Fengxian Jiangshan

Then it led to doubts about Fengtian's various policies. Some bombarded farms as new prisons, and used huge loans to turn farmers into slaves; they also attacked infrastructure construction, saying that Fengjun had money to invest in infrastructure. , but there is no money to help the people. There are thousands of homeless children in the three northeastern provinces, and countless people who are short of food and clothing. Why don't you help them if you have money.

Some people directly attacked the education system: "Feng Jun has been advocating science and engineering education, under the pretense of developing industry, and now we can see sinister intentions. They just want no one in society to write articles, no one can Only by thinking independently can they control speech and enslave the common people. The arrest of reporter Zhao Tianhong is a sign of the disappearance of speech freedom, alas, the era of silence has finally come!"

"Finally, I have seen how powerful the literati's pens are. They don't use knives to kill people. They can turn black and white and confuse the public as long as they use their pens. It's really disgusting."

"Director Chang, it's not enough to just know. If you don't produce more real and powerful evidence, you won't be able to deal with these literati."

Chang Yinhuai said with a confident smile: "Commander-in-chief, you are really clever, and your guess is not bad at all. The Manchurian Railway Co., Ltd. controls the "Fengtian Morning Post". I would like to see those heroes sought after by literati suddenly become Traitors, what else can they say!"

Chapter 4 Seventy

Chu Mingyuan hurried back to Fengtian from Rehe. According to Zhang Tinglan's instructions, he built a large pasture in the Rehe area with a loan.Since the first batch of farms in the three northeastern provinces had already made a profit, the common people had funds in their hands and started to improve agricultural tools, and the prices of cattle and horses rose all of a sudden.

Moreover, with the outbreak of the Russian Civil War, the demand for military canned food continued unabated, and the demand for meat was also very strong. The farm that Chu Mingyuan planned to build continued to expand, and the total area under his control had reached more than 300 million mu, where cattle and sheep were raised. With more than 1000 million animals, it has become the largest livestock supply base in Eastern Mongolia.

He was still not satisfied, so this year he successively established woolen mills, canning factories, leather garment factories, and invested in the largest livestock trading center in Dongmen in Chifeng.At the same time, the tentacles of the enclosure were extended to Chahar and Suiyuan, directly controlling more than 10 farmers and herdsmen.

The part of the disaster victims he was in charge of had already gotten rid of poverty and became rich. In less than five years, they owned their own land and houses.Moreover, many of them have become managers of new ranches and factories, from farmers to entrepreneurs, and their identities have undergone earth-shaking changes.

Everyone no longer has to worry about not being able to eat enough. Chu Mingyuan is not only developing the economy, but also investing heavily in education. The children of all farm members can enjoy subsidies for studying. more subsidies.After graduating from middle school, the ranch is responsible for arranging work.Any family, as long as there is a college student, will be rewarded with 100 yuan. College students can choose their own industry, or they can return to the ranch and directly enter the management team.

The upheaval in life is unimaginable for the victims who were originally struggling on the verge of life and death.Many of them are even richer than the richest local rich man in the village, and they have seen a wider range of worlds. They are all full of confidence and hope that the future will be better.

It was beyond Chu Mingyuan's expectation to be able to achieve this step, but seeing the peasants embarking on the road to prosperity, he had some other ideas. No matter how good the business is, the people who can benefit are very limited after all. , rather an appropriate policy.But it can benefit all people.

He thought for a long time, and prepared to visit Zhang Tinglan and Wang Yongjiang in Fengtian, especially since he also knew that Zhang Zuolin had been assassinated and died, Fengtian was in a period of intense turmoil, and he also wanted to relieve Zhang Tinglan's worries.

But after Fengtian.Chu Mingyuan was stunned all of a sudden, and there were disturbances everywhere.There was a commotion all over the street.Many students took to the streets, marching and demonstrating with various slogans.All the dining and tea shops were talking about it, and the guests were whispering to each other, discussing the arrest of Zhao Tianhong.

Chu Mingyuan bought a newspaper at random, and the headline on the front page was the "Fengtian Morning Post" article "Please release me again".After such a long time of experience, he has already been able to deal with all kinds of things calmly.After carefully reading the newspaper, he figured out the ins and outs of the matter, then he smiled dumbly and tore up the absurd paper to shreds.

Right now.A group of students happened to pass by here, and Chu Mingyuan strode up to these students and blocked their way.

"Students, wait a moment, I want to ask you, why are you launching a parade?"

When one of the leading students saw that someone was blocking them, his eyes immediately widened: "Who are you? Do you want to be a pawn of the government? Get the hell out of here!"

Chu Mingyuan smiled slightly: "Student, I am sensible in reading. I am just an ordinary passer-by. I am just curious. If you really have a reason, tell it to make people feel convincing. Why bother to speak rudely and lose your demeanor."

"Hmph, what else is there to say? The government illegally arrested reporter Zhao, suppressed freedom of speech, and wanted all the people to be slaves. Naturally, we have to stand up, plead for the people, and fight the tyrannical government to the end."

While talking, many people gathered around again. A man in his forties heard the student's words and couldn't help shaking his head: "I say student, I have spent most of my life in Fengtian, that is, these two years. Life is getting better, the government has done a lot of things for us, the tax has been reduced, the law and order has improved, and we have made more money. Everyone has seen this with their own eyes. How can you say that the Fengtian government wants to treat us as What about slaves, it's outrageous, outrageous!"

These words won the nods and praises of many people, but the student still curled his lips and said with a sneer: "There is nothing unclear about this point, it's just raising pigs. First use small favors to buy people's hearts and paralyze fighting spirit. One Where there is no freedom, if you don’t know how to respect the legal system and wantonly trample on civil rights, there will be no long-term development. Don’t be fooled by the small profits in front of you. The most precious things in this world are dignity and freedom. Without these things, we What is the difference between them and livestock. Looking at the whole of China, only the government in the Northeast has the most treacherous intentions, destroying academic freedom, suppressing speech, and disrespecting scholars. How can this go on like this!"

This student's impassioned speech made everyone hear specious, incomprehensible, and unable to refute, and he became more and more proud.

Chu Mingyuan laughed suddenly from the side: "In a word, it's nothing but rhetoric! You say that the Northeast government is the most reactionary and tyrannical, but I would like to ask, where in China is the best people's livelihood, where is the Where is the industry the most developed, where is the most popular education, where is the best urban construction, where is the lightest burden on farmers, where is the least tax burden, where is the least beggar, and where is the most job opportunities? If these are small favors, and where What is a big deal? Why do you say that the worst government can provide the best living conditions?"

Faced with Chu Mingyuan's repeated questioning, the student was immediately speechless. It's okay for a young student who has no experience in the world to shout a few slogans, but it's still too immature for him to really talk about some social issues.More and more citizens gathered here, and everyone heard what Chu Mingyuan said, and kept nodding their heads, and some even clapped their hands.

"Sir, what you said is exactly what we want to say. The Fengtian government is indeed good. It has done a lot of practical and good things. It accidentally arrested a reporter, so it won't cause trouble all over the city!"

"That's right, he was arrested just now, and there is no news of his disposal yet, so why make a fuss and refuse to let him go!"

"Students, you all go back to your studies. You can't meddle in national affairs. If you want to plead for the people, we all have an account in our hearts. We know who is good and who is bad."

More and more people questioned it, and the effect was much better than that of Chu Mingyuan, which made the students' momentum weaker.They came out to march in order to win the support of these people, and then set off a bigger wave. As a result, the people didn't buy it, and they lost the courage to continue.

"They are all a bunch of ignorant people. They are so ignorant and numb. The Fengtian government can trample on the human rights and legal system today, arrest reporter Zhao, and arrest you tomorrow. If you don't object now, then no one will speak for you!" Still arguing.

Chu Mingyuan smiled slightly: "Students, you keep saying that you respect the legal system, why don't you act according to the law, Zhao Tianhong was arrested, you can go to the police station and ask them to explain the reason, you can go to the court to appeal, take the formal way, and solve the problem In the end, these things were not done, and you insisted that the Fengtian government was trampling on the rule of law. If you found out that the reporter really had a problem and should be arrested, what would you do?"

While talking, a young man ran over in a panic and shouted loudly: "Big news, big news! "Fengtian Morning Post" was confiscated, and a large number of documents were found in the newspaper office. The boss behind the scenes is Nan Manchurian Railway Co., Ltd., many members of the newspaper were involved in the espionage case."

The news fell on everyone's heads like a thunderbolt, knocking out many people at once.Zhao Tianhong, who was constantly boasted, turned out to be a spy, and the Fengtian Morning Post, which pretended to be pleading for the people, turned out to be a newspaper controlled by the Japanese.

Then it is self-evident for whom they are pleading for orders, setting off a wave of demonstrations against the Fengtian government, and what sinister plans they have.

"Students, do you hear me? You should be arrested, and you should be arrested! Plead for the people, are you pleading for the Japanese?"

The situation changed suddenly. Faced with the doubts of these citizens, the students' faces were flushed, and they wanted to find a crack in the ground to sneak in. Several people even cried anxiously. They never thought that such a situation would happen.

On the contrary, Chu Mingyuan said with a smile to everyone: "Students, I believe that you don't mean to speak for spies. If you know about the issue of "Fengtian Morning Post", you may hate it more than us. You are all deceived. But You should also review your own behavior, being passionate is not a bad thing, but you need to use your brains and think more when doing things, don’t follow others, sometimes you don’t even know when you are being used by others.”

"Sir, we don't all want to parade. The teachers forced us to come out. If we don't come out, they will let us fail our courses and even fail to graduate!" A female student said crying.

Chu Mingyuan raised his brows suddenly. He is a teacher who has experienced some bad things. He has already experienced it himself, and said with a sneer: "If I guessed right, your teacher is hiding behind the scenes again. He dances and drinks and makes you If you come out to take risks on the streets, these guys are simply instigators, literary thieves!"

It’s not just Chu Mingyuan who sees it this way, Zhang Tinglan also has a detailed list in his hand, and Chang Yinhuai introduced from the side: “Zhuoyan, most of these teachers who jumped out were students who had studied in Japan. They don’t have much knowledge of science and engineering, so most of them teach things like Chinese and history, and this time they are behind the scenes.”

"Get rid of them all. These pro-Japanese teachers are more harmful than spies. We must not leave any of them, and we can't let them harm students again!"

Chapter 471 Duan Qirui Steps Down

There are two most difficult things in the world. The first is to take money from other people's pockets into your own hands, and the second is to put your own thoughts in other people's heads.

In a person's life, some concepts formed around the age of 20 will not change for almost a lifetime, and at this time, teachers play the most important role, and their words and deeds subtly affect every student.With the influence of a large group of pro-Japanese teachers, the results produced are absolutely unimaginable.It is even blunt to say that these teachers are far more harmful than those spies, they have almost poisoned an entire generation.

"Since they jumped out, take this opportunity to clean it up for me, not only to deal with spies, but also to deal with all these literary thieves."

Chang Yinhuai hurriedly nodded in agreement, and Zhang Tinglan explained: "However, we must pay attention to distinguishing these teachers. If they are simply deceived, they can be given a chance to reform themselves. If they are purely pro-Japanese, they will be kicked out of the teacher team. As for those who have too deep acquaintance with Japan, we must investigate the problems behind it, find out whether the Japanese are engaged in cultural aggression, consciously cultivate traitors and cultural thieves, and once discovered, we must resolutely put an end to it.”

"Mr. Minyuan, at present, it seems that our management of the university is still seriously inadequate. The guns and pens are the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. If either side floods, it will cause harm to the people in several provinces, especially the pen. We must not lose our vigilance. I It is suggested that after this turmoil is over, the university should set up a special political discipline department. In addition, the university's financial management should be managed, and the teaching materials should be unified. This group of scholars should be watched, and they should not be allowed to say whatever they want! "

"Don't worry about Zhuoyan, I'll make preparations right away and promise to come up with a comprehensive plan."

Yang Yuting, who was on the side, also suddenly said: "Clumsy words. These clowns are easy to deal with. As long as they jump out, they will never run away. But what worries me is the attitude of the Japanese. They are silent. This time To capture their spies and to attack the traitors they cultivated has already touched the interests of the Japanese, and it is impossible for them to remain indifferent.”

"That's right, I think. They're going to have a showdown with us!"

Zhang Tinglan's guess was indeed right. The Japanese have gained something through such tossing. They have already obtained some things they want.Akajiri Masasuke has gathered some key information and is reporting to the country.

"Mr. Consul General. This is the latest piece of information, for this piece of information. Three intelligence personnel from the empire have been arrested."

Akajiri is helping to catch it.After taking a look, he suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, and said proudly: "It's worth it, this little sacrifice is worth it, Fengjun's handle is in our hands!"

Akajiri Masasuke hurriedly sent the information back to Japan, but this information did not reach Prime Minister Kaoru Hara first.Instead, it fell into the hands of Minister of the Army Tian Zhongyiyi.After reading the information, Tanaka hurriedly went to pay a visit to Yamagata Yutomo, the most powerful veteran in Japan.

Youtomo Yamagata is already in his early eighties, and the old guy died after Ito Hirobumi.In the Japanese political arena, he can call the wind and call the rain, say what he says, and has unparalleled power.But just like all political figures, Shanxian Youtomo inevitably gets old, and he cultivates Tanaka more and more, hoping that he can continue to lead the entire faction.

"Old man, I already have the exact information that Fengtian has smuggled a batch of important equipment from Europe. These equipment represent the most advanced technological level in Europe. Once they fall into the hands of Fengjun, their strength will rapidly expand. beyond the reach of the Empire."

"Didn't the Moon Goddess be intercepted a few days ago, and it resulted in a dispute with the United States. This kind of thing must not be reckless."

"Old man, the information this time is very reliable, and there are reasons to suspect that the Moon Goddess was deliberately set up by China. The Fengtian government is very sinister and is a strong enemy of the empire. I think they should decisively send troops while they are still relatively weak. , Occupy Manchuria!"

Tanaka Yoshiichi first found Shan County, hoping that the veteran would support his war claims. At this time, Japan was doing its best to engage in a naval competition with the United States and Britain, and a large amount of funds were poured into the navy. Tanaka Yoshiichi was not satisfied with this. It is hoped that through the war, the role of the army will be strengthened, and at the same time, it is also to swallow the Northeast and lay the foundation for swallowing the whole of China.
