Chapter 50: The Return of the Marines (1)

After receiving Qin Zheng's report, Qingdao's East China ** Executive Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, from the standpoint of East China, it is also necessary to reach a peace agreement with Russia to end the war. The next goal of Bi Jing East China is to concentrate on economic construction and complete the layout of initial industrialization, so as to shorten the gap with foreign countries, so if the war cannot be ended and the hostility with Russia continues, there will even be continuous local wars, which will have a great impact on the economic construction of East China.

In addition, although East China also needs peace, but can not make concessions to Russia, give up the demand for reparations and land cedes, one is to take care of the internal emotions, because in East China, the voice of demanding a tough attitude towards Russia has always existed, and many elders even advocate that all the territories occupied by Russia should be returned, so if East China ** gives up Russia's reparations and land cession, this session of ** members may lose the support of other elders. Second, Russia is not a country that understands what is good and will accept it, and goodwill concessions will be regarded as weak by Russia, and it will inevitably be forced to advance step by inch, so it must be hard to deal with Russia and not give in an inch.

Therefore, although East China also urgently needs peace and a stop to the war, it has no concessions to Russia, and no one can be less than the reparations that should be paid, and not an inch of land can be allowed, and Russia will fight if it does not accept it.

Wang Yunpeng said: "I hope that this time the negotiations can be finally reached, so that we can also worry about it and turn our energy to economic construction." He is the main person in charge of administrative work among the five giants, and knows that the northeast region involves a great deal of energy in East China, and now nearly 70 percent of the troops of the People's Army and the army are gathered in the northeast region, which consumes a lot of manpower and material resources every day, and also makes the development of the northeast region unable to be carried out in an all-round way. Therefore, if an agreement can be negotiated with Russia, East China can indeed save a lot of energy.

Xu Jichao said: "Do you want to send a telegram to Political Commissar Qin, telling him that he will try his best to negotiate this time, so in places that are not too important, it is better to give a step. ”

Xia Bohai shook his head and said: "I don't think there is a need for this, our current situation, Lao Qin is as clear as we are, and he also knows that our bottom line is there, and he will grasp this balance, and this time I think Russia is indeed a little unbearable, so there is a great chance of negotiation, but the final text of the treaty still needs the approval of the Executive Yuan." ”

Xiao Jianjun also said: "Yes, although we also need peace, we must not make more concessions to Russia, because it cannot let Russia have the feeling of 'we are very talkative', this negotiation has been repeated several times, and the big reason is that Russia has always retained the luck that we will make concessions, and we absolutely cannot let Russia have this kind of heart again." ”

Wang Yunpeng said: "Okay, then forget it, let the political commissar Qin take control." However, if the negotiation is completed this time, then the mission of the Northeast Management Committee will be basically completed, should we consider abolishing the Northeast Management Committee now, the Senate still needs to be presided over by Political Commissar Qin, and the new work of other members of the Northeast Management Committee should also be considered. ”

Xiao Jianjun said: "I think it is too early to cancel the Northeast Management Committee immediately, even if this negotiation is successful, there are still the results of the implementation of the negotiations, and in the Mongolian direction, I am afraid there will be military operations, although the scale will not be too large, but a unified command is still needed, and the Northeast Management Committee still needs to exist." ”

Xia Bohai also said: "Yes, I also think that there is no rush to cancel the Northeast Management Committee now, there is nothing important on the side of the Senate this year, and after the negotiation is over, ask Lao Qin's attitude, in addition, the affairs of Mongolia also need to be carefully studied, what kind of policy to adopt, and it must not have a big impact on our economic construction." And Lao Xiao also has to worry a little more, Bi Jing deals with Mongolian affairs, I think the military is still dominant, I see that you have recently taken some time to go to the Northeast to investigate on the spot, understand the actual situation in the local area, and then discuss it with Lao Qin. ”

Xiao Jianjun nodded and said, "I understand, tomorrow the last batch of marines will be withdrawn from Japan, Luo Yue is in this batch, I will arrange all the things of the marines, and then I will go to the northeast." ”

Xia Bohai said: "The Marines are coming back, this is very good, this time they have made a lot of contributions, Japan can be the first to succumb, the Marines play the greatest role, we should be commended." In addition, the formation of the Marine Corps also needs to be improved. ”

This Far East War is the largest war experienced by East China since its establishment, the navy and army have gone to war, although the war is won, but the navy and army have found a lot of problems, Bi Jing People's Army construction and combat thinking, there are many places are from the old time and space, but the objective environment of the old time and space, The conditions are very different from this era, so the army has encountered a lot of problems in actual combat, and some of the ideas of war are based on the advanced weapons brought by the old time and space, but at this time, the weapons of the old time and space are basically exhausted, even if there are still some left, they will gradually withdraw in the future, and the future battles will be based on the weapons made in this era.

Now that the war is over, all branches of the armed forces must also begin to solve these problems and improve the building of various branches of the armed forces, as well as the development and development of weapons.

Xiao Jianjun said: "You don't have to worry about the commendation, it has been arranged a long time ago." However, although the establishment of the Marine Corps needs to be perfected, first of all, it is necessary to determine the positioning of the Marine Corps, and only when the position is set can the issue of the establishment be considered, and if the positioning is not clear, the establishment cannot be perfected. ”

There have always been two opinions on the positioning of the Marine Corps in the Central Military Commission: One is to separate the Marine Corps and become another independent branch of the Marine Corps in addition to the Navy and Army, so that the Marine Corps' characteristics of flexibility, speed, and comprehensive operations can be brought into full play; the other is that it is not appropriate for the Marine Corps to exist as an independent branch of the armed forces at present, because this will inevitably lead to duplication of army building and a virtual waste of resources, so the Marine Corps should remain in the sequence of the Navy and exist as a land force of the Navy.

Xia Bohai thought for a while and said, "This is indeed a problem, if this problem is not solved well, it will affect the construction of the Marine Corps." In this way, Luo Yue is also back, I see that the Military Commission organized a comprehensive discussion on the positioning of the Marine Corps, in addition to the army and navy, Luo Yue was also allowed to participate, he should have the right to speak on the positioning of the Marine Corps, and this time the positioning of the Marine Corps must be completely determined. ”

Xiao Jianjun nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it immediately." ”

At this time, Wang Yunpeng said: "Don't always discuss the military, there are also administrative matters to discuss, you have also read the development plan of Jinzhou, you need the support of our side." ”

Xia Bohai said: "I have already seen it, these are all determined in the Second Five-Year Plan, and Gao Jin did a good job in Jinzhou this time, as soon as he took office, he exterminated the bandit army, and should give full support, and it is best to build Jinzhou into a model for local development in the northeast." However, the specific arrangements will still have to be determined in consultation with other committees, but in short, they must be supported. ”

Wang Yunpeng said: "I have already arranged this, but now there are two problems, in the development plan of Jinzhou, there is a plan to build a power plant, and the construction of the Jinshen line railway is also required. ”

Xia Bohai was a little strange and said: "Is there a problem with this? The power plant was originally part of the Five Small Industrial Plan, and the Jinshen Line Railway is also one of the projects of the Second Five-Year Plan, and these have been determined a long time ago. ”

Wang Yunpeng: "This is indeed a good decision, but there is no corresponding department in the Executive Yuan for electric power and railways." At present, the railway is under the management of the Ministry of Communications under the Communications and Postal Commission, while the electricity is under the management of the Ministry of Energy under the Committee of Industry, Mining and Energy. ”

Xiao Jianjun said: "Isn't this a department in charge? How can you say that there is no corresponding department?"

Xia Bohai clearly had Wang Yunpeng's meaning, and said: "What President Wang means is that the administrative level of the management bodies of electric power and railways is too low, but a ministerial-level department should be set up under the committee to directly manage it. ”

Wang Yunpeng nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, that's what I mean, electricity and railways are the main symbols of a modern country, and they are also an important part of our development of industrialization, at least they should be managed by administrative units at the ministerial level, so I think the Ministry of Railways and the Ministry of Electric Power should be established." ”

Xu Jichao said: "But when we crossed over, didn't the state abolish the Ministry of Railways and the Ministry of Electric Power Industry? Instead, the railways and electric power were marketized and enterprised, and the China Railway Corporation and the State Power Company were established, and the State Railway Administration was set up to take charge of the administrative responsibility for railway development planning and policies, and the State Electricity Regulatory Commission was established to exercise the function of electricity market supervision. It is necessary for us to set up the Ministry of Railways and the Ministry of Electric Power, it is better to directly become a railway company and an electric power company to carry out enterprise management, and the first department is only responsible for development planning and market supervision. ”

Wang Yunpeng shook his head and said: "We can't copy the experience of the old time and space, because the objective conditions of the two eras are different, and the situation of the current era is closer to the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China in the old time and space, and it is not appropriate to immediately push the railway and electric power directly to the market, or should the Ministry of Railways and the Ministry of Electric Power be established, and it is better to manage the railway and electric power with administrative plans, and when the conditions are ripe, it is not too late to reorganize and put them on the market." ”

Xia Bohai thought for a while and said: "This decision needs to be carefully evaluated, and tomorrow there will be a meeting of the Executive Yuan, and everyone will discuss it together and make a decision." ”
