Volume G Chapter 20 Buying Land
Over the past night, the new and old navy, major shipyards, and many captains tried their best, naval sailors, merchant ship sailors and dozens of electric water pumps, and the Hiei finally rescued them at dawn. Although the hull suffered huge buoyancy loss, it had leaned to ten degrees. With the whistle of the turbine test ship, the giant ship slowly moved in the expectant eyes and staggered towards Wusongkou. △¢
Seeing that the giant ship finally moved, on the training ship of Tongji, the captain Mao Zhongnan and others who had been struggling for a night and cheered in unison with Sa Zhenbing, who had boarded the ship last night. The Haitian did not have a high-power electric pump back then, so they were not rescued. But today, relying on the big guys from the Shanghai shipyard, as long as the Hiei was not reversed, they could be rescued no matter what.
The battleship, which had just been in service for a few days, was worth 2.4 million pounds and 18 million taels of silver. This was a huge profit. From then on, the navy also had battleships, and they were captured, which was to anger the Japanese.
After the Hiei was rescued, Lieutenant Colonel Mao Zhongnan began to make the idea of those sunken cruisers again. However, those ships really sank to the bottom of the sea. If they want to salvage, they have to wait until the typhoon passes through before they can start. Besides, those ships are old ships of nearly twenty years, and the value they are not very valuable to fish, so they are now going back home.
The Navy seized a large Oriental ship. Before the ship arrived at Wusongkou, the city was empty. More than 100,000 citizens rushed to Wusongkou. After informing the war zone headquarters that the war zone was approved, the Hiei stopped at the Yuzaohama River in Wusongkou for citizens to visit. It was stipulated that one corner of the ship would be used for the restoration of the Hiei. This made it possible that in addition to the prostitute in Yangjinggang, the teahouse in Zhangyuan, and the horse racing course, there was a temporary entertainment project in Shanghai.
Because they are both navy. The result of the Shanghai-Shanghai air battle was sent to Deng Zilong that night. In the early morning, the Hiei was rescued. Gaochang Temple immediately sent the news to boost the morale of the army. Captain Colonel Zhu Tiansen and others were happy and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. According to the result, this battle should have been obtained by Deng Zilong, and they didn't want to take the lead on the shore-based aircraft. Major General Liu Guanxiong and others did not close their eyes all night when they heard the news of the naval battle. The next day, the news of the Hiei rescue came. These 50 or 60 years old were shouting, but after the screaming, except for Liu Guanxiong and Zheng Zuyi, the other captains were secretly making plans. Thinking about who could be the captain after the battleship was repaired?
The typhoon had already rubbed against Taiwan, and the storm on the sea was at sixth festival. Lieutenant Colonel Liu Zhennan, the navigator of the aircraft carrier Deng Zilong, heard the good news in Shanghai and just smiled and replied to the previous seriousness. He was thinking about how to drive the ship into the Dog Harbor before the typhoon came. Now the broken ships of the British Far East Fleet are still parading in the strait. If they want to sink them, they can only avoid it.
"The British call from u-12, and they are heading north, so they can enter the port." Deputy Captain Xi Dingmo said with the telegram he had just arrived. At this time, the fleet was waiting for the last time to help the Marines assist the dogs. However, he did not expect that the dogs he had shot a few days ago have now become his safe haven.
"The entrance between the mountain behind the flag and the bow of the ship is only 109 meters. Although the water depth in the harbor is nine meters, there are many places less than eight meters deep. Be especially careful." After Xi Dingmo said the telegram, he reminded him again, fearing something would happen.
"Don't worry, that place is in my mind." Wu Zhennan sighed. At this time, the engine accelerated. The aircraft carrier drove towards the Dog Port at high speed in the wind and waves.
When the aircraft carrier entered the port, the Port of Beating Dog was naturally on high alert. Yu Qingfang, who had just been named a hero of the Dog Revival, shouted and rushed the several water corpses to leave the port and wait. This was the imperial navy that entered the port to shelter and was not allowed to do so. So, on the small boat that was stormy, the water corpses left the port with a reluctant look on their faces. Fortunately, the fleet's speed was very fast, and it arrived earlier than the agreed time. As soon as these people left the port, they saw several warships flying with dragon flags protecting a huge flat-topped ship and sprinting the waves and galloping towards them.
"Scatter the girl!" A group of watermen were shocked for such a large ship. The dissatisfaction just now disappeared. They were lights and flags, so they quickly contacted the ship, for fear that if the ship was accidentally stranded, their heads would be lost.
Lu Wan, the commander of the Second Brigade of the Land Warrior Division, stood on the lighthouse and watched the aircraft carrier arrive. As soon as the ship showed his face, he understood why the aircraft could take off and land. The aircraft carrier entered the port very slowly, which allowed him to carefully look at the flat-topped ship: the head of the ship was as usual as the dragon and tiger beast logo, but because the ship was large, the logo was also large and it was made very finely. The teeth on the tiger's mouth and the dragon horns above the head were shining with cold light. Except for a sudden bridge on the right side of the slender ship, there was almost no shadow of the cannon on the entire ship.
"Does this ship have no guns?" Lu Wan murmured. The cruisers opening the way in front of the flat-topped ship have turrets, but except for a few small cannons on the side, there are no signs of guns at all.
"It seems that the Navy calls it an aircraft carrier..." Chen Ziming, the chief of staff standing on the side, replied. "This ship is really big!"
"There is a larger one in Shanghai, and the Japanese were captured." Lu Wan gave the Chief of Staff a blank look. However, even though he was like this, when the aircraft carrier passed by the lighthouse, he was still shocked by the hull's huge hull.
With the roar of several water territorial corpses, the Dengzi finally entered the port. As soon as it entered the port, the layers of submersible nets outside the port were impatiently pulled up by several fishing boats. They had submarines, so they were afraid of the enemy's submarines and planes, so they were afraid of the enemy's planes. However, in this weather, the planes could not fly, and the most worried thing was that Japanese submarines would enter the port to attack.
The aircraft carrier was too big and there was no pier. Lu Wan boarded a boat, but there were some troubles when meeting. Because the attack on Taiwan was smoother than expected, the General Staff promoted Lu Wan to colonel, but his epaulette and collar flowers had not been replaced yet, so he couldn't figure out whether he should salute the captain, Colonel Zhu Tiansen first. Fortunately, Zhu Tiansen had learned from the telegram that Colonel Lu Wan was the one who was garrisoning the dog, so the trouble was over.
"The headquarters judged that the typhoon would be weaker in five days, so the operation to land on the Miyako Islands will be launched in five days. The person responsible for the operation is Major General Li Erhu of the 2nd Marine Warfare Division. In order to conceal the intention, they will land on submarines at night; and the night before, there will be special material ships on the other side of the shore, and the task of the fleet is to escort these material ships to various islands; if the landing troops have not yet taken the islands, they will need the assistance of the navy's gunboat aircraft." After the generals of the fleet sat down, Chief of Staff Chen Ziming had no gossip. He directly introduced the next battle situation.
"What's the weather in five days?" The combat officer Lieutenant Colonel Tan Gen was most afraid of wind and rain. If the plane was wind and raining together, the plane could not fight.
"It is expected to be better than today." Chen Ziming said. "The Typhoon striker just passed. When the second wave did not come, there was a twelve-hour time gap in between. These are just speculations. Whether this is true or not needs to be observed again. If the weather is not good, the cruiser fleet will complete this task." When Chen Ziming said that the cruiser completed this task, Liu Guanxiong suddenly felt a little taller. In his opinion, the Japanese Navy is now defeated and if he doesn't seize this opportunity to make meritorious service, his position as the acting commander of the cruiser will be taken away by others.
"Have the fleet's supply supplies arrived? Is it safe to stay here for five days?" Since we had to eat at the sky, Captain Colonel Zhu Tiansen had to wait. What he cared about was the safety and supply of the aircraft carrier.
"All the supplies to be supplied have arrived." Chen Ziming said: "As for safety, we can only say that we will do our best to ensure that we can think of and do everything we can. The only thing we are afraid that the Japanese will come to a few planes, or a warship will shell the port through more than ten kilometers. After all, it is a commercial port."
There was no way for the aircraft carrier to stop and beat dogs. When they came from Peru, they were recharged once in the German colony, but they were temporary supplies. The oil was not fully filled, and if they were on the sea for a few days, they would be out of oil.
"Everyone be careful." Zhu Tiansen also knew the disadvantages of fighting dog port. "Torpedoes in the port are not a big problem, I'm afraid that warships will fire outside the port."
The typhoon hit. There was a heavy rain in southern China, but the weather in the northeast has been very clear. It is a good thing for the Fuxing Army without raining. Now the troops follow the Jingyi Line to attack south. Last night, the troops entered Pyongyang and stood on the Datong River line with the Japanese army; and the 1st Army on the eastern front. Although there was no railway, the vanguard troops also occupied Hamxing. The east coast of North Korea finally had a foothold.
Yang Rui received these good news when he woke up in the morning, but he was not very happy. Last night, Li Shutong found him a "noise and soundproof house" for him, but he sent Yang Wuming over. The reason why his son was here was because Zhu Kuan-hyun's uncle saw that Emperor Gaozong of North Korea was hung in Anton, so he came from Shenyang. Before Cheng Xu left Shenyang, the child was already sent to his house, and Yang Wuming came as soon as he came. The word "restrained" finally allowed Yang Rui to understand what power it is. The kid was so happy that his parents were tired of being around him and didn't want to leave, so he passed by like this overnight.
"Have North Korea made a specific plan?" Good news is not the most important thing. The key is that it has entered North Korea now, and the corresponding policies are about to come out.
"It's done." Li Zilong said. "The General Political Department came up with the final plan a few days ago, which roughly means starting land reform immediately, not after the occupation."
"Why?" What I discussed before was that the land reform was then changed, but now it is not like this. Yang Rui was a little surprised. In addition, when North Korea reforms, what should China do?
"General Fan An of the General Political Department believes that the characteristics of North Korea are that there are few tenants in the north and many tenants in the south, which is also the reason why there are more Yi soldiers in the south than in the north. Now the Japanese want to defend the south, so he believes that land reform will be implemented now, so that all tenants occupied by the Japanese will riot in the south, and they will not be able to resist our army's offensive." Li Zilong introduced the new land reform plan proposed by the General Political Department.
"How much land does North Korea have? How much land rent is?" After hearing Fan An's new plan, Yang Rui began to consider the matter of North Korea's land reform in depth. All these tasks were handed over to the following.
"There are no accurate figures for the time being. Some are data from the previous two years of Shenwu. At that time, there were more than 840,000 paddy fields in North Korea and 1.58 million dry fields, which totaled 2.39 million. This is the data counted by the Japanese at that time." Li Zilong said: "I one town is fifteen acres, and here is 34 million acres of land. However, the Japanese have been conducting forestry field surveys in recent years, and have been large-scale land renovating in recent years. Now it is estimated that the total area of cultivated land is less than 45 million acres."
"North Korea has a population of 20 million, and the average person is only two acres of land?" Yang Rui said. He felt that North Korea's situation was worse than China. Now China's data is about three acres of land per person.
"It should be this number," said Deng Zilong. "Northern tenants now account for about 35% of farmers, self-cultivated farmers and tenants, and more than 20% of middle peasants. The rest are landlords, and they occupy 30% of all cultivated land. The general government directly sets a redemption standard. Pay land rent at 28, and the cultivated land will belong to the tenants after fifteen years."
"Isn't this an open robbery?" Yang Rui smiled. It was indeed not his own place. He just started to do it with a quick move, but he didn't expect that the more detailed plan was not like this.
"That's probably what it means." Li Zilong couldn't see whether Yang Rui agreed or disagree.
"Very good! But if you want to kill people, you must not let our people come forward and push the North Koreans out. Just those North Korean students in the Law and Political Academy ask them to come forward to organize farmers to do this." Yang Rui ordered.
"Yes. Prime Minister." Li Zilong said. "General Fan An also means that. He is in Anton now, right?"
"Well, let him do it, I'll talk to him." Yang Rui nodded. He didn't care about North Korea at all. Goryeo Bangzi really wanted to do this. That was a blessing they had cultivated for several lifetimes.
Fan An came soon, and he had been waiting outside for a long time. In order to turn North Korea into an eternal state of China, he had a lot of thought. Although he didn't understand why he wanted to carry out land reforms in North Korea that even China did not have, he still studied North Korea's affairs very thoroughly.
In North Korea, it was fine when the Qing Dynasty was in the Qing Dynasty. Now the population has grown to more than 20 million, and the per capita arable land is only two acres. In addition, foreigners are bullied and the government is corrupt. People are afraid that they live as good as China. Tenants usually sell rents for 50% of the time, and they can be discounted in the north, but tenants in the south usually sign once a year, and they are not as dependent on the land and will not leave as tenants in some parts of China. Therefore, they cannot pay much discount for rent.
The Fuxing Army entered North Korea and land reform. Although the landlords in the south would stand on the side with the Japanese army, they would want to fight with the Japanese army. If this is the case, the savings of the rich man's family would be profitable after killing and setting fire. Moreover, in order to make the landlords collude with the Japanese army, Fan An gave a plan to release the wind in the early stage and say that the court would directly confiscate the land without any penny, so that the landlords would be dissatisfied and angry. Once people were dissatisfied and angry, it would be easy to take risks. If the war was dissatisfied and the war was stalemate, more landlords would be on the Japanese pirate ships. When the Fuxing Army was pushed to Busan and held a criticism and fight meeting in the whole of North Korea, the pro-Japanese landlords could be taken to the target. If they were more cruel and let the tenants take a few more bites, they would be afraid that all the landlords in North Korea would be destroyed.
Fan An is not a South African military academy student, and that's why he was promoted by Yang Rui until today, so he was 100% loyal to Yang Rui. He didn't hide anything from Yang Rui, and Zhang Kun from the National Bank who came with him was also Yang Rui's confidant, so he sent out his entire plan.
"Two questions, first, doing so reduces the burden on North Korea, but when landlords take the lead in resisting, military spending and casualties will increase. What should I do? Second, North Korea will divide the land if it does not redeem it. What should I do in the country?" The dead are not a problem with revolutionary leaders. The more people die, the greater the hatred. In order not to be tortured by conscience and condemnation by society, those murderers will try their best to defend everything they have done today when they recall these past events. Therefore, if they want to say that killing is just, they must first admit that land reform is just; and if they want to admit that land reform is just, then China is just.
"Sir, after our army captured the Datong River, the remaining war will be handed over to the Korean Yi soldiers. They have now reorganized six divisions and can reorganize twenty divisions by the end of the year. Although there are not enough officers, they can fight and train them during wartime. Our army can only fight in important battles. In this way, they can only give food and bullets, and the artillery shells can be given less." Fan Andao.
After he said that, he looked at Zhang Kun next to him again. Zhang Kun said understandably: "Now, it is mainly because... the Ministry of Revenue has calculated it, and I am afraid that the military expenses will not be collected if the concession continues."
"Can't the military expenses be collected?" Yang Rui was a little surprised. He and the Americans yelled that military expenses cost hundreds of millions of millions of millions of dollars. In fact, the Japanese were defeated, and they didn't even need 100 million of dollars in the current situation. Of course, this must be fast, so fast that the Japanese army is not prepared and cannot resist with all their strength. But if you do this according to Fan An, the Japanese army will be more likely to be prepared.
"Sir, North Korea's economic situation is not as good as before. Take last year as an example. Its fiscal revenue is less than 50 million yen and its expenditure is 55 million yen. This is still the result of Japanese blood transfusions used for North Korea construction. Unlike Taiwan, North Korea does not have large chickens, and it still needs to continuously transfusion blood to lay eggs.
Judging from the data, its agricultural output value is around 410 million yen, and the industry is even less, only less than 30 million. If military expenditure is spent 100 million, it will cost 15 million every year in ten years. We thought that it could be compensated by confiscating Japanese industries, but now it is probably not possible. The annual profit of the most profitable North-South Railway is only 630,000 yuan. With other factories, the total income of the mine will not exceed 3 million. Although the income will increase greatly after investment, it is another business.
If we want to recover these military expenses, we can only find ways to find a way from the agricultural tax. But we cannot reduce the funds invested in state construction from North Korean taxes. The only thing we can do is to divest the income of the North Korean landlords. For example, North Korea's current GDP is 440 million, 10% of the tax, so the annual fiscal period is about 40 million. After removing the landlord's land rent, the tax can be increased to 20%, that is, 80 million taxes per year. Inferring the administrative expenses incurred, the national construction funds that need to be invested in each year and there is still a surplus of about 20 million, which can make up for our military expenses. If the land is redeemed, farmers will have to rent to the landlords for more than ten years. If the tax is not raised so high, it will be difficult for us to recover the capital."
Everything is caused by money. Yang Rui's previous request was: North Korea's current construction cannot be stopped, or it cannot make North Korea poorer but better; at the same time, military expenses must be recovered, no matter how rich China has, it cannot spend it indiscriminately, let alone that it is all over its debt. Without thinking about the two requests, for North Korea, which lacks debt repayment ability, the only way is to sacrifice those landlords and repay military expenses with the land rent given to the landlords. In this way, the people are satisfied, the North Korean government is satisfied, and China is also satisfied, that is, the landlords are dead.
"What should I do in China?" Yang Rui refused to comment and turned to another question.
"Sir, if the landlords are all traitors, then there is nothing wrong with confiscating their property. The matter will not cause too much dissatisfaction when it reaches the country." Fan An said. The core of his plan is to give those landlords the hat of traitors. Perhaps many landlords have not traitors, but the key is who decides whether they traitors. Leave them to outsiders for trial, or they can be realistic, but it can be handed over to legal and political cadres and peasant association cadres who recovered lost land. Those 100 landlords will be judged as traitors.
"In addition, the final plan for land reform in China has also come out." Fan An took out a report from his arms very seriously and handed it to Yang Rui. He has been working on this thing for several years. Now that the Fuxing Army has defeated Japan, the government has finally had enough prestige to do what he wants to do.
"It's better to put it briefly." Yang Rui felt calm. He kept thinking about how to hand over this item to the committee. When he was in Hong Kong that year, the conditions were immature, and he could not trust Yu Zixun, so his land reform plan was just to reduce rent.
"Yes, sir." Fan Andao, "The rent reduction determined before must continue; the main method of this supplementary plan is to redeem the arable land with loans. In recent years, the exact number of arable land occupied by tenants is more than 430 million mu. However, if the land rent is reduced to 10% according to the previously determined plan, more than half of the tenants will not buy land with loans, especially in the south. Many people do not sell the land bones because they cannot survive, but their habits are like this. Now, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Agriculture, and the State Taxation Bureau have conducted in-depth investigations. The tenants who are really likely to buy land with loans are about 30%, no more than 40%. The arable land area is 170 million mu, and absolutely no more than 200 million mu.
The average land price of 200 million mu is 200 million mu, which is 4 billion taels. The government can complete this plan in ten years..."
Chapter completed!
