Chapter Ninety-Seven: The German-Austrian Merger
Zhang Chun's irritability, Mao Shishan, Wu Hao and others also noticed it.
However, the headquarters is now short of people, Liu Ying and Jiang Fangzhen have retired, and Zhang Chun did not resign, but only said that he wanted to return to Hubei. Li Zhilong and Zeng Yi were transferred back to the headquarters, China's army cannot still be the Continental Army, and the navy and air force are high-tech arms, and they are all high-tech, so they should be inclined to the navy and air force.
Liu Ying stayed at Dunhuang University, and Jiang Fangzhen was ready to return to the Xinmin Military Research Institute to continue as a professor after the handover. Bai Chongxi stayed in Nagasaki, and He Long also rushed over.
Wu Hao stayed in Lianyungang to coordinate between the military and the government. He transferred Lin Boqu to his side.
Mao Shishan followed Zhang Chun back to Hubei, he ran outside for a year, Yang Kaihui gave birth to a second child and didn't go back, and if he didn't go back, he was afraid that life would be difficult.
On the train back to Xinmin, Mao Shishan proposed to solve the problem of reunification.
"The Chinese government must always have a look, and it should talk to Chiang Kai-shek."
"You can look at this matter, according to the structure of the Wuhan government, you can talk to Chiang Kai-shek, you can't do the party like Chiang Kai-shek, this is no different from the family world. It is better for the party to study social issues, grasp the general direction, unite the people's support, and not participate in the actual governance. ”
"What's next for the country?"
"How much capacity, how much rice to eat, how much to eat. Limit the ability to carry out national integration, beyond which there will be trouble. Adhere to education for all, Chinese characters, Chinese language, Chinese culture, science and culture, don't teach anything else, it's the same everywhere. ”
"Beiping?"
Zhang Chun was silent. After a long time, he said: "The scale of the city of Beiping is relatively large, and it can be used as a symbol of the country." But it needs to be transformed. Our cities should not be centralized, but should be dispersed on the basis of transportation arteries. So, Beijing and Tianjin merged. A city depends on where it is. If it is an agricultural city, it is an agricultural city, and if it is an industrial city, it is an industrial city. It should be a cultural city, and it is also a cultural city. However, Beiping has gone through the Ming and Qing dynasties and is full of imperial culture, so I hope you don't live there. The criticism of culture should be criticized, the inheritance should be inherited, and the transformation should be transformed. But the most important thing is to be open. The merger of Beijing and Tianjin is for this purpose, facing the sea, and the mind will always be broader. Personnel exchanges should be strengthened in all places. Closure is going to be problematic. ”
"Those people from Beiping?"
"Those who are willing to stay stay, and those who are not willing to stay leave. What is the direction of their main flow? ”
"One is the United States, the other is the South Seas. The wealthy businessmen in the Kuomintang are also going in these two directions, and the number is huge. ”
"The people who should go can't stay. But if you go abroad. It's okay to give them some help, after all, they are all Chinese and have the same blood. Zhang Chun smiled: "Actually, I don't care, it's just that I've been irritable recently." It takes time to recuperate. I used to have too many restrictions, and now some of them are no longer needed. You can do it freely, as long as you don't make mistakes of principle. In a country, small mistakes can be made, because no one can say what will happen in the future. But a mistake of principle was made. will destroy the country. The bigger the country, the more so. I believe you have done a good job in other things, and you have done a good job in the past few years. ”
――――――――――
Back to Xinmin. Looking at the children and students, Zhang Chun's mood relaxed.
"It seems that I really don't fit into a big house." Zhang Chun joked to Mao Shishan: "All the troubles are left to you, I just look at these hopes." ”
Mao Shishan laughed.
In the back mountain of Daoxiangyuan, the atmosphere is much lighter.
When Qin Bangxian and Zhang Guotao came over, the two of them were talking and laughing.
"Hitler left Austria as a penniless artist. Now he announced the merger of Germany with Austria. Germany's population has reached 70 million. Germany is connected to Italy, and this is a European nightmare? Or is it a Russian nightmare? Britain and France clearly did not think it through. ”
Zhang Chun smiled and said, "What are you discussing?" ”
"Today, Germany and Austria are merged. Britain and France continue their policy of appeasement, and I think they will regret it. Zhang Guotao's eyebrows danced.
Zhang Chun and Lizhi cleaned up the table and let the two of them sit down, and Lizhi poured tea for them.
Zhang Chun said half-jokingly: "You are so happy about other people's disasters. ”
The two of them laughed.
Mao Shishan said with a smile: "Two, you might as well talk about how far Germany can go at most." ”
Qin Bangxian pinched his fingers and calculated: "Germany and the near-German nationalities include Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Czech Sudetenland, the Italian Lombardy, the Russian Volga Germany, the French Alsace and Lorraine, the density and total population in Europe is quite strong, the question is whether it can be integrated, and how long it will take to integrate." There are too few natives, and if you are too impatient, it will inevitably collapse. ”
"These populations are in the northeast, and of course, the French are more worried, so they build a defensive line. The intention of Britain and France should have been to acquiesce in Germany's development to the northeast. Let Germany and Russia pit against each other and buy time for their economic recovery. ”
"Volga Germany, primarily Tsar Catherine II, who was born in Stettin, Germany. Catherine II issued two edicts, in 1762 and 1763, inviting Europeans other than Jews to move to Russia, reclaim the land, and allow them to preserve their language and culture. In addition to the reclamation of wasteland, another important consideration of Catherine II was the creation of a buffer zone between Russia and the Far East. A large number of Germans migrated to Russia. In contrast, the French and English were more inclined towards the Americas than towards Russia. In 1918, the Volga German Autonomous Prefecture was established, and in 1924, it was upgraded to the Volga German Soviet Autonomous Socialist Republic, with an area of 30,000 square kilometers and a population of about 600,000. Will the Russians be worried about 600,000 people? I don't think so. ”
"Germany will not fight hard with Russia now, and even if it has ideas, it will be after it grows stronger. And where is the direction of growth? Britain and France were deceived by Hitler's tough statements. Qin Bangxian said with a smile.
"What do you think we should do?" Mao Shishan looked at the two of them with a smile.
Zhang Guotao and Qin Bangxian pointed at Mao Shishan and laughed: "Don't think that we don't know about the ghost tricks you and Bai Chongxi and Jiang Baili played, Japan is really pitiful, not to mention provoking a big country like China, but also provoking the Soviet Union, and now the United States is also very jealous of Japan." You are forcing Japan into a bitter cold land, and you are driving Japan into a dead end. ”
Zhang Guotao added: "There are nearly 70 million Japanese people, even if you eat 20 million piecemeal, there are still 50 million, depending on what you do, we are only more than 300 million people, and we have not completely completed national integration." Without ten years, I advise you not to think, otherwise then there will be endless suffering. ”
Mao Shishan rubbed his face and said with a smile: "Population is indeed a problem. The Japanese are still very national, and although many Japanese yearn for Chinese culture, yearning for Chinese culture and integration are two different things. Don't talk about that, take it one step at a time. ”
"I advise you to stop and stop, set foot on Kyushu Island, and your strategic purpose has been achieved. We will complete domestic reunification as soon as possible and stabilize the southwest. In my opinion, the Soviet Union will not suffer this loss, and the Soviet-Japanese war will still break out. Our main focus is still in the East, otherwise your careful thinking will be all cheaper than the Soviet Union. Qin Bangxian said with a smile.
Mao Shishan smiled and asked, "What do you two think about the Japanese population problem?" ”
Both of them shook their heads: "There is no way, there are too many, it is not comparable to Mengman Huizang." ”
All three of them looked at Zhang Chun.
Zhang Chun said with a smile: "You are all playing with intrigues and tricks, how can it be so complicated, you are targeting the idea of imperial power and militarism, not the common people?" Be kind to the people, open the port, engage in more policies to benefit the people, let the people live well, and the people will naturally support you. If you make a bad situation for the people, you will not be able to protect your own country, and you will still think of any kind of expansion, which will be harmful and useless. ”
All three of them nodded and said, "That's right, we can't forget the roots." ”
Zhang Guotao said with a smile: "Actually, Mr. Zhang's belly is black, the outer northeast is a bitter cold place, even the main island of Japan is not as good, if you really want to open the port, the emperor can't stop the flow of population." But don't be soft on spies when the time comes. ”
Qin Bangxian said: "Pay attention to population statistics and distribution, and don't have a single ethnic group's settlement area. The Volga Germany of the USSR was a hidden danger left by Catherine. (To be continued......)
