Ch-9

January-June 1921

With the military researching in there black sites and Imperial Russia position on the world stage ever improving Anastasia decided it was time to secure the borders and more natural resources secured for the future, and with the collapse of the Qing Dynasty and Qing Republic China was a mess of warlords and rebels, and I didn't plan on China becoming the power house it could become.

In addition the communist party of china has been established and I would not let that stand. One with two communist neighbors I knew they would band together, while I trusted my technology and soldier to fight well, the Chinese had more men to throw into a meat grinder that would be the front.

Second I could let a united China exist, so plan Broken throne was developed with the help of my generals and my Manchurian advisors.

—————

Deep in the heart of the Place of Vladivostok was a meeting of the most powerful people of Imperial Russia; Czarina Anastasia, Toghonemur Tikhonovich Minister of culture, Jiang Jia the leader of the Manchuria front, Utyuzhin Lavrentiy of the Western Fornt and Kokohos Kus Bulad leader of the Mongolian Front.

On a massive oak table was a pile of various maps, technical documents, and troop movements over the last couple of months.

Ana-"Good morning everyone, now we are gathered here today because of this." Ana then threw a Chinese newspaper onto the table which slid down to Toghonemur who read the front page.

COMMUNISTS IN CHINA?!

The communist party of China had been founded they were Already making in roads to various "intellectuals" across China.

Ana face held non of the normal warmth and passion it normally had instead a face of hardened steel and quit rage held her visage.

Ana-"We are going to handle this and the Chinese problem NOW." Ana slammed her fist into the table and its impact echoed off the in painted concrete walls, then took a deep breath and looked over her notes for the meeting. "We must handle the Communists immediately, I have developed much to my horror a nerve agent that is practically undetectable my current means. I propose that one of the Okhrana infiltrate and destroy there enter organizations."

Ana knew that she don't need to propose anything rather order it but, while she had a great amount of knowledge she isn't a military strategist.

Jia-"I completely agree with her majesty we must not let communism spread and to have another on our borders will only de stabilize the country." While competent was very much a yes man due to him being the highest placed Chinese man in the country.

All the men in room nodded to varying degrees of enthusiasm Toghonemur a man who is married to a Korean woman and himself a Mongolian knew the oppression of the Chinese government.

While Lavrentiy was uncomfortable at the idea of intervening into another countries politics in such a abrasion way, But he understood the reasons for the intervention he had already had seen people fleeing from the communists in west and the oppression they lived under.

Ana-"Good, now I'll give the order to Okhrana take care of the situation and monitor the various warlords for any other communist popping up in China." She then straitened her dress and collected her self. "In other Chinese news the Qing are continuing to collapse in on themselves and publicly the world is happy to let them collapse but from what we have seen the western world is choosing their favorite warlords and propping them up.

Sadly we must also choose our warlords as the Japanese have begun expanding there military presence in Korea and building up there navy quickly and our analysts predict that they will have the third largest navy in the world by 1935.

So I propose Yang Zengxin of Xinjiang as he is one of the least monstrous and is actually managing his people and nation well, next is The Ma clique or Ma family warlords both of these groups are politically oppressed Muslim people who looking for political backing abroad."

Ana then passed an intelligence report detailing the two warlords and there policies.

—————————-

WARNING TOP SECERT

Xinjiang Clique, currently ruled by Yang Zengxin a Chinese national currently leading the "Rebel State" of Xinjiang

He took control of the region in 1907 and declared independence with a number of other provinces of the previous Qing Republic around 1920s.

This was done with the assistance of Hui Muslim and other local peoples no longer having faith in the Qing government with the death of the last emperor, As the Hui and Yang are monarchist and believe no nation can survive without a strong leader figure.

As for his political stances and policies while ruling the nation he has expanded the rights of minorities and religious groups while strengthening the faith in his government by buying arms from various western powers.

But he has gone on record stating "Beware of associating themselves with a people who are entirely without religion and who would harm them and mislead their women" about the Soviet who have borderlines banned religion.

He is currently harboring thousands of Russian loyalists who have begun returning to Imperial Russian lands while others are acting as teachers, but he has begun making political moves to reach out to the Soviet to buy large amounts of western weapons.

It is the option of the Okhrana that immediate action is recommended to prevent the Soviets from gaining more allies and natural resources like oil and natural gas, our analysis recommend economic investments in there oil extraction and other heavy industries to make them rely on Imperial imports for food and other luxuries.

——-

Ma clique, run by the Ma family. The Ma family, like Yang he was educated in Islam but he like the rest of him family converted upon declaring independence from the Qing republic

They are the most outspoken In diplomacy and political maneuvering of the warlord states, this is do to the three branches of the Ma family working extremely well with one another and not seizing power from one another.

The current patriarch of the Ma clan Ma Bufang, a well educated man in both traditional Chinese fashion in addition to becoming a well respected imam he is a genius statesmen.

His policies of expanding civilian infrastructure via foreign investment while also limiting there influence of the western powers in there nation.

Again it is the opinion of the Okhrana that immediate action take place to limit the spread of the Western powers like Britain, France and USA in Eastern Asia. Investments civil infrastructure is recommended but also access to water is best.

As much of the region is desert or badlands and access to drag water is hard to find, so mega projects to bring water to harsher climates.

We believe the Czarina could develop massive pipelines from the sea and desalinate the water to make a massive lake of the Inner Mongolian region.

The group looked over the intelligence report and maps that detailed further the various personalities of the leaders and majors figures of the two nations.

Till Kokohos Kus Bulad broke the silence and side discussion, "I fully support this idea, these regions contain thousands of Mongolian peoples and have a historical precedent for our people. I can also speak as a private citizen of the province of Mongolia our people's standard of living have only improved since your rule began, so I see no moral issue with these plans."

Giving the man a nod Ana looked to the rest of the men and looked for any questions or concerns for the puppeting of these nations.

Then Toghonemur Tikhonovich Minister of culture raised a hand, "So long as there cultural identities and the policies of protection are expanded to them as well, But I am excited for the future and have faith in you your majesty."

So plans and policies were drawn up for investment in the two nations, it would be a long process of negotiation and with the help of perks like Propaganda and Indoctrination these tow nations will prosper under Imperial Guidance.
