    "Speaking of which, although we have abolished all unequal treaties with Russia, during the Second Opium War, the area east of Lake Balkhash occupied by Russia, totaling 440,000 square kilometers, has become an unresolved issue.  It's really a big pity." Zhang Tinglan smiled slightly: "Lingge, if you want to give it first, it's not a bad idea to keep this place." Yang Yuting frowned, but before he could catch up with Zhang Tinglan's thoughts, Zhang Tinglan smiled slightly: "That's it.  Just like playing chess, we should not just focus on how many pieces we capture, but also look at the overall situation. In fact, leaving Central Asia behind will leave a trigger, and we will have enough reasons to go to war with Russia." "Zhuo.  Anyway, Russia is a behemoth. Are you really ready to go to war with Russia? " "That's right." Zhang Tinglan said firmly: "The Russians are industrializing rapidly, and their determination is not inferior to ours at all. And Russia is not at all inferior to us.  We are rich in resources, almost all resources can be found, and our foundation is better than ours. The only advantage we have over Russia now is that we are ahead of Russia in large-scale construction. However, according to intelligence, they have also begun to build collective farms and agriculture.  The changes are a harbinger of industrial changes. Therefore, we must fight the Russians at the critical moment to suppress their momentum." Yang Yuting also nodded: "It is true, but China and Russia are both giants.  If we encounter each other, the outcome is uncertain. I think it is better to limit the conflict to Central Asia and Xinjiang, which is easier to control. " "Yes, in fact, for China and Russia, Central Asia and Xinjiang are two separate areas.  A weak area. It is also the transition zone between the two countries. Whoever can complete the preparations for war first and stabilize the rear will win.  That¡¯s absolutely true. Whether it¡¯s Xinjiang or Central Asia, there are ethnic issues. It depends on who can take the lead. If they can stabilize themselves, they can use this card to attack the other side. ¡°In fact, Russia after the civil war.  , and did not completely control the huge territory. The ethnic groups and religions in Central Asia are different from Russia, and conflicts have always existed.  For example, the famous Basmachi movement began fighting with Russia from the Tsarist era, and the war continued until the 1930s.  And some princes from Central Asia also joined in.  It was not until Russia finally forcibly divided and established the five Central Asian countries based on ethnic groups that all kinds of contradictions gradually weakened.  However, the Russians are deeply suffering from national issues, but they do not know how to reflect. Instead, they turn around and stir up trouble and rebellion in China. They are simply stubborn.  Later Russia lost the five Central Asian countries.  On the contrary, China's Xinjiang and other places are prospering, which can be regarded as a kind of retribution.  Of course, history has turned around at this time, and Zhang Tinglan still has quite good cards, so he must take advantage of the right opportunity to get Central Asia back.  "Lin Ge, in fact, there are two things that are very important to everyone. One is hope and the other is self-realization. As long as these two are grasped well. Coupled with fairness in dealing with things and political clarity, the overall situation can basically be settled.  " Yang Yuting also smiled and said: "It's nothing more than carrots and sticks. In the previous stage, we vigorously suppressed the rebels, which was to establish our authority. Now we need to establish morality and calm the people's hearts. " After I made it clear.  , Yang Yuting immediately left Beijing for Lanzhou, as planned.  He will take the first train from Lanzhou to Dihua, officially ending the history of no trains in Xinjiang.  The Chinese people have also given unprecedented enthusiasm to the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway, a railway with important military and economic value. A large number of reporters gathered in Lanzhou, preparing to witness this historical moment.  After Yang Yuting arrived in Lanzhou, everything was ready. Just when the train was about to leave, Yang Yuting suddenly faced many reporters and smiled and said to everyone: "The successful construction of the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway this time depends largely on the people along the way. Everyone.  Some people sweated and even shed blood to build this 1,903-kilometer railway. The country will not forget these hard workers. All people who participate in voluntary labor will receive tax exemption for one year and will be exempted from taxes in the future.  , they will be able to enjoy half-price discounts on this train, and the government will also issue special commemorative medals. " Yang Yuting said that it is voluntary labor, but in fact it is largely compulsory, but it is not Zhang Tinglan who does this.  Feng Yuxiang, speaking of Lao Feng, he also suffered for others.  When building the railway, Feng Yuxiang forcibly recruited a large number of civilians. If they dared not to build the road, they would be labeled as rebels. I don¡¯t know how many people died for this. It can be said that there was a corpse lying under every sleeper.  Bones.  Zhang Tinglan and Yang Yuting were well aware of this. Later, after Qin Wei and Rong Zhen led their troops into Xinjiang, they also recruited many civilians, but they were somewhat restrained in doing things. These civilians gave some compensation, but for the rebels, theyThey were not very polite. Basically, after they were caught, they were all sent to the railway to be exhausted to death.  ¡°What Yang Yuting did at this time is undoubtedly to shift all the responsibility to Feng Yuxiang and let him take the blame, while the government is trying to calm people¡¯s hearts.  Of course, reporters don¡¯t know this clearly, or they don¡¯t want to know it. This is also the need for publicity.  As Yang Yuting spoke, he pointed to a young man next to him with a smile: "His name is Alimu, and he is the driver of this train. As a railway connecting the mainland and Xinjiang, it will bring unprecedented prosperity to the Xinjiang region. Xinjiang compatriots  I will also enjoy this honor and become a witness to history!¡± After Yang Yuting finished speaking, these reporters all turned their cameras on this shy young man named Alimu. The spotlight kept flashing, and this was the first time he met Alimu.  When this happened, his face turned red and he didn't know where to put his hands and feet. The backward areas in the border areas were almost ignored by many people. Alimu was probably the first young man to receive such attention, and the media also  I began to pay attention to the story behind this young man, and even prepared to set up a special report for him.  After the National Defense Forces entered Xinjiang, Zhang Tinglan set up a special scholarship to reward outstanding students in Xinjiang. Those with good grades can enter the mainland for further study. After completing their studies, they can return to Xinjiang to work.  In addition, a group of extremely poor and low-status young people were specially selected, and Alimu was one of them.  Before the National Defense Forces entered Xinjiang, Alimu's family worked for the monastery and was basically a slave. He helped herd sheep since he was a child and was often beaten and starved. He also tried to escape many times, but was captured and taken back by the clergy.  , a group of people who usually look like saints, are not lenient at all when they fight people.  They had countless means of torture, including a variety of torture instruments, whips, clamps, tiger benches, and so on. Many slaves were tortured to death by them.  That time Alimu lost a sheep and was hung up and beaten severely. Alimu¡¯s skin was torn and his flesh was torn, and he almost fainted.  At this time, the National Defense Forces raided the temple and rescued him. After treatment, he was rescued.  Alimu and 50 young people who had almost the same experience were sent to the mainland for training.  Most of these young people have weak foundations and can only be sent to technical schools to receive vocational education. However, Alimu knew some words before, especially since he knew that this was the only chance to change his destiny, so he studied eagerly and spent two months.  After breaking through the language barrier, it took more than half a year to complete almost the one-and-a-half-year course taken by others.  Diligence, studious and outstanding performance, Alimu got the opportunity to enter a junior college. He was the first among all the young people from the frontier. He is still a student and is studying harder.  Due to Zhang Tinglan's special instructions, Yang Yuting also realized that border areas should also feel the development of the country and enjoy the glory of self-realization, especially to set up a group of inspirational models so that everyone can see the hope of changing their destiny.  That's why Yang Yuting asked Alimu, who was studying, to find him and let him be responsible for driving the first train. Of course, there was an experienced master beside him, otherwise what problem would this young boy cause?  It's troublesome.  When all the spotlights were focused on Alimu, the shy young man was a little at a loss. Yang Yuting smiled and patted his shoulder: "Young man, don't be nervous. If you are like this, we passengers will not dare to take the bus."  " Yang Yuting's words made everyone around him laugh. These kind smiles made Alimu relax a lot.  He suddenly saluted Yang Yuting: "Sir, I promise to complete the mission without any mistakes." "Okay!" Yang Yuting also said with a smile: "The country belongs to everyone, and our national flag is a five-color flag, representing the Han Dynasty  The republic of Manchuria, Mongolia and Tibet is not just a republic of five ethnic groups. All people living on this land are Chinese and one family. Everyone can enjoy the fruits of the country's development, and everyone can enjoy the fruits of the country's development.  They all have their own missions for this country, and the government will not discriminate against anyone. I can tell you that the Fengtian aircraft carrier has just returned from a mission to protect overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia. There are 6 logistics personnel from Mongolia on board.  The next batch of 12 Xinjiang soldiers will become honorary sailors of China¡¯s first aircraft carrier and jointly guard China¡¯s maritime borders!¡± Yang Yuting¡¯s words soon appeared on the pages of major newspapers. Everyone knew Yang Yuting¡¯s identity very well!  , his speech largely represents Zhang Tinglan¡¯s ethnic policy, which is also an unavoidable topic in governing a country as huge as China.  Suddenly, many people began to focus on Xinjiang and Mongolia, and more and more inspirational stories were unearthed. Compared with Xinjiang, Inner and Outer Mongolia have undergone greater changes in recent years, and more and more herders have embarked on the journey.  Wealthy roads, railways have been opened, mines have been developed, there are more and more cattle and sheep, and everyone's life is getting better and better  As Zhang Tinglan expected, when most people are working hard for money, society will naturally settle down. Of course, some people who are unwilling to give up are not excluded, but these people can no longer make any waves.
