The ten governors, Zhili, Liangjiang, Huguang, Liangguang, Fujian, Zhejiang, Yunnan-Guizhou, Sichuan, Heyun, Caoyun, plus Shaanxi and Gansu. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoIf Shaanxi and Gansu are changed to "Shaanxi and Gansu Xin", then "Shaanxi and Gansu Xin" is indeed the only "three-character" governor.

Wen Xiang also smiled and said: "Two words or three words, you can consider it again, for example, call it 'Governor of the Northwest'?" The regulations govern the three provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu and Xinjiang, and that's it. ”

Governor of the Northwest?

Guan Zhuofan pondered for a moment and said: "According to my original idea, Xinjiang does not have to be administered by the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu in terms of administrative divisions -- it is best to be self-reliant, and it is not impossible for Xinjiang to set up its own governor. ”

Yes? Several ministers of military aircraft were slightly stunned.

"However," Guan Zhuofan said, "my 'original idea' is a ...... Well, 'long-term thinking'. Xinjiang's 'self-reliance' is at least a matter of one or twenty years later, at the beginning of the establishment of the province, it is like a baby croaking to the ground, and it will not be able to climb yet, so it is naturally impossible to stand on its own! ”

After a pause, "Besides, 'a game of chess in the northwest', in this game of chess, the one who is in charge of the game is Zuo Jigao, so it is necessary and ...... to put Xinjiang under the management of the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu Suitable. ”

Prince Xuan's remarks about "a baby croaking to the ground," "a game of chess in the northwest," and "a game of chess" have left a deep impression on several large military planes, and at the same time, everyone has also heard it: In Prince Xuan's plan, "Shaanxi, Gansu, and Xin" are combined, no matter how long or short the time, is always an expedient measure, and in the future, Xinjiang will always have to be separated from Shaanxi and Gansu.

When is it "separated"? I can roughly guess it: if everything is normal, it should be time for Zuo Jigao to leave office.

"As for the 'Shaanxi and Gansu' of the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, what should be changed to ......?"

Guan Zhuofan groaned slightly, "Well, the 'Governor of the Northwest' that Bochuan just said, I think it's very good, the name is worthy of the truth, let's call it the 'Governor of the Northwest'!" ”

"'Governor of the Northwest', good!" Cao Yuying said with a smile, "The three provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu, and Xinxia are under your command, comparable to Zhili and Liangjiang, and Zuo Jigao can be high-spirited!" ”

Guan Zhuofan smiled and said: "Coming together has the benefits of being together, but there are also troubles when being together!" The biggest trouble is that Xinjiang is too big and too far away! ”

After that, he stood up, walked to a large cabinet in the corner, opened the cabinet door, took out a roll of maps, walked back and spread it out on the table, Wen Xiang and Xu Geng, helping to compact the corners with a paperweight.

"Look, everybody—"

Guan Zhuofan's fingers were dotted in Xi'an Mansion in Shaanxi, and then moved to the left, diagonally and diagonally, until Dihua in Urumqi stopped.

"The seat of the 'Governor of the Northwest,'" said Guan Zhuofan, "whether it is located in Xi'an, Shaanxi, or Lanzhou, Gansu, it is a long way from Dihua."

After a slight pause, "Don't talk about Xi'an, if the 'Governor of Northwest' takes Lanzhou as his governing place, please see, Lanzhou is farther away from Dihua than from Beijing!" ”

Xinjiang is big, Xinjiang is far away, and there is nothing that the big military planes don't know, but when the map is in front of them, they still can't help but gasp lightly when they compare the two distances that Prince Xuan said.

"This is just to Urumqi," Wen Xiang said in a deep voice, "Urumqi is in northern Xinjiang, if you continue to go west and south—"

Speaking of which, he stopped and shook his head slightly.

"Yes," Cao Yuying said, "for example, if it weren't for the very special circumstances of Urumqi to Hotan, you wouldn't be able to go south directly, so you would have to go through the desert -- you have to walk around the desert and go around in a big circle!" ”

I looked at the map carefully, and then silently calculated, "I see, just this section of the road - Urumqi to Hotan is not closer than Lanzhou to Jingshi!" ”

"'There are troubles when you put them together'-" Xu Gengshen said, "I understand what the prince meant, the 'Governor of the Northwest' is stationed in Xi'an or Lanzhou, which is too far away from Xinjiang, and within three or five years, the 'Governor of the Northwest' may not be able to go to Xinjiang once, this ...... It's a pity that the whip can't reach it. ”

Everyone nodded slightly: the whip is beyond the reach of the whip - it is true.

"That being the case," said Guo Songtao, "the chief officer of Xinjiang, the governor and the vassal, must be particularly effective. ”

"Not bad! However, it is not enough for the two chief officials to fight alone," Wen Xiang looked solemn, "The officials below, the provinces, departments, prefectures, and counties, must also be effective. ”

That is to say, in terms of "material resources", Xinjiang naturally cannot stand on its own feet, but in terms of "manpower", it must still have the ability to stand on its own.

Xinjiang is a province, and the first governor should be Zhan Donglu; The first political envoy should be Liu Jintang -- at this level, several big military planes have a number in their hearts.

Zhan Ke'an and Liu Yizhai are both "particularly powerful", so don't worry; However, it is difficult for "the officials at the bottom, the provinces, departments, prefectures, and counties must also be effective"!

The reason is very simple: Xinjiang is far away and bitterly cold, and people from the mainland, who go to Xinjiang to become officials, feel that they are not much different from "filling the army" and "distributing them".

However, at the beginning of the establishment of Xinjiang Province, except for very few cases, locals must not be used for important positions.

Therefore, Xinjiang's provinces, departments, prefectures, and counties must use people from the mainland, and they must be "willingly" -- otherwise, if they want to leave when they come, how can they do a good job?

Cao, Xu, and Guo were silent, all having a sense of trickiness.

Wen Xiang sighed and said, "I know that this is not easy - not many people may be willing to go to Xinjiang to gnaw sand, even if they are 'willing', it is not necessarily appropriate-"

After a pause, his face became solemn, "To tell the truth, the rebellion broke out, resulting in a situation that swept Shaanxi, Gansu, and Xin, and the inaction of the local officials was not for no reason!" There is such a group of beetles, the emperor is far away, and the whip of the court is beyond the reach, after taking office, they are clever and robbing, fishing and hunting back to women, doing nonsense, and being unscrupulous! The further you go to the northwest, the more serious this situation becomes! ”

Speaking of this, he gritted his teeth slightly, "I thought that half of this chaos was forced out by these bastards!" ”

Oh, Guan Zhuofan thought to himself, Wen Bochuan, we are heroes and see the same!

Just as he was about to speak, Guo Songtao patted his thigh and said, "Bochuan's words can be described as true!" ”

Guan Zhuofan had no choice but to swallow his words back.

"There is a kind of people," Guo Songtao said, "whenever there is a new policy in the imperial court, it will take the opportunity to make trouble, change tricks, and take advantage of it. Bochuan is called a 'bastard', and that's what he is talking about! ”

turned to Guan Zhuofan, "Lord Wang, I remember that after Zuo Jigao entered Gan Kefu Dong Zhiyuan, he folded his request, 'Break the grammar, visit Gansu personnel, and act as the seals of Qingyang Prefecture and County'——"

After a pause, "Originally, locals do not become local officials, this is the rule of the imperial court, but Ji Gao thinks that the northwest is barren, if people are selected and transferred from the mainland, many people may not be willing to come, and most of those who are willing to come are scoundrels and inaction-this kind of people are willing to take risks and endure hardships, but the only purpose of being an official is to scrape the ground and put them in Gansu, which has just passed the chaos, and it will not be long before the people will be stirred up again!" ”

Guan Zhuofan nodded: "Yes, this kind of person believes in it, but it is only seven words - 'Thousands of miles to be an official is only for money'!" If they don't want to get rich, how can they be willing to go to the northwest to gnaw sand? Moreover, this kind of person scrapes the ground, is ruthless, has no scruples, and is not comparable to ordinary corrupt officials! ”

After a pause, "After the chaos in the northwest, recuperation and resumption of production are the first priorities, and this kind of person must not be allowed to get into it and make matters worse for the place!" Therefore, Zuo Jigao's request was approved by the imperial court. ”

"Zuo Jigao used 'breaking the grammar' and locals as local officials," Cao Yuying said, "to circumvent the seal of unscrupulous people and harm the people, although the intentions are good, but after all, it is only an expedient measure at an extraordinary time." Qingyang Prefecture can do this, but Gansu Province can't do it all, otherwise, the rule of the imperial court that 'locals do not be local officials' will be gone. ”

Speaking of this, he accentuated his tone, "This 'expedient measure' is especially difficult for Xinjiang to learn." ”

The reason why Xinjiang "can't learn in particular" has already been mentioned earlier -- although the people who "act in charge of the seals of Qingyang Prefecture and County" are native of Gansu, they are all Han in the end; There are not many Han people in Xinjiang, if "locals are local officials", not to mention the rules of the imperial court, a group of Uyghurs, departments, offices, and counties, wouldn't they have returned to the old road of "Berke"?

After going around in circles, we still returned to the original point: how can we find enough "capable" people from the interior to meet the needs of Xinjiang's provincial construction?

It's so hard.

There was a moment of silence.
