Volume 9 Undercurrents Chapter 29 Legal Procedures

Gu Weimin is solely responsible for the drafting of the bill. Determining national boundaries is a systematic task. In accordance with international practice, the two countries must reach a preliminary agreement before determining the outstanding state border. Then each survey team was sent to conduct an on-site survey. On the basis of the results of the survey, a new national boundary was determined. Finally, a legally binding border agreement is signed.

Because southern Tibet has always been under the control of India, it is difficult for the republic to unilaterally identify the country

Line.

After the Sino-Indian border conflict in the years of the power century. The Republic has not been able to define the specific extent of southern Tibet, and has not marked a clear national boundary on a map, because it is impossible to conduct field surveys. When Gu Weimin drafted the relevant national border bill, he relied on several tactical maps of the counterattack forces back then!

A few years have passed, and the southern Tibetan region must have undergone earth-shaking changes, and even accurate maps will become outdated.

Obviously, the purpose of this bill is to create conflict, and it is a large-scale conflict.

When his wife Yuanqing made this decision, Gu Weimin knew what Yuan meant.

The passage of legislation to make southern Tibet an inalienable territory of the republic would not only provoke India. It also provided a legal basis for sending troops to recover southern Tibet in the future.

As long as the Act comes into force in the Republic, India will be able to return the southern Tibetan region whether or not it wishes. As long as the time is ripe, Wang Yuanqing can use all means to recover southern Tibet. When the time comes. Not only can it give an account to the international community, but it also does not need to face cumbersome legal procedures.

Gu Weimin had to admire Wang Yuanqing's strategic vision, and even more admired Wang Yuanqing's courage.

What may seem like a draft law with little sharp significance will have an irreversible impact on the world's two most populous countries.

Gu Weimin is taking active action, and Yan Shanglong is also taking active action.

In accordance with Wang Yuanqing's instructions, on February 3, Yan Shanglong officially summoned the Indian ambassador to China to inform the Republic that the Republic was about to establish the "eastern section of the national boundary between China and India" in the form of legislation

The Indian ambassador immediately expressed a strong protest. The claim that the Republic unilaterally set national borders violates international norms.

Protest is protest, and after protest, the Indian ambassador has to send the message back.

For Rurajapani, this is undoubtedly a slap in the face.

The republic's legislative demarcation of the disputed national boundary not only expresses its serious dissatisfaction with India's slow refusal to accept a solution to the southern Tibetan issue. It is also clear that the Republic is already very impatient with India and is seeking legal support for a military solution to the problem of southern Tibet.

At that time, Rurajapani personally summoned the ambassador of the Republic to India, hoping to resume negotiations with the Republic.

According to the message returned by the ambassador to India, Rurajapani even hinted that as long as the republic can return to the negotiating table, India will not only make concessions. Surveyors from the Republic were also allowed to enter southern Tibet.

Undoubtedly, this is a clear concession. It's just completely useless.

Under the circumstances, even if Rurajapani agreed to return southern Tibet immediately, the republic would have tried other ways to create conflict.

On the 4th, the plenary congress was held in Beijing.

Unlike previous years, the President of the Republic and the Chairman of the Plenary Assembly have the right to convene two extraordinary plenary congresses within one year, during which the central government must pay the remuneration of the delegates and bear all expenses during the congress.

This plenary session was convened by Gu Weimin on an ad hoc basis.

This reform is also aimed at speeding up the pace of political reform. With the deepening of political reform, the legislative work of the congress has become heavier. Although the Standing Congress also has legislative power, bills passed by the Standing Congress must be passed at the plenary session of the following year before they can take effect. In order to improve the efficiency of legislation, it is necessary to extend the convening time of the plenary congress. In the absence of a comprehensive promotion of "full-time delegates", the number of plenary congresses can only be increased. Reform is a gradual process that can only be moved forward step by step.

When he died, Gu Weimin submitted the "Law on the Provisional Examination of Undetermined National Borders" to the plenary congress.

Legislating is a very complex undertaking. The law is not a rule that anyone can make, but a coercive force that is binding on all. Only after repeated discussions and revisions. Only a law that strikes a balance between the forces of all parties can be widely supported and a law that is reasonable and effective. As a special tool of social constraint, as long as the law is settled, it will not be easily changed, and changing the law is more troublesome than making the law.

The discussion was intense, and it was completely expected by Gu Weimin.

According to the relevant laws passed before Ji Youguo left office, all deputies can express their opinions at the plenary session of the congress, and each deputy can only speak once during the deliberation stage of a draft law, and as long as the deputies jointly support it, they can revise the provisions of the draft law, or propose new supplementary clauses, amendments, and supplementary clauses that need to be reconsidered. The original intention of the state is to enable the representatives of each stratum to speak for their own strata in the legislative work and have an impact on the law, so that all strata can play a game of national interests. Establish the legal system of the republic. The country also knows that broad participation means inefficiency, otherwise it would not limit the number of times deputies can speak and introduce themselves, so as to improve the efficiency of legislative work.

Wang Yuanqing is a follower of Ji Youguo, so he will naturally unswervingly follow the path designed by Ji Youguo.

Different from the era of Ji Youguo, after the political reform, in addition to the implementation of universal suffrage in the county-level congress, Wang Yuanqing also made adjustments to the system of the plenary congress, such as the establishment of various committees composed of representatives from all walks of life on the basis of the congress, and specifically performed the supervisory duties of the congress. Although the republic does not have the power to expand the congress for the time being. For example, the deputies were asked to draw up draft laws through consultation, but according to the line of political reform formulated by Wang Yuanqing, sooner or later all legislative power would be returned to the congress. At that time, the commissions will not only have oversight functions, but will also be able to act as "professional" advisers in legislative work, fundamentally limiting the executive power of the government.

The goal of reform is ambitious, but the difficulty of the facts is enormous.

According to Gu Weimin's estimate, it will not be possible for the "Provisional Law on National Borders" to complete the legal procedures in three to five days.

Time is not only an issue, but also a matter of the essence.

While the drug substitutes were busy deliberating on the draft new law. Li Cunxun was busy with secret work.

Wang Yuanqing entrusted the CIA with full responsibility for specific actions, which was not only a trust in the CIA, but also a test for the CIA.

Li Cunxun knew very well that what Yuan wanted was a small-scale border conflict, and a few shots and a few shots could achieve the goal. Of course, the Military Intelligence Agency cannot be "all-encapsulated" and needs the support of the General Staff.

There are only two ways to create a border conflict, one is to take the initiative, and the other is to wait for the rabbit.

Because Wang Yuanqing made it clear that India would provoke the conflict, he could only choose the latter.

The so-called "waiting for the rabbit" is nothing more than bribing, instigating, and misleading to make the Indian troops carrying out border patrol tasks or the Indian troops stationed in the border areas cross the border line and enter the Chinese side, or fire at the patrol troops, border posts, border posts, border posts, and other military Japanese targets on the border side of the republic. Whether it is a direct exchange of fire between patrols or an indirect exchange of fire by border troops, such as an artillery battle, as long as the Indian army fires first and has relevant evidence, it can provide the Republic with a reason to fight back on the border.

Relatively speaking, the special forces directly under the General Staff are more experienced in doing these things.

You must know that the Kashmir conflict, which triggered the Fourth Indo-Pakistani War, was created by Pain Chengwen.

Li Cunxun didn't have an axe, and after getting the authorization of Yuan, he handed over the task to Lu Chengwen.

The key is not to create conflict, but how to get the evidence.

In this regard, the Military Intelligence Agency is an expert.

When Lu Chengwen led his troops to Metuo, Li Cunxun began to deploy relevant forces.

To obtain evidence, in addition to relying on special forces, it is necessary to rely on tactical reconnaissance forces. More importantly, the MIA had to determine in advance the number of the Indian troops, the identity of the main Indian servicemen. It was necessary to complete the rebellion before Lu Chengwen led the troops into action.

It's not prolific to execute, it's just a lot of work.

On 7 February, the "Provisional Law on National Borders" entered the final voting stage.

As a representative of the Central Committee, Wang Yuanqing participated in the voting. At least at the plenary congress, Wang Yuanqing's rights are no different from those of other deputies, and he can only cast one vote.

Earlier on that day, under Lu Chengwen's arrangement, a special force led by Yan Ruilin arrived on the north side of the Line of Actual Control between China and India in southern Tibet and put on the jungle camouflage uniform of the border guards. In place of the border guards who were transferred by the military district, they began to carry out border patrol tasks.

It was not until he received the exact news that Li Cunxun left the Military Intelligence Bureau and rushed to Yuanfu.

When he arrived at the Yuan Mansion, Wang Yuanqing was still performing his duties as a representative.

Although Li Cunxun wanted to contact Wang Yuanqing, considering Yuan's overall deployment, Li Cunxun was patient.

In the evening, Wang Yuanqing returned to the Yuan Mansion.

As predicted, after intense discussions and repeated revisions, the "Provisional Law on National Borders was successfully passed, with the support of the overwhelming majority of deputies." In the course of the deliberations, several groups of delegates made changes to the detailed provisions of the law, and several groups proposed new provisions. Compared with the draft drafted by Gu Weimin, the adopted Provisional Law on Undetermined National Boundaries has added an additional authority for the State Yuan to take substantive action to achieve the new national boundaries stipulated in the law. In other words, even if Wang Yuanqing plans to go to war, there will be no legal problems.

For the republic, this is a law of historical significance. This is because there is no clear definition of "undefined borders" in this law. It can be said that this can be seen as a loophole deliberately left by the law-makers, and it is also an entry point for future amendments to the bill.

The final result was much better than Wang Yuanqing had hoped for, and it was clear that Wang Yuanqing was in a good mood.
