Beiyang reactionaries

"Then how to arrange Yang Zengxin."

Either hang high, or continue to use him.

What position should be given to Yang Zengxin?

"Let him go to Mongolia."

"Mongolia?"

"Yes. Yang Zengxin has very rich experience in dealing with frontier affairs. With the end of the Soviet Civil War, they will slowly begin to pay attention to the Far East. Although the Soviet Union will not have much strength in the Far East in a short period of time, it will definitely become more and more important in the future. The more we pay attention to this. There are still some historical issues between us and the Soviet Union that have not been resolved, and there may be some small conflicts in the future. With someone like Yang Zengxin who has rich experience in managing border provinces sitting in Mongolia, there should be a lot of border issues. benefit."

It can be said that Dai Kan has accumulated a lot of experience.

It's completely different from the Southwest.

At that time, his eyes were on the southwest, but now Dai Kan, as the first deputy prime minister, has considered all aspects.Even future issues have to be considered.

The Soviet Union, this is a behemoth.

As the vice premier of the Chinese government, Dai Kan understands the advantages of population, land and resources better than anyone else.How can China "beat" Japan so quickly.

Although many people say that God helped China, it was the earthquake that helped China.

That's right.

But before the earthquake, China was not at a disadvantage on the battlefield.And how can a country like China, which has been bullied by foreign powers all the year round, be able to fight Japan?

It is because China has a large population and a large territory, and there are many people who can be mobilized, and the overall strength grows rapidly.This is the difference between a big country and a small country.

The two sides develop together, as long as there are no major problems, the overall strength of the big country will eventually surpass that of the small country.Because big countries have advantages that small countries simply cannot match.

scale.

A large country has a large population, a large amount of land, and a large amount of resources. The result is a huge advantage in scale.This is not comparable to those small countries.

This is the case with the current Soviet Union.

The land is so vast and the population is about 1.4 million people.

It is a standard big country.

The civil war has just ended, as long as it starts to develop, it will definitely be a powerful country in the future.After all, Tsarist Russia, the predecessor of the Soviet Union, was known as the "European police" back then, and it was also a veteran imperialist country.

The Soviet Union and China still had a lot of unresolved issues in the Far East.

Especially territorial issues.

It's just that in the past few years, China needs to fight against Japan, and the Soviet Union needs to fight against Europe. Therefore, the two sides have huddled together for warmth in recent years, and have not discussed these disputes.But these disputes exist after all, and who can guarantee that there will be no conflict between the two sides in the future.

But Yang Zengxin has sufficient experience in Xinjiang and knows how to deal with the Soviet Union.Dai Kan thought it was appropriate for him to go to Mongolia and take charge of the border areas.

"I don't think it's appropriate."

Yang Yongtai spoke against Dai Kan.

Dai Kan glanced at Yang Yongtai, without any expression.Just quietly listening to what Yang Yongtai had to say.Yang Yongtai didn't care how Dai Kan treated him.

He said directly: "Prime Minister, Yang Zengxin has served as the governor of Xinjiang since the first year of the Republic of China. He has controlled Xinjiang's military and political affairs for 12 years. Regardless of his governance in Xinjiang, he has stabilized the situation in Xinjiang over the years and resisted The British and Russian forces still have a lot of credit for infiltrating Xinjiang. Especially during the Russian Civil War, a large number of refugees from Russia and Kazakhstan poured into Xinjiang, and Belarusian troops also poured into Xinjiang. And Yang Zengxin was able to survive in such a situation Under the circumstances, the preservation of Xinjiang should be said to be due to Sheji."

How should Yang Zengxin be evaluated?

Everyone has a different evaluation.

But at Yang Yongtai's level, when watching Yang Zengxin, he no longer pursues some small things about Yang Zengxin.In the process of controlling Xinjiang, Yang Zengxin used his outstanding political experience and skills to secretly execute many heroes of the [-] Revolution.But these things have become history, and Yang Yongtai will not pursue it.

On the contrary, Yang Yongtai looks at the whole.

Yang Zengxin has made great contributions to keeping and stabilizing Xinjiang.After the Revolution of [-], the whole country was in chaos, and wars were frequent in the Central Plains, which led to independent voices everywhere in China's frontiers.

Mongolia, Hulunbuir, Xinjiang, Tibet, and even Northeast China, as well as Yunnan, which was influenced by France, all have tendencies towards independence.

The situation in Xinjiang is also very dangerous.

As dangerous as Outer Mongolia.If you don't pay attention, Xinjiang will become another Outer Mongolia.

But Xinjiang kept it.

Yang Zengxin has made a lot of contributions here, so Yang Yongtai said that Yang Zengxin's contribution is in the country.

"Therefore, it is right to transfer this person to leave Xinjiang. Otherwise, any decision-making in Xinjiang in the future will be interfered with by him. But I am opposed to letting him go to Mongolia. This will make our cabinet too stingy, as if he was transferred to control Xinjiang. Same. Yang Zengxin is a vassal no matter how you say it. If he thinks that the cabinet is unfair to him, he will not work hard when he arrives in Mongolia, which will affect the stability of the border areas. So I firmly oppose Yang Zengxin’s going to Mongolia.”

"Then what do you think?"

"Transferred to Beijing. People like Yang Zengxin who are very familiar with frontier issues, who are very familiar with ethnic issues, and who have also governed in a province are very necessary talents for the cabinet. my country is a multi-ethnic country, and the frontier A country with complicated problems. People with practical experience like Yang Zengxin are very much needed to contribute to our country’s ethnic policy and border policy. Even the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I also think that such experienced talents are needed.”

"kindness."

Duan Xun nodded slightly.

Dai Kan and Yang Yongtai have different attitudes.

But it's not a big deal.The two of them have been fighting openly and secretly for some time. As long as they don't bring this kind of fighting into specific work, Duan Xun will never interfere.

Completely with one eye open and one eye closed.

Of course, if their struggles reached the point where their swords were on the verge of breaking out and affecting their work, then Duan Xun would have to make a choice.At least not now.

"What do you think?"

"Prime Minister, I also think it is more appropriate for Yang Zengxin to be transferred back to Beijing."

Jiang Hongyu, chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, spoke.

Said: "Yang Zengxin will be 60 years old next year. It is always not good to let him go to the strange Mongolia. The border areas are very hard. The economy there is not good, the customs are different from the Central Plains, and there are also very complicated ethnic issues. Eat There will be many problems with what you wear. So many people resist going to the border areas. But the border areas are very important, and there must be people guarding the border areas. Therefore, I think the government should give more rewards to the staff in the border areas. At this time, think more about the staff in the frontier areas. This is a measure to encourage frontier staff, and it will encourage more people to work in the frontier."

Duan Xun still agrees with Yang Yongtai and Jiang Hongyu's views.

Dai Kan's handling of Yang Zengxin was too arbitrary.

So Duan Xun said: "I also tend to transfer Yang Zengxin to Beijing. But if Yang Zengxin is transferred back, how to deal with the remaining situation in Xinjiang. Premier Dai, tell me."

After refuting Dai Kan's idea, Duan Xun also wanted to appease him.

So I asked Dai Kan for his idea.

Dai Kan didn't lose his temper just because his proposal was rejected.If that was the case, Dai Kan would not be able to reach his current position.Therefore, he was very calm and said: "I think Xinjiang's government work should be stable. You can ask Yang Zengxin for his opinion on who should be the governor of Xinjiang. He is more familiar with Xinjiang than any of us. As for the military , we should send about two divisions of troops into Xinjiang. There are many problems inside and outside Xinjiang, and they need to be heavily guarded."

"Two teachers?"
