Chapter 86 Lujiang Autonomous Region
By the time Li Ru came to Zongyang with the remnants of Dong Zhuo, the time had reached January 190 AD, but in terms of the lunar calendar, it was only December 189. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Li Ru sent people to the Huaxia Republic first to apply for containment. threatened that tens of thousands of troops would absolutely obey Li Yu's orders. At the same time, hundreds of thousands of people will follow them south, and there will be countless treasures of gold and silver.
At this time, the congress of deputies to the Supreme People's Congress of the Republic had just been established. Just as Li Yu said, in the future, everyone should be qualified to sit down and talk about similar policies or legislation, instead of continuing to make arbitrary decisions.
As a result, whether to accept Dong Zhuo's remnants became the first topic to be discussed after the establishment of the congress.
Compared with later generations, this congress is obviously simplified, and at this stage only a few county towns where the special zone was originally located, and at the same time, they must also have a socialist party background to be qualified to become a deputy to the people's congress. Not to mention the fact that the number of people has declined, the power to remove the president, which is equivalent to the power of the republic, to remove the head of state, does not exist.
Li Yu's powers are limited by the Constitution (which has not yet been formulated), and if he wants to formulate basic state policies and laws, he must explain them at the congress, analyze the pros and cons, and then vote on and pass them before he can continue.
"Dong Zhuo was brutal and unkind, and implemented a military management policy in Guanzhong, but he acquiesced in the oppression of the people and scholars by the soldiers. Even if Dong Zhuo has been ambushed now, his subordinates have already developed such a habit, and suddenly letting them come over will inevitably cause a conflict with our habits here. Moreover, the south is originally mountainous and forested, which is not suitable for cavalry combat, and I personally mean let them occupy Anhui County, Juchao County, Shu County, Linhu County and Xiang'an County, and station them there.
In this way, one can give full play to their cavalry combat ability, and the other can avoid conflicts caused by discord between the two sides, and finally it is convenient for us to gradually transform them, and finally achieve the goal of real convergence! At the congress, it was not Li Yu who spoke first, but Yuan Lian, who did not support the admission of them.
He took the lead on the podium and introduced in detail the dangers of absorbing Dong Zhuo's remnants and uncertain factors. At the same time, the solution was explained.
"If the remnants of Dong Zhuo are allowed to stay on the other side of the Yangtze River, will they be dissatisfied, and then switch to the Han Republic or Shu Han?" In the stage of inquiry, Chen Yu got up and asked.
"If they are not used to our life, it will also cause conflict. At that time, there will not even be any buffer between us, and if we all make a fuss, it will probably cause losses to the republic! Yuan Lian argued with reason.
But how do we transform them? Will this cause them to be wary and even resistant? Tens of thousands of troops are stationed on the other side of the Yangtze River, and no matter how unstable they are, the unstable factors are still too great! Li Yi, from the military, stood up and asked.
"We do not interfere in the army, but we must lay off a number of superfluous personnel according to our standards, so as not to be too burdened financially. At the same time, since they have come to join us, then they must abide by our rules and regulations, and we will never owe them military salaries and subsidies anyway! But again, they have to accept that we have political commissars in the army, and at the same time, we will send officials to hold official positions in these five counties...... My only concern is whether we have enough officials! After Yuan Jian finished speaking, he looked at Li Yu at the top of the back.
"It's really not okay to send only one prefectural order, and the others will remain the same, so as not to irritate them!" Li Yu proposed.
In a sense, this answer has also indicated that he supports Yuan Lian's proposal. In fact, Yuan Zhuo's proposal is the safest, and at the same time, with the remnants of Dong Zhuo in front, he can share some pressure for the defense of the republic.
In fact, this can be regarded as playing the 'one country, two systems' and 'autonomous region' systems in a different situation. Give Dong Zhuo's remnants a certain amount of freedom and autonomy to avoid some unnecessary conflicts. Then, through the follow-up work of enlightenment and help, this army will be gradually truly absorbed into the republic, just like the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army in the past.
Since Li Yu agrees with this point of view, then everyone basically has nothing to say. The whole venue fell silent. This made Li Yu a little dissatisfied, after all, whether it works or not should be discussed by everyone and get the result later, not what he said.
It's just that for the sake of the congress, which has just been established, it's not easy for him to pursue anything. In the final analysis, everyone is still used to the old system, and it is not so quick to change the concept. When voting, naturally all the deputies supported Yuan Lian's opinion, which made Li Yu a little helpless and helpless.
The matter was thus settled, and the person in charge of reporting this matter back was Jia Xu, who had just come to the republic three days ago. This person has just started to negotiate with Li Yu, but he doesn't want Dong Zhuo to hang up, so naturally there is no need to continue talking. After that, Li Yu expressed his hope to conquer Jia Xu, who also took advantage of the situation to become a republic.
In the short term, he is holding the position of secretary, mainly learning some basic rules by Li Yu's side. However, he also held the position of staff officer of the General Staff, and at the same time privately took over Li Yu's independent intelligence system.
Jia Xu has a high talent in calculating people, and even in intelligence work. A lot of things are basically straightforward, and you can even draw inferences.
Although I don't know if he is Lao Cao's spy leader in history, anyway, Li Yu feels that Cao Cao will definitely have an intelligence system exclusive to him, and among all the people under his command, Jia Xu, who often locks himself at home, is obviously the most suspicious one!
Jia Xu used to be Dong Zhuo before, so there are many people in Dong Zhuo's remnants who recognize him.
"Wenhe, do you think this Huaxia Republic can really accept us and others? It's not going to take the opportunity to swallow us and others, and then let us go where we can cool, right? After telling the notice over there, Li Dao came out to ask.
"There's no need to worry about this!" Jia Xu shook his head, "Li Yu and Taishi have an old relationship, and the two are actually very close to each other. I also advised the Taishi not to use force to force others to compromise, but now that I think about it, it is indeed for the sake of the Taishi!
The troops under Li Yu's command cannot be said to be one in a million, but they are also carefully selected. To be able to join the army, not only do you need to be able to read and write, but even the chief of the army has a certain knowledge of the art of war, and when facing the enemy, even according to the need, the commander and the chief must be dispersed into small groups to fight the enemy, which I cannot do at this stage.
Therefore, if we are directly integrated into it, the cooperation between each other is easy to have problems, and when the time comes, there will be conflicts, and it is easy to hurt everyone's feelings.
There are some things that will not be moved here for the time being, so that the generals can get used to their habits, and then everyone will sit down and discuss how to rectify them, so that it is safer, at least it will not hurt the interests of the generals! ”
In fact, these words were not what he wanted to say, but they were brought by Li Yu. With Jia Xu's character, he will consider from his own standpoint, and will not take the initiative to take sides. However, these words are also good for him, at least there is no harm, so naturally he doesn't mind bringing a message to Li Yu.
"Li Yu asked you to bring these words, right?" Is it his own person, Jia Xu asked rhetorically as soon as Li Ru finished speaking.
"Exactly!" Jia Xu naturally didn't need to deny it, anyway, there was no harm to anyone in saying this. He just knew this, and he also understood that Li Ru would understand this, so he was willing to help with the words.
"In the future, these five counties will be in charge of us? What if we knock down the Lujiang River? Li Ru asked.
"There are some policies that must be based on the republic, and on this basis the localities can be governed on their own. In the early days, the initiation of the soldiers and the arrangement of the political commissar had to be carried out, and at the same time, the prefectural orders were also dispatched by them. However, if an autonomous region is established, the chief is elected among you, and the republic does not participate. Jia Xu replied.
"Okay, tell Li Yu that we agreed to the conditions! But we also want the Republic to send someone to help us set up the health system, the agricultural and industrial system. As for whether the land should be redeemed or not, they have the final say! Li Ru replied.
"Wen You, this land is owned by the state, so aren't our brothers tired and tired and have no land to give to their descendants?" Li Dao has some opinions.
"You just think about your descendants, if your descendants are not good, and you can't do anything, and finally you rob people of the land or are forced to buy the land for a living, and in the end it's not the same? If you're talented, you still don't have anything to eat?!
Besides, as long as you have hands and feet, you can always work and eat, and the welfare here in the republic is very good, since you want to take refuge in others, how can you have no price at all? Li Ru shook his head and said angrily.
Because Dong Zhuo had always been concerned about the republic, even when he was still an autonomous region, he had already sent people to secretly come to investigate. As his confidant, Li Ru naturally knows the situation of the autonomous region very well.
"It's also ...... to say this" Li Dao can't agree with the others, but the petition must be prepared, and they all understand this. Adequate military salaries and even various supplies, including weapons and equipment that they coveted. There are also fewer constraints on them, and many things are business as usual, which is also very much in line with their minds.
But to get this, it is simply impossible to give something at all. Everyone is a real person, the key is that Li Yu also really deals with them, so naturally there is nothing to say.
Several other generals also mean the same way, anyway, the army just needs to be literate, and there is a political commissar for propaganda and education. Anyway, they are not supervising the army, they can't take away their military power, and they have food and salary, so they don't need to change too many habits. Just for this, how can I take refuge in the republic more comfortably than others!
The matter was settled, and Jia Xu returned to Taoyuan County the next day. The remnants of Dong Zhuo, led by Li Dao, directly launched an attack on the surrounding counties, and finally succeeded in occupying the entire Lujiang County within three weeks. With the county order sent by the republic to help stabilize the mood of the local people, Li Ru, as the principal, officially announced the establishment of the Lujiang County Autonomous Region of the Chinese Republic!
At the same time, the Taishou of Jiujiang County, which is next door to Lujiang County, directly announced that he would defect to Tao Qian, but he supported Jiujiang County but merged it into Xuzhou, and Cao Bao, the general of Xuzhou, complied with Tao Qian's order and came to guard it. Tao Qian continued to adhere to the original policy of enactment, declaring his allegiance to the imperial court of Luoyang, so that Xuzhou was also incorporated into the territory of the Han Republic.
The Republic of the Han Dynasty also sent the main force of Lu Bu to Runan County, and the troops of Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song sat in Pei County, and the two sides began to officially border, and it was only a matter of time before a conflict broke out.
In March 190, not long after the New Year, a major event happened in Youzhou: Gongsun Zhan invaded Jixian County, killed Liu Yu and officially occupied Youzhou, and at the same time announced that he would join the Han Republic! (To be continued.) )
