Chapter 403: The Evacuation of the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region

In addition to the shock, there was infinite loss, Zhang Renjun and Yuan Kewen did not speak. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Originally, I was still thinking about overthrowing the Qing Dynasty, the Han people took power, and they also recovered the concessions and customs duties, etc., and abolished many indemnity treaties, and the people of the Chinese Empire should be able to live a good life, but I didn't expect that the world was changing too fast, and he couldn't accept it.

According to the current gap and development speed, the gap between the Chinese Empire and the Xia Empire will only get bigger and bigger.

On the passenger ship on the way back, Zhang Renjun asked curiously: "Virtuous nephew, you said that the Xia Empire has only been founded for a few years, why can it develop so well and so quickly?" ā€

"Uncle Zhang, the most important reason is that the Xia Empire has an incorruptible government; The second is that they have just established the country, and there is no heavy burden, and there is no obstacle from the old forces; Again, they confiscated all the property of the natives, and the natives became their slaves, and with a large number of free laborers, they were only allowed to stutter; In addition, they practice strong centralization, and the state concentrates the strength of the whole country to develop large-scale heavy industries with large investments, such as mining, transportation, iron and steel, cement, and glass, and cedes industries such as bricks and tiles, textiles, and other industries with little investment and quick results to flexible national capital, which complement each other; In the end, they relied on several major wars and received huge reparations. It was also difficult for them to start at the beginning, they survived with loans from Germany and France, and later with the support of the United States, in short, the results they achieved were the result of the efforts of all the citizens of the Xia Empire. Yuan Kewen said slowly, his heart full of envy.

"Hey, we can't learn the methods of the Xia Empire, they have so much fertile land, only such a little people, it's really difficult for them, they have to fight everywhere every year, but the military expenses are not something we can afford." Zhang Renjun comforted himself.

Looking at the blue sea outside the window, Zhang Renjun's mood was like the ups and downs of the waves, he had been an official all his life, and compared with the officials of the Xia Empire, he didn't know how to be an official.

Yuan Kewen was also pondering, if he was the emperor of the Chinese Empire, what would he do? How can the Chinese Empire be as strong and rich as the Xia Empire? The environment and conditions are not the same, there is no complete comparison, but the Chinese Empire can't even solve the food and clothing of the people, it shouldn't be, every year it encounters natural and man-made disasters, and so many people are displaced, if it weren't for the existence of the Xia Empire, I don't know how many people just starved to death every year.

Putting aside the worries, through the observation during this time, the brothers Yuan Keding and Yuan Kewen have really changed a lot in the past few years in the Xia Empire, and he is almost unrecognizable, so Zhang Renjun asked: "Virtuous nephew, you have been in the Xia Empire for a few years, when will you finish your studies and return to China?" ā€

Yuan Kewen sighed and said, "Uncle Zhang, I don't know, we are like hostages now, and we don't look like hostages; Xia Empire said at the beginning, my eldest brother and I can only have one person go back, they feel that whoever is suitable to take over my father's class is likely to go back, and the other person will serve in the Xia Empire, for fear that our brothers will compete and cause trouble. ā€

Zhang Renjun did not continue to answer, but thought in his heart that the Xia Empire was really lenient, and even wanted to interfere in the internal affairs of the Chinese Empire, but he admired the efficiency and credibility of the Xia Empire even more.

At this time, Premier Jiang Baoshan of the State Council of Vietnam was very busy, and Zhao Liangong, chief of the General Staff of the State of Vietnam, was even more busy; he was also the governor of the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region, and now he was also responsible for the work of immigration and the relocation of the government of the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region.

The administration of the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region was directly merged into the State Council of Vietnam, and the personnel were divided into two, some of whom returned to Vietnam first to help Jiang Baoshan work, and some of whom continued to stay in southern Xinjiang to preside over the resettlement and relocation work.

Zhao Liangong first arranged for the transfer of troops, one of the two armies directly under the jurisdiction of the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region was stationed in the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region, and the other army was stationed in Jiaozhi Province and Rinan Province, and the Hainan Garrison dispatched military headquarters and praetorian divisions and mercenaries under the jurisdiction of the 35th and 36th armies to station in the four provinces of Burma.

The police forces of the five provinces and autonomous regions of the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region were transferred to Cochin, Ninan, Annam, and Anbei provinces, and the police force of Yunnan Province was transferred to Shannan Province (the northernmost province of Myanmar, the provincial government is in Mandalay).

The provincial government of each province is the same as the province where the police force has moved in, and the provincial government is also divided into two, with the governor and some administrative staff arriving in advance to take charge of the work of picking up and resettlement, and assuming the functions of the provincial government, and the deputy governor who remains behind is responsible for the migration and relocation.

In the end, the garrison army willing to stay in the Chinese Empire was less than 2,000 people, and a small regiment could only be formed first, which made Zhao Liangong very pleased, and his efforts were not in vain, but Zhao Erfeng was very disappointed.

The following cities and counties also refer to this model.

The redundant administrative cadres were promptly relocated to the provinces of Vietnam, Vietnam, or Vietnam, and the corresponding immigrants also had to move according to the location where the cadres went.

For the administrative cadres whose ancestral home is the Chinese Empire, their opinions will be adopted, and those who are willing to emigrate, like the cadres sent by the Xia Empire, can stay in office and wait for the handover with the Chinese Empire.

Schools and hospitals have also been relocated to the provincial governments along with the provincial governments, where the local indigenous people have already built the infrastructure for hospitals and schools, and they can simply move in.

In order to save time and financial resources for relocation, the principle of this relocation is to relocate nearby, and the immigrants and cadres in Guangxi Province correspond to Jiaozhi Province, and most of the immigrants know that Jiaozhi has a mild climate and fertile land, so 80% of the Han people are willing to relocate with the government.

For the five garrison divisions, they also consulted everyone's opinions, and allowed them to discuss with their families, if they are willing to relocate to the Yue country, they should still remain unchanged according to the original establishment, and the people who are lacking in the future will be supplemented, or they will move with the provincial government of the original province, and for the garrison officers and soldiers who are unwilling to relocate, they will be gathered together to form a new garrison, which will be left to the Chinese Empire and help maintain order, and of course, weapons and equipment will be recovered.

Zhang Wei regretted that cadres at or above the vice-provincial level in the Southern Xinjiang Special Economic Zone were basically unwilling to emigrate, while cadres at or below the city level were all willing to emigrate.

Zhao Erfeng, as the commander of the garrison, was in charge of 5 garrison divisions, and the Xia Empire granted the imperial earl title, but this time he gave up immigrating to Yue and chose to continue to stay in the Chinese Empire, which made Zhang Wei feel disappointed for a while.

In fact, these officers and soldiers think very simply, to serve as soldiers in the Xia Empire, with good treatment, they can support their families, everything is done according to the rules, the officers will not deduct their salaries, and after migrating to the Yue Kingdom, their families will also distribute land, their children can go to school for free, there are no harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and they will not be exploited by the government, many things they can't get in the Chinese Empire, and these are more important to the ordinary people at the bottom, they just don't want to be soldiers, and they will choose to emigrate.

This still shows the difference between the Chinese Empire and the Xia Empire.

The grassroots cadres of the Xia Empire are promoted very quickly, and the probability of being promoted at the provincial level is very low, so the middle and low-level cadres are willing to immigrate to the Xia Empire, and their channels for rising in the Xia Empire remain unblocked; On the contrary, the Chinese Empire promoted very slowly at the bottom, and after reaching the provincial level, all of them were feudal officials, and the chance of being promoted to the central government was greater than that of the Xia Empire; Moreover, the real power of serving as a provincial cadre in the Chinese Empire was greater than that in the Xia Empire, so cadres at or above the deputy provincial level were reluctant to emigrate.

The Chinese Empire has begun to select and transfer cadres to the Western Xinjiang Special Region, from the provincial level to the city and county level, and after arriving, it will gradually hand over the cadres of the Xia Empire, and the right to transfer is in the hands of the Xia Empire, but this has already made Yuan Shikai very satisfied.

Yuan Shikai was very satisfied with Zhao Erfeng's choice to stay in office, and immediately issued an order, Yang Du resigned as speaker of the National Assembly and served as the governor of the Southern Xinjiang Special Region; Song Jiaoren resigned from the post of vice premier and served as the temporary vice speaker of the National Assembly, temporarily presiding over the work of the National Assembly; Zhao Erxun replaced Song Jiaoren as vice premier; Zhao Erfeng served as the general of the Frontier Special Administrative Region and assisted Tang Shaoyi in managing the Frontier Special Region, after all, Tang Shaoyi was a civilian official and was not familiar with military affairs, so he sent Zhao Erfeng to assist, which just complemented each other.

He wanted to leave the position of speaker of the National Assembly to Zhang Renjun, and if Zhang Renjun did not join the company, it would not be too late to mention Song Jiaoren as the speaker of the National Assembly.

The Chinese Empire is changing with each passing day, Yuan Shikai's status in the country is like the sky, he has absolute authority, and now he is grateful to the Xia Empire, and he is more and more found the feeling of being an emperor.

After taking over the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region, the territory under his jurisdiction was much larger, and when the Western Xinjiang Special Administrative Region and the Peninsula Special Administrative Region were recovered and the unification of the entire Chinese Empire was completed, he would be able to compete with the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, and his name would surely go down in the ages.

However, the telegram sent by Yang Du surprised him very much, if the Xia Empire was allowed to organize immigration in this way, the Han people in the Southern Xinjiang Special Region would be reduced by more than half, and the entire Southern Xinjiang Special Region would become a pure minority area except for Sichuan Province, which was very unfavorable to the Empire's rule over the local area.

Yuan Shikai didn't attach much importance to this, in fact, he thought that the Xia Empire wanted to emigrate, and it was not something he could stop it, so he could only comfort himself, the Chinese Empire was not short of people, and the Xia Empire immigrated the locals away, and the remaining land could just be sold for money, or people from populous provinces such as Hubei, Shaanxi and Henan could be relocated; The Xia Empire emigrated those poor people who had no land and no property, just to reduce the burden of the Chinese Empire.

Therefore, he called Yang Du back and tried his best to cooperate with the evacuation of the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region and ensure that the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region was taken over smoothly on schedule, and that no extraneous complications would be made.

After Yang Du saw the telegram, he also knew Yuan Shikai's helplessness, no one had any way to change the decision of the Xia Empire, he was just curious, why only Han immigrants were chosen, even if other ethnic groups applied to immigrate to the Xia Empire, the Xia Empire did not want anything.

Looking at the huge contingent of immigrants with their families and mouths, smiling and full of longing for life, I don't know if their choice is right or wrong, why can't the ever-changing Chinese Empire keep these people? Why are so many people willing to migrate with the government of the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region of the Xia Empire?

Hey, if the normal handover of the Southern Xinjiang Special Administrative Region can be guaranteed, he, the governor, will complete the task. (To be continued.) )
