Red Alert 1895: Chapter 624 The reason for choosing the capital

"Hurry up, hurry up, speed up my march. Mongolia is already very unstable. If it is too late, it may cause unimaginable consequences. 【, With our shallow strength in Mongolia, it may be difficult to stop those The Mongolian nobles are causing trouble! Speed ​​up and march over!"

The person who was shouting, that is, Zhu Yuan, who had just been appointed as the Mongolian patrol envoy, rushed to Mongolia with his army and a small number of administrative personnel. And his task is to reach the Mongolian region before Tsarist Russia, so that the Mongolian region can be completely ruled. At present, Taiwan's ruling power in Mongolia is very weak, and even in the huge Mongolia area, some intelligence personnel are active, and there is no regular Taiwan army. So now the Mongolian region is completely in a vacuum. If you don't rush there as soon as possible, there may be accidents.

The capital of the Manchu Qing Dynasty had been captured by Wang Guorui, and those Tsarist Russians also began to think about how to incite the Mongols to rebel against independence, and then gain their sufficient status. But Wang Guorui would never allow this to happen. He had to send troops to Mongolia as soon as possible to stabilize the situation and resist the Russian invasion. For this reason, Wang Guorui did not hesitate to set up the position of patrol envoy. This position is like a prince. This is to give Zhu Yuan enough authorization, so that he can control the power of Mongolia well in the future, and then he does not have to ask Wang Guorui frequently. , You can cut first and then play on the spot.

But with such great power, Wang Guorui naturally couldn't let it go easily. Instead, let him have a patrolling deputy envoy, that is, the high-speed rail party who was born as a prison warden. The high-speed rail side is mainly responsible for handling government affairs and helping him clean up those Mongolian opposition forces, especially those Mongolian nobles who want to collude with the Tsarist Russians. power. The only way to kill these separatist forces is to uproot them. Only in this way can the rule of Mongolia be guaranteed.

And those Mongolian troops began to march quickly, and even many soldiers were tired, but Zhu Yuan didn't show any sympathy. Instead, he let these soldiers rest for only six hours a day, and the remaining eighteen hours were spent in March quickly. If it weren't for them being able to eat meat frequently before, it would have allowed them to be in good health. Only in this way can they get enough good nutritional supplements, so that they can get a healthy body, and this is how they survived this arduous rapid march.

"General Zhu Yuan, we have now arrived in the Zhanghuan Special Zone, that is, we have officially arrived in the territory of Monan Mongolia!" Gao Tiefang said while looking at the map.

"Have you arrived at the Zhanghuan Special Zone? That's good. It's not a waste of our rapid march for nearly half a month, and we can finally catch our breath!" Zhu Yuan said.

The so-called Zhanghuan Special Zone is the Chahar Province of the later Republic of China, and it is also one of the components of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The Inner Mongolia of later generations was adjusted from the three provinces of Chahar, Rehe and Suiyuan in the four provinces of northern Saibei. Then formed the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. At present, the Zhanghuan Special Zone that the army is about to arrive at is Chahar Province. Zhanghuan Special Zone was the name of Chahar during the Qing Dynasty. At present, Chahar Province has not been established, so it is still called Zhanghuan Special Zone.

"This Mongolian region is an important barrier for our capital, so Mongolia must not be lost. If it is lost, then our capital will not have any strategic buffer zone. So our Mongolia must not be lost, otherwise how can we be worthy of Lord Wang? "The high-speed rail side said.

However, the high-speed rail side said next: "Why did Mr. Wang decide to set the capital in Beijing? And Beijing is too close to Tsarist Russia. It's a bit dangerous. But doesn't Beijing feel too northern? Back then, the Ming Dynasty set the capital in Beijing, that was Guarding the border for the sake of the emperor. And Ming Chengzu Zhu Di’s old background was in Beijing, so he moved the capital to Beijing. On the other hand, the Manchu and Qing dynasty established their capital in Beijing, so they could return to the northeast at any time, so they established their capital in Beijing. But we really don’t need to set the capital with Beijing, if we set the capital with the central region of China, wouldn’t it be good?”

"In fact, we can set our capital in the central region, so that we can effectively rule the north and south of our China. And for the next traffic network, it is also easy to plan! Moreover, the capital is generally established in an area that is convenient for ruling the four directions. , but no matter how I see it, this Beijing is not suitable as the capital of the new imperial court!"

The high-speed rail side really can't figure out why Wang Guorui thinks that his capital must be in Beijing. Isn't this just asking for trouble? You should know that Wang Guorui's capital is Beijing. It's very close to the Russians. Moreover, the Mongolian generation is a plain, which is not suitable as a blocking place to defend against Russian invasion. Moreover, the more important thing is that the capital Beijing is too far away from the traditional areas of China to effectively control the south. From the perspective of political power radiation, it is not suitable for controlling the entire south of China.

Since ancient times, the choice of the capital has a great political purpose, and it is generally based on radiation-controlled areas. In ancient times, it was said that the mountains are high and the emperor is far away. That means that the capital is too far away from certain places, and the political radiation ability is very poor, so it cannot radiate there. In particular, the transportation and communication capabilities in ancient times were very poor, and the radiation power was further reduced. Therefore, in the minds of ordinary people, it is not really suitable to set the capital in Beijing. Beijing is too far north in the traditional Chinese sphere of influence, and it feels that it can't control the southern territory.

In the capital, Wang Guorui began to answer everyone's doubts.

"Guys, do you think it's inappropriate for me to make Beijing my capital?" Wang Guorui asked.

The chief of staff of the navy, Qiu Baoren, immediately asked: "My lord, it is really not appropriate to set up the capital in Beijing. A large amount of our territory is in Nanyang. If we set the capital in Beijing, will the Nanyang territory be out of control?"

Qiu Baoren is the leader of the navy, so he naturally attaches great importance to the interests of the navy. But now the main force of the navy is also in Nanyang. If Beijing is the capital, it will be too far away from the traditional sphere of influence of the navy, which will definitely be very detrimental to the navy. If the navy leaves the capital for a long time in the future, it may not be beneficial to itself, especially if it is easy to be ignored by the superiors.

"Do you all think Beijing is not appropriate?" Wang Guorui asked.

And a person from the traffic department immediately said: "Master Wang, if Beijing is the capital, it will not be easy to deploy the traffic road network! Especially for controlling the four directions, it is not suitable. Beijing's position is too biased. Suitable for controlling the whole country!"

However, Wang Guorui laughed and said: "You just saw what is in front of you. Although you think that Beijing is on our Chinese territory, it is too far to the north. Of course, I do know that Beijing is indeed to the north, and it is not suitable as a Our traditional capital."

"There is another reason, that is, you are worried about the Russians. Beijing is too far north, and it is easy for the Russians to actively invade. However, you have not thought of one thing, that is, the long-term development in the future. From our current point of view , Beijing is indeed a bit northerly, which is not suitable for controlling Nanyang territory. But I don't think so, you just see a geographical location that is farther north, but you don't see our future development. Especially our future development , do you think that our northern territory is only a few provinces in the northeast, or the Mongolian region?"

"Isn't it? Our northern territory, that is, the provinces in the Northeast and the Mongolian region! After all, it is too close to the Tsarist Russians,"

But Wang Guorui said, "Huh, in the future, our territory will be Saibei, and there are still several provinces in the Northeast?"

"What? We are in the north, do we have other territories?" Zheng Hong asked.

However, Wang Guorui laughed and said: "In the future, I will definitely not stop here. In the future, we will continue to expand to the north. And the north is here, Siberia."

"Siberia, isn't that the territory of the Russians?" Qiu Baoren asked.

"That's a good question. It's the territory of the Russians now, but it may not be the case in the future!" Wang Guorui replied.

"Master Wang, what do you mean..."

Everyone really didn't dare to think about it, because Wang Guorui actually said that Siberia would be China's territory in the future, which shocked everyone. Because what Wang Guorui meant was that there would be a war with the Russians in the future, that is, Siberia must be taken over, which shocked them too. We must know that in the past, foreigners came to invade China and rob China's territory. Although Wang Guorui also went to **** the territory of the Dutch and the Spaniards, but this is also the territory of weak European countries~www.mtlnovel.com~ It's nothing for them to rob. But now they are going to grab the territory of the Russians, which is simply too shocking.

You must know that China has always been bullied in the past, but now it has the courage to take the initiative to rob the old Maozi of territory, which makes everyone dare not think about it!

"Now, do you know why I set the capital in Beijing? Because in the future, Beijing will be the center of our China, because the target of our strategy is Siberia. Only in Beijing is the country that is most suitable as the capital." The central area! So, since Beijing is the central area, it is natural that it should be established here, so as to take into account the needs of all aspects." Wang Guorui said.

"Your Majesty Wang is so proud, we will definitely obey in the future!" Qiu Baoren said immediately, patting his chest.

And everyone immediately flattered over, obviously admiring Wang Guorui's ambition (ambition), and being able to think of things they didn't dare to think of.

"Could it be that this is the reason Mr. Wang can be the leader and we can only be the subordinates? In terms of such ambition and courage, we are incomparable!" Everyone sighed in their hearts. (To be continued.)
