Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 10 Governance
"But Your Highness, have you ever thought that the Japanese are ambitious, and cooperating with them is undoubtedly seeking skin from a tiger, which will bring infinite troubles to us and the entire empire." The shocked man replied in a low voice after a long while.
"Father and mother get married, everyone cares about everyone. Now that my elder brother is advancing steadily, the Milanese may not be our only backer. If we are sold, we will have to help count the money. I still don't know, since the eldest brother wants to kill me, and the rabbit wants to bite when he is in a hurry, since he is unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous." Situ Yuan showed a murderous look between his teeth, and his face was distorted.
"Your Highness, the Japanese are not weak now, especially after the Liyuan Mountains and Rivers integrated the various tribes of the Japanese and got the support of the Xia people. Zheng." Swallowing a mouthful of saliva with some difficulty, the capable man said again: "Now the Liuqiu Islands, Kamchatka Island and Baodao have all fallen into the hands of the Japanese, especially Kamchatka Island and Baodao. Tigers look at the hinterland of our empire, once they gain a foothold in the two places, they will definitely pose a great threat to the entire empire."
"Chuanyue, needless to say, as a citizen of the Tang clan, as a member of the royal family, do you really think that I can't see the ferocity and danger of the Japanese? It's just that we have been forced to this point, who would Can you help us? In the eyes of some people, cooperating with the Japanese may be like inviting wolves into the house, but I was thinking that this "room" no longer belongs to me, and I still care so much about it? Besides, the disaster is moving north, and it is my elder brother who should have a headache. If the Japanese really want to fight against Big Brother, we will have a chance, and there will be another glimmer of hope for the recovery of Jiangnan, and only then will the Milanese be interested in us again!" Situ Yuan said fiercely.
It must be said that Situ Yuan's view of the situation should be very accurate. Now he is like a gambler who has lost his eyes. No matter what he has in his hand, he will gamble him. Maybe there is still a chance of gambling, but he can't care much about the possible future troubles at this time.
Seeing that the other party was still indecisive and worried, Situ Yuan sighed slightly and said, "Chuan Yue, it's not that I want to take this risk, but do you have any choice? We are like people who are about to drown and die. The Japanese people are just a straw, and they can grab whatever they want. As for your worries, I have considered it. Although the Japanese people are fierce, just think about how many people they can have? At best, there are only a few million people, and how much land does it occupy? A few islands. Even if they can gain a temporary advantage now, they are waiting for the overall situation of the empire to be settled. It's time for the Japanese to be unlucky, no one will tolerate the Japanese bullying, but there is no time to take care of them now."
Situ Yuan's words were heard in the man's ears, and his eyes flashed, "I'm afraid that by that time, even if we can really send these plague gods away, we will have to pay a very high price. I wonder if Your Highness has thought about this." No?"
"Chuanyue, if I don't even have the qualifications to send these plague gods away in the future, how can I manage so much? Now I can't care so much." A trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and he glanced at the other party coldly With a glance, Situ Yuan said in a deep voice: "You have to remember, winners and losers, if I'm finished, it doesn't matter if I have more infamy and crimes. If I succeed, history will be written by me. This truth is passed on." Does Yue not understand?"
There was silence in the cabin. Although the stalwart man disagreed with his lord's thoughts, he was powerless to change it. His lord was already putting all his eggs in one basket. As long as it was beneficial for him to cooperate with anyone, he would accept it without hesitation.
"Then what is your highness going to do now?"
"Don't worry, Liyuan Shanchuan is a smart man. I think his emissary may already be on his way. He must have spent a lot of money to launch such a large-scale war continuously. Even if he is prepared, difficulties will soon arise. , what we need to do now is to firmly control the port of Quanzhou, control this group of shipping merchants, let these merchants have to obey our orders, and choke the throat of the Japanese. On the other hand, Chuanyue, you have to worry more, Yuhang The governments of Songjiang, Songjiang, and Weiyang will continue to keep in touch with our people. In addition, the Donghai side should also strengthen contact. Once the eldest brother and the Japanese have a full-scale relationship with the Japanese, it will inevitably lead to mutual blockade, such as Dengzhou, Jinling, and Yuhang. The activities are all carried out by sea, if the sea is banned, hehe, I am afraid that the elder brother will not be comfortable ruling these places, right?" Situ Yuan comfortably put his feet on the jade round drum seat in front of him, and admired it with great interest. On a large ancient porcelain vase fixed with brackets in the corner, there are pictures of beauties in the four seasons.
"I understand, but Your Highness and the Japanese may also need to pay attention to speed and secrecy, otherwise, if it is leaked out, I'm afraid we will be quite passive." He hesitated to speak, and after a short answer, Finally, he sighed secretly, bowed and saluted, and left sadly.
Seeing the disappearing back of the other party, Situ Yuan showed a complex look on his face. After hesitating for a while, he finally gritted his teeth and clapped his hands to attract a thin man. After whispering a few words, the thin man took orders and left.
Frowning, Wufeng sighed while browsing through the mountains of information on the desk. The reform of government affairs has been pushed forward in an all-round way. After the candidates for the governors of the seven counties were publicly appointed for the entire western Xinjiang, it did not cause much disturbance. The early public opinion orientation has laid a good foundation for administrative and regional reforms. The most important candidate for the governor of Kansai is selected by the Fang Chengsong, who is also quite prominent in the imperial political circles, has not only won unanimous praise from the eight prefectures in Kansai, but even the public opinion from far away in the imperial capital has also given a good evaluation, making Wufeng quite proud of his magical pen .
Bo Jinchen's appointment as a senior staff officer of the Military Affairs Department also gave Wufeng a sigh of relief. Although the conversation with Bo Jinchen seemed very dull, Wufeng was still very satisfied, because he knew that since a person like Bo Jinchen was at ease If you stay, then there is no doubt about it. After all, people like him have put life and death aside. Threats and temptations are meaningless to him. The stage for talents is now, and the only one who can give him this opportunity in the current empire is probably himself.
The head of the Fifth Army chose Kamapov in the end. Long himself served as the deputy head of the First Army, and Sha Lang was transferred to be the deputy head of the Third Army. Under some special circumstances, Xin and Cui Wenxiu replaced the two as the head of the first and third western frontier armies. The Guards of the Western Regions was cancelled, and two infantry and cavalry mixed corps were formed following the example of the nomadic cavalry, and they were stationed in Hanzhong.
After completing the reform of the military system, the army also began to change defenses on a large scale. With the cooperation of the two ranger regiments in Wulanji, the Second Army took over the defense of the entire Central Mainland. The Fourth Army also fully took over the defense of the three counties of Sanjiang, Tiannan, and Myanmar, while the Third Army took over the defense of Beiyuan and Heshuo with the cooperation of a ranger regiment, while the Fifth Army joined the two mixed corps (Western Region Adapted from the Guards) stationed in Kansai, on the one hand, it assumed the defense of Kansai, and on the other hand, it also shouldered the important task of supporting the Sanjiang Fourth Army. As for the First Army and several other Ranger regiments, they naturally became the general reserve team. Its resident also changes at any time, in case of accidents.
The construction plan of the navy has finally surfaced. Both Wufeng and Ling Tianfang agree that the construction of the navy must be strengthened, and it should be quite forward-looking, so as to adapt to the future development direction of the war~IndoMTL .com~ In view of the fact that there are not many areas suitable for the development of naval forces in Xijiang at this time, Kansai was selected as the base for naval construction. Hanzhong, Jincheng, and Lujiang became the three camps of the Western Xinjiang Navy. The system follows the example of the Imperial Inland River Fleet. Each battalion is based on the size of a squadron. It has five medium-sized ships, eighteen small patrol ships, and several small boats. The establishment is 3,000 people.
After completing this series of research discussions and decisions and putting them into practice, Wufeng was finally able to take a breath and relax his nerves. The endless meetings, discussions, and conversations for ten days in a row made Wufeng physically and mentally exhausted. Unbearable, but he also knows that this is a strategic plan that will determine the development of Xijiang for a long time to come, and it cannot be ignored at all. From politics, economy, diplomacy to military combat readiness, all aspects of this are the condensed efforts of nearly 30 million people in Xijiang. The gaze is as heavy as a thousand averages.
There was also a protracted and intense debate on the choice of the residence of the Xijiang Metropolitan Protectorate and Qin Wangfu. Judging from the long-term strategic position and Wufeng's emotional tendency, Qingyang is a well-deserved first choice, but judging from its own development direction in the future and Kansai's strategic position in the entire Western Xinjiang, Hanzhong is a matter of course. This question made Wufeng and all the ministers under his command a little unsure about paying attention to it for a while. And as soon as the news got out, it immediately attracted everyone's attention. The newspapers and media in the two places shouted for their own county with great fanfare. Attention from all walks of life, gentry nobles, elders, tribal leaders, immigrant leaders, wealthy businessmen, scholars and talented people, all expressed their opinions in support of their objects of approval, causing countless debates, so that Wufeng and a group of administrative officials They dare not make decisions lightly.
