On November 1, 1928, the Northwest Military Government electrified the whole country and established the Huaxing Party. With the goal of rejuvenating the nation, it put forward the slogan of overthrowing imperialism and pursued the concepts of "freedom and democracy, industry to save the country, equality and harmony, justice and rigor". Zhang Yunhan was elected As Chairman of Xingdang Party, Lu Bohan, Long Tai, Guman and Zheng Lien were elected as Vice Chairman.
As soon as the news came out, the entire northwest government and military personnel joined in one after another. However, the Huaxing Party had a requirement that no party member should voluntarily withdraw from the party or leak party secrets. A continuous sitting system was implemented. If one person rebels against the party, his whole family will be implicated.
Of course, party members also have advantages. Promotion and salary increase are given priority, and entering government work is a mandatory requirement. Of course, these actions of the Northwest Army did not cause any big repercussions across the country, but the response was great under the rule of the Northwest Army. All the traders, entrepreneurs, drivers, soldiers, farmers, and government workers who came and went applied to join.
In mid-November, the first Northwest Military Party Congress was held. Representatives from all over the country attended the meeting. The meeting proposed the first five-year plan. It was proposed that by the end of 1933, industrial output value would reach 10 billion yuan, steel production would reach 8 million tons, and oil production would reach 10 billion yuan. To reach 10 million barrels.
Zhang Yunhan knew that the global economic crisis was coming soon. While the domestic currency is still the ocean, the world economic crisis will only cause the international silver price to drop, which is equivalent to the devaluation of the domestic currency. Domestic goods are priced in silver dollars, and the international price will only be lower, which is conducive to exports, and the price of imported goods is high. Northwest Business can take advantage of this period to capture the domestic market and radiate internationally.
Economic development will only be faster in the future.
Of course, on the other hand, compared to the principal, those warlords did not seize the opportunity under the favorable conditions of economic development. Although there was a fact that the private sector developed light industry, there was no national level, or a few warlords vigorously developed heavy industry. It would be of little help to the upcoming Anti-Japanese War. China did not take advantage of the Great Depression of the old capital powerhouses to improve its overall national strength. At that time, the principal was still excluding dissidents and clamoring about who challenged the central government and who was a reactionary. The meat has grown, but it is all fat and has no muscles. But Lao Maozi is different. Lao Maozi is in sharp contrast with the country. During the same period of the Great Depression, Lao Maozi took the opportunity to introduce a large number of technologies and equipment from developed countries and basically achieved industrialization, which played a role in the future war against Germany. The pivotal role also laid the foundation for being able to stand in the world with the bald eagle in the future. Compared with Lao Maozi, everyone else is building tanks, but they are making rifles, grenades, powerful artillery, and aircraft all by themselves. How can they win head-on during the war with Japan?
On December 1, 1928, Marshal Zhang sent a telegram to Northeast China to change the flag, marking the end of the Northern Expedition.
In a certain mansion in Jinling.
"Yunong, have you found this information about Yun Han?"
"Principal, we have searched for a long time, and we only know that he is from Longdong and speaks an authentic Qingcheng dialect. Nothing else can be found."
"Niang Xipi! What do you do for food!"
The old man was silent for a while: "Where is the army? Can the army sneak in? I don't believe you give money to those high-ranking officials. Everyone doesn't like Dayang."
Dai Yunong looked at the principal helplessly: "After using it, none of our people came back alive."
"Niang Xipi! Then start from other places, send people to buy shares in those industries, place our people in place, and find a way to do it!"
"There are government agencies that sent people to put me in. I don't believe it. How can he be a steel plate? People always have shortcomings."
Dai Yunong repeatedly said yes and then withdrew.
The principal has a headache. Although the country is officially unified now, there are still Zhang Yunhan from the northwest, Feng Jishan from the Central Plains, Yan Baichuan from Shanxi Province, and the Fengcian faction in the northeast still doesn't know what the situation is.
In his opinion, other warlords were all in disarray, but these were different.
The principal is trying to think of ways to weaken these opponents again, which is nothing more than bribery, assassination, and political manipulation, and he, the bald man, is the best at it.

"The system releases a patch. Due to an error in the installation package, the patch is released now. The average number of 300 million biochemical soldiers for 5★ talents will be one person, and the number for 4★ will be reduced by half. No compensation."
Zhang Yunhan:? ? ?
My damn meow!
Talent halved? Nonsence! Reduce it by 2/3!
Fortunately, the system patch was released late, otherwise he would have nowhere to recruit talents.
The third batch of infantry cadets will also graduate. When the army expands again, infantry cadets can serve as platoon commanders at the grassroots level. Cooperating with system soldiers, a combat-effective unit will emerge.
By the end of December 1928, the Northwest Army had 3 corps and 6 brigades under its jurisdiction.
Each army has three divisions and a howitzer regiment, with a total strength of more than 40,000 people.
Each brigade has 8,000 men and has three regiments of 2,500 men, serving as local garrison forces.
More than 30 militia groups from various places have begun to be reorganized into third-line troops. In fact, there are more than 30,000 people in total, because there is currently no major war.
Although there is no big war, it does not mean that Zhang Yunhan will not take action. At a high-level meeting in October, Zhang Yunhan clearly stated his plan to capture Xinjiang Province.
Why mention Xinjiang Province?
In 1924, Ulyanov died of illness. After a series of political struggles, Big Beard obtained the supreme leadership of Lao Maozi, beginning his nearly 30-year rule.
When he turned his eyes to the East, he found that there were too many "unsolved cases" left over from the Tsarist Russia era on the long border between China and the Soviet Union. Tsarist Russia was originally a European country and did not border on China. However, after several centuries, With the expansion, its forces invaded the Chinese border, forming three disputed borders in the west, middle and east. By the time of the bearded man, there were Xinjiang province issues in the western section of the border; Outer Mongolia issues in the middle section of the border; and issues such as the China-Eastern Railway in the Northeast on the eastern section of the border.
The China Eastern Railway was taken back by force in 1929 by the Young Marshal, and everyone in Outer Mongolia understands this.
In the three sections of the border, the bearded men have their own plans. Xinjiang Province is close to Mao Zedong, and only when Xinjiang Province is stable can Lao Maozi rest assured to engage in economic construction; Outer Mongolia has established its own political power, and Lao Maozi's troops are still stationed in Outer Mongolia, so there is no need to worry; there are chickens in the northeast who are eyeing the fire, so you can watch the fire from the other side and act according to the situation. .
Therefore, the bearded man first set his sights on Xinjiang Province.
In 1851, the Qing government was forced to sign the "Ili Tarbahatai Trade Regulations" with Russia. This seemed to be just a trade charter, but in fact it was the first unequal treaty between China and Russia, and Tsarist Russia opened the door to Xinjiang Province.
In 1860, the Second Opium War ended when the British and French forces invaded Peiping. Tsarist Russia considered itself "effective in mediating" and forced the Qing government to sign the "Beijing Treaty", which stipulated that the demarcation of the western border between China and Russia would be handled by officials from both countries. "Investigation impartially", exchanging notes and maps.
Starting from August 1862, the two sides held many negotiations to demarcate the western border. Under military pressure from Tsarist Russia, in October 1864, representatives of the Qing government were forced to sign the "Record of Demarcation of the Northwest Boundary." This unequal treaty will extend from Amuha Mountain in the north to Congling in the south, from the Aigus River, Balkhash Lake, and Talas River in the west to the Ili Nine Cities and Talbahatai Appeasement City in the east. Square kilometers of territory were assigned to Tsarist Russia. The Yili region, which was originally located in the central area of Xinjiang Province, suddenly became a border area.
