The Japanese people, headed by Toyohiko Kagawa, squeezed into the small room together and filled the entire space. Everyone bowed deeply to the deceased Fujiwara Jiro, then covered him with a large white cloth, and then four people worked together to cut him off.

He was put on a stretcher and slowly carried to the carriage down the mountain, and was escorted away by everyone.

The scene was surprisingly solemn. Kagawa Toyohiko and others tightly closed their lips, and not a single word came out of their mouths.

Chen Tianhua walked them all the way to the foot of the mountain and bowed to watch the hearse leave. This was his respect for the deceased.

Dying with dignity is a noble warrior spirit.

…

A long-planned armed conflict initiated by the Japanese side then evolved into a large-scale battle involving more than a thousand people. It was thrilling and tragic, and finally ended with the complete victory of the Meiguang Autonomous Region.

By the end of the seventh lunar month of the thirty-second year of Guangxu's reign, the bandit suppression campaign in the Guangde Mountains, which had lasted nearly half a year, was coming to an end, and the work of land reform and rural cleansing was in full swing.

The entire campaign was divided into two main battlefields in the north and south, and four theaters in the east, west, and south. More than 2,600 troops and 2,000 militiamen were invested. There were more than 300 large and small battles, and a total of 13,000 local armed forces including horse bandits and bandits were eliminated.

The remaining people were rehabilitated, and more than 3,000 prisoners were rehabilitated.

The political significance of this battle lies in the comprehensive elimination of reactionary forces in the entire Meiguang Autonomous Region, the eradication of all opium poppy cultivation, the strict prohibition of the sale and smoking of opium, and the implementation of the second phase of land reform in the entire region.

When it comes to economic accounts, the autonomous region is profitable. Most of the income accumulated by these local forces from growing opium poppies and selling opium over the years has been handed over to Chen Tianhua and his autonomous region government.

The total gold and silver treasure is about 30 million taels of silver, and the cash income from this piece of money is huge.

In addition to cash gains, there are also more than a thousand war horses, food, weapons, equipment, ammunition, etc.

Oh shit!

What is war profiteering?

I didn’t expect such a good thing to happen to me, haha!

During this period, Chen Tianhua, Li Xinghong and others were so happy that they even smiled crookedly.

The increase in military and economic power quickly reversed the situation.

More importantly, we have a complete base area to lay a solid foundation for future development.

Chen Tianhua completed his inspection of the Niutoushan Coal Mine in Maoxin and returned to the administrative center of the autonomous region government. He began a series of deepening reforms of the internal system, strengthened and promoted land reform throughout the territory, established ordinary and senior schools, established technical, industrial and trade colleges, introduced, excavated and

Cultivate professional talents.

In the military, with the approval of the Zhejiang Provincial Governor's Office, the Sixth New Army Regiment was officially expanded into the Mixed Association, whose full name is: the Third Mixed Association of the New Army of Zhejiang Province.

The Third Mixed Association has a strength of 4,500 people and has jurisdiction over the Sixth and Seventh Field Regiments, two artillery battalions, two heavy machine gun companies, a baggage logistics battalion, an engineering battalion and other directly affiliated units.

Chen Tianhua is the deputy chief of staff of the Zhejiang New Army and the commander-in-chief of the Third Mixed Association. He is responsible for all military dispatch, military expenditures and army construction of the Third Association.

Li Xinghong is the deputy co-ordinator of the Third Association and concurrently the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Association.

Ji Chunsheng was appointed chief of staff of the Third Mixed Association.

In addition to being promoted by their original subordinates, a group of outstanding graduates from the Zhejiang Armed Forces Academy were transferred to the company-level officers of each subordinate battalion to enrich their training.

In terms of institutional reform of the functional departments of the autonomous region government, it has complete autonomy and autonomy, and various functional bureaus (departments), sections, and units are established under the Government Affairs Committee.

For example, the Education Bureau, Agriculture, Forestry and Water Conservancy Bureau, Industrial Manufacturing Bureau, etc., to adapt to the pace of development of the times.

As the chief architect of the development of the autonomous region, he also needs to think carefully and plan the next development.

…

Meishan Town, the administrative center of the autonomous region.

In early August of the lunar calendar, the autumn wind blows slowly and the weather gradually becomes cooler.

"Have you heard? The female head of the Investigation Department, Xu Yunyuan, Miss Xu is back."

"She will be going to Shanghai for more than half a year this time."

"..."

The Military Investigation Section has now been expanded to the Military Investigation Division. Director Xu Yunyuan stayed in Meishan Town for more than ten days after the year, explained some matters, and then returned to Shanghai.

I've been there for more than half a year and it's very mysterious.

In other words, she only showed her face in the autonomous region for more than ten days this year and then disappeared from people's sight.

Originally, military investigation work was mysterious, and people were used to it coming and going without a trace, but it was the first time that Xu Yunyuan disappeared for such a long time.

She didn't often appear at Wukang Road or Fukaisen Mansion in Shanghai, that is, in the first few months when she went there, she disappeared later.

According to reliable internal information, her main task in Shanghai is to give birth to children?!

There is no airtight wall in this world. Like the female head of her military investigation department, there are people who gossip behind her back.

Miss Xu is not married, so whose child is it?!

Nonsense, does this even need to be said plainly?

The military investigation department was upgraded from a department to a department, but its office location remained unchanged and was still at the former residence of the Governor-General of the Autonomous Region.

Now, the courtyard and buildings of the Military Investigation Office have been expanded a lot, so they simply separated it from the Governor's Mansion and turned it into a separate government office.

But it is only separated from the courtyard of the Governor's Mansion by a wall. For the convenience of security, and also for the convenience of communication and reporting, Chen Tianhua agreed to open a door in the wall of this courtyard.

Chen Tianhua, dressed in casual autumn clothes, came to the semicircular door like a breeze, startling the two guards of the Governor's Mansion who were waiting at the door.

Although the Military Investigation Department is next door, there is a mixed crowd in this yamen, and there are everyone. Not only Chen Tianhua’s original bodyguards, but also people from the military gendarmerie brigade, the current gendarmerie corps, and even selected from the commando battalion.

There are also many civil servants who have just graduated from school.

Recently, Gu Zhunian has been vigorously recruiting a new group of special operations team members, among whom there may be some Jianghu figures, prisoners and reformed winners.

Fei Ge was very worried about this, so he put a few personal guards here to guard the door 24 hours a day. Except for a few confidants such as Gu Zhunian and Xu Yunyuan, if there is no leader's token, this person will

No one from the Bian Yamen could even think of stepping onto the threshold of the Governor's Mansion.

"Major General!"

The two guards stood at attention with their heads held high and their chests held high. Chen Tianhua waved his hand, raised his index finger to his mouth and whispered softly, then walked towards the opposite side.

There were several personal guards behind him who were waiting to follow, but when they saw Chen Tianhua turned around and glared at them, making a gesture of staying put, they had no choice but to stop obediently.

Seeing the major general walking over quietly, the seven guards looked helplessly at Fei Ge, the captain of the guard, who came after him, and looked at him inquiringly.

Feige carefully identified the direction where Chen Tianhua went. It was not the front yard of the investigation office, but the backyard. It should be the elegant garden of the female boss.

Chen Tianhua rarely came to Yayuan where Xu Yunyuan lived, maybe two or three times. Usually the female boss would come here to report on work, and sometimes she would stay there and return early the next morning.

Fei Ge and his bodyguards were well aware of these whereabouts, but they remained tight-lipped, which was the minimum quality required of the bodyguards of the highest official in the autonomous region.
Chapter completed!
