Representatives of all parties involved in the establishment of the Burmese military junta gave warm applause to Qin Shou's words. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info It can be said that they are all beneficiaries of the formation of the junta. After the formation of the military government, their interests will be guaranteed and they will be allowed to live a good life. So, naturally, they would welcome the formation of a military junta.
"When the Burmese military junta is formed, it will work to improve the lives of the people so that they can live a prosperous life. At the same time, it will ensure that the country is strong, so that we can defeat the enemy in this war. Qin Shou began to talk eloquently.
Although, before being reborn, Qin Shou may not be very good at speaking. However, after being the commander of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army for so long, he is about to become the commander of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. In this regard, Qin Shou naturally learned a lot.
The next step is to appoint officials from the Burmese military junta, including the prime minister, the minister of industry, the minister of security, the minister of agriculture, the minister of civil affairs, the minister of transport, and the minister of foreign affairs. Among them, the prime minister of the government is appointed to be a high-ranking elder among the Burmese Chinese, named Chen Jiasheng, although he is 60 years old, but he is in good spirits, has a high influence among the Chinese, and is also an outstanding entrepreneur.
The Minister of Industry was Situ Kizan, who was in charge of the junta's industrial development program. Minister of Security Wang Chengdong, formerly the deputy commander of the 4th Division. After the expansion of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army, it was originally planned to make him a division commander, but he was interested in working in the government, so Qin Shou agreed to make him the minister of security. The Minister of Agriculture, named Xu Weicheng, is also a prominent figure among the Chinese in Myanmar, who is only in his 40s, and is in the prime of life. Minister of Civil Affairs, Zhou Yuanlong, is also a Burmese Chinese who immigrated to Myanmar from China with his family as a teenager and is himself a large plantation owner. Liu Fenghua, Minister of Transportation, is a good friend of Situ Jizan, who was invited by Qin Shou to come to the Myanmar military government to realize his ambitions, and invited Liu Fenghua to come to Myanmar together, and Liu Fenghua was invited to join the Myanmar military government together. Foreign Minister Wang Xudong is also a good friend of Situ Jizan.
In addition to these top officials of the junta, the whole of Myanmar is divided into three military districts: Upper Burma, Central Burma and Lower Burma. Each military district will form a military administration that will be responsible for all the affairs of the military region. In addition, each military district will also set up a guard brigade to ensure security in the military area, encircle and suppress the indigenous population who oppose the military government, and ensure the comrades of the military government.
Finally, Qin Shou announced that the Burmese military junta was established today. Next, it's time for the celebration reception. At the celebration reception, Qin Shou, the senior generals of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, and the senior officials of the military government, all became the objects of everyone's pursuit. China has always been a humane society, and Chinese people also pay attention to human feelings. Even though the number of Chinese in Myanmar is not very large, the heads of those Chinese families and the leaders of Chinese enterprises hope to take this opportunity to get in touch with the military government. In that case, it means that they will have more benefits in Myanmar in the future.
The next day, Qin Shou attended the first meeting of the junta. The main topic of the meeting was the development plan after the establishment of the military government. The reason for Qin Shou's establishment of the military government was to build Burma into a development base for the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, so that it could receive sufficient support and support when the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army fought against the Japanese army. In the future, it will rely on Myanmar to gradually industrialize in the entire South Seas.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Burmese military junta was established yesterday. Next, it is up to everyone to work together to develop Myanmar. I only have two demands, first, that Myanmar's industry, especially the military industry, be developed, so that our army can achieve self-sufficiency. Second, the life of the Chinese in Myanmar must be better and better, and in addition, the population must continue to grow and develop, which is the basis of our rule in Myanmar. At the beginning of the meeting, Qin Shou set goals for the Burmese junta.
"On the industrial side, I will discuss it with Minister Situ when the experts sent by the Americans arrive. Next, the second question, does the junta have a plan? Qin Shou asked.
"Commander, in Burma, in addition to the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, there are about a million Chinese. Among the total population of Myanmar, it is a minority, much lower than the Burmese and several other ethnic groups. For a long time, the Chinese have been oppressed by the local indigenous people as well as the Western colonizers. Now that the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army (IRA) is in control of Burma, the Western colonizers have been driven away and will no longer be oppressing the Chinese. However, the phenomenon of local aborigines bullying the Chinese still exists. Prime Minister Chen Jiasheng said with a frown.
Qin Shou nodded, the Chinese are oppressed by the natives all over Nanyang, and this has become the norm. In many cases, they are not even guaranteed to live. The industriousness of the Chinese makes it easier to earn a more lucrative family business, and this often becomes the main reason why the natives and even the colonizers kill them. In Dutch Indonesia, aren't Chinese people often treated like this?
"From now on, those natives can no longer oppress the Chinese. If they dare to oppress the Chinese again, the guns in the hands of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will not let them go. In addition, one of the main responsibilities of the guard brigades to be formed in the future of the three military districts will be to suppress the indigenous people. Qin Shou said.
"Commander, if there is a strong guarantee of force, then there should be no problem." Chen Jiasheng nodded.
"The Commander, the Ministry of Agriculture suggested that the entire land of Myanmar be nationalized, and then distributed to the Chinese, as well as the soldiers and families of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army. The Chinese in Myanmar, some men, women and children, each of whom is allocated 20 acres of land. The soldiers of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army were each allocated fifty acres of land. If their families are able to come to Myanmar, they will receive the same treatment, with each of them allocated 20 acres of land. Minister of Agriculture Xu Weicheng suggested.
Although Myanmar has many mountain ranges, it is actually rich in arable land. Myanmar, with its dense water network, has many riverside plains. These plains are fertile places suitable for farming. In the past, this land was in the hands of Burmese Tusi or British colonizers, and it was completely wasted. If the Chinese cultivate these lands, at least in terms of food, there will be no shortage of anti-Japanese national salvation troops in the future.
Qin Shou naturally agreed with this suggestion. Chinese people have always had a land plot, and they have a nostalgia for land from their bones. With land, they are equivalent to having hope, and they will be more supportive of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army and the military government, as well as Qin Shou himself.
