#595 - Chaos and development coexist

And so, another year passed, bringing the calendar to 1929.

After a year of consolidation and maneuvering, the Nanjing National Government had largely taken control of the old territories of China, even stationing officials in the Vladivostok area for oversight.

Compared to the normal historical trajectory, the situation faced by the Nanjing Republican government at this time was undoubtedly much better.

With the help and assistance of a large group of Adepts, many of the great powers' claws were removed without the government even needing to intervene much.

Furthermore, with Liang Yue's overt deterrent, those imperial powers did not dare to act too recklessly.

As for Japan, it was now tightly restricted and subject to heavy suppression.

The Northeast region, which originally should have been most heavily infiltrated by them, had their forces driven out directly due to Liang Yue's intervention and the joint efforts of many Adepts.

In the dark, they could only engage in some minor actions; the train explosion that killed Marshal Zhang before was actually the most serious incident that had occurred in recent years.

It would be absolutely impossible for them to pull together some remnants of the former dynasty and establish a puppet Tatar state in the Northeast as in real history.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that, seeing their plans of many years being extinguished invisibly, and only being able to domineer on the Korean Peninsula,

The Japanese became enraged and ultimately concocted a train explosion…

Due to the combined influence of several factors, the Northeast region in the current myriad worlds has become stable.

With the Zhang family's army stationed openly, and the Dao Alliance secretly working together with the local Shaman families, the social environment is relatively harmonious.

The region is rich in natural resources, closely connected to Outer Northeast, and the industrial production lines left by the Bear Country are not far away in Vladivostok.

In addition, Liang Yue intentionally or unintentionally provides some support ~

Therefore, the Northeast is now beginning to become increasingly prosperous, and after years of development, it has become an important industrial base within China, attracting many domestic and international capital investments.

Some industrial cluster effects are already beginning to emerge.

Large numbers of merchants and laborers from all over the country are also beginning to gather here on a large scale.

However, compared to the gradual prosperity and rise of the Northeast, the situation in other areas controlled by the Nanjing government does not seem so good.

Although China at this time has ostensibly restored peace and unity, and the various powers of the great powers are being continuously compressed,

This is actually just a superficial phenomenon. The old Northern Warlord faction that was entrenched in the north has indeed been eliminated, but new warlords have emerged.

Those who were originally members of the Southern government, military leaders, and former Northern members who had defected to the South, after adapting to the new environment, began to act independently.

With military power in their hands, they were all unwilling to be lonely.

Whether it was for the sake of vying for power and profit, or for the sake of their own justice, in short, even though China has now ostensibly returned to one family, various conflicts have not diminished as a result.

Among them, there are naturally many external forces fueling the flames, secretly funding and instigating.

However, within the Nanjing government, there had already been a situation of factionalism and uneven distribution of interests.

When they were jointly fighting the Northern Expedition to conquer the country, they still had a common goal that could barely unite them, but now that it was time to rule the country, all kinds of demons and monsters began to run rampant.

This situation is not only occurring at the military level, but also in the field of government administration, where there are also many conflicts.

Various agents, comprador classes, and officials and parliamentarians who support Chinese private enterprise and advocate reform and self-improvement are all displeased with each other.

Although they cannot directly use force because they do not have troops in their hands, the various small tricks in the dark are equally insidious and fiercely fought.

Under this situation, the Dao Alliance members, who originally thought that the north and south should now be unified, the world would be peaceful, and China would soon enter a period of stability and harmony, could not help but be disappointed.

This time, they did not even need Liang Yue to do any psychological counseling for them, and they extinguished the thought of publicly expressing their attitude, supporting national unity, and then retiring after success.

The troubled times have not ended, and powerful enemies are still watching from the periphery. They have not been able to complete the decrees passed down by their ancestors, and they still have a long way to go ~

Of course, the first choice is definitely to join someone's Flowing Cloud Sect, followed by other long-standing Taoist sects…

… …

During the past ten years, although Liang Yue spent most of his time in seclusion for cultivation, or busy with some internal affairs of his own mountain gate,

But at this time, he is no longer alone after all.

Not to mention the disciples in his own Flowing Cloud Sect who are growing up day by day.

Even if it was just the few military industrial enterprises that he casually took out in the beginning, just for self-sufficiency and to maintain the daily operation of the sect.

Now, it is already very different ~

Under the leadership of some operators who grew up from this industry, the scale of the arsenal has been continuously expanded, and then it has gradually begun to extend to the upstream of the industrial chain.

In addition, Liang Yue from time to time takes out some relevant production equipment, production lines, etc. from his collection and puts them into it.

Nowadays, the factory production range under his Flowing Cloud Sect has reached a whole industrial chain from steel smelting to military industry related, and then to civilian market related equipment and products.

It is no longer limited to the development model of the arms factory, such a path of arms dealers.

Moreover, driven by Liang Yue's industry, Xi'an City and even the entire Guanzhong region have gradually developed into a heavy industry industrial park similar to the Northeast region.

A large number of related merchants, workers, and people have begun to depend on this area for their lives.

So naturally, Guanzhong has become another prosperous place coveted and coveted by many forces at home and abroad.

It's just that, because this is Liang Yue's lair and the location of the Flowing Cloud Sect's mountain gate, and there are Adept forces such as Quanzhen Taoism, Mount Hua, and even Shaolin nearby.

Therefore, some related forces and organizations dare not be too presumptuous.

At least on the surface, no one dares to dispatch troops here and fight openly with swords and guns.

In order to be able to cope with the wars and disputes in the long period of time to come, Liang Yue had already started preparing a few years ago.

He specially spent money to hire many local farmer masters to help open up farmland during the slack farming season.

Some were directly ordered to reclaim terraced fields on some relatively gentle slopes, while others required Liang Yue to take action to flatten large undulating hills into layers of connected land.

For planting wheat, wheat, corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes, etc.

Between the mountains and forests, many chicken, duck, sheep and pig farms, fertilizer plants, etc. have also been set up.

For this reason, Liang Yue even used the infinite water source magic, which was considered a fairy method by the locals, more than once to build a large number of reservoirs and storage lakes in some barren mountain gullies and low-lying areas.

It is like this every year, and labor will be hired every year to cultivate the previous wave.

Some people who have no support and no place to stand are directly hired as long-term workers.

Over the past ten years, tens of thousands of acres of land have been reclaimed in the surrounding area under Mount Taibai.

I just don't know how many victims these lands can save after a disaster year really comes.
