Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 614 Population Registration
Half an hour later, in the emergency room of Dongcheng Emergency Hospital, a nurse was being bandaged. The door was full of guards in black uniforms. It was pure luck that this assassination escaped, even if he had been on the battlefield for a long time, Faced with the sudden attack of those killers, he could not escape death. This time, he managed to fight his way out of the hail of bullets. I will never have such good luck again.Because the latest report from the discovery site shows that a huge amount of explosives was installed in one of the Guanghua cars. If the driver hadn't driven the car and knocked it into the air, they would all be finished. Now that I think about it, I feel the explosion In a weird way, it also resulted in his only injury, a gash in the head from the car's sturdy undercarriage.

Just as he was concentrating on being bandaged by the nurse, Xu Shichang pushed the door in and said, "Zhongzheng, are you okay?"

A tall and thin man flashed behind him, held his hand, and asked with concern: "Zhongzheng, I surprised you, and I am also responsible for this matter."

Look up, Zhao Bingjun!I had seen his appearance in the newspaper, but I didn't expect that the director of the Imperial Security Bureau would come to visit me, so I was really flattered. "Lord Zhao, Zhongzheng Weiwei has a humble body, how dare I ask you to come and see me, I am really ashamed, ashamed."

"Zhongzheng, you say that Zhao feels sorry for you even more. This time, it's all because of the security bureau's ineffectiveness. They didn't discover their plot in time, which almost made you suffer. Let's not talk about it. The emperor heard that you were assassinated." After hearing the news, I am very concerned and asked me to come and see you."

Feeling hot in his heart, he said with emotion: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has really shown me great kindness. Zhongzheng can only pour out his blood to repay the holy family."

Suddenly thinking of Bai Chongxi and the chief of the guard, he asked with concern, "The two people accompanying me were seriously injured. How are they doing?"

Xu Shichang comforted: "Zhongzheng, your injury is still not healed, so you should take care of your subordinates first. I asked the doctor just now, and it should be all right. The life of the chief of guard is very serious. A 9mm bullet got stuck in his There is no penetration on the fourth and fifth ribs. If it does, it will affect the lungs, and his future may be over. Bai Chongxi suffered a fracture in his left thigh, and it is estimated that it will take a month to heal .It’s you, I heard that you crashed into the chassis of a car, and you have to undergo a brain observation before you can be discharged from the hospital.”

"I'm fine." He smiled, and then glanced at the nurse who was still bandaging him, "I'm sorry, please go out for a while, I have something important to talk to the two adults."

The nurse immediately left knowingly, and immediately said with a solemn expression: "My lords, what I want to know most now is who did this?"

Zhao Bingjun shook his head slightly: "I have mobilized all the military forces in Beijing to investigate, and so far no trace of the killer has been found. Think about it, Beijing is too big, with a population of millions, and many shops. Those few people just find a place to hide. It takes time to find a needle in a haystack. However, we still found some. From the dead bodies of the killers on the scene and the vehicles and weapons they used, we can conclude that they are not professional killers, but They are a group of experienced soldiers or ex-soldiers. And it can be seen from the make of their firearms that this group should be human."

"Human?" Hearing this, he was not surprised. He had already been hunted and killed by people all over the world, and Beijing was originally populated by expatriates from many countries. It was not surprising that a few killers appeared suddenly. Strange, "Master Zhao, how is the search going? Is there any breakthrough?"

"According to the news I just learned, the police department and military intelligence agents have expanded the scope of the search, and now they have pulled the net within a radius of ten kilometers from the crime scene, but it still takes time, so far We have not found the whereabouts of the suspects, and it is estimated that they have already arranged a retreat and jumped out of our search range."

"I have to trouble Mr. Zhao to help you with this matter." He stroked the wound on his head, thinking silently in his heart.

"Zhongzheng, do you think this assassination was planned and premeditated?" Xu Shichang thought more deeply. He worried that this incident was not a simple assassination. If anti-China forces infiltrated into Beijing, it would be a big deal.

"I don't know!" He groaned and shook his head. "I feel that the assassination this time is a bit strange, especially since I haven't traveled the route this time. How could the other party know?"

"If I'm not mistaken, these people should be soldiers, which is not scary at all. What worries me the most is that this matter was done by internal and external cooperation." Zhao Bingjun analyzed.

The expressions of the three people suddenly became serious. If this is really the case, then the problem is much more complicated than imagined.

At this time, Xiong Bingnan, the director of the Military Intelligence Department of the Security Bureau, came to find Zhao Bingjun, and said as soon as he entered the door, "We have caught, four people."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"Those four boys hid in a village in Shunyi outside the city. The local people felt that these boys were suspicious, so they reported the matter to us. We followed the clues and arrested these boys on the spot. One of them He shot and resisted, and was shot dead by my men on the spot, and the remaining three were captured alive." Xiong Bingnan wiped the sweat from his head.

"Have you been interrogated?"

"Interrogated, these people are junior Kwantung Army officers who escaped from North Korea. They hid in Beijing a month ago, waiting for an opportunity to retaliate against high-ranking officials in Beijing. Later, when our army landed, the Nagasaki massacre killed tens of thousands of people. These few people secretly vowed that one day they would kill Brother Jiang. This time, Brother Jiang went to Beijing to meet the emperor, and somehow they got wind of the news, so they brought guns and ammunition to pre-spot, hoping to seize the opportunity and kill him. They said that the reason why they chose Dongcheng was because they had checked the situation beforehand, there are fewer security personnel here, and the population is denser, and once something happens, it is difficult for security personnel to arrive at the scene quickly."

"Who are they entrusted with?"

"They insisted that it was to avenge the victims of Nagasaki, and no one was in charge."

Zhao Bingjun's eyes flickered: "It seems that there is fraud in their confessions. It seems that it's not just that. From the hiding at the beginning to the stepping on the spot, to today's grasp of the timing of the assassination, someone should be behind the scenes to inform these people, and even do it for them. Backer. But before we have conclusive evidence, we can’t arbitrarily say that this matter must be caused by someone secretly. After I go back and interrogate myself, I must get to the bottom of the matter.”

After leaving the hospital, Zhao Bingjun and Xu Shichang came to see the emperor together, and told the story of what happened today. Guan Xuqing frowned upon hearing this: "Zhi'an, what happened to your security bureau? To be assassinated at the feet of the emperor, if it gets out, won’t the Germans laugh out loud?”

"Yes, your majesty blamed it. It's all because of your ineffectiveness. Please forgive me." Zhao Bingjun said with a stern face.

Xu Shichang saw that Zhao Bingjun was a bit embarrassed to come to the stage, so he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, I can't blame the Security Bureau for this matter. As far as I know, in order to deal with the Sino-Korean and Sino-Japanese wars, most of the military intelligence agents were arranged in North Korea." , and the eastern coastal areas of the empire. Now that the war has just ended, the military intelligence personnel still need to stay for a period of time to prepare for any eventuality. Therefore, the intelligence network in Beijing is a little weaker than before. The blame can only be blamed for not thinking carefully beforehand. With proper protection, if a convoy of convoys had been sent to guard along the route, such a thing would not have happened."

Guan Xuqing waved his hand impatiently: "Stop talking." The hall was silent for a while.Guan Xuqing calmed down and said: "I'm not only thinking about the assassination, but I want to strengthen the security control of the imperial city, so I have to register the population. I also talked with some officials about this matter. It was discussed, but it was delayed due to frequent wars and too little time for planning. In the past, the cities were small in size, and most of the population was distributed in the countryside. If this continues, the imperial court does not have a good grasp of the population and distribution of various places. However, with the development of industry, the urban population is gradually increasing, especially in a big city like Beijing with millions of households. It is easy to be infiltrated by foreign anti-China forces. Once there is a change, it is difficult to control. I decided to start with the capital first, establish a civil affairs department to register the population under the jurisdiction of each area, and establish a clear household registration system. If this method can If it is implemented smoothly, it will be implemented successively in all provinces across the country next year."

"It's still the emperor's foresight. After the household registration system is established, the security bureau can keep track of everyone's situation in the capital at any time, so that Chinese and foreigners can be clearly distinguished." Zhao Bingjun deeply agreed.

"The key is to carry out stricter registration management for foreign nationals and businessmen in the future. All life, old age, sickness and death must be registered in the register. Foreign nationals living in China must be regularly reviewed. Those who do not meet the residence qualifications must leave the country within a limited time. Foreign businessmen can treat them as investment. Properly extend the stay period, but the monitoring cannot be relaxed. For scientists and businessmen with world influence, permanent residency can be established and Chinese nationality can be applied, but strict identity verification must be done in advance. This matter must be done by the Civil Affairs Department and the Security Bureau. "It seems that Guan Xuqing made a decision after considering this matter for a long time.

He also said to Zhao Bingjun: "Now the Security Bureau must concentrate its efforts to search out the remaining anti-China forces in the capital. As long as it is confirmed that they are plotting wrongdoers, they will be taken to the shooting range in the suburbs of Beijing and shot on the spot!"
