New Warlords 1909

In 1908, Pelliot, a French archaeologist proficient in Sinology, rushed from Dihua to Dunhuang immediately after learning that ancient manuscripts had been found in Mogao Grottoes.He chose in the cave for three weeks.In the end, at the cost of 600 taels of silver, more than 1 dunhuang documents, which can be called the essence, were acquired, and most of them were later collected by the National Library of France.

In 1909, Pelliot showed several Dunhuang rare books to some scholars in Beijing, which immediately attracted the attention of the academic circle.They wrote to the Ministry of Education of the Qing Dynasty, asking the local governments of Gansu and Dunhuang to immediately count the documents in the scripture cave and transport them to Beijing.The Qing court appointed Gansu chief envoy He Yansheng to be responsible for the escort.But before the inventory was taken, Wang Yuanlu had already hidden some of the cultural relics, and many were lost along the way. After arriving in Beijing, He Yansheng and his relatives and friends snatched some of them themselves.As a result, of the more than 1900 documents found in the Buddhist scripture cave in 5, only 8757 were left in the Jingshi Library.

Throughout modern times, in addition to the division of cultural relics from the Buddhist scripture cave, Dunhuang murals and statues also suffered huge losses. Later, all murals from the Tang and Song Dynasties were no longer in Dunhuang.Pelliot and later Harvard University Langdon Warner successively used adhesive tape to stick a large number of valuable murals, and sometimes even only removed a small piece of images in the murals, which seriously damaged the integrity of the murals.

Regardless of the cost, Hua Fei impulsively marched into the Forbidden City to protect the cultural relics in the palace from being stolen by the eunuchs and maids. What he was protecting was not just a piece of cultural relic, but also the root of Chinese culture, the inheritance of culture, and history. The most precious wealth left to future generations.These wealth cannot be measured with more money.

But history always creates new things through destruction, and continues to build new things in the subsequent destruction.Some of the new builds inherit some elements from before the destruction of the culture, while others of the destruction, destroy it forever.What is destroyed is not only history, but the memory of civilizations and the wealth of the entire human race.This is the wealth of civilization. In the eyes of pirate-like Western countries, they are just wealth that can be exchanged for gold coins, and they plunder, plunder, and plunder!

Listening to the enthusiastic introduction of the bunch, Hua Fei's heart was pricked by the needle.If the people of the country are bullied and killed by foreigners, it will damage the dignity of the country and the current real interests.The ongoing trafficking and plundering of cultural relics is a kind of soul excavation and eternal benefit damage. How can people remain indifferent?

This is my fault, this is my responsibility!While Hua Fei blamed himself deeply in his heart, he appeared more interested on the surface.After inadvertently revealing his financial strength, the man unsuspectingly took him to a powerful antique shop.His lack of vigilance is also due to the fact that such transactions are almost public, and the government's management of this is very limited.And whoever runs this kind of business, whose family behind the characters will be ordinary people?There is no one who is not a big shot with hands and eyes.

An antique shop called Wanbaozhai was doing a brisk business. As soon as they entered the shop, they saw two foreigners leaving contentedly.Seeing Hua Fei, especially the guards behind Hua Fei, the shopkeeper hesitated for a while.But after thinking about it for a while, he still welcomed Hua Fei to the second floor.

Hua Fei didn't show anything special. He chose two pretty good calligraphy and paintings in the store, but chatted for a full hour.However, the shopkeeper was very vigilant, and there was basically not much useful information in his words.But during this hour, Hua Fei saw at least ten foreigners coming in and out of the shop, not counting other domestic customers, the foreign devils alone might have bought ten cultural relics from a shop within an hour.

It wasn't until Hua Fei left that the shopkeeper called the head, and said with eyes full of thought, "Big head, where did you meet this man?"

The place name that Datou said was nothing special, and the shopkeeper frowned slightly, "This person is a bit weird, remember, in the future, don't attract people with guards like this to the store. Don't be afraid of anything else, attract the National Defense Forces." Army man, there is something wrong."

"Isn't it just the soldiers who lead the soldiers? They don't need to eat? They don't need to play with women anymore? As long as it's not those Hua family troops, the problem is not very big!"

"How do you know he's not the Hua Family Army!" The shopkeeper said angrily, immediately making the man speechless.

But the shopkeeper and the leader would never have imagined that the guests they received today were not only soldiers of the Hua Family Army, but also the founder, spiritual leader, and actual leader of the Hua Family Army, Hua Fei!

Hua Fei returned to his residence with a livid face, putting aside all movie plans and TV plans for the time being, and didn't even bother to watch the latest report that had been sent from Shanghai.As soon as Hua Fei entered the room, he closed the door, turned on the light and wrote vigorously. Until midnight, Qi Haichen still saw the bright lights in Hua Fei's room.Sun Ban, who had followed Hua Fei for a long time, sighed, "Every time the commander encounters something when he goes out, he will always be like this when he comes back. You said that the country is so big, how can the commander do everything by himself? Too many burdens!"

Qi Haichen didn't speak, and said after a while, "Madam has been in America for a long time. I thought that the president would take Ms. Zhu to the mansion in Shanghai, so that she could have a concubine room. But I never thought that Ms. Zhu was so determined to Buddha, hey! You said the president Working so hard without a woman to take care of me, I really worry about the president!"

Sun Ban seemed to agree with Qi Haichen's words very much, "The people in the presidential palace and the staff have mentioned countless times that the commander should be equipped with a staff member. Even if you don't send a woman, you can send a careful little soldier. But the commander is worried about this. Follow the example above, ruin the ethos of the army, strictly refuse, what do you say!"

"Hey..." Qi Haichen could only sigh.

"Come on!" Hua Fei's voice came from the room, and Qi Haichen and Sun Ban rushed over immediately. They knew that Hua Fei's work might finally be finished.

"Send this draft to the Nanjing office, let them discuss it overnight, and hand over the detailed copy to me for review tomorrow morning. Hurry, speed!"

Qi Haichen took Hua Fei's manuscript and did not leave immediately, but said in a low voice, "President, you should wash up and get ready to rest! Do you want the kitchen to prepare some supper?"

"Oh!" Hua Fei rubbed his eyes, and said casually, "Then get some food, bring the water, and I will wash it myself. Go to sleep when you are done, and I will read some documents, and then I Sleep, don't wait!"

Qi Haichen seemed to want to say something more, but in the end he backed down softly, and while letting Sun Ban arrange the kitchen, he rushed to the telegraph room.

The manuscript that Hua Fei drove out overnight was nothing but the relevant regulations on the protection of cultural relics.Hua Fei thought a lot, but he didn't dare to say how correct and perfect his ideas were. That's why he needed the opinions of the think tanks in the Cabinet Office, and finally finalized them in the form of law.

First of all, Hua Fei decided to strengthen customs monitoring and maritime inspections, strictly prohibit all cultural relics from leaving the country, and pass a law as soon as possible. Anyone who carries smuggled cultural relics out of the country can be dealt with as a violation of the Chinese Cultural Relics Smuggling Law. , to deter some criminals.

At the same time, a Cultural Relics Management Bureau directly under the Presidential Palace was established to investigate, protect and manage all historical and cultural relics across the country, and formulate relevant protection levels.In view of the current lack of protection of many cultural relics facilities in China, for places with very high cultural value, such as Dunhuang and other places, armed police were immediately stationed to blockade and protect them.Due to the severe shortage and overdraft of the government's finances, the start-up funds of the Cultural Relics Management Bureau are entirely Hua Fei's personal expenditures, and they are used in the name of personal donations.

……

308 The war is far from over

A more detailed management method is to prohibit the illegal trading of cultural relics and antiques.And the legalization registration of national cultural relics has been introduced. All privately owned collections must be legally registered within the specified time limit, and the government protects the privacy of cultural relics in private collections.Unregistered cultural relics that exceed the time limit are all regarded as illegal possession. Not only can they not be circulated in the domestic market, but the possession of illegal cultural relics itself is a violation of the law and requires legal responsibility.

At the same time, regulate the domestic cultural relics trading market.All cultural relics collections with legal identity registration can be auctioned at qualified auction houses.Most cultural relics collections can be freely traded, but any important cultural relics rated as first-class cultural relics cannot be auctioned to foreigners, let alone circulated abroad.

The workload is huge, especially the identification of cultural relics level, which is arduous and long-lasting.However, Hua Fei still decided to donate [-] million Singapore dollars from his private account to establish the China Cultural Relics Protection Association, and to open museums in the province to collect officially collected cultural relics.

The first step is to fully protect the national cultural relics protection areas, and start to increase the comprehensive protection of some emperor tombs, and vigorously publicize the awareness of cultural relics protection and the importance of protecting cultural relics, as well as the illegal nature of private collection of cultural relics, etc. .

The second step is to legalize the registration of cultural relics, followed by the level appraisal of cultural relics.All unidentified cultural relics that enter the auction link will be identified first, and other cultural relics will pass the primary selection, re-selection, and comprehensive selection.The complex links of the final identification are gradually sorted out year by year for the country's cultural treasure house.

The third step and the second step are carried out almost at the same time, to carry out a major rectification of the national cultural relics trading market, and to severely punish those who continue to engage in cultural relics sales and cultural relics smuggling.And submitted to the joint parliament to add a legal proposal, for the criminal activities of cultural relics theft and cultural relics smuggling out of the country, they will be punished according to their criminal behavior. Not only will all the family property be confiscated, but the death penalty will be even more merciless.

Although the crime of stealing and excavating cultural relics is not murder and arson, in Hua Fei's view, its nature is so bad and the harm it causes to the country is not easy to be a serious murder case.That is the killing of culture and the cutting off of the inheritance of civilization.For such a crime, it is not an exaggeration to implicate the Jiuzu.But today's society is not the same as before, so the manuscript written by Hua Fei himself, proposing to confiscate all family property and monitor the property and activities of the three generations of descendants, has almost harsh punishment methods.

The so-called disaster is less than three generations, but what Hua Fei has to do is, if you want to make a fortune by stealing national cultural relics, it is absolutely impossible.Even if you are not afraid of death, it is basically impossible to leave wealth to your children and grandchildren.Because not only you will be sentenced to death, but your children and grandchildren will also be monitored by the state.All property was confiscated.So that all your desperate thoughts will face the abyss of despair from the very beginning.

When the staff and think tanks of the First Cabinet in Nanjing received Hua Fei’s telegram and saw the most serious criminal law review case since the establishment of the new government, and it can even be said that Hua Fei took power, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. beyond everyone's imagination.

The Taiwan war has not yet completely ended, and the war in the East China Sea has not been completely extinguished. I thought that the president's attention should be on military issues at this moment, and the telegram sent should also be a decision made by relevant parties.The think tanks on duty are extremely prepared for various tasks, and they are even guessing what the president will do next, so they can prepare in advance.

However, what everyone was waiting for was a completely irrelevant manuscript. People were amazed that "the power of heaven is unpredictable". Even if the president is called the president, how is he different from the emperor?This thought is really elusive!

But no matter what everyone thinks, no matter whether they have followed Hua Fei for a long time or just recently joined the Cabinet Office think tank, they still have a deep understanding of the first criminal bill in the history of this dynasty and Hua Fei's rare large-scale manuscript recently. quickly attracted attention.No matter what the reason was, they could see from these two points that Hua Fei attached great importance to this matter.Those who served in the revolutionary army very early still vaguely remember the news that when Hua Fei was weak, he was stolen for the cultural relics of the Forbidden City.They even miraculously dispatched a regiment to directly control the Forbidden City, causing an uproar across the country.From today's perspective, the president who holds the highest power in the country has no reason not to pay attention to the country's cultural relics.

The young people in the cabinet office are working overtime, perfecting Hua Fei's manuscript in an all-round way, trying to send the detailed manuscript to Hua Fei for review before dawn.But just as everyone was busy and nervously looking through various legal materials, the second telegram from Beijing came again.

Xi Yuanli, the secretary-general of the office in charge, took the telegram and couldn't help thinking, this time it should be about the deployment of the war, at least he should have a preliminary opinion on the results of the naval battle in the East China Sea.Now the people are jubilant, and it seems that a victory has been won, but there is not much laughter in the entire joint command of the navy and air force in Shanghai.Some senior generals even called the office to ask how the commander-in-chief thought of the result, but how could Xi Yuanli and the others know.

But when Xi Yuanli opened the telegram, he almost wondered if the telegraph operator made a mistake. Is this really a new telegram from the President?Is it because the president stays up all night to do these two things?Could it be that Qi Haichen and the others borrowed...?No, there is absolutely no such possibility, but!What exactly happened here?

Hua Fei's second telegram is still different from the focus of most people in the current government. In this telegram, Hua Fei confessed two things.The first is to inform Galaxy Investment and Star Group to jointly invest in the acquisition of the most well-known domestic film company and set foot in the film industry.And notify the investment group in the United States, let them find a way to acquire a film company in the United States, and actively develop the film industry.Prepare for China's film technology and cultivate film talents.However, the acquisition of this film company should be done as concealed as possible, cut off from all their current capital, and operated independently!

The second is to inform the Academy of Sciences, especially Nikola Tesla's research team, to pay attention to the international technology tracking of the new vocabulary of television, and to carry out related research.If conditions permit, you can ask Nikola Tesla for advice and attract his interest.

Xi Yuanli had an impulse, and really wanted to call Beijing back to confirm whether Hua Fei meant it or not.However, he also has a certain understanding of Hua Fei. Thinking about it carefully, it may be difficult for others to tell, but it is really not the first time President Hua has made such a move.This time, Xi Yuanli was more sensitive, the contrast was so great.

The next day, the Shanghai Navy and Air Force Joint Headquarters still called back to Beijing again. This time the report was a little calmer, and it conducted a comprehensive analysis of the entire battle process.From the mistakes in combat intelligence to underestimating the enemy in the formulation of tactics to the inflexible use of wartime tactics, etc., they made a comprehensive and in-depth review, and actively made suggestions for handling. The leaders of the main headquarters asked for punishment!

When Hua Fei got up early in the morning, the first document he read was this report.The bright sunshine outside the window did not brighten Hua Fei's mood.While reading the report, he was even thinking about it.If I chose to stay in Shanghai, would such a situation not arise?Yesterday, Hua Fei diverted his attention and didn't want to think about this matter, so why didn't he dare to face the souls of those heroes who died in battle!Perhaps they should have been able to triumphantly!

Under Hua Fei's seemingly strong appearance, he actually has his fragility.He was even a little scared, he didn't know, if there was even the slightest accident in the Battle of the East China Sea, and the balance of victory only had to tilt slightly towards Japan, what would be the outcome now?The strength and elites of the navy and air force accumulated with great difficulty.Once destroyed?

It is only now that Hua Fei feels the price of this eternal death is really unbearable.

After a while, Hua Fei waved his hand and said to Qi Haichen, "Call back, agree to the report, and agree with their opinions. Appoint Lei Guangjiong as the first deputy commander of the navy, Wei Zihao as the second deputy commander, and Chen Shaokuan as the third deputy commander. The war in the East China Sea. Appoint Fang Cun as the first deputy commander of the Air Force, Zhang Huichang as the second deputy commander of the Air Force, and Chen Qingyun as the third deputy commander. In addition, Ren Mingkong was transferred from the military academy to the Air Force Staff as a trainee staff officer. Order Taiwan's The army, give up the storm tactics, can slow down the attack rhythm, and complete the strategy against Taiwan with the smallest loss!"

Qi Haichen was not surprised by the changes in the military leadership of the navy and air force. After all, the price paid for such a battle was too high, and as the supreme commander, he could hardly shirk his responsibility.Fortunately, the outcome of the war was not unacceptable to the Wehrmacht, so the ranks of the commanders have not changed yet, only the positions have been changed.Both Lei Guangjiong and Fang Cun are very qualified generals, but this Ren Mingkong is a general of the Beiyang Army, and he is extremely rebellious. He once shot down many fighter planes of the Air Force of the National Defense Forces in the battle against Beiyang.If he hadn't cherished talents and let him go to the Air Force Longteng Flight Academy to teach, he might still be imprisoned in a military prison.Such a person has no military achievements and no qualifications. Could it be that he can be transferred to the Air Force Staff just because he has taught at Longteng Academy for several years?That is an extremely important department. All major construction and combat decisions of the Air Force are closely related to the staff department.

This time Qi Haichen asked out loud, the longer he stayed by Hua Fei's side.He found that Hua Fei was never bored with his questions.On the contrary, if he didn't ask any questions for a while, Hua Fei would still ask him why he was fine recently.Qi Haichen knew that the president was being cultivated. Whether it was the guards or assistants around him, batch after batch of people had left. Most of them are now playing an important role in various aspects, and they can be regarded as Hua Fei's core direct line.

It's just that what no one knows in Qi Haichen's heart is that he is unwilling to leave here.Because staying with Hua Fei not only allows him to learn many things continuously, but also because he likes his current job very much.Apart from here, Qi Haichen really has no place he wants to go.So there are some questions that can be asked or not, Qi Haichen is willing to ask him.He grasped the rhythm of the questions, because he was worried that if one day he finished asking his questions, President Hua would send him out, and he didn't know what to do.

Hua Fei did not answer him with words, but brought a briefing to Qi Haichen.Qi Haichen opened it and saw that it was a military clipping. Most of the clippings contained opinions and ideas on the development and construction of the Air Force.Qi Haichen took a quick look and found that most of the articles were advocating the building of a powerful offensive independent air force.That is to say, the current development direction of the air force has made a serious mistake. The air force has gradually become a vassal of the army and navy. Not only is it gradually losing its independence, but what is more frightening is that the air force is losing its independent strategic awareness and thinking.

The authors of the articles in these briefings pointed out that the future direction of military construction should be based on the air force, and gradually explore the tactics and tactics that use the air force to determine the situation and outcome of wars.Give full play to the huge advantages of the air force, force the enemy to surrender, destroy the enemy's war potential, and finally achieve a war situation without deploying the army and navy or less dispatch of the army and navy.

In these articles, the author put forward the theory of large air force and air superiority, and even proposed that the success or failure of the air force determines the success or failure of an army, and the success or failure of an army is directly related to the survival of a country.

Although Qi Haichen didn't know much about military affairs, after reading these articles, he still couldn't help but sneer.From the perspective of a layman like Qi Haichen, no matter which country's military construction focus cannot be separated from the army, because this is the most fundamental core armed force.The Air Force can live without it, but the Army absolutely cannot.Without the army, can we count on aircraft to recover the lost ground in the Northeast?It's all air force, how much explosive do you need to blow up soldiers hiding in air defense bunkers.

Take another look at the author of these articles, Ren Mingkong.Qi Haichen was stunned.He didn't understand at all now, why did the president transfer such a person who was even a little unclear to the Air Force Staff?Could it be that the president also agrees with this person?

Hua Fei seemed to understand Qi Haichen's confusion, and took out a stack of letters from the drawer, put them on the table and patted them on the table, "These are all letters written by Ren Mingkong, all of which are his opinions on building a powerful offensive air force." Imagine. You must be wondering why I transferred him to the staff. After all, you know this person... even in Longteng Academy, his popularity is... a mess!"
