Volume 5 Heavy Tree History Chapter 695 Thirty Minutes Prime Minister (I)
Amid the cheers of many ordinary people and surrounded by many senators and the House of Representatives, Wang Maoru's motorcade slowly arrived at the Capitol. Former President of the Capitol Xu Shichang personally stood in front of the steps of the National Assembly to greet him. Dozens of Chinese and foreign reporters were arranged on both sides of the steps, taking photos and recording this special historical moment of the Republic of China. When Wang Mao got off the car, he raised his head and saw this scene, and he was suddenly stunned, he didn't expect that President Xu Shichang would greet him in person at the foot of the steps. He was a little surprised, did Xu Shichang value himself so much, or did he have another purpose? He immediately smiled, ran over to Xu Shichang quickly, and saluted, "Your Excellency President, salute." ”
"Xiusheng, Xiusheng, congratulations, congratulations." Xu Shichang smiled enthusiastically and took Wang Maoru's hand and said, Liao Zhipeng, who was behind Xu Shichang, winked at Wang Maoru and laughed, and the government officials on the side applauded one after another, and the whole scene was warmly celebrated, a harmonious scene of officials.
Wang Maoru also smiled and said: "President, thanks to the care, Xiusheng is terrified, terrified." ”
"Without consulting you, I suddenly submitted to the National Assembly that you would be the interim prime minister, Xu is really helpless, Xiusheng, you have to bear more." Xu Shichang said.
Wang Maoru hurriedly said: "What does the president say, the seniors take care of the younger generations and hand over such a heavy burden to me, and the younger generations are very grateful." ”
Xu Shichang said with a smile: "I believe that Xiusheng can bear it, and I believe that even after the Double Ten Festival election, Xiusheng can also assume this responsibility." I am already old, and the affairs of the government still need to be undertaken by young people like Xiusheng, so that the country can prosper. ”
Wang Maoru said: "The president is so loving. Xiusheng was terrified. ”
Xu Shichang laughed, and the two waved to the reporters hand in hand, and the reporters took pictures one after another. A white reporter hurriedly took the notebook and asked, "May I ask Your Excellency the President of China, what is the reason for you to name General Wang as the premier?" ”
Xu Shichang is a former Qing Ju person, with a high attainment in Chinese studies, but he doesn't understand English, Wang Maoru translated on the side, Xu Shichang smiled: "I see the future of the country in Xiusheng, he is full of energy." With a clear mind, his talent is recognized by China and foreign countries, and even you Americans have never asked him to make magazine covers? I'm sure you're looking for it. Do you doubt it? Hahaha......" He pretended to smile freely, and the people around him echoed him.
Xu Shichang's praise made Wang Maoru very embarrassed, how could Wang Maoru personally translate to reporters with such boasting of his words, wouldn't that become Wang Po selling melons? Luckily, there is a full-time translator on the side. Immediately translate the president's words to Western journalists. Several reporters cheered.
Other reporters also wanted to ask questions, but Liao Zhipeng whispered that the people inside had been waiting for a long time, so Xu Shichang and Wang Maoru just smiled at everyone.
Walking to the last step of the steps of the Congress, Wang Maoru turned around and looked into the distance, and hundreds of thousands of citizens flocked to the front of the Congress, chanting the name of the generalissimo of Shangwu, which really made him a little fluttery. Of course, he immediately suppressed the affection, and now was not the time for him to be proud. The country had just been reunified, and it was not yet the moment when his regime would gain the benefits. The most important thing these days is not your own status. It was the stability of the country, and Wang Maoru followed Xu Shichang into the Capitol.
After entering the Capitol, the parliamentarians, reporters, and foreign visitors began to applaud, Wang Maoru looked at the crowd and sighed in his heart. After everyone was seated, President Xu Shichang stood on the rostrum of the National Assembly and announced the appointment of Wang Maoru as interim prime minister until October 10, when the results of the presidential election will decide whether to appoint another person. Xu Shichang has a trick here, whether to decide to appoint another person instead of having the new president inscribe. What he means is that if he Xu Shichang is the president, Wang Maoru will continue to serve as the president, and if someone else is not. Wang Maoru sat down below and could hear clearly, and naturally understood it, he smiled slightly, and Tang Shaoyi, the general director of the National Defense Force, sat next to him, and he whispered: "Father-in-law, what do you think?" ”
Tang Shaoyi said: "It's just a trick. Wang Maoru sent a secret telegram to Tang Shaoyi before getting on the plane to inform him of his own decision, and this time Tang Shaoyi was seated next to Wang Maoru as a guest of observation.
Wang Maoru said: "This person is known as the Beiyang Crystal Fox, and he really lives up to his name. ”
Tang Shaoyi smiled and said, "He can see it clearly." ”
Wang Maoru asked, "Father-in-law, it's time for you to move." ”
"What do you mean?" Tang Shaoyi asked suspiciously, but Wang Maoru smiled weirdly and didn't answer, which made Tang Shaoyi even more puzzled. Move? Tang Shaoyi was shocked in her heart, I will move by myself? Now Tang Shaoyi is the chairman of the board of directors of the National Defense Forces, which is a self-appointed official position, and was originally in charge of the provinces north of the Great Wall
The pace of Wang Maoru's Wehrmacht's southern invasion was already another small court.
When Xu Shichang announced that Wang Maoru would take up the post of interim premier, the audience immediately applauded, but many parliamentarians turned blue in this applause, and everyone sighed that the era of the military government had just ended, and it was coming again? Liang Qichao was so angry that he knocked on the table and said to Lin Changmin on the side: "How can it be like this, how can it be like this." Lin Changmin also smiled bitterly. Since the microphone was connected to more than 20 loudspeakers outside the Congress, the more than 100,000 admirers of Wang Maoru waiting outside the Congress and the Beijing citizens waiting for the results stretched out their ears to listen to the voices inside the Congress.
Amidst the applause, Wang Mao strode to the rostrum of the Central Committee of the Congress. Today, he is wearing a black officer's uniform, a black large-brimmed hat, and a five-colored star on his head, and he wears four medals issued by the National Defense Force, the first is the Battle Medal of Hulun City, the second is the Battle of Northeast Medal, the third is the Medal for Participating in the War in Europe, and the fourth is the Medal for Participating in the War in Russia. These four medals are extremely ordinary, and the soldiers who followed him in the battle have awarded these four medals, Wang Maoru's medals are exactly the same as the medals of the soldiers, and the medals made of brass of the old bullet casings seem to smell like gunsmoke, which he regards as treasures. A black straight military uniform, a white trouser line, a pair of riding boots on his feet, and a white cloak draped over his shoulders, a black and a white set off made his whole person look so solemn.
His eyebrows are heavy, his eyes are shining, and his straight nose shows his rigidity, and when he looks at the rostrum, he almost dares not look at each other, and that gaze seems to be able to see the bottom of people's hearts. Everyone has to admit that Wang Maoru has an unpredictable mysterious power, which makes him worshiped by others, making people think that he will burst out with infinite power to lead everyone. Even those who were hostile to him had to be convinced by him at this time, and suddenly there was an idea in their hearts that maybe he would be the prime minister, and he could really bring prosperity and prosperity to the country, although their ideas were different.
Some reporters hurriedly walked to the side to take shorthand, and everyone was ready to listen to Wang Maoru's speech, and the volume of the microphone was turned to the maximum, and more than 200,000 people outside the Congress were excitedly waiting to speak. More than half of them are young people who are extremely admirers of Wang Maoru, and they are eagerly looking forward to Wang Maoru's inaugural speech.
On the west side of the venue were invited guests, including Mr. Yukichi Kohata, Minister of Japan to China, Dr. Schulman, Minister of the United States to China, Sir Eston, British Ambassador to China, Mr. Made, Acting Minister of France to China, and Rogente, Ambassador of Mexico to China. Foreign ambassadors to China also whispered about whether this drastic change in China would be the beginning of a new military government.
Wang Maoru walked up and walked to the podium, adjutant Feng Yinbin helped him take off his cloak, and the rank of general on Wang Maoru's shoulders was revealed, and the highest military rank of the National Defense Force was only the rank of general, and all under him were the rank of general. Wang Maoru stood in front of the microphone, took a deep breath, tried the sound feeding, and heard a sound coming out, so he straightened his sleeves and straightened his body. He looked around again, smiled slightly, and began to speak.
"Whoa......
Before Wang Maoru could speak, the members of the National Assembly and some of the guests suddenly burst into applause, especially the members of the National Renaissance Party and the Youth Promotion Research Association. Inside the Capitol, the screams of frenzied admirers outside were constantly heard, almost piercing the roof, and everyone was feeling the pressure.
Hearing the cheers, Wang Maoru laughed, pressed his hands down, and the full range of parliamentarians quieted down again, his control of the atmosphere and the control of the congress made President Xu Shichang's face a little unsightly.
Wang Maoru's eyes swept in front of the eyes of the four hundred and forty-one parliamentarians and hundreds of guests, and he looked directly at everyone, everyone felt that he was looking at himself. Wang Maoru said in a crisp voice: "Thank you for your support, thank you for the nomination of President Xu Shichang, thank you for coming, and thank you for supporting me outside the Capitol Hill. I know that you are all here today to hear me take the oath of office as interim Prime Minister, but unfortunately I have not prepared a speech today. ”
Everyone looked at each other, and some people whispered, but the more than 200,000 young people outside did not feel that they stretched out their ears, waiting for Wang Maoru's next speech, and suddenly heard Wang Maoru say that he had not prepared a speech, which was very strange, so they whispered to each other. There is an issue that everyone is concerned about, that is, Wang Maoru announced his inauguration as prime minister. Of course, there are many supporters, opponents, people who watch the hilarity, and even people with ulterior motives. (To be continued.) )
