In fact, Chinese society has always been governed by people, so relationships are very important in Chinese society. If a person has connections and connections, it will be regarded as a sign of ability.
Qin Zhiyuan hates this system deeply. Even if the intricate network of relationships makes Chinese society look more humane, Qin Zhiyuan also hates all forms of relationship networks.
In another time and space, Qin Zhiyuan was unable to change and could only drift with the tide.
But in this time and space, Qin Zhiyuan now has the ability and determination, so he decided to make great efforts to rectify the relationship network.
In Qin Zhiyuan's view, human touch is not reflected in various relationships, nor in various favors, but in the humanistic care of the whole society, such as the attitude towards children and the elderly, such as the attitude towards immigrants,
For example, the attitude towards the Lanfang Aboriginal people.
The Lanfang government has a tolerant attitude towards children and the elderly.
In order to optimize the population structure and rapidly increase the population, the Lanfang government has announced a large number of welfare policies for children. For example, newborns can enjoy special national subsidies, free medical care, free nine-year compulsory education, etc.
Of course, a basic link must be pointed out: all rights and obligations are equal.
If a newborn in Lanfang wants to enjoy these benefits, he must first be sure to be a Lanfang citizen, and secondly, he must grow into the talents Lanfang needs in the education system of the Lanfang government.
This may sound cold, but it is the only way for all societies to function normally.
For the elderly, this problem is not prominent now, because the citizens of Lanfang are relatively young as a whole, and the overall number of elderly people is not large. Moreover, because of the traditional habits of Chinese society, the support of the elderly is generally the responsibility of the descendants of the elderly, which is dependent on society.
Not serious.
Even so, the Lanfang government still stipulates benefits for the elderly, such as subsidies for the elderly and tilting the medical system.
A small population has the advantage of having a small population. If it were the Republic of China, it would be very difficult to implement these policies, but in Lanfang, a country with a population of only a few million people, there is not much difficulty in implementing it.
Simply put, as long as you have money.
After the founding of Lanfang, some imperialists proposed to kill or expel all the Lanfang natives in order to establish a harmonious society composed entirely of Chinese.
There are also slightly more moderate Han nationalists who have proposed to reform the Lanfang Aboriginal people, and the method is relatively tough, and they are preparing to set up institutions such as naturalization camps to naturalize the Lanfang Aboriginal people.
In fact, at the national level, all drastic measures are inappropriate. Not only will the international image be damaged, but it will also be difficult to explain internally.
Lanfang currently has a number of regulations that impose restrictions on the planned population and aboriginal people. For example, the promotion of Chinese language is the biggest restriction on aboriginal people.
Since last year, Lanfang has designated Chinese as the official language, and also stipulated that other languages are not allowed to be used in all public places in Lanfang. This seemed a bit unreasonable at first, but the effect is very good.
So far, even the elderly aborigines can speak more or less Chinese, and their accents may be a bit non-standard, but they have no problem communicating in daily life.
When the next generation of Lanfang is born, they will live in a Chinese-speaking world. Whether in school or anywhere in Lanfang, Chinese is the only language they can come into contact with, and learning Chinese will become a habit.
In fact, Chinese is a very charming language, just like the legendary poem "You Say You Love the Rain" by Shakespeare. When it is translated into various versions, the charm of Chinese suddenly emerges on the page, and people have to admire it.
In fact, the ancestors of the Chinese people have been using this subtle method to assimilate foreign races, with good results and almost no sequelae. Even those imperial Han people, or those big Han people, are not pure Han people themselves.
However, cultural identity makes them think that they are Han Chinese.
Qin Zhiyuan also wanted to use this method to assimilate the local indigenous residents, so as not to leave any stain on others.
Perhaps it would take a long time to use this method, but compared to the Americans who adopted the bloody westward expansion movement to treat the Indians, Qin Zhiyuan would rather use this method to be subtle.
Think about the Americans in the 21st century. No matter how powerful their national power is, no matter how prosperous they are in the 21st century, the westward expansion movement will always be an indelible stain on the United States. Even the Americans themselves cannot justify this issue.
.
While Qin Zhiyuan was inspecting Lanfang, Chen Kangjian was also inspecting Sakhalin Island.
Sakhalin Island is called Sakhalin Island in Russia and Huatai Island in Japan.
Why is Japan involved?
Because in the Russo-Japanese War in 1905, the Russians were defeated, and then they compensated the Japanese for all the islands south of the 50th parallel north, including half of Sakhalin Island.
The Lanfang Northern Expedition Army attacked Vladivostok and Siberia, which naturally included Sakhalin Island. Therefore, on the current Sakhalin Island, with 50 degrees north latitude as the boundary, Lanfang and Japan each occupy half.
Chen Kangjian was patrolling on the Lanfang side of Sakhalin Island.
Stationed here are the 62nd Regiment and 63rd Regiment of the 17th Division of the Northern Expedition Corps, while on the Japanese side, the 21st Brigade of the Japanese Fifth Division is stationed.
The establishment of brigades in the Japanese army is second only to divisions. Each brigade consists of two infantry regiments, with a total number of about 3,500 people. This establishment is a formal establishment. If it is wartime, some civilians may be added.
That number will exceed 5,000 people.
The organization of the Northern Expedition Corps is a three-three system, and the strength of a regiment is about 3,000.
Calculating this, near 50 degrees north latitude, the military strength of Lanfang and Japan was about two to one.
This situation obviously aroused the vigilance of the Japanese.
In fact, just after the Northern Expedition Army began to launch an attack on Russia, the Japanese were ready to move. The Japanese troops stationed on the Japanese side of Sakhalin Island also showed signs of launching an attack to the north, but they were forcefully stopped by the British, the Japanese ally.
The British stopped the Japanese to punish their less obedient brother. Although the Japanese were forced to obey, they also felt resentful towards the British.
It seemed that the Anglo-Japanese alliance was in danger.
This so-called military demarcation line is actually just a vague concept. The Japanese and Russians do not know for what purpose, and neither has determined the demarcation line in detail. Therefore, there is no Japanese-Russian border near the current 50° north latitude.
The boundary markers recognized by both sides are just defended according to traditional customs.
When the baton from the Russians was passed to Lan Fang, Lan Fang would not take the initiative to draw a line with the Japanese.
Sakhalin Island was originally Chinese territory, and the Russians were not qualified to cede Sakhalin Island to any party.
Lanfang had made it clear from the beginning that he would not recognize the Portsmouth Contract, and it seemed that the Japanese, who had now occupied part of Sakhalin Island, had no intention of being satisfied.
As a result, Lanfang and the Japanese were at war with each other near 50° north latitude, and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.
The British, American and French military observation groups in the Northern Expedition had an ambiguous attitude towards this, and even the British, Japan's allies, were noncommittal about this.
If you think about it, you can understand that in World War I, the British and the French teamed up to defeat the German challenge. However, when the British looked back, they found that the silent Japanese had almost monopolized the world of the Republic of China.
The largest market, how can the British swallow this breath?
The Japanese also knew that their actions had aroused public outrage, so when Lanfang attacked Siberia, the Japanese maintained great restraint and did not continue to challenge the bottom line of patience of Britain, France and the United States.
But when it comes to territorial disputes, the Japanese have no way to retreat, and Lanfang will not retreat.
Well, there are already signs of future strife.
Chen Kangjian's trip was to make advance preparations for future wars.
Recently, the Japanese have shown signs of increasing their troops. There are many vehicles coming in and out of their military camps every day, not only manpower, but also signs of hoarding supplies. Qu Feixiang, commander of the 62nd Regiment, reported next to Chen Kang's fitness center.
Yesterday, a Japanese torpedo boat wandered around our waters. After we issued a warning, the Japanese torpedo boat quickly withdrew. This has happened before. He Feizhou, the leader of the 63rd Regiment, followed up with a report.
Qu Feixiang and He Feizhou are both veterans of the Foreign Legion. Half of the troops under their command are veterans of the Foreign Legion, and the rest are partly hired Annans and some Germans.
To fight against Russia, the Germans did not need to mobilize and were very motivated.
Chen Kangjian, who was observing, put down the telescope in his hand, rubbed his chin and looked at the Japanese military camp in the distance without making a sound.
On the current Sakhalin Island, there are almost no traces of human development. The Japanese side is better, and there are finally some Japanese immigrants. On the Lanfang side, the previous Russians have evacuated, and Lanfang organized
Immigration has not yet been able to cover this area, so it is now simply no man's land.
The Japanese, the Russians in the past, and the people in Lanfang now have not built permanent fortifications. Perhaps in their subconscious, this is just a temporary dividing line, and there is no need to do such useless work.
Commander, let's fight. The Japanese are nothing special. Their equipment is extremely limited, with very few machine guns and artillery. Our battalion's firepower density is almost as high as that of their regiment. We only need to dispatch one regiment to defeat them.
The Japanese drove out of Sakhalin Island. Qu Feixiang was more radical.
In terms of equipment level, the Lanfang army that returned from Europe is no longer on the same level as the Asian armies. Even Japan, which is currently known as the strongest in Asia, has a much lower firepower density than Lanfang.
But Lanfang also has disadvantages, that is, Lanfang's current material supply relies heavily on external resources, and his country's hematopoietic mechanism is insufficient. This makes Lanfang's army unable to sustain combat capabilities. Once the existing supplies are consumed, the sea transportation routes
If it is blocked by the Japanese again, it will be useless for Lanfang's army to equip one person with a machine gun.
Therefore, Chen Kangjian acted very cautiously: Don't worry, let the Japanese occupy it if they want. Now is not the time to start a war. We must wait at least five years before starting a war.
Five years, there is a time limit for this.
In another time and space, Qin Zhiyuan was already familiar with the Five-Year Plan and had a profound understanding of the significance and role of the Five-Year Plan. So in this time and space, Qin Zhiyuan naturally wanted to copy the Five-Year Plan.
