Chapter 315: The whole nation is a soldier (third update, please subscribe)
"For the Argentines, the reason they chose this military adventure is that in their eyes, the South China is as vulnerable as the Indians. Until now, they have believed that our military victory in Chile is not a military victory at all, but a political victory, so they have the capital to be arrogant."
What kind of victory was Chile's military victory?
Until now, to the outside world, what happened in Chile was nothing more than a military coup, and Nanhua won the victory only by relying on political speculation, not a real victory.
So in their view, everything that happened in Chile has no reference value at all. That is why they have blind self-confidence.
"This is such a joke. Not only do they ignore our leading position in military technology, but they also completely disregard our determination to defend our country!"
For Li Sijie, who has been in Nanhua for eight years and basically grew up in this land, he is more accustomed to using "country" to describe this place. This is perhaps the biggest difference between them and many immigrants.
"Yes, they have forgotten the simplest truth in the world - when friends come, we have wine; when wolves come, we have swords and guns! Since the robbers have come to our door, then we should welcome their arrival with swords and guns! Now..."
Zhu Xianhai said in an extremely calm tone.
"They chose to start the war, so how to end it is entirely up to us!"
Just as Zhu Xianhai said this, behind him, Nanhua had already implemented a full mobilization. What is "total war"?
After the outbreak of a total war, a full mobilization will be carried out at the national level. This is undoubtedly unfamiliar to people of this era, but one thing is certain: in a total war, the side that completes full mobilization first is often the victorious side.
Mobilization is not just mobilization at the industrial level. For a country, mobilization at the industrial level is the easiest. What really needs to be mobilized?
It's the spirit, it's the mobilization of the people!
Nanhua is not a country!
It is well known that this is just one company - America Corporation owns everything here, from the city to the farm, almost everything belongs to the company. There is not even private land here - all the land is "company-owned".
In the city, people work for companies either in factories or in other corresponding enterprises, while in the countryside, people work on farms and in factories, and they are all farm workers.
Although the farms belong to the company, the farm workers have management rights. Although these farms are called company farms, they are actually more like collective communities, mainly engaged in agricultural production, as well as handicrafts and basic industrial production.
All farms in Nanhua follow the same principle: company-owned and worker-managed. This kind of management is a kind of procedural autonomy. The term of office of the farm manager is five years. The farm workers must be elected through secret ballot. A majority of more than two-thirds of the vote is required to become the farm manager.
What role does the company play in this?
The company only sends an accountant to calculate the production costs and profits of the farm. According to the profit-sharing principle, after calculating the wages and production costs, the company only extracts 50% of the profits each year. The remaining profits belong to the farm, part of which is used for farm accumulation and part is used to distribute various benefits to employees.
At the same time, children born and raised on the farm cannot automatically become farm workers. They can apply to join the commune when they are 18 years old. After applying, they can become farm workers only if they obtain the consent of more than two-thirds of the majority in a secret ballot of the entire farm.
The management of the farm is not solely the work of the farm director. In addition to the farm factory, there is also a "farm affairs committee" elected by the workers, who are responsible for the management and operation of the farm. In addition, there is a supervisory body, the "board of supervisors", which is composed of accountants, farm worker representatives and farm school teachers. The management and operation of the farm are carried out by the farm affairs committee, but the board of supervisors oversees the operation of the farm.
In order to ensure mutual supervision between the two parties, the accountant's term of office is only one year, and the farm school teachers have a service period of only five years. In addition, the irregular inspections by the company's irregular supervisors have made the farm management quite effective.
Like all the farms in Nanhua, the farm management meeting of Huaibei Farm is located in the center of the farm. In front of the meeting is a small square 150 meters long and 60 meters wide. This square is not only a market, but also a training ground for the civil defense team.
At this time, hundreds of civil defense teams had rushed over from all over. When they gathered here, their wives and children all looked at them with worry. Many women had tears in their eyes. Although the women looked at their men with tearful eyes, they just stood there quietly with their children in their arms. At most, they just stood there and reminded their men to be careful.
At the same time, in the meeting room of the Field Management Committee, members of the Field Management Committee and the Supervisory Committee gathered together.
"Everyone, the company has issued a mobilization order. Our Huaibei Field naturally needs to respond to the company's mobilization order. Please make preparations and do your best to cooperate with the call of the government army. Everyone, remember one thing, the national law is ruthless, so don't test it yourself!"
In the smoke-filled conference room, only the director Li Mingan was speaking. As a second-generation immigrant, Li Mingan knew very well that there was an essential difference between the government of Nanhua and that of the Qing Dynasty, and that the laws of the country were ruthless!
Over the years, they have long been accustomed to the laws of Nanhua, which enforce the law strictly and will never treat anyone differently because of differences in status.
If someone violated the mobilization order and deserted, he would definitely be handed over to a military court.
military law!
They are no strangers to military law. Take the training of the civil defense team for example. If someone misses daily training without reason, they will be beaten with a stick according to military law. Well, the navy calls it a "spirit injection stick". After a few beatings, the person will definitely be in good spirits.
If military law is violated during the annual exercises, the punishment is not as simple as beating with a stick. Even now, there are people who are imprisoned in hard labor camps for violating military law.
As for being a deserter during the war!
That would be punishable by death!
"Captain Li, don't worry. We all support the government. The foreign devils want to seize our land. We can't let them succeed no matter what. Don't worry, any soldier from Huaibei Field who deserts will not only be punished by military law, but also his wife and children will be expelled!"
As soon as Zhang Dahu, the worker representative of the Supervisory Board, finished speaking, Cui Daoqi, a teacher at the school, spoke.
"You can't say that the family members will not be affected by the disaster. We must boost morale right now, not let it down!"
"That's right, that's right. Mr. Cui said that morale must be boosted. Well, tell everyone that even if they die on the battlefield, the farm will not forget their families. In the future, the farm will naturally take care of their wives and children, and they will definitely not be treated unfairly every month..."
After that, Li Mingan turned his eyes to Wang Tao, who was wearing glasses. He was the accountant sent by the company and had just taken office for a month. They were not familiar with each other. On the issue of spending money, he had to seek the accountant's opinion.
"Accountant Wang, do you think this is okay?"
Every penny spent on the farm will undergo a strict audit. According to the farm rules, once corruption or embezzlement is discovered, the offender will be sent directly to Tierra del Fuego to serve hard labor, the accountant will be exiled to Alaska, and the auditor will compensate double the loss.
Under such circumstances, the accountant could never agree with the director, and they did not even know each other. There was a certain degree of mutual restraint between them.
"According to the farm's charter, there are provisions for raising the bereaved, and the military also provides compensation. As long as it complies with the farm's charter, there will be no problem!"
Wang Tao said directly.
"And I believe that Nanhua will never mistreat any of the soldiers who shed blood for it! What we should do now is to pass the conscription order to every conscripted worker and take good care of their families. Only in this way can they go to the front line without any worries."
Wang Tao, who graduated from an accounting school, may not know more than them, but he knows very well that Nanhua will never mistreat anyone who has shed blood for him, no matter who the other person is!
"As long as we can do this, the soldiers on the front lines will feel at ease. What do you think?"
