Volume Four The Battle of Unification Chapter 677 The Fragile Iron Triangle
Subsequently, the Central Intelligence Department of the National Defense Forces and the State Integrity Commission jointly cracked this private tax case, with thousands of participants, including officials, police officers, families, and gang members. No county in Zhejiang Province can escape, and every county has officials involved in corruption. How can it not cause Wang Maoru to be angry? Anyone who is familiar with Wang Maoru knows that he must start a massacre. He killed corrupt officials, and the reputation of the National Defense Forces is correct.
At the request of the Army Chief Wang Maoru, the Independent Commission Against Corruption filed lawsuits against these corrupt officials as quickly as possible and all escorted them to Hangzhou for trial. This trial is also called the "grasp judgment of corrupt officials". There were more than 70 corrupt officials who were executed, more than 200 gang members who were executed, and more than 100 other crimes were executed. This move greatly shocked officials across the country. Soon, various provinces conducted self-inspection and almost banned the self-established taxes in all places, such as the horse manure tax that entered the city and other taxes. Wang Maoru was also named an official butcher for slaughtering more than 70 officials.
The negotiating delegation headed by Lu Zhengxiang, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of China, arrived in San Francisco, USA on a boat after two and a half months. After staying with the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco and conveying domestic news, Lu Zhengxiang reminded Chinese diplomats working in the United States that China will soon achieve reunification in the past two years. I hope that diplomats will not cause trouble at this time, and will wait until the country is reunified before talking about everything.
The news that Lu Zhengxiang arrived in San Francisco attracted many Chinese people in the United States to visit. At that time, Chinese Americans regarded the Hong family as their respect, and yearned for the motherland but were unwilling to be strong. Domestic warlords fought in a melee. Today you become king, and tomorrow he will take charge of the political situation, which will also make the country fall into a clown in the world and be ridiculed and fooled by others.
Lu Zhengxiang delivered a speech in San Francisco. He highly praised President Xu Shichang's contribution to national reunification and peace. Prime Minister Jin Yunpeng's contribution to the country in civil affairs of people's livelihood, especially saving nearly two million victims, and highly praised the Army Chief Wang Maoru's contribution to establishing the national army, eliminating warlords, and winning dignity for China through several foreign wars. These three formed the iron triangle in which China gradually became unified after the end of the European War in the Republic of China.
The huge poster of the China Iron Triangle of 66-year-old Xu Shichang, 56-year-old Jin Yunpeng, and 35-year-old Wang Maoru quickly published in various American newspapers. The name of the China Iron Triangle was also circulated from Lu Zhengxiang. Chinese people overseas naturally hope that the country will be strong. Only with a strong mother country can they gain respect overseas. Lu Zhengxiang spared no effort to promote the recovery of the Oriental Dragon and promote the various cooperative relationships and contracts reached by China and the United States. The government reached a series of bilateral economic and trade contracts in the American business community, which brought large orders to the US government, which was deeply in the economic crisis at this time, and also attracted the US government to have great expectations for the China Iron Triangle. The largest order was to import more crude oil from the United States. This crude oil was continuously emerging underground. The super-large oil mine discovered from Mexico can be said to be the US government using Mexican resources to earn money from the Chinese. How can the US government be unhappy?
The signing of the Treaty of Washington lasted for a long time. It took four years in history from the end of World War I to 1922, after hundreds of discussions and hundreds of quarrels, the world's first disarmament agreement was finally reached, the full name of the "Washington Naval Treaty". (You can check the specific content of the treaty online. Baidu Encyclopedia is more specific, and Wikipedia is not in detail, so there is no need to elaborate on Simon)
Today, Britain has transformed from a resource dispute to a trade dispute and has evolved into a military dispute, in Australia, a colony far away from Britain. The proud British met the stubborn Japanese. Britain, which had just won the European war, would never allow the glory of the British Empire to be desecrated.
The UK took three steps to impose trade sanctions on Japan. The first step was to support the British manufacturing industry, which greatly reduced Japan's product imports. The trade volume between Britain and Japan was sharply reduced. Japanese companies not only lost large orders, but also resulted in a backlog of domestic goods and a large number of products were hoarded in factory warehouses. Japan had to start dumping goods into Europe. However, the British side's second step was to contact European countries and launch anti-dumping punishments on Japanese goods, which received support from almost all European countries. Japanese goods were officially sanctioned in Europe. Japan's politics
The government was very helpless because the entire European country began to develop and support the domestic economy because of the end of the war, which caused Japan's economy to suffer a cardiac arrest due to the sudden increase in the European war. Subsequently, the United Kingdom carried out a third strike, basically cutting off Japan's import of silk yarn. In Japan's export economy, the export of silk yarn accounts for 40%. It can be said that this third economic blow was enough to make more than 100,000 spinning workers unemployed in Japan... Of course, the world economic crisis was also the reason why Japan's economy suffered a severe blow.
Due to economic setbacks, Japan had to accept the "Washington Navy Sanctions Treaty", and the Japanese government was unable to support the huge navy, and 90% of Japan's military expenditure was spent on the navy. Originally, the conflict between the Japanese army and the navy was very serious. The Japanese economy was severely damaged and had to cut military expenditures. However, this knife not only broke the navy, but also cut the army's expenses. This caused protests from the Army Department, which was originally dissatisfied with the Japanese Staff Headquarters. The army's funds were originally very small, but now they have to cut the army's military expenditures. How could the arrogant soldiers and generals of the army take this breath? Therefore, young officers in the army began to conspire to attack the cabinet, especially when they hated Hara Kei, who was a civilian official, as the Prime Minister of the cabinet, and secretly discussed preparing to assassinate Hara Kei.
At this time (March 10th year of the Republic of China), Lu Zhengxiang's trip to the United States achieved good results, deepening the connection between China and Britain, the United States and France. At the same time, he wandered around the views of Britain, the United States and France, and stated to them the contribution of China's unification to the economy of the three countries. He also promised that even if China is unified in the future, all treatments of Britain, the United States and France in China will remain unchanged, and the concession issue will maintain the original norms, and hope that European countries will support China's unification.
In order to strive for support for domestic unification abroad, the domestic National Defense Forces are also stepping up the pace of reform at full speed. That is, after the Zhejiang Army accepted the reorganization, the Dingwu Army located in Anhui was also reorganized. The Dingwu Army, which had more than 20,000 people, moved westward, brought their families into the Western Regions to supplement the number of Han people and also add the soldiers of the White Tiger Legion. The title of Dingwu Army disappeared from history again and will not appear again in the future. The Anhui Governor was appointed by Lu Tiaoyuan, the former Senate of Anhui. Two armed police brigades were established in Anhui to eliminate bandits and bandits in Anhui.
A large number of National Defense Army soldiers were transferred to police because of streamlining, which strengthened national security. Of course, some people had problems with their style and had a ** phenomenon. In order to promote integrity of officials, the Chief of the Army Wang Maoru proposed to set up a supervisory agency outside the state power department, which was directly under the jurisdiction of the President. One was the Independent Commission Against Corruption Office, which was to inspect the law enforcement of officials by hundreds of officials, and the other was the court trial system not under the jurisdiction of local officials. The Independent Commission Against Corruption Office, as an institution specifically targeting corruption and bribery officials, is to make officials afraid and become a good official.
As a separate judicial body, court trials have the right to judge and are not affected by anyone. The Independent Commission Against Corruption and the Court Court and the Police System complement each other. The Independent Commission Against Corruption targets officials and the police system targets civilians and businessmen. Both have the right to arrest and provide evidence, and do not have the right to judge. Only after the court makes a judgment can a person be called a criminal or innocent. The police arresting any suspect shall not affect the work and life of the suspect, because the suspect is 50% likely to be innocent.
At the same time, the court provides prosecutors, and all judges must start from the most basic lawyer, then be promoted to lawyer, then to prosecutor, be promoted to judge assistant, and finally to third-level judge, second-level judge, first-level judge, ** official. It also stipulates that any attack, threat or intimidation of prosecutors and judges will be punished with the most severe treason that challenges the judiciary and the state. Although the Republic of China learns the advanced foreign system, it is necessary to study the country's advanced system.
He had to learn everything and finally became a four-dimensional person. However, there was one place that he did not study well. The other was the High Court. In Western countries, the Supreme Court was not the Minister of Justice, but in the Republic of China, the Supreme Court was the Minister of Justice, and was also the Minister of Justice, and Jin Yunpeng’s confidant. Wang Maoru proposed that the Court should enjoy unique rights from the State Council and achieve judicial power, but he dug up a piece of Jin Yunpeng.
Of course, the series of demands made by Wang Maoru, President Xu Shichang was very happy. After all, this was a department directly under the jurisdiction of the president, but because it aroused the dissatisfaction of Prime Minister Jin Yunpeng, the proposal was rejected by the State Council.
The Presidential Office and the State Council once again triggered a second dispute between the government and the court because of the power dispute. However, no party can take advantage of the dispute between the government and the court. Wang Maoru did not help each other, but just gradually collected power, waiting for the results of the provincial parliament this year, and waiting for Sun Yat-sen to give him a reply. However, in Wang Maoru's heart, judicial ** is a way that any country must go through. Although it seems inefficient at first, it artificially avoids the phenomenon of being manipulated by the top leader in a place to form a land overlord and emperor.
