Wu Liande became the Minister of Health purely because of his ability, and everyone was convinced, and now there are a few provincial governors left in the most important positions, which are also the governors of a province, and he has great power, but I don't know how Qiao Yu will arrange it.

Qiao Yu did not let everyone wait longer, and continued: "The following is the appointment of the chief executives of the three provinces, Sichuan is a major economic province in the southwest, is the locomotive of the development of the southwest, and must be familiar with the economic work of talents, the former mayor of Chongqing Zhou Jun has made remarkable achievements since he took charge of Yucheng, and he will definitely be able to make Sichuan's economy develop better; At present, Guizhou's economy is relatively backward, the ethnic composition is complex, and it is not easy to develop the economy and improve the people's livelihood. ”

Everyone originally thought that Shi Dingzhong would definitely be the governor of Sichuan, but now as soon as they heard Zhou Jun come to power, they knew that the Shi family father and son were restricted, but this is also as it should be, and no leader can joke about his position, besides, Zhou Jun has done a good job in recent years, and it is normal for him to be in the upper position, and Liu Jincai is more unexpected, at first he was unknown, but now he can suddenly appear, I am afraid that this must have made a great effort to exercise, so there is this result, and now the governor of Yunnan Province is left without appointment, Everyone is concentrated, especially a figure like Ren Kecheng, who is sure to impact the position of the governor, is extremely focused.

"Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan three provinces, the most complicated is Yunnan, Sichuan has been on the right track, and Guizhou is in the interior, all things are smooth, only Yunnan has a long border, there are countless places inside, plus the people's livelihood is difficult, drugs are rampant, it is a complete mess, there must be competent personnel to deal with, not only proficient in civil affairs, but also understand the military, but also to deal with ethnic issues, I think about it and think that only Luo Changqi, Mr. Luo is suitable for the position of governor, Mr. Luo has been in Sichuan for many years, Maintain the stability of the Sichuan side, take care of the chaotic national issues in an orderly manner, and work hard, and now I have to work hard and hard! ”

"Don't worry, Luo will do his best to completely settle down Yunnan, and anyone who wants to be the emperor of the soil will be ruthlessly attacked!" Luo Changqi's words were murderous, and he was not gentle at all when he was on the side of the river, but Qiao Yu appreciated it very much, "Governor Luo is not wrong, not only to eliminate the Emperor of Earth, but also to the British and French powers who want to take advantage, and also call me back, I can't lose an inch of land in my hands!" ”

Qiao Yu directly put the great powers within the scope of the attack, which made everyone feel shocked, this patrol envoy does not know the north if he unifies the southwest, how can even the great powers dare to provoke, but there are also people who understand, that is, Jiang Baili, Wang Lingji and others, they know to what extent Europe is fighting now, it is safe to say that even if Britain and France win, they will be completely crippled, and then it should be Britain and France worried that China will challenge their colonies, not the other way around.

Qiao Yu handed over the governor of Yunnan to Luo Changqiu, the most disappointed thing was Ren Kecheng, the position he was originally aiming to win was gone, but there was no chance to oppose it, during this time Qiao Yu had been transferred to the 50,000 army in Yunnan, everything was under Qiao Yu's control, what could Ren Kecheng do without soldiers and generals, what could he regret most now was that Qiao Yu was directly welcomed into Kunming.

Qiao Yucai didn't care about these people, and continued: "The governor of the Sichuan Special Administrative Region is Yu Peilun, the governor of the Yongzhou Military Region is Yao Shiquan, and the rest of the specific personnel appointments will be announced next!" ”

The newly appointed officials were all busy, each taking care of their own affairs, and Qiao Yu left Luo Changqi and Yu Peilun alone.

"Brother Yun Ji, Mr. Luo, the southwest is located in the frontier, but to be honest, there is no border defense, the situation is very bad, the territory is swallowed by the British whale, I let the two of you manage Yunnan and Chuanbian is to reverse this situation, we can't lose the family foundation left by our ancestors, I won't do this unworthy descendant!"

"Junzuo, we don't want to be soft bones, in the past, the Qing court was cowardly, but now that the power in the southwest is steaming, our people's waists will be straight, and we will definitely not be afraid of the British!"

Listening to Luo Changdi's words, Qiao Yu nodded: "That's a good point, Britain and France are already the phoenixes that have been mismatched, this big war has already emptied their families, Fushan and Alder have come to me several times!" Qiao Yu said with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.

Since the start of the First World War, Britain and France have been constantly on the pole to let Qiao Yu knock on the bamboo, Qiao Yu of course is not polite, the lion opened his mouth, Britain and France first sold technology, machines, and then canceled the Gengzi indemnity, various industries in the southwest were also sold, financial privileges were put up, and then various privileges were gradually canceled, and now Britain and France only have two things left to sell, one is tariff power, the other is leased land, Britain and France also know that if they give up both of these things, then the southwest will really read and will no longer be under their control.

But the brutal war made Britain and France can no longer hold on, the Battle of Deland almost disabled the British home fleet, just on the way back to Jericho, two more wounded battleships were sunk by German submarines, which is also blamed on the British destroyer losses are too serious, there is a loophole in the warning circle, so that Germany can take advantage of the loophole.

However, in this way, the British lost ten battleships, and five warships were seriously damaged, which is the treasure that supports the hegemony of the British Empire, and now it is all damaged, how can it not make Britain frightened, if the war is defeated, survival is a problem, where can the forces in the Far East take care of it.

And France is even more miserable, Verdun's meat grinder has so far hanged 600,000 French [***] people, seeing that the blood of France is about to be drained, at this time France has forgotten everything, as long as China can send enough troops to help the Entente achieve victory, they are willing to sell anything.

Although Luo Changqi and Yu Peilun are not very clear about Qiao Yu's various transactions with the Entente, they are also aware of the tariff issue that Qiao Yu said at Sichuan University before.

"Junzuo, can Britain and France really hand over their tariff powers?" Yu Peilun looked very excited.

Qiao Yu nodded slightly: "I think it's almost over, Britain and France have nothing to sell now, can they still sell the colony?" You two can do it boldly, there is no need to be afraid of Britain and France, they are paper tigers now! ”

Qiao Yu and Fushan and Alder have already talked about the issue of tariffs before, Britain and France have relented, but they have not finalized it, in fact, Britain and France are unwilling, but the cruelty of reality is far beyond their imagination, and it is time to compromise.

Luo Changqi and Yu Peilun both showed a smile of relief on their faces, "Junzuo, do you see if we can plan for the abolition of slavery, after all, only by abolishing slavery can we gain the loyalty of the people in Tibetan areas!" ”

"Brother Yunji, the abolition of slavery is inevitable, but this time it is not only Tibetan Province, but also Yunnan and Guizhou, give me to abolish all the Tusi, the political axe must directly control every inch of land, and these Tu Emperors must not continue to exist, but there are too many aspects involved in this kind of thing, your task now is to give me a careful understanding of the local situation, and to formulate various plans, such as the possible rebellion of Tusi, and for example, these upper-class nobles fled to India, Burma and other colonies, how should we deal with it, And how to make the people of all ethnic groups get rich quickly, these must be carefully studied, and the two gentlemen must quickly come up with a plan! ”

After Qiao Yu explained clearly, the officialdom in the southwest has been very busy these days, the newly established Council of Ministers needs manpower, the joint parliament needs to elect members, and it is even more troublesome in military affairs, and a big change of blood is needed, all this aspect is handled by Qiao Yu personally, and Jiang Baili assists from the side.

From now on, there can be no distinction between the Sichuan army, the Yunnan army, and the Guizhou army, and some are only the southwest army, and the management of the army must be regularized, and the ability of officers at all levels must be improved, and it is also necessary to prevent the emergence of new warlords, and there can only be one warlord in the southwest, that is, Qiao Yu, and there must not be warlords of all sizes everywhere like other factions.

In order to achieve this goal, Qiao Yu first unified logistics and recruit recruitment, and all the military salaries of all soldiers in the southwest were directly paid into special bank accounts, without going through the hands of commanders at all levels, and the same was true for weapons and military supplies, which were all responsible for the logistics department, and the recruitment and training of recruits must also be completed by special recruit training institutions.

In the past, the senior officials at all levels of the Chinese [***] team had too much power, such as Beiyang, Yuan Shikai was able to openly let the troops shout to eat Yuan Gongbao's food, take Yuan Gongbao's silver, the Manchu Qing Dynasty spent a lot of money, but Yuan Shikai was fulfilled, this is the most intolerable in Qiao Yu's opinion, how can other people's crops grow in his own field, the purpose of this reform is to cut off the channels for senior officers to control their subordinates, and in the future, senior officers are only responsible for commanding the war, and the rest of the things cannot be involved.

In addition, in order to improve the combat effectiveness of the army, Qiao Yu decided to train officers at all levels in batches, which is also to prepare for the European war.

While Qiao Yu was busy, the delegation of the Entente sent a telegram asking to see Qiao Yu.

"Junzuo, this time the Entente has sent a big man here, it seems that the tariff is going to talk about the tariff issue, and the tight spell on our head is finally going to be removed!" After Jiang Baili saw this telegram, he sighed with emotion in his heart, and the French deputy foreign minister who led the team this time, Briand, the special representative of Prime Minister Clemenceau, and the representative of the British side were Minister Zhu Erdian, and these people were rushing to Yucheng.

"It seems that Britain and France really can't bear it, and only by taking back the tariff power can the economy develop, and I am determined to win!"

Qiao Yu immediately set off to return to Yucheng, gathered all his staff, and carefully studied how to fight for greater rights and interests, at this time, Bai Lian and Zhu Erdian and others also arrived in Yucheng, and saw the busy Yucheng port and industrial zone, Bai Lian's face became more and more ugly.

"Mr. Zhu Erdian, I didn't expect that there would be such a developed industrial zone in backward China, but our war brought them good news, and now we want to come to beg them, it's ridiculous!"
