completed, and the officials have taken over the county town. The officials are useless. I only hope that the officials can get the officials to be dismissed from their posts and return home. The officials are very grateful."
Wang Sheng laughed and said, "Minister Zheng is in his prime, how can he be dismissed from his post and returned home? You are still your Gaomi magistrate and don't have to move out of the county government."
After hearing this, Zheng Daiyuan couldn't help but feel a little confused. Which overseas Chinese are singing?
Wang Sheng smiled and said, "Even if the magistrate Zheng is still in the county government office, all the official documents of the court are still handled according to the usual orders. Everything is as usual. We will pay the taxes of the court's money and grain, as well as the expenses of the county government office."
