Chapter 172: Planning

The changes in the southwest military came very quickly, and after Xiao Mubai spent one day making proper arrangements for the personnel changes at the top level, he devoted all his body and mind to the preparations for the Second National Congress of the Communist Party to be held in Chengdu.

Different from the "First Congress" held secretly in the early days of the grass five years ago, this meeting has attracted too much attention at home and abroad. This is not just the first real national congress of the Communist Party of China, but a congress that will affect the current trend of China's domestic politics in a certain sense. With the victory in the battle for Burma, the Communist Party of China (CPC) has long since ceased to be the name it once was. The Communist Progressive Party, which is considered by countless people of insight in China to be the hope of the nation, has long since become the most powerful political party in China today.

As the head of the Shaanxi delegation to the Party Congress, after a year, sitting in a car and driving on the streets of Chengdu again, looking at the changes in the city outside the car window, Yang Shukan felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Under his administration, bandits and bullies in Shaanxi have almost disappeared within a year, and social security has never been better; With the investment of large sums of money, industry has developed rapidly, and the nine-year compulsory education has completely covered most areas of the province, and the encouragement of industry and commerce has caused a large number of low-tech private factories to spring up like mushrooms after a rain, and the forced apportionment of rent and interest reductions has greatly increased the income of the peasants. This year, Shaanxi's development speed is not an exaggeration to describe it by leaps and bounds.

But now, looking out the car window, the uneven, narrow and dirty street has now become a wide asphalt concrete pavement, a neat and black pavement, a layered green vegetation on both sides, and high-rise buildings rising from the ground on both sides of the road. Yang Shukan had to admit that as the first province under the jurisdiction of the southwest that will have an annual fiscal revenue of more than 100 million yuan, there is no doubt that Sichuan's socialization reform is the fastest.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, more than 40 party delegates from Shaanxi, under the leadership of Yang Shukan, took two cars and finally arrived at the guest house responsible for the reception of the party congress. Later, in the guest house, the reception staff began to arrange for the delegation members to sign in and collect their belongings, while Yang Shukan smiled next to him and began to discuss the agenda and schedule of the party congress with the deputy head of the delegation, that is, Zhong Changzuo, the governor of Shaanxi Province. At this time, there were also two cars parked at the door outside the door, and a large group of people poured in. Although the hall was very spacious, it was quite hectic for such a large number of people to pour in all of a sudden. The staff in charge of reception obviously didn't have much experience in reception, and they were in a hurry for a while.

Yang Shukan saw at a glance Li Yueyuan, secretary of the Yunnan Provincial Party Committee, who was walking in the crowd in high spirits. It turned out that the delegation from Yunnan had arrived.

"Secretary Li!"

"Huh? Cangbai? - Secretary, you arrived first? Li Yueyuan hesitated for a moment, and immediately recognized Yang Shukan in the crowd, and said with a smile: "You Shaanxi Road is farther, but you arrived before us." ”

In Yang Shukan's view, Li Yueyuan, who wears a pair of wide glasses, is actually more like an elegant scholar than a provincial party secretary who is in charge of the government. Holding Li Yue's hand, Yang Shukan said enthusiastically: "Secretary Li, in the next few days, we will live under the same roof and be neighbors." ”

Seeing Li Yue's radiant and high-spirited appearance, Yang Shukana didn't know the reason. During the past year, Li Yueyuan has been engaged in a meticulous career in his post as secretary of the provincial party committee, and has fully cooperated with the various economic construction plans implemented by Governor Wang Zhengya. It is precisely because of this that after the party congress, Li Yueyuan will be elected as a member of the Politburo and take up the post of director of the Central Propaganda Department.

In fact, for Xiao Mubai's insight into people, Yang Shukan also admires it in his heart. In Yang Shukan's view, Li Yueyuan, although he is in an important position, shows his true character as a literati, and is the kind of scholar who is cynical and has no room for sand in his eyes. However, there is no room for many "scholars" in officialdom, and a person with such a civilized personality as Li Yueyuan is very easy to provoke anger. In fact, the most suitable position for a person with such a personality is to work in the cultural education or propaganda system, rather than to be in charge of the political side.

Of course, Li Yueyuan didn't know what Yang Shukan was thinking. He just smiled and shook his hand, looking very disappreciative of Yang Shukan's politeness, in fact, looking at Yang Shukan in front of him, he also had a lot of emotion in his heart at this time. can make a Shaanxi with a bad foundation undergo earth-shaking changes in a year, and this ability alone is not something ordinary people can do. I have also been the secretary of the provincial party committee for a year, and the hardships of this can only be experienced by myself.

"Cangbai, your Shaanxi has developed very well this year, and Chairman Xiao has praised it!"

"Shaanxi's development has just begun, and there are still many unsatisfactory places. It's a pity..." When he said this, Yang Shukan had infinite emotion, and his mind at this time was even on the development of Shaanxi.

Of course, Li Yueyuan knew what Yang Shukan was sorry for, and Yang Shukan's departure from Shaanxi after the Party Congress had become an inevitable trend. In fact, he also quite understood Yang Shukan's feelings, but he couldn't persuade him in this matter, so he had to say at the moment: "Cangbai, since history has given our generation heavy responsibilities and opportunities, we have the responsibility and obligation to lead 40,000 people to move forward towards the definite goal for China's development." As the saying goes, with the continuous improvement of status, the greater the responsibility you will have to bear, you must adjust your mentality as soon as possible, and then devote yourself to the new work. ”

Yang Shukan nodded in understanding. Things gather like and people by groups, because he is such a person.

As Li Yueyuan said, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility! This sentence is used to describe Xiao Mubai, but it is very appropriate. For him, the most important issue at the moment is to unify the whole country and unify the whole country as soon as possible. Yes, he doesn't want to wait anymore, and the next three or four years will be the best time for China to catch up with the world. In the original time and space, the next few years should have been a good time for the economy to flourish, but in the end, all these advantages were destroyed due to the turmoil in the country. Now that there is one more Communist Party and one more Xiao Mubai in this time and space, the Chinese nation cannot miss this opportunity again.

In this time and space, no one can understand where Xiao Mubai's dislike for the Japanese comes from, because no one knows better than Xiao Mubai how this close Chinese neighbor in the early twentieth century rose in parallel time and space. When the great surprise of the first year of the year was diluted by a disastrous victory thirteen years later, which cost 100,000 young lives and 2 billion national dollars without receiving any reparations, Japan, which was actually in debt of 1.2 billion yen, was on the verge of collapse. Perhaps no one believes that in the early years of the Republic of China, Japan needed to import industrial workers from China, but its own industrial workers were far less than the workers in Shanghai and southwest China received as much money during the time period. With a crushing debt crisis and a depreciating currency, the tiny island nation is running out of breath.

However, with the outbreak of World War I, China's Qingdao and Shandong, as well as Germany's many islands in the Pacific, allowed the Japanese ruling circles to seize this opportunity and grab the maximum profit at the minimum cost. Once again, Japan's fortunes have taken a huge turn.

Due to the capture of Qingdao and the Jiaoji Railway, coupled with Lushun and South Manchuria, Japan, which had actually strangled the Bohai Strait, took advantage of the sharp contraction of European power such as Britain and the United States in World War I, and the strength of the Japanese was able to spread throughout Northeast China and North China. The abundant resources of the two places were exchanged for cheap loans and weapons, but they were sold to Europe, which was in dire need of replenishment, at several times or even dozens of times higher. Otherwise, with only the pitiful industrial and commercial resources in Japan, how could it have been able to pay off its foreign debt of 1.2 billion yen in one fell swoop, and then leap from a debtor country before the war to a creditor country after the war, and hold 2.8 billion yen in the debts of other countries?

If it had not accelerated the pace of expansion against China and sucked blood from China, how could Japan have taken this opportunity to transform from an agricultural country to an industrial country in one fell swoop?

Therefore, we must not repeat the mistakes of the original time and space. Time did not allow him to develop little by little, and the First World War forced Britain and France to shrink their forces, but it did not mean that they would abandon the Far East. If reunification cannot be completed as soon as possible, after the end of World War I, it will not only be jackals but also tigers and leopards.

With great power comes great responsibility! We must grasp the opportunities and responsibilities given by this history. No matter how difficult the road is, you must bear it! Maybe one day I will lose my life because of this, but at least I have tried. Worthy of the once glittering military epaulettes on his shoulders! Worthy of the heart! Worthy of the country! Worthy of the nation!
