Chapter 155: Rectification Movement

On the day Li Yi returned at the end of August, the whole of Guangzhou was under high pressure, and everyone felt a cold and a heavy depression.

On the first day of Li Yi's return, he removed all of Jenna's positions and did something to the people around him, which was a signal that Li Yi was announcing to the outside world that the storm was coming.

Only the Phantom is here in Li Yi's office, and Li Yi has not been out of the office for a few days, and he is not allowed to disturb anyone except for the Phantom.

In the early morning, a ray of sunlight shone through the window on the two equally resolute faces, although they were both angular, but one face was handsome with clear angles, and the other was very gloomy.

Their faces were all tired, but they also had a relaxed expression, "Commander-in-chief, have you decided?" ”

"Phantom, Roy! You're going to revert to your real name today, Roy! Now we don't need to hide it, we want the world to know that China has changed! A brand new nation is about to rise! ”

On September 1, 1888, Li Yi did not pass the Military Council and issued the highest military and political order in his own name!

All government departments, military departments, education departments, community departments, and party organizations are required to comprehensively study the above six articles. The media should fully cooperate with the active propaganda and set off a storm of discipline in the entire southern government.

With the cooperation of the media, the entire southern government and the people understand that government officials are servants of the people, and they are no longer masters, they are not terrible, and they have no special rights, as long as they respect the law and abide by the law, no one can infringe on their rights and interests. And understand that he has the right to supervise and report, if that official does something wrong, or does not do practical things for the people, you can report them, so that not only is not guilty but also rewarded.

Through study, government officials have come to understand that they are a member who gets a high salary, a member who serves the people, and is no longer a master of the previous official position, but a public servant who serves the people. Ordinary civil servants are five times the minimum wage of the southern government, there is no need to be corrupt and take bribes, if you want to keep your enviable job, you have to be a public servant.

Through the study of the army, the generals also understood the scope of the general who was not subject to the king's orders, and also understood what his image represented, and more understood who they were loyal to and who they fought for. They are fighting for the country, they must be loyal to the country and Li Yi, they fight for the people, and sacrifice for the happiness of the people is the most glorious thing.

Through learning, business owners understand how important their contribution to the country is, their property is sacrosanct, law-abiding, law-abiding, and reasonable tax payment, then they are important objects protected by the state, and their importance and glory to the country will make them fully feel how glorious the businessman is. Merchant is no longer a lowly business, but an industry that is envied and respected.

Through the study, the students understood the meaning of their own learning, and learned that to be patriotic and maintain the image of the country, they should start from the baby. Although they are small, they are the future masters of the country, and although they are small, they are the hope of the country.

Through study, party members understand what kind of person they are, what kind of organization the party organization is, what the party is for, and why the country has a party. Let them understand that the party is a machine that serves the country, and they must unite the people of the whole country, love the country, protect the country, defend the country, and the national interests are inviolable, and the national interests are supreme!

Through study, the entire people of the south have understood that Li Yi brought all this to them, Li Yi is their supreme leader, supporting Li Leader is what everyone must do, and loving the leader must come from the heart.

Through the propaganda of the media, the people of the whole country know that the people of the north are not comparable with the people of the south at all, they oppress the good here, the officials here are powerful, the people of the north are slaves, and the people of the south are the masters.

On September 6, 1888, Li Yi presided over a meeting of the Southern Government, and all the provincial governments that joined the Southern Government carried out comprehensive reforms, and the 21 southern provinces were merged into ten provinces.

Jiangsu, Anhui, Zhejiang and Zhejiang were merged into Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provinces, Fujian, Jiangxi and Fujian were merged into Fujiang Province, Hunan and Hubei were merged into Hunan Province, Guangdong and Guangxi were merged into Guangdong Province, Yunnan and Guizhou were merged into Yunnan-Guizhou Province, Sichuan Xikang was merged into Sichuan Province, Tibet was merged into Plateau Province, Xinjiang was changed into Ningxia Province, Gansu, Qinghai, Ningxia, Suiyuan were merged into Gansu Province, and Mongolia was changed into Qinghai Province.

The establishment of the southern government and Li Yi's move from behind the scenes to the front have caused an uproar in the world, especially the senior executives within the government and many people from various countries, Li Yi's southern government is like a United Nations.

On 7 September, various newspapers in the South published a public statement in which people from all over the world, headed by Marcus Field Buffon Parker, collectively swore on behalf of the Southern Government that 590,000 people from all over the country had collectively renounced their nationality and joined the Southern Government, that they would be one of the 150 million people in the South, and that they would enjoy the same civil rights.

On September 8, Li Yi, in the name of the supreme leader of the southern government, announced the complete recovery of all the privileges of the great powers and all the colonies in the ten southern provinces. All consulates and offices of various countries in the Qing State were nationalized, and if countries wanted to establish diplomatic relations with the southern government, they had to formally submit their credentials and apply for embassies.

For a long time, the foreign powers only regarded the Qing government as a colony, only consulates, and no country at all formally established diplomatic relations with the Qing government and established embassies.
