"arrive."

"Sichuan has been fighting for the past few years, and the Chuanjiang Navy exists in name only. So I plan to reorganize the Chuanjiang Navy. You must find the talents you need as soon as possible. Then give the governor's office the ships, personnel, and weapons that the Chuanjiang Navy needs. Report. I will approve it for you after reading it.”

"Yes."

Duan Xun interjected to sum it up.

"Duan Yong."

"arrive."

"Since the establishment of the Armed Police Force, you have only one task, and that is to suppress bandits. The task of your First Brigade of the Armed Police Army in the next few months is to suppress bandits. Especially in Chengdu, Chongqing, Ziliujing, Neijiang, Luzhou, The traffic in this area of ​​Syria must be smooth, and bandits are not allowed to operate in this area. The specific plan will be released soon."

"Yes."

Duan Xun entered Chengdu, but it is very difficult to completely control Sichuan.Sichuan is a place with complex ethnic groups and inconvenient transportation, making it difficult to manage effectively.Duan Xun is not too greedy, as long as Chengdu, Chongqing, Neijiang, Xuzhou, and Luzhou are the most developed places in Sichuan, they should be controlled first, and other places can only take their time.

After completing the appointment of the armed police force, Duan Xun continued: "I plan to merge all the police departments in Sichuan to form a Sichuan Police Department. Appoint Yang Wei as the director of the Sichuan Police Department and concurrently as the chief of the Chengdu Police Department."

"Yes."

In fact, Yang Wei has already started working in this area, but this is Duan Xun's official appointment.There were several police-related departments in Sichuan before, and Duan Xun thought it was troublesome to merge them all.After all, many of those departments are the result of games between various forces.In order to appease the forces of all parties, a lot of departments have been set up, but in fact, they are useless.There are too many police departments, but instead they talk about each other and don't do any serious business.Now is the time to merge them all.

"Yu Peidi."

"arrive."

"Appoint Yu Peidi as the deputy director of the Sichuan Police Department and concurrently the director of the Sichuan Narcotics Division."

"Yes."

"Brother Hua Wei (Yu Peidi), drug control is more special than other police officers. Therefore, I will transfer a regiment to your Narcotics Division soon, and it will become the anti-drug police force of the Narcotics Division. From now on, the anti-drug police will be under the command of your Narcotics Division. "

"Yes."

Greatly enhancing the strength of the police department is also a way to control Sichuan.

These people are appointed in this way, but then Duan Xun stood up, came to Zhu Zhihong again and said: "Uncle, you will set up a police academy in the future, and you will transfer police officers from the whole province to train in rotation, you can't just serve in the police academy I see how you are also the deputy director of the Police Department?"

Facing Zhu Zhihong and Duan Xun, his tone was completely negotiating.

Zhu Zhihong looked up at Duan Xun, nodded without any objection, and said, "As long as it is beneficial to work, I agree."

"Uncle Xie supports it. Well, regarding the specific establishment of the Sichuan Police Department, the Police Department will be responsible for it after the meeting. After the discussion is over, give the provincial government a document on the establishment of the organization and the required funds."

"Yes."

Yang Wei nodded.

Yang Wei is very clear about Duan Xun's thoughts.

Duan Xun not only stripped off the logistics of the army, but also stripped off the logistics of various government departments.In the future, the government's finances will be managed by the financial department, and the military's logistics will be managed by the military's logistics department.

For such an important department as the police, the logistics of course cannot be the responsibility of the police department itself.

"Yang Wei, Shulao, Yu Peidi, Duan Yong, and Tang Shizun will stay, and the others will be dismissed."

"Yes."

74 Sichuan Police Conference 3

"Leave a few because there is an urgent matter."

"General, what is it?"

Of course Yang Wei understood what Duan Xun was talking about.But at this time, I have to cooperate with Duan Xun, and I can't let Duan Xun sing a one-man show alone.Yang Wei is used to calling Duan Xun "General", so he also calls Duan Xun "General" on such occasions.

"Everyone knows. The complete victory of the war to protect the country and the failure of Yuan Xiangcheng's restoration should have been a great event to be thankful for."

Listening to Duan Xun's words, both Zhu Zhihong and Yu Peidi felt uncomfortable.Who doesn't know that the main force of the National Defense Army this time is the First Army of the Yunnan Army led by Cai E.But this army suffered a huge defeat in Sichuan.

Who made this up.

Isn't it Duan Xun who is talking eloquently in front of him.

Duan Xun led his 29th mixed brigade to fight Cai E's troops with huge losses.Especially the defeat in the Battle of Naxi, it was a shame for Cai E to leave Naxi in the end.After all, in order to leave Naxi, Cai E left all the heavy weapons of his army to Duan Xun, and also sent more than 2000 rifles.

Everyone even doubted for a while whether Duan Xun was a staunch royalist.Because the best performer in the entire War to Protect the Country was Duan Xun.If it weren't for Duan Xun, the situation in Sichuan would definitely be corrupt.

However, Duan Xun ignored them and continued: "But the Yunnan Army and the Guizhou Army entered Sichuan, and because of insufficient military expenses, they sold opium on a large scale. As a result, southern Sichuan, including eastern Sichuan, is flooded with opium. More importantly, with the After the soil flooded in Sichuan, some people in Sichuan saw that opium was making money, and they might start growing opium next year. Opium is harmful to the country and the people. When the Republic of China was founded, everyone had a consensus that the opium trade must be banned. The laws of the Republic of China stipulated that the opium business was illegal. If we Sichuan people see that opium trading is easy to make money, and then follow Yunnan and Guizhou to plant opium, our great land of abundance in Sichuan may become a hell on earth.”

When it comes to opium, everyone is silent.

The same is true for Zhu Zhihong and Yu Peidi.

The National Defense Army sells opium, and there are even a large number of opium merchants behind the National Defense Army's attack. This is something that no one can deny.Some time ago, Duan Xun mobilized many newspapers to criticize Cai E's National Defense Army, describing Cai E as an opium dealer.In fact, Cai E's National Defense Army was a little wronged along the way.

why?

Because Cai E's National Defense Army did not fight well, they have been wandering around southern Sichuan and have not been able to enter the wealthy areas of Sichuan.So in fact, apart from the smuggled ones, not many Yunnan soils came in with Cai E's National Guard Army.Many opium merchants who followed Cai E's National Defense Army into Sichuan suffered miserably.Because Cai E's troops were not progressing smoothly, a large number of opium merchants who followed Cai E failed to clean up the opium in their hands, and finally had to sell it at a low price.

Instead, the opium merchants who followed other troops made a fortune.

Especially the opium merchants who followed Li Liejun's Second Army of the National Defense Army made a lot of money.After all, Li Liejun's Second Army of the National Defense Army first entered Guangxi, and then entered Guangdong with Lu Rongting's troops.

That's Guangdong.

In the past, selling opium had to go through Guangxi, and the local army had to be bribed, and those checkpoints had to be passed, which cost too much money.But this time they set off with Li Liejun's Second Army of the National Defense Army, and no one collected money along the way.

They entered Guangdong, sold opium wantonly, and earned an unknown amount of money.Moreover, after these opium merchants traveled the road of Guangxi, they not only found a market in Guangdong, but also opened up the road of Guangxi.It can allow them to continuously sell Yunnan soil to Guangdong.

No one can deny the fact that the National Defense Army sells opium.Zhu Zhihong is a very upright person. Although he supports the National Defense Movement, he can't say anything else about this matter.Because what Duan Xun said was generally correct.And Zhu Zhihong was really worried.

What if people in Sichuan really grow opium like Yunnan and Guizhou?

That's a big deal.

Due to geographical reasons in Sichuan, it is difficult for foreign materials to enter Sichuan.So Sichuan has to be self-sufficient in many ways.Fortunately, Sichuan has been a land of abundance since ancient times, with large plains and excellent agriculture.

However, if opium is grown in these good places, it will greatly hit Sichuan's agriculture.

"So I have an idea. That is to promulgate a decree that the opening of opium dens, the trading of opium, and the cultivation of opium are not allowed in the whole province of Sichuan. Anyone who violates these will be arrested."

"General, this is a good thing."

Yang Wei immediately agreed with Duan Xun.

This matter was originally suggested to Duan Xun by himself, so Yang Wei said: "General, opium is a thing that harms the country and the people. It should not be allowed to circulate. There are many opium merchants in Sichuan. If we don't stop it, there will be big troubles." Yes. Once our farmland in Sichuan starts to grow opium, the consequences will be disastrous."
