Volume 9 Undercurrents Surge Chapter 46 Watching the Fire from the Other Shore
The night was not peaceful. 【Full text reading】Wang Xiqing was shocked by the country and the country. Cang World Pei":
As the premier of the State Council of the Republic announced in Lidian that Gu Weimin, chairman of the plenary congress, would temporarily take over the post of yuan, almost everyone agreed. Wang Yuanqing has been assassinated.
It can be said that in this hurry, the feelings of the republic are complicated.
In the eyes of some people, Wang Yuanqing is the state with the most "war spirit" in the history of the Republic. Although Wang Yuanqing only fought one foreign war after taking office, and before him, Zhao Rundong fought two foreign wars, and Ji Youguo also fought two foreign wars, but compared with the previous two Yuanqing, the "Japanese War" instigated by Wang Yuanqing was not only larger in scale, but also had a more far-reaching impact. In the eyes of these people, Wang Yuanqing, who personally handled 100 million stone knives and 10,000 innocent Japanese civilians, was an out-and-out warmonger, even a war maniac!
In the eyes of some people, Wang Yuanqing is the most idealistic state in the history of the Republic. The political reform promoted by Wang Yuanqing not only pushed the reform action of the republic to a new peak, but also accomplished a feat that neither Ji Youguo nor Zhao Rundong had completed. Only an idealistic leader who is not afraid of difficulties and challenges will have such a great determination to carry out political reform in a republic with a particularly complex national situation. In the eyes of these people, Wang Yuanqing is the founder of a new era, and he is also the creator of the future republic.
Compared with the two extreme views, the vast majority of citizens of the Republic have a more objective understanding of Wang Yuanqing.
Externally, Wang Yuanqing was extremely tough, not only personally plotting the Japanese war, but also realizing national reunification. In the past few years, Wang Yuanqing has changed almost the entire world, making the Republic a world power on an equal footing with the United States in one fell swoop, and making the whole world look up to the Republic with admiration. Internally, Wang Yuanqing is determined to carry out reforms, not only actively promoting political reforms, but also deepening economic reforms in various ways and supporting private capital. In the past few years, Wang Yuanqing has almost changed the economic structure of the republic, making the private economy a real pillar of the country, and benefiting hundreds of millions of workers. Objectively speaking. Everything Wang Yuanqing did was to consider the future of the republic, the old billions of the republic, and the Chinese nation.
Although in some respects, Wang Yuanqing's methods are very extreme, and can even be said to be very ruthless, but from the perspective of the Chinese nation, Wang Yuanqing's approach is understandable, and the republic at this moment needs an iron-fisted leader like Wang Yuanqing.
The opinion of the overwhelming majority of the people determines the mood of the republic.
Grieved!
Any ordinary citizen knows that Wang Yuanqing is a catty. The leader of the Motherland who loves deeply, a pound. A leader who swears to serve the motherland to the death. Most of the people of the republic believe that by advancing in the direction of reform set by Wang Yuanqing, the republic will not only be able to make the country strong and the people prosperous, but also achieve long-term peace and stability.
Of course, not everyone grieves.
It's not that these people are glad that Wang Yuanqing was assassinated, but that they heard the news reports.
Neither in the national television report nor in the prime minister's speech did not mention the specific circumstances after Yuan's assassination, that is. There is no mention of whether Yuan was killed or wounded. Assassination is certain, but there is always a result of assassination, either death, injury, or safety. Now that the state has announced the news of Yuan's assassination, Yuan's situation should be clear and should not be vague in the report.
This problem is noted not only by some of the public instruments of the Republic, but also by foreign media.
This is clearly stated in its news reports. None of the official information released by the Republic of China has explained the circumstances after Wang Yuanqing's assassination, and it is impossible to prove whether Wang Yuanqing was killed or not. In any case, it is very abnormal for the official republican to actively announce the information without explaining the situation.
If Wang Yuanqing is assassinated, Gu Weimin should be sworn in immediately. A family cannot be without an owner for a day, and a country cannot be without a king for a day. The republic is engaged in a war, and if no one fulfills all the duties of the Yuan, even if Gu Weimin begins to perform the duties of the Yuan as the number one leader of the country, because he is not the head of the country, he cannot perform all his duties, such as not being able to issue strategic counterattack orders, and the Republic suddenly really has a strategic strike, even if the possibility is very small, it will encounter an unbearable disaster. Any nuclear power will develop a sound "tier-by-layer transfer system of power" for special circumstances. "For example, after the assassination of the President of the United States, the Vice President will be sworn in immediately, and the Republic must have a similar system, and when special circumstances have already arisen, there should be no delay!
If Wang Yuanqing was not killed, he was only injured. According to the correct way to deal with it, there should be no announcement of the news, or a clear mention that Wang Yuanqing is still alive and can still perform his duties, or that he is temporarily unable to perform his duties and needs to be temporarily replaced by the chairman of the committee, so as to fundamentally stabilize the people's will. Avoid serious riots. Considering that the Republic is engaged in a war, it is even more important to announce the relevant news as soon as possible so that the front-line soldiers can fight with peace of mind.
There is also a possibility that Wang Yuanqing did not die and was not injured. If so, Wang Yuanqing should appear in front of the public as soon as possible, so that the whole people know that Yuan is still alive. And live well, instead of deliberately confusing the public and disturbing the people's hearts.
According to... According to the analysis of the republic's official deliberately not announcing Wang Yuanqing's situation, there must be other plans. I have to admit it,... There is some truth in the analysis.
It is precisely for this reason that many news media, including major websites, have quoted Gang's report.
As the news spread, more and more citizens of the republic woke up from their grief.
At night, the whole world was watching this incident.
What happened to Wang Yuanqing?
Of course, the people who are most concerned about Wang Yuanqing's life and death are definitely not ordinary people.
Because the Republic announced the news at night Beijing time, it happened to be early in the morning in the United States.
Westwood didn't sleep all night, and neither did Brudrin, Dudgway, and Tomachi.
Before the official announcement of the republic. Westwood had Brooklyn explain to Dudgway what was going on. Until this time. Only then did Du Qiwei know that this was a good thing for the four companies.
There was no doubt that Dudgway's reaction was very emotional.
In Dudgway's words, it's child's play!
Even if China fails to grasp the handle of the four, it cannot regard the subversive actions of the four as the war actions of the United States, and it will not be able to declare war on the United States on this basis, and it will still push China to the absolute opposite of the United States because of this subversive action. There is no room for reconciliation in the contradictions between China and the United States!
When Westwood asks for countermeasures. Duchway said only one word: prepare for war.
It is not a war that explodes immediately, nor a war that explodes in a few years, but a full-scale war between China and the United States more than ten years later, or decades later!
Whether Wang Yuanqing dies or not, this incident will allow China to begin preparations for all-out war.
Thomas did not agree with Duchway's statement, but believed that China would not be crazy enough to go to war with the United States. According to Tom Ma Brain, China has also engaged in the same "subversive activities" against the United States, and it has long been proved that the death of former President Japel has a lot to do with China, and even the CIA single-handedly planned the Camp David bombing. Subsequently, China also managed to bring down the Lobian government, causing the Democratic Party to suffer the biggest scandal in history. China does this, and the United States remains silent. Well, if the United States has done this, China should also remain "sensibly" silent.
This argument not only did not convince Du Qiwei, but also made Du Qiwei think that Tang Ma brain is a catty. Out-and-out idiots.
Is China the United States?
At the beginning, China did not directly attack the US president and the US federal government, but took advantage of the contradictions between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. In order to safeguard the interests of political parties. Naturally, the new president of the United States will swallow his anger. What's more. There is a big difference between the political systems of China and the United States, and the United States can deal with problems rationally, and China can also use another "rational" way to deal with problems. According to Dudgway, it is to prepare for all-out war, for a world war, from now on. As long as the Chinese regime can maintain coherence, China will be able to prepare for war for decades. The U.S. regime cannot maintain coherence, and it is impossible for it to defeat China in a decades-long military race.
The two fought fiercely, and neither refused to admit the other's point of view.
Westwood had expected this for a long time. Otherwise, he wouldn't have hidden it from Du Qiwei in the first place.
It turned out that Duchway would never support covert subversive operations. According to the thinking of other soldiers, there is only one way to defeat China, and that is to defeat China in an open and honest manner, instead of engaging in petty tricks.
Of course, in the end, Du Qiwei and Tom Ma Brain did not fight for a reason.
Westwood doesn't care about the "Sino-American war" a few years later, he only cares about one thing. That is the specific situation of Wang Yuanqing, and the impact it has.
It was Brooklyn who could help.
According to Brooklyn's analysis, there are only two possibilities. First, Wang Yuanqing is dead, and it is kept secret in order to smoothly complete the transition of power, and when Gu Weimin officially takes power, China will announce the news of Wang Yuanqing's assassination. The second is that Wang Yuanqing is safe and sound, and no news will be released for the time being. It was because the traitorous group had not been completely eradicated and Gu Weimin was in front of him that Wang Yuanqing could come to the rescue at a critical moment. In Brooklyn's opinion, if Wang Yuanqing was only injured. He should come forward immediately, stabilize the situation first, let the outside world know that he is still alive, and then consider other things after stabilizing the situation.
The former means that the action of four is successful. Zhongxian is sure to go through a period of political turmoil.
The latter means that the operation of the four is a complete failure, and China will soon react unexpectedly.
As a result of the completely different results, the United States cannot immediately express its views and attitudes, and if it makes a mistake, it is very likely that it will play into the hands of the Chinese Government and put the United States in a difficult situation. If the United States is involved in this way, the result is very likely to be even worse than what Duchway said, and the Sino-US war will immediately break out.
Finally, Brooklyn suggested a strategy of watching the fire from the other side.
Brooklyn's analysis was comprehensive, and it was also reassuring to Westwood. He also knew the root cause of Brooklyn's decision, that is, that the military operation in southern Tibet would end in a few days, regardless of the circumstances. The Chinese government will make the facts public.
