Beiyang reactionaries

The procedures that should be followed still have to be followed, and the respect that should be given still needs to be given.

"it is good."

Wang Chonghui still has a good impression of Duan Xun, a warlord.Unlike other warlords, they are very rude and don't understand procedures.

"Then let me talk about the second thing. Prime Minister, the government has appointed Zhang Zuolin as the military governor of Fengtian and removed him from the position of tour envoy in the three eastern provinces, but his troops are still circling several major cities in Jilin. Shouldn't he be ordered to immediately Withdraw Jilin's troops and reprimand him."

"should."

Wang Chonghui nodded.

This is the matter of Duan Xun and Zhang Zuolin, and Duan Xun has a righteous name, so the request is very reasonable and should be agreed.Before, Duan Xun had no energy and no power to manage.

But now it's different.

Now that Duan Xun has become the deputy prime minister of the cabinet, he will never let Zhang Zuolin continue to control several cities in Jilin.If Zhang Zuolin wanted to go to war, Duan Xun would not be afraid.

Duan Xun's troops are currently facing Fengtian. If Zhang Zuolin does not withdraw from Jilin, Duan Xun will definitely go to war.At that time, even Japan will have nothing to say.

"The third thing, Prime Minister, should we set up a special resource department to govern the country's resources. Now the country's resource exploitation is very chaotic, without any clear regulations. Should we make statistics on the country's resources, especially Those mines."

This Wang Chonghui didn't dare to answer casually.

Because Duan Xun wants to add a department, this is not a small matter.So Wang Chonghui said: "General Duan can make a report and submit it to the Congress for discussion."

"it is good."

Duan Xun didn't bother.

Not just a resource department, Duan Xun will continue to add various departments in the future.The current Beijing government has too few departments, and one department is too wide-ranging to exercise its power properly.

Now Duan Xun just wants to see the various forces in Beijing, so he brings up this issue.There are many things involved in setting up a department.There will be all kinds of forces jumping out.

"The fourth thing is the issue of bandit suppression. Prime Minister, banditry has seriously affected local stability and the safety of the people. I hope the cabinet will pass the issue of bandit suppression and launch a one-year campaign to suppress bandits throughout China."

"What about it?"

"If the prime minister thinks that a military operation against bandits should be launched, then the Ministry of War will immediately make a plan to suppress bandits and hand it over to the cabinet."

"can."

Wang Chonghui nodded immediately.

Originally, Wang Chonghui thought that what Duan Xun had to do in the cabinet this time was some personnel requirements.For example, give some official positions to one's own people and increase control over the cabinet.But until now, all of Duan Xun's proposals were for work, and he didn't see any selfishness.

But Duan Xun smiled.

Wang Chonghui is indeed a literati and doesn't understand politics.The reason why Duan Xun wants to suppress the bandits is not only to have the idea of ​​​​really suppressing the bandits, but also to get the support of the people, and another idea is to rectify the army.

Reorganizing an army is not easy.

And it's much easier if there is a war.It is much easier to reorganize the various troops in the name of war than to reorganize the troops directly.Duan Xun wants to use the name of bandit suppression to tear apart Cao Kun's troops and reorganize them individually.

But this kind of thing, if it is a shrewd person, it will definitely know.But Wang Chonghui didn't notice it at all, and nodded happily.

"The fifth thing is the issue of the Middle East Railway. Since the Russian Civil War, the management of the Middle East Railway has become chaotic. However, Lenin, the leader of Soviet Russia, has issued two consecutive statements, stating that Soviet Russia will completely cancel the contract with my country. In this case, it is justifiable to take back the Middle East Railway. Prime Minister, I hope the cabinet will approve that the troops in the Northeast will directly take over the Middle East Railway.”

"General Duan, is there no problem?"

Wang Chonghui asked Duan Xun in a low voice.

Duan Xun understood what Wang Chonghui meant.Wang Chonghui also worked as a diplomat before, and he understands that the Middle East Railway can be taken back by a police station.The question is how to contact Russia in the future after taking it back.

Wang Chonghui was asking Duan Xun whether the withdrawal of the Middle East Railway would cause conflicts with Russia in the future.

So Duan Xun said easily: "There won't be any problems."

"it is good."

Of course Wang Chonghui was happy.

He is just an ordinary, educated and educated scholar. He got involved in politics under such a special environment as the end of Qing Dynasty and the beginning of Republic of China, and unexpectedly became the prime minister of the cabinet.Therefore, Wang Chonghui's feelings are very simple, and he just hopes that China will be strong.If the Middle East Railway can be taken back, it is really a good thing.

So of course Wang Chonghui supported it.

"General Duan, I support the recovery of the Middle East Railway."

"The Prime Minister is wise."

Having said that, Duan Xuncai said: "Prime Minister, I have finished the proposal I want to talk about today. Let others continue talking."

It's all about things.

Wang Chonghui couldn't help but look at Duan Xun again. Could it be that Duan Xun is really a warlord who "dedicates himself to the public"?It was completely different from what I thought, Duan Xun discussed national affairs throughout the meeting, and did not talk about power struggles.

Very surprised.

How did Wang Chonghui know that Duan Xun is not in a hurry now.Beijing's military and police departments are in the hands of Duan Xun, and Beijing cannot escape.What Duan Xun needs to do now is to stabilize, first look at the various forces in Beijing.

Then slowly gather power.

"Prime Minister, Premier Duan, Premier Dai, let me say something on behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

305 Cabinet meeting 3

"Then I will make suggestions on behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

After Duan Xun finished speaking, Yan Huiqing spoke immediately.

Duan Xun immediately looked at Yan Huiqing.This is a real diplomatic talent. After returning from studying in the United States, he has been in the diplomatic field.He has traveled to many countries. When the Republic of China was first established, he served as the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Beijing government.Including the Paris Peace Conference, he also participated in the Paris Peace Conference as a delegation consultant.

Although he is not as famous as Wu Tingfang, Tang Shaoyi, or even Gu Weijun, he is definitely a top talent.He is very familiar with European and American countries, because he has served as ambassadors in European and American countries for many years.

In the past two years, the Beijing government has been in turmoil, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has also frequently changed personnel.Yan Huiqing served as the Minister of Foreign Affairs not long after returning to China.Duan Xun entered Beijing this time with the intention of taking down the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

But after thinking about it carefully, he didn't want to hand over the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the pro-Japanese Wang Yitang, so he didn't move the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"Go ahead."

Compared to "Qiu Ba" like Duan Xun, Wang Chonghui prefers American talents like Yan Huiqing, because they are all of the same kind.So Wang Chonghui smiled and asked Yan Huiqing to speak.Yan Huiqing looked at Wang Chonghui, then at Duan Xun, and said, "Prime Minister, Premier Duan, Premier Dai, I think we should actively contact the newly born Soviet Russia."

Listening to Yan Huiqing's words, Duan Xun immediately regained his spirits.

Leaning forward slightly, looking at Yan Huiqing, he said directly: "President Yan, tell me more specifically."

really interested.

Duan Xun has long been in contact with Soviet Russia through various channels, but at that time Duan Xun was only a local force, so there were many unfavorable factors in contact with Soviet Russia.Now that he has come to Beijing, Duan Xun has been thinking about how to contact Soviet Russia before entering Beijing.Previously, Duan Xun only contacted the Far Eastern Republic as a border defense supervisor. If he only contacted Soviet Russia, he still needed to go through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
