Chapter Ninety-Four: Northeast Autonomy

For Xia Jun, he can temporarily unify China by force, but he is far from reaching that level administratively, so he supports the Beiyang political axe to separate the military and the government, which is beneficial to the whole country.

If we expect the Beiyang political axe to figure out this separation of military and government, it is basically impossible to achieve it in a situation where the Beiyang political axe is all military separation.

At this time, it is necessary for the East China Autonomous Political Axe to come forward to help.

With the powerful military of East China's autonomous political axe, it is completely possible to subdue those Beiyang soldiers, make them obedient and obedient, and stay away from local administration.

At the same time, the three northeastern provinces are important agricultural areas, and if the central government controls the three northeastern provinces, then those agricultural reclamation companies of the East China Autonomous Government will also be able to enter the three northeastern provinces, and they will enter without hindrance.

If it is Zhang Zuolin, even if he is willing to cooperate with Xia Jun, it is not as convenient as cooperating with Beiyang Political Axe, after all, the two sides have reached a consensus and peace on a large level.

In addition, it is said that he has carried out some cooperation with Zhang Zuolin in the Northeast to obtain the interests of the Northeast, and instigated the Chinese civil war by strengthening Zhang Zuolin's strength, so Zhang Zuolin is one of the most important reasons why Xia Jun does not allow him to exist in the Northeast.

called Yuan Shikai, and Xia Jun went to inspect Xia Bo the next day.

Xia Jun went to Anhui, Anhui is a large agricultural province, far from Fujian and Zhejiang, these provinces can be compared with agriculture, but Anhui has more climate disasters, and Anhui is under the jurisdiction of the East China Autonomous Political Axe, so Xia Jun inspected and ran to Anhui.

The people in Zhejiang have basically achieved the problem of food and clothing, but Anhui has not, and when entering the border of Anhui, Xia Jun sees wherever he goes, and most of the time he goes to the countryside.

Along the way, what made him feel more satisfied was the relief from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, basically every village got the relief food and clothing.

Nowadays, the autonomous political axe of East China has formed a kind of habitual surname of clean administration, and basically no one dares to openly embezzle, although corruption exists, but it is very hidden.

Sure enough, when Xia Jun entered Qingyang County, he found that a poor household in a village had received one-third less relief, and the local villagers did not know about it.

When the chairman of the CPPCC National Committee found that relief grain had been withheld in Qingyang County, he immediately alarmed Anhui Provincial Governor Wu Jiezhang and rushed to Qingyang County overnight to intervene in the investigation.

Wu Jiezhang was the governor of Jiangxi when the Xinhai Revolution broke out, and later returned to Jiangsu and was invited out by the East China Autonomous Political Axe.

The results of the investigation soon came to an end, and the relief grain was swallowed up by the speaker of the local township autonomous council, and the amount involved amounted to more than 300 yuan.

This corruption case quickly caused a shock in the five provinces of East China's autonomous government, and now it is difficult to find a corruption case involving more than 100 yuan under the rule of the East China Autonomous Government.

The embezzlement of 300 yuan was enough to shake people, and reporters flocked to Qingyang County to report on the incident.

In reporting on the corruption incident, the reporter wrote: "According to the reporter's knowledge, this corruption was discovered by the chairman of the committee when he visited the countryside, and this incident has to make the media itself reflect on the decline in supervision." Although corruption in Fujian, Zhejiang, and Jiangxi provinces has been largely extinct, there are still many irregularities in the newly incorporated provinces, and in-depth media scrutiny is needed...... In addition, this newspaper will organize 200 volunteer reporters to visit and investigate the townships and towns in Jiangsu and Anhui provinces. ”

The East China Autonomous Government paid reporters salaries, but they were naturally obliged to conduct interviews and investigations, and each newspaper was required to submit a number of records of visits every month.

The record of the visit should be truthful, and there will be penalties if it is falsified.

When he crossed the Yangtze River and entered the boundary of Wuwei County, he saw a landlord who was transforming the wetland.

Wetlands are an important ecosystem in nature and one of the three major ecosystems on the earth, namely forests, oceans, and wetlands.

China's wetland area accounts for 10% of the world's wetlands, ranking first in Asia and fourth in the world. In China, wetlands are distributed from the cold temperate zone to the tropics, from the coast to the inland, from the plains to the plateau and mountainous areas.

Wetlands are ecosystems with a variety of unique functions on the earth, which not only provide a large amount of food, raw materials and water resources for human beings, but also play an important role in maintaining ecological balance, maintaining biodiversity and rare species resources, conserving water sources, storing floods and preventing drought, degrading pollution and regulating climate, replenishing groundwater, and controlling soil erosion.

Wetlands are known as the kidneys of the earth, and in later generations, China's wetlands were destroyed to the core, and the ecological environment became extremely bad.

China is an agrarian country, so the destruction of ecology has been going on since ancient times.

Ancient China was supposed to be a place with a very large number of species, but it was slowly destroyed by agricultural production.

Xia Jun saw that the landlord was renovating the wetland, and immediately thought of the issue of protecting the wetland.

In addition, the forests of the Yangtze River basin must also be protected.

By protecting wetlands and forests, the likelihood of flooding is greatly reduced.

Xia Jun wrote down the protection of wetlands and forests in a notepad, and pondered about the relevant legislation as soon as he returned.

In order to prepare for the legislation, Xia Jun turned the inspection of the summer harvest into an ecological investigation, and turned back to the Yangtze River to investigate the species of the Yangtze River.

Some fishermen were asked, and the fishermen told Xia Jun that there were a lot of fish in the river.

Ban on fishing? What do they eat?

The ban on fishing is too exaggerated, after all, there are still a lot of fish in the Yangtze River, but the annual fishing moratorium must be carried out, and with the development of productivity, there will definitely be some desperate fishing methods, which must also be banned.

After inspecting for half a month, Xia Jun returned to Hangzhou.

After the investigation, he saw a Chinese ecological environment that was very different from that of later generations, and the ecological environment of this year was much better than that of later generations.

This situation must be maintained.

As soon as he returned to Hangzhou, Xia Jun carried out legislative actions on ecological protection and species protection.

…… At the same time, the confrontation between Beiyang Political Axe and Zhang Zuolin continued to heat up, and Yuan Shikai got the promise of East China's Autonomous Political Axe, and suddenly had confidence.

For this reason, Yuan Shikai issued four orders in a row, and ordered Zhang Zuolin to be transferred to Chahar.

The governor of Chahar was originally Feng Guozhang, but now Feng Guozhang is still serving his sentence in Hangzhou and will not be released until five years later, so the governor of Chahar is vacant.

There were no people in Chahar, and there was no oil or water.

When you get to Chahar, there is basically no future to speak of.

Zhang Zuolin is a ruthless character who has developed from a bandit to a local warlord, and he did not start from training at a small station, his ambition is naturally very huge, and he is not afraid of Yuan Shikai.

Yuan Shikai's four orders provoked Zhang Zuolin.

In order to fight against the Beiyang political axe, Zhang Zuolin began to contact Yueben.

On 17 August, Zhang Zuolin solicited the support of the political axe and promulgated the "Constitution of the Fengtian Security Association" and at the same time declared the autonomy of Northeast China.

At this time, Xia Jun had just completed the legislation on ecological protection and established the Ministry of Environment, with Liang Kesi, a professor of ecological protection at East China University, as the minister.

In the future, the Ministry of Environment will protect the coastal areas of Jiangsu and the wetlands of various lakes, and the Ministry of Agriculture will cooperate with the Ministry of Environment to return the cultivated land around the wetlands, which is expected to return 3 million mu of land.

At the same time, the Ministry of Environment will legislate to protect the forests in the Yangtze River basin and prohibit the felling of trees in the Yangtze River basin.

The legislation also identifies more than 50 species of wild animals that need to be protected, prohibits the hunting of these wild animals, prohibits people from using electric shocks, poisoning, and other methods to catch fish in the river, and prohibits trawling nets from fishing in the Yangtze River basin, and the Yangtze River will be closed for seven months every year. In the East China Sea, there is a six-month fishing moratorium every year.

In addition, 15 national forest parks and 18 national wetland parks will be established.

Pandas are also included in the scope of protection, but pandas are in the Sichuan area, and the military needs to cooperate with the Ministry of Environment to enter Sichuan to protect pandas.

It is too late to protect wild animals as soon as possible, and now China's productivity has begun to grow because of the emergence of the East China Autonomous Axe, and if this growth is not guided, the scale of wild animals will rapidly decrease.

In addition, the Propaganda Department should cooperate with the publicity to raise people's awareness of wildlife protection.

As soon as the legislative work was completed, Xia Jun received a call from Yuan Shikai, Xia Jun picked up the phone, and heard Yuan Shikai say on the phone: "Xia boy, Zhang Zuolin is self-governing, you see what to do!" ”

"We can send two divisions of troops." Xia Jun thought about it and said to Yuan Shikai that it should be almost enough to deal with Zhang Zuolin and send two production corps.

"The central government can also send two divisions." Yuan Shikai saw that Xia Jun was willing to send out two divisions, so naturally he couldn't send less, but there was no need for more, after all, the central government sent out two more divisions, that is, four divisions, and four divisions dealt with Zhang Zuolin's division, which was indeed a knife to kill chickens, of course, this operation was also to kill chickens to show monkeys, to deter and deter warlords in other places.

"When does Yuan Gong plan to send troops?" Xia Jun asked.

"Half a month later! The East China Army may rush to Yanjing in half a month? Yuan Shikai asked.

"Half a month is enough."

"Then it will be negotiated, and after half a month, the forces of the two sides will gather in Yanjing, and then attack the northeast in one fell swoop." Yuan Shikai was already a little impatient, as long as Zhang Zuolin was solved, then the other local overseers would be much more honest.

…… After talking to Yuan Shikai on the phone, Xia Jun Ma Shan convened a meeting of the army leadership, Xia Jun originally wanted to send two production corps to the northeast, but the military department leaders thought that they should take the opportunity to train the troops, and the mixed brigades had not yet fought, and they had no chance to suppress the bandits.

Chen Xuanyu proposed that the four mixed brigades be transferred to the north, and since the establishment of the mixed brigades is not at the division level, but is a professional brigade-level unit, it is more suitable for dividing troops into operations.

Xia Jun thought about it and agreed to Chen Xuanyu's proposal, and China was about to break out again into a civil war...... Unlike the last time, this civil war will be a concerted action of the two sides in Beiyang and East China.
