Chapter 249 Military Reform

It was very hot in Beijing in July, as if there was a fire in the sky. However, the whole city of Beijing was in full swing. The reconstruction of Beijing's old city had started last month. After the negotiations with Japan, the cabinet specially

Allocate 10 million yuan to transform Beijing and strive to complete the first phase of transformation within three months. Within next year, Beijing will be built into a city that contains both ancient and modern flavor.

Many poor people in Beijing are employed by the government. Although they are a little tired, the monthly salary of 8 yuan and the salary of taking care of lunch make most people flock to it. Even many poor Manchus are attracted by it.

Rushing to join in.

After the negotiation with Japan ended, China won the final victory and gained huge benefits from Japan. This made the people of the country fall into joy. Everything is developing for the better. Now, the people of the country are eager to

What we are waiting for is probably the new emperor's accession to the throne. The cabinet has already determined the specific time.

and announced it. Wang Yuze will ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor on September 18 this year and establish a new empire. The first phase of the transformation of Beijing must be completed before September 18. This makes construction sites everywhere

We were working overtime, and if we weren't afraid of disturbing the people, we might have switched to two shifts day and night.

Wang Yuze also arrived in Beijing with his family and various departments in western Sichuan in early July. His second daughter and second son were both born. The third wife Zhou Rui gave birth to a daughter for him, named Wang Zitong, and the fourth wife

Yuying gave birth to a son for him, named Wang Zilin.

After arriving in Beijing, Wang Yuze did not live in the Forbidden City, but in a newly built palace. After overthrowing the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Wang Yuze privately invested tens of millions to build an occupying palace next to the Forbidden City on the South China Sea and Zhonghai Sea.

The palace, which covers hundreds of acres of land, encompasses the entire South China Sea and a small half of the Central China Sea. Although, the cabinet recommended that he live in the Forbidden City.

Yes, after all, it has been the symbol of the emperor for hundreds of years. But Wang Yuze refused. The Forbidden City has been built for hundreds of years. I don’t know how many emperors have lived there. It is hot in summer and cold in winter. What’s good about it.

On the contrary, the Xinhua Palace he funded and built not only has Chinese-style pavilions and pavilions, but also Western-style villas and mansions. The combination of Chinese and Western styles makes it more suitable for living.

As for the Forbidden City and the Summer Palace, they are all opened to the outside world and the fees collected are used to maintain the ancient buildings in Beijing. This caused a sensation in Beijing and even the country. The Forbidden City is the residence of the emperor! Now it is open to ordinary people.

, even though the ticket price is as high as one yuan, people still flock to it. Many foreigners even come to Beijing specifically to pay homage to the residences of past emperors, which has given China's tourism industry an opportunity to develop.

After all departments moved to Beijing, they have begun to officially operate. Now, the entire China is under the control of the Western Sichuan Army, and social reforms are also proceeding in an orderly manner. With Western Sichuan's victory over the Japanese, the

After the extremely favorable treaty, Western Sichuan became even more popular, and most people already regarded Western Sichuan as Zhengshuo.

However, there are still some people who are foolishly loyal to the Manchus and scold Western Sichuan as bandits. Wang Yuze is a rebellious minister who refuses to cut off the pig tail on his head. Wang Yuze does not pay much attention to these people. As long as they don't

If they take practical actions and do not participate in rebellion and other activities that endanger society, they will destroy themselves! But once they cause harm to society and the country, Wang Yuze will suppress it mercilessly. These days

Since the 19th century, many Manchu loyalists have been brutally suppressed due to riots. However, the vast majority of the Chinese people still very much agree with Western Sichuan taking over the central government and Wang Yuze ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor. The relationship between Western Sichuan and Wang Yuze

The foundation of rule is already very solid and cannot be shaken by anyone. Unless it fails in a foreign war, otherwise, those with evil intentions will never have a chance.

There are two conference rooms in Xinhua Palace, both located on the South China Sea. One is a large conference room that can accommodate hundreds of people, and the other is a small conference room that can only accommodate a few dozen people at most. When Wang Yuze arrived in Beijing, most of them summoned military and political officials

At the top level, meetings are held in small conference rooms or his study.

Today is already July 18th, and there are still two months before Wang Yuze ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor. All the military leaders of the Western Sichuan Army have rushed here. On the one hand, they will make adjustments to the next step of the Western Sichuan Army.

, the personnel who served with merit in the last war will also be promoted.

Wang Yuze sat at the top of the long table in the conference room. On both sides of him were Chief of Staff Xiong Wu, Deputy Chief of Staff Cai Yun, Minister of Defense Jiang Xingguo and Minister of Navy Zhang Cheng.

Next, there are the top brass of the army and navy. However, there are only a few people in the navy, and most of them are generals from the army. They have golden epaulettes and look like shining generals.

"Everyone, in the last war, thanks to the sacrifice of everyone and the soldiers, we were able to defeat the Japanese and achieve brilliant results. However, we cannot be proud of this. The empire is about to be established, but we still have to face a large number of challenges.

The enemy and the army especially cannot slack off. Otherwise

, will pose a great threat to the security of the empire. As we all know, the world has been almost divided up by the Western powers. If China wants to rise, if it wants to avoid becoming a piece of meat on the agenda of the great powers, it can only catch up.

Especially in terms of the military, it is even more important to catch up with the great powers so that we can

Let our Chinese nation have a place on the world stage!" Wang Yuze said solemnly. After defeating Japan and achieving great results, an atmosphere of arrogance and extravagance inevitably emerged in the army, which made Wang Yuze very worried.

I also take this opportunity today

, to sound the alarm for everyone. In addition, the Military Justice Division of the General Staff Headquarters has also taken action and launched a severe crackdown on these behaviors. In the past month, more than ten generals and colonels have had to retire because of this incident.

, which made the military generals a little frightened.

The participants in the meeting were all chief officers of various units of the Western Sichuan Army. When they heard Wang Yuze emphasize this aspect again, they couldn't help but pay attention to this aspect, for fear that they would fall into trouble in these aspects.

"Now, Minister Jiang will announce the promotion list this time. Everyone is welcome!" Wang Yuze said at last.

There was warm applause in the conference room.

"In view of everyone's performance in this war, the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff Headquarters discussed and consulted with the commander-in-chief and formulated a promotion list for this time. Xiong Wu, Chief of Staff of the General Staff Headquarters, was promoted to Army General. Cai

Yun, deputy chief of staff, was promoted to Army General. Jiang Xingguo, Minister of Defense, was promoted to Army General. Zhao Bowen, commander of the Second Cavalry Corps, was promoted to Army General.

General. Dong Hanfei, deputy commander of the teaching division, was promoted to lieutenant general. Liu Zhiye, commander of the First Cavalry Corps, was promoted to lieutenant general. Zhou Shun, commander of the first division, was promoted to lieutenant general. Yang Guoxing, commander of the third division

, was promoted to Army Lieutenant General. Cheng Anguo, Commander of the 4th Division, was promoted to Army Lieutenant General. Lu Chengzhi, Commander of the 5th Division, was promoted to Army Lieutenant General. Lin Chengye, Commander of the 7th Division, was promoted to Army Lieutenant General.

Army Lieutenant General. Chen Wenjun, commander of the 8th Division, was promoted to Army Lieutenant General. Gao Chang, commander of the 11th Division, was promoted to Army Lieutenant General. Su Hongguang, commander of the 22nd Division, was promoted to Army Lieutenant General. Du Qizheng,

Commander of the 23rd Division, promoted to lieutenant general of the army. Regarding the Navy, Minister Zhang Cheng was promoted to admiral. Deng Shichang, commander of the fleet, was promoted to admiral. Li Dingxin, chief of staff of the fleet

, was promoted to Vice Admiral. Wu Dezhang, Director of the Equipment Department of the Navy, was promoted to Vice Admiral. Ye Longxiang, Director of the Munitions Department of the Navy, was promoted to Vice Admiral. Wei Han, Director of Shipbuilding of the Navy, was promoted to Vice Admiral.

." Minister of National Defense Jiang Xingguo read one after another. These are the lists of people who have been promoted to lieutenant general and above. As for the list of major generals, the Ministry of National Defense will decide separately next.

Those who have been promoted are naturally full of joy. Those who have not been promoted are very envious. However, this promotion is entirely based on everyone's achievements in the war. Even if

I was not promoted and no one had any objections.

"Let us congratulate the generals who have been promoted and hope that they will continue to work hard. As long as they sacrifice their lives on the battlefield and protect their families and country, I, Wang Yuze, will definitely not be stingy with his official position!" Wang Yuze said.

Warm applause erupted once again in the conference room. Although Wang Yuze has not been the commander-in-chief for a long time and is about to become the emperor of the empire, everyone has seen what Wang Yuze has done over the years. Everyone can be sure that

, China, under the leadership of Wang Yuze, will definitely

It will be lifted quickly. In this process, war will inevitably break out with surrounding countries and even Western powers. This is the best opportunity for them as soldiers. This time, they have not accumulated enough military exploits and cannot be promoted.

It doesn't mean they won't have a chance next time.

"In addition, the military structure will be reformed. The General Staff Headquarters will be changed to the General Staff Headquarters, with General Xiong Wu as the Chief of Staff. The Army Department will be established, with General Cai Yun as the head. The Army Department will consist of the Operations Department, the Training Department, and the Equipment Department.

Department and Logistics Department. The resignation of the chiefs of each department will be announced next. The war has come to an end now. Our army has now expanded to one instructor, five

Thirteen infantry divisions, two cavalry corps and two heavy artillery brigades. In order to facilitate the management of the army, it will be divided into eight different military regions according to different defense areas, and will be commanded by the commander of the military region. During wartime, each military region

The army and the newly mobilized troops will be reorganized into several group armies and serve on the battlefield. Next, Chief of General Staff Xiong Wu will announce the division arrangements of each military region!" Wang Yuze said.
