"There are nearly 10 million Jews in Europe. How can you manage so much? We're only able to contain a fraction of them. Zhou Bai calculated the cost and couldn't help but be a little worried. Love also needs to consider economic strength. To give a beggar a dollar, you first have to feel if you have a dollar in your pocket.

"It's enough to save a small part. The most important thing for a nation is to save itself, not to expect others to be kind. Meng Xiang also sighed, he didn't know how many Jews there were before, but now he learned that there were only more than 9 million Jews in Europe at this time, but later more than 5 million were killed by the Nazis in one go. The more than 5 million people were driven to death like cattle and sheep, just like many people in China who died at the hands of devils.

"A person must have a heart to help himself before he can talk about saving him. The martial heart of China cannot be abandoned. As he spoke, Meng Xiang remembered the big discussion on the abolition of civilian firearms at the citizens' assembly of the Special Administrative Region.

The people have kept guns for a long time, starting from the Opium War, and the chaos of nearly a hundred years has made the squires and common people all form associations to protect themselves, and it is not possible to count on the government, and having a gun in their hands is the most powerful to speak. In the era when bandits and bandits were scattered and rampant everywhere, losing the gun in their hands was already losing half of their lives to be slaughtered.

Even in the stable special zone, Meng Xiang has not made it mandatory. The storm caused by such problems cannot be controlled in a short period of time, and needs to be closed step by step. After consulting with Tang Yaoshi and others, it was basically the same, but the people did not allow the existence of artillery and machine guns, and even submachine guns were banned. All of these weapons are classified as military weapons and are strictly forbidden to be owned by civilians.

After collecting these weapons, the vanguard army in the SAR is well-armed, and it is not afraid of these militia groups armed with rifles and pistols to plot rebellion.

Just as the plan agreed upon by Meng Xiang and Pharmacist Tang was being implemented step by step, someone added fire to it. A representative of the SAR citizens named Du Ziteng proposed the confiscation of all guns in the SAR and the enforcement of a strict ban on guns.

This stems from the fact that some time ago, people in two villages had a fight over the remarriage of widows, and both sides used guns, although some old-fashioned guns, but still caused the tragedy of 15 dead and 32 injured.

"There should be a total ban on firearms. Every bullet has the potential to kill a citizen. Every gun is a source of instability. At the citizens' congress, Du Ziteng shouted.

"The iron hooves of the Kou are trampling on our Chinese land, and everyone needs to take up arms to defend our country. If we don't pick up guns, do we let our citizens fight with bayonets with their bare hands? Someone immediately retorted.

"Defending against aggression is first and foremost a matter for the military. Now we are thinking only about the affairs of the SAR. The SAR has our vanguard army to protect it, and at this time, the bandits have been eliminated, the people are living in peace, and the cowards have not been brought in. There should be no more guns in the settled SAR. If there is a need to defend against the field, our young people can go to the Vanguard Army! Du Ziteng replied.

"Now that our vanguard army has captured Shijiazhuang and Beiping, in addition to Tianjin, the land of Heyan and Jingjin is all in my hands, and these places still need to be restructured and managed. There are still stubborn hostile elements, bandits, and troubles, and our citizens are still needed to defend themselves with guns. ”

"Attention! All I'm talking about is our SAR! Those places are not yet included in the SAR area! General Meng also said that the SEZ is an experimental platform. We need to implement a gun ban in the SAR first, and then roll it out to the outside world. If you want the people to live in peace, you can't live in the sound of gunfire every day. This calls for a total ban on firearms. Otherwise, once someone rushes again, it is easy for the gun to cause another tragedy. ”

"Is it necessary to set up barriers for the communication between our SAR and the 7th War Zone, and set up checkpoints to specifically check guns? We have banned guns here, but there are still many guns in other areas, how to resist the invasion of these people? With the police strained and the military fending off foreign enemies, in the event of an accident, first of all, we citizens need to have the ability to defend ourselves. ”

"Yes, we need to defend ourselves! The protection of citizens' rights and interests requires the right to self-defense. The folk cook needs the bullets of our citizens to supervise. Someone took the opportunity to interject and agitate.

This caused a flurry of confusion.

"We need a referendum on this issue!" Someone shouted at the end.

At this time, the system of citizens' congresses in the SAR had already been initially established.

At the beginning of each month, the SEZ organizes a general meeting, in which mainly the representatives of the SAR citizens participate, and unlike the county and township citizen representatives, there is almost one citizen representative of the SAR for every 10,000 people. Together with other industry representatives, there are nearly 4,000 people in total. Not all people are required to attend the monthly meeting, but the quarterly and annual meetings are mandatory, and the monthly meeting only requires them to attend more than half of the times.

It is unrealistic to expect universal suffrage from every citizen now. The citizen representatives of each special zone are elected by the village representatives, and the village representatives have been elected by all the elected villagers. Under the idea of Tang Yaoshi, the current rural election method is also very simple, the group representative proposes the candidate, the township managers and villagers supervise the whole process, put a few sea bowls, and whoever agrees votes for a peanut in the bowl in front of him.

Whoever has more peanuts in his bowl will win. Originally, the use of loud copper dollars was used at first, but later some people objected that it was like begging, and changed it to peanuts.

When encountering something difficult to solve, the village collectively decides to throw a peanut for those who agree, and a soybean for those who disagree. Although there are many ways to cheat, the referendum that some people shout under the watchful eye of everyone is this way to go down to the village. But even this method is troublesome, and it has not been implemented once at this time.

"Now we have less difficulty solving the problem of guns. We are not like the Americans, who have the interests of numerous arms dealers behind us. Ordinary people generally do not have guns at home. At this time, it is still appropriate to ban guns. Now that the subsistence allowance has been introduced, people have money in their pockets, and the data on arms transactions has increased. In the long run, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to ban. Li Shuchun also supports the ban on guns and suggests that it should be done in one step. When law and order in the SAR are stabilized, guns will become a major hidden danger. Shootings are frequent, and even teams in the countryside are often shot at them.

Meng Xiang was a little surprised, the people had money in their hands, and they still bought guns? He is now the biggest arms leader in China, but he has dealings with major warlords and other forces. Now the guns, ammunition and artillery he sells have pushed foreign arms dealers aside. As long as it is cheaper than that of foreigners, and there are no other strings attached, the trade of the vanguard army can overwhelm the monopoly of foreigners in the Chinese arms trade.

Even if the weapons and ammunition circulating to the major forces include 75 mountain guns, Czech machine guns, and even pre-World War II armored weapons such as Renault tanks, this is not a big threat to the vanguard army with many heavy weapons, not to mention that the weapons of the vanguard army are still being upgraded.

However, the property in the hands of various warlords and other forces is limited, and the money is in the hands of the vanguard army, which constantly nourishes the economic growth of the vanguard army's territory.

Although Meng Xiang never sold weapons in the Special Administrative Region, he did not expect that after the price of guns was pushed up, some of them would be bought back by the people of the Special Administrative Region. When there is demand, there will be buying and selling.

"It is everyone's responsibility to protect the family and defend the country!" Zhou Bai interjected with a wry smile, "This is a sentence that many people often say recently. ”

He shook his head slightly and said, "Some people are advocating that some rural people buy weapons to protect our policy of not paying the imperial grain and national tax for a long time. Some time ago, a tax collector who collected taxes indiscriminately was kicked out at gunpoint by the villagers of a village. This can be regarded as protecting their own sacred property. Although some of these methods are a bit radical, I still think that guns should be kept to protect private property from being usurped indiscriminately. ”

What he said, Meng Xiang also knew. Although there was also the agitation of outsiders, on the whole most of the propaganda of those people was spontaneous.

"Where in our vanguard army are there so many things that embezzle other people's property?" Li Shuchun said.

Meng Xiang blinked and looked out the window, during this time, he had taken out a lot of things from the hands of many Han Zhan. The phrase that private property is sacrosanct is a bit crooked here. But on the whole, ordinary people have not been harmed, and the average cost is not tragic.

"Just because you don't have it now doesn't mean you won't have it in the future. Power needs to be limited, and political axes need to be supervised. Self-discipline doesn't work! Zhou Bai said categorically.

"A country's national defense preparedness needs to rely on the popularization of peacetime, if the gun is banned, many people may not have touched a gun in their lives, once there is an emergency, it is not enough to rely on the army. As for the national art fist and foot fitness, it is okay, but when it is used in large-scale operations on the modern battlefield, it is still inferior to bullets. Fan Chong answered from the side. Guns have been involved in some military issues, and he has also followed the opposition to the ban on guns.

"We can't expect anyone to be kind, China needs a martial spirit of resistance, whether against foreign enemies or against tyranny. People need to be able to defend themselves, and that's their right. A total ban on guns is not desirable, but restricting guns is inevitable. Meng Xiang spoke, and had to hurry up the original plan, "Even ordinary rifles and pistols have affected the lives of the people, and we will further restrict them in the next step." It can be divided into two standards: military and civilian. ”
