Chapter Eighty-Four: A Rare Leisure
After finishing the "big move", Governor Zhang Dadu officially started his journey to comfort the army as if he was fine.
In fact, this thing's heart is pumping rapidly, and the blood in the whole body is about to boil!
He doesn't know whether his "big move" is good or bad, and he doesn't know whether Tarim Lake is bringing happiness to the land of China! Or did it bring disaster? Everything is unpredictable! ~~~
This makes Zhang Dadudu, who wants to control everything within his control, very uncomfortable! Ever since he traveled to this plane, he had never suffered like this.
I didn't care before, it's just that what he did didn't affect the overall situation. Even if he dies again, it will not affect the course of history.
And now it's different, if Tarim Lake brings to the land of China not a bumper harvest of fish and rice, but a geological disaster and flood disaster! Then he, Second Master Zhang, is not as simple as a sinner through the ages.
How could this not make him tremble and live like a year?
But the second master is worried that these changes in the environment and climate cannot be manifested in the short term. Everything is subject to the verification of time~~~
"Report to the Overseers! Except for the personnel on duty, the whole group is assembled! ”
"Take a break! Let the fighters disband back. Who made you work so hard? Play the piano around! ”
Governor Zhang Dadu has a black line on his face, how can there be formalism in his own troops?
"Yes! ~~~”
The regimental commander who slapped the buttocks of the Metropolitan Governor on the ass hurriedly disbanded the team and resumed daily training. Somewhat embarrassed, he followed behind the Governor and walked around the camp.
Governor Zhang Dadu inspected the 3rd Regiment of the 19th Division stationed in the [Hongjerapudaban] area on this day. The regiment was stationed in close proximity to the Kashmir region of later generations, belonging to the Kunlun Mountains Plateau, and the environment was very difficult.
These eighteen or nineteen child soldiers have been here for more than a year, and there is not a single deserter! This made Governor Zhang very pleased.
Therefore, this time I specially arranged to visit this army at the last stop, just to personally survey the geographical environment here and see if I can do anything for the soldiers.
Fortunately, after drinking the "ginger syrup", the fighters adapted to the environment very quickly, and there was no excessive altitude sickness.
The construction of the barracks was also done at the request of the Grand Governor, and all of them were thickened insulation walls. The room is even heated, and the boiler room of the regiment headquarters is uniformly heated.
In this era, this is a very luxurious army barracks! Zhang Erye was accompanied by someone to patrol between the various barracks, as if he had returned to the army in his previous life~~~ chatting with these young soldiers cordially.
Unlike in the previous life, the communication with the soldiers in the previous life was all "roaring", and in this life, these young warriors are too simple, and he is embarrassed to reprimand them.
The condolences given by Governor Zhang Dadu to this regiment are also the most special, not only beef, mutton and fish, but also fresh vegetables and fruits. It's a cold winter! Fresh fruit is a rarity.
Even in the summer, there is no green leaf in this area, let alone fresh vegetables and fruits in the winter. The soldiers were all crazy with joy, and after completing their daily training, they gathered around the logistics kitchen to watch the rarities.
When he saw this scene, his heart was heavy.
When the hands of the shopkeeper are used to it, the Governor's Mansion is too crude for the logistics supply of the troops, and it is not good for the soldiers to not pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables in their food nutrition, and this must be rectified.
The second master stopped the regimental commander who was about to step forward and scold the soldiers. Then he said to Zhang San:
"After going back, inform the logistics department that all the troops have a long-term supply of tea, and that each unit has the conditions to grow vegetables on their own initiative, and if they do not have the planting conditions, the logistics department will send vegetables every five days.
It must be done so that the soldiers can eat vegetarian dishes every day. ”
You can't do without vitamin supplements!
The second master, the future generations, fully understands the importance of vitamins to the body of the soldiers!
In the past, it was negligence, and it is not to blame that the officials of the Metropolitan Government did not pay attention to it, but now science has not developed to the point of discovering what vitamins and trace elements human beings need.
People still don't have enough to eat! is also the minutiae of his second master's passing goods.
After Governor Zhang Dadu's round inspection, it was already the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. On the way back to Ili, Governor Zhang Dadu was pleasantly surprised to find that it had fallen in the southern Xinjiang region of Xinjiang.
Due to the existence of the large desert, the southern Xinjiang region has been a long-term drought with little rain and snow in previous years, and this kind of goose feather snow is even rarer.
The second master pondered, it seems that the environmental impact of Tarim Lake has begun to bear fruit in the southern Xinjiang near it, and it is a good year for Ruixue! I hope that Xinjiang in 1917 will be a bumper year.
According to the statistics of the Xinjiang Governor's Office, by the end of 1916, 25 million mu of fertile land had been added to Xinjiang, of which 10 million mu were reserved cotton fields protected by the Xinjiang Governor's Office.
If you don't protect it, you can't do it! This is different from later generations, the common people in the Republic of China period longed to grow food on every cent of their land.
From ancient times to the present, when have the Chinese people eaten with their bellies open? There is no historical period, there is no dynasty of the common people, can rest assured to live with an open belly.
I'm hungry! How can you not grow food when you have land at this time?
Look at it! If it weren't for the cotton field retention plan enforced by Governor Zhang Dadu, not a single acre of arable land would have been planted with cotton this year.
There is still too little arable land! This year, we have to intensify the efforts to open up wasteland. How can this amount of arable land feed his target population of Governor Zhang?
On the way home, the second master secretly thought to himself, and in the future, the amount of cultivated land in Xinjiang could rank 16th in the country. Now that he has solved the most scarce water source problem in Xinjiang, there will only be more arable land than in later generations!
The second master has never been at home in the New Year, and his little wife An Jiayi has some complaints!
"I won't be reunited with my family during the New Year, do you think that Dadu Governor outside has someone like you?"
"Hehe~~~ You man and I are not the same as them! Look at the other than our Xinjiang Province, where is there such a calm territory outside? ”
The second master touched his nose and said with some self-pride and boasting. In fact, the second goods still have a little guilt in their hearts!
It was the big party in the company during the New Year in the previous life, and the family members also participated together. But there is no such thing as now, when I leave home and see no one in the New Year.
"Master! What do you think you want Xinjiang to become? I see that the children in my family now go to school, and they don't need to be accompanied by bodyguards! Every day after school, flocks of lambs plague the nearby herdsmen. That's great! ~~~”
The little wife looked up at her man with some admiration, she really can't live enough of such a day! These are all brought by this man of his own.
"Ahh A flock that plagues the herdsmen? ”
The second master was a little annoyed, the education of the masses in later generations has penetrated into the depths of his soul, and his own children have harmed the people? That's worth it!
"What do you think? Children are just curious lambs, and they are curious to watch. How can a child have the strength to harm others! ”
"Oh! That's okay! Our children are role models for the children in the neighborhood! You can't let this group of cubs learn from each other. ”
"Master! You say~ How about I let my parents move over? ”
"Ah~~~ Your parents are willing to come over?"
Only then did the second master understand the reason for the little wife's flattery. Since giving birth to a child, the cold eyes of the little wife of the predecessor are no longer gone, and they are replaced by the full maternal peace of a first-time mother.
"In addition, my brother also wants to do an errand in your job~~~"
"Hey! I thought what was the matter! Okay, tomorrow I'll ask the adjutant to give them an entry pass. You also know that if you enter the customs clearance procedure in our Xinjiang, you have to write back to them to make it clear, don't complain at that time! ”
Under the supervision of the Ministry of the Interior, Xinjiang's criticized access procedures have been vigorously and resolutely implementing the rules set by Zhang Dadu.
The Beiyang government has repeatedly taken care of simplifying the inspection and quarantine process for foreign diplomatic personnel stationed in Xinjiang. The second master ignored it. On the contrary, the inspection of foreigners has become stricter.
I'm not even your government official anymore, can you handle it! Lao Tzu is now a local warlord and a local hill eight. How to drop it! If you have the ability, you can send troops to fight me!
Governor Zhang never paid attention to the disputes in the interior, which was disdainful of the reluctance of the warlords. But don't mess with me, otherwise don't blame me for being mad!
It's better for everyone to be safe, you can toss as much as you like in the mainland, anyway, the meat is rotten, and it's also in the pot. As long as you don't betray the country, you can do anything!
While Governor Zhang was dealing with miscellaneous and trivial household matters, the envoy Bolyeonev finally returned to the Tsar's residence.
The tsar was at the front at this time, anxiously waiting for logistical supplies from the rear.
