Chapter 764: Governing a Great Country, Cooking Small Fresh Food
"Dear me, if you are such an old man and you still have to be a student, isn't this a return to life?" Liu Xiang muttered as he changed into his military uniform.
"Fucheng, don't complain. We are all the same. If they ask us to reinvent ourselves, just be honest and obedient and try to be a new person."
"Crystal Monkey, don't act like a good boy when you get an advantage, or you'll get beaten!"
Deng Xihou immediately shook his head: "How can I get any advantage? Don't we all have to start learning? We are all the same."
"What's the same?" Liu Wenhui said loudly: "Don't think of everyone as fools. We all have requirements. If your grades are not up to standard, you will not be able to lead the army. Not only do you not need to inspect, but after you enter the army, you will be directly appointed as the deputy division commander. You are one level higher than us at the beginning, and you have already taken advantage of it. If you don't get the advantage, why should you act like a good boy?"
"Do it yourself. This is called a man who knows the current affairs. It's useless for you to be greedy."
These grass-headed kings from the southwest have basically arrived in Beijing. Except for those who are older, have a bad reputation in the area, and do not want to hang out in the army, all the others have been admitted to the Army University and started a new student career.
According to the plan, they will learn military technology for one and a half years, and then enter various military units as interns and serve as deputies. After another year and a half, if they perform well, they can be directly deployed to become generals at all levels. In other words, it will take three years. It takes time to lead the army independently again.
For these people, the time was indeed a bit long, but when they arrived in Beijing, it was really eye-opening. They visited the latest factories and schools, and saw the roads and railways being built. Industrialization itself was a huge shock. When they saw They couldn't help but drool when they saw those weapons being manufactured like water flowing from the production line.
Compared with these gadgets, their previous equipment was simply rubbish, rubbish among rubbish. Especially after visiting the Guards Division, the scene of hundreds of tanks roaring and charging simply shocked their jaws. If they could command such a commander An army may be more enjoyable than being a grass-headed king. Everyone has a calculation in their mind.
Not only these people from the southwest, Song Zheyuan, Zhang Zizhong and other northwest army generals were also summoned to the capital. In addition to them, Chen Jiongming from Guangdong also went north. Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi from Guangxi also asked themselves to be reorganized.
Zhang Tinglan is not surprised by this. We are all smart people. Just like a child who wants an injection, there is no way he can escape. A smart child will get an injection honestly and get some candy. If he keeps crying. It has no effect, the needle will still stick to the body.
According to the current situation, the entire country's political affairs have been basically unified, except for Taiwan, plateau and other places. The government's forces have basically controlled the whole country, and a unified China has finally emerged.
Time also entered 1926. In the blink of an eye, it was another New Year. Zhang Tinglan ran non-stop to several factories and military bases outside, and did not rush back to the capital until New Year's Eve.
At this time, Zhang Zuoxiang, the head of the family, had already prepared a reunion dinner. Zhang Xueliang, Zhang Xueming and others were also invited. In addition, Zhang Tingshu also returned from Europe. It was an unprecedented reunion for the family.
A total of more than a dozen tables were set up for the New Year's Eve dinner, with men, women, old and young sitting together, and a bunch of children running back and forth on the floor. There were a large number of people in the family, and there were no plans, so the uncles and nephews were often the same. Years old, some uncles were even younger than nephews, so they all mingled together, making it very lively.
When Zhang Tinglan walked in from the outside, the children couldn't help but be a little scared when they saw him. They ran into the adults' arms one by one. Only Da Ya jumped off Zhang Zuoxiang's lap and rushed into Zhang Tinglan's arms in a few steps.
Zhang Tinglan was also extremely proud. She rubbed her stubbled face against Da Ya's pink little face, making Da Ya giggle.
"Baby girl, are you good at home?"
"Good boy, you are obedient!"
"Really?"
"Yes." Da Ya nodded without hesitation, but her little face secretly turned back, as if she glanced at Zhang Xueliang.
Zhang Tinglan didn't know how weird his daughter was, so he patted her head with a smile, sat on the seat with Daya in his arms, and said with a smile: "Han Qing, Daya has gone to harm you, right?"
Zhang Xueliang had a wry smile on his face and was about to speak when Daya suddenly glared at him: "If godfather says bad things, Daya will never like you again!"
The little girl spoke very seriously, making Zhang Tingshu laugh loudly: "Brother Six, now you have someone to treat you!"
At this time, Zhou Xinyao took Daya from Zhang Tinglan's hand and said in a low voice: "I'd like to say that Daya let go of one of Han Qing's thrushes and lost a golden grasshopper. The most annoying thing is that...
I smashed several pairs of Wenwan walnuts."
Zhang Tingshu was laughing like crazy next to him. Did he know that Zhang Xueliang's pairs of walnuts were said to be specially bought and exchanged. A pair of pointed lion heads were exactly the same size and had been rubbed red and shiny, with the light of a layer of gems.
Being smashed by Da Ya was so hilarious.
"Da Ya, do you want to try that walnut? Is it delicious?"
"Second uncle, my godfather's walnuts are beautiful but not delicious. The teacher taught Da Ya a word, called goldfish outside, defeat..." Da Ya said while rolling her little eyes, as if wondering what it was.
"Gold and jade are ruined on the outside!" Zhang Zuoxiang, who was sitting on the main seat, spoke: "Han Qing, I won't say anything more about you, but you can't play like the Eight Banners disciples.
Learn all your skills, otherwise I won’t be polite.”
Zhang Xueliang also lowered his head when he was told. Zhang Tinglan saw that the atmosphere was a bit awkward and hurriedly smiled and said: "Dad, don't talk about Han Qing. He is just idle. After the New Year, the Air Force is also expanding, so Han Qing will be busy.
That’s it.”
"I beg your pardon, is it possible to expand the army again?" Zhang Xueliang asked hurriedly.
"The main thing is that the naval and air forces need to be expanded. In addition, the South China Sea Fleet also needs to be established, and pressure must be maintained on the British in the southwest. In short, there will be a lot of trouble, so be prepared!"
"Okay, I've been looking forward to getting down to business for a long time."
Everyone was chatting and eating New Year's Eve dinner, and there was laughter and laughter everywhere. Just when they were halfway through the meal, Shen Hua suddenly hurried to Zhang Tinglan's side and stuffed a note into Zhang Tinglan's hand.
Zhang Tinglan just took a look, and a hint of unhappiness suddenly flashed in his eyes, but he did not show it, but continued to eat. However, Zhang Xueliang and Zhang Tingshu on the side noticed something unusual. Zhang Tinglan's eyebrows were raised a little, and it was obvious that he was very worried.
Angry.
After a hasty meal, Zhang Tinglan hurried to the study, followed closely by Zhang Tingshu and Zhang Xueliang.
"I'm sorry, what happened? Why don't we stop celebrating the New Year?"
"It was over in Xinjiang that many settlement corps were hit. More than 100 people died and hundreds more were injured."
Upon hearing this, both Zhang Xueliang and Zhang Tingshu frowned: "You bastard, you are simply crazy. I would like to say that you must not let go of this kind of thing and must be dealt with severely!"
Zhang Tinglan also nodded slightly. After arriving in the study, Yang Yuting and Liu Shaoqing, who was in charge of intelligence, were waiting here.
"Exactly what happened, tell me the story in detail."
"I would like to say that the problem started when the army entered Xinjiang. Qin Wei and Rongzhen led the army. After more than three months of fighting, they basically put down the banditry in various places and controlled the northern and southern Xinjiang.
Subsequently, a large number of immigrants moved northward. According to the plan, we have started to build some large farms, and the land reclamation divisions have also moved in. There have been some conflicts with the locals. Many people say that the Han people want to seize their land.
There have been constant riots, especially in southern Xinjiang. I didn't expect that they would choose to commit such a bloody incident during the Chinese New Year. A total of 137 farm workers and public officials died, and there were 345 injured.
, it’s simply abominable.”
When Zhang Tinglan heard this, he also frowned: "Ling Ge, you immediately convey my order and demand a strict investigation. I will find out all the murderers. They will be solved strictly and quickly. The deceased must be given an explanation."
"I will make arrangements right away. In addition, I suggest setting up a branch of the Special Investigation Bureau in Dihua to take charge of intelligence security work."
"Yes." Zhang Tinglan agreed without hesitation, and then said: "The dead and injured must be properly compensated, and the plan of immigrating to the northwest must not be affected."
The bloody tragedy cast a shadow over the otherwise joyful New Year. The Ministry of National Defense, General Staff Department, Ministry of Public Security, and intelligence agencies in Beijing immediately formed a special investigation team and immediately headed to Xinjiang.
After working for a few days to arrange everything, Zhang Tingshu and Zhang Xueliang suddenly found Zhang Tinglan again.
"Honestly, this is a plan we have drawn up to strengthen public security in the northwest, ensure local tranquility, and ensure the personal safety of immigrants."
Zhang Tinglan took over the plan and after looking through it for a few times, the expression on his face was very exciting. Finally, he looked at Zhang Tingshu and Zhang Xueliang with a smile.
"Is this plan really yours? Did someone give you an idea?"
"I'd like to say, do you also think this plan is very good? But don't worry, it is definitely the two of us. After studying in Europe and the United States, we have also improved a lot of skills and gained a lot of knowledge. This is what we
It’s something I put all my heart and soul into and drafted.”
"That's right, we have formulated a total of five measures. The first is zoning segregation, the second is regular reduction of children, the third is birth control, the fourth is religious rectification, and the fifth is universal gun distribution. The reason why our people suffer
, because there are no weapons. As long as there are weapons, like the United States, all people can carry guns, and they can fight back immediately after encountering an attack."
"That's right. Coupled with the previous measures to control the total population, as long as it lasts for a few decades, the northwest will be completely settled. I'd like to ask, what do you think of this idea?"
Zhang Xueliang looked at Zhang Tinglan expectantly, hoping to get his approval.
"Zhang Tinglan thought for a while and then said: "Han Qing, you said that a person clearly had a cold, but the doctor told you to have an operation. What do you think you should do?"
