    In order to solve the chaotic administrative planning situation in Northeast China, Zhang Hanqing proposed to cancel the larger road divisions in the early Republic of China and replace them with smaller prefectures and cities, turning it into the familiar three-level system of provinces, cities (prefectures), and counties in later generations.  In the past, there were only four roads in Jilin (for the four-way patrol and preparation roads established in 1908), and there were only three roads in Heilongjiang Province (Longjiang, Suilan, Heihe, and later added Hulun Road), and there was also the Middle East Road affiliated area.  The de facto "Eastern Province Special Area" has always been a restricted area outside administrative jurisdiction, and its administrative setting is extremely unreasonable.

    When Heilongjiang becomes a safe place, it is necessary to set up a larger provincial area.  As a result, the entire territory of the Middle East Road and the North Manchuria Line was merged with the original Heilongjiang area, and 18 counties under the jurisdiction of Heilongjiang's two roads: Binjiang Road and Yilan Road were drawn from Jilin to form the new Heilongjiang Province.

    Originally, Qiqihar was the provincial capital of Heilongjiang, but after Russia built the North-Manchuria Railway, Harbin¡¯s location advantages soon became apparent.  Because Harbin is located at the node from Changchun to Harbin and from Manzhouli to Suifenhe, its geographical location is very important and it is a relatively prosperous city. Therefore, when Zhang Hanqing was suppressing bandits, he moved the main military and political offices of Heilongjiang from Qiqihar to Harbin, which eventually replaced Qiqihar as the  The new provincial capital of the Black Province, this is also the fourth provincial capital of the Black Province.

    Harbin is brightly lit at night. It has successively built the largest soybean trading market in the Far East, a grain distribution base in Northeast China, and an important trade center in northern China. Harbin, which was originally a small water port, has become the largest city in the Far East.  After the revolution in Russia, many old Russian aristocrats who were dissatisfied with the Soviet regime immigrated to China with their families.  Because of this factor, Zhang Hanqing decided to first use Harbin's unique role to attract foreign investment.  He enacted several bills within one month of the New Deal, which greatly improved the problem of insufficient funds.

    Fengtian Province and the provincial capital also changed their names.  The original Fengtian City was originally called Shenyang. When Hou Jin moved the capital here in 1625, it was renamed Shengjing, which means "Fengtian Carrier".  The Qing Dynasty is gone, and this place name that is easy to associate with people should return.

    Because Zhang Zuolin now has to consider the impact: as his power expands, the central government has to listen to his words.  After Zhang Xun's restoration, Yang Du, who was once hailed as the head of the "Twelve Sinners of the Restoration", once approached Zhang Hanqing and asked him to come forward to protect him.  Out of his interest in Yang Du's "emperor's art", Zhang Hanqing also suggested that Zhang Zuolin use influence to request amnesty from the central government.  After getting his wish, Yang Du stayed in Fengtian and became one of Zhang Zuolin's staff.  For this reason, public opinion spread that Zhang Zuolin had ambitions to build the "Liao Empire".  In this regard, Zhang Zuolin said: "We have to take a look at the trend of the world. Does the current trend of world politics still allow the transformation from a republic to a monarchy? To say that I want restoration is a fart from the newspapers." Changing the name is a political attitude  .

    After deliberation for a long time, Zhang Hanqing suggested that Fengtian Province be renamed Liaoning, which means "peace in Liaoning". This was the beginning of the name of Liaoning Province.

    These means that Zhang Zuolin, the strongman outside the customs, had his opinion of "surrendering" to the central government quickly approved by the government.  However, "Feng" is a collective name for a group, but it cannot be erased from people's consciousness.

    Based on this, Zhang Zuolin established provincial cities in the three provinces centered on important cities (military, economic, and transportation). He ensured good roads at the municipal level in the early stage, and then spread them to the county level layer by layer to create a dense  road network.  If you want to be rich, build roads first. This common sense will never go out of style.  As long as the transportation problems restricting Northeast China are solved, with huge energy reserves, abundant population, and vast land, there will be no problem in industrial take-off, and the economy will naturally rise.

    Zhang Hanqing¡¯s thoughts on reforming Northeast China all made Zhang Zuolin¡¯s staff sigh. These novel ideas are so clear, feasible and powerful.  Whether it is the old faction headed by Wu Junsheng, Zhang Zuoxiang, Yu Zhen, and Zhang Jinghui, the new faction headed by Guo Songling, Jiang Dengxuan, Wang Yizhe, etc., or the powerful faction headed by veterans of the two dynasties Sun Liechen, Ji Jinchun, etc., after seeing the changes in the leadership of the New Army  After the changes in de facto cohesion and combat effectiveness, nature and heartfelt support.  After the separation of military and political affairs and the separation of military and police, officers no longer have the possibility to gain strength by grabbing land and plundering people's wealth. The only thing that can bring them opportunities is to have the soldiers and military exploits in hand. For Zhang Hanqing who can  There is also no objection to improving the management level and combat effectiveness of the military.

    In fact, Fengjun was Zhang Zuolin¡¯s private property. No matter how hard he tried, there would not be many people who would object. This was a common problem among warlords in that era.  For Zhang Hanqing, he is busy with work and has no energy to deal with possible opposition. This situation is the best.

    A group of very capable figures from the Republic of China gradually gathered around the People's Party headed by Zhang Hanqing.

    Wang Yongjiang, Mo Dehui, Pan Fu, Liu Shangqing, Zhang Zhenjiu, Wang Shuhan and others who are familiar with finance are all working on Zhang Hanqing's Northeast reform.Come up with suggestions for revolutionary plans.  Because it has been in poverty for a long time, the national economy has developed extremely rapidly, and the Northeast's finances continue to grow.

    Today, Zhang Hanqing's strategic decision-making within the Fengcheng Clique mainly relies on his influence on the three giants of the Fengcheng Clique. With his identity and long-term correct and keen insight, as well as his heartfelt respect for all the veterans, basically  Everyone can get the honor.  In order to provide favorable time for the development of the Feng Clan, Zhang Hanqing actively influenced the leaders headed by Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Zuoxiang, and Sun Liechen, and proposed to "base ourselves within the Pass, develop the economy, hide our capabilities, bide our time, and do nothing." He tried to stay away from the internal warlords in the Pass.  , which was strongly recognized by all senior military and political leaders.

    In fact, as early as May 26, 1918, Zhang Zuolin and Sun Liechen jointly announced: "From the beginning of May, all political affairs in the three eastern provinces and the people of the three eastern provinces will be decided by themselves; and together with comrades from the southwest and Yangtze River provinces, we will take concerted actions; support the law  , foster autonomy, eradicate violence, and promote reunification." This declaration basically guaranteed the two-year war between the Fengcian faction in the north and south of China, enabled a huge economic leap, and improved political and people's power.  Condensation.  From this series of operations, people at home and abroad can vaguely see the ambitions of the young commander, as well as the embryonic form of governance and army building.

    Those who served as high-ranking officials in the army were either old bureaucrats from Beiyang or old bandits who occupied the mountains and became kings with Zhang Zuolin.  Most of these people fail to succeed and fail more than they should.  Due to the lack of generals who can act independently, and few people who have an overall view, it is not possible to complete the replacement of the old and new in the upper echelons of Fengjun.  Objectively speaking, Fengjun's combat effectiveness at this time was not considered strong among the various warlords. It could only be ranked behind Chiang Kai-shek's Central Army, Guangdong and Guangxi Army, and Feng Yuxiang's Northwest Army. This has a lot to do with Fengjun's background as a bandit.  relation.

    However, after land reform and a series of new government measures, the Northeastern Autonomous Government has gradually gained sufficient financial revenue, and its life is much better than two years ago.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
