When the capital was carrying out a vigorous anti-corruption campaign, Rongkang took advantage of everyone's attention and quietly left the capital. This guy had not been staying in the capital for a long time, according to the time given to him by Gao Shaoyi.
, he must rush to the three southwestern provinces.
"Rongjie, I have never been out of the capital before, but now I finally have a chance. What do you think?"
Rongkang looked at his little cousin sitting in front of him. Both of them belonged to the royal family, but Rongjie was relatively young and had never had the opportunity to go out of the city to experience before. This time Gao Shaoyi arranged for this guy to join him and his elders.
The father-in-law went to the three southwestern provinces together. After all, it was not safe after going there. With the reinforced camp in the hands of this boy, it was a little more protection for Rongkang. After all, they are both descendants of the royal family and can work with each other.
help.
"Report to His Excellency the Governor..."
"When it's just the two of us, there's no need to be so serious. Just call me brother."
Rongkang waved his hand. Although the relationship between the two is not very close, after arriving in the southwest region, their relationship is relatively close. There are hundreds of children of the Huang family. If they were not close relatives, they would usually be together in the southwestern region.
When they met in the capital, the two of them would just nod casually at most, and it was impossible to have a so-called deep friendship, but if they met outside, they would have to join a group.
"I'd better call you Your Excellency the Governor. This is also the rule of our anti-Japanese army. Otherwise, I will feel very uncomfortable. I always feel that this is a private matter. When I call you Your Excellency the Governor, you can only remind me that I am in the office."
"
Rong Jie said with a grimace, when he was doing business in the capital, this guy offended a lot of people, so in order to ensure his safety, Gao Shaoyi put this kid on the train, and the corruption investigation in the capital was coming to an end.
, it is a bit of a waste of talent to continue to stay, it is better to send this kid to the three southwestern provinces. If used properly, he may be another strong man.
"You really have a stubborn temper. If that's the case, you should regard me as your boss. Tell me how you think I should open up the situation after going to the three southwestern provinces. Just say whatever you have to say.
As a discussion between the four of us, there is no need to worry."
Although we were on the train, the Rongkang special train was very comfortable. This time, we didn’t bring any family members with us. This was because we accepted Gao Shaoyi’s suggestion. The last time we went to Daliao Province, it was because the family generals were no longer in the capital.
There are ways to live, so you have to take it with you. After returning to the capital this time, everyone can feel the rise of Rongkang's status. In addition, the three southwestern provinces are a land of tigers and wolves, and many local chieftains are watching with eager eyes. If
If you bring your own family members, it might be a huge mistake.
"Everything must have the barrel of a gun. If there is no barrel of a gun, then no matter what position we are in, I am afraid there will be no way to accomplish this. I think we should first call the heads of the security groups. Some of them
The people were transferred from the three southern provinces. I think they can be trusted. However, some people were promoted by some local generals. Most of these people cannot be trusted. They should be arranged to go to military schools to study, which can be regarded as promotions.
Darkly descending."
Rong Jie is not very old, but he also sees the struggle for power very clearly. After the two of us went to the three southwestern provinces, except for the military support of the Suppression Army, we had no other advantages.
, whether it is the local gentry, the common people, or the chieftains who live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, they are not from the same family as us, so there is no way to rely on them. We can only continue to strengthen the guns in our hands. This is
This is our greatest advantage and we must never lose it.
"You saw the problem very accurately. There are a total of 246 security groups in the three southwestern provinces, of which more than 100 security groups are in our hands. It's hard to say about the other 100 or so security groups. These people are all
They are powerful people in the local area. When we took over the three southwestern provinces, we had to make some compromises. If we didn't give them an official, I'm afraid a local rebellion would be imminent."
Rongkang stared at the red and black dots on the map and said, the red dots are our own territory. These people are all group leaders from the three southern provinces. The black dots are the areas where local people serve as group leaders. The two sides can be said to be evenly matched, but
It's a criss-cross situation. In this case, we must deal with it properly. If something goes a little bit wrong, it is likely to cause a fight between the two groups, which will not be of any benefit to us.
"Mr. Governor, have you contacted General Long? There are many of General Long's old subordinates here. If General Long can write a letter of divorce, it will be very easy for us in the future. They all listen to Long more.
According to the general's order, as long as they can cooperate with our reforms, we can also keep their current positions, so that through the exchange of power, both of us can concentrate our efforts on dealing with those chieftains."
Although Rong Jie has lived in the capital for a long time, he also knows the situation in the southwest region. It is General Long's private territory. In the past, neither the court dignitaries nor the emperor could place their own people there.
If you want to do it forcefully, then you have to look at the life and death of the people you put in. The emperor once sent three imperial ministers, two of whom were killed on the way. Although the remaining one went smoothly
They entered the three southwest provinces, but because the armed forces in their hands were too weak, on a day out for fun, all eleven members of the family died in the hands of bandits. Of course, the three southwest provinces reported that they were bandits. As for how they died
Yes, I'm afraid only those people know it.
"I have thought about what you said, and your thinking is quite good. General Long can control more than thirty of them, and under the influence of General Long, these more than thirty people are also willing to retire early, as long as
We can ensure the safety of their families. As for the remaining people, General Long really has no ability to control them. It turns out that when General Long occupied this area, there were many places below that he could not control. This is the remaining
We need to deal with the more than 90 group leaders below one by one."
Rongkang sighed. The mission this time was still very serious.
