Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 13 Nationality and Democracy

Wang Zongxi's proposal won the approval of Wufeng, but Su Qin expressed his firm opposition to this compromise plan. He believes that the two ethnic regions of the Western Regions and the Tengger region must be treated equally, and they cannot be given special powers in the early stage. This will damage the fairness of the new regime and the ethnic equality policy that Li Wufeng has always advocated. But these two areas belong to ethnic areas. If they have a kind of idea that they think they are free from the special status of the governing regime at the beginning, this will bring considerable harm to future management. Instead of adopting this plan , it is better to adopt Xiao Tang's plan, although there is an extra level of government, but at least their level of government is equal on the surface, without any particularity.

Su Qin believes that once this kind of national specificity makes these local government officials and local people who were originally included in the Northwest management to develop a separatist tendency, it may even gradually develop into separatism in the future. The centralization of power in China is extremely unfavorable, and these factors must be taken into account when the regime is first established, so as to prevent the lapse of time and cut off these signs from the root. Although there may be some difficulties in government work due to some special historical reasons and ethnic customs in the early stage, once they get used to it, they will get on the right track and gradually integrate, making them an equal member of the whole big family.

Su Qin also pointed out that he had discussed ethnic issues with Mo Lun and Mi Feng, mainly focusing on law enforcement norms and the application of legal policies in special areas. A military judge and director of the Ombudsman with rich experience in law enforcement has expressed his views. But one point of understanding is the same, that is, under the same regime, no matter whether he is in the wilderness or a prosperous city, whether he is a gentry of the Tang family or an ordinary citizen of a minority, whether he is a military general or a nobleman with meritorious service, Everyone must be treated equally before the implementation of the law, and they cannot use their identities or the special geographical location to give benevolence outside the law. Especially in ethnic areas, it is necessary to strengthen publicity and education in this regard, and absolutely cannot use their ethnic characteristics as an excuse to Obstructing the implementation of laws and policies should be severely punished and punished for such signs, and adultery must not be condoned. Of course, depending on the situation in ethnic minority areas, the government can provide some support and support in education and health, so that they can integrate into the orthodox society as soon as possible, but in terms of laws and regimes, they should be resolutely consistent from the beginning.

Su Qin's views won Xiaotang's support to a certain extent. He also disagreed with separating the ethnic areas from the formerly controlled areas of the empire and using different governments to implement different policies and laws, although he did not quite support Su Qin's views. In his view, the comprehensive integration plan to abolish the county-level government, because several regions are too large, if each prefecture-level administrative region is directly under one government, it will cause a backlog of government affairs, which is not conducive to government management.

Su Qin's opinion forced Wufeng to take seriously the ethnic affairs related to the Western Regions and Tengger. Even Wang Zongxi felt that his views on this aspect might not be prudent enough. Although from the current point of view, the situation in the countries of the Western Regions has calmed down under Cui Wenxiu's strong suppression, and the daily work of the Western Regions Administration is gradually on the right track, the economy is also starting to improve, and the Tengger Grassland is even more prosperous. But this does not mean that there are no problems in these two places. As these ethnic groups with unique national consciousness, whether it is the Mote people or the Bega people, they have not yet been fundamentally integrated into the Northwest. In addition to some measures currently taken, more attention and attention is needed to ensure and promote these ethnic groups to maintain a certain ethnic customs and habits, and to gradually integrate with the civilization of the Tang ethnic group in terms of ideological and cultural awareness. fusion. Only in this way can I ensure that I have a stable rear when I stride into the Central Plains, and I can ensure that I have a solid bridgehead and springboard when I set my sights on the Eastern Continent in the more distant future.

Su Qin's words shook Wufeng, who was inclined to Wang Zongxi's opinion, again, especially since it involved his future plans. As Su Qin said, the area around the northwest is originally a multi-ethnic mixed area, and perhaps more and more ethnic minorities will be brought under his own management in the future. Claiming the so-called autonomy or semi-autonomy on the pretext of the particularity of one's own nation will inevitably cause a chain reaction. Not only will the nations that submit to them in the future demand the same treatment, but even the nations that submitted to them earlier, such as the Gaoyue people and the Jules, will have other Thoughts, it may even develop to the extent that even a large group of original immigrants in the six northwestern prefectures, such as Indians, may make some unreasonable demands, so we must treat them with caution. This is not just a matter of the nature of the local government established, but involves Wufeng's entire ethnic policy. A little carelessness will shake the foundation of its own rule.

However, if the autonomy policy of the entire Western Region and Tengger region is canceled in a hurry, it is very likely to cause turmoil in these two regions, especially the situation in the Western Region countries. How to balance the contradiction between the two seems to need further discussion.

Seeing that the coach has not expressed any opinions on the opinions of the three of them, the three of them also feel that this matter is tricky, but although they have different opinions on how to deal with ethnic places, there is one point that everyone has reached a consensus , that is, it is impossible to continue the management of the original area by the Northwest Administrative Office and set up a separate management agency in Kansai. It is necessary to form an administrative agency that can govern the entire jurisdiction. The government agencies at the county level, or adopt Wang Zongxi's idea, Wufeng is still unable to make a decision.

Ling Tianfang arrived and immediately joined the discussion, making the scope not only limited to government affairs but also extended to military affairs. Apart from the issue of government structure, the five people also discussed the issue of the candidates for government agencies in the six Kansai prefectures and the Kansai region. A series of thorny issues such as economic policy issues and the formation of the Kansai region's garrison were discussed. From tea to coffee, and from coffee to tea, three consecutive meals were hastily used in the conference room. The five people's discussions It's still not over, and there are still too many topics waiting to be discussed, but Wufeng doesn't have the energy to deal with these. As long as a few major directions are determined, the rest should be implemented and organized by the four of them up.

After a day and a night of discussion, the idea of ​​establishing the Xijiang Protectorate was creatively brought out. In the entire Wufeng-controlled area, the Tanghe Empire West Frontier Protectorate was established, and the set of institutions such as the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion and the Governor's Mansion were abolished. Under the Protectorate Mansion, there were three major sequences: the Government Affairs Department, the Legal Affairs Department, and the Military Affairs Department, as well as the General Intelligence Bureau. and the General Security Bureau are separate agencies. Although the General Intelligence Bureau is not included in the sequence of the Government Affairs Department and is directly under the direct management of the Du Hu, it is obliged to report important intelligence information related to government and military affairs to the Government Affairs Department and the Military Affairs Department. Limited to the directors of the two departments and the executive deputy directors, they are not allowed to keep files in the two departments. The General Security Bureau is directly responsible to the Du Hu himself.

The powers under the jurisdiction of the Government Affairs Administration and the original Jiedu Envoy have not changed much. The Administration Department, Finance Department, Economic Development Department, Construction Department, Agricultural Affairs Department, Interior Department, Culture and Health Department, and Combat Readiness Department, while the Legal Affairs Department has Jurisdiction over the Tribunal and the Supervision Department, the Military Affairs Administration is a virtual institution, there is no permanent institution, and it consists of the Military Affairs Joint Conference, the General Staff Department, and the Military Law Department. The Military Affairs Joint Conference is a non-permanent institution, and the candidates remain unchanged. It is responsible for the daily training and planning of the army, and the military command after being authorized by the guard in wartime~IndoMTL.com~The Military Law Department is responsible for dealing with military discipline issues.

At the same time, an advisory council was also set up under the Duhufu. The council is temporarily composed of 72 representatives, and the 24 separate administrative regions (Northwest six prefectures, Kansai six prefectures) in the Xijiang Duhufu control area , the five countries of the Western Regions, the second prefecture of Northern Luzon, the second prefecture of Beiyuan, the first prefecture of Heshuo, the Mote Autonomous Territory, and the Tubu Autonomous Territory) each administrative region can elect three public opinion representatives, and the public opinion representatives cannot be government officials. There is a quota for landowners, landowners and ordinary people. Representatives are elected every two years and can be re-elected. The Advisory Council holds a meeting every six months to discuss important government affairs, important events, and development directions for the next six months within the jurisdiction of the Duhufu, and can form a proposal for submission to government affairs after half of the general affairs or two-thirds of the representatives of major affairs have passed Department of Justice and Legal Affairs, but military affairs are not on the table. In the area occupied by the Tengrilobes, the Qiuer Tribe, the Boyin Barbarians, and the Indian Punjab, which have a special relationship with Western Xinjiang, one or two representatives can be elected as observers to attend the meetings of the Advisory Council, but there are no discussions, The right to propose motions and second votes.

After the bill formed by the Congress of the Advisory Council is submitted to the Government Affairs Department and the Legal Affairs Department, the Government Affairs Department and the Legal Affairs Department should send representatives to the conference to explain it at the next congress, but the motion does not have legal effect and mandatory binding force. If the Department of Justice and the Legal Affairs Department believe that the bill submitted by the Senate involves national security and confidential content, they may not answer and explain it after obtaining the consent of the Guardian.

Su Qin also suggested that the substantive management of the Luobei-occupied area and the establishment of the Qiuer Autonomous Dominion be promoted as soon as possible, so that the Tengger Grassland can be more firmly controlled by the Xijiang Protectorate, which also won Ling Tian's liberation. And Wang Zongxi's support.
