In the 1960s, a woman dressed as a man and a general came to give birth to a baby

The team leader was happy about the news about grain. But when he heard that there was an urgent matter in the town and he was asked to attend a meeting, he was stunned for a moment and thought: What kind of meeting is this on the third day of the first lunar month?

Seeing that the team leader was going to attend a meeting in the town, Zhang Yu did not stay any longer. He arranged a time for the team leader to go and then said goodbye.

After Zhang Yu left, the team leader drove the village's ox cart and hurried towards the town.

On the way, he also met Captain Wang and Captain Ma from the neighboring village. After they met, they exchanged information, but no one was clear about the result. They all guessed whether there was any news about relief food.

At this time, the captain was thinking about what Zhang Yu said about the food, so Captain Zhang asked: "If there is news about the relief food, will you still buy food? I will tell them about this."

Captains Ma and Wang thought for a moment, and Captain Ma said, "Yes, first of all, we don't know if it is relief food. Even if it is, I don't think it will be much. We are not afraid of having too much food." Captain Ma also echoed.

Upon hearing that they wanted more, Captain Zhang told them the news of the food they wanted, told them the time of the transaction, and asked them to prepare the money.

When the two heard that there was news about food, smiles appeared on their faces which had been gloomy all day.

When the three of them arrived at the town government, there were already many captains waiting in the town government compound. Captain Zhang looked at the number of people and thought that all the captains from the town and villages had arrived. Seeing everyone's sad faces, he felt that the matter of relief food was a bit mysterious.

At this time, a town government official with a bitter face came over and said to everyone impatiently: "Captains, please follow me to the meeting room. The secretary is waiting." After that, he turned around and walked into the office building without caring whether anyone heard him or not.

At this time, a team leader came up to the officer and asked, "Comrade, why did you call us here today? Tell us so we know what's going on."

Some people think that relief grain has not arrived yet, but most people still think that when they came to the town for meetings in the past, the secretary would ask them to report more production and pay more public grain.

As a result, the clerk glanced at him and said impatiently: "The secretary didn't say it, and I don't know. The secretary will tell you when the meeting starts later. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Seeing that this person had hit a snag, everyone stopped asking questions.

When everyone arrived at the meeting room, there was Secretary Zhang from Gongshan Town and a public security comrade.

The clerk who brought them here respectfully said to Secretary Zhang that everyone was here, and then left.

Secretary Zhang saw that everyone was present and said, "Everyone please be quiet. I called you all here today because I have something very important to tell you. Before that, let me introduce you to the person next to me. You may also know him. He is Director Cui of our police station."

Then, Secretary Zhang said to Director Cui: "Xiao Cui, the leaders of the production teams in each village are already here. You can tell everyone about it."

After seeing what Secretary Zhang had said, Director Cui responded, "Okay, Secretary. Dear captains, we are old acquaintances. Today, I want to talk about something very important. I don't know if you have heard that many people have come to the town to escape famine in the past few months. We originally thought that they would leave after a while, but our police station has received reports since the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year. Some of the refugees have robbed some families in the town. So far, we have received 24 reports, and 36 leaders have been caught by the residents themselves or by us."

As soon as Director Cui finished speaking, the captains present began to discuss. Some said, "We have nothing in our village. If rats come, we will have to move. These people will definitely not go." Others said, "We have hundreds of strong laborers in our village. If they dare to come, we will let them come and never return. We can also leave something for them. Come on..."

Secretary Zhang listened to the noisy discussion and said, "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet." Then he said to Director Cui, "You continue."

Director Cui added: "If refugees gather together for a long time without land, food or housing, they may be instigated by extreme people inside and commit irrational acts such as robbery. I think this should be taken seriously. Today, after I reported to Secretary Zhang, Secretary Zhang instructed that these refugees be dispersed and distributed to various villages so that they cannot form a large scale, thereby reducing the occurrence of such robberies."

The brigade secretaries present were all worried about the lack of food in the village. When they heard that the refugees were going to be assigned to their village, they didn't care about anything else and started crying one after another.

A captain sitting on Secretary Zhang's right said bluntly: "Secretary Zhang, it's not that we are trying to refuse, we really have no food. You said that when they arrived in our village, there was no food. What should we do if they incite our villagers to make trouble?

Hearing this, Secretary Zhang said confidently: "I have already thought about this issue. Everyone, you don't have to worry about it. Director Cui has already counted the people who have fled here to escape famine. The proportion of middle-aged men is the smallest. When we distribute them, we will not only distribute them based on families, but also based on the number of men. In fact, each village will only distribute about 20 people, and each village will only distribute three or four middle-aged men. How come you can't suppress these three or four people in one village? In this way, I will delegate power to you. You can deal with them at your discretion without hurting them."

The team leaders present saw that Secretary Zhang was determined to assign these refugees to their village. Didn’t they see that even the ratio and number of people to be assigned had been determined?

Secretary Zhang looked at the captains present and continued, "I called you here today not only to talk about this matter, but also to take the people back with you when you leave later."

Although they were mentally prepared, they still felt as if their father had died when they heard that they had to lead the people back. All the team leaders present sighed and said, how are they going to explain this to the villagers when they go back...

Then Secretary Zhang waved his hand, and the officer who had led the team leaders into the meeting room came in with a red box and placed it next to Secretary Zhang.

Secretary Zhang patted the box and said, "Everyone, let's get started. For the sake of fairness, I have already allocated the number of people. They are all written on slips of paper. Everyone draws lots to decide. OK, whoever you draw is what? Then go to Officer Sun to count the people so that it will be convenient for the police station to register them. Of course, if you voluntarily want to swap, then you can do it before registration. Now, let's start."

When the captains heard this, they said, "Just arrest him, it's already a fact."

After drawing the lots, some people are not satisfied with the spots they got. However, if you are not satisfied, no one will want it, so you can only consider yourself unlucky.

After everyone had registered, Secretary Zhang said, "Xiao Cui, do you want to say a few more words?"

Director Cui quickly replied: "Secretary, no need. Look, I still have 30 people waiting for me to deal with. I'll go first?"

Secretary Zhang waved his hand and let Director Cui go. Then he said, "Ladies and gentlemen, today's meeting ends here. Let's adjourn it."

It was still the holiday, and after the meeting, Secretary Zhang was going to go home. But as soon as he stood up, he was stopped by the team leader present.

At this time, the captain sitting on his left came over. He was the captain of the largest village in Gongshan Town. He said, "Secretary Zhang, this person has been given to us. When will the relief food come? Our village is now completely without food. The villagers are still hungry during the New Year. If you don't solve this problem, please remove me."

At this time, other team leaders also came over and said that they had no food left in their village, so they should withdraw as well.

Secretary Zhang knows that everyone is short of food, so he has been applying for relief grain from higher authorities. However, the situation is similar across the country now, and if higher authorities don't allocate funds, what can he give to everyone?

But seeing everyone like this, he comforted them, "Everyone, everyone, I also hope that everyone can have relief food, but it is not distributed from above, and I can't get it here. I have applied to the higher-ups many times." Seeing that everyone was in a very bad mood, Secretary Zhang also knew that they had reached their limit, so he sighed and said, "How about this, we still have some reserve grain in our town, so I will ask the comrades at the grain station to allocate 300 kilograms to each village. This is the best effort the town can make." As he said that, he sent someone to call the director of the grain station.

As a result, the person who came came back soon with a panicked look on his face, saying that the director of the grain bureau was in hospital and his condition was quite serious.
