Chapter 388: Base 2.7

  Chapter 388 Base 2.7

  "Brother Shuanzhu, Lord Earl takes you very seriously. The so-called swordsman comes from sharpening. This advanced study is a good opportunity for improvement and training. You must cherish it!"

   "Brother Peng is from the bottom of my heart, but I feel that the pressure is really great. I can't say that I can only kill my life. I can't believe that I can't get the two awards."

   "Double class?"

   "Yes, my goal is only double-class. If I can't get it, it will be a total failure."

"That's it..." Lei Xiaopeng's eyes were filled with a smile, and after the glass in his hand was full, he raised it sincerely and said; "Then I also want to reciprocate you a glass, let me encourage you, remember this period of further study There are a total of 117 people in the class, and only two of our teachers got double honors, one is me, the other is our deputy commander Mo Rufeng, hehehe...you know that Mo Rufeng is a great talent."

   "Ah...Does the deputy commander also participate?" Li Shuanzhu's mouth opened in surprise, enough to fit a duck egg.

Lei Xiaopeng nodded and replied; "Of course, the so-called intermediate and high-level military training courses are of course attended by division-level officers. They can be considered senior officers. Our regiments and battalions can only be regarded as middle-level officers at most. Our division Fritz will also participate in the training. Their senior officers are mainly required to meet the standards in the assessment of political discipline. This is the charter set by the Lord Earl himself, and no one dares to violate it."

   "It's miserable... miserable..."

   Hearing that his Shangguan would also participate in training, and he might also be assigned to a class, Li Shuanzhu immediately felt the pressure, and he didn't know what it was like to drink the wine in his stomach.

  Several people joked and laughed, and the topic again talked about the task that Lei Xiaopeng was responsible for.

  The personnel selected for the formation of the expeditionary task force are all in the Shangri-La Division, which also includes the Longmen Guard Area. Only Li Fushou’s subordinates will need to mobilize no less than 350 people. Of course, the relevant information must be notified.

As for the mission destination is confidential, Lei Xiaopeng will not say that everyone will not ask, but there are many guesses in his mind. Europe and the Americas are definitely not allowed. If tens of thousands of miles away, there are only Africa and West Asia, and Africa Is more likely.

"Brother Xiaopeng, you have been here for the fewest years, according to Lord Earl’s words, you will not know when you will see each other again. This glass of wine will be a great journey for you. I hope that my brother will go on a long journey here. It's not good for the past." Li Shuanzhu, Duan Qirui and several other officers all stood up, holding the wine glasses with both hands.

   "Let you auspicious words, sincerely so."

Lei Xiaopeng raised his wine glass and stood up with a serious look on his eyebrows; "Thank you all, soldiers take obedience to orders as their bounden duty. I am more yearning for the deserted sea of ​​expedition for thousands of miles, the so-called high-ranking officials. Houlu will be taken immediately. Aspiring men have to embark on a long journey if they want to make contributions."

   "Well said, brother, I feel blood boiling."

"Haha...If you have excellent officers' seedlings that you can train, you can recommend them to me to take them away and put them in the deep mountains of your Longmen Security Area. Li Yong Li and Lieutenant Mo Zhenxiong.

   "Brother Xiaopeng, what is wasteful?" Li Shuanzhu asked dissatisfiedly.

Lei Xiaopeng replied plausibly; "Isn't it? What kind of soldier is a soldier who doesn't fight? I don't think there will be a major battle in the Longmen Guard Area in 10 years and 8 years. As the general reserve team, even Borneo or Australia. The two places need to draw troops, mainly from the Jayapura Division, or from the Third Regiment of Moresby. Your Lord of the Longmen Guard Zone looks very tight, and basically won't move."

   "Oh, this is also true."

Li Shuanzhu had to admit that what he said is reasonable. Soldiers can only gain credit if they fight in battle. Otherwise, the lieutenant will only have three years of stable promotion to the first grade, and such promotion to the school-level officer will not count. normal.

  Everyone all picked up their wine glasses and drank them, then sat down again.

  Lieutenant Li Yong and Lieutenant Mo Zhenxiong were in a complicated mood. They kept their minds in their minds without saying a word. It is of course very good for the guards to receive high treatment, but there are few opportunities for meritorious service!

  The two of them performed well in the serial assassinations on Central Street. In addition to the new round of expansion of the Guards, they were promoted to lieutenant. This kind of opportunity is hard to find. As a guard officer, I still hope to be safe.

  Looking at the high spirits of classmate Li Shuanzhu now, it is false to say that he is not envious.

  Think about it

  Lieutenant Mo Zhenxiong glanced at Lieutenant Li Yong who was sitting next to him with a probing look. The two looked at each other, and they all understood what the other meant.

   "Sir, if you don't dislike it, our brothers want to follow you." Mo Zhenxiong and Li Yong stood up at the same time, clasping fists in their hands.

   "Hahaha... a good man is in the four directions, it is not worth my tongue today." Lei Xiaopeng was overjoyed when he recruited two outstanding officers.

  As long as there is the intention of the officer himself to move, and the expeditionary task force takes the initiative to ask people, there is no reason for the Guards to let others go.

  As the young eagle school graduates step into the society one after another, the bottleneck of the talent shortage has long since disappeared. These passionate young people with knowledge, ideals and aspirations have joined the military camp or local departments, bringing a different kind of vitality.

  Lei Xiaopeng didn't have the patience to train raw melon eggs, and he didn't want those novices. What he wanted were excellent officers and soldiers who were able to fight as soon as they were experienced, so he felt more confident.

  After all, the expedition overseas is the first time the big girl gets on the sedan chair. Who knows what moths will come out of Africa?

After Lieutenant Li Yong and Lieutenant Mo Zhenxiong were willing to join, Lei Xiaopeng was obviously in a much higher mood, chatting and laughing at the banquet, and chatting with Duan Qirui cordially from time to time. He said that he had a future with me.

  Duan Qirui is a very thoughtful person. He just smiles and doesn't say much. He should eat and drink, and be a quiet bystander, but he just doesn't say anything.

  Li Shuanzhu didn't expect Lei Xiaopeng to be such a bottomless guy. He even digs people in front of him, just feeling uninterested.

  Duan Qirui is a very comfortable little brother who handles matters thoughtfully and meticulously. He is one of the right assistants in the Longmen Security Area. Of course, he does not want to see others dig a corner, so he deliberately diverts the topic;

   "Ahem... Brother Xiaopeng, the military meeting held this time is for the entire army. What is the specific work?"

  "Oh...mainly in terms of recruiting and purging the army, there are also some voluntary decommissioning of veterans who have reached the limit of service, and some related merits exchange and local handover arrangements. This is a routine thing every year, and it is an old rhetoric."

   "That being said, this work is very important for veterans."

"Yes, this year's veterans will be mobilized to settle in Borneo. The conditions are special. The base of meritorious fields can reach 2.7, and many capable veterans will be awarded grass-roots positions to enrich the existing grass-roots townships in Borneo. Together with the graduates who have two or three years of work experience after the new internship, a sound grassroots organization can be established."

"Brother Xiaopeng, I understand. This is an important decision to consolidate the grassroots." Li Shuanzhu nodded and said with some emotion; "Not to mention the veterans, even when I saw such a high base, I was shocked. I think the principal The adults have really invested a lot of money, and there will definitely be many veterans who will choose to settle in Borneo. Really speaking, the development of Shangri-La Island is far less than that of Borneo with a long history and solid foundation. The climate is also very good."

  The so-called merit field base of 2.7 means that a retired soldier records that merits can be allocated to 20 acres of land. Then the base number of resettlement in Queensland, Australia is 1, then after retirement, you can get 20 acres of merit.

  The resettlement base on Shangri-La Island is 1.8, so it is 36 acres of meritorious fields. If you respond to the call for resettlement in Borneo, the base of the meritorious field is 2.7, which is 54 acres, which is more than 325 acres in the metric system. A properly small plantation is definitely not a small amount.

  Speaking of this, we have to mention the issue of policy guidance.

  Through appropriate policy guidance, encouraging some knowledgeable, capable, and war-tested loyal soldiers to settle in places such as Shangri-La Island and Borneo to enrich the grassroots is a good policy for rapid local stabilization.

  Queensland’s policy is basically based on a hard work and a harvest. Officers are rewarded more generously than soldiers, and soldiers are rewarded more generously than immigrants. The various levels are clearly divided.

  The Queensland army is actually a private army of Lord Earl, and what is instilled in the army is the old loyalty thought of feudal lords, nothing new.

  Only veterans who have withstood the test of war can obtain the fertile land cultivated in Borneo, and become the owners of large and small manors, so that they have good economic capabilities and become a grassroots group that firmly supports the Lord Earl.

  Generally speaking

Because of the existence of the meritorious field system, officers at all levels will become owners of large and medium-sized estates and plantations after retiring. Soldiers will become owners of small plantations after retiring. Under the guidance of policies, they will use their accumulated wealth to develop plantations. After many years After that, a stable social structure will be formed.

  As for immigrants, they can only cultivate wasteland, and they pay far higher taxes than merits, and enjoy bank loan interest rates and quotas far lower than those of veterans, and they may develop into self-sufficient wealthy farmers in the future.

  For the Red Fort

  Large tracts of land acquired through war can be quickly developed into fertile land under the guidance of policies, generating a steady stream of taxes, which in turn feeds back urban and rural farmland water conservancy and infrastructure construction, forming a virtuous circle.

  Rather than allowing large tracts of land to continue to be deserted, it cannot bring any benefits.

  According to the provisions of the merit point system;

  Relevant personnel can have a three-year tax exemption period after obtaining the meritorious field, and then tax according to the nine-one tax principle, and can enjoy this preferential tax rate for life until death.

  The Meritorious Field cannot be traded or transferred.

   Descendants who inherit the meritorious field cannot enjoy the September 1 preferential tax rate, but must be taxed in accordance with the 73rd. The meritorious field will be restored to the status of ordinary field, which can be traded and transferred.

  After the three-year tax exemption period, the meritorious field will be taxed according to the actual acres, and the meritorious field that has not been able to meet the tax payment for three consecutive years will be recovered by the government without compensation.

  The above various policies and regulations have blocked the opportunity to try to exploit loopholes. Both officers and soldiers must develop the field as soon as possible after they have obtained the merit field, so as to avoid desolation.

  Because the meritorious field is not calculated according to whether you are planting or not, but the tax will be collected after the three-year tax holiday period. This trick is very powerful.

  Because Queensland did not have any meritorious service in the past, and there was no comparable field system, the promotion and implementation of the meritorious field system was very smooth, and there was basically no objection to it.

Because the Meritorious Field is awarded to the people who loyally support the Lord Earl, anyone who has grievances, dissatisfaction, attacking the society, or maliciously slandering the leader shall be severely dealt with, including but not limited to the confiscation of Meritorious Fields, honors that have been awarded, etc. Wait.

This is specifically aimed at people who pick up a bowl to eat meat and put down a bowl to scold their mothers, to see that others have more money than their own, and their income is more generous, and they are jealous and eager to complain. Once they are confirmed by more than three people, they can Crap…
