Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    That's what happened.  \\\\After Song Qing left North Korea and returned to China, he recruited new soldiers and then moved closer to Ningxia from Shaanxi, but did not encounter any decent resistance along the way.  Song Qing only asked people to search the weapons from the Hui people's homes along the way, but when they entered the Yinchuan boundary, a Hui people used an old-fashioned matchlock gun to shoot Song Qing on his horse at close range. Song Qing was shot and fell from his horse.  Then the old troops of Wu Yi Division suddenly became jealous and carried out a massacre in the village. More than 200 people in the village, including children, died tragically.  Because Qin Ge made the radio public, he declared that he would send reporters to accompany the army. After all, it was Qin Ge's own newspaper that reported the matter.

    The report was reprinted by domestic newspapers, but Qin Ge was helpless. At this time, most newspapers were privately founded, and there were only a few government-run ones, unlike later generations.  And there are no laws regarding the media.  The issue of ethnic minorities is not a small one. In later generations, China has always been cautious in handling ethnic minority issues and tried its best to prevent the United States from using ethnic minority issues to cause division.

    "Do we want to implement ethnic minority autonomy?" Qin Ge frowned.  Thinking of ethnic minority autonomy, Qin Ge couldn't help but think of the United States. Even the United States itself doesn't know how many ethnic groups there are in the United States. Why doesn't the United States have ethnic problems?  There has been a serious problem of racial discrimination in the history of the United States because of the white people's own sense of superiority.  But later, this was no longer the case.  The policy of ethnic minority autonomy is not good. They are all Chinese and all Chinese nation, so why should they have any autonomy?

    ¡°We are all Chinese nation, Chinese nation, hey! We have it! It¡¯s hard to do without money!¡± Qin Ge¡¯s idea was to carry out compulsory education.

    Education can be described as a brainwashing process, and this is true for education in every country.  Of course, in addition to brainwashing, education also teaches you knowledge.  If you want to achieve national integration, education is the best way.  However, the country has a population of more than 400 million, and there are at least 70 to 80 million school-age children. Qin Ge cannot afford to spend money on compulsory education.  Education is non-compulsory. Children in rural areas definitely have no hope of going to school.  Moreover, Qin Ge¡¯s original plan was to carry out the industrial revolution first, and now he wanted to carry out compulsory education.  The budget is not enough.

    "You can't think of all the problems yourself, otherwise what's the point of having the cabinet?"  Qin Ge found Tang Shaoyi.

    Tang Shaoyi was flattered by the emperor's arrival, because she did not have a very outstanding performance in the conservative party.  But he was appointed as the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, which made Tang Shaoyi feel a lot of pressure for a while.

    Qin Ge said: "Shaochuan, how is the situation in North Korea?"

    There are currently two thousand people stationed in Pyongyang. Qin Ge is reluctant to part with North Korea's resources, but he can't find a reason to occupy it, so he can only station troops in North Korea as a suzerain.

    Tang Shaoyi used to be the Consul General in North Korea and was familiar with North Korean affairs. He said: "Concubine Min of the Korean royal family was killed by the Japanese, and Lord Dayuan was killed by the Russians. However, Lord Dayuan's son Li Xi is still alive now."

    "Oh? Isn't all the Korean royal family dead? Then what is Li Xi's attitude towards the empire?" The Japanese occupied it first.  Later, the Russians invaded. Qin Ge thought that all the Korean royal family should be dead, but he didn't expect that there were still people alive.

    "North Korea has been a vassal state since ancient times. The Manchu Qing Dynasty was incompetent and signed the Treaty of Shimonoseki. It gave up its status as a suzerain state, but first when the imperial power became strong, North Korea would naturally re-submit. Li Xi hoped to come to Beijing before the year to discuss surrender.  Things. "

    "Oh? Bangzi actually wants to rejoin the empire?" In later generations, in the era of network information, Qin Ge dealt with Bangzi.  Naturally, we have the same opinion as ordinary people. Bangzi is the best in the world, absolutely the best in the world.  Therefore, Qin Ge's view of Bangzi was that Bangzi would definitely fight for independence. Unexpectedly, Li Xi wanted to continue to be the Pan vassal of the empire.

    In fact, Li Xi does not want to continue to be a vassal state of China, but the state form does not allow it, and once North Korea is announced to be separated from the tribute system with China, what will happen if China comes over?  The Japanese and Russians were beaten until they cried bitterly. It will not be a matter of minutes to conquer North Korea!  And if they don¡¯t surrender to China, the great powers will not let go of the fat piece of North Korea!  Now that North Korea does not have any military power, seeking protection from China and then developing it is Li Xi's only choice.

    "That's good, it will make it easier for me to mine." Qin Ge said, and then started to talk about the purpose of his visit today.

    Tang Shaoyi smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you don't know much about the Hui people in the northwest. Those people often rebelled against the Qing Dynasty during the former Qing Dynasty. Massacres by the Qing army were also common. Don't worry too much. As for the emperor's plan to do something even though he has no money.  It is impossible to popularize education during the industrial revolution. If the customs are taken back and the tax revenue of each province is integrated, the government's annual revenue should be 150 million taels of silver. If the industrial revolution is to be carried out, it will definitely be achieved by government-run enterprises alone.  It is not enough. The emperor also knows this, so he asked the provincial officials to encourage businessmen to invest! Since businessmen can be encouraged to invest, it can naturally also encourage businessmen to run schools. It does not cost much to build a school.Money, as long as the emperor comes forward to advocate the following, people with capital will not care about that little money.  "

    "Encourage businessmen to run schools? Well, that's a good idea."

    At this time, Tang Shaoyi's secretary came in and said: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, and Minister of the General Staff Qin Erbao want to see the Emperor."

    Tang Shaoyi knew that Qin Ge managed the general affairs separately, so she said: "Your Majesty, do you want me to go out? It's very important for Staff Qin to come here."

    "No, although the military and political affairs are separated, those engaged in politics also need to know some information about the military."

    "yes."

    After Qin Erbao came in, he saluted Qin Ge first and then greeted Tang Shaoyi.  Then he said to Qin Ge: "Master, Mongolia has discovered the presence of the Russians." In fact, less than five minutes after Qin Ge left the Summer Palace, Qin Erbao rushed to the Summer Palace. After asking about Qin Ge's whereabouts, he came again  here.

    Qin Ge frowned. This was not good news. He thought that after taking over Vladivostok, Russia's Far East base, Nicholas II would calm down for a while. Unexpectedly, less than two months later, the Russian army actually launched an attack.  Came to Mongolia.  Thinking about Nicholas II's unrealistic ambitions, Qin Ge really wanted to drop an atomic bomb on St. Petersburg.  Originally, the strategic depth of Mongolia and the northwest was large enough, but now Russia has intervened.  It is even more difficult to achieve unification.

    "Are there any countermeasures?" Qin Ge asked.

    "I think we can ignore Mongolia and Xinjiang for now. These two places have huge populations. Although we have hundreds of thousands of troops, when placed in an area as large as Mongolia, they are like a drop of water in the sea. As long as the Russians and Mongolia are in chaos,  If the thieves deliberately avoid my large army, they will never be able to control the Mongolian region. It is better to let it go. The Russians are not good people, and the Mongolian people will not be too happy if they stay in the Mongolian region for a long time. "

    "You mean we withdraw. Then we sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and finally take advantage of it?"

    Qin Erbao nodded.

    Qin Ge said: "Shaochuan, what do you think?"

    Tang Shaoyi said: "I don't know much about military affairs. But what if the Mongols and the Russians can't fight?"

    Qin Erbao said: "We can wait until the empire prospers and raise troops to attack. Now that the empire has just been established, there is still a big gap compared with the great powers. However, I believe that under the leadership of the young master, the empire will soon catch up or even surpass  Great powers. The empire has a vast territory. Once it prospers, it will have to have a standing army of one million people!"

    "A standing army of one million! How much financial consumption this requires!" Tang Shaoyi said in surprise.

    Qin Ge smiled, when New China was founded.  The total strength of the People's Liberation Army reached 5.5 million, which increased to more than 6 million during the Korean War.  The empire is now infinitely better than when New China was founded. Few people can imagine the hardships faced when New China was founded.  The Kuomintang took away a large amount of money when they withdrew, and the amount of Chinese wealth that Japan plundered when it invaded China is even more incalculable.  Why was Japan able to have such a large navy during World War II?  Without the backing of China's resources.  Does Japan dare to clamor against the United States?  Even before he traveled through time, China still had a standing army of more than two million. Today, China's territory is infinitely larger than in later generations, and a standing army of one million is really not much.

    Qin Ge said: "Okay then, I'll do as you say, ignore Xinjiang and Mongolia for now. Let Li Niu go directly to Ningxia and Gansu to annihilate Dong Fuxiang."

    Qin Ge felt relieved after finding Tang Shaoyi.  However, those who participated in the massacre of Master Wu Yi must be severely punished.  Song Qing was injured and did not send a telegram back. The injury was obviously not serious, but Qin Ge sent a telegram to express his condolences as a disciple and also demanded severe punishment for the soldiers who massacred the Hui people.

    But Qin Ge felt relieved too early. In the past, the Qing army massacred the Hui people, but the news rarely spread. Unlike this time, it appeared in newspapers across the country.  The ethnic minority people in the southwest became restless after reading this report.  Some leaders of ethnic minorities convened scattered village owners and other people to discuss. Some people suggested that the current emperor is very young, not more than thirty years old, and they can send beautiful women from the tribe to marry the emperor to ensure the safety of the clan.  This method is unanimously recognized by everyone and is considered to be the best method, bar none.  During the previous dynasty, Mongolia maintained its in-law relationship with the royal family to ensure its status.

    "But no one knows what kind of woman the emperor likes.  Gao Jianqiang went to Guilin, Guangxi to find Liu Yongfu, who was in charge of Southwest China.

    It is a must to give gifts first. Chinese people usually give some gifts when they meet.

    Liu Yongfu took a sip of tea and said, "I don't know why Patriarch Gao came here today? But there is a beast in the mountains that hurts people?" There are many tigers and pythons in the southwest. Generally, if it is a tiger, the Miao people can handle it by themselves. Although Qin Ge ordered  Guns are prohibited, except in some areas, such as some mountainous areas and border areas.  Because of the mountainsThere are many wild animals, unlike later generations where there were not even a few tigers. The guns in the hands of the Miao people are all muzzle-loading guns used for hunting to prevent wild boars from attacking. Sometimes it is normal for wild boars to enter the village and hurt people.  But it will be more difficult if you encounter a python. Snakes are elusive. If it hurts someone, the power of the musket using iron sand is indeed a bit weak.

    Gao Jianqiang said: "No, no, I came to see General Liu today because I wanted to ask some questions."

    "Question? Just ask!"

    "I want to ask the emperor what kind of woman he likes!"

    "Huh? Why are you asking this?" Liu Yongfu said with some vigilance.

    "Because of this." Gao Jianqiang took out the newspaper.

    When Liu Yongfu saw it, it was a report about Song Qing's massacre of villages in the northwest. He immediately knew what Gao Jianqiang was thinking and said with a smile: "Hahaha, you want a tribesman to marry the emperor to ensure the safety of the Miao people? Hahahaha, don't worry at all!  Those who did these things were only the old troops of General Song Qing. The soldiers trained by the emperor would not do such things. Moreover, the emperor just sent me a telegram a few days ago, asking me not to interfere too much with you Miao and Zhuang people.  thing."

    "General Liu. Even so, the people of the clan will feel more at ease if someone marries the emperor."

    "Yes, that's true!" Liu Yongfu thought for a while and said, "I don't know what kind of woman the emperor likes, but I met the queen when I was in Taiwan. The queen is tall, delicate and delicate, and is different from other petite women.  It's different. So the emperor should like women who are tall and have delicate features."

    "Tall and tall, with delicate features and beautiful eyes." Gao Jianqiang said, and at the same time he said in his heart: "Isn't my daughter Miaomiao like this? And Miaomiao is nineteen this year, just because she is taller than boys. No one has dared to propose marriage.  If Miaomiao is allowed to marry the emperor, then Miaomiao will be the emperor¡¯s concubine, and won¡¯t I be the uncle of the state?¡±

    Gao Jianqiang¡¯s eyebrows were dancing with joy as he thought about it. At this time, someone came to see Liu Yongfu again.

    "Haha, General Liu, this is the tiger skin I shot the year before last! The lead was punched through the eyes, and there isn't even a pinhole in the fur!" Li Fengtian presented his gift as soon as he entered the door.

    Gao Jianqiang raised his head and said: "Clan Chief Li!"

    "Oh? Patriarch Gao is here too!" Li Fengtian turned around and said.

    Liu Yongfu said: "The purpose of Patriarch Li's coming is not the same as that of Patriarch Gao, right?"

    Gao Jianqiang said: "It is very possible that they have much more Zhuang people than we Miao people. It is normal to have such an idea, after all, the emperor is so young."

    Hearing this, Li Fengtian¡¯s eyes widened and he said, ¡°Patriarch Gao also wants to make peace with the emperor?¡±

    "Hey, I'm one step ahead of you. I already know what kind of woman the emperor likes."

    "In that case. General Liu, I won't say any more gossip. Just tell me what kind of woman the emperor likes. I am here on behalf of the Zhuang, Yao and Dong ethnic groups. General Liu is a millionaire."  You have to tell me, otherwise the chiefs of those tribes will pluck out my skin."

    "Ahem. What are you worrying about? The emperor is a benevolent king, and the slaughter of the village in Yinchuan was just an accident!" Liu Yongfu said.

    "Hey, what if an accident happens to us?" Gao Jianqiang and Li Fengtian said in unison.

    "Okay, ask Patriarch Gao what kind of woman the emperor likes, and I will send a report to ask the emperor what he thinks."

    "Your Majesty, he will definitely agree. Who would mind having too many wives? Patriarch Gao, don't you think so?" Li Fengtian said to Gao Jianqiang.

    "Yes, yes, no, the emperor is much younger than you, how can you call him an old man? You are disrespectful to the emperor!"

    "What's the big disrespect? We are all the Emperor's subjects, so calling him an old man is a big sign of respect!"

    "Yeah! That's right!"

    "Hey!" Liu Yongfu shook his head and walked out of the lobby.

    Qin Ge was depressed after receiving Liu Yongfu's telegram.  In his telegram, Liu Yongfu also advised Qin Ge to accept several ethnic minority women as concubines, so that he could manage the ethnic minorities very effectively.  Qin Ge was extremely depressed and found Tang Shaoyi with a telegram. At the beginning, this guy said that there would be absolutely no problem, otherwise he would definitely appease the southwest tribes, and such a thing would not happen now.

    After reading the telegram, Tang Shaoyi said: "Your Majesty, this is a good thing! In this way, there is no need to do anything else to ensure the stability of the Southwest. This is a good thing once and for all!"

    Good, good, good to you, sister!  Qin Ge really wanted to curse.  When I first brought Bingbing to meet Ada, Ada had the urge to turn me into a eunuch. Now she wants me to marry a few more, so she wants to turn me into a eunuch?

    Qin Ge did not engage in monogamy, not because heIt's not correct, but it can't be done at all.  It may not make sense if you do it.  That rich man in later generations didn¡¯t have many lovers?  Is there any man in the future who will not be single?  There is absolutely no point in being monogamous.

    Tang Shaoyi's Qin Ge looked a little ugly and said, "Does your Majesty have something to hide?"

    Your sister, you actually asked this question. Do you want me to tell you that I have "tracheitis"?

    Qin Ge said: "Well, marrying too many concubines can easily cause disputes in the harem. It's not good, it's very bad!"

    "How could it be? There were not many disputes in the harem among emperors in the past. What's more, now that the empire adopts a constitutional monarchy and a national socialist system, the power of the royal family is not as good as before. There should be no power struggles in the harem, and neither will people like Cixi.  Maybe." Tang Shaoyi already knew something about Qin Ge, so she dared to say this.

    Qin Ge was stunned and said: "I asked you to come up with a solution for me, not to persuade me to marry a few girls from ethnic minorities! I don't care, this is all your fault! Anyway, you have to come up with a solution for me.  Find a way!" Qin Ge said and left angrily.

    Shen Bingbing saw Qin Ge's angry look and asked with a smile: "What made you so angry? I never saw you like this when we were fighting with the Russians."

    "It's all Tang Shaoyi's fault!" Qin Ge explained the cause and effect of the matter.  Shen Bingbing chuckled.

    "what's so funny."

    "Tianwu, can't you beat Sister Ada?"

    "How could it be? Although I have neglected my martial arts practice during this period, I still won't be able to defeat Ada."

    "Then what are you afraid of?"

    ¡°I¡¯m afraid she¡¯ll turn me into a eunuch when I¡¯m not paying attention.¡±

    Shen Bingbing blushed and said, "How could that be? That one is so comfortable."

    "Huh?" Qin Ge looked up at Shen Bingbing.

    Afterwards, Shen Bingbing leaned on Qin Ge and said: "Tianwu, just marry some sisters back! Without the two sisters, I can't stand you alone!" (You are welcome, your support is my biggest motivation)  .)
