Volume 4 The Battle of Unification Chapter 677 The Fragile Iron Triangle
Subsequently, the CIA of the National Defense Forces and the National Commission Against Corruption jointly cracked this private tax case, and the participants were as high as 1,000 people, including officials, police officers, family members, and gangs. Those who are familiar with Wang Maoru know that he must go on a killing spree, killing corrupt officials, and righteously honoring the reputation of the National Defense Army.
At the request of Army Chief Wang Maoru, the Independent Commission Against Corruption initiated a lawsuit against these embezzlers as quickly as possible, and all of them were escorted to Hangzhou for trial. More than 70 corrupt officials were executed, more than 200 gangs were executed, and more than 100 other heinous criminals were executed. Wang Maoru was also named an official butcher for massacring more than 70 officials.
After staying with the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco and conveying the news from the country, Lu Zhengxiang reminded the Chinese diplomats working in the United States that China is about to achieve reunification in the next two years.
The news of Lu Zhengxiang's arrival in San Francisco attracted many Chinese in the United States to visit him. The domestic warlord scuffle, the political situation in which you are the king today and tomorrow he is the master has also made the country become a clown in the world, being ridiculed and fooled.
Lu Zhengxiang gave a speech in San Francisco. He highly praised President Xu Shichang's contribution to national reunification and peace, Premier Jin Yunpeng's contribution to the country in terms of people's livelihood, especially in saving nearly two million victims, and highly praised Army Chief Wang Maoru's contribution to building a national army, eliminating warlords, and winning dignity for China in several foreign wars, which constituted the iron triangle of China's gradual reunification after the end of the Republic of China after the end of the European War.
Huge posters of 66-year-old Xu Shichang, 56-year-old Jin Yunpeng, and 35-year-old Wang Maoru of China's Iron Triangle were quickly published in various newspapers in the United States, and the name of China's Iron Triangle was also spread from Lu Zhengxiang's mouth. Chinese overseas naturally want their country to be strong, and only with a strong home country can they gain respect overseas. Lu Zhengxiang has gone to great lengths to promote the resurgence of the Oriental Dragon and the various partnerships and contracts between China and the United States. On behalf of the Chinese government, he reached a series of bilateral economic and trade contracts with the American business community, which brought a large amount of orders to the US government, which was in deep economic crisis at this time, and also attracted great expectations from the US government for China's iron triangle. The largest order was for more crude oil imports from the United States. And this crude oil is a steady stream of underground mines, discovered from Mexico, it can be said that the US government uses Mexico's resources to earn Chinese money. How can the US government not be happy.
The Washington Treaty lasted a long time. Historically, from the end of World War I to 1922, it took four years and hundreds of discussions and quarrels to finally reach the world's first disarmament agreement between major powers, known as the Washington Naval Treaty. (You can check the specific content of the treaty online, Baidu Encyclopedia is more specific, Wikipedia is not exhaustive, and Simon does not need to be verbose)
Today, Japan and Britain have changed from a war over resources to a war for trade, and now it has evolved into a military war in Australia, a colony far from the British. The proud British met the stubborn Japanese, and Britain, which had just won the European war, would never allow the glory of the British Empire to be desecrated.
The UK takes a three-step approach to trade sanctions against Japan. The first step was to support the British manufacturing industry, which drastically reduced Japan's product imports, and the trade quota between Britain and Japan fell sharply, and Japanese companies not only lost large orders, but also caused a backlog of domestic goods, and a large number of products were hoarded in factory warehouses, and Japan had to start dumping goods in Europe. However, the second step of the British side was to contact European countries to carry out anti-dumping penalties on Japanese goods, which was supported by almost all European countries, and Japanese goods were officially sanctioned in Europe. The Japanese government was very helpless, because the entire European country began to develop and support the domestic economy because of the end of the war, and then Japan's economy suffered a cardiac arrest due to the European war. Subsequently, Britain carried out a third step of the attack, basically cutting off the import of Japanese silk cotton yarn, which accounts for 40% of the export value of the Japanese export economy. It can be said that this third step of the economic blow is enough to put hundreds of thousands of spinning workers in Japan out of work...... Of course, the global economic crisis has also indirectly contributed to Japan's economic disaster
to the cause of the heavy setback.
Because of the economic setback, Japan had no choice but to accept the "Washington Naval Sanctions Peace Treaty," and the Japanese Government was unable to support its huge navy, and 90 percent of Japan's military spending was spent on the navy. Originally, the contradictions between the Japanese army and navy were very strict, and Japan's economy was hit hard and it had to cut military spending, but this knife was not only cut on the navy, but also on the army. This caused protests from the War Department, which was already dissatisfied with the Japanese General Staff Headquarters, because the Army's funds were very small, and now it is necessary to cut the Army's military spending. Therefore, young and middle-aged officers in the army began to plot against the cabinet, especially they hated the civilian Kei Hara as the prime minister of the cabinet, and secretly prepared to assassinate Hara Kei.
At this time, Lu Zhengxiang's trip to the United States achieved good results, deepening the ties between China and Britain, the United States and France, and at the same time, he wandered around the views of Britain, the United States and France, stating to them the contribution of China's reunification to the economies of the three countries, and on behalf of President Xu Shichang, he promised that even if China was unified in the future, the treatment of Britain, the United States and France in China would remain unchanged, and the concession issue would maintain the original norms, hoping that European countries would support China's reunification.
Complementing Lu Zhengxiang's efforts to support domestic reunification abroad, the domestic national defense forces are also stepping up the pace of reform at full speed, that is, after the Zhejiang Army was reorganized, the Dingwu Army in Anhui was also reorganized, and the Dingwu Army of more than 20,000 people all moved westward, bringing their families into the Western Regions to replenish the number of Han people, and also replenishing the sacrificial soldiers of the White Tiger Legion, the title of Dingwu Army once again disappeared from history, and it will not appear again in the future. The governor of Anhui Province was Lu Tiaoyuan, a former senator from Anhui, and two armed police brigades were set up in Anhui to exterminate bandits and bandits in Anhui.
A large number of Wehrmacht soldiers have been transferred to the police because of streamlining, which has strengthened the country's public security. In order to promote the integrity of officials, the army chief Wang Maoru proposed to set up a supervisory body outside the state power department, which is under the direct jurisdiction of the president, one is the independent office of the government that inspects hundreds of officials and supervises the enforcement of the law by officials, and the other is the court trial system that is not under the jurisdiction of the local governor. The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) is aimed at officials, and the police system is aimed at civilians and businessmen, both of which only have the right to arrest and provide evidence, but do not have the right to judge, and only after the court has made a judgment, a person can be called a criminal or innocent, and the arrest of any criminal suspect by the police shall not affect the work and life of the criminal suspect, because the criminal suspect has a 50 percent probability of being innocent.
At the same time, the court provides prosecutors, and all judges must start with the most basic paralegals, then be promoted to lawyers, then to prosecutors, then to judges' assistants, and finally to third-class judges, second-class judges, first-class judges, and ** officers. It also stipulates that any person or act of attacking, threatening, or intimidating prosecutors and judges shall be punished with the most severe treason for challenging the judiciary against the state. Although the Republic of China learned everything from the advanced systems of foreign countries, and eventually became different, there was one place where it did not study well, and that was the independence of the High Court. In Western countries, the official of the high court is not the Minister of Justice, but in the Republic of China, the official of the Supreme Court is the Minister of Justice, and he is also Jin Yunpeng's confidant. Wang Maoru's proposal that the first court should be independent from the State Council, enjoy separate privileges, and achieve judicial independence, but it was a piece of Jin Yunpeng's meat.
Of course, Wang Maoru put forward a series of demands, President Xu Shichang was very happy, after all, this is a department directly under the jurisdiction of the president, but because it aroused the dissatisfaction of Premier Jin Yunpeng, the bill was vetoed by the State Council.
The presidential office and the State Council once again triggered a second battle between the government and the court because of the struggle for power, but this time the battle between the government and the court, neither side can take advantage. Wang Maoru did not help each other, but gradually collected power, waiting for the results of this year's provincial assemblies, and also waiting for Sun Wen to give him an answer. However, in Wang Maoru's heart, judicial independence is a way that any country must go through, even though it seems inefficient at first, but it artificially avoids the phenomenon of a place being manipulated by a leader to form a local overlord and an emperor.
Jin Yunpeng blocked his way, then kick Jin Yunpeng away, Wang Maoru is waiting for an opportunity, kick Jin Yunpeng away, kick Xu Shichang away. In fact, he really wants to be the dictator in his heart, but he can't rush for quick success, he is only thirty-five years old, and he is not in a hurry, he has time, and he is thirty-five years old, and he has enough status. What he lacks is an opportunity, a chance that will allow him to replace the president. (To be continued.) )
