Rebirth of the National Marshal

Soviet-Mongolian border area

Ever since we wiped out an entire infantry division of the Russians in the last battle, they have been much more obedient recently. Not only have they withdrawn their troops near the Soviet-Mongolian border, but they have also strictly prohibited their people from coming here.

This is mainly because the living conditions in Chahar are better than theirs. The Soviet Union suffered a severe famine in the past year, and people have starved to death. Although Chahar does not have a well-off life, the people still have no problem getting enough food.

In fact, the land under Mao Yuanshan's control that can be cultivated is not much, but he has black technology. Mao Yuanshan can exchange some high-yield seeds in the system. These seeds are still eye-catching in the 21st century. The wheat yield per mu is as high as thousands of kilograms, even if it is only harvested once a year.

The present era is different from the previous era. If it were the 21st century, any land that was slightly useful would either be used to build buildings or to develop some infrastructure projects. It can be said that the space left for arable land is getting less and less. But the present era is different. Even if you build so many buildings, no one will need them, and there is not much money to develop infrastructure. It is still more cost-effective to farmland.

Now there are more than 1 million mu of arable land in Mongolia, Chahar and Rehe regions which they conquered. No matter what Mao Yuanshan does, even if they rely on the weather for their food, it will be no problem to feed thousands of people.

According to calculations by the agricultural department of the Chahar Provincial Government, even if the minimum harvesting standards are followed, 2500 million tons of wheat can be harvested. There are only 1500 million people in the jurisdiction now, and you can never eat all of this 2500 million tons of wheat. In addition, there are often canned meats that Mao Yuanshan exchanges for. After Mao Yuanshan was promoted, that thing became extremely cheap.

One merit point can be exchanged for 100 canned meats.

As for vegetables, the weather in the north is relatively cold, and there is no greenhouse grafting technology in that era, so they can only grow cabbage. This is also one aspect in which Mao Yuanshan feels sorry for the people below, as he did not let them eat well. However, the people do not think so. Forget about eating well, as long as they can eat canned cabbage stew every year, that is the good life they can only have during the Chinese New Year.

The demands of the Chinese people are really not high. As long as they can be given something to eat and as long as they are not hungry, they will do anything you ask them to do. They are the most hardworking people in the world.

The common people in the jurisdiction of the Chahar Provincial Government printed out Mao Yuanshan's portrait as if it were Guanyin Bodhisattva and placed it directly in their homes for worship. According to them, Guanyin Bodhisattva may not be able to fill our stomachs, but this person can fill our stomachs, and this is the best for the people.

Besides, most of the people in the Soviet-Mongolian border area are Mongolians. When the Chahar army first occupied Mongolia, they were extremely distrustful of them and did not arrange for them to join the army. But after more than half a year, the people in the Mongolian region finally found a sense of belonging. They realized that they had taken the wrong path by following the three princes before, and they are actually part of the Chinese people.

The Mongolians are all relatively honest men. They cannot express anything with words, so they show their love for their motherland with their actions. There are construction sites everywhere on the Mongolian prairie. They have won the favor of the Han people with their own strength, and the Han people have given them jobs and food.

The Han people were not the kind of demanding people. They were very happy to see them change so quickly. After all, they all had the same ancestors, and the entire harmonious society could not be destroyed because of a small number of separatist forces. So everyone warmly accepted their return.

In recent months, their income has increased due to their participation in various infrastructure projects, and these people in border areas are living a very good life.

Mengdan used to be a hero at the Nadam Festival. Now he is an administrator of a small settlement in the border area. Since the militia system was formed, settlements have appeared here. In the past, everyone settled down on the grassland at random. There was no concept of hometown. They brought their own sheep and yurts and regarded anywhere as their home.

Since the militia system was introduced, the Han people have helped them improve their previous living environment and helped them build fixed houses in some places with better water and soil.

It’s true that the houses built by the Han people are much warmer to live in than yurts, so these small gathering areas have also appeared.

According to the Han people who came from the south, everyone can help each other when they live together, and it is also lively at dinner time. Only when the grass and water in this area are eaten less by cattle and sheep can they go to other places and stay in this area. Let the grass grow slowly during this period of time, and then drive the sheep and cattle back when they are all grown up.

Although grazing is still possible in this era and the grasslands are not overloaded, but as a person of the 21st century, Mao Yuanshan still knows how badly the Mongolian steppes were damaged at that time. It is always good to prepare for a rainy day. Now is the best time here, as long as it can form a tradition for these herders.

They continued this tradition afterwards.

This way, no fundamental damage will be caused to the grassland.

According to the regulations given to them by the Han people, Meng Dan and his men had to stay in this small gathering area for more than three months before moving to other places. The grass and water around here were really good, and there were two Han outposts within a radius of ten miles, so they didn't have to worry about the Soviets coming to cause trouble.

Although we followed the three Mongolian princes to surrender to the Soviets in the past, the Soviets did not treat us as human beings. Whenever they wanted to eat sheep, they would just run to our flock and slaughter them without even consulting us. They even dared to attack pregnant ewes. They were really a group of hateful robbers.

When the prince took us to join the Soviet Union, he said something nice, like we were a big family with the same clothes and food. But after we really joined, our living standards not only did not improve, but instead declined a lot. They often came to ask for our things without paying, and we were not living as well as before.
